Remembrance Day in Kingsville KINGSVILLE – A little snow didn’t stop hundreds from attending this year’s Remembrance Day Service at the Lt. Col. F.K. Jasperson, Branch 188 Royal Canadian Legion in Kingsville on Monday morning, November 11. Tribute was paid to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice, those who returned from war and those who continue to service their country in the name of freedom.

Erosion, flooding strike provincial park

WHEATLEY – Rising water levels and shoreline erosion are continuing to leave a negative impact just beyond Wheatley’s boundaries.

Although Wheatley Provincial Park closed its doors to public motor vehicle traffic as per usual for the season in mid October, the facility was also forced to make unscheduled closures for some of its amenities and features. The local Ontario Parks site’s website posted a message on its website stating “due to high lake level and ongoing erosion, there is no beach and no swimming area. Access to the day use area is restricted to foot or bicycle.”

Last week, Chatham-Kent Ward 1 councillor Melissa Harrigan posted photos acquired from a local resident of crumbling shoreline roadways at the park — the situation triggering the restriction of specific areas to motor vehicle use. While she noted that the impact of high water levels at Wheatley Provincial is a matter that cannot be directly addressed by the municipality, Harrigan described the situation as proof that shoreline erosion is an issue that must be addressed beyond the park’s boundaries.

Erosion, flooding strike provincial park

(Continued from Front) “I wanted to show how damaging the erosion can be and for people to see that it’s a very real problem,” she explained. “The shoreline in that area has eroded in a very short period of time, along with Highway 3. Businesses are suffering, residents and school bus routes have been affected and we want to be sure that emergency services can get where they need to go as quickly and safely as possible.”

Harrigan explained that she and fellow Ward 1 councillor Mark Authier have been focusing intently on bringing the Highway 3/Talbot Trail situation to the attention of council since a section spanning from Coatsworth Road to Stevenson Road — east of Wheatley — was closed in July of this year. She noted that a shoreline study currently taking place is scheduled to be released in March of 2020. In the meantime, public meetings are being scheduled for input on the

issue, including two sessions slotted for Tuesday, Nov. 26 at the Chatham-Kent Municipal Airport (8528 Fourteenth Line, RR2 Merlin) from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. The Chatham-Kent Lake Erie Shoreline Study Team, hosting the meetings, asks interested residents to call 519-360-1998 to book a specific session by Friday, Nov. 22.

“We want to understand very clearly what our options are,” Harrigan said. “They’re all expensive. Right now, we want to be sure that the detour routes people take are safe.”

The local C-K council member stressed that the problems facing Wheatley Provincial Park and motorists using Talbot Trail east of Wheatley stem from the same environmental changes.

“With the changing climate, we’re seeing stronger storms and higher water levels that impact the shoreline itself,” she noted.

Local rendition of play makes “Noise” at Bank Theatre

By Bryan Jessop

One of the most amusing and challenging performances at The Bank Theater — before or since renovations — has been well received by its audiences.

Written by British playwright Michael Frayn, Noises Off as presented at the newly rebuilt Bank Theatre is being directed by Renata Solski. The cast of nine, a gathering of four women and five men hailing from Windsor, Amherstburg and Leamington, launched the classic spoof at The Bank Theatre and Meeting Place Wednesday, Nov. 6. Additional performances took place November 7, 8 and 9 with future opportunities for adult audiences to take in the fast-paced comedy November 14, 15 and 16 starting at 7:30 p.m. and November 17 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $30 each online at www.bank“It’s just a theatre.com or at the box office 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. gorgeous Thursday to Sunday.

It is being presented in three acts, with 15-minute intermissions scheduled to allow — Renata stagehands to rotate the set from the main backdrop Solski to behind scenes and then back again.

The cast of Noises Off as arranged by Samuel French, Inc./Concord Theatricals includes Marnie Gare as Mrs. Clackett/Dotty, Michael Hale as Lloyd, Clinton Hammond as Roger/Garry, Emma Amlin as Vicki/Brooke, Corey Robertson as Philip Bent/Frederick/Sheikh, Cindy Pastorius as Flavia Brent/Belinda, John Solski as the burglar/Selsdon, Perla Alejandra Layman as Poppy and Noah Simpson as Tim. “They just love it — they think they’re in heaven,” Solski said of the cast’s feedback on the recently completed Bank Theatre facility at 10 Erie St. South. “It’s just a gorgeous atmosphere and the stage is amazing.”

Solski described Noises Off as one of the longest and funniest plays being performed at theatres across the world.

“There are actors who do it three or four times to reach perfection,” she said of the farcical play within a play. “It’s very challenging.”

