BEEKEEPING BEGINS WITH LEARNING
Two dead following fiery crash on I-96
BY CHARITY MEIER cmeier@candgnews.com
The Novi Police Department is investigating a crash that killed two women early Tuesday morning, Sept. 23.
The Novi Police and Fire departments were dispatched to the scene of a two-vehicle crash on eastbound Interstate 96 near the Beck Road exit at approximately 2:08 a.m. Upon arrival, they found an Acura sedan and a Kia Soul engulfed in flames in the left lane.
“Preliminary investigation indicates the Acura was stopped in the left lane of eastbound I-96 due to a malfunction with the front driver-side tire,” Cmdr. Kristie Gruenwald, of the Novi Police Department, said in an email. “The Kia, also traveling eastbound, rear-ended the disabled Acura, resulting in a fire and fatal injuries to both drivers.”

Glenlore Trails ‘The Witching Hour’ leaves attendees spellbound
BY CHARITY MEIER cmeier@candgnews.com
COMMERCE TOWNSHIP —
“The Witching Hour” is close at hand, as Glenlore Trails, 3860 Newton Road, in Commerce Township, opened the attraction for the 2025 season on Sept. 25.
The annual Halloween immersive light show is a product of the pandemic, started in 2020 by Scott and Chanel Schoeneberger, managing partners of Bluewater Technologies, which operates the trails. The annual Halloween trail has a new theme each year that provides guests with a fun, interactive and nostalgic way of getting into the holiday spirit for the whole family.
Chanel Schoeneberger said that they start brainstorming ideas for the theme in February and start installing the infrastructure in July. The theme this year is “The Witching Hour,” a concept they have never done before. She said her team fell in love with the idea.
“This one was entirely different, “The Witching Hour,” and we all just immediately loved it,” Chanel Schoeneberger said. “Being in the woods, I feel like there’s got to be that, like, you know, enchanted but yet a little bit of spooky, but not frightening, and we had yet to do something with, like, witches and the witching hour. We’ve done fairies and the haunted forest. This was a new one for us, and we all loved it.”

Novi drama students learn new skills to take audiences aboard the Orient Express
BY CHARITY MEIER cmeier@candgnews.com
The Novi community will soon have the opportunity to travel aboard the Orient Express, as the Novi High School theater department will be presenting Agatha Christie’s classic, “Murder on the Orient Express,” Oct. 9-11.
Set in 1934, a cast of characters from various countries travel from Istanbul to various places in Europe via the Orient Express.
“It’s super cool. It has a very vintage vibe with being set in 1930s Europe and everything, and there’s a lot of plot twists, which are very interesting,” said lead actress and prop master Joanna Ambadipudi, 17.
The play will be performed in a black box, or a small room painted black, rather than the auditorium. According to Ambadipudi, this makes for a much more intimate setting for the production, which has a run time of approximately an hour and 45 minutes.
“It really allows the audience to kind of feel that they are a part of the show,” said student technical director Kai Chopra.
“Our cast is working really hard to give it that full train experience that you’re going to get throughout our entire show,” she said.

COMMUNITY REMEMBERS SERVICE MEMBERS WHO HAVE YET TO MAKE IT HOME
BY CHARITY MEIER cmeier@candgnews.com
A small crowd gathered at Oakland Hills Memorial Gardens on Sept. 19 in front of the memorial dedicated to the memory of those who were taken as prisoners of war and those who are considered missing in action to pay tribute on National POW/MIA Recognition Day.
“Never forget. Never let your children forget how fortunate we are to have a force of men and women willing to safeguard our freedom,” said Debbie Pineau McClain, president of the POW Committee of Michigan. “Your attendance here today is a testament to the American public, grateful for the freedoms and liberties supplied through the heroics of men like the 84 on this wall. May we as loyal countrymen never abandon their memory or allow their sacrifices to slip from our national conscious.”
According to McClain, 1,566 families of soldiers who went missing during Vietnam are still wait to find out what happened to their loved ones. She said 48 of those families are from Michigan.
Jean Jacquin, a POW committee member and Farmington Hills resident, was a featured speaker during the ceremony. Her brother, U.S. Air Force Lt. James Arthur McEwen, has been missing since Oct. 22, 1965, when she was just 16 years old. According to Jacquin, at the time of his disappearance, McEwen was a navigator on a night reconnaissance mission in Vietnam. Jacquin got choked up as she spoke of the hardships her family has endured since they got that fateful knock on their door informing them that her brother was missing and how difficult it is to not know what happened to a loved one. She said her brother was declared killed in action six

