KINGSVILLE — Hundreds of parade lovers bundled up for the colder night-time air and lined the streets of Kingsville on Saturday night, November 20 for the 18th Annual Santa Claus Parade. It was the first traditional parade for the area since the pandemic, with more than 75 entries, including a marching band, numerous floats, local charities, the new Kingsville Express electric train and of course Santa and Mrs. Claus arriving at the

The parade began on Main Street East and continued to Lakeside Park where Santa — with the help of several youngsters — flipped the switch to turn on the 29th Annual Fantasy of Lights, which was followed by a fireworks display.

By Greg Coulter WHEATLEY — After many months of uncertainty, Wheatley residents and businesses have begun the process of being granted access to their properties. Safety crews were on hand Wednesday, November 17 at prearranged selected residences. With the safety of all parties the primary concern, the green light was given for five property owners to enter their buildings. Work crews could also be seen up and down Foster Avenue throughout the day on Thursday as trucks and trailers were loaded

Safety crews and contractors joined homeowners Brittany Dundas and Dan Amlin as they accessed their property first thing Thursday morning. Appliances were removed by restoration contractors while the homeowners were allowed entry to remove any valuable items within a one-hour time frame. Officials were on hand at all

times to monitor air quality and deal with any unexpected safety issues. Gas monitoring continues through the entire evacuation site during the ongoing retrieval process. If any reading of a dangerous level of air quality throughout the entire evacuation zone is present, notification is sent to the nearby fire officials. Three blasts of the fire truck’s whistle signifies that all parties must evacuate to the outer perimeter immediately. Brittany and Dan were quick to point out that everyone was very

They were grateful that the municipality and insurance company were able to coordinate with their assistance. They hope that everyone has a similar experience to what they have had. “Everyone did a great job, and we were able to leave our home with a little less weight on our shoulders,” they said.

Housing costs can also be applied for at a later date and are reviewed monthly. Households can apply directly to the province once they receive the application, or case managers can assist them with the application in person or over the phone.

were part of this process. There were no major issues with the 13 properties accessed Wednesday, although one had water in the basement. On Thursday, five homeowners were allowed to enter their homes that were deemed safe from Wednesday’s evaluation. In addition to the homeowner, representatives included an insurance agent, contractor for winterization, and movers to assist with refrigerators and freezer removal. The municipality has also requested permission to remove and dispose of refrigerators and freezers. After several months without hydro, these appliances need to be disposed of rather than cleaned. The provincial financial assistance provides funds to replace furnishings. In some cases, property owners have authorized their insurance agent access to inspect the home and winterize the property with the support of trades people. The municipality is taking the lead in the overall management of this, including the coordination and safety aspects of the project. Insurance companies

are involved if the business or homeowners want them involved. Each household and business can also designate two people to retrieve items that are important or that they need, within a one-hour time frame. Wheatley BIA Disaster Relief Fund According to Lauren Anderson, the total amount donated by the community to the Wheatley Disaster Relief Community Fund is just shy of $225,000. “We have been able to give over $100,000 back to displaced residents and businesses,” she said. “Anyone that has applied

for the funds has received money. Further, through household donations we have been able to outfit several rental, hotel and other situational places where displaced residents are staying.” All applicants will receive a letter from the committee to learn more about them and seek out if there are any other immediate needs they require. Community represetatives Lauren Anderson, Kim Grant and Erika Renwick meet with CK, family social services and the province twice a week to ensure the needs and concerns of affected residents are addressed and advo-

cated for. “That’s good news about the provincial funding,” said Anderson. “This funding from the government will surely assist everyone very much.” The committee encourages the community to continue to donate so that once this situation is resolved and everyone allowed back to their homes, they can assist further with any needs that the governments or insurance may not cover. “The support from the Wheatley community has been so overwhelming and heartwarming,” added Anderson.