The local cast of Noises Off received scripts in late August and began rehearsing the play shortly afterwards.

“The Bank Theatre is truly setting the bar high with top-level entertainment and theatrical productions,” stated Bank Theatre President Ursula Tiessen. “Having Renata Solski bring this production to fruition is the icing on the cake. She is a gem that has brought two amazing past productions ‘Lend Me A Tenor’ and ‘Love, Sex, and the IRS.’ Get ready to laugh and enjoy theatre at its best!”

Memories of...

Kingsville, Leamington and Wheatley

Photo courtesy of the Kingsville Archives

Yes, we forget Well, another Remembrance Day has come and gone.

For the most part, North Americans have moved on to setting up Christmas decorations, looking for deals for holiday gifts and south of the 49th, gearing up for a massive family Thanksgiving dinner. It’s downright commonplace for Canadians and Americans alike to forget about Remembrance Day/Veterans’ Day once November 12 rolls around. We’ve got jobs to do, families to take care of, hockey and football games to play and/or watch.

I know it would never likely catch any traction, but I’d be more than happy to see Remembrance Day become Remembrance Week. At the very least, we could recognize a second Remembrance Day to recognize the ending of WWII, although there’s still Bryan Jessop some debate as to exactly when that six-year conflict ended. August 14-15 and September 2 are the contested focal points — the dates it was announced that Japan would surrender versus the actual date that such documentation was signed.

It sounds farfetched to some, no doubt. Still, the nausea of major TV network Christmas commercials never ceases until well into January. Why should Remembrance Day be more than a single annual occasion, you may ask? Simple — we’re not getting the message.

As far as I can recollect, there hasn’t been an early November that’s gone by where stories don’t crop up about some degenerate lowlife stealing a poppy donation box. Those are people who aren’t getting the message. Earlier last week, 160 Canadian flags placed on the gravesites of military veterans in Windsor were stolen… ALL of them. A social media post from an Essex County resident rambled at great length about how unimportant and insignificant Remembrance Day is because, for one, “they’re all dead anyway” (or words to that effect) and that military veterans didn’t do anything that affects us nowadays. It never ceases to amaze me how proud some people are of their own ignorance.

Perhaps most importantly, honouring our military veterans is something that should be done more than one day per year because for many, it’s a 365-day-per-year job. It’s not just about history that includes WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.

Many peacekeeping missions, which have included Canadian contributions for the past several decades, are anything but peaceful. Our nation’s global contribution toward the protection of innocent lives didn’t end with any of the aforementioned dates in 1945. Over the past 60-plus years, close to 130,000 Canadians have served in peace-inspired missions in more than 35 countries all over the Earth. An estimated 130 of them have died, most as representatives of UN efforts. Countless others have endured physical, mental and emotional suffering that the rest of us will never comprehend.

In an era where so many go out of their way to find something to be offended by, it’s been said that Remembrance Day glorifies military violence. A candidate for a seat at Queen’s Park during last year’s provincial election demonstrated blatant disrespect for the poppy. Remembrance Day and the poppy have NEVER glorified warfare. Why is it so inconceivable to so many people that the rest of us are simply trying to honour the hundreds of thousands who’ve risked and lost their lives to protect the rights of millions (even billions) of others?

The fact that only 66 per cent of Canadian adults cast a vote in last month’s federal election is all the proof I need that at least one third of us aren’t getting Remembrance Day’s message. Sadly, that 66 per cent is the second best federal voter turnout of the millennium.

Millions — including our own parents and grandparents — have died for our right to vote.

If there were a non-military strategy to convince certain government leaders that killing and oppressing scores of innocent people is a price too high to achieve their own selfish objectives, I’d be among the first to give it the thumbs up. Sadly, some nations are led by selfabsorbed maniacs who can’t tolerate religious, social or economic beliefs that are anything but mirror images of their own. These are the people who refuse to take their seat at the table to engage in peace talks; hence the need for military intervention.

We’ll probably never officially have a date prior to or following November 11 to honour those who’ve paid or risked paying the supreme sacrifice. The very least we can do is offer them, past and present, our respect through the other 364 days of the year.

JESSOP’S JOURNAL

Constructed with the affluent in mind in 1889, the Kingsville Train Station is a sophisticated example of the Richardsonian Romanesque Style popular at the time. The architects were able to create a building that had a rugged, massive and monumental appearance by using colourful local fieldstone randomly laid. The Lake Erie, Essex and Detroit River Railway started operating in 1889 with three stations in Gosfield Township – the Arner Station, the Kingsville Station, and the Ruthven Railway Station, and ended with more than 300 miles of track. In 1903, the Pere Marquette Railroad Company purchased the L.E.E. & D.R.R., and in 1947 the line was purchased by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. The train station is now regarded as a local landmark and one of Kingsville’s most important heritage buildings.

