LEAMINGTON – The days are numbered for a 58-yearold Leamington landmark. The Visitor Information Booth located at the wedgeshaped intersection of Talbot Street West and Mill Street West — known by residents and tourists alike as “The Big Tomato” — was the focal point of a report to municipal council following months of consideration regarding the structure’s future. In the report, which included the results of a study conducted by RC Spencer Associates Inc., administration recommended to council that the tomatoshaped booth be demolished in part to make way for a multi-use public space. Council approved of the recommendation, although the existing structure will not likely be dismantled until a design and size for a new, artistic replacement is selected. Administration’s recommendations also included redirecting the booth’s purpose as a tourist information centre to other outlets including permanent and mobile kiosks and redeveloped online sources. Council approved the recommendations. “The way that visitors have accessed information in recent years has changed drastically,” explained manager of economic development, tourism and special events James Cox, who described trained ambassadors as a third means of providing tourists and guests to Leamington with information on its attractions, resources and events. As part of the demolition request, it was suggested to council that a new “Big Tomato” be constructed for strictly artistic/visual purposes. Some members of council and administration expressed an interest in seeing the new tomato built at the same location as the version built in the early 1960s while others thought a new location could be ideal in order to offer the Leamington Art Centre more usable outdoor space immediately west of its building. Currently owned by the municipality and operated by the Leamington and District Chamber of Commerce, the booth has served as a distribution centre for literature on local attractions and events since its construction was completed in May of 1961. Up until this year, the Leamington Chamber of Commerce arranged for volunteer ambassadors to operate the booth. In the spring, however, the structure was deemed unsafe for ambassadors to occupy, as mould and leakage issues, which were thought to be remedied last fall, resurfaced. (Continued on Page 2)

(Continued from Front) The report from RC Spencer indicated that although the wooden framework beneath the red-painted plaster seemed to be in good condition, a “significant amount of black mould” was found inside. Also, the exterior plaster revealed signs of deterioration while the door and window hatches, subject to a “significant amount of rusting,” were not sealing properly. The plaster also contains silica, deemed a ‘designated substance’ under the Occupational Health and Safety Act. Such identification indicates a substance poses potential health or safety risks to workers. Although transporting the existing booth to a new location after refurbishing it was presented as an option to council, the RC Spencer report noted that doing so would come at both a significant price and risk. Required repairs alone would come in at an estimated cost of $30,000 or $15,000 or more without upholding the structure’s capacity to serve as a tourist information booth. Relocating the Big Tomato would cost an additional $20,000 and expose it to the risk of irreversible damage. RC Spencer’s study also compared public usage of the Tomato Visitor Information Booth with online visits through the year 2018. Of the 400,000-plus who visited Point Pelee National Park, less than 1,500 made a stop at The Big Tomato. Meanwhile, the website leamingtononthe42.com had 22,844 website visitors, 59,807 page views and 454,258 hits. Cox noted that the website is on course to surpass its visitor numbers for 2019. The suggested Visitor Information Services strategy also calls for a mobile information kiosk for usage at special events, two permanent information kiosks, 10 small-scale information kiosks and training sessions for tourism ambassadors. Including costs associated with producing a video
for ambassador training, the combined cost is an estimated $23,000. The VIS project would be launched as a pilot next year, with additional kiosks to be bought and displayed in future years in the event that the trial proves successful. To continue recognition of the tomato as a segment of Leamington’s history and culture, the Spencer report noted that a new ‘Big Tomato’ could be constructed using coloured stucco and a foam ‘skin’. With an option to be built at the Mill/Talbot site or any other desired location, the projected cost ranges from $20,000 to $25,000. The Tuesday, Sept. 11 meeting was attended by Leamington and District Chamber of Commerce president Jen Dawson and general manager Wendy Parsons. Dawson explained that the Chamber “overwhelmingly” supports the report’s recommendations while both of the organization’s representatives noted that a new ‘Big Tomato’ would be crucial in reflecting the community’s identity. “We’re very confident in saying that we feel a visible presence of the tomato is important,” said Dawson. “It’s important to save that visual representation.” Chief Administrative Officer Peter Neufeld explained that a new tomato could be smaller than the original to preserve space for multi-purpose public use and for use by the neighbouring Arts Centre. Echoing Mayor Hilda MacDonald’s sentiments, he explained that there are members of the community interested in weighing in on the new design. Earlier, MacDonald explained that with potential investment from interested local parties, a new tomato could possibly be built without taxpayer dollars. “To me, this is all part of an evolution,” she said. “We can’t be stuck in 1950. We need to be current and we need to look current. We need a tomato, but do we need that 1960s tomato?”
Suspect located in Windsor
LEAMINGTON – The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) launched an appeal to the public to assist with an investigation initiated on July 21, 2019 in Leamington. At approximately 5 p.m., the victim was walking on Emerson Avenue when approached from behind by the suspect. The suspect struck the victim with a weapon and demanded money. On September 11, a 30-year-old Leamington man was arrested by members of the City of Windsor Police Service after receiving a tip from the public on his whereabouts. The man was charged with robbery, forcible confinement, uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm, and three counts of failure to comply with recognizance and was remanded in custody.

