Lights and radar deflectors on breakwall a go Wednesday morning, November 2, Mayor John Paterson and CAO Bill Marck met with members of the Coast Guard, Federal Ministry of Transportation and the Provincial MTO in regard to the breakwall near Leamington Marina and its future. The MTO has hired a consultant to help them source a supplier and installer for the radar deflectors and the lights to be mounted on the breakwall. Engineering and designs are to be completed by the end of 2011 and after receiving approval from the Federal Ministry of Transportation, installation should be complete by June 2012. Field testing of different lighting styles will be performed prior to installation. Long term, the same consultant will draw up Terms of Reference for a study to be done on the removal or upgrade to the breakwall. The Coast Guard will wait to see the results of this lighting before making a decision on changing their existing signal lights on the breakwall. “All in all, it was a very good meeting,” said Mayor Paterson. “Lots of co-operation between the three levels of government agencies, and it appears that we are moving ahead on schedule.” The Leamington breakwall has been the focus of attention several times over the years because of the boating accidents and nearmisses that have occurred at the site, the most recent being in June of this year when three people lost their lives.

St. Louis students tour Agriville On November 3 the Grade 3 classes of Miss Minaudo, Mrs. Amicone and Mrs. Cinocolo’s from St. Louis Elementary School took a field trip to Agriville - a division of Mucci Farms - to bring their study of the Plant Life Cycle to a fun and adventurous end. Once the students arrived at Argiville they were greeted by employees Emily, Fabio and Mary Kathryn who helped each student with their lab coats and hair nets, which showed the students the importance of health and safety. Caleb Garet asked, “Do boys have to wear hairnets?” He continued to explain that he really doesn’t have that much hair to cover. Health and Safety standards state that everyone must wear hair-

nets. Students were divided into two groups. One group ate veggies with dip, coloured in picture of veggies and completed a crossword, while the other half went on the tour with Fabio Ingratta, one of the growers at Agriville. The students were presented with the choice of
M&M candies or veggies with dip. The winners, hands down, were the veggies. Agriville has 40 acres of greenhouses and are expanding to 55 acres at their Kratz Side Road location. Agriville’s name comes from “Agriculture” and “Kingsville”. Agriville also donates
to St. Louis Elementary School’s Healthy Snack Program. To bring the tour of Agriville to an end, all students were given a veggie-to-go package that contained “Sundrop Tomatoes”, “Cute Cucumbers” and “Bella Sweet Peppers”
