The Town reminds residents that during construction traffic disruptions will occur and some delays may be experienced. Please slow down, obey all traffic signage, and follow all posted detour routes.

The Rotary Club of Essex and Rotary Club of Windsor 1918 are back with another Fish Fry benefit to support an upcoming mission trip to Ghana. The event will feature a delicious perch dinner with all the trimmings, musical entertainment, silent auction, and a raffle.

Rotary members believe that they have a shared responsibility to take action to tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Clean water is essential to life; yet, millions lack access to this basic, fundamental element.

Proceeds from this event will support the drilling of water wells in Ghana, Africa where access to fresh, clean water is lacking in so many villages.

Friday, July 20, 4-8pm at Lakewood Park, 13451 Riverside Dr. E. at Manning Rd. For tickets please call 519-551-3747

The 5th annual Face of Woofa-Roo contest invites animal lovers to enter their pets for a chance to be declared the cutest of the year.

Now through July 6 pet owners can submit an original photo of their pet as part of this fun contest. All pets are welcome — cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, you name it!

Eligible entries received during the entry period are evaluated by a panel of judges, who select the 32 qualifying photos which best meet the judges’ criteria including originality, overall appeal and composition.

Pet lovers will then have the opportunity to vote for their favourites until one grand prize-winner is selected.

The voting period begins July 13 at noon with 32 qualifying pets displayed head-to-head. The public votes for their favourite in each pair. At the end of the first voting period 16 pets move to the next round and pair off beginning July 16. The third round starts with eight pets July 17 followed by the final four facing off July 18. The two remaining pets go head-to-head July 19. Voting closes July 20 at 3 p.m.

The pet with the most votes in the final round is crowned the winner at 11:00 a.m. on July 21 at the Woofa-Roo Pet Fest at The Libro Centre, 3295 Meloche Road, Amherstburg.

“Pet owners throughout Windsor and Essex County love the Face of Woofa-Roo contest,” says Beverly Becker, director of local marketing for the Windsor Star. “We get hundreds of pet photos and thousands of pet lovers voting for their favourite every year. Not only is the winner the face of Woofa-Roo for the festival’s 2019 marketing campaign, they get full bragging rights.”