year. The Goodfellows will then sort the collected food and distribute to the needy on Saturday, December 18. The Goodlfellows are still looking for volunteers for the basket program. Volunteers must be adults who are fully vaccinated and can wear a mask while working with other volunteers. If you’d like to volunteer, please call 226-7828334. In 2020, the Goodfellows were forced to pivot as the COVID-19 cases started to rise dramatically. They cancelled the Christmas Basket program and gave all those needy families who applied a grocery gift card. They gave out about 200 gift cards to families in 2020. Now with 2021 appearing to be a little less frightening Covid-wise, the Goodfellows are poised to continue their basket program, which will see each recipient family get a turkey along with canned goods and produce. There are still two days left to apply for this

year’s Christmas Basket program. You can stop in at the Leamington Municipal Building on Thursday, November 25 and Tuesday, November 30 from 1 to 4 pm and apply in per-

son. About 15 companies and businesses have donated goods for the baskets. The Goodfellows are also looking for cash donations. You can drop off

cash in their designated box at the Leamington Post Office or mail a cheque to Leamington Goodfellows, P.O. Box 242, Leamington, Ontario N8H 2P6.

THE GIFT CK A SUCCESS

WHEATLEY — The citizens of Wheatley were again called upon to help those less fortunate and they came through with flying colours. As part of a Chatham-Kent wide program, The Gift CK, a contingent of over 30 volunteers took to the streets around town and garnered a haul of food, toys and household items. All donated items remain in the immediate community with items going to the food bank and Community Chest. This Wheatley-Based group was among hundreds of volunteers combing the streets of Chatham-Kent on Saturday, November 20. Quinn Bowman, holding his trusted helper Micky, stands with a portion of happy helpers and volunteers as they celebrate another successful campaign to help those in need in the community.

Local photographer's creations to benefit Hospice For the second year in a row, a Leamington woman has turned her hobby into a fundraiser for the Hospice Erie Shores Campus. Linda Enns started taking photos of nature and animals a couple of years ago and last year launched her first fundraising calendar. “I want to give back what my family received from the hospice,” says Linda Enns. Linda’s husband Dave passed away in June of 2016, only three weeks after the hospice opened, and Linda and her family received the utmost care during Dave’s short time there. “It was a compassionate, caring, loving and heart-warming experience,” said Linda. She took a year to get ready and then began volunteering at the hospice.

Yes, horror movies are my thing Those who know me well, know that I’ve been a life-long horror movie fan. Seldom these days, does a horror film come along that impresses me. I can only think of a couple off the top of my head. The first of the Conjuring movies had an old-time feel to it and that’s probably why I liked it. The purpose of these movies is to give you a scare. My wife hates them. She asks the question, “Why would you pay money to see a movie that scares you?” Well, I guess the answer to that is for the same reason people ride roller coasters or jump out of airplanes. I’m a whimp when it comes to heights and things that go round-and-round. My thrill then I guess would be scary movies. My scary movie fandom began in the

early 1960s when I was just a young whipper-snapper, watching Bill Kennedy At The Movies and the Rita Bell Prize Movie alongside my mother on our old black-and-white Zenith TV. We got maybe seven or eight channels in those days, so choices were limited. The first horror film I remember catching my attention was The Birds. Good old Alfred Hitchcock knew how to scare people without really trying and The Birds certainly made me afraid to go outside for awhile. All of those seagulls in their blackand-white splendour made me cringe as they descended upon that little town and terrorized Tippi Hedren. I remember watching a movie called Picture Mommy Dead (what an uplifting title) starring Zsa Zsa Gabor early on in my horror film fandom.

During hot summer weather I would carry a thermos of water under the seat so I could have it on the long drive home from the warehouse. We installed a big old radio under the dash, which picked up all the noise from the ignition. “Since my dad’s work car had to be available for work even when he was on his two-week holiday, the Envoy was the family’s vacation vehicle.

