Fisher-Bezaire feud nets $10,000 for CNIB Susan Hundertmark .111.11211111 Seaforth's Bob Fisher is going to be flipping burgers soon at Willy's in Clinton. "I'm so embarrassed - I got spanked," he gays of Huron East los- ing a wager with Central Huron by $2,000 while fundraising for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) during this year's Walk for Independence. Fisher, retired owner of Seaforth's Pizza Train and Seaforth councillor, challenged John Bezaire, owner of Willy's Burger Stop and deputy - reeve of Central Huron for the sec- ond year that Huron East could raise more than Central Huron. While last year's challenge involved Bezaire cutting Fisher's lawn with a pushmower wearing a "certain item of apparel" if he lost and Fisher working for a week at Willy's if he lost, this year it will be double the effort. While Fisher disputed last year's results because he thought the totals did not include some of the donations from the St. Columban and Dublin area, this year he says he can't complain. "This year, they asked everyone where they were from. It's clean," he says. While Fisher raised $2,500 him- self - his highest total ever - Huron East's total of $4,000 was $2,000 below Central Huron's total- of $6,000, half of which was raised by Gwen Stirling, of Clinton, who was the event's top fundraiser. "Next year, I can't possibly win without Gwen," says Bezaire, who adds Stirling is moving from the area.. "There'll be no rematch. I'm going to retire the champion," he says. Bezaire admits he himself raised $300 of the $6,000. Bezaire that since Huron East is "substan- tially larger" than Central Huron both geo- graphically and by population Huron East will likely win with- out . Stirling's efforts. "She was tenacious," he says. Fisher is not taking Bezaire's reluctance to compete next year seriously. "We'll figure out something to get him going," he says. In the mean- time, he's trying to save face over the loss. "Obviously, the people of Central Huron want me to cook for them. That's the only explana- tion," he says. says T T T T t_I. 1__]_ 1 i_ir- IIT I_I 1 r Ir I-. Allif4V - i OF THE WEEK "YOUR RENOVATION AND HOME SPECIALISTS!'
