Participants can win cash prizes

ALMONT If you
are a devout fan of the
Almont Raiders and pos-
sess a creative flair, you are
officially invited to take
part in the Almont DDAs
9th annual Scarecrow
Decorating Contest.
The 2017 competition
is sponsored by the Almont
Downtown Development
Authority, Almont
Chamber of Commerce,
Yarbrough Insurance Group
and Charlie Browns Creme
Cone.
The theme of this years
contest is Home of the
Raiders and coincides
with Almont High Schools
2017 Homecoming football
game on Friday, Oct. 13
versus the Imlay City
Spartans.
DDA Director Kim
Schall said all individuals,
families, businesses, ser-
vice clubs and organiza-
tions are encouraged to
enter the contest and dem-
onstrate their support for
this years Raiders.
Schall said all partici-
pants will be eligible to win
one of three top prizes,
ranging from $50 for
third place and $75 for sec-
ond place to $100 for first
Other school-related
features are the numerous
historical Almont photos
adorning the hallways, and

the lobby, whose rope
Novak sometimes pulls to
welcome visitors.
Kathy Eschenburg, a
retired Almont kindergar-
ten teacher, toured the
facility and reflected on
the transformation she had
witnessed.
When I walked down
the halls again, I was
struck by the contrast,
said Eschenburg. Those
halls used be crazy with
energy and filled with the
loud, joyful voices of chil-
dren.
What Mr. Novak has
been able to accomplish is
to provide a beautiful,
peaceful environment for
an older population to live
and enjoy.
Iwas very pleased to done in the time we had to
see how he used the old
photos and school-related
themes as part of the reno-
vation, Eschenburg
added. It makes for a
smooth transition and
allows the old school to
continue being used to
place.
The participation cost
is $10 for each scarecrow
entered in the contest.
Participants must cre-
ate their own scarecrows
using pre-assembled frames
which are available at the
Almont Village offices on
Howland Rd.

Schall said completed
scarecrows must be brought

~ James William Shenck,
D.D.S., 69 ~
James William Shenck,
D.D.S., P.C., 69, of Lapeer
and Burton, died Sunday
October 1, 2017. He was
born December 14, 1947
in Warren, PA to parents
Harry and Elizabeth
(Miller) Shenck. Jim
proudly served in the
United States Air Force.
He began his marriage and
lifelong unity with Anne
L. Lucas on December 1,
1973 in Pleasant Valley,
PA.
Dr. Jim had many
degrees and certificates
over the years; highest of
which was a Doctorate of
Medical Dentistry. He has
passionately owned and
operated the James W.
Shenck, D.D.S., P.C.
Dentistry for Children
office in Burton since Nov.
18, 1978 through present
day. Professionally, he was
one of the good guys; in
business to care for and
truly help people, not for a
high volume impersonal
experience. Dr. Jim had a
sincere interest in his
patients and their lives,
almost considering them
like family. He has been a
member of many profes-
sional clubs, organizations
as well as special interest
clubs throughout the years.
Dr. Shenck was considered
an avid car enthusiast;
from antiques, classics,
specialty to current models
always showing a prefer-
ence to maintain historic,
stock originality. A cura-
tor of sorts; to many
diverse interests of the
past. His family knew a
do-it-yourself side, to a
point of micro-managing
anyone helping his cause.

The thing is that
sometimes I have trouble
getting along without
them that long. The black
ones have gotten mis-

got packed away in the
basement this spring and
we havent found them
back yet.
So, as I started to say,
I was lacing up that trusty
pair of tennis shoes for
BSF (Bible Study
Fellowship), thinking they
looked a tad too casual for
the occasion. All I could
think is, These shoes are
for walking. Period.
When I sat down at
BSF, I noticed that a
woman sitting near me
was also wearing well
seasoned tenniesones something painful going
with slider backs. Halfway
through, she slipped out
of one of them, giving me
my cue to ask. Noticed

your shoes. Must be your
Dr. Jims federally regis-
tered house is a great
example of all that has
been said; he exhausted
many hours researching
and taking pride in main-
taining its historic registra-
tion, with great detail.
Above much else, Jim had
a good sense of humor,
was a devoted husband
and family man and
known to them as: not a
simple man but he lived a
simple life.
Dr. Shenck is survived
by his wife of 43 years,
Anne Shenck; children,
Matthew (Marcy) Shenck
of Otsego, Julia (fianc,
Tim Purdue) Shenck of
Dryden; and three grand-
children. He was preceded
in death by his parents.
The family has entrust-
ed cremation to Muir
Brothers Funeral Home,
Lapeer. A memorial gath-
ering will be scheduled in
the near future (continue
checking our website for
updates). Interment will
eventually take place at
Great Lakes National
Cemetery, Holly.

