Fifth Wheel sold, to close
A “real” first day of school
Staff told last week gasbar, restaurant to close by month’s end, truck wash to stay open By Mike Williscraft NewsNow A piece of Grimsby history has been sold, with part of the facility to close Sept. 21. Fifth Wheel Truck Stop restaurant will close, along with the gas bar. At this point, plans call for the Blue Beacon Truck Wash to remain open. “It will be the end of an era,” said Fifth Wheel general manager John Dunstall. “There will be a lot of people who will miss this place.” About 25 people will find themselves out of work when the doors close. “In our heyday, we had 100 or more employees – back in the 80s and 90s,” said Dunstall. The site was the location of the storied Hunt Club, which was sold to Fifth Wheel in 1988. Staff say they were told new owner Fred Losani of Losani Homes plans to develop the area with residential. “I haven’t heard anything official regarding sale/closure of 5th Wheel but it has been rumoured for years,” said Mayor Bob Bentley.

Neighbours, members elated at Kingdom Hall’s opening The members of the shiny new Jehovah’s Witnesses Kingdom Hall are happy and neighbours are definitely happy with the new Grimsby facility officially opening its doors last Saturday. A steady stream of
visitors toured the site at Bartlett and Lake Streets. “It was all done with volunteer labour and donated materials,” said congregation elder Kevin Downes, noting work started Sept. 8, 2014 and
the first meeting was held in December. “It was a 13-week build.” The Grimsby facility will be home to three congregations, Grimsby, Beamsville and Smithville – about 360 to-
tal members, said Downes. Previously, the congregation had its home on Mountain Street Grimsby for the last 60 years, so a move to a new neighbourhood is a big deal.
“We have talked to all the neighbours. They are very happy we are here. They hated the idea of high density townhouses being built next door, so they are very pleased to have us here,” said
Downes. And why not? The grounds are large and beautifully landscaped. “All the landscaping was started on a Tuesday and done by the following Friday. See HALL, Page 2

base who just help with building,” said Downes, adding the public is welcome to visit see the facility. He noted that a good way for some-
one who would like more general information about what Jehovah’s Witnesses offer would be to check the organizations’s jw.org
“They can see right there the kind of work we do,” said Downes. There is information for kids, young couples, you name it.”
VINELAND NURSERIES Is your mortgage coming up for renewal this Fall? Before you sign for another 5-year fixed-rate term with your current mortgage provider, give some thought to your future plan with respect to your finances and your home, especially if you are thinking of moving. The 5-year fixed-rate term is the most popular term, however, there are many more options! • You may want to look at renewing for a shorter term, such as a 2-year fixed-term. • How about borrowing additional funds to update or renovate your home, thus increasing its appeal and value to prospective buyers? • Can you afford to increase your mortgage payment now, so that when you do sell your home, you will have a larger downpayment for the new home purchase? Take the time to research your renewal options, and don’t make the mistake of going with just the best rate, unless you fully understand the terms and conditions of that contract. I offer you expert mortgage advice and unique mortgage solutions from over 20 financial institutions, including the large banks and credit unions. Talk to us. You’ll be impressed!

Calls and email to Fifth Wheel president Jim Warren were not returned prior to press time. Various sales prices were rumoured but none could be confirmed. Asked if town council may consider waiving building height restrictions on this building project or any other proposed, Bentley said the Town’s zoning bylaws will dictate plans, adding increased height and increased potential tax dollars are not a determining factor in planning complete communities. “The Official Plan and zoning bylaws are intended to guide and control planning decisions based on good planning principles,” said Bentley.

As part of its 40th anniversary celebrations, Grimsby Public Art Gallery is honouring the facility’s history by paying tribute to a few of the over 500 artists who have shown at GPAG during the past 40 years. “We are particularly interested in revisiting the careers of artists with deep roots in the community. Tim Storey is one of those artists and we are pleased to feature his work at GPAG in the retrospective, A Talent to Amuse,” said gallery curator Rhona Wenger. Born in England, Storey spent his childhood and youth in Grimsby. After attending Sheridan College in the early 1970’s, he and his partner established a studio near Jordan. Storey’s first major exhibition was in the Grimsby Public Art Gallery around 1980. Snap, our large ceramic dragon on permanent display just outside the gallery’s main doors, was purchased for the collection at this time. He eventually moved on to the Madawaska area and continued his very successful career. He is particularly well known for his animal and fantasy themed tea-pots, which are featured in numerous significant collections. Storey’s work was very popular in our region during the late 1970’s and 1980’s; a number of regional collectors who acquired pieces at that time have generously lent them to GPAG for this exhibition. Each piece is an individual character and every collector seems to have a delightful story about how each piece, like a beloved pet, became an integral part of their family. While still a student at Sheridan, Storey discovered the power of incorporating humour into his art, and says that “even as a student…I did not seem to have the need, the

