  • only will be charged $8 for a day pass covering four persons with an ad-ditional child assessed $2. Those wanting to use the waterslide as well pay $13 for a family pass and $4 for each addition-al child.

    Guests using the pool only will be charged $1

    more this year, bringing the new price structure to $4 for youths and se-niors and $5 per adult. Throw in the water slide too and those same guests are charged an additional $5 for youth, $7 for adults and $6 for seniors.

    Residents taking swim lessons in levels 1-6 will now pay $5 more and the adult survival swim class is now $40, up $5.

    pation on the Sea Serpents competitive swim team is now $100, up from $85.

    Esler said the team, taught by basically coach-es at the professional lev-el compete against teams from the neighboring five

    Grosse Pointes. The team trains for eight weeks, five days a week.

    Esler broke down the economics of the antici-pated annual revenue in-creases thusly:

    Increasing the swim lesson cost is estimated to bring in an additional $3,485.

    Calling the cost of the family pool pass still a great bargain, the $25 hike assessed to the 450 families that purchased a pass last year should equate to an increase of $13,615.

    Overall, Esler estimat-ed the facility should bring in an estimated increase in revenue of about $31,000.

    Additional funding, he said, will help offset the costs of upgrades, includ-ing a monitoring system in the childrens pool and in-creasing chlorine costs.

    It needs some work; it needs some help, Esler said of the overall pool ar-ea.

    Chlorine costs in the past few years have in-creased from .87 cents a gallon to $1.33. Esler said of the nine or so times the chlorine is pumped through the pool, the cost is about $6,000 for the es-timated 500 gallons of chlorine needed for the flush.

    the amount exceeded a previously approved threshold for expenditures not needing councils ap-proval and received no valid answer. Nothing more acceptable was men-tioned at councils March 17 meeting, nor was a fol-low-up requested.

    The source of both ma-terials have been traced to the gun range located in the buildings basement where asbestos tiles were remediated, Scott Chandler, industrial hy-giene manager at TEC, told council earlier this month.

    For more than a decade its occupied a spot some-where in the childrens section of the library.

    And for nearly as long, patrons have supported it at a staggering rate.

    Im amazed, said li-brarian Dale Humeston. Over the years hundreds and hundreds of dollars have come from it. Its something else.

    Humeston, and former librarian Sue Mahalik masterminded the idea of a wishing well, and then put this idea into action.

    My husband actually got the barrel and Sue and I actually built the roof, she said. Then a man who had done some cutouts for us in the past made the cover for the barrel. Then

    we decorated it and did our best to make it look like a wishing well. Its just another project we came up with, boy, 10 or 12 years ago now.

    Since then, adults and children alike have tossed loose change and even

    a few bills into the well.People have just put

    money into it for a long time, she said. Over and over they seem to do it.

    The money collected is used to buy books for the childrens section, Humeston said.

    Every book we buy we record over by the well, she said. Theres a big binder over there that has every book listed that weve ever purchased with that wishing well money. That way people can see what their money is being

    spent on.The books purchased

    arent your ordinary titles either.

    We try to get something that would appeal to chil-dren, but might be a little outside of the normal, she said. We buy something

    thats a little more fun for the kids.

    Humeston said a few times each year the money

    is collected and books pur-chased.

    The kids love it, she said. And you can hear

    them sometimes asking their parents for a penny or a quarter to put in the well. Its really great.

    If city councils opin-ions resonate throughout the community, everyone loves the new trash and recycle bins put into place almost one year ago.

    But some still havent received their carts and those placing orders soon will have to pay a few ad-ditional dollars for the carts, according to Department of Public Works Director Bryan Babcock.

    Babcock was before

    council last week asking a contract with cart manu-facturer Cascade Engineering of Grand Rapids be continued until it is determined it no lon-ger meets the needs of the city. The only issue, he said, is because of the ris-ing cost of resin, used to manufacture the carts is rising, the increase of $2.31 for the 96 gallon and $1.75 for the 64 gal-lon is being passed on to residents.

    In addition, the city must begin assessing the

    state 6 percent sales tax on the carts, an oversight, Babcock said.

    We never sold any-thing before, he said of his department. The cost, he said, has been ab-sorbed by the city.

