"They're really keen to be part of the family busi- ness," Lori says of Toni and Sharia. Lori says she's pleased with how the business has taken off since June and said she hopes it contin- ues to grow. Lori says she and Wynn opened the business because they noticed a deficit in the sound sys- tem, lighting andcomput- er market in this area. Wynn, a full-time comput- er technician with the Avon Maitland District School Board, has been working with computers and sound system installa- tion for about 15 years. Lori, a full-time registered nurse, said so far she and Wynn have been able to schedule their Cool Breeze responsibilities around their full-time jobs. The goal for the busi- ness is to become so busy that Wynn has to quit his job with the school board and work full time for Cool Breeze. Recent work Wynn has done is the lighting at the International Plowing Match. He's also installed sound systems at churches and businesses. Cool Breeze also rents out sound sys- tems for outdoor wed- dings and receptions. As they just started in June, Lori says she and Wynn will begin adding more equipment to their collection so they can offer more services. And where did Wynn and Lori get the name Mark McLlwain Cool Breeze? As Lori explains, there is always a cool breeze where they live in Stephen Twp. and the words also appear in a Chuck Berry song, "You Can't Catch Me." 183 Main St, Exeter 235-1344 or 1-877-235-1344 (toll free) Respresenting Clarica Life Insurance Company and Clarica Investco Inc. } CLARI CA Investment and insurance solutions Since 1870 FREE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID TO HELP YOU SEE THE FALL COLOURS.