Twenty Valley Public School has “real” first day of new era Teachers and even some students were
excited about their first day back to school at Twenty Valley Public School on Tuesday. Principal Lorne Gretsinger said all went well as everyone settled into their new environment. “We love our new building, but it is our awesome students and staff which make it come to life and fulfill its potential,” said Gretsinger. “We have a motto
here this year that is “Live, Learn, LEAD at Twenty Valley” boosting our community spirit. “The teachers love our new technology and are working hard putting it to instructional use in the classroom. Students are enjoying the new learning spaces, new lockers for every student Grade 1-8 and we have spacious new kindergarten rooms.”
Summer Savings
Adding the day went “very smoothly”, Gretsinger noted the school will be immediately busy with its support of the community as a whole. “We are partnering with Community Care West Niagara and the Lions Food Drive on Saturday, Sept. 19,” said Gretsinger. “We are going to be the main dropoff in Vineland for the food drive. Anyone from the community is welcome to come and tour the school when they drop off their food donations with us 8 am-2 pm that day.”

Lone Daniel J. Morrell survivor dies at 75 By Skip Gillham For NewsNow My friend Dennis Hale died last week. He passed away in Ashtabula, Ohio, on Sept. 2. Dennis was the sole survivor of the sinking of the bulk carrier Daniel J. Morrell on Lake Huron 49-years ago this November. His vessel broke in two in a vicious November gale. After drifting on a life raft for 36-hours, he was the only member of the crew still alive when help arrived. Both parts of this ship have been located and they rest upright on the bottom of Lake Huron almost 10 kms apart.

Only Dennis Hale survived. Eventually, Den-
Shipwreck nis was able to talk about his ordeal and the tragic loss of his 28 shipmates. He wrote a book about his experience, made himself available for interviews and was willing to address marine gatherings all around North America.
He found it therapeutic. On one occasion, when I was speaking to a group in Ashtabula. He was kind enough to come and it was a joy to meet him. The Daniel J. Morrell was part of the Bethlehem Transportation Co. fleet. It had been built in 1906 and lost on Nov. 29, 1966. Con C ons side idering Braces?

“They just continue to South Grimsby Road 10, again following the signs, and the entrance is off that road. There is lots of space.” Parking is something many community events has major problems with, so that is why special attention has been paid to structuring suitable parking for the fairgrounds. “This will ensure long-term success of the whole thing,” said Witteveen. “It is important people are comfortable knowing there is lots of space and it is great to have it right on site. We have put a lot of thought into it.”

IN THE
Dear Editor, This Letter to the Editor is also to the attention of Mr. J. Stevens, president of the Grimsby Benevolent Fund. A photo can say so much. The front page of last week’s edition of NewsNow underlined everything we have been saying these past six months about the controversial closure of the GBF stairway in our neighbourhood. What did that photo say? Our entire neighbourhood supports us in our appeal to re-open the stairway. We are not going away!! We were joined in the photo by some who used this route to walk to downtown Grimsby as long ago as the 1950s. Some still did until the stairway was closed six months ago. We were joined by some of the tradespeople who have offered their skills to keep this stairway open for this neighbourhood. We have never suggested that the resources of the GBF that are earmarked for the needy be re-directed to maintain the stairs.