Letter to Editor

Santa parade was awesome Dear Editor: Wow, wow, wow! It was a night to remember as all of Kingsville stepped up to the plate with over 75 entries including floats, marching bands, fire trucks, lit bicycles and scooters, horses, dogs and of course Santa. The sea of families that attended were not disappointed! The Kingsville Fire Department collected toys and donations en route, along with the food bank volunteers who filled their shopping

carts with non-perishable items. Don’t forget, you can still make your donations. The streets were jammed with spectators anxiously awaiting and enjoying the festivities. My husband Adrian and I were marshaling at four corners, taking in all the action firsthand before heading to Lakeside Park for the Fantasy of Lights show and unbelievable fireworks that ended with cheers and a huge round of applause. It was by

far Kingsville’s best Santa Claus parade and I’m proud to say I’m a Kingsville resident. Kudos to Tony Gaffan, Karen Loney and their hard working committee members, the Town of Kingsville, OPP, Fire Department, the sponsors, and all the volunteers and spectators who made this evening so spectacular!

Children ages 5-11 vaccinations start Thursday

WINDSOR/ESSEX — Children 5 to 11 years of age are now eligible to receive the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 (Comirnaty) vaccine in Canada. Locally, appointment slots at the Devonshire Mall mass vaccination clinic are now available with the first appointments taking place Thursday, November 25. According to Dr. Shanker Nesathurai, the region’s Medical Officer of Health, expanding access to the vaccine for this younger age group will help the community to take the next step in its

battle against COVID-19. “In the past month alone, Windsor-Essex County has had 96 school cohort dismissals and 136 infections in school-aged children,” said Dr. Nesathurai. “Vaccination for this 5-11 age group is an integral part of the strategy to reduce the burden of disease on the community and will directly impact the potential for students to remain in school for in-person learning, and further limit the opportunity for this virus to spread.” Health Unit Chief Executive Officer, Nicole Du-

puis, acknowledges that there may be some apprehension amongst parents in getting their children vaccinated and strongly encourages anyone who has questions to seek help from reliable sources, like the health unit’s website or a healthcare provider. “With the rigorous testing and approval processes required, parents have nothing to worry about,” she said. “Any vaccine or medication has the potential for side-effects; however, serious side effects after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, such as allergic reactions, are

Chatham-Kent to start Saturday

C H AT H A M - K E N T — The Ontario government has announced that youth aged 5-11 are now eligible to receive the Pfizer Bio-NTech (Comirnaty) COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. This vaccine will be available as of Saturday, November 27 to Chatham-Kent youth born in 2016 or earlier. Booking for this age group was open as of Tuesday, November 23. CK Public Health, who have long been entrusted with protecting Cha-

tham-Kent youth through vaccinations, will be transforming their Bradley Centre Clinic at 565 Richmond Street in Chatham into a youth-friendly environment. Super Kid themed activity sheets, decorations and music will assist in creating a safe, welcoming and supportive clinic experience for young people. Youth attending their appointment are encouraged to dress up like the Super Kids they are, while remembering to keep access to the upper

arm easy and avoid wearing masks that cover the upper face. For those interested, CK Public Health will be hosting a Live Question and Answer on Thursday, November 25 at 7:00 pm. Pre-submitted questions will be accepted through CKPHUcommunications@chatham-kent.ca and will also be fielded live during the event. To book an appointment for your child, visit www.GetYourShotCK.ca or call 519-351-1010.

extremely rare and can be treated.” The health unit has added a new section to their website with further information and resources for young people and their parents to learn more about the vaccine, potential side effects, and a link to a free COVID-19 Vaccine Consult service from Sick Kids Hospital where parents can speak to a trained pediatric nurse in order to have their questions answered by a trusted professional. Appointments are available now and can be

booked by following the links on the health unit’s website at wechu.org or by calling 226-773-2200. Children who are newly eligible must be accompanied by their custodial parent or guardian to receive a vaccine and will be required to present a health card or other form of identification. All eligible groups are encouraged to contact participating pharmacies, healthcare providers, or to drop in at one of the community pop-up vaccination clinics to get their vaccine.