months after he went missing and that they had a memorial service for him, but they have no idea what truly happened to him.
“None of my friends knew what to say to me. I felt alone,” Jacquin said.
She said her brother’s name was placed on a street sign in Washington, Pennsylvania, where they grew up, by a group of veterans.
“They just wanted to honor a missing man they didn’t even know,” she said.
Jacquin said the local POW/MIA com-

Doug Pickel, a civilian craftsman and son of a World War II veteran, spoke of his involvement in Rolling Thunder Inc., an advocacy group for the POW/MIA community whose members ride motorcycles, and how he came to create plaques to honor families of POW/MIA service members.

Local car show goes to
BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com
Warren resident Paul “Pauly G” Gutkowski is not only a bona fide car buff, but he also has a soft spot for animals.
During the classic car cruise season, he organizes the weekly car shows from 5 to 8 p.m. every Wednesday at Sandbaggers Sports Bar and Grill in Center Line. Jerry and Fran Czapski built Sandbaggers, and son Dave Czapski is the current owner. Gutkowski, owner of a 1968 Mercury Cougar, also holds fundraisers at other car shows to raise money for the I Heart Dogs Rescue & Animal Haven in Warren. Gutkowski is a member of the Burnouts Detroit car group.
The group, along with the Center Line Festival Foundation, held a charity car show
during the Center Line Beer Fest at the city’s Memorial Park Sept. 13, which raised $1,832 for the animal shelter. Money was raised through registration fees, charity raffles and 50/50s. At the Sept. 17 Sandbaggers car show, Gutkowski presented a check to Cindy Yankley, events director for the I Heart Dogs Rescue & Animal Haven.
“That can pay a lot of medical bills for our dogs,” Yankley said. “We’re so grateful to Paul because he’s been doing this event for us at the Center Line car show. He has made a really big difference in the lives of a lot of dogs. We’re so grateful to him and to everyone else.”
In addition to the $1,832, the nonprofit animal shelter had a table at the beer fest car show, which brought in $600 in donations, and one dog was adopted out. I Heart Dogs Rescue & Animal Haven will hold a dog and cat adoption event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct.
4 at its shelter located at 22415 Groesbeck Highway in Warren. For more information, go to iheartdogs.org or email bark@iheartdogs. org.
Every week at the Sandbaggers car show, Gutkowski and his wife, Michelle Gutkowski, set up a canopy where they sell miniature toy cars and Gutkowski serves as the unofficial disc jockey, playing classic rock music for the crowd.
“I want to thank everyone for coming out again tonight. This lets people know about events in the city,” Gutkowski said. “I grew up with Dave and Sandbaggers.”
Gary White, of Warren, brought his 1958 Chevrolet Impala to the event. White, 73, has owned the white Impala for almost five years. His son knew he wanted an Impala and found one through an online marketplace site.
“I immediately got in touch with the guy.
I went the next morning and bought it,” White said. “I drove it home. It was a rough drive home. It needed a lot.”
To give it a smoother ride, White and his son changed the engine, transmission, altered the brakes and more.
“It’s got air conditioning, power steering and power brakes. People see it and think it’s the ‘American Graffiti’ car. I had a blue one when I was about 19. I had it for about two years. All the old cars are fantastic. They’re all fun,” White said. “That’s back when you bought a car for $200. Cars were cheap back then — not anymore.”
Back in the day, White and his buddies cruised Eight Mile Road, stopping at the Big Boy in Hazel Park. Other times they’d hit Woodward Avenue and would meet up at another of their favorite Big Boy restaurants.

