After much debate, municipal council decided to make doing business in Leamington a little more affordable. The most contested item on the agenda for the regular Tuesday, Jan. 15 meeting was the first of nine proposed amendments to the existing business licensing bylaw — whether to leave initial fees as is, reduce them by an agreed upon percentage or eliminate the fees outright. After hearing a report presented by director of legal and legislative services Ruth Orton, who recommended that existing fees remain untouched, council narrowly passed a motion to cut initial fees by 50 per cent. Orton explained that although some business owners viewed the business license fees as a tax, the amounts were actually established to offset the costs associated with the bylaw’s administration, overhead and inspections. While some members of council noted that the fees should not serve the purpose of generating revenue, others felt that a reduced or eliminated licensing cost “The fact that would evolve into an extra burden to we’ve ticked off taxpayers. a bunch of “The Business Licensing Bylaw was business people does created to get people who weren’t folnot sit well with me. I lowing the rules to follow the rules,” don’t want to see people said mayor Hilda MacDonald. “That moving to the was the whole point — to get rid of those next town.” people, not to create a revenue stream. It was something to get people in line, — Hilda making it easier for building inspectors MacDonald to keep people safe. The fact that we’ve ticked off a bunch of business people does not sit well with me. I don’t want to see people moving to the next town.” While councilor Tim Wilkinson stated that license fees are a cost recovery method rather than a revenue stream, councilor Paul Tiessen noted that there are already two pages of other existing fees for business owners in Leamington and that for some, a licensing fee could serve as “the straw that breaks the camel’s back.” After voting to cut the initial fee in half — an amount that varies according to the type of business an owner is opening — council shifted its focus to business license renewals. Options included keeping the current annual rate, changing to a renewal once ever three years, once every five years or eliminating the requirement for license renewal. While council members agreed that five-year licenses would make it too difficult to keep an up-to-date registry on existing businesses, a debate unfolded as to whether the present one-year rate or a renewal once every three years would be ideal. Orton, who recommended maintaining the one year rate, explained that even a three-year renewal system would make it difficult to maintain valid information on whether or not businesses are still operating, if they’ve changed owners, moved to new addresses or have altered the type of business they’re providing to the public. Wilkinson explained that with the outcome of the first vote on the bylaw, he was not receptive to increasing the periods of validity on business licenses. “It’s not a popular bylaw in our town, but I think it’s important,” Wilkinson said. Meanwhile, Tiessen explained he was unconvinced that yearly renewals were necessary and that the annual rate may only create more work for municipal staff. After three consecutive motions were defeated, council went on to vote in favour of yearly renewals with the same fees as the newly-reduced initial costs.

“Just Roll With It” Gala raises $125,000 for hospital foundation By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – A crucial yearly fundraiser was not greeted by the best of weather conditions, but hundreds of supporters decided to ‘Just Roll With It’. The Erie Shores Health Foundation’s 24th annual Gala challenged guests with what was by far the worst weather and road conditions from the winter of 2018-’19 thus far, but the outcome proved favourable nonetheless. Although proceeds raised through the event were still being tabulated in the days to follow, organizers estimated that about $125,000 was generated — a sum similar to the outpouring of support for last year’s gala. This year’s fundraiser, held at the Leamington Portuguese Club Saturday, Jan. 19, featured a Vegas theme dubbed ‘Just Roll With It’. Once again, tickets to the gala sold out to the host site’s maximum capacity of approximately 480 guests. The gathering was also supported by about 40 major sponsors, offering contributions of $5,000, $2,500, $2,000 or $1,000. About a dozen more local businesses provided complimentary services or food items for this year’s gala. Another 50-plus businesses and groups donated items for the silent auction portion of the fundraiser. “Our sponsors are fabulous — without them, we couldn’t do this,” explained Susan Liovas, who represented the Gala committee along with Shelly Gabriele Gale, Betty Sleiman, Jill Taouil, Lily DiCiocco and BrieAnna Bento. “It’s a wonderful accomplishment,” added Erie Shores Health Foundation executive director Christine Colautti. “The sponsors are integral.

Kettle Campaign a success for 2018 By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – Through the recent holiday season, Leamington’s Salvation Army benefited from the community’s generosity in more ways than one. After tabulating all contributions from the fiveweek annual Christmas Kettle Campaign, Leamington’s Salvation Army was able to report a donation sum of $129,784.50. The total exceeded the goal of $115,000 by $14,784.50. “We really appreciate how generous the community has been,” explained Leamington Salvation Army Lieutenant Brad Webster. “The businesses, social groups, schools and individuals have been outstanding.” This year’s local Kettle Campaign included nine stations at local retailers and grocery stores throughout Leamington, Kingsville and Pelee Island. Other single day or intermittent kettles were set up at locations including business offices, Leamington Flyers home games and UMEI Christian High School. The campaign was again

led by Kimberly Heaton, who was assisted by several volunteers including various church group representatives. In total, 2,300 volunteer hours were offered through 116 shifts — just over 90 per cent of the Leamington campaign’s available time slots.

“We’re not even considering a shutdown now. — Brad Webster

In the latter stages of this year’s drive, organizers feared the collection of donations would fall far short of the 2018 goal. Nearly $43,000, however, was contributed in the final week, with particularly large amounts coming from Buzek Chiropractic Clinic and Baird Architecture and Engineering. “We were about $40,000 shy of the goal in the middle of week four,” Webster explained. “We were quite concerned at that point.

There was an overwhelming response from the community.” Each year, Salvation Army Kettle goals are based on the needs from the past year including food bank clients and emergency relief expenses. For 2017, the goal of $110,000 was eclipsed by a combined community donation of $115,529.25. In addition to another successful Christmas Kettle Campaign, non-perishable food item donations also arrived at the local SA branch in high volumes. With food bank supplies critically low through much of the autumn of 2018, the Leamington Salvation Army branch was considering a multi-week shutdown for the month of January 2019. Thanks to a community-wide rally however — including 8,000 items collected and donated by Ecole St-Michel on December 12 — the food bank’s shelves were filled with all required resources. “We’re not even considering a shutdown now,” Webster said. “We’re topped off with everything we need.” The flow of food bank items also included six filled skids from Nature Fresh Farms and South Essex Fabricating. Webster credited the large-scale response for both the Kettle Campaign and food bank drive in part to a Salvation Army open house held in November. He noted that many of the 100 in attendance were unaware of the services provided. The Christmas Kettle Campaign’s appreciation dinner is being held at the Roma Club Sat., Feb. 23.