This building has been beautifully restored because of the hard work of many dedicated conservationists, and remains a vital part of our community.

A Look at Leamington’s Past courtesy of C. Scott Holland November 1980: Leamington, Kingsville and Wheatley fire departments battled a blaze that destroyed the eight businesses that constituted the Wigle Block on Mill Street East in Leamington. The fire started in the Eventide Candle Shop and other businesses lost in the blaze were Head First Barber Shop, Little Bit Crafts, Szusz Realty, Gillis Photography, Windsor Star office, Gil Baker Denturist and Window Fashions Gift Ware. The building was razed and has been a parking lot ever since.

Christmas parades

By Bryan Jessop

With the holiday season just around the corner, Old Saint Nick is about to embark upon a busy schedule in the Kingsville, Leamington, Wheatley corridor. From mid November to early December, all three Lake Erie shoreline communities will host public Christmas parades.

Kingsville - Nov. 16, 6 p.m.

Kingsville’s Santa Claus Parade will be the first of the three, taking place Saturday, Nov. 16 with a 6 p.m. start.

The event is being presented through a partnership between the Town of Kingsville, Ernie’s TV and Appliance and Harold Remark/Royal LePage Binder Real Estate. Using the traditional route, entries will gather at Migration Hall near Kingsville District High School and head west along Main Street West. The procession will turn south onto Division Street until reaching its destination near the Park Street intersection. From its own float, The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul will be accepting donations of canned goods, gently used clothing and cash.

The parade will be preceeded by Eat Drink and Dine Kingsville’s Dinner With Santa ($8 per adult, $4 per child 3 to 11 years old, free to children under three) from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. After the parade reaches its destination, Santa and Mrs. Claus will flip the switch to officially kick off this year’s Fantasy of Lights Festival, running November 16 to January 8 throughout Lakeside Park. From there, spectators will be able to enjoy fireworks presented in part by WFCU as well as hot chocolate and a BBQ from the Scouts. The rain date for the free event will be Sunday, Nov. 17.

Leamington - Nov. 30, 6 p.m.

On Saturday, Nov. 30, the Clauses will make their yearly stop in Leamington, also with a 6 p.m. start. The route will take participating groups from Georgia Avenue to Erie Street, where entries will head north towards their Leamington Fairgrounds destination at the north end of town.

This year, the Leamington Santa Claus Parade will coincide with the final 2019 edition of the monthly Mill Street Night Market. Normally held the first Friday of every month, the November edition of the market will take place from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. along Mill Street West, featuring several craft and food vendors as well as live musical performers.

The parade will be preceded by its final fundraiser Friday, Nov. 15 at Colasanti’s Tropical Garden from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. For $20 per ticket, guests will be able to enjoy a dinner along with unlimited rides and mini golf.

The Leamington parade is again being presented by the Leamington and District Chamber of Commerce, the Leamington BIA and the Municipality of Leamington. Koppett Biological Systems has stepped up as a ‘Super Santa Sponsor’ while Leamington GM is an ‘Elf Sponsor’. Once Santa’s sleigh reaches the municipal building at 111 Erie St. North, it will stop to allow Santa to signal the start of fireworks. Included in the parade will be chances to donate canned goods, used clothing and toys to the Leamington Salvation Army, Thrift On Mill and Leamington Toys For Tots.

Spectators will be welcomed to St. John’s Anglican Church at 60 Erie St. North for hot chocolate and cookies. Washroom facilities will be available there.

Pictured here are owner Karen Harris and her chefs and servers from Thirteen at the Inn.

Thirteen at the Inn wins Best New Restaurant

By Sheila McBrayne

LEAMINGTON – A Leamington restaurant won the title of Best New Restaurant in Essex County from the Ontario Restaurant Hotel and Motel Association for 2019.

Thirteen at the Inn was lauded for its menu, service and overall atmosphere. Located in the lower level of the historic Seacliffe Hotel at 388 Erie Street S., Thirteen at the Inn is owned by Karen Harris. The name Thirteen at the Inn is reminiscent of her family’s longstanding history in Leamington as proprietor of the popular 13 Russell Steak House for more than 30 years. Her parents opened it in 1974 and sold it in 1990.

Karen, her mom and sister bought it back in 1995 until 2006.