Just a little patience In recent weeks, my wife received a rather fancy-looking Coca-Cola glass as part of a meal deal from McDonald’s. There’s no point in asking her if she’s enjoyed using it — our eight-year-old grabs it to use during supper or for a quick drink of milk every time it makes its way from the dishwasher to the cupboards. The scenario triggered memories of preferred drinking glasses in my family when I was a kid. My go to was a yellow and black plastic cup depicting a crestfallen Charlie Brown, dragging his baseball glove and bat back home with “Winning isn’t everything, but losing isn’t anything!” printed on the bottom. My mom’s seemed to be a grey coffee mug with a banner stating “Grant me patience Lord, but hurry! I guess coffee mug humour was a lot less risque in the ‘70s. Bryan Jessop Now more so than ever, I wish the Lord would grant ME patience. I become particularly irate when caught in traffic conditions that don’t allow me to motor along at my preferred rate of speed (I know I’m not the only one pushed to the brink of madness when forced to drive 15 km/hr below the speed limit on Highway 3 between Leamington and Wheatley). On my way to the Wheatley Sharks’ exhibition game against Amherstburg earlier this month, I approached a car ahead of me waiting to make a left hand turn. There was a lengthy parade of vehicles coming the other way and not wanting to sit behind the turning driver for an eternity, I maneuvered to the right to go around him. Turns out I moved a little TOO far to the right and struck a curb with both passenger-side tires. The sound of impact was pretty loud, but there was no ensuing wobbling or thumping noise to indicate damaged rims, tires or steering/suspension parts, so I continued on my merry way. When I arrived at the arena parking lot, I took a quick look at the two right-side tires… you know, just in case. Turns out the sidewall of the front tire had a “goose egg” poking out of it that was about the size of a tennis ball. There was another on the back tire about half that size. How I made it to the arena without that front right tire blowing wide open is beyond me. Making a valiant effort to keep the four-letter expletives under my breath so as not to attract the attention of arriving spectators, I took the space saver spare out of the trunk and read the recommended inflation specs printed on the sidewall… 60 psi! Luckily, I had a tire pressure gauge in the car and measured it — 15 psi. I’m also lucky enough to keep a portable tire pump in the trunk. Suffice it to say, I missed the first few minutes of the first period. The car’s factory jack is a scissor type, similar to the one that almost crushed me years ago when it buckled under the weight of the ’78 Trans Am I was working on at the time. I’ve never crawled under a car without using safety jacks since then. Getting back to September 4, 2019, the genius who designed the jack’s ratcheting bar made it a bit too short, so lifting that passenger front tire off the lot’s surface took even more time than inflating the spare. I swear I could feel the blood in my veins boiling by that point. The bottom line turned out to be two new tires at a price of just over $300. Impatience can be costly. I try to teach my son patience when we’re playing Minecraft. He likes the “Creative” version, where you can just grab all the top-of-the-line supplies, weapons, tools and materials from a menu grid whenever your heart desires them. I insist that “Survival” is the better mode, where it takes time and effort to EARN those things. “You have to make due with the wood, stone and iron of the world before you can get to the diamonds,” I tell him. Sadly, the kid rarely has the patience for that. Wonder where he got THAT from.