Greenhouse water allocation bylaw passed By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – Leamington Municipal Council has approved a recommendation limiting water allocation for all restricted greenhouses in Leamington. Manager of Environmental Services Shannon Belleau presented a report preceded by a recommendation to enact a Greenhouse Water Allocation Bylaw that would limit consumption to 6,000 imperial gallons (27,276.54 litres) per acre per day for greenhouse operations in Leamington. Council approved the recommendation after reviewing the current model of

consumption. The information within the report on the recommendations revealed that acreage dedicated to greenhouse businesses in Leamington had grown from 216 in 1989 to 1,370 in 2017. Another 375 acres has been approved for future greenhouse construction. Within the report, administration recorded an analysis of metered water consumption from Leamington greenhouses for the year 2017. The study indicated that of the 118 greenhouse operations at that time, only five — about four per cent — had a peak average water consumption of more than

6,000 imperial gallons per acre per day. Eighty-four per cent of those operations used less than 5,000 imperial gallons per day per acre. Belleau also noted that a number of the municipality’s greenhouses, including some of the larger operations, utilize alternative water supply sources such as groundwater or LADII (Leamington Area Drip Irrigation Inc.) system that was formed in 2006. In part, the report explains the new bylaw “will bring projected water use more closely in line with actual consumption and will have minimal impact on actual greenhouse operation.” The same section of the report goes on to note that reducing applications that are at or above previous benchmarks of 8,000 and 10,000 imperial gallons per acre per day will “free up substantial capacity in the distribution system to allow approvals to proceed without having to invest capital infrastructure funds.” To accommodate the new limit, new greenhouses will be required to install rate of flow control valves to meet the new consumption limit. Existing greenhouses equipped with rate of flow control valves allowing more than 6,000 imperial gallons per acre per day will not be immediately required to update those valve systems, although they may be required to install the lower flow rate valves in the future. In the meantime, consumption data will be closely monitored. “It’s a theoretical shortage. There should be no negative impact on operations,” noted Leamington CAO Peter Neufeld.

Valentine’s Fun Night to raise money for Bank Theatre stage

Kingsville Council defers decision to assist with veterans’ banner project

By Sheila McBrayne

By Pat Bailey

KINGSVILLE – The resounding success of a special project to recognize and honour local veterans has posed a few unexpected problems for the organizers. On January 14, Kingsville Municipal Council agreed to defer a financial request and manpower request in support of the Salute to Veterans Banner Project. Jay Atkin, one of the co-founders of the project, asked for Council’s support to a tune of nearly $7,000 in funding, as well as staff support when it comes to helping erect brackets on the poles that will be displaying banners featuring local veterans, past and present. Atkin told Council that in its inaugural phase, 15 banners featuring local veterans were raised on poles throughout town. A special ceremony was held just prior to Remembrance Day to unveil the banners. “We were overwhelmed by the attendance, the emotion and the subsequent response to the inaugural launch,” Atkin told Council. In fact, Atkin said the overwhelming response has left them with a bit of a challenge – a shortage of brackets to display the banners. He said they are already approaching requests for another 45 banners, which when added to the initial 15, will require housings for at least 60 banners. Atkin told Council he believes that number could easily reach 70 as the year goes on. Atkin said the goal of the committee, including Daisy Stewart, Murray Stewart and Mary-Maureen Atkin, is to have brackets procured and mounted to accommodate these banners. That is where the committee needs Council’s assistance to proceed. At a cost of $80-$90 per set of brackets, Atkin asked Council to fund the one-time cost of about $6,300, as well as the manpower to mount the brackets. Councillor Tony Gaffan asked Atkin if it was possible to split the raising of the estimated 70 banners over two years. “If we can’t procure the brackets for all 70,” said Atkin, “we’ll have to come up with an alternative plan.” Councillor Thomas Neufeld made a motion to bring the $6,300 to the table during budget deliberations. Gaffan requested administration get a price on the estimated cost for staff to install the brackets before the budgeting process. The banners are expected to be raised at the end of August through the month of November. Wheatley has a similar project, Hometown Heroes, and Leamington has shown interest in creating a salute to veterans as well.

The Friends of The Bank Theatre are preparing for their second annual fundraiser for the Starlight Stage. This year’s event – Valentine’s Fun Night – is slated for Saturday, February 16 at the Portuguese Club, casual dress. The Sun Parlour Chorus will be performing at this great fundraising event for The Bank Theatre. The night includes entertainment, dinner (chicken and yellow perch), followed up with DJ Chuck Reynolds and dancing until midnight. Bring your significant other for this fun-filled evening of music. Tickets are $100/ person (with a $50 tax receipt) and are now available at Reid Funeral Home, 519-326-2631; Southpoint Sun, 519-398-9098; Oak Farms, 519-326-9322; and Adamson Pharmacy, 519825-4111. Sun Parlour Chorus, part of Barbershop Harmony Society, a worldwide men’s singing organization, provides an ultimate and unforgettable a cappella flair. The 30-member chorus is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. Last year’s event raised

$25,000, which earned matching funds from the Municipality of Leamington. The members of Friends of The Bank Theatre raised an additional $30,000 through personal donations and smaller fundraising events. In total, Friends of The Bank Theatre have raised $80,000 of the $100,00 total for the new Starlight Stage, named

in honour of the late Frederick W. Omstead. “We’re hoping this fundraiser will complete the stage project,” said Larry McDonald, a member of Friends of The Bank Theatre. The Bank Theatre held its Dale’s Friday Coffee House on Friday, January 11 and is now closed until the final phase of the interior renovations are complete.

I kind of miss missing out Quite often, what seems like a great idea — a so-called “no brainer” even — isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. About two years ago, my wife and I decided to invest in a Kodi box. Essentially, it’s a Bryan Jessop device that provides streams from your Wifi to offer access to a boatload of TV shows, movies and sporting events absolutely FREE of charge. You pay for the box itself and that’s it — no monthly fees. After figuring out the basics, it was everything we dreamed it would be. Naturally however, like all cutting edge technological breakthroughs, the flaws began rearing their ugly heads. “Cannot find a working stream” and other general error messages became more commonplace as the months rolled along. I missed a couple Superbowls because of the bloody thing. Eventually, my wife broke down and insisted we dole out the monthly funds to access a cable package offering little more than basic network television. She missed it a lot. I, as it turns out, did not. Network TV, like the music heard on mainstream radio, is a wasteland of uninspiring, generic, ‘monkey see, monkey do’ garbage. Apparently, there’s another hospitalthemed drama that’s made its way to prime time. Wow, that’s original. A couple weeks ago, my wife made a quick stop at our local branch of the Chatham-Kent Library to find a movie for our son to watch (it seems she’s grown a little weary of non-stop Star Wars). She grabbed a Disney flick called “Coco,” which none of us had ever even heard of before she brought it home.