Like 13 Russell Steak House, Thirteen at the Inn is a fine dining experience; actually Karen likes to call it “casual finer dining”. The crisp white tablecloths and calming décor paired with the finest cuts of meat, fresh fish and seafood come together to give service and satisfaction.

“I grew up in the restaurant business. I started working in the kitchen at 13.

It’s a different lifestyle, but I don’t know anything else though, and I love it,” said Karen.

Thirteen at the Inn opened in December 2017 in the lower level of the Seacliffe Inn. “There were

Wheatley - Dec. 1, 12:30 p.m.

Santa will make his Wheatley appearance for the Fishing Capital’s parade Sunday, Dec. 1, starting at 12:30 p.m. The parade will take its standard route starting at the intersection of Moore Street and Erie Street South (between Chestnut and Lamarsh Streets), heading north along Erie until it reaches Omstead Drive leading to Wheatley Area Arena.

The Wheatley Christmas Parade has been organized and presented by Wheatley Royal Canadian Legion Branch 324.

Shortly after the parade ends, children will have the opportunity to meet Santa at the Coulter Park Stage in the event of ideal weather conditions or upstairs at the Legion across Erie Street if weather is uncooperative. Visiting youths are encouraged to bring their Christmas wish lists and will receive treats from Santa.

This year’s Wheatley parade will include time-honoured entries including the Legion’s Colour Guard and the Leamington District Secondary School band. Last-minute participants will also be accommodated.

“If you show up on the day of, we’ll find a place for you in the parade,” noted Wheatley Legion member June Rutt.

“We try to encourage everyone to get involved, so we welcome anyone who wants to participate.”

lots of challenges in the first year – like any new business – it’s just getting time under your belt and getting people in the door,” said Karen.

“It’s really nice to be recognized. For the girls, it’s given the girls a real boost in confidence,” said Karen.

She describes the restaurant business as a hospitality business. “The girls are tourist guides. They’re very knowledgeable about the area and all the wineries and enjoy making recommendations. It’s really important to welcome tourists and offer guidance. There’s a lot to offer in Leamington – I think it’s a good time to be in Leamington. We promote local and support local as much as possible,” said Karen.

Thirteen at the Inn is open Monday to Saturday at 5 p.m. and serve lunch on Thursdays and Fridays.

Half Century Centre shows off renovations

Talbot Street and east of town

By Sheila McBrayne

LEAMINGTON – Leamington and District Half Century Centre opened its doors to the public for a grand re-opening after a makeover – inside and outside – on Friday, Nov. 8.

Executive Director Christine Lehn proudly welcomed Leamington’s Mayor Hilda MacDonald and other honoured guests as they cut the ribbon to re-open the recently renovated seniors club.

Wednesday, November 13, 2019

Those attending the grand re-opening of the Leamington and District Half Century Centre were impressed with the variety of renovations completed at the Centre. From left to right are Roy Trowell, Vice President, Christine Lehn, Executive Director, Leamington Mayor Hilda MacDonald, Homer Vandervecht, President, and Cliff Hartwick, Past President.

Half Century Club President Homer Vandervecht reviewed the combination of grants and donations adding up to approximately $100,000 worth of improvements. Work began in mid-July on the kitchen, which received all new counters and cupboards and rearranged existing ap-

pliances to create a more efficient work area, including side-by-side stoves.

Improvements to the washrooms reversed the men’s and ladies and expanded the ladies to two stalls. The $55,000 for the kitchen and bathroom renovations came from the Donna Barrows estate.

Additional washrooms in the hall were also expanded and made wheelchair accessible. The upgrades were funded through a New Horizons for Seniors federal grant of $21,600.

In the gymnasium, the old tiles were ripped up and replaced with an epoxy coating. $10,000 of the $13,000 cost was paid for through a special provincial government grant.

A fresh coat of paint in

the kitchen and bathrooms finished off the interior improvements. Any shortfalls were funded through the Half Century Centre’s regular fundraisers like the sold-out murder/mystery dinner held recently, raffles and the chili cook-off.

“It’s funny when people first walk in who haven’t been here for a while, they say, ‘Oh, you painted’…

They know something is different,” said Lehn.

Legion to host Seniors Dinner

Pictured are the UMEI Gr. 11 drama students during a dress rehearsal of their production “And A Child Shall Lead.” The play will be presented November 29 and December 1 at the school.

(Submitted Photo)

UMEI to present “And A Child Shall Lead” UMEI Christian High School’s Grade 11 Drama class is telling an important story through its production of “And A Child Shall Lead” by Michael Slade.