LEAMINGTON – Offering a meal to some of the region’s most generous residents will again ensure meals can be provided to impoverished regions around the globe. The annual Leamington and Area Poor Boy Luncheon marked its 20th anniversary Wednesday, Sept. 11 at the Roma Club, where more than 400 guests converged in support of two locally operated causes. The Southwestern Ontario Gleaners and Leamington and Area Toys For Tots were the recipients of a combined $15,000 raised by this year’s luncheon. Last year, about $12,500 was split between the two organizations. In addition to patrons who paid either $8 in advance or $10 at the door for tickets to this year’s luncheon, another sizeable list of local sponsors and supporters stepped forward to make the yearly fundraiser a success. ‘Gold’ sponsors — contributors of $500 or more — included Leamington GM, Uni-Fab, UE Enclosures, Windsor Laser Cutting Inc., Reid Funeral Home, the Roma Club, Ordonez Cattle Farms and Colasanti’s Tropical Gardens for the luncheon’s 20th installment.

Soups, available in both vegetarian and meat-based varieties, was prepared by the Southwest Ontario Gleaners using their dehydrated vegetable soup mix as a base. The local Gleaners have taken the luncheon’s helm from its founder John Woelk, although the committee of 11 members that organizes the event is made up of representatives of various groups operating in the Leamington area, including Woelk. Many of the luncheon’s volunteers are recruited from the same group of individuals that often volunteers for the Gleaners’ operation on Industrial Drive. Support for the Gleaners and local Toys For Tots is also generated through the Poor Boy Luncheon by means of a silent auction. The fundraiser within a fundraiser, formerly presented as a raffle, is made up of bidding items donated by local businesses, groups, families and individuals. This year’s supply came to a total of about 40 products, gift cards 239 Rd 5 Between Hwy 77 and Albuna Townline and services for guests to submit bids.

LEAMINGTON – The region’s personal support worker shortage could soon be addressed with a ‘Made in Leamington’ solution. The municipality has entered into an agreement with the Erie St. Clair Local Health Integrated Network (ESC LHIN) to host a new training program known as “Grow Your Own PSW.” The 29-week program’s students will be trained by Saint Elizabeth Health Career Colleges personnel, starting in October of this year and concluding in early May of 2020. The PSW training program must receive a minimum of 12 students to operate in what will start as a pilot project and can carry up to a maximum of 24. In a report to council, Grow Your Own PSW is described as both a strategy towards filling the need for more personal support workers in the ESC LHIN catchment area and a means of offering skill development, training and employment for individuals in Leamington and surrounding communities. Guests at the Sep“For us to have tember 11 meeting — an opportunity like ESC LHIN’s Hollie this in our Rice-Mitchell, Debra community I think Groen of Assisted Living Southwestern Onis a bonus.” tario and Saint Eliza— Mayor Hilda beth Healthcare’s Kim MacDonald Utley — explained that not only is the 29-week program free of tuition fees, but students receive a wage while training. The course begins with a four-week home support worker (HSW) program and continues from there with the sponsored PSW training. With course hours running from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., students will have time to work for their sponsoring agencies during early morning and evening hours. The HSW segment of the project features four days in the ‘lab’ practicing specific skills, five days in a community setting and eight days in a classroom. The municipality has agreed to offer the Leamington Kinsmen Recreation Complex’s Locker Room Lounge as the location as the training facility at the ‘Minor Sports Daily Rate’ of $95 — the cheapest of the three available per-day fees, which also includes a non-profit rate of $280 and a profit group rate of $380. The program’s organizers at Saint Elizabeth describe the Locker Room Lounge as an ideal facility to host the course. “The number of (retirement) homes in Leamington make it an ideal location as a training ground,” noted Mayor Hilda MacDonald. “For us to have an opportunity like this in our community I think is a bonus.” Supervisor of membership services and marketing Geoff Stephenson noted that the hours Grow Your Own PSW would be utilizing the Locker Room Lounge would make for a minimal if any impact on organizations that normally use the second-floor facility. Rice-Mitchell explained that the diploma program could be delayed by up to a couple weeks if necessary in order to recruit the minimum number of required students, although anywhere from 10 to 12 students are currently “ready to go.” Members of council including John Hammond and Bill Dunn expressed enthusiastic sentiments of support for the project, which is offered through a LHIN in only one other Ontario community — Sarnia. Additionally, council agreed to provide support to Grow Your Own PSW by offering a grant through the municipality’s contingency reserve.
Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill. In life, we loved you dearly, in death, we love you still. Gone, yet not forgotten, although we are apart, Your spirit lives within us, forever in our hearts. Love You Forever, Marilyn, Jeff, Jen, Joel, Jodi, Kailey, Jacey and Brayden