JESSOP’S JOURNAL

With the busy day-to-day routines of work and family life, we almost didn’t watch it. Finally, the night before its return due date, we decided to toss the disc into the ol’ DVD player and give it a whirl. Quite honestly, I can’t recall the last time I saw an animated Disney movie worthy of being called its equal (Finding Nemo was relatively close). By nature, I’m the nostalgic type who’s big on the classics — be it music, cars, movies, the ‘bygone days’ of professional sports or what have you. However, given the choice, I’d rewatch Coco over Lady and the Tramp, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, The Jungle Book… you name it. The animation is no better or worse than anything else Disney (or other filmmakers) has come up with in recent years. The story, on the other hand, was a welcome gust of fresh air with a few twists and turns that I did NOT see coming. Essentially, the plot centres around a boy in Mexico who is hell bent on becoming a successful singer and guitar player despite his family’s all-out loathing of all things musical. The Mexican holiday we know as The Day of the Dead offers the plot’s foundation, presenting a gateway between the realms of the living and deceased that young Miguel must navigate to achieve his dreams and save a newfound (and rather unpopular) friend. What’s perhaps the best part? No tired, overdone love story and get this — not a single princess. None. It blows my mind that Frozen drew almost half a billion dollars more (US) at the box office. It seems kids and adults alike just can’t get enough of the same old, same old. I saw Frozen on TV during the Christmas break of 2017. Well, most of it — it was a yawnfest to which I struggled to offer my consistent attention. The fact of the matter is that the entertainment industry’s diamonds — much like actual diamonds themselves — are never going to be found on the surface. Such discoveries take some digging, or at best, random luck. Tired of the status quo? Keep a shovel handy.

Go jump in the lake… okay For those of you who feel like telling me to go jump in the lake, that’s exactly what I’ll be doing next weekend. It’s the 18th annual Polar Bear Dip at Cedar Beach on Saturday, January 26 Sheila and according to The McBrayne Weather Network it’s supposed to be -10 degrees Celcius and windy! After I already wrote this column, this week’s Polar Bear Dip was resceduled until March... I started dipping in 2010 with the team comprised of

McTHOTS

players from Leamington Women’s Hockey League. Our team name is LWHL Dippy Chicks. I missed one year when I was sick and I missed one other year because I was jumping in much warmer waters in Aruba. My teammates were NOT sympathetic about my absence. So I think this is my eighth Polar Dip. Every year we choose a team “costume theme”. We have been Team Canada (a few times), Hawaiian, Super Heroes, 80’s, clowns (I missed the clown year) pirates and one year, we were ‘Rock On’ Andrew Banner groupies. For this year’s theme, we are getting our GEEK on with a Big Bang! Bazinga! (Continued on Page 7)

Letter to the Editor The Municipality of Chatham-Kent is reviewing whether to by-law its taxpayers to clean, de-ice and maintain municipal sidewalks at taxpayer expense or face financial penalties, as a result of new provincial rules requiring clean sidewalks within 48 hours after a snowstorm and having to de-ice as well. Chatham-Kent confirms they can handle the 48-hour clearing but not the de-icing. They explain many deicing difficulties, including melted ice only re-freezes causing more work for the municipality. I agree with the municipality, in that the expanded provincial demands for clean sidewalks places an unrealistic and almost impossible task to accomplish and would require repeated maintenance, especially for the de-icing part, and subsequently become more costly, adding to the budget. Placing the responsibility onto taxpayers will only end in costing more for everyone and will not create that magic to resolve the issues. When taxpayers accept the proposed forced responsibility, they will also assume a level of liability (even though sidewalks are owned by municipalities and municipalities are still liable). Direct and indirect costs to each of us will be high should this by-law be successful, and can also result in enhancing potential injuries through inconsistency in sidewalk clearing. Forcing taxpayers to yet another expense only adds for further reduction in disposable income, weakening our local economy and creating yet another level of stress onto people. Taxpayers would have to coordinate themselves or the municipality would have to set up and coordinate each property owner and building occupier in each area of Chatham-Kent to systematically remove the snow within their prescribed individual walk section within the provincially prescribed time of 48 hours, and systematically maintain the level of snow to a minimum of 8 cm as required. Additionally, Chatham-Kent would have to coordinate each property owner and building occupier, again, to systematically de-ice and make sure de-icing continues, doesn’t melt and re-freeze, until the safety level of each sidewalk is achieved, pursuant to the provincial regulations. Further, to enforce compliance of the proposed bylaw, in order to police the entire land mass of ChathamKent, a minimum of two to four by-law enforcement officers would have to be hired at an attractive base salary plus 33% employee burden (employee burden is the cost to keep an employee in addition to the base salary). The municipality explains that 19 other Ontario municipalities have similar by-laws. That’s true, but that leaves 425 other Ontario jurisdictions that do not. Municipalities need to mediate with the province for a more practical approach to this regulation, and don’t even consider passing the “tax buck” to its residents.