    At current prices, the 96-gallon cart, including tax, is $48.02 and the 64-gallon cart is $41.17.

    Babcock said the con-tract negotiated with Cascade last May asked the pricing be held through June of 2013 and was actually held through January.

    Because the manufac-turing costs is based on the resin costs, Babcock said Cascade has agreed to lower the costs if the price of resin also declines.

    Based on an average of the departments most re-cent orders, Babcock be-lieves the city will need 1,160 96 gallon and 970 64 gallon carts annually. His plan is to order carts quar-terly, as the DPW only has enough space to store be-tween 500 and 1,000 of

    the unassembled carts.In addition, Babcock

    said Cascade is providing replacement parts for the carts and is honoring the warrantees.

    Issues he said, a re very few and very far be-tween with the most common being the wheels

    come off or the bar used to hoist the bins into the garbage truck become loose.

    Babcock said his de-partment, as well as em-ployees of Rizzo the citys trash hauler have helped or repaired broken carts for residents.

    By Debra PascoeEditor

    Trash cart costs rise slightly

    As council contemplated continuing a contract for trash cart manufacturing, other queries arose.

    Councilwoman Candice Rusie told Department of Public Works Director Bryan Babcock she is still re-ceiving complaints from residents who said they or-dered carts in July and have still yet to receive them.

    They paid their money and their checks cashed, Rusie said, whats most disconcerting is the resi-dents werent told the carts were on back order when they purchased them.

    Babcock told Rusie hed do a better job at keep-ing the carts in stock, as he started running out in January, as the DPW has only enough space to keep 500 to 1,00 of the disassembled carts in storage. He also said hed try to assure residents are made aware of items on back order.

    Its nice to see residents embracing this, Rusie said of the high interest in the carts and the recy-cling bins.

    Babcock said it is possible an order could be lost, He explained the procedure is once the cart is or-dered and paid for at the citys cashiers office in city hall, it is transcribed onto a spread sheet, delivered to the DPW and deliveries are scheduled.

    The delay, he said, is partially due to the severe weather conditions.

    The people that make these deliveries are also plowing, he said.

    Councilman Chris Vitale suggested the DPW con-sider making assembled carts available to residents for pickup one day a week. The city, he said, may be able to save a few dollars by reducing the number of deliveries that have to be made and help residents by reducing the wait time.

    Babcock said the department has made available a similar service to residents who have had their cart stolen or broken and would look into the feasibility of implementing Vitales idea.

    Babcock said should residents swap trash bins with each other, the warranty is still valid, however, the cart numbers should be transferred to the new owner through his department for record-keeping purposes.

    Residents having issues with their carts, in need of one or want to check on an order are asked to call the DPW at (586) 445-5382.

    Questions and concerns about recycling carts need to be directed to Rizzo, the citys waste hauler.

    At left, students from Keith Bovenschen School show their enthusiasm for the show just moments before the opening number began last Friday afternoon. Shorewood Kiwanis volunteer Lou Caloia, above, helps organize the hundreds of goody bags given out to guests at the Special Needs Childrens Day Ice Show.

    The cost of trash carts similar to these pictured are on the rise for res-idents, increasing $2.31 for 96 gallon carts and $1.75 for 64 gallon carts.

    More trash talk

    More than 1,100 special needs children and adults gathered for one of the communitys longest standing traditions the Shorewood Kiwanis Special Needs Childrens Day Ice Show.

    I would say this is the most people weve had here in five years, said

    Shorewood Board of Directors member Karen Biafora. Which is a very good thing.

    Fellow board member, Dr. Karl Papa, agreed.

    I think this is wonder-ful, he said. Thats what this is all about, thats what the Shorewood Kiwanis is all about. We want to see smiles on the faces of these kids and

    adults and were seeing a lot of those here today. Its great.

    Guests came from as far away as Port Huron, Biafora said, and as close as St. Clair Shores.

    We dont just stick to our home city, she said. We reach out to just about everyone in Macomb County and even a little beyond that.

    The crowd was a bit of a throwback to years past, Papa said.