Leamington-born author publishes first book LEAMINGTON — A locally born-and-raised author is about to hit the bookshelves with her first book and she’s excited to share the news with readers. Lynda Ware has had a love of creative writing since she was eight years old. She graduated with a degree in journalism. After a 35-year policing support career, she decided to follow her writing dream. That dream was put on hold for about five years while she paused to help establish the Windsor Essex Child/Youth Advoca-

cy Centre. Now turning her attention to writing, she’s produced her first work, called The Princess Warrior — Ascension into the 5th Dimension. She has enlisted the help of Friesen Press, a Manitoba-based publisher, who is set to release The Warrior Princess in the coming days. The book took about a year to get to print. Ware is writing under a pseudonym as JCM SEDNA, and she explained in an interview with The Sun how she came up with the

“The JCM stands for Just Call Me, so just call me SEDNA,” she laughs. The Princess Warrior tells the tale of a princess warrior who is a master of universal law, born with a life purpose to teach, inspire and protect the Wise Ones — 22 wise souls who take human form while embarking on this journey to teach universal consciousness and unconditional love. The Princess Warrior guides these young knowledge seekers on a quest that is mystical, magical and at times — challenging. The story follows the Princess Warrior as she faces the challenges in protecting and teaching the Wise Ones long enough for them to take

zon and Barnes and Noble. It is available now directly from the publisher at Friesen Press. As an e-book, you can order from Apple Books, Google Play, Kobo, Kindle and Nook. Ware is also looking for any local book clubs who may wish to read her book and offer a review. “They just need to contact me and I’ll get them a book,” she said. Supplies are very limited for that purpose, but she’d like to share her story with groups that like to read. To contact her, you can visit jcmsedna.com, find her on Facebook at facebook.com/JCM.SEDNA or on Instagram at @JCM. SEDNA.

Kenneth Lowes

September 2, 1931 – November 14, 2021

Myrt Varga

Sadly, Kenneth Lowes passed away after a brief illness. He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Shirley (nee Tate). Mourning his passing are his children, Jon and his wife Carolyn of Calgary, Alberta; Richard and his wife Kris of Leamington; Sharon and her husband Ron Jones of Kingsville. Grandfather of Amanda, Dylan, Lucas and Rebecca. The youngest of three, Ken was predeceased by his brothers Gordon and Dave. Also left to remember Ken are several nieces, nephews and extended family and friends. Born and raised on the family farm in Kent County, Ken moved to Leamington to open Leamington Glass in 1959. He owned and operated it for over 50 years before his son took over the reins. He supported and sponsored youth sport in Leamington and enjoyed opportunities to work with the Flyers hockey alumni. He could often be found in the kitchen during charity fundraisers putting his wellknown culinary skills to good use. His wry sense of humour brought many a laugh. He will be greatly missed by family and friends. A private family burial will take place at Church of the Epiphany Cemetery. A summer celebration of Ken’s life is planned for friends and family. Arrangements entrusted to Kendrick Funeral Home, Kingsville. If you wish, memorial donations would be appreciated to Erie Shores Health Foundation, 194 Talbot St. W., Leamington, ON N8H 1N9 or to a charity of your choice.

LOCAL SOLDIERS IDENTIFIED

LEAMINGTON — Back in June of this year, Colin and Debbie MacPherson brought a photo into the Sun office, asking for help in identifying the local soldiers in the photo.

IN MEMORIAM In memory of a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother & friend

CRAIG McCARTY October 1, 1949 - November 24, 1999

Remember him with a smile today, he was not one for tears. Reflect instead on memories of all the happy years. Recall to mind the way he spoke, and all the things he said. His strength, his stance, the way he walked - remember this instead. The good advice he'd give us, his eyes that shone with laughter. So much of him will never die, but live on forever after. Always in our thoughts. Forever in our hearts. Love, your family

November is Falls Prevention Month

In Canada, a senior falls every 12 seconds. Of these falls, 67% sustain life-threatening injuries if they do not receive help within 72 hours. There are a number of factors that can increase your risk of falling. Chronic health conditions and lifestyle factors, along with a lack of knowledge on ways to prevent a fall, can increase your risk of experiencing a fall. Arthritis: Can result in decreased muscle strength and balance. Weakened muscles make steady, confident movement more difficult, increasing your risk of falling. Take extra time and think ahead, especially in new or unfa-

miliar places. Obesity: Can make exercise more difficult, and limiting exercise leads to weak legs that in turn increase the risk of falling. Exercise regularly. Regular, moderate physical activity increases your muscle strength and balance. Functional Limitations: Any condition that limits mobility (for example, pain, injury, physical/ emotional conditions) also increases your fall risk. Wear well fitting, study, low-heeled shoes with rubber soles for traction. Take extra care in snow and ice. Talk honestly with your health care provider about your health concerns.