Many changes ahead “And suddenly you know… it’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.” – Unknown. It was a blustery day on the cay when I wrote this column, and by the sounds of things, a blustery, sub-zero day back there too! No doubt many of you are ready to pack up and head south, and in many ways I would pack up and come home in a minute. Our minds work in funny ways! The New Year has brought many changes, known and unknown. The owners of Little Whale Cay have very openly put the cay on the market. This news is not a big surprise to us, but definitely Shannon gives us food for thought regarding our future. Un- Matheson til then, we are relishing in the present and all that it offers. We have had an incredibly busy holiday season. The owners’ family and friends, along with the staff to cater to them, began to arrive on December 13 and the last to leave left on January 13. Unfortunately, one of our favourite stewardesses had to cancel just a week before the holiday. Through an agency in Lauderdale, we were able to find a substitute stewardess for part of the time. Julie from Oregon arrived full of energy and a creative spirit. We hit it off! Our daughter Anna was able to join us and take over for Julie when she left. It was a treat to be able to work out every morning and continue to work together in the kitchen every day. Eva, our chef, arrived from England. I was amazed with this young cook’s ability to wield her spatula and create many lovely meals. She didn’t come from a family of cooks, and most of the food that she created didn’t even appeal to her as a vegetarian. She was a smart cookie who learned by keeping her eyes open. Provisioning for such a long stint on an island is interesting, and this may be where experience is most important. Our staff has never unloaded so many groceries while Mark and I have been on the cay. Our walk-in fridge and freezer, two free-standing fridges, kitchen fridge/freezer and eight-foot chest freezer were filled to the brim. Mark even had to take a few items down to an empty staff cottage fridge. Fast-forward to now. It’s all a blur. Food was created, eaten and wasted. I have been left with fish, meat and provisions that I have never worked with before. My new challenge! As the food stocks have piled up, so have Mark’s and my responsibilities on the cay. My Fitbit calculates my steps, and while I walk I think of all the things that I could be sharing with you. However, by the time we settle down each evening, I can’t even make it through an episode of “Peaky Blinders.” My friend, Jim Heyens, asked me if I would ever consider writing a Lifestyles column for the Wheatley Journal over ten years ago. I wasn’t a writer, but was so dumbfounded by his vote of confidence that I took up the challenge. I can’t explain to you how personally rewarding agreeing to his offer has been. When I began, Mark wasn’t sure he wanted me to mention his name. That changed as he, too, acknowledged the great feedback. I have even heard that there may be a bet going. What paragraph would include him? Just a week ago, it hit me that I have never been busier in my life. The Southpoint Sun newspaper has been very patient. Having worked there, I also realize that I have been a pain. Setting the pages and getting to print is a chore. So it is time to move on to the next exciting chapter of my life. The island will take a while to sell, and until then Mark and I will adapt to what is needed from us that now includes caregiving and full-time cook. Thank you Southpoint Sun and especially Jim for opening up this creative door for me. A special thanks also to Tom Leckie at Lally Southpoint Ford for acknowledging my readership and wanting to support my column weekly. Maybe when I return, I can sell some cars! Most of all, thank you all! My family has grown. If you would like to continue to follow Mark’s and my adventure on Little Whale Cay, please sign up to My Tale on Little Whale. You will find out more about Artie, our baby tortoise, and how I am going to use up our provisions. https://islandmanager.me “Change brings opportunity.” – Nido Qubein

Annual Polar Bear Dip rescheduled for March 23 By Pat Bailey

CEDAR BEACH – Hundreds were expected to flock to the sunny shores of Lake Erie on Saturday, January 26 but unfortunately, due to weather concerns, they’ll have to wait until March 23 to go for a dip. Representatives made the decision Monday, January 21 to postpone this weekend’s dip due to safety concerns. With about 100 people, representing 18 teams, slated to take an exhilarating dip into the icy waters of Lake Erie for the 19th Annual Polar Bear Dip, an executive decision was made to postpone the event until March. “With the extreme cold weather and wind gusts forecast for this coming weekend, we’ve unfortunately had to make the decision to postpone the dip,” said a release from ChildCan. “We’re so sorry for any inconvenience this causes,” the release went on to say, “but we want to be sure that everyone is safe.” Come March 23, these dippers are hoping to raise about $50,000 to split between two charities — ChildCan and ACCESS. Charlene Houle, development manager for ACCESS County Community Support Services, said this is the 19th year for the ‘cool’ fundraiser, raising over a million dollars since Kim Cavers began the annual Polar Bear Dip nearly 20 years ago. While Houle admits to being a coward and will re-

main onshore in her nice warm winter gear directing the event, ACCESS executive director John Sutton will take the icy plunge for the first time. Houle said she will anxiously await a new event expected to be held this summer, The Wimpy Polar Bear Dip, before she takes a plunge into Lake Erie. Houle said this year’s event should once again be entertaining, with many teams choosing a team theme for the dip. Registration begins at 10 a.m. at Lakeside Park Pavilion on March 23. She said the participants will then be transported to Cedar Island where the real fun begins at 11 a.m. Once the teams have taken the plunge, or paid a rather nominal fee of $10 to ‘skip the dip’, Houle said they will head back to the pavilion for a hot lunch, a photo booth and awards. Dippers who gather more than $100 in pledges will receive a commemorative souvenir, while those who raise more than $1,000 will have their name entered in a draw for a prize valued at more than $500. ChildCan, Cavers original charity of choice, is a local charity that assists families financially with children battling cancer. While it serves families at Children’s Hospital, London Health Sciences Centre, about 30 per cent of the children ChildCan lends its support to are from the

Windsor-Essex County area. “Our families look forward to this event every year,” said Kathleen Barnard, executive director of ChildCan. “Many of the participants have experienced the journey through childhood cancer, either directly or as close friends or family of the diagnosed child.” “They are enduring the cold water and dipping to honour these incredibly brave children,” she added. “It’s a really fun and ‘chill’ way for them to show their support and to give back.” Houle said ACCESS is also a charity, real and relevant to the community. She said they assist those living on the fringes, especially with housing and after-school programs. Houle said the event promises to be a lot of fun, with dippers earning bragging rights of taking the plunge while supporting two local charities. She said it’s not too late to join in the fun and they are still welcoming new dippers to the team.

Leamington Council receives economic report By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – Earlier this month, Leamington Municipal Council heard of 2018’s highlights and 2019’s objectives through an Economic Development Department report. Manager of Economic Development, Tourism and Special Events James Cox and Culture and Tourism Director Kyra Knapp attended the regular council meeting Tuesday, Jan. 15 to offer members of council a sneak peak into 2019 while reflecting on the milestones of last year. Cox discussed last year’s highlights from both economic and tourism standpoints. In 2017-18, Leamington’s economy grew at a rate of 2.4 per cent — slightly more than the Windsor and provincial average of 2.1 per cent. Cox attributed the growth to the area’s greenhouse sector, although he also noted that Leamington’s unemployment rate was slightly higher than Ontario’s as a whole while being slightly lower than the regional rate. The report noted that Leamington’s 2018 fourth quarter unemployment rate of 6.4 per cent was attributed largely to people moving into the municipality in search of jobs faster than the region can provide them. Between the past two Decembers, 34 new businesses were established in Leamington to create 200 new jobs and another 600 positions indirectly. Cox also discussed the municipality’s ongoing Economic