Witching
from page 1A
ence begins as guests walk under a large digital sign with an image of a clock and the haunting theme on it. They then begin the 1-mile walk along an enchanted forest trail filled with eerie delights, such as witches, skeletons, pumpkins, coffins and more.
Guests are treated not just to the spooky and fun decor, much of which is created just for the trails, but they can also partake in several interactive digital games along the way, enjoy a walk through a bubble tunnel, and even view their witchy side through a magic mirror. The mirror takes their picture and reveals their “true” self as a witch, warlock or sorcerer.
For added fun, guests can purchase magic wands, which allow them to create their own adventure as they go along the trail. The wands enable the user to choose the color, animal and sound that their spells will evoke when they cast them at various points marked with a “G” as they pass through the Witching Hour.
“I loved that the exhibits were interactive. Like, you could wave your wand on something, you could pick a color, you could pick an animal,” said Jen Hazel, of Novi. “If I picked a wolf, it would howl. If I picked a spider, it would (make a noise resembling the spider
walking on a surface). The wand did that. That was cool. Super different.”
Dave Brown has brought his family from Sterling Heights to Glenlore Trails for the last five years, and for the last couple of years, they have come in costumes.
“I’m here for the ambience, but they (his children) like the interactive stuff, I think,” he said.
“I just like the ambience with all the lights everywhere,” agreed Brown’s wife, Tammy. “The games are always fun for the boys. They like competing.”
“I like how I get to create my own (things by customizing the wand),” said Alex Brown, 9.
“I like the things you can take pictures with,” said Andy Brown, 6.
Schoeneberger said it “warms my heart” to hear of families such as the Browns who have made Glenlore a holiday family tradition, and that is what makes it all worthwhile.
“Honestly, what brings us back is just seeing this. Seeing the smile on people’s faces. It has become so many people’s family traditions. People look forward to it and that excites us and keeps us going for sure,” Schoeneberger said.
Heather Harness, of Bay City, said she heard of the trails via Facebook and thought it would be something fun to do with her son, Ethan, who has autism.

“He is on the spectrum. I think it was very sensory-friendly. It was really cool,” said Harness. “It was, like, sensory inclusive and worth the price point, very interactive.”
Harness said it is sensory-friendly because there are no “jump scares” and everything is approachable by the child, and that they can choose whether or not to engage in the experience, as nothing is pushed on them.
Ethan Harness, 10, said the trails were “fun” and his favorite part was the skeletons.
Schoeneberger said that she was glad to hear people consider it sensory-friendly and that they are considering doing a special sensory-friendly night in the future.

The Acura was driven by Neena Wang, 30, of California, and the Kia was driven by Sylvette Campbell, 57, of Westland. No passengers were involved in the crash.
According to Gruenwald, identification of the victims was confirmed based on initial findings. However, she said that official autopsy and toxicology reports are pending and are expected to take more than 12 weeks to complete. Gruenwald said the results will determine the official cause and manner of death for both victims.
Both Wang and Campbell were declared dead at the scene.
Police believe that Wang exited her vehicle to address a “tire malfunction” and then returned to her vehicle, as she was in the driver’s seat of the Acura at the time of the crash, according to Gruenwald. She said the tire appeared to malfunction due to wear and tear.

“We don’t know why the driver didn’t pull over to the shoulder of the road, but we suspect it was because she was not able to because of her tire issue,” Gruenwald said. If a vehicle stalls on the freeway, the driver should pull onto the shoulder of the road if possible, activate the vehicle’s hazard lights, and call for service or assistance, Gruenwald said. If a driver cannot pull over to the shoulder, the driver should call 911 for assistance.