Fear of Falling: Fear results in less movement, which can lead to increased risk of falling when you do move. Talk with your health care provider about your fears and any experience you have with dizziness or balance. There may be recommendations to help you walk more safely and get up correctly from a fall. Multiple Medications: Taking many different medications can increase fall risk. Know the reason for taking each of your medications as well as the side effects. Talk with your pharmacist or health care provider about possible medication interactions and side effects that

can put you at increased risk for falling. High Blood Pressure: Can cause dizziness and feeling light-headed which can interfere with balance, coordination and vision. When you rise from your chair, stand for a few seconds before walking. Diabetes: Common complications of diabetes can increase fall risk. Work with your health care provider to manage your diabetes. Eat a healthy diet. Test your blood sugar as recommended. Good nutrition improves your energy level and decreases your risk of diabetes related complications.

ESHC and physicians collaborate to integrate end-of-life care ESSEX COUNTY – Erie Shores HealthCare (ESHC) has formed a partnership with palliative care physicians within Windsor and Essex County that will result in an integrated approach to endof-life care for the 110,000 residents who live within the hospital’s geographic catchment area. Palliative care physicians who also work at the Hospice of Windsor and Essex County will now be granted hospital privileges at Erie Shores HealthCare, allowing them to confer with ESHC’s inpatient units and emergency

department physicians on treatment plans for patients. They will provide improved symptom management for patients with end-of-life diagnoses, complex goals of care discussions, and end-oflife disposition planning, among other things. This collaborative approach helps patients and their loved ones deal with challenging end-of-life issues. “This is a wonderful development for the patients of ESHC. These expert palliative care physicians will assist ESHC in our persistent efforts to pro-

vide the best care for patients, while also helping patients and their families cope with the many burdens of serious illness,” said Dr. Ross Moncur,

Chief of Professional Staff, Erie Shores HealthCare. “As our hospital’s catchment area grows, we see this relationship as an extraordinary service in our

ongoing effort to improve access to specialized treatment and care for patients” said Kristin Kennedy, President and CEO, Erie Shores HealthCare.

“This is just one of the initiatives we are pursuing to enhance our capacity to provide outstanding care close to home.”

Gnome Sweet Gnome in Wheatley WHEATLEY — A unique gnome hunt will keep Wheatley residents busy in the coming weeks as their first annual Gnome Sweet Gnome Hunt will take place from December 6 through December 18. Families are invited to drive the streets of

Wheatley and search for 19 gnomes and one Santa that have been strategically placed throughout the village. About 19 local families have volunteered to light up their properties and make the gnome hunt a reality. As you drive through

the village streets, jot down the addresses where you see the gnomes and submit them on paper in the ballot box at Ciliska Excavating, 485 Erie Street South.

Three prizes will be awarded, all sponsored by Johnston Net & Twine and Ciliska Excavating. The event is being organized by Jenelle Livingstone.