Development Strategy program, which is based on four priorities — business retention and engagement, development readiness, community investment and tourism development. For 2019, the program is slated to expand into a full-scale survey of the Leamington business community. “We want to get an idea of exactly what our business climate looks like,” Cox ex“Businesses must plained, noting that be positioned to 234 corporate calls take advantage of were made to 156 special events — businesses since December of 2017. that will be a priority Those calls were for 2019.” attributed to assisting — James Cox with 18 grant applications, 65 referrals to different agencies and 45 connections with other businesses. The development readiness part of the strategy welcomed 72 inquiries for land acquisition last year and for 2019, will expand via a new business concierge intended to remove barriers that impede the progress of establishing new businesses. Through community investments, $150,000 was distributed in 2018 through the Community Improvement Program. For this year, plans are in place to ‘refresh’ the CIP

and promote the municipality’s infrastructure investments such as upgrades made to Mill Street West to the business community. Tourism development was attained through 2018 Special Events Enhancements including the Summer Concert Series at the new Seacliff Amphitheatre, Cox said. These attractions included the grand opening featuring The Sheepdogs that drew a crowd of 2,700 and another 1,700 with follow up events on the new stage. “We’re looking to expand on our successes in 2019,” Cox said. “Businesses must be positioned to take advantage of special events — that will be a priority for 2019. With marketing, promotion and communication, we want to spread the Leamington story and expand our brand.” In part, Cox explained that such an objective is being achieved through the municipality’s On The 42 website, which saw a 50 per cent increase in traffic last year over 2017. In response, Mayor Hilda MacDonald explained she’d like to see the business concierge concept expand beyond planning and achieve full implementation by the end of this year. Also offering feedback, Councillor Tim Wilkinson suggested that the development readiness segment of the strategy include working closely alongside the community’s realtors.

Sturgeon Creek drain plan met with appeals By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON - Plans for upgrades and improvements to Leamington’s Sturgeon Creek drain are being met with concerns from affected landowners. A municipal council meeting held Tuesday, Jan. 15 began with a suggestion by Gerard Rood of Leamington-based Rood Engineering Inc. that council’s Court of Revision tend to appeals on assessments for a new diversion channel and improvements at a later date. The project has been evaluated at a cost of just over $2 million. Rood explained that there was insufficient time for the submission of appeals to be filed and that notice had not been sent soon enough. Appeals were launched by six landowners in accordance with Section 52(4) and 76(4) of the Drainage Act based on assessments related to severances and land acquisitions regarding watershed boundaries. “Significant changes may be needed on some of the parcels affected,” Rood noted. Concerns were first brought to light in late November of last year and for some affected property owners, include statements on the amount of acreage affected. In one case, a suggestion was made to lower the value of benefit, as a portion of the involved farmland flows into the Point Pelee drain. Others point out use of the Gillanders drain instead of the Sturgeon Creek system, while another disputes an assessment of more than $9,000 required for construction of a new access bridge — and having to pay for a portion of that cost — contrary to Section 33 of the Drainage Act. On a motion brought fourth by Councillor Tim Wilkinson, council’s Court of Revision agreed to defer hearing the appeals on assessment to a later date.

1936 Chev sedan at Fawcett Motors.

A 1936 Chevrolet for $50 On a recent visit to Fawcett Motors, a restoration shop in Whitby, my friend “Twin Bill” Myers and I saw a 1936 Chevrolet 4-door sedan in showroom condition. “Twin Bill” enjoyed seeing this car because he and three friends pooled their money to buy a 1936 Chevrolet 2-door sedan off a used car lot in Toronto in 1954 for $50. It had a bullet hole in the trunk lid, but it ran and they bought it. After they took out the engine and didn’t know how to rebuild it, they abandoned the engineless car on a side street and never saw it again. Sixty-four years later, I took the picture you see here of the 1936 Chev at Fawcett Motors with Bill Sherk “Twin Bill” beside it. Kurt Cooper of Toronto owns the car. His 1936 Chev was 20 years old when he was born in 1956, and he was 20 years old when he bought the car in 1976. He paid $50, the same price paid for the other one in 1954. Kurt was living in London and working in Sarnia when he first saw his ’36 Chev parked in a wrecking yard near Warwick. He saw it every day he drove to work and finally bought it. Summers were spent working on it, and many years later Kurt treated it to a full restoration. It was built in Oshawa and the original colour was Oshawa Blue. Under the hood is an overhead-valve six cylinder engine with 206 cubic inches and 79 horsepower. The Oshawa factory list price for the sedan with built-in trunk was $1053, and the Special sedan with trunk was $1108. Kurt’s ’36 Chev is a Master Deluxe with “knee-action” independent front suspension. The four boys with their ’36 Chev in 1954 had a solid front axle because it was the Standard model. You got a lot for your money when you bought a new Chevrolet in 1936: an overheadvalve engine, hydraulic brakes when Ford still had mechanical brakes, an all-steel roof when Ford still had a fabric insert roof, and the above mentioned independent front suspension, which Ford did not adopt until 1949. I’m always looking for stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico.ca

THE OLD CAR DETECTIVE

Go jump in the lake... (Continued from Page 4) Our team has about a dozen members and each year we raise between $5,000 and $8,000. Last year there were 23 teams involved in the dip who raised about $60,000. Not bad for a few minutes of discomfort. Since the dip started 18 years ago, it has raised over $1 million! Not to brag or anything, but our crew has The Dip down to a science. We know exactly when to get there, when to get our garb on so that we’re not freezing before we even get wet. And the most important strategy we’ve worked out is how to claim a section of the big tent for dry pants, dry sweats, dry socks, dry boots – all lined up and ready for a very quick change! How cold you remain for the rest of the day depends on how fast you can transition from wet to dry. I hope the heaters are working in the big tent as that was an unfortunate malfunction last year.

POPPY

SILKIE

Poppy is a young sweet girl, looking for someone to teach her the ropes in life! She can be a bit on the bouncy side, and will have no problem showing you how much she loves you, but would love to work on some training and manners! Poppy would benefit from someone ready to dive into training with her! She’s nothing short of a goofy sweetheart, and is very excited to find her forever home! Could it be you? Pop by to see!

When it comes to being pet, Silkie can’t get enough, circling you and rubbing against you to keep you from stopping. Even if you’re sitting down, she’ll do a few laps over and around you before settling into your lap for as long as you’ll let her stay. She is not fond of other animals so will need a home where she doesn’t have to share your attention.

Kingsville light show raises over $3,200 for Canadian Cancer Society KINGSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Williams family of Kingsville once again marked the holiday season with a spectacular light show as a memorial to their mother and grandmother, the late Lois Williams. The light show drew hundreds of spectators. Many generously donated in Loisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; honour to benefit the Canadian Cancer Society, raising $3,265.05. They also offered a tribute board to honour those who have lost their battle with cancer and those who have fought cancer. The board will be on display at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Relay for Life. The mastermind of the tribute, Loisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; grandson Colton Williams, was joined by his family, mom Michelle and dad Doug, at the Cancer Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Windsor-Essex office on January 16 to present the donation.