    Its kind of how it use to be, Papa said. Recently the crowd has been less because of transportation issues for some places and economics for others. This year were up where we want to be, filled to the rim in here.

    The audience was en-

    tertained by the St. Clair Shores Figure Skating Clubs show, Reflections on Ice, which performs the show in its entirety for the group.

    Theyve been just a great partner, Biafora said. Were very grateful to them, very grateful.

    The Shorewood Kiwanis pick up the tab for the mornings show,

    but its a small price to pay for the smiles and happiness it brings, Papa said.

    It costs us around $2,500 to put this on, he said. But this is what we do. And for a lot of this kids and adults, they dont get the chance to do things like this very often. Were thrilled to be able to provide this for them.

    March is reading month at Lakeview Public Schools.

    Programs and activi-ties, at the elementary schools in particular, are slated throughout March, each one designed to get students excited about reading and enthusiastic about books.

    Last Friday. athletes from Lakeview High School spent time with students from each ele-mentary school, reading to classes throughout much of the afternoon.

    I think this kind of program is very valuable to our students, Greenwood Elementary School Principal Diane Koenig said. Children get engaged with this and its very important for our students to see these old-er kids engaged and en-joying reading.

    Lakeview Public Schools Reading Specialist, Cathy Rustoni, agrees.

    These are people that these kids look up to in the community, thats im-portant, Rustoni said. Along with these athletes weve had middle school students, state represen-tatives, and others come

    in and read. When this happens, these younger kids see that reading is a valuable activity no mat-ter who you are.

    The program, Koenig said, is also important for other reasons.

    Its about making the connections between high school and elemen-tary schools, she said. About that link between the grade levels, between the schools in the district. Thats important too.

    Believe it or not, initia-tives such as March is

    Reading Month are vital, Rustoni said.

    With technology like it is, Rustoni said. We need these types of things to really get kids excited to read. You have to re-member, these kids were raised on cell phones and iPads. Getting them excit-ed to read a book can be more difficult than it was in the past. A program like this can help with their enthusiasm to read. It brings reading to the forefront again.

    A reading night for par-

    ents and families, buddy reading programs, and guest readers such as State Representative Sarah Roberts, are all part of the mix during March at each of the dis-tricts four elementary schools.

    This year we decided to go with one theme for all four buildings, Rustoni said. Its called The Magic of Reading. The principals have been so cooperative and sup-portive, and its really been going well.

    No biggieTo the Editor:

    The St. Clair Shores

    Civic League is really making a mountain out of a mole hill by stating they are non-partisan.

    Sarah Roberts being a co-sponsor is a kindness and the nature of Sarah when they needed some support for the portion (of an ice sculpture for the recent Aqua Freeze

    Festival) the league couldnt pay. This in no way means you were en-dorsing her.

    It is in my opinion that you owe Sarah an apolo-gy. And as for non-parti-san, you made it clear as to your political beliefs.

    Grow up ladies. This is real petty.

    Regarding the article titled Shores Theatre takes the city stage, in the Feb. 27, edition of the St. Clair Shores Connection....we need to get the city and state involved to make it hap-pen. If private money can not bring this project around it should be abandoned.

    No city taxpayer mon-ey and no state or federal money.

    OPINION

    When it comes to dec-orat-ing

    your home, go with your instinct and a lot of quick brainstorming to get the job done right.

    Thursday, March 20 marked the first day of spring, and we are wel-coming it with arms up, stretched wide open.

    This past fall, I was like a squirrel gathering nuts be-fore the onset of winter. But instead of nuts I was a crazy squirrel gathering birch trees.

    I didnt realize how much greenery meant to me until one winter while in an airplane, de-scending into Metro Airport after a Caribbean

    cruise before 9/11. Upon arrival, while

    looking out the window of the plane, I exclaimed there are no leaves on the trees!

    That statement made my sister-in-law jump up in her seat, her hand cov-ering her eyes.

    And a few years ago, I missed the green on the trees enough to want a silk tree in the house.

    A couple years after that, I knew I wanted a silk birch tree with a real birch bark trunk.

    This past early fall I found a silk birch tree that was not too wide or over-bearing.