The play tells the heroic and true story of children growing up in Terezin, the “Jewish City” established by the Nazis near Prague as a way station before the death camps. In the face of unspeakable horror, these children use their creativity and determination to build lives filled with hope and beauty. They play, make art, study and create an underground newspaper, all at the peril of being caught and executed.

The actual poems and stories found in Terezin are woven into this fast-paced drama whose characters are entirely children.

“This play is important because it is still relevant today,” said student Simon Enns. “Teaching the history of racism and stereotyping can make us all better and help us make informed decisions as we grow.”

Student Monica Klassen explained how acting in the play has helped her understand the Holocaust better. “I believe no one will ever be able to completely understand what it was like being persecuted in the Holocaust, but I think it’s important to try,” she said. “The more we understand, the more assurance we have that something like this will never happen again.”

Director Chani Wiens reflected that it was a difficult decision to produce such a heavy play, but she believes it was the right one.

“As hard as it is to hear these stories,” said Wiens, “it is a privilege to tell them and to hear the actual words of children caught in the horrors of war – children who found determination and hope in the darkness. Ultimately, it is a challenge for all of us to remember that there are still children caught in war and that we can all contribute to a better, more peaceful future.”

And A Child Shall Lead is being presented at UMEI on Friday, Nov. 29 at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 1 at 1:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for students.

Workshop/fundraiser focuses on historic homes

KINGSVILLE – The Kingsville Archives volunteers have come up with a unique idea to answer many local inquiries and raise money at the same time.

If you are interested in finding out about the history of your home in this area, you might want to take part in a special workshop that is being presented by Veronica Brown. Veronica has done extensive research on local/historical homes and is offering to share her knowledge and expertise as part of a fundraiser for the Kingsville Archives.

The workshop will take place on Saturday, November 30 from 1:30-3:30 and is limited to 16 participants. It will be held in the Meeting Room at the Kingsville Library (not in the Archives).

Cost for the workshop is $30 per person, which includes a $10 instruction booklet. Participants do not need to bring a laptop or device, just note-taking materials, if wanted.

To sign up for this workshop, contact the Kingsville Archives at 226-348-6377 or kingsvillearchives@ gmail.com. You will need to indicate the property that you are interested in at time of registration. Final regis-

tration date is November 28.

LEAMINGTON – A local apple orchard has once again offered the kind of support that the Windsor-Essex County community can really sink its teeth into.

On Tuesday, Nov. 5, Thiessen’s Orchards co-owners Andrew and Krissy Thiessen welcomed a team of employees representing the Windsor-Essex Children’s Aid Society with a contribution of about 30,000 apples. The 15,000 pound collection of ambrosia and golden delicious apples was arranged into 1,500 bags — enough for approximately one bag each for the Windsor-Essex CAS’s roughly 1,500 client families.

The donation was the fourth of its kind over the past five “There will years.

“We had a really not be one apple nice crop this year and wasted.” a really nice fall for — Derrick weather, without too Drouillard much rain,” explained Andrew Thiessen.

“There were extra apples this year that we wanted to get out into the community. It’s a good arrangement that we didn’t want to see go to waste or juice.”

Windsor-Essex CAS staff, including executive director Derrick Drouillard and manager of public relations and fund development Mike Clark, loaded some bags of apples into their own vehicles while others were loaded onto a truck to be sent to their offices in Windsor and Leamington. Over the next few days, bags were dispersed to the homes of CAS families and in support of the organizations programs.

“There will not be one apple wasted,” explained Drouillard. “It’s amazing how quickly they’ll be spread across Essex County. Something like this makes a difference in nutrition for kids in these families, which is extremely important.

Anything we can do is appreciated by these families, which makes it great to work with a community partner like Thiessen’s.”

The portion of this year’s crop given to the local CAS took three Thiessen’s employees four days to prepare — two days to pick and another two days to bag. The ambrosia and golden delicious varieties given to the local Children’s Aid Society this year are known for being among the sweetest and crunchiest of locally grown apples.

8 year old, Parsons Russell Terrier - Female I love going for walks so I can sniff and check everything out! I have met a few nice dogs here and the people said I was quite nice about it as well so that’s a bonus! I’m such a sweet and smart girl and am looking for a gentle owner. You see, I get uncomfortable if people try to force me to do things, but do much better if you speak to me and teach me with commands, can we learn together?

LILY 1 year old, Female - Hi, I’m Lily. I’ve been here since the end of September! Even though I can be a playful cat, I am looking for a calm and predictable household. I get scared quite easily so having a safe spot for me to run and hide to is important too! Well if I sound like the type of cat you are looking for please come by for a visit, feel free to bring toys!