Jan Watson Play starts at 7:30 p.m. Earl and Norma Dunmore won four times at the Meat Draws that were run by yours truly on January 12. Terry and Cindy Stevenson won three times and the other winners were Julie Reid, Marsha Howe, Sandra Harris and me. Randy Wright won the 50/50 draw. Beginning in February, Wheatley Legion is changing the ticket sales for the Meat Draws. It was unanimously agreed at last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Executive meeting to sell strips of five tickets for $2 each. This will reduce the hours spent to prepare the tickets and reduce the huge amount of tickets that end up in the garbage when the draws are done. It will also simplify preparation and sales and hopefully encourage more volunteers to help run the draws. A Memorial Get-Together will be held upstairs for Nelson Rutt this Saturday January 26 from 2 to 4 p.m. Nelson joined in the 1960s as a Fraternal member, then when the rules changed he became an Associate member and then, due to his loyalty and tireless efforts, he was honoured with a Life Membership. At the time of the fire that destroyed the original site in 1985, Nelson was instrumental in setting up the temporary location on Talbot East and worked tirelessly on the reconstruction at our present site. He served for three or four terms as Branch President and, at the Zone level, he served as Deputy Zone Commander and then as Zone Commander. Stop in on Saturday to honour this hardworking Legionnaire and his family. A Super Bowl Party will be held at the Branch on Sunday, February 3 starting at 2 p.m. There is a sign-up sheet on the sports bulletin board for Zone Darts being held in Essex on February 23. Each team must consist of two men/two women and doubles must consist of one man/one woman. If you plan to play, sign up as soon as possible as the deadline of February 2 is quickly approaching.

Cam Newman of the Lions makes a breakaway save against the Cougars’ Alex Demers during a WECSSAA Tier II boys hockey game at Highbury Canco Arena Wednesday, Jan. 16. Despite heavy third period pressure from Cardinal Carter, Leamington held on for a 2-0 win.

Lions shut out Cougars in boys hockey By Bryan Jessop

As 2019 grew steadily colder outside, the Leamington District Secondary School boys hockey team continued to heat up. After going winless in their first seven games, the Lions registered their second straight win with a 2-0 shutout victory over rival Cardinal Carter. The Cougars, officially listed as the visiting team for the third match of the season between the two teams, applied heavy pressure throughout the third period, but were consistently denied by a heavily-lauded performance in the LDSS net by Cam Newman. “We had a huge game from him today,” said Lions coach Butch Rickeard. “He was dialed in today for sure. The guys have taken on the challenge to get better with every game and the last three could have gone either way. Cardinal Carter has a great team and our players responded well.” Both teams had chances to open the scoring in the first, but Newman and Adam Zylstra at the Cougars’ end of the rink kept the game scoreless as of

the first buzzer. Both teams struggled on the power play until about two-and-a-half minutes into the second frame, when Kaleb Tiessen snapped a rebound into the goal at ice level from the left side of the Cardinal Carter net. Alex Stewart and Tanner Granger drew assists.

“Cardinal Carter has a great team and our players responded well.” — Butch Rickeard

Just over six minutes later, Jaxyn Lefeber wired a wrist shot into the top left corner from the slot, also while LDSS was on the man advantage. The Cougars, who put considerable pressure on the Lions’ net through most of the third stanza, intensified their attack by pulling Zylstra for the sixth skater with just under three minutes to go. Newman, however, made several pad saves to preserve his shutout. “We had a lot of chances — it was just one of those

days for us,” said Cougars head coach Ryan Coristine. “Their goalie played really well and they blocked a lot of shots. Leamington just did the things they needed to do to win the hockey game.” The win brought the Lions to within one point of the Lajeunesse Royals for fourth place in the WECSSAA Tier II division. The first playoff game in the division for 2019 will be a play-in match where fourth and fifth place teams go head to head for the right to meet the first place school in the semi finals. Leamington’s last game was played Monday, Jan. 19 against the first-place Massey Mustangs. The Cougars had two games remaining, with results from the January 19 match against Lajeunesse unavailable by press deadline. Cardinal Carter’s regular season will end after exams on Tuesday, Feb. 5 with a road game against the Riverside Rebels. If both local teams win their remaining regular season games and the Lions win the play-in, the Lions and Cougars will face each other for the fourth time this season in the semifinals.

Del Malott had a horse-drawn two-wheeled cart equipped with an ice-cooled meat box in which he delivered meat around town as well as to rural customers. The route followed the lake road to Oxley, then turned to follow the sideroad northward to the main road (County Road 20) and back to Kingsville. When a hand bell was rung or young son Donald (Butch) would knock at the door, potential customers came out of their houses to purchase meat for dinner. The meat was weighed on a scale brought along by the Malotts. Money, eggs or produce were exchanged to complete the transaction. The 1918 photograph shows the once familiar Malott Meat Market cart in front of an Oxley rooming house.

Stars weekend results The Southpoint Peewee Stars welcomed the Tecumseh Tiger Cats to the Unico rink on Sunday. This was an exciting game that saw both teams exchange goals in the second. The game ended in a 1-1 tie with Danika Romanyk providing the Stars’ offence, scoring an unassisted goal. Rebecca MacFarlane played amazing in net as she made several key saves to hold Tecumseh to a single goal. The Southpoint Bantam Stars battled the Kent County Fillies on Sunday afternoon. Both teams exchanged scoring chances, but only one shot found the back of the net when Ava Hildebrandt buried a rebound after a great rush and shot by Mya Brown, while Josie Wiper collected the other assist. Evan “The Wall” Gualtieri recorded another shutout as she made many magnificent saves throughout this game. The Southpoint Leamington Kinsmen Intermediate Stars tangled with the LaSalle Sabre Cats on Sunday evening at Unico. This was another close game that saw both teams exchange goals right to the bitter end. This game ended in a 4-4 tie. Stars goals were from Abby Gualtieri, Tarez Raheb, Megan Mercer and Krista Marshall. Assists were by Kelsey Babkirk (3), Adrian Gualtieri, Abby Gualtieri, Shelby Hunter and Kayla Collison.

Novice Red displays great teamwork After losing 6-0 to Kingsville Black last week, Southpoint’s Community Trophy Novice Red had something to prove when they met again Saturday, Jan. 19. The team was asked to fore-check, which they did, and for most of the first period, Kingsville was unable to get out of their end. However, even with the pressure Kingsville managed to score near the end of the first. Southpoint responded with a goal by Darius Quiring that he snuck under the goalie. Landon Carlini and London Hildebrand assisted. Sean Amaral scored Novice Reds’ second tally on a sharp angle shot. Assisting on the play were London Hildebrand and Jackson Weil. Kingsville scored one more in the second to tie the game. The final goal was made by Southpoint. Gavin Butineillo made a nice move on the goalie to put the puck in and was assisted by Sean Amaral and Carter Kretschmann. It was nice to see the strong effort and improved teamwork displayed by Southpoint.