2019 Kingsville Terry Fox Run KINGSVILLE – Terry Fox’s 39th annual run held in Kingsville on Sunday, September 15 had 199 in attendance and raised $10,595 for cancer research. The weather conditions weren’t perfect for the runners, walkers and cyclists as rain started just as the run began. Despite the rain, participants enjoyed the camaraderie, hotdogs, veggies, great door prizes, music with DJ Cam Sarkis, and balloons and tattoos with Jangles the Clown. After the run, participants enjoyed massages with Julia Bennett and reflexology with Sara Friesen and Marg Wall, as well as foot care with Emily Stevenson. Special thanks to the hard working Terry Fox Run Committee, as well as Maggie Durocher and the Kingsville Parks and Recreation staff for a well orchestrated run. Kingsville organizer Marilyn Farnworth thanked the local businesses who donated the door prizes for this worthy cause: Dominos Pizza, Kingsville Legion, Kingsville Dis-
trict High School and Royal Oak LTC for their generous monetary donations. Zehrs, FreshCo, Tim Hortons and Pure Flavor donated the food, veggies, coffee and water for the event. “With a recent announcement of $150 million federal funding for the new Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network, the Foundation is renewed in its dedication to bringing precision medicine to every Canadian diagnosed with cancer. This will be a phenomenal breakthrough for cancer patients and our pledges will help to support this new initiative,” said Farnworth. “Kingsville is definitely a town with a big heart and a very supportive community! We look forward to seeing everyone out again next September 20th for the 40th annual Terry Fox Run. Terry has shown the world that one person can definitely make a difference,” concluded Farnworth.

$4,150 donated to Fight Like Mason Foundation with help from customers ESSEX COUNTY – With the help of their customers, Essex Powerlines (EPL) is donating $4,150 to the Fight Like Mason Foundation through its recent paperless billing campaign, Power Up for Paperless. The campaign provided customers the opportunity to save paper and donate $10 to the “Fight Like Mason Foundation” simply by signing up for paperless billing. For every customer that signed up for paperless billing, Essex Powerlines donated $10. The campaign ran from July 23 to September 6 and had exceptional support from the community, generating $4,150 for the foundation and showing local support for such a powerful cause. “We would like to thank our customers for participating in the Power Up for Paperless campaign. The unprecedented support our customers have for local organizations, such as the Fight Like Mason Foundation is truly inspiring. Together, we were able to make a difference and contribute $4,150 towards defeating the villain for good,” said Joe Barile, General Manager, Essex Powerlines Corporation. “We want to continue Mason’s legacy. And through this charity, we can see his impact on the community around us,” said Iain Macri, Fight Like Mason Foundation. “For us to be able to do this, we feel honoured to do this for Mason. So, thank you very much for being a part of that legacy.” Fight Like Mason Foundation is a local registered charity organization formed by Iain Macri and Chantelle Bacon, parents of Mason Bacon-Macri. Mason was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma at the age of two and passed away at the age of four. The mission of the Fight Like Mason Foundation is to improve treatment, care, quality of life and awareness of patients diagnosed with childhood rhabdomyosarcoma and other childhood cancers (www.fightlikemason.org). Essex Powerlines Corporation is a regulated company that provides safe, reliable, and economical electrical distribution and service to 30,000 customers within four municipalities of Essex County – Leamington, Amherstburg, Tecumseh and LaSalle.

