Zurich Firemen's Breakfast
New owners for Kirkton market
KIRKTON — The grand opening of the Kirkton Market was held
recently with new owners taking over.
The new owners, Blake and Michelle Robinson, along with their
children Jillian and Zackary, have made a few improvements to the
store, but have kept the country charm that is evident in the village
of Kirkton.
Winners of the door prizes were Terry Johns, Rob Traut, Murray
Switzer, Jake Dennotter, Darlene McBride and Eva Shamblaw.

POLICE BRIEFS
Impaired driver
hits parked car
GRAND BEND — On Aug. 2 a Lambton OPP
officer was conducting bicycle patrol at the
main beach parking lot in Grand Bend. It is
alleged that the officer observed a 1999
Mercury driving very slowly through the lot.
The male driver's upper body was leaning
out the driver's window and he was yelling
at people. The driver then opened his door
and almost fell out as his vehicle struck a
parked car. No injuries were reported and
only minor damage was sustained. The dri-
ver was arrested and subsequent tests indi-
cated that a 20 -year-old London man was
over two times the legal limit. He will appear
in Sarnia Court Sept. 29 to answer to the
charges of impaired driving and being over
the legal limit.
Two times legal limit
BLUEWATER — On July 24 a Huron OPP
officer was patrolling Bluewater Highway in
Bluewater when a northbound vehicle
passed at a high rate of speed. The vehicle
continued northbound through Bayfield at a
speed above the posted 50 kph limit. The
officer initiated a traffic stop and while
speaking to the driver, determined that the
driver was exhibiting classic symptoms of
impairment. The driver was arrested and
taken to the Huron OPP Detachment where
he met with a qualified breathalyzer techni-
cian and provided two samples of his breath.
The readings confirmed the driver to have
approximately two times the legal limit of
alcohol in his system. A 35 -year-old Ingersoll
man was charged with impaired driving and
driving with over 80 milligrams of alcohol in
his system. His driver's licence was suspend-
ed for 90 days. He returns to Goderich Court
Sept. 29 to answer to his charges.