Kingsville Novice Green team’s undefeated regular season faced its final test against a strong Southpoint Capitals Blue team. A spirited Green squad took to the ice knowing full well what was at stake and got on top early as Quinn Monminie continued his offensive dominance with an unassisted gem that set the tone. Keaton Morphet, Colby Snoei and Jasper Dunford connected on a beautiful tic-tac-toe passing sequence that was finished off by Dunford, who ended the day with two to match his goalscoring streak. Following a practice spent working on his transition footwork, William Loncke transitioned up ice à la Robert Gordon and finished off an end-to-end rush in style, adding to the lead. After some great efforts and unlucky bounces this season, Tyson Everaert’s back was lighter as he left the monkey at home and picked up his first goal of the year on a bullet snap shot from the hash marks. Monminie completed the hat trick plus one and Sam Ward stopped a penalty shot and plenty more, picking up a shutout in his best performance to date as the Machine picked up the 8-0 decision. The Green Machine carries momentum into the playoffs as they begin their quest for the championship next weekend.

Peewee Minor begins playdowns The Southpoint Franklin Fisheries Peewee Minor team was off to the first round of OMHA Playdowns last week, facing off against the Erie North Shore Storm in a four-point series. Game 1 was in Harrow. The Caps opened the scoring in the first when Max Youssef hit the net, assisted by Liam Ouellette and Colton Selwood. Erie answered back in the second to tie it up. Southpoint took the lead again with a goal scored by Selwood, assisted by Youssef. Erie tied it up before the end of the period, making it 2-2 heading into the third. Erie got the go-ahead goal with less that five minutes left in the game. At just under two minutes left to play, Selwood tied it up again, assisted by Youssef and Nick Mastromatteo. With 3.8 seconds left, Tyler Franklin scored, assisted by Selwood and Taylor Insley. The Caps led the series with two points. Game 2 took place in Wheatley. Erie did not back down and walked through to the end of the second period with a

Novice Major A defeats Predators The Southpoint Point Pelee Karting Novice Major A Capitals hosted the Erie North Shore Predators on Sunday evening, Jan. 20. Southpoint came out flying right from the opening faceoff, garnering numerous scoring chances while controlling the play. It wasn’t until midway through the opening period that the Caps were able to get on the board. Charlie Ketler kept the puck in at the line and fired a nice shot just wide of the net so the bounce off the back boards came right out front of the goal. Brody Brown was in the slot and banged in the rebound. A few shifts later, with Zack Bradley and Sloan Smith battling in front, Brown found the loose puck and wrapped around the net to stuff it in the far side to take a two-goal lead. Southpoint continued to keep the play in the offensive zone most of the rest of the way, but was unable to add to its lead. Erie North Shore pulled their goalie for an extra attacker, but Jonathan Recker was able to corral a puck and send it to the slot to Tyler Thomas who flipped it into the open cage to guarantee a Southpoint 3-0 victory. Karly Franklin stopped all the shots directed her way to earn a shutout in the win.

4-0 lead until Insley finally put the Caps on the board, assisted by Selwood. Erie added another to close the second at 5-1. In the third, Erie added another three goals and then Matteo Pereira scored, assisted by Selwood and Franklin. Domenic Bordignon scored on an assist from Insley and Mastromatteo. Pereira put one more in, assisted by Selwood, but so did Erie. The damage was done with a 9-4 win, forcing a push to Game 3. Facing off in Kingsville, this one was a replay of Game 2 in that Erie went up 4-0 by the end of the second. The Caps finally saw the board when Christopher McLean set up Insley for their first goal. They hammered two more home, with Franklin scoring, assisted by Pereira, and Insley, assisted by Selwood. Going for the tie, the Caps pulled the goalie, but Erie broke free from their end and landed an empty netter, sealing the series. As always, the Caps played hard and now look forward to the upcoming Bluewater playoffs.

The Kings trailed 2-0 after the first, but stormed back and held on for a 5-4 victory to achieve their second consecutive win. A day earlier, the Kings snapped a six-game losing streak with an 8-2 victory in London against the Lakers. Kingsville’s own Zachary Dillen scored twice in the second period, before and after a Richard Boruta tally. Mason Shumate tied the game for Niagara, but Zan Markic regained the Kingsville lead in the final minute of the second frame. Matyas Mach netted the game winner in the third before Blake Hembruff potted a power play goal for the Whalers in the third. (Southpoint Sun Photo)

Admirals get even with Sharks By Bryan Jessop

to close the gap through the remainder of the period, but could not beat Ratko a second time despite outshooting Amherstburg by a two to one margin through the last 20 minutes. Wheatley registered a shots on goal advantage of 35-26, but went zero for six on the power play while the Admirals were a more successful one for three. “The second period really cost us the game and our power play let us down,” explained Sharks head coach Josh Carnevale. “That’s something we’ve got to fix moving forward — the power play is what makes or breaks you in the playoffs.” For the game, the Sharks donned the same new alternate jerseys as for the Saturday, Jan. 12 outdoor game against Blenheim. The players selected the predominantly gold and black colour scheme while the logo was designed in a collaborative effort between Dean Outhouse of Outhouse Image and Design of Chatham and Sharks’ media relations rep Jason Hope. The logo is made up of a large “W” reminiscent of

(formerly UTI)

the one found in the logo of the NHL’s former Hartford Whalers with a swimming shark in the foreground. The Sharks do not play Wednesday, Jan. 23 but will travel to Petrolia to take on the Flyers Thursday, Jan. 24 at 7:30 p.m. After an 8 p.m. Monday, Jan. 28 contest in Dresden, Wheatley will return home for its final regular season game Wednesday, Jan. 30 at 7:30 p.m. on home ice against the Blades. As per the team’s tradition, the Sharks will honour their outgoing overagers with a pre game ceremony. For 2018-’19, these players will include forwards Delaney MacDonald of Windsor, Cole Butler of Belle River and Parker Boyle of Lakeshore and defenseman Mitch Lantin of Lakeshore. The first round of playoffs will likely pit the Sharks against either the Lakeshore Canadiens or Dresden Kings. “They’ve got the potential to go all the way,” Carnevale said of Lakeshore. “They’re deep from top to bottom. They’re not a team with one or two guys you’ve got to look out for — it’s 12 guys you’ve got to look out for.”

