By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — With the provincial government’s announcement last week emphasizing the need for increased testing for COVID-19, Erie Shores HealthCare has responded to provide assessments for residents of Essex County.

On Thursday, April 16, the new COVID-19 Assessment Centre opened at Erie Shores HealthCare.

After earlier discussions with the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit, Erie Shores HealthCare was approved by Ontario Health, West Region, to open the centre within the hospital.

Thursday morning at 8am, the centre opened its doors. The hours of operation are 8am to 4pm, seven days a week. There is a potential to expand the hours based on demand.

The centre is open for walk-ins and you don’t require a referral from TeleHealth or your family doctor to attend.

A clinical assessment must be done before testing.

You will be required to attend the screening trailer and then sent around to the assessment centre entrance at the back of the hospital.

After five days, the centre has tested 200 people.

“The ESHC COVID-19 Assessment Center is welcomed news to the communities in which we serve,” says Janice Dawson, CEO at Erie Shores HealthCare.

The increased testing in Ontario will undoubtedly drive the number of confirmed cases up, but officials are hopeful that the curve is still being flattened.

Meanwhile, the move in Leamington frees up the Erie Shores HealthCare Emergency Department.

“The COVID 19 Assessment Center will keep symptomatic patients out of the Emergency Department so the hospital can remain focused on the highest acute care needs of this community,” said Doctor Ross Moncur, Chief of Staff for Erie Shores.

Upon assessment, it will be determined if you require a swab test. Further direction will be provided to patients on whether to self-isolate or self-quarantine.

The Windsor Essex County Health Unit will then follow up with patients once their results are available.

Council shoots down proposed COVID by-law

By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — The majority of Leamington Council wants no part in limiting the number of people in vehicles within the municipality.

At a lively meeting on April 14, a by-law was brought forth by administration, proposing that no passenger shall be seated within 2 metres of another passenger or the driver in a vehicle, unless they reside at the same address.

Further, no employer would be allowed to permit any employees to ride together if they do not live under the same roof.

The by-law would have a direct impact on buses and taxis currently transporting offshore work-

ers into the Leamington business district for their weekly banking and shopping excursions.

Deputy Mayor Larry Verbeke was the first to speak out against the proposed by-law.

“Who is going to enforce this?” he asked.

It was stated by administration that by-law enforecement officers, along with help from the OPP, would enforce the bylaw.

Municpal CAO Peter Neufeld explained that the first step in enforcement is education to bring people into compliance. That would happen prior to any charges being laid.

The by-law would have been the first of its kind for a munipality this size.

Councillor Paul Tiessen

ERY DELIVABLE L I AVA

wondered how it could be enforced as well, citing the buses from the greenhouse farms who have several workers in bunkhouses.

“How can we tell if they are from the same bunkhouse or not,” he asked.

Tiessen compared the bylaw to ‘profiling’ and wondered if he went out for a drive with his family, if he would be pulled over because he’d have more than one passenger.

Director of Legal and Legislative Services, Ruth Orton, said that the bylaw would be complaint driven and that officers would be patrolling known hot spots where groups may hang out.

Council

Leamington council approves Mill Street parkette design

LEAMINGTON — At the April 14 meeting of Leamington council, administration brought forward a design approval for the parkette being planned for 40-42 Mill Street West.

The design is part of the Master Plan of 2018 by R.C. Spencer and Associates.

Allan Botham, Manager of Engineering Services with the municipality, spoke to council about Phase 1 and the costs involved.

This phase would include improvements in the parkette as well as a complete upgrade to Alley 15, which is the alley that runs behind the businesses on the south side of Mill Street West.

Upgrades will include sewer work, electrical, paving and landscaping for the parkette and alley and would cost approximately $395,000 to complete. About $130,000 of that amount would cover the parkette.

In recent years, the town had purchased the bulding there and demolished it.

The parkette, when finished will provide a direct connection between Mill Street West and the parking lot on Russell Street.

Councillor John Jacobs had some safety concerns.

“Are there any plans for security cameras?” he asked.

Botham answered that there are plans for enhanced lighting in the alley and string lighting in the parkette but no plans in place for security cameras.

Leamington CAO Peter Neufeld mentioned that any security cameras in the uptown core are the responsibility of the BIA and its member businesses.

Councillor Bill Dunn asked if

As a result of the temporary suspension of service from Transit Windsor, the Leamington to Windsor (LTW) Transit service suspended operations on Saturday, March 28. The suspension of operations has now been extended to at least Friday, May 1, 2020.

This is an evolving situation, and officials will continue to update residents as new information becomes available.

Leamington Transit services within the urban area of Leamington will continue operations until further notice.

there was a way they could postpone the improvements until the COVID-19 pandemic passed.

