31st Special Olympics
Torch Run on June 12
The Ontario Law Enforcement
Torch Run (LETR) will be making
its annual trek into Huron County
next week and everyone is invited to
come out and participate in this
fantastic event.
Special Olympians, police
officers, family members, friends
and community supporters from all
over Huron County will run, walk
and stroll together on June 12 in an
effort to promote awareness and
raise funds for Special Olympics
Ontario.
This year marks the 31st
anniversary of the Ontario Law
Enforcement Torch Run. Since its
inception in Ontario in 1987, the
LETR has raised more than $35
million and has changed millions of
attitudes.
"This is a day I very much look
forward to every year," said Huron
OPP Torch Run Co-ordinator, Acting
Staff Sergeant Russ Nesbitt. "We
have had rainy days and bright sunny
days but no matter the weather I
know I'm always going to leave
filled with feelings of joy.
"Just being around the athletes and
seeing the smiling faces from all of
the participants is a very rewarding
feeling," he said. "I encourage you to
come out and join in on the fun; I
guarantee you will get to meet some
amazing people and will leave with a
smile on your face."
The Huron County Torch Run
starts at 9 a.m. at the Wingham OPP
Detachment. The run will go through
Wingham ending at the south end
mall. Participants will then be
transported to Blyth, Clinton and
Goderich where they will complete a
run/walk/stroll in each of those
communities.
After completing the final leg in
Goderich, participants and
supporters will meet back at McGee
Motors in Goderich for a celebratory
barbecue.
Any person or business looking to
donate to this cause can donate on
the day of the event by cash or
cheques made payable to Ontario
Special Olympics.
Bus transportation will be
provided free of charge from
Goderich to Wingham. Please arrive
at the Goderich OPP Detachment
located on Courthouse Square prior
to the 8 a.m. departure time.

Nominations begin
By Shawn Loughlin
The Citizen
Since nominations opened just
over a month ago, few locals have
put their names forward to run in
this fall's municipal election.
In Morris-Turnberry, current
Councillor Jamie Heffer has thrown
his hat into the ring to be the
municipality's mayor. Incumbent
Councillor Sharen Zinn and
newcomer Andrew Somers have
both filed to run for councillor
positions.
Current Deputy -Mayor Joe
Steffler is running to be a Seaforth
councillor. Huron East Council
recently eliminated the at -large
deputy -mayor position and decided
to, after the election, promote one of
the councillors to the position.
This is in addition to Curtis
McKinnon, who has filed to run as a
councillor in the Grey Ward.
In Central Huron, Mayor Jim
Ginn is running for the mayor's
position once again. He is the only
person who has officially filed his
nomination papers in Central
Huron.
In North Huron, no one has filed
papers to fill any council spots.
However, Colleen Schenk is running
again to be the area's Avon Maitland
District School Board trustee, while
Denis Trudel has filed to become the
French Separate School board
trustee.
Nominations for the election close
on July 27 at 2 p.m. and the election
is set for Monday, Oct. 22.

Take your base
Whether it's getting walked, getting beaned or finding a hole in the infield defence, getting on
base is getting on base. Brussels Ball Day was held on the weekend at the Brussels Baseball
Diamond and featured games ranging from the youngest of aspiring ball players, including the
Brussels Squirt Girls team taking on Seaforth, above, to the Huron County Fastball League's
Brussels Tigers taking on the Wingham Hitmen. (Hannah Dickie photo)