Wheatley benefitting from the Romney Wind Project By Sheila McBrayne
WHEATLEY – The Community of Wheatley will receive $25,000 per year for the next 20 years from EDS Renewable, owners of the Romney Wind Energy Centre. That’s a $500,000 investment in the improvement of Wheatley. Kim Grant is the liaison with EDS Renewables for the Wheatley Area Community Fund. “I got involved honestly… I saw in their ad that my house was in the zone of their project that I knew nothing about, so I called them,” she said. Grant has since found the company very community-minded. “They’ve done a lot for the community already, and have set aside this money for community projects,” she said. On Thursday night, September 12 at the monthly Active Citizens of Wheatley (formerly Concerned Citizens of Wheatley) meeting, Mark Gallagher, Development Manager at EDS Renewable presented eight cheques for eight different community projects. Recipients included: • Wheatley Area Public School – computers • Hometown Heroes – pole brackets for banners • Renwick Ridgeview Acres – sign for Wheatley • Active Citizens-Trails – solar lighting • Wheatley Junior Hockey Club - expenses • Wheatley Area Minor Soccer – new soccer field • Wheatley BIA – garbage containers • Southwest Outdoors Club – bikes for Kids Fishing Derby The awards ranged from $1,161.18 to the maximum of $5,000. A total of 19 applications were received vying for a piece of the $25,000. A committee, including Ward 1, West Kent Councillors Melissa Harrigan, Mark Authier, Gallagher and other EDS representatives, reviewed the applications to make sure they met the required criteria and then selected the priority projects. According to Grant, the successful applicants had very specific projects that outlined a budget and benefitted the community as a whole. Applications for next year will be available online by March. Watch the Southpoint Sun, the Active Citizens of Wheatley Facebook page or Kimberly Grant Facebook page for when applications will be accepted. Gallagher stated that the model of the Wheatley Community Fund is now being used at all their projects. In addition to money being paid into the Municipality, a specific fund for the benefit of the immediate community is also created with funds being administered each year for local projects. “This is something we are very proud to be a part of, and to be able to help the direct communities where we are,” said Gallagher. Projects considered for support: • Community services and development • Youth services • Arts and education • Environmental • Health and social services • Other local projects demonstrating widespread support within the community.

Flyers blank Stars in home opener By Bryan Jessop
After making their presence known to the other two conferences in the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League, the Leamington Flyers proceeded to make an early impression on their own back home in the West. Leamington’s strong start to the 2019-’20 campaign continued Thursday, Sept. 12 with a 6-0 home opening win over the visiting St. Thomas Stars to build a 3-0-0-0 record after its first trio of games. The first of the season at Highbury Canco Arena was paced by key contributions from rookie and veteran players alike, although the Stars kept the game scoreless for nearly 30

minutes. The Flyers’ offense was the dominant force through most of the first period, although the home team had to settle for a scoreless draw going into the first intermission. Lucas Bain was tested frequently in the Stars’ net once Leamington forwards settled in, but the hosts’ attackers struggled to come up with rebounds. Bain blocked 11 shots while returning Flyers’ goalkeeper Ryan Polidori stopped each of six. The Stars’ offense jumped out to a livelier start in the second, although Polidori kept them off the scoreboard with timely saves including one on a St. Thomas breakaway. At the other end, Bain was finally solved after a Wyatt O’Neil wrist shot from inside the faceoff circle grazed the netminder’s glove and proceeded to trickle over the goal line and into the right side of the net. Thomas Michaud drew the assist. Seventy-three seconds later, rookie Nicholas Beneteau beat Bain with a high wrist shot that sailed
under over his shoulder and under the crossbar to find the mesh. Fellow rookie Cam Symons earned the lone assist. The home team’s defense tightened its grip on control of the puck in its own zone for the final period, where St. Thomas was outshot 12-5 for a game total of 3720. O’Neil struck again with the game’s first power play marker, beating Bain cleanly with a wrist shot after being set up by Kade McKibbon and Spencer Lecot. The goal marked O’Neil’s fourth point in the season’s first three games. “Last year he was on our fourth line and still had 16 goals,” noted Flyers’ head coach Cam Crowder. “He’s getting more opportunities this year and he’s taking advantage of that.” Supported by feeds from Adam Jeffery and Dylan Montie, Lucas Fancy made it 4-0 on a rush by blasting a shot that Bain again partially blocked. The puck had just enough momentum however to trickle over the goal line before he could turn around
and stop it with his stick. Newcomers Cameron Blanton and Jacob Kalandyk added the last two in the final minute of play on the
man advantage and at even strength, respectively. Beneteau, Jaydon Fetter, King
and Cameron Armstrong drew assists. (Continued on page 20)

Atom Minor wins two
Hyatt wins Doc McLean Invitational
This past weekend, the Southpoint Point Pelee Karting Minor Atom Capitals won a pair of games in Bluewater League action. On Saturday, Sept. 14, Southpoint hosted the Belle River Canadiens in a matinee matchup at Highbury Canco Arena. After a slow and sloppy start in this contest, the Caps eventually found their legs and took over play, dominating on the ice as well as the scoreboard. Tyler Thomas led the way with two goals and an assist, while Ben Liebrock netted a pair. Owen Derksen fired in a goal to go with two assists, while Brayden Foster and Zack Bradley each contributed a goal and an assist. Jonathan Recker and AJ Youssef both chipped in assists to help the home team to a 7-3 victory. On Sunday, Sept. 15 the Capitals travelled to the WFCU Centre to face off with the Riverside Rangers. Although Southpoint fell behind early in this game, their determination could not be denied. They scored often, and if the Rangers happened to try and claw back into the game with a goal, the Capitals answered immediately with a goal of their own. Tyler Thomas again led his team, firing in a hat trick and