Neufeld said that this is part of Phase 1 of the master plan and that any delay would also delay other projects.

Councillor Tim Wilkinson had some concerns about the lighting as well, wondering if the string lights would provide the necessary security and safety for the public.

“All the parks in the uptown area should be well lit,” he said.

Wilkinson also asked about beautifying the walls on either side of the parkette.

Botham answered that plans were in place to approach the new bakery and also Main West Furniture about utilizing beautification funds to help get murals painted.

Councillor Paul Tiessen echoed the sentiments of Dunn, saying that they should wait a year until the virus threat has passed.

Botham assured him that they are just at the stage of looking for approval for the design, not necessarily putting out tenders just yet.

Mayor Hilda MacDonald supported the project by saying, “It’s far too early to be talking about scuttling projects.”

After some further discussion, a vote was taken and the motion was carried by a 6-1 vote.

“All the parks in the uptown area should be well lit.”

— From Page 1 Councillor Tim Wilkinson was opposed as well.

“I’m not comfortable at all with this,” he said.

Councillors John Jacobs and John Hammond both supported the by-law to an extent.

“We need to send a message,” said Jacobs.

“I’m very familiar with one bus that drops off workers and they’re not all from the same bunkhouse,” said Hammond.

Mayor Hilda MacDonald didn’t shy away from expressing her feelings on the subject.

“I’ve fielded numerous calls and text messages about workers being brought in by van and busload,” she said. “But this bylaw makes me uncomfortable,” MacDonald said.

She said that about 80 percent of the people are following social distancing guidelines and there are 20 MACDONALD percent who are not.

“They need to own this,” she said. “Not us.”

MacDonald’s frustration with those who are not conforming to the social distancing guidelines was clear and she was quick to point out that many seniors, who are among the most vulnerable, are still visiting with each other and ignoring the guidelines.

Following more discussion, the issue was put to a vote.

In the end, the proposed bylaw was defeated by a 5-2 vote.

OPP charge two under Emergency Act LEAMINGTON — The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) in Essex County has charged two individuals in separate incidents under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act (EMCPA).

On April 9, Leamington detachment officers responded to two separate reports of gatherings of more than five people at residences on Wigle Street and Satinwood Crescent.

Through investigation it was determined that a number of persons present at each location were not residents of that address. As a result, two Leamington residents have been charged with Failing to Comply with an Order Made during a Declared Emergency.

The OPP will continue to educate the public about the rules under the EMCPA and enforce through a charge as a last resort.

Do your part by supporting local business if you can As time goes by during this pandemic, people are gettting antsy to resume ‘normal life’.

The sad fact is that life may not ever return to what we had. I see all sorts of people on social media saying that this is going to be so much better for us as a society.

I’m not sure if I’m ready for a whole new world, but that is out of my control.

I’m cautiously optimistic that we will come out of this stronger but I will miss my former life.

My job depends on personal interaction with people and I don’t know if it can be sustained for years to come without that personal interaction. All I can ask is for the community to support all the local businesses, which also includes your local paper.

By virtue of you reading this column we can assume that you are picking up your paper and at least glancing

through it.

Or maybe you’re reading it online. Either way, you are seeing the advertisers who have taken the time to put their information in our capable hands.

They are still spending their money on advertising, trying to keep their brand out there for you to see, even at a time when many of them are not bringing in a lot of revenue.

Right now, there is not an abundance of advertisers, but there are some hardy souls who have stuck it out with us.

As we come out of this, we hope that everyone else will return to their regular advertising routines and put their trust in us once again.

Please take note of those businesses who have put their faith in us during this trying time and patronize them when you can. We will all come out of this eventually, let’s not lose any of these local businesses along the way.

Cedar Beach Drug Store, owned by Red Morris, offered drugs, toiletries, china and souvenirs for sale as well as providing a luncheon menu. Speed boat rides were available from the Cedar Beach Drug Store for 50 cents a ride for summer visitors renting a cabin or for cottagers not owning a boat.

The boats could be taken through the placid canal or out into the rougher waters of Lake Erie. This Photo of the old Power House of the Windsor, Essex and Lake Shore Rapid Railway on Park Street, photograph of an unidentified family, standing outside the Cedar Beach Drug Store, was taken in overlooking the Kingsville Harbour. The mechanical apparatus needed to power the streetcars was located the late 1940s or early 1950s. in the main building, while the streetcars were housed in a one-storey brick addition on the west side. Exact date of this photo is unknown. This old building has had many uses over the years, and is still being utilized.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Reader thankful for good samaritan Dear sir: I came home from my weekly grocery shopping with a big smile on my face and told my husband: I just had such a wonderful experience, at the store checkout I was approached by a several de-

cades younger lady who said, ”May I pay for your groceries?”