Responsible beEkeEping begins with learning
BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com
Despite how it may look in videos and pictures, beekeeping is no simple task.
What appears at first to be pulling racks out of boxes while wearing bulky clothes belies a complex field of animal husbandry where climates are watched, pesticides are precautioned and the wrong move may see a whole hive die off.
“There’s a fad that’s been going on (called) ‘garden hives,’” said Randy List, an instructor of classes with the Southeastern Michigan Beekeepers Association. “They put the box with hive stands in their garden and put some bees in there, and they do nothing to them and bees die and next
year they put more in there. That’s not what proper beekeeping is. (Beekeeping is) husbandry; you have to monitor what’s going on and deal with what’s going on.
The weather and climate is a big deal … so you have to be aware of what to expect, understand what you’re seeing and deal with it.”
For those who find themselves interested in beekeeping and want to learn how to get into it, List recommends first reaching out to local beekeeping clubs and speaking with active keepers. If what they have to say sounds good, interested parties are encouraged to take a course like SEMBA’s basic beekeeping classes. Running from February to October with monthly classes at Michigan State

beehive.
Beekeeping
University’s Tollgate Farm and Education Center in Novi and the Bowers School Farm in Bloomfield Hills, the SEMBA basic beekeeping course teaches students how to get into responsible beekeeping.
“It starts out as bookwork and classroom work … and then the students get bees,” List said. “The students all have bees and they learn from each other’s bees, because they’ll have a hive right next to each other and they’ll be doing something totally different. The whole point of that is I look at your hive, you look at my hive and everybody else’s hive as a group and we learn what’s going on. (Around fall) they take the hives back to wherever they’re going to take
care of them and then (October) is a wrapup meeting.”
Students work with beekeeper instructors, like List or fellow instructor Luke Altomore, to learn information important for the first year of maintaining a honeybee hive. Subjects taught include the biology of the honeybee, how bees operate alongside other pollinators, how to maintain hives, how to maintain the health of honeybees, learning about different types of pests, mites and other threats, the tools of beekeeping and more.
It costs around $500 to take the class, including the textbook and a box hive. Taking the SEMBA course gives students a preliminary set of information to begin beekeeping while also building relationships with emerging and experienced beekeepers in the area.
“My team’s support to the students
doesn’t end in October,” List said. “They’ve got our numbers and our emails and that continues on. In fact, I still get calls from people from several years back. We also have a Facebook page for alumni, and some people participate in it and others don’t, just asking questions and what’s what. When it comes to extracting the honey, that’s another expense so a lot of people will get together and chip in instead of paying $300 for just (their own) equipment and sharing it. You’re gaining friends and you’re gaining contacts.”
On top of the $500 class and possibly some share of the burden for extraction equipment, beekeeping is a fairly significant investment up front. Altomore says the cost can be $1,000 or more when including protective equipment, hives and honeybees, but there’s also plenty of money to be made once the hives start producing honey.
“The interesting thing I found out was, after a couple years of beekeeping, I was making enough money selling my honey to pay for all of my equipment — and had some left over, too,” Altomore said. “There’s that to keep in mind, that if you do keep up with the hobby, you’ll have enough honey sales to pay for everything that you need to start with.”
Altomore says honey runs for about $15 per pound and $1 per ounce with bottling and labels being a minimal monetary expense.
Along with the honey and whatever joys and profits come from that, beekeeping is more than just the practice of raising bees and managing their hives. Both List and Altomore waxed poetic about the scent of a hive, as well as the relaxing feeling of simply being with and watching the bees.

“The lessons taught were the greater thing. See, because as a civilian, I have no idea what our servicemen and women went through. My father was silent, though; his service in WWII he never spoke. Whatever Dad experienced, he took it to his grave with him. So, I had to find that piece to my heart. Knowing that my whole life has been being wrong in everything I do, and there’s a lot of law enforcement that can tell you about my wrongs, but you see, God puts us all on this earth for a reason, and with purpose, you find your journey. No matter what it is, God gave us all a talent for a reason. I didn’t know it, but God gave me a talent of working with wood.”
Pickel has 27 pieces memorializing people at museums across the country.
“I have honored some of the most painful stories. Some of them have put me in therapy for a little time,” he said. “I couldn’t fathom how losing somebody and not knowing where they were would be like.”
He said that he was able to get that education through people he encountered through the organization.