adding an assist. Kayden Cook and Brayden Foster both added two goals apiece to help their cause. Zack Bradley, Sloan Smith and AJ Youssef each added a goal and an assist, while Charlie Ketler, with a beautiful pass, chipped in an assist as well. Southpoint played a better all-around game and it showed as they skated away with a convincing 10-4 win. Karly Franklin, between the pipes for both games, stood tall in net, making key saves earning both Ws for her Southpoint squad.

On Wednesday, Sept. 11, the Talbot Trail Senior Invitational was won by Brad Hyatt. Brad’s sensational three under par 69 captured his victory over the field of 60+ participants. In August, Brad won the Jack Stein Men’s Invitational by shooting an amazing 69. Brad has won this tournament nine times. I’m sure a tenth victory is just around the corner. The golf course was in superb condition on this beautiful golfing day. Greenskeeper Derek Brown and his fellow workers Robert Gillespie, Phil Humphries and Lloyd Symons had the course in excellent playing condition. The participants enjoyed a tasty breakfast before they played. After their golf games, they were able to enjoy a delicious perch dinner. A tournament can’t be held without its terrific volunteers. Thanks are extended to Mary Ellen Charko, Patty Hopper, Lynn Dunn and the McLean brothers’ wonderful wives – Joyce, Judy and Melanie – for making this day a success. Pro shop manager Caleb did a terrific job at organizing and running this tournament. He was supported by his staff, Miranda, Kylie, Taylor, Annie and Monica. The group was entertained by the “Two Jims” who strummed their guitars as they sang three songs. Great jobs, guys! Youngster Caleb didn’t know who the Everly Brothers were, but we did. The history of how the golf course was started by the 14 founders was outlined by Bob. The course was only a dream in 1963. After a lot of planning and hard work by the founders, the Wheatley Rolling Acres Golf Course opened in 1966. Initially, the founders each put in $1,000 towards the purchase of a 74-acre farm owned by Jack McIntosh. They were donating the money without ever receiving interest or repayment. A supportive Wheatley public encouraged this big project to proceed! On Wednesday, the final three founders – Murray McLean, Earl Pinch and Reg Willett –were recognized for their contributions in making the golf course a reality. Murray McLean enjoyed playing golf and he diligently participated on many work crews until the course was completed. Earl Pinch, an electrician, helped on many work crew projects. He also wired the first clubhouse. Reg Willet, who rarely golfed, was a tireless worker. Dad often said that Reg always seemed to be at the course helping or working on his own. Those golfers who enjoy playing the Talbot Trail course today can see pictures of these 14 visionary founders on the north wall as they enter the clubhouse. The low net winner for the field was Mike Wright. Both Brad and Mike received substantial cash prizes for their exceptional play. Other winners were Ken Krueger (2nd place), Tom Dunn, Bill Ward, Joe Vrtel, Roger Lamb, Ken Drummond, Mark Bell, Carl Robinson, Jamie Arquette, Dave Omstead, Dutchy, Bob Stasiuk, Jeff Hutchinson, Greg Gare, Bob McLean, and Pete Daudlin. Instead of skins, there were eight closest to the pins and long putts. Ten draws were conducted and the winners each received gift cards for varying money amounts. The McLean brothers look forward to everyone at this tournament again next year.

Bryce Tracey of the Kingsville Kings blasts a shot at the Renegades’ net while Michael Askov attempts to block during a Sunday, Sept. 15 GMHL match at the Kingsville Arena Complex.
Kings fall to Ravens, Renegades The Kingsville Kings’ second weekend of the regular season wasn’t as good as their first. Friday the 13th turned out to be rather unlucky for Kingsville’s GMHL squad, as it dropped a 7-6 overtime decision in St. George against the Ravens. Ondrej Benda and Bryce Tracey scored in the first to tie the score at 2-2, although the Ravens added another for the 3-2 lead going into the first intermission. St. George took a two-goal lead about midway through the second before Tracey struck for his second of the night. The hosts’ third power play tally made it 5-3 until Tracey completed the hat trick about three minutes later. The Ravens again scored late in the period to once again pull into a two-goal lead. The Kings bounced back in the third, starting with Trac-