SENIOR COUGARS: Lekon Mustapha of the Cougars picks up some yardage during the WECSSAA 2A senior football semifinals against the Essex Red Raiders Friday, Nov. 8 at Cardinal Carter.

Junior and senior Cougars win playoff games

starting from Kennedy’s 40 yard line. The PAT kick was unsuccessful, but the second quarter charge continued with Verissimo’s third of the day, this time on a run from the Clippers’ 29. After the PAT, “We played Cardinal Carter’s Kanaan better today than Gale pounced on a kick return earlier in the season fumble at Kennedy’s 25-yard — we’re definitely line. Gale then caught a short getting better.” pass for a touchdown play — Chris without PAT to finish the half Church with a 42-0 advantage.

With the comfortable lead, the Cougars’ coaching staff shuffled players for the third and fourth quarters. The Clip-

Like the falling of leaves and arrival of Christmas decorations, a much-improved Cougars junior football team is evidence that early November has arrived.

After losing their first four games of the season, the Cardinal Carter juniors have bounced back to win two of their last three, including a preliminary playoff game that will send them into their division’s semifinals. On Wednesday, Nov. 6, the Cougars hosted the Kennedy Clippers for a chance to meet one of WECSSAA’s top teams from the regular season. Cardinal Carter dominated from virtually the opening kick off, en route to a convincing 49-0 victory.

“We played better today than earlier in the season — we’re definitely getting better,” noted Cougars head coach Chris Church. “Everyone was blocking well today.”

Cardinal Carter struck twice offensively in the first quarter, starting with a running play by Tiago Verissimo. Quarterback Ian Stanton connected with Andrew Sleiman for a pass that became a 50-yard scoring play in the dying seconds of the quarter. The Cougars took possession of the ball on the ensuing kickoff, which set up Verissimo for a sprint starting at his team’s 43-yard line in the first play of the second quarter. The touchdowns were capped by successful PATs by Parker Steele.

Cardinal Carter’s defense also contributed to the scoring with a third and long play deep in Clippers territory. The guests conceded a two-point safety, bringing the score to 23-0.

Sleiman found the end zone for another major, this time

pers managed a handful of first downs, but were still kept out of the home team’s end zone. Jackson Cinicolo got in on the scoring with a catch and short run across the zero yard line in the third, capped with a PAT kick to complete the scoring.

A Kennedy defensive back snagged a Cardinal Carter pass in his own end zone and nearly advanced to midfield to thwart further scoring in the fourth — a play that signalled the end of the game.

In a 2A semifinal match, the Cougars senior football team hosted the Essex Red Raiders Friday, Nov. 8. By winning 26-20, Cardinal Carter earned the right to face Kennedy in the WECSSAA championship game. The match will take place at the University of Windsor’s field Thursday, Nov. 14 with a 4 p.m. start.

Erie North Shore Atom Black outpaces Southpoint Red Erie North Shore Atom Black wrapped up a short road trip heading east of Jasperson this past weekend to play Southpoint Red on the Olympic ice.

Puck movement and foot speed was Coach Morphet’s game plan and Jasper Dunford wasted no time to proving its merits as he solved Southpoint’s netminder early in the first off of a beauty neutral zone feed from Maddox Bernardes.

Twine tenders Sam Ward (Black) and Sonny Coppola (Red) entertained fans for the next two periods as neither squad could find holes big enough for a puck to fit. Trent Kocsis, Rocco Baillargeon, Hunter Cornies and Corbin Azzopardi worked relentlessly for Coach Ross on the back end to limit Southpoint’s chances.

As the third period wound down, Red temporarily tied the game off a Southpoint forward’s skate, but the refs saw a ‘distinct kicking motion’. This served as the ENS turning point as Keaton Morphet challenged the league speed record for consecutive markers, lighting the lamp nine seconds apart with Lake Severin and Cornies credited with assists.

Ward went flawless wire-to-wire notching another shutout.

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you may have to make your own opportunities rather than waiting for some to fall in your lap. Only then can you prove to others what you’re worth.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Few things rustle your feathers, Taurus. But when your ire is up, take a step back to collect yourself. Use the latter half of the week to get things back in order.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 It may take a few steps in the wrong direction to realize you need to change course, Gemini. But smooth sailing will soon prevail. Stay the course.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, with many new changes happening in your life, you may be wishing for the familiarity of things you once had. Revisit photo albums or talk to old friends for nostalgia.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, when you take a stand, others are sure to take notice at what you have to say. You have the kind of magnetism and presence to garner the attention and support of others.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Work-related stress may not go away entirely, but you can find a way to reduce it, Virgo.