Looking back

From the Leamington Post November 27, 1985 Park officials have seen no evidence of deer poaching by bow within Point Pelee National Park, but procedures have been implemented to reduce the possibility. Park Superintendent Jim Barlow said hours will be shifted so a warden is now on duty all night and a closer watch will be kept at the park gate. Barlow said he’s seen no evidence of bow hunting, because deer hit with a bow don’t usually drop in their tracks. They would leave quite a blood trail. —— As quickly as the danger arose, it dropped for east beach residents in Mersea Township on Friday morning. At about 5:30 am, residents of Cotterie Park and Marentette Beach were contacted by phone to warn of the rising water and waves. One resident at Cotterie Park noted that a section of steel breakwall that was to be welded soon had been ripped away by the storm. Mersea Police Chief Ardell McIntyre said the police service received word Thursday night that the waves would cause damage. By noon it had subsided. —— It was a time to say farewell to three members of Mersea Township Council last week. Reeve Harry Klassen, councillors John Dick and Donald Wilkinson were attending their final council session before leaving municipal life. The occasion was especially difficult for Mr. Dick, who has been a councillor since 1969. The new Reeve is Clair Cowan and the Deputy Reeve is newcomer Gerry Terron, along with councillors John Adams, Herb Enns and Robert Schmidt. —— The last of Leamington’s Christmas lights were installed last week in anticipation of the upcoming holiday season. Jerry Martin of Martin Electric spent three days installing the decorative displays at the Mill Street Parking lot. The lights were paid for by the BIA. —— The Leamington Flyers, tired of being upset in the final minutes of recent games, pulled the same trick on the Petrolia Jets on Thursday at the arena here. Two goals in the third period lifted the Flyers into a 3-3 tie with the Jets and with any luck, Leamington could have won the game, but had to settle for the tie. Mike Dunmore, Rob Hickson and Mark Weil scored the Flyers’ goals. The game was marred by a donnybrook midway through the second period, sparked by a late hit by Rick Wright. But it was the Jets’ Larry Ciccarelli who got the boot for being the aggressor. Phil Towle also picked up a double game misconduct for his role. —— CHYR 7 presents Superstars of Wrestling on Friday, November 29 at the Leamington Portuguese Club at 7:30 pm.

NOTICE Bridge Replacement: Wheatley Provincial Park, Chatham-Kent

Notice of Intention to Proceed The Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) is seeking comments on its intention to proceed with plans to replace the Two Creeks pedestrian bridge at Wheatley Provincial Park. The park is located on Lake Erie approximately 13 kilometers east of Leamington. This work is being undertaken as the bridge has exceeded its lifespan and replacement is necessary to ensure public and staff safety. Minimal negative environmental impacts are anticipated. The project evaluation met the requirements for a Category B project in the Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves (Class EA) on August 19th, 2014, with the filing of a Statement of Completion. The Class EA requires that a new notice must be issued if more than five years elapse between completion of the process and the start of construction. The project has undergone minor modifications including scope, construction material, and timing and the Ministry now wishes to proceed. To obtain the Record of Screening, to discuss the project, or to submit comments, please contact: Jocelyn Kearney, Assistant Park Planner Ontario Parks – Southwest Zone Office 659 Exeter Road, 4th Floor London, ON N6E 1L3 Phone: 519-851-1795 Email: jocelyn.kearney@ontario.ca Interested persons may provide written comments to our project team by December 24th, 2021. All comments and concerns should be sent directly to Jocelyn Kearney at Ontario Parks. In addition, a request may be made to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks for an order requiring a higher level of study (i.e. requiring an individual/comprehensive EA approval before being able to proceed), or that conditions be imposed (e.g. require further studies), only on the grounds that the requested order may prevent, mitigate or remedy adverse impacts on constitutionally protected Aboriginal and treaty rights. Requests on other grounds will not be considered. Requests should include the requester contact information and full name. Requests should specify what kind of order is being requested (request for conditions or a request for an individual/comprehensive environmental assessment), how an order may prevent, mitigate or remedy potential adverse impacts on Aboriginal and treaty rights, and any information in support of the statements in the request. This will ensure that the ministry is able to efficiently begin reviewing the request. The request should be sent in writing or by email to: Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks 777 Bay Street, 5th Floor Toronto ON M7A 2J3 minister.mecp@ontario.ca

Director, Environmental Assessment Branch Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks 135 St. Clair Ave. W, 1st Floor Toronto ON, M4V 1P5 EABDirector@ontario.ca

Requests should also be copied to Jocelyn Kearney by mail or by e-mail. Please visit the ministry’s website for more information on requests for orders under section 16 of the Environmental Assessment Act at: https://www.ontario.ca/page/class-environmental-assessments-part-ii-order All personal information included in your request – such as name, address, telephone number and property location – is collected, under the authority of section 30 of the Environmental Assessment Act and is collected and maintained for the purpose of creating a record that is available to the general public.