ey’s fourth of the game. Kingsville resident Zachary Dillen tied the game with about nine-and-a-half minutes in regulation. The hosts buried the game winner 16 seconds into the fourth frame. Two days later at the Kingsville Arena Complex, the Kings hosted the North York Renegades in what ended as a 7-2 loss for the home team. The teams traded goals starting with an early North York marker. Dexter Gourlay tied the game for Kingsville and after going down 2-1, Pavel Svoboda did the same. The Renegades potted the game winner 12 seconds later before adding two more in the middle stanza and another pair in the third. The Kings outshot their guests 43-41. Kingsville’s next home game will be Sunday, Sept. 22 against the Tottenham Steam, starting at 3 p.m.

WORD SCRAMBLE
(Continued from page 17) Leamington was two for seven on the power play while the Stars were zero for two. Polidori’s shutout followed the first of the year by fellow netminder Matthew Waite four days earlier against the Waterloo Siskins. “I have to give credit to our defense,” Polidori explained. “They’re making it easy for us. I’m really excited about this team — it has a lot to offer. We’ve got what it takes to be competitive again this year.” “I like the way we played defensively for the most part,” Crowder said of the home opening win over the Stars. “We’re trying to roll all four lines. All our guys can play and it wore them down in the third.” The following day, the Flyers paid a visit to St. Thomas for the second game in the home-andaway series. Leamington lost the game 7-6 in overtime after surrendering a four-goal lead with six-and-a-half minutes remaining in the third. Michaud scored twice for Leamington while singles came from Josh King, Nicholas Beneteau, Cameron Armstrong and Dylan Weston. O’Neil kept his point streak alive with two assists. The Flyers outshot the Stars 39-22. The Flyers’ next home game will be at 7:10 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 19 against the Komoka Kings
Talbot Trail senior men’s league enjoys beautiful day of golf By Bob McLean
The senior men’s league at Talbot Trail Golf Club had a beautiful day for golf on Tuesday, Sept. 10. In the 70 and under division, Tom Dunn shot a masterful 36 to lead the way. Other terrific results came from Phil Humphries 38, Fred Michano 40, Tim Stevenson and John Liddell 41s, Jamie Arquette and Herb Reid 42s, and Randy Nash 43. In the 70-79 division, Dutchy captured first place with his excellent 38. Other very praiseworthy results came from Pat Hill 41, Bill Ward 42, and Rick Epplett, Paul Brown and Al Matthews 43. The 80-84 grouping also enjoyed some outstanding results. Both Mike Wright and Joe Vrtel earned excellent 40s. Other very noteworthy results came from Carl Robinson 47, and Neil Adamson and Tom Hyatt nifty 50s. The super seniors always inspire the membership. Dave la Bonte, once again, led the way with a brilliant 46. Bob Freure scored an outstanding 48. Both Murray Cascadden and Jumbo Takaki enjoyed satisfying results. Dutchy’s scintillating shot on #9 ended up one foot from the cup to take the closest to the pin. Ross Mackintosh drained a dazzling 22-foot putt on #2 to win the long putt. Members thank Arkey and Gerry for doing an excellent job barbecuing the burgers and sausages. The league’s final scramble is on September 24.

Sharks wrap up preseason schedule By Bryan Jessop
With the year’s round of exhibition games behind them, the Wheatley Omstead Sharks are now focusing on the matches where points are won and lost. The Sharks’ preseason officially concluded Wednesday, Sept. 11 with a hard-fought 5-4 win over the Blenheim Blades, evening the Blue and White’s record at two wins and two losses. The most recent contest had more veterans mixed into the lineup with tryout considerations and signed rookies, all of whom contributed to the game’s outcome. “We made some young mistakes that they capitalized on, but the kids showed some guts to come back for the win,” explained Sharks’ head coach Josh Carnevale. “Hopefully, we can build on that for the start of the season.” The visiting Blades led three times, but Wheatley continually bounced back and mounted a successful third period to produce the victory. Tyler Davis snapped a rebound
Sharks veteran Dawson Iles carries the puck out of the Wheatley zone while Sam McKinlay of the Blades gives chase late in the first period of a Wednesday, Sept. 11 exhibition game at Wheatley Area Arena. The Sharks came out on top 5-4 to finish their pre-season record at an even two wins and two losses.