I hesitated and asked, “Why would you do such a nice thing?”

She said, “I like to do that because the world is such a negative place right now. Let’s keep

smiling.”

Now I am looking for an appropriate method to pass this on.

Such a heart warming positive action in this indeed negative world.

Thank you Sam. Tini Grolman, Leamington

Leamington Arts Centre forced to cancel Arts at the Marina

For the first time in its long history, the 2020 Arts at the Marina will not take place.

Leamington Arts Centre (LAC) Director Chad Riley made the announcement Monday.

“It is with disappointment that, due to COVID-19, the Leamington Arts Centre has had to make the challenging decision to cancel the 28th annual Arts at the Marina”, he said.

For nearly three decades the LAC has presented its major fundraiser of the year, and over those years the event has featured thousands of artisans and welcomed even more visitors to Leamington’s popular arts event at the scenic municipal marina.

The 2-day event scheduled for June 27 and 28 was well on its way to being a bigger and better show than ever. The LAC was excited to once again present so many talented artists and artisans as well as feature local musicians, delicious foods, along with local wineries, breweries and spirit vendors from across Essex County.

Expecting the disappointment from the community and the exhibitors, Riley said, “We sincerely thank all our exhibitors who registered to be a part of the show, our generous sponsors, dedicated volunteers, service and equipment providers and to all the community who planned to, and who come out each year to support this great show.”

A list of all the exhibitors who were registered will be made available on the LAC website in the coming days, and Riley is encouraging all to have a look and continue to support the artists who make the event an amazing and memorable experience.

Refund cheques for the full registration fee paid by exhibitors will be issued in the coming days and mailed out.

Maiuri, Vincenza Anna (Arcese) 83 years, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, April 14, 2020 at the Sun Parlor Home in Leamington. Born September 30, 1936 in Italy in the province of Frosinone in the city of Ceprano.

Beloved wife of the late Luigi Maiuri (2010) for 52 years. Loving and devoted mother of Diane Maiuri, Sandra Neudorf (Jake). Adored grandmother of Alexis, Selia, Ella and Aiden Neudorf. Dear sister of Bernardo Arcese and Guido Arcese (Antonietta). Aunt to her niece and nephew. Predeceased by her parents Angela Maria Rea Arcese and Luigi Arcese.

A private family service will be held with entombment following at Erie Memorial Gardens.

As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations to The Alzheimer Society would be appreciated.

Family and friends are invited to share their words of comfort and remembrance at www.reidfuneralhome.ca

If you require assistance placing an obituary during the Covid-19 Pandemic, please email us at sun@southpointsun.ca

Should any exhibitors wish to apply their 2020 fee to 2021, the LAC will apply the credit for next year and honour the rate should the fees change for next year.

If any exhibitors would like to do so, please email

Patrons enjoy the 2018 Arts at the Marina

Counselling line set up

WINDSOR – The Windsor-Essex COVID Care Coalition has launched the Windsor-Essex Counselling Support Line (WECSL) to help people in the community access professional counselling support services.

“Worry and anxiety are common problems at the best of times,” says Joyce Zuk, Executive Director of Family Services Windsor-Essex and counselling lead agency for the Coalition. “As the impact of COVID-19 in the Windsor-Essex community and the need for physical isolation that can then result in social isolation continues, these feelings can become overwhelming.”

The WECSL is a temporary support line set up to provide timely, safe and responsive telephone counselling support to people who are having difficulty coping effectively at this time. The confidential support line is available to everyone in Windsor and Essex County, including individuals, couples, seniors and families.

The 1939 Leamington Barons were a powerhouse

This week’s look back is brought to us from Scott Holland. It tells the story of the 1939 Barons’ great season.

When talk about local baseball arises, there is little doubt that the 1939 Leamington Barons will be mentioned as one of this area’s greatest baseball squads, even after 80 years have passed.

After spending a few seasons without a club, Leamington joined the re-formed North Essex Baseball League.

They cast aside their former name, the Diamonds (which was by then the name of the Amherstburg club) and became known as the Barons.

Manager Tommy Whitesell had plenty of work to do in late April and had plenty of talent to sign to playing cards.

But a cool and wet spring caused some injuries prior to opening day in early May. Despite the large number of rookies who had never played organized ball, which for Leamington included most of the infield, the Barons would play the 18 game schedule and be nearly unbeatable.

That season they would play teams from Essex, Woodslee, Amherstburg, Oldcastle, Harrow, Maidstone, McGregor, Kingsville and Pleasure Beach.

Heading into the final game at McGregor in early September, the Barons were in first place with a 15-2 record.

That last game ended in Leamington forfeiting the contrest.

