• The new pavilion planned for
MacNaughton Park will honour the late Dalton
Finkbeiner, who died in August 2003.
South Huron council gave the recreation
department approval Monday night to proceed
with the $36,000 project, which replaces the
old pavilion earlier torn down due to age and
the potential high costs of maintaining it.
The municipality will kick in $18,000
towards the project, with the Exeter Rodeo
committee donating about $9,000. Other large
donations will come from the Exeter Lioness
Club ($5,000) and the Exeter Lions Club (up to
$4,000).
JUNE 15
• A local man was recently recognized by the
OPP for his help in rescuing a man trapped
inside a vehicle.
Winston Churchill, 55 of Elimville, received
the OPP Commissioner's Citation for Life-sav-
ing at an awards ceremony in Mildmay May
25.
Churchill, who describes his award as "just
awesome," was driving westbound on
Highway 401 Jan. 3 near Tecumseh during a
heavy rain when an eastbound vehicle lost
control, crossed the median and flipped over.

• After six weeks on the job, South Huron
Hospital chief executive officer Debra IIunt