Christian Mocca put Blenheim ahead the second time early in the first, but former Lakeshore Canadien Lucas Poisson replied for another deadlock. Veteran Alixe Saliba put the hosts ahead 36 seconds later, but Moccia and Campbell brought the Blades back into a one-goal lead before the second-period buzzer sounded. The Sharks’ bench staff put newly-acquired goalie Kyle Metson in goal for the third, where he steered aside eight shots. Jordan Paquette and Jeremy Oriet provided Wheatley with game tying and winning tallies respectively. The Sharks outshot the visitors 30-26 while both sides were zero for four on the power play. Sinasac, Shannon Olsen and Oriet were “We made some all signed as rookies young mistakes that that evening to join they capitalized on, a mix of eight veterbut the kids showed ans who represented some guts to come either the Sharks or back for the win.” other Junior C clubs in 2018-’19. Metson, — Josh Carnevale who played for the AAA Sun Count Panthers last season, is a Windsor resident and the Sharks’ 16-year-old for the new season. Not certain if Saliba will remain on the roster for the regular season, the Sharks could be setting out for the 2019-’20 campaign with only one overager — Wheatley resident and defenseman Matt Taylor. “We’re going to be younger than we expected,” Carnevale explained. “It’ll give guys opportunities to move up or down on the roster all season and in the playoffs.” Until Drew Denomey is cleared by physicians to play following summer knee surgery, the Wheatley squad will be in search of two more forwards and two defensemen to complete the lineup. With only one or two overagers and four 1999-born players this year, the coaching staff is hoping to keep the new group largely intact for next season. However, the objectives for the upcoming season remain consistent with past years. “The goal for this team is always to finish in the top four and have home ice advantage in the first round,” Carnevale said. Wheatley’s regular season will begin on home ice Wednesday, Sept. 18 with a 7:30 p.m. opening faceoff against the Dresden Kings.

Leamington SC United (LSCU) has announced its new Grassroots Academy Program, slated to begin October 1. The program focuses on the development of soccer players eight to12 years of age from the Essex County area. “Leamington SC United Grassroots Academy was built in order to shift focus to developing the players’ individual skills and their technical abilities in order to instill confidence and knowledge of the game that will translate to a lifelong involvement with the sport and our club,” said Dan Santos, LSCU club president and founder. LSCU believes in providing a positive soccer experience to all players and that SC United players all deserve the opportunity to develop their abilities to their full potential. With this in mind, Leamington SC United developed its Grassroots Academy Program (SC-GAP). The SC-GAP has been created and will be instructed by LSCU head coaches Carlos Soares and Alex Gaspar. Both have amazing experience and education to bring to these lucky players. Check out their credentials on the LSCU website. The SC-GAP is now open for registration. Visit the website at www.leamingtonscunited.ca for more details and to register for the fall 2019, spring 2020 and summer 2020 programs.

1960 Monarch in same family since new Joe Romanowski lives in Windsor. On the afternoon of Friday, June 7, he drove to the third annual All-Ford Car Show at the historic Essex Railway Station in the town of Essex. He parked in front of the station in his 1960 Monarch Lucerne 2-door hardtop, a car his father had purchased in April of 1960 for $3,495 from Webster Motors, a well-known Ford and Monarch dealership many years ago in Windsor. Joe now owns the car, which has now been in the same family since new 59 years ago. It is still in excellent original condition and would look good in anyone’s driveway. Under the hood is a 383 cubic inch V8 engine producing 280 horsepower. The car was built at the Ford plant in Oakville, one of 767 of this particular model. It was rare Bill Sherk even when new and many times more rare today. The Monarch (a Mercury with Monarch trim) was introduced in Canada in 1946 to supply Ford dealers with a car in the medium-price field. Another dealer line was set up to sell Mercury and Lincoln, with the new Mercury 114 (based on Ford) to give those dealers a car to sell in the low-price field. This new arrangement gave Ford of Canada a total of 1,100 dealerships across the country, a 58% increase over the prewar years. In 1958, no Monarchs were built because the new Edsel was brought out that year. Edsel sales were very disappointing and the Monarch was brought back for 1959. The last Monarch was built in 1961. By that time, the Ford Galaxie models were moving into the medium-price field and it made no sense to have two competing makes in the same

He brought this car as well as his ’60 to the All-Ford car show and the two cars were parked side by side. All Monarchs from 1946 to 1961 are highly collectible today.