The Wheatley Omstead Sharks are finding that for 2019, there’s no place like the road. The Sharks brought a two-game winning streak into last week’s home game while trying to catch the Blenheim Blades for sixth place in the Stobbs Division, but suffered a setback via a 3-1 loss to the visiting Amherstburg Admirals. The loss followed a 5-2 win at Lanspery Park in Windsor against the Blades and a 3-1 victory the following day in Amherstburg. The first period was largely evenly matched, although the Sharks built a 12-9 shots on goal advantage thanks to a man advatnage of nearly six straight minutes. Admirals goalie Jared Ratko however played a large role in the 0-0 tie that the two sides settled for going into the first intermission. The faltering Wheatley power play kept the hosts off the scoreboard for most of the first 40 minutes while Amherstburg started making the most of five-on-four advantages. Broden Meloche opened the scoring for the guests while the teams were at even strength before Josh DiCarlo made it 2-0 during an Admirals power play. With three seconds to go before the secondl buzzer, Parker Boyle solved Ratko after being set up by Delaney MacDonald and Curtis Rodrigues. Bryce McGregor regained the visitors’ two-goal lead by beating Catalin Morin about six-and-a-half minutes into the third frame. The Sharks made a noteworthy effort

Another match against a neighbouring rival ended with another step towards securing second place in the Western Conference for the Leamington Flyers. For the second time in as many weeks, the Flyers handed a 4-1 loss to a nearby opponent to keep the upper hand in the challenge to finish ahead of the Chatham Maroons. The Thursday, Jan. 17 match against the LaSalle Vipers was a coin toss until Leamington’s forward lines caught traction early in the third. With the victory, the Flyers pulled one point ahead of the Maroons with three games in hand. The first period was a largely uneventful one through the final 19 minutes. Fifty seconds after the opening faceoff, Thomas Michaud took a swipe at the puck which in turn foiled LaSalle goalie Will Tragge with an odd bounce that sent it over the goal line. Leamington went on to establishing an 11-7 shots on goal advantage, although the home team had to settle for the one-goal lead to begin the second frame. The bounces had less of a tendency to go the Flyers’ way in the middle period, where the Vipers’ offense was more of a factor than in the first. Danny Skinner beat Zach Borgiel to the far, right side with a low wrist shot

trigger against Tragge. Colton O’Brien ventured in from the point during a Flyers power play for a chance from the slot, but hit the right post squarely. Leamington’s own Adam Jeffery buried the game winner early in the last period during a delayed penalty against the Vipers. In a two-

on-one play, Jeffery took a feed from Michael Andrews and fired a shot that the LaSalle netminder initially stopped. Tragge however allowed the puck to fall to the ice and lost sight of it as it rolled over the goal line. Ryan Gagnier drew the second assist. Fifteen-year-old AAA minor midget affiliate player Jake Eaton notched the first insurance tally, spinning around in the slot to face the Vipers’ net and sink an ice level shot past a screened Tragge after being set up by Wyatt O’Neil and Matthew Boring. “It was a pretty good feeling,” said Eaton, a Kingsville resident. “It was exciting to score my first Junior B goal. I’d really like to make the team for next season.” The scoring ended with one second left in a double power play when Gagnier

snapped a rebound under the crossbar after Tragge stopped a shot by Jeffery. Zach Taylor also assisted. “This team takes pride in being strong in the third period — it’s what we’ve done all year,” explained Flyers head coach Cam Crowder. A Saturday, Jan. 19 road game in Komoka against the Kings was postponed by hazardous weather and road conditions. The Flyers played a Sunday, Jan. 20 afternoon home game against the Sarnia Legionnaires for Pizza Day courtesy of Dominos and produced a 4-0 win. Andrews, Spencer Lecot, O’Brien and Adam Groat scored for Leamington as Ryan Polidori registered the shutout with 41 saves. The Flyers’ next home game will be played Thursday, Jan. 24 at 7:10 p.m. when they host the Western Conference leading London Nationals.

Essex Atom AE wins silver in Buffalo The Essex Atom AE squad recently ventured to Buffalo, New York, to participate in the Buffalo River Outdoor Classic Tournament Series. The squad had to brave the outdoor weather elements in this tournament. It was played in outdoor rinks, an experience that each player will remember for a lifetime. It was noted to team officials that the boards and player benches at the Healthzone rink were those used in the very first outdoor NHL game ever played in Buffalo in 2006 at Ralph Wilson Stadium, a game won by the Pittsburg Penguins 2-1 in OT. Even the freezing weather couldn’t dishearten the team from performing very well. They finished the round robin version of the tournament in second place behind Ashburn, Virginia, who they also faced in the tourney finals. Tournament Results: Game 1 - Essex Ravens, 2 Rochester NY 1; Game 2 - Essex Ravens 2, Ashburn VA 4; Game 3 - Essex Ravens 3, Johnstown PA 3; Game 4 - Essex Ravens 7, Flint MI 1; Finals - Essex Ravens 1, Ashburn VA 3 (1 en). The coaches congratulate the team on an outstanding showing in the tournament. Stand proud of your accomplishments and carry your successes forward into the upcoming playoffs. Job well done!

The Essex Atom AE Ravens recently won silver at the Buffalo River Outdoor Classic Tournament Series. Team members are, in no particular order, Alexandrea Huntley, Nathan Lozon, Ethan Bastien, Cole Gossmann, Keegan Stack, Mathieu Jakovcic, Mason Dault, Caiden St. John, James Sonoski, Ellis Fleming, Austin Hamilton, Nicholas Brophey, Brendan Ledoux, Hudson Diemer, Ty Patterson, Zac Grein, Ryan Reid, Kegan Zimmermann and Eric Patterson.

SPCC hosts mixed two-day bonspiel Twelve area teams arrived at the Leamington Sun Parlour Curling Club rink on Saturday, January 12 for a mixed two-day bonspiel, attempting to use their group prowess to sweep and slide their way to victory. At the end of Sunday, after four friendly yet fierce games, great food and enthusiastic fans, the Zappio team from the Tecumseh Beach Grove Curling Club came out on top. Congratulations to Chris Zappio, Lynne Kanters, Mike and Laurie Graf. Well done! Close behind were the Sun Parlour club’s Tim Stevenson and the Rob Squire teams. It was a fabulous competition, and regardless of ranking, each team thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. There are many opportunities to try curling at the Sun Parlour Curling Club. The next Fun Night is Saturday, Jan. 26 at 7 p.m., 55 Seacliff Dr. E. The night offers an introduction to curling and some instruction. All you need to bring are clean indoor shoes, stretchy pants, warm clothes and money for pizza.