Indulge in a long lunch with coworkers or take a much-needed day off to clear your mind.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 It may take some extra motivation for you to get moving on a project at home, Libra.

But once the momentum takes hold, it will be smooth sailing for several days.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Many times it is not what you say but what you do not say that has the most impact, Scorpio. Consider your words carefully before speaking up.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Managing a household can be just as important as keeping your professional life running smoothly, Sagittarius. Give yourself a pat on the back if you’re accomplishing both.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 A vacation may be just what the doctor ordered, Capricorn. Begin researching destinations now and figure out the best way to finance a trip to get away and soak up the sun.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 A change of scenery may do you some good in the days ahead, Aquarius. See if you can fit in an extended weekend to clear your mind.

Atom Grey defeats Essex Southpoint’s Community Trophy Atom Grey team took on Essex Orange last week. It was a game that involved Southpoint making uncharacteristic mistakes in the defensive end. Most involved weak or errant clearing passes.

Fortunately they were able to recover from the errors, but Essex did score the only goal in the first period.

Southpoint started to make things happen offensively in the second. For their first goal, Gavin Butineillo made a beautiful pass out front to Nicolas Magri who promptly fired the puck into the Essex net. Connor Rumble-Anastacio was the next Southpoint player to score. Skating the length of the ice, he made a number of nice moves around Essex defenders before firing the puck into the net. Reid Charles and Sean Amaral picked up assists. On the next goal, Connor sped past players into the Essex end and wired a slap shot into the top corner of the Essex net. Landon Carlini picked up an assist.

One more goal was scored by Southpoint in the third. Sean maneuvered the puck into the Essex end and from a sharp angle took a shot that slipped under the Essex goaltender. The game ended 4-1 in favour of Grey.

During the game, Southpoint forward Kyle Bradley made numerous passes to teammates which helped to open the game up. Brady Walker demonstrated solid defensive skills.

Sharks blanked by Canadiens

By Bryan Jessop

For the second time in as many games, the Wheatley Omstead Sharks ran into a defensive wall against the Lakeshore Canadiens.

The Sharks hosted the defending Stobbs Division champs for a Wednesday, Nov. 6 contest, where the Canadiens again won in a shutout performance. This time, Lakeshore posted a 3-0 victory, thanks in large part to some unlucky bounces for the hosts.

“We played better in the second and third, but you can’t get behind two or three goals against a team like that and then expect to come back,” explained Sharks head coach Josh Carnevale. “Their defensive structure is good and we haven’t been able to solve it for the past couple years. They’ve got a lot of Junior B drop downs, which helps them. It’s just a hump that we’ll have to learn how to get over.”

Wheatley started the opening frame on a quick offensive pace, but cooled off after a couple unlucky bounces put the hosts down 2-0. The scoring began when a shot “Their defensive at Jackson Ford was deflected and then took a bounce structure is good and through the crease before hopping over the goal line. we haven’t been able Matt Smith scored the goal, potted just beyond the fiveminute mark. Three minutes later, a Hunter Bailey shot to solve it for the past ricocheted off a Sharks defenseman and into the left side couple years.” of Ford’s net.

— Josh Carnevale Lakeshore appeared to go up 3-0 in the early seconds of its first power play, but officials declared that the net had been dislodged from the goal line beforehand.

Wheatley’s offense started the second period in much the same fashion as the first, registering the first five shots before the Canadiens’ forwards could respond. Matt Tovell, however, managed to keep Wheatley off the scoreboard from between the guest team’s posts. With less than a minute to go, Tycen Chittle added to Lakeshore’s lead with a shorthanded tally.

The Sharks outshot the Canadiens 6-1 by the third period’s midway point, but continued to be foiled by Tovell. Neither team added to the scoresheet in the final frame, extending Wheatley’s scoring drought against Lakeshore to 120 minutes. The Sharks outshot their guests 31-24 and went zero for four on the man advantage while the Canadiens were held to zero for two.

On Friday, Nov. 8, the Sharks paid their first visit of the season to Dresden to take on the Kings. Wheatley won the game 5-1, with Sharks goals provided by Alixe Saliba, Braydon Davis, Jace Leach (2) and Josh Bennett. The Sharks were outshot 32-27, but Kyle Metson performed well in the visitors’ net while his team went one for three on the power play as the guests were held to zero for five.

The Sharks’ next home game will take place Wednesday, Nov. 13 at 7:30 p.m. against the Blenheim Blades.