Exactly what occurred we may never know, but

it was reported that the umpire called a forfeit for some reason, leaving the Barons with a final record of 15-3.

When the campaign ended, left fielder Russ White led the team and the league in hitting with a .471 average that included 33 hits in 68 atbats, 16 RBIs, six walks, 5 strikeouts and 10 stolen bases.

Teammate John Garton (future GM of radio station CJSP and later CHYR) was the top pitcher with a 10-0 record.

He allowed only 41 hits and 21 walks and had 89 strikeouts.

In the fielding department first baseman Glenn Parker handled 188 chances in 18 games with no errors.

In the first playoff round, they faced the Woodslee Orioles and beat them in two straight games. The second contest was by an 11-0 score.

The Barons were all set to play Amherstburg for the championship in another best two- of-three.

In game one at Seacliff Park, they trounced the visitors 15-0 on 16 hits.

Glenn Parker led the way with 11 total bases that included a home run, and pitcher Loris Havens allowed five scattered hits.

In game two, they won 9-2, becoming the 1939 champs.

Several of these boys served in WWII but for that one season they played as a cohesive unit and gave Leamington something to cheer about other than tomatoes.

It was truly a special season in many ways.

Another noteworthy event from 1949 was the arrival of the first Cadillac two-door hardtop called the deVille. With all the windows rolled down, it looked like a convertible with the top up.

This body style was widely adopted by other car companies, although seldom seen today.

The deVille name was extended to other body styles of Cadillac in the 1950s and ‘60s, including Steve John’s ’66 convertible, which has the famous Hydramatic transmission pioneered

by Cadillac and offered as standard equipment starting in 1950.

To Steve, we say: “Happy Cadillac motoring!”

Looking back 50 years

Sports reports from 1970 April 23, 1970 original story by Roger Hodgson Mic Macs win SEHL Title Last Wednesday evening, Jerry Brooks guided his Blytheswood Mic Macs to the South Essex Hockey League 1969-70 championship with a wild 9-7 victory over the Wheatley Omsteads.

The victory, before over 1400 fans at Leamington Arena, gave the best of seven series to the Mic Macs, four games to one, and ended Wheatley’s two-year stint as champions.

The Mic Macs last won the title in 1963-64. This was their eighth time hoisting the Junior Chamber of Commerce Trophy.

Bob LaFleur once again led his team to victory with two goals and an assist. Brian Harris also tallied twice, with singles to Larry Wales, Art Verhaeghe, Max Riediger, John Riley and Maurice Cowan.

Fudd Jackson paced the Omsteads with a hat trick. Danny Vickery potted two goals while Al Lynn and Jim Gillanders had one each.

Pete Knight, the Mic Macs’ babyfaced twine-tender, came up with his best game of the series, booting out 44 shots, including 18 in the middle frame. He saved the victory with his outstanding play and got the nod as the second star, despite allowing seven goals.

First star went to Mic Mac captain Art Verhaeghe, while Al Lynn of Wheatley was chosen as third star.

Zaworotuk leads Peewee scorers

Mike Zaworotuk has captured the individual scoring championship for the Leamington Edwards TV Peewee Allstars this season.

He finished with 87 points on 58 goals and 29 assists, five points ahead of linemate John Emerson. The third member of this powerful line was Rick Robinson, who collected 60 points on 25 goals and 35 assists.

David Redi was fourth with 39 goals and 19 assists for 58 points.

The team played 72 games this year, winning 41 of them, losing 21 and tying 10.

They won the annual Christmas tournament here in December.

Coach Don Robinson and manager Murray Knox thanked sponsor Edwards’ TV for their new unforms.

Joey Wickham and Paul Anthony were the goaltenders this year.

Flyerettes win two-of-three The Leamington Flyerettes won two out of three games in the B division of the third annual Sun Parlor Girls’ Hockey Tournament at the Essex Arena last weekend.

Leamington just missed advancing to the finals.

The Flyerettes, Detroit Cougars and London, all completed qualifying play with four points but the nod went to London on the basis of total goals.

Leamington defeated Tilbury 3-1 in game one. Marie Riley, Pat Mifflin and Valerie Whittle scored the goals.

They then squeezed past Detroit 2-1 in game two, but lost game three to London by a 3-0 score.

Every year in Canada, lightning causes a large number of injuries and sometimes even death.

Lightning awareness is particularly important for outdoor workers and those engaged in outdoor activities, such as sports, camping and boating.

Lightning is an occupational hazard, and those who work and play outdoors are vulnerable to lightning strikes.

Many thunderstorms develop in the afternoon, between 1 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Dark clouds and increas-

When you hear thunder, lightning is within striking distance and it is time to seek shelter immediately in an enclosed building or hard-topped vehicle.