Flyers’ rivalry with Lincolns intensifies

By C. Scott Holland It has been 19 months since the St. Marys Lincolns and Leamington Flyers last faced each other. During that long spell, the rivalry between the two clubs has clearly intensified. The Flyers won their first two meetings with the Lincolns with both contests being played in St. Marys earlier this season. But the Thursday night, Nov. 18, match here in Leamington was the first between the two clubs since the very last game of the 2019-20 campaign. The game itself was like watching two titans in a joust. They traded physical checks, had glorious scoring opportunities, and featured stellar goaltending and end-to-end action. Special teams did not play any part in the scoring as the Lincolns rode a late third-period tally to edge the Flyers 2-1 in regulation time. Lincolns’ starting goalie Bryce Walcarius and the Flyers’ Ryan Polidori each halted 31 shots. The key play of the contest occurred in the opening frame at 12:30 when Leamington forward Noah Prudhomme was skating in the neutral zone away from the penalty box area and heading toward centre ice. Out of nowhere, Lincs’ player Kieran Moore bore down on Prudhomme and kneed him hard. Prudhomme dropped to the ice in pain. Moore was assessed a five-minute kneeing penalty plus game misconduct for his action and Flyer Colton O’Brien was handed a two-minute slashing call which limited the Flyers’ powerplay opportunity. At 12:30, Andrew Uturo and Seth Martineau hooked up with Jack Cotter who deftly rifled a high shot that sailed into the top corner of the Lincs’ net for a 1-0 lead. That precious one-goal lead lasted until midway through the second period when Lincolns’ Ethan Lamoureux’s screen shot bounded off Polidori and tied the game. As the rivalry increased, so did the tempers. Ref Shawn Hamelin gave a warning to both captains at the end of the second after a brief flare-up in the final minute of play. From that juncture, both teams had moments when it appeared they would surge ahead but the goaltenders and defenses helped keep the slate even. The Lincolns got the go-ahead tally at 15:20 when Ryan Cooper plucked a loose puck and drilled a shot over Polidori who had lost his balance while lunging to snare the puck. Down 2-1 in the final minute, the Flyers lifted Polidori but were unable to gain the equalizer.

Head coach Dale Mitchell wasn’t too concerned about Thursday’s outcome and said, “I thought we were okay. We generated a lot of chances; however, we could not score. Our PP was not dangerous and unable to finish. When you leave teams hanging around it tends to end badly and that’s how it went as we gave up the late goal. Then it was too late for us to recover after that.” On Saturday the club traveled to Komoka where they played the Kings and won 5-3. The contest in Komoka was “one of our best five-onfive games of the year,” according to Coach Mitchell. The Flyers’ defense showed its strength as they had to kill off two separate five-on-threes. The head coach added,“We need to be more disci-

plined and take less penalties, but they did everything asked of them and deserved the win. If we play solid five-on-five like Saturday night, we will have lots more success as the season continues.” The game did have one long delay in the third when a pane of glass broke and had to be replaced. Scoring for the Flyers were Gabe Piccolo (2), Ryan MacPherson, Gavin Grundner and Wyatt O’Neil. Starter Boe Piroski halted 31 shots to gain the win and now has a 5-0 record with a 1.80 goals against average. The victory also vaulted the Flyers back into second place. The Flyers next home game is Thursday, Nov. 25 versus LaSalle at 7:10 p.m.

Sharks bounce back with two wins By Greg Coulter A season long commitment to discipline and hard work paid huge dividends to the Wheatley Omstead Sharks over the past week. After suffering a string of heartbreaking losses, the team responded with two defensive gems while getting their scoring untracked. Over the span of the last three games, the goaltenders managed to shut the door for over 126 minutes, narrowly missing back-to-back shutouts. A balanced home effort against Petrolia Flyers saw the Sharks with a dominating performance, firing 47 shots on net while limiting the opposition to 23, including a season-low four shots against in a shutdown third period. The Sharks won 3-0. Offensive stalwart Dallas Anderson led the way with two markers