for us to honor our POWs and MIAs who haven’t come home yet. We as a society must fulfill that obligation,” Pickel said.
He recalled asking people years ago if they knew the significance of the third Friday in September, but nobody knew. He said his father had once told him that you can’t fault someone for not knowing something they weren’t told about, and how he stressed the importance of education. He said he is proud to work with Rolling Thunder to educate people on POWs and MIAs. Pickel stressed how important it is for the families to just know that people care.
“Whether you served or whether you’re civilians, God gave us talents. Use those talents to become a big random act of kindness for families who, in my eyes, have been forgotten,” Pickel said. “We as a country owe it to our POW/MIA families across this country to take this initiative and really get everybody brought home. It’s the least we can do.”
The ceremony concluded with the presentation and laying of wreaths, a benediction, the reciting of the names of all Michigan POW/MIAs, followed by a 21-gun salute and the playing of taps.

Beekeeping
“When you find apiaries, which is a bee yard, you will usually find a folding chair or a stool or a bench for people to go out and sit,” List said. “We work with the city of Livonia parks and rec; we have an apiary there and whenever we’re there, there’s always somebody walking by and waiting to come in and sit and watch and listen.
“When we have lectures and observation hives, with the bees behind glass, it’s fun watching the kids but it’s also fun watching the adults watching the bees, getting mesmerized just by looking at it. It is mesmerizing if you let it happen to you,” List added.
While some may try to get into bee-
keeping as a way of “saving the bees,” SEMBA’s website discourages this and recommend those interested in that to “plant and encourage pollinator friendly farms and gardens, to join the movement to eradicate lethal pesticides, or to participate in citizen science projects that support endangered pollinators.” But for those with a passion and drive for the work, science and art of bee husbandry, Altomore has a dire warning for anyone following the road to beekeeping.
“Beekeeping is addictive,” Altomore said. “You think you’re going to have one or two hives, and before you know it your bees are multiplying, you’re splitting your hives, and very quickly you can have up to 10 or 12 hives.”

Student co-director Lilly Balino, 16, said that although they stick with the classic Agatha Christie plot, she thinks many high school students are not familiar with the story and will be surprised by the ending.
“There’s so much hidden humor in all the layers of the story. It just makes it so enjoyable. It makes the dramatic parts stand out more, too,” Balino said.
The show provided students with an opportunity to learn how to perform characters with various accents. Ambadipudi said that the 12 cast members had to learn how to speak with either a French, Hungarian, Russian, Swedish or Scottish accent. To do so, the students were given a two-hour session with graduate theater students from Michigan State University, who were familiar with performing characters with accents.
She said the biggest challenge is being able to convey the accent well while making sure the audience can still understand what they are saying.
For additional help with her French accent, she said she watched French films to get into the headspace of what the accent and phrasing sounds like and practiced it frequently with her castmates.
Chopra, 16, said that she found her biggest challenge with the play has been coordinating everything between costumes, lights and the set in order to tie in small clues throughout the play.
“It’s kind of just little Easter eggs of things that they will start to realize when everything is revealed at the end,” Chopra said. “It doesn’t really help them solve the mystery, but it’s cool at the end of the show for them to realize at the end of the show, ‘Oh, that’s why there’s this on the dress’ or something like that.”
Ambadipudi said the students can learn a lot of skills through theater.
“I think theater teaches you a lot, both through the performance as well as the tech side. Over the past couple of years, I have learned immense, like, problem-solving skills as well as time management skills, taking on sort of different roles through the many shows that I have done. As far as the performance side, I think it makes you a better speaker. You are able to articulate your thoughts well,” Ambadipudi said.
Balino stressed that the play is open for anyone in the community to attend, regardless of their age, affiliation with the school, or lack thereof.
“All of our shows are open to everyone,” Balino said.
The show will be performed at 7 p.m.
each day. Tickets cost $12 and are available online or at the door. To get to the theater, enter the high school through the doors off