Finishing touch
Grimsby artist Jan Yates puts some finishing touches on her installation at Grimsby Public Art Gallery. Her work is part of GPAG’s 40th anniversary celebrations.
It’s about time Well, this is it. After years of turmoil, plans, meetings and more meetings, the wraps are finally going to come off the West Niagara Fair on the new fairgrounds. It looks like good weather is in the offing (but who really knows) so it will be full speed ahead for all involved and not a year too soon. With any major community event, there are countless hours of behind-the-scenes work which make it all happen. The public never sees it and those who volunteer are rarely heard from in terms of seeking credit. It simply is not in their giving nature. So let us give credit now. Thanks for all those involved for getting the thing – site, event and facility - in place for us all to enjoy!! Congratulations!
Sale of Fifth Wheel just evolution It really should not come as a shock to anyone that Fifth Wheel Truck Stop has been sold and is expected to be developed as residential. An expansive piece of lakefront real estate in a stretch that is red hot and knee deep in all kinds of high-density residential development right now? It was more a matter of when as opposed to if. As Mayor Bob Bentley noted, rumours have been around years about the site being sold. It is the law of supply and demand. The site would eventually be part of the supply for residential growth –that was ensured by the implementation of Greenbelt legislation. Grimsby has X amount of land available in its residential inventory. Yes, there will be a release of some (it certainly is anticipated if not expected) land in the west end, west of Hunter Road, but that area too will be exhausted soon. The few parcels of land left will skyrocket in value and maximum densities will be the only way for developers to not just get their money back, but make a buck. At some point, the demand and price point someone is willing to pay matches up with the supply and, poof, we have a sale. It would seem such is the case here. Fifth Wheel has been part of the community for nearly 20 years and the Warren family, which operates the facility, as well as its local managers have been excellent community partners over the years. This is big business and big money and sometimes
MIKE WILLISCRAFT those interests do not match up with smalltown interests. Back in the mid-90s when I came to town, my good friends were hanging out in the basement of the Fifth Wheel...more precisely, management allowed them to use part of the lower level as their clubhouse for many years. It was there where I attended some of their Tuesday night meetings and finalized some of the plans for the very first Greater Grimsby Open, which has evolved into the highly successful Kinsmen Mini-Putt. Those kinds of contributions, the allowance of space and resources, is part of what makes communities work and, in the instance of Fifth Wheel, is something that will be missed. I am quite sure the Losani group will do a fine job and build and excellent residential complex. They have an excellent reputation. But as these smaller entities disappear from our landscape the burden of supporting on the ongoing infrastructure of our community falls on our local small businesses. Niagara West has some excellent corporate part-
ners. They see a problem or an issue and they will move mountains, almost literally, to make things better. The more removed ownership is, the less connected they are to the town and that is where donations and contributions come from. I hear from business operators all the time how much they are peppered with requests for a little donation here, or a gift certificate there. I kind of chuckle because virtually everyone these people see some and see me just before or just after so I can give them something free to tell people for what they are raising money. And nobody really minds, they wish they could support everyone, too. The demise of Fifth Wheel just makes the pie cut that little bit thinner. It’s progress I suppose, but it is the same progress the paved Vanderburgh’s orchard, made rows of townhomes of Valk Greenhouses and stuff I-don’t-know-howmany-units on that little lot at the corner of Kerman and Livingston. You have to see that to believe it. There used to be about, what, a dozen apple trees on that lot, now there are 10 units? 12? Somebody will buy them or they would not be built. It is that simple. That is what will happen at Fifth Wheel’s long-time home. It will get developed, just like Place Polonaise and the surrounding lots. And if you talk to any of the developers out there, those properties are hotter than firecrackers. Our new world order, I supposed.

NRP happy with compliance levels during blitz Niagara Regional Police noted a “high level of road safety compliance” during All Hands on Deck, a safety blitz program conducted Tuesday, Sept. 8. The operation tookplace throughout the entire Niagara Region, between the hours of 8 a.m.-4:15 p.m. and coincided with the return to school for most of the Region’s school children after the summer vacation and targets school zones.
Every available onduty police officer was assigned to traffic enforcement duties in the vicinity of schools in each of Niagaras 12 municipalities. In total, 92 officers, from the chief of police to detectives were reassigned from their normal duties today to participate in this operation. Officers were able to attend at 76 schools, from Kindergarten to high school. During the All Hands on Deck, officers is-
sued 66 Provincial Offence Notices for speeding and seven for distracted driving. Ten drivers were issued a Provincial Offence Notice for seatbelt/child safety restraint violations and 13 more for various rules of the road violations. There were no arrests made this day by any of the officers on site.
Warnings for various traffic matters were given out to 66 drivers as well. In feedback from officers participating in this years campaign, many report that there appeared to be a high level of road safety compliance this year with few drivers committing traffic offences in their respective areas.