Pet of the Week FLOYD

Wednesday, November 24, 2021

Floyd - 1 year old - Male - Olde English Bulldog / Shar-Pei mix. Hello! My name is Floyd and I am looking for my forever home. I am a young, strong guy with lots of energy and lots to learn still. I’m pretty unaware of my size and might jump all over ya. I’m just the life of the party and want to be involved in all your fun activities! Luckily in my previous home my owners took amazing care of me and helped me work on lots of training, so I do come with some skills. There are still other things I need to work on, and my strength is one of them. I also get spooked by certain things (like wheels.... UGH I hate em. They move so fast and are so strange to me). Also, the wind... man oh man is the wind ever scary!! I would like a predictable home with humans that will help properly socialize me and work on helping me the bestest most successful guy around! While I do need work on some things, I am very food motivated and the humans here rave about the great potential that I have. I cannot go to a home with children because we really aren’t the best of friends, so an adult only home would be best. I’m okay with other dogs but come on veryyyyy strong, so would need a dog who is tolerant and able to deal with my eagerness. I have never been around cats but used to live with rabbits and did well with them. Overall, I truly am a great guy and know I will make someone very happy! Visit windsorhumane.org today to apply to adopt me!

ing,”Our first clean sheet of the season on our first game was a result of a complete 60-minute game. It was a good week for us offensively and defensively. Good energy all week. The guys are starting to respond nicely to our coaching philosophy, and we look to keep the ball rolling into our next stretch of mustwin games. We have a week off to fine tune and get ready for the December push.” The Sharks next home game is December 1 when Blenheim returns for a rematch.

a 2-0 lead after two and took over completely in the third. Shots were even on the night, but the opposition netminder was no match for the tenacity of the Sharks’ attack. Ashton Anderson (2G1A) and Shannon Olson (2G) led the way with Matt Carvalho driving home a single marker. Dallas Anderson (2), Liam Sinasac, Braedon Caetano, Denzel Aguilar, Devin St. Pierre and Braydon Davis added helpers. Ethan Handley shut the door until the final minutes of the game. Coach Carnevale was extremely pleased, add-

Southpoint U10 defeats Riverside, Sarnia On Saturday, Nov. 13 the Southpoint Capitals hosted the Riverside Rangers. It was Riverside who found the back of net first; however, the dynamic duo of Conner Blain and Brody Church responded by turning up the heat with three goals and two assists between them. With seven seconds left on the clock, Southpoint wasn’t done yet. Carter Demant found Drake Pernal who buried a goal to end the period with a 4-2 lead. The Capitals kept their

foot on the gas in the second period with Jordyn Lefaive and Brady George digging pucks and driving hard. Christian Rutgers and Asher Grossi executed a textbook two-on-one for Asher’s goal, followed by Eddie Zieba who scored fresh off the bench on a feed from Zander Cook. The third period saw goals added by Rutgers, Pernal and Blain. Southpoint shut the door on the Riverside offense, keeping them scoreless in the second and third periods. Blain’s scorecard inked an impressive five goals

and seven total pointsSouthpoint finished with a commanding 11-2 win. On Saturday, Nov. 20, Southpoint hosted the Sarnia Jr. Sting for an exhibition game. Early saves by Keegan Pope led to an offensive rush and a first goal by Conner Blain within the first 50 seconds of play. Within the next 15 seconds, Asher Grossi found the blade of Ben Macquarrie who netted the Caps’ second goal. Before the end of the first period, Ashton Drodz corralled the puck in his end and went the full

length of ice to score his first goal of the season. The Caps went on to add three goals in the second period, one from Grossi, assisted by Cook, one by Church, unassisted, and another by Blain, unassisted. The lone goal in the third period was scored by Christian Rutgers, helping the Caps finish with a commanding 7-3 win. This week’s lineup includes Friday at Erie Northshore and Saturday at home versus Windsor.

Leamington Sr. Men’s hockey returns after one-week absence

By C. Scott Holland After a week of no action due to two broken Zambonis, the Leamington Senior Men’s Hockey League resumed play. Gillett Roofing topped Gabriele Home and Floor 7-5 while Gualtieri Farms squeaked past Leamington Chrysler

Kir and Pete Neufeld gunned one each.

Gualtieri 4 Chrysler 3 (shootout) These two teams engaged in a close battle and nothing was decided in overtime. In the shootout, Gualtieri slotted two to win the con-