    Making sure to be home before my husband ar-rived, I quickly carried the tree in and around the house to find the right spot it seemed to not

    belong anywhere. Luckily, he came home

    from work just as I found the perfect spot, by the open stairway.

    The leaves help divide that room from the one on the other side of the stairs and add more privacy.

    More importantly, my husband likes it.

    Then in early winter, af-

    ter a windy harbinger day, I saw and retrieved some limbs from a newly fallen birch tree.

    Again rushing around before my husband came home to see branches strewn all around the house, I quickly put the trunk into a tall vintage sil-ver metal tree stand and secured the branches with

    clear-plastic tiesMy husband came

    home to see the tree by the foyer, on the verge of tip-ping over.

    After straightening it out, we put it in the back room of the house.

    It didnt take us long to realize why these two trees became a welcome part of the house. They

    helped us keep cabin fe-ver at bay during this past long, cold winter.

    Keeping your house decorated all year long with freshly cut bouquets of flowers, and even birch trees, will surely brighten your surroundings.

    And after this harsh winter, we all need it.

    Welcome spring!

    We can Help and Your Consultation is Free.

    Im Keith Meadows, owner and operator of American Power Vac, Inc. For years, Ive been improving our communitys

    health one family at a time. By now weve all heard the statistics: 50% of all illness is a direct relation to dirty indoor air and our indoor air is up to 90 times more polluted than outdoor air. Yet, 90% of the calls I re-ceive everyday are from desperate people complaining about dust. They tell me they dust the T.V. on Friday, but by Sunday they are pushing the dust out of the way again so they can watch Dancing with the Stars, and none of them know exactly where its coming from. Well, Im here to tell you that its not because youre a bad housekeeper, I tell people that by simply having your ducts cleaned will drastically reduce house-hold dust, and the reason is, your cold air returns.

    Cold air returns suck in dirty air, and over time it builds up until you have the same type of debris that you would nd in your vacuum bag.

    Visit our website atw w w. A P V C l e a n .com for an actual photo of the debristhat is pulled from a typical home.

    Cold air returns are also the reason new homeowners are experiencingdust. While your drywall was be-ing sanded, your cold air returns sucked all of the dust through the system andit settled on the bottom of the duct lines where a little at a time gets blown back into your home. To prove it, take a walk down into your base-ment, look up at the ceil-ing for thin sheets of tin nailed between your oorjoists. These are your cold air return lines. Give them a good pounding. Youll see puffs of dust seeping out of the edges. That my friends, is the reason you have uncontrollable dust problems!

    This debris cannot be removed without a profes-sional. Which brings me to my next point: choos-ing an air duct cleaning company. Most compa-nies use portable units, which are like a shop vac that you would vacuum your car with, obviously absolutely useless. Then there are companies

    who claim they have a truck-mounted system. In reality, they have a low pow-ered portable system attached inside a van, again, absolutely useless. Visit our website for photos of our equipment vs. portable or truck mounted equipment atwww.APVClean.com.

    American Power Vac has the equipment that is powerful enough to get the job done right and that equipment is a Power Vac truck. It is the most powerful equipment in the industry. This is where the entire truck is the vacuum and the truck motor powers the equipment. Youll know its a Power Vac truck because its the size of an ambulance and when engaged twelve large air bags will come out of the roof. What makes the dif-ference in equipment? Power! To put things into perspective, your furnace moves 2,000 CFMs (cubic feet of air per minute), basi-cally what you feel coming out of your reg-

    ister. Truck-mount-ed equipment only moves 4,000 CFMs. American Power Vacmoves over 16,000 cubic feet of air per minute, more than quadruple the pow-er of most competi-tors.

    Beware of com-panies using cheap equipment and ad-vertising cheap prices.... most are unlicensed or adver-tise that they are li-censed and are not!

    Avoid Scams by not falling for cheap get you in the door prices.

    When asked what sets you apart from your com-petitors Keith says Hon-est service is number one,equipment is number two. I know the impor-tance of being on time, working with a smile, and respecting peoples homes and their belong-ings. There are a lot of duct cleaners around but rest assured youll receive the same Qual-ity and Service we expect.American Power Vac is family owned and were here to help by offering a

    Why All the Household Dust?

