No Comments on Last of the coal-fired generators bites the dust–literally

The last of Ontario’s coal-fired power generation stations is no more. A demolition crew successfully imploded the Lambton Generating Station near Courtright, south of Sarnia early Sunday morning. Traffic on was halted around the site which sits on the shores of the St. Clair River while the operation was underway. Ship traffic on the river was also paused.

Lambton Generating Station was first fired up in 1969 during a period of rapid expansion by Ontario Hydro into thermal generation. State of the art in its day, the plant boasted the installation of “scrubbers” aimed at reducing emissions. Lambton was opened before the coal fired plant at Nanticoke and the oil-fired Lennox plant near Kingston came on stream.

“The three stacks and the boilers came down at 7:42 a.m.,” said Neal Kelly, an Ontario Power Generation spokesperson. “It went as planned,” he said. “We had the weather conditions that we needed.” In a tweet OPG said “Lambton GS was safely imploded today. It was part of OPG’s coal closure, which remains one of the world’s single largest climate change actions. We now look to decarbonize the future with our clean hydro, a refurbished Darlington Nuclear and our planned Small Modular Reactors.”

Gran’s mohican raises thousands for Melton church refurb

No Comments on Gran’s mohican raises thousands for Melton church refurb

Frances Levett (left) presents a fundraising cheque to Father Tom McGovern for St John’s Catholic Church in Melton, with fellow church members Ann Kirby and Sheila Sulley EMN-220213-181203001

Frances Levett hoped to raise a few hundred pounds from sponsors for the work at St John’s by wearing the radical haircut in church and around town but she has been amazed with the response.

She handed over a cheque to the parish priest Father Tom McGovern at the Thorpe End church to help pay for a £45,000 project, which has included the repainting of the sanctuary, using elements and motifs from the original Victorian design, which had been painted over in subsequent redecoration jobs.

Frances, who is chair of the Friends of St John’s, told the Melton Times: “I would like to thank everyone who has sponsored me.

The striking mohican sported by Frances Levett, which has raised £5,700 for St John’s Catholic Church in Melton EMN-220213-181153001

“When we started fundraising I said I would have a mohican done if the total reached £1,000.

“People were very generous and when I had the hairstyle done people seemed to like it.”

St John’s, which was built in 1842, was designed by a renowned architect, AWN Pugin, and it originally had intricate colourful artwork.

Unsympathetic alterations have spoiled the integrity of the building with the designs being painted over.

St John’s Catholic Church in Melton EMN-220213-181214001

That look has now been restored with elements of that early design using clay-based paints.

Go to www.justgiving.com/campaign/fosjmm to pledge money for the refurb of St John’s. Other fundraising events are also planned.

No Comments on Scout group from Romsey to go camping for the first time in two years thanks to generous donation

SCOUTS from Romsey are looking forward to their first campaign trip in two years thanks to a generous donation from a kind-hearted Romsey group.

Romsey and Waterside Lions Club donated £300 to 10th Romsey Scout Group, which meets in Braishfield Road.

The money will allow some of the children to take their first camping trip following Covid restrictions

President of the Romsey and Waterside Lions Club Andrew Trowbridge said they were proud to help.

He said: “This will hopefully help fund their activities at the planned summer camp being held in Somerset.

“We wish the scouts well.”

At the camp, the youngsters will be able to take part in activities such as archery, climbing, zipwires and a trip to the Fleet Air Arm Museum.

For many, this will be the first summer camp that they’ve been able to attend as a result of previous Covid guidelines.

Romsey and Waterside Lions form part of Lions Club International, the world’s largest international voluntary service organisation, with 46,000 club worldwide.

The local voluntary group aims to improve the lives of those less fortunate within the community, through practical and financial support. Throughout the year the club can be seen running fundraising events and activities such as their monthly bookstall.

To get involved or find out more contact secretary@romseylions.co.uk or call 03449632463.