have an appointment after
this. Im not really

I had no idea what that

but I determined to look it

than I expected, but
Google is pretty good at

say is...Ouch!
So there you have it.
You never know what the
person next to you is
going through. This little

shoes. But its
just a little reminder that
everyone has something.
Most of us look pretty put

be visible on the outside,
or it may be buried deep

Box elder trees are toxic to horses
TRI-CITY AREA
Seasonal Pasture Myopathy
(SPM) is an equine muscle
disease which can be fatal
in 90 percent of cases. The
fall season appears to be
when horses are at the high-
est risk of being affected by
SPM with fewer horses
affected in the spring and
summer. Seeds of the box-
elder tree, a maple species
(Acer negundo) containing
the toxin hypoglycin A,
have been associated with
Seasonal Pasture Myopathy
in horses. Ingestion of suf-
ficient quantities of box-
elder seeds containing this
toxin blocks fat metabolism
and breaks down respirato-
ry and postural muscle
cells.
Its important to under-
stand that horses do not
naturally eat boxelder tree
seeds. In fact, some horses
may live in a pasture where
boxelder trees exist without
ever being affected by
SPM. However, there are
some important risk factors
to consider when deciding
what to do with pastures

Do not expose horses
to pastures with boxelder
trees in the fall if:
Horses are young or

Pasture is over-

Horses are turned out
on pasture for more than 12
hours per day.
Horses on pasture
are not provided with sup-
plemental hay.
Cut down the tree.
Although cutting down a
female boxelder tree in a
respective pasture may
eliminate the immediate
risk, it will not necessarily
remove all risks because
wind may blow boxelder
seeds a long distance from
trees located outside the
pasture.
Ensure your horse is
fed before being turned out
on fall pastures and has
access to hay while on fall
pastures.
Reduce turn-out time

Bombshell Variety Show is October 22
Maple Vista Ladies Guild hosts unique fashion show, luncheon
By Catherine Minolli
cminolli@pageone-inc.com
IMLAY CITY
Looking to spice things up
a little bit? You can do just
that at the Bombshell
Variety Show slated for
Sunday, October 22 at
Maple Vista, formerly
known as Sanctuary at
Maple Vista.
From 1:30-3:30 p.m.,
guests will enjoy a fashion
and variety show, along
with a unique menu that
includes appetizers, a main
course and dessert.
Hosted by the Ladies
Guild of Maple Vista, the
Bombshell Variety Show
offers a blast from the past
when it comes to fashion
and food.
Centered around the
popular pin up type art
and fashion from the 1940s
and 50s, the show will
feature clothing and enter-
tainment of the time.
Its something differ-
ent, says Crystal
Campagne, community
manager at Maple Vista.
Come take a tour and be prepared
Weve had regular fash-
ion shows before but never
one based on a time peri-
od.
Campagne, who par-
ticipates in Pin Up shows
to raise funds for charities,
says the residents have
really warmed up to the
idea.
It really engaged the
residents because it goes
back to their youth, she
says.
Campagne says she got
into the genre after win-
ning a contest where the
prize was a class at the
Alfie Jean Charm School
in Port Huron.
We learned about the
history of pin up, the poses,
styling and the like, she
says. It was a lot of fun
and I started making
friends with other girls
who were doing it.
From there, Campagne
says, it was a short trip to
participating in shows and
events.
Campagne says some
of the friends shes met
along the pin up path are
Home is where
the is
taking part in the October
22 show as well.
Im really excited
about it and so are the gals
I know. Almost every show
we do is for charity, so this
is a natural fit.
Visitors can expect to
see period fashions, includ-
ing hair and makeup styles
of the 1940s and 50s, a
variety show that includes
things like ukulele playing,
song and dance, a comedy
act and a Lucy and Desi
skit from the popular 1950s
I Love Lucy show.
Menu items include
appetizers Gatling Guns,
Hokey Pokey Pinwheels,
and Cats Meow Cheese
Platter. Dinner includes
Bonkers Roast Beef or
Peachy Keen Pork Loin,
Dreamboat Red Skin
Potatoes, and Killer Diller
Carrots. The Famous
Humdinger Dessert Buffet
along with some Hot Joe,
will be served for dessert.
Tickets are $12 each
and are available at Maple
Vista during regular busi-
ness hours Monday through
Friday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
The event is expected to
fill up fast, so early ticket
purchase is advised. Tickets