    April and Keith Meadows help keep indoor air cleanwith their local business, American Power Vac.

    One of the best companies I have ever had working in my home. They were very

    professional and I was very satis ed with their workmanship and clean up. I would hire your company again in a heartbeat, and would gladly spread the word to family, friends and

    neighbors. Great company you have going.

  • This week, its Volkswagens 2014 Passat SEL Premium Sedan were testing, built by American craftsmen in Chattanooga, Tenn.

    Passat for 2014 comes with the expect-ed quantity of German engineering one expects in a Volkswagen, even one thats American built. Starting at just $20,845 with a 1.8 liter turbocharged engine and five-speed manual, Passats fuel economy is note-worthy with 24 city and 35 highway the EPA averages. The turbo 1.8 replaces the 2.5 five-cylinder engine, which delivered 21 and 28, respectively. The 1.8 turbo engine with a six-speed automatic powers most of the Passats for 2014, as customers are treated to 13 dis-tinct models at the showroom.

    Our testers bottom line sticker came in at $31,715 as just an $820 delivery fee upped base of $30,895. This no option situation comes, thanks to top line SEL Premiums standard features that include 18-inch alloy wheels, navigation with touch screen, Sirius/XM satellite, power sunroof, Fender Premium Audio, rear camera safety system, every power imaginable, fold-ing rear seat with center armrest and pass-through,

  • Halogen lights, leather power seats and much more. Overall, when you select the top line SEL models, youll get just about everything VW has to offer.

    The 1.8 turbo four produces 170 horses and 184 pounds of torque. It comes standard in the SEL with the Tiptronic six-speed automatic that de-livers low RPM numbers while cruising and very good EPA numbers at 24 city and one less than the manual 34 high-way.

    If you want even better fuel mileage, consider Volkswagens Turbo Direct Injection Diesel, 31 city/43 highway starting at $26,675. Or if you want more power, the 280 horse V6 Passat starting at $29,675.

    Passats exterior has solid good looks. The grilles large VW logo is still prominent, while the rear deck is sim-ple, graceful and overall nicely done.

    Inside, Passats cabin is highly re-garded with roominess. The gauges are well lit while its wood-trim greets driv-

    er and passenger. Firmer but not un-comfortable seating is appreciated and the expected tighter German steering wheel feedback is built into every Passat.

    Underneath, Passat adheres to its VW/Porsche/Audi family background of great handlers, offering first-rate be-havior in cornering and a cozy, tranquil turnpike experience. The independent suspension with McPherson struts up front and a four-link rear allows steadi-ness regardless of road in front of you.

    Important numbers include a wheel-base of 110.4 inches, 3,230-pound curb weight, 18.5-gallon regular grade fuel tank, 15.9 cubic feet of trunk space and a 5.4-inch ground clearance.

    Volkswagens Passat, regardless of model choice, is worthy of a Test Drive Best Buy nod and rates serious con-sideration from consumers of all ages.

    Likes: Roomy cabin, design, Audi-like build, handling, quiet.

    Dislikes: Powertrain warranty still 60,000 miles instead of the now cus-tomary 100,000.

    2014 Ford ExplorerThe 2014 Ford Explorer builds on its heritage as a full-size SUV leader with outstanding capability, conve-nience and comfort. Performance-oriented upgrades include a solid-mounted electric power-assisted steer-ing rack with improved feel, providing more respon-siveness to drivers both on-road and off-road, and larg-er brakes for shorter stopping distances and better per-formance when towing. Second-row heated seats, auto headlamps and adaptive cruise control are among the convenience features added or now more widely avail-able. Sunset and Dark Side are new exterior color choices for the 2014 model year. Key features include the latest-generation SYNC system with MyFord Touch featuring Wi-Fi capability, text-to-voice, HD Radio with iTunes Tagging and voice-activated navigation; integrated USB ports for accessing music; choice of 3.5-liter Ti-VCT V6 engine or 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder with fuel economy of up to 28 miles per gallon on the highwa; Safety Canopy system; SOS Post-Crash Alert System; Curve Control and Hill Start Assist for more confidence on uphill grades. The manufacturers suggested retail price starts at $29,600 plus $895 for destination and delivery.