Coats For Kids

LEAMINGTON – Several families from across the Leamington area paid a visit to the South Essex Community Council headquarters on Talbot Street West Monday, Nov. 11 to select new winter coats, hats, gloves, mittens and snow pants — as well as spring coats in preparation for warmer weather — as part of this year’s local Coats For Kids program. The three-day event took place at the SECC Saturday, Nov. 9, Monday, Nov. 11 and Tuesday, Nov. 12, where visitors made size-appropriate selections from men’s, women’s, girls’ and boys’ gently used clothing donated from across the community earlier this fall. Once again, Fletcher’s and Kennedy Cleaners served as drop off points and cleaned donations free of charge. Although the program ended Tuesday, donations can still be picked up by families and individuals in need by contacting the Leamington SECC office. During the three-day period, a waiting list was also created for visitors in search of articles that were not available in their sizes upon their arrival.

It’s time to bring back the trees

Letter to the Editor: From the dawn of civilization, humans have unwittingly been messing big time with Mother Nature.

Trees for our earliest ancestors and almost to the present meant firewood for warmth and for cooking food. Then as we spread across the planet and settled on agriculture, trees in countless millions were cut down to give us the open land for rice paddies and waving fields of grain, and for grazing our flocks of domestic animals.

Planet-wide destruction of trees gave up the carbon in their wood as carbon dioxide CO2 to the atmosphere. There it stayed, finding fewer trees to soak it back up. CO2 is a greenhouse gas that traps heat, and earth’s climate was adjusted in a new direction. Just when earth’s wobbly orbit around the sun was calling for another ice age, instead the planet began to warm.

Then came the industrial revolution. First coal then oil fueled spreading travel on land and sea. The 20th century brought cars, aircraft, urban sprawl and electrification. Ontario Hydro, now Hydro One, took dominance over land and cityscapes. Rather than going safely underground, Hydro chose overhead lines, exposing its customers to power blackouts. And it placed a death sentence on more millions

of trees.

On our daily travels, we’ve become adjusted and unfeeling to our main streets where the beauty and function of overspreading trees has been replaced by the ultimate ugliness of marching hydro poles. They take us to wide shopping plazas similar in appearance to a Sahara Desert setting.

Only recently has humans’ insistent quest for knowledge revealed the extensive link between human activity, carbon dioxide and climate. The term “global warming” is barely 50 years old. New research estimates that a worldwide planting of trees on 4.2 billion acres of barren unused land on earth could remove 2/3 of CO2 emissions resulting from human activities.

Almost too late, gathering sources are trying to awaken and educate people on the crucial benefit of trees, “the quiet workhorses of nature.” To their great credit, many of our younger generation understand, and are responding by demanding action that’s been too long overlooked by their seniors.

For them, for all of us, the time has come to “bring back the trees!”

1954 Chevrolet Wagon is a delight Ian Townshend-Carter of Brampton writes: “Good morning, Bill. Sorry for sending this to you in the middle of the week but the wind has been blowing the last few days and ‘the wind wait for no man.’ When it is windy, I windsurf.

“The car is a 1954 Chev 210 Handyman. Called the “Tin Woody,” it is the first year of a woody car without the wood. It is all original, right down to the vacuum windshield wipers. This is not some polished and pampered car that only comes out on a sunny Sunday on the Queen’s birthday. This is a working windsurfing machine that hits the beach as soon as there is wind. Yes, there really is a windsurfer Bill Sherk living in Brampton, and I am a professional windsurfer in The Beaches district of Toronto.

“I do all the maintenance and work on this car. With a shop manual purchased for $40 at a swap meet in Lindsay, and a ‘guy,’ Don Whitehead of Transportation Consultants in Bolton, as my advisor when I get stumped, I do everything. It is fun and relatively simple.”

When Ian bought the vehicle, it needed brakes and a new U-joint. He wanted a Chevy because parts are easy to get. And he wanted a ’54 because he was born in 1954. Originally blue, it is now green.

The engine is Chevy’s overhead-valve six with 235 cubic inches and a 3-speed manual shift on the steering column (“three on the tree”). Ian learned gear-shifting on trucks and enjoys having the vehicle all original, right down to the six-volt battery. The only upgrade is the addition of two seatbelts on the bench front seat. Vinyl seats are slippery and the belts keep occupants from sliding back and forth on turns.

Ian bought the “Tin Woody” in 2017 after seeing it parked outside with other vehicles in

the Burlington area. He expressed interest in buying it but nothing developed. Six months later, the owner called and was ready to deal.

Originally from New Mexico, someone in Niagara Falls imported it into Canada around 1997. It has been in Ontario ever since.

Ian says his Tin Woody is “a delight to work on and a delight to drive.”
