Canton Township officials
are taking a strong stand against
domestic violence in their community.
Members of the board of
trustees are expected to
approve the amendment of an
ordinance that would assign
prosecution of misdemeanor
domestic violence complaints to
the local prosecutor, Greg
Demopolous. The cases would
be adjudicated in the 35th
District Court which serves
Canton,
Northville
and
Plymouth.
Currently, the cases are handled by the office of Wayne
County Prosecutor Kym Worthy
who is not in favor of the move
by township officials.
Worthy said last week that
she received no notification of
the plan, based, according to
Canton Township Public Safety
Director Todd Mutchler, on the
inaction on complaints submitted to Worthy's office. Mutchler

are getting into when they take over
these DV (domestic violence) cases.
told the board members at a
meeting last month that about 40
such requests for warrants
received no response and no
action was forthcoming from the
prosecutor. Mutchler said the
move is an effort to ensure that
domestic violence cases are
prosecuted as quickly as possible.
Worthy said that she received
an email from township officials, but has not received a list
of any cases or warrant requests.
She said she is unable to determine the status of the cases
without more information and
that her office was not notified
of any missing warrant requests
from Canton.
Worthy said she felt the reas-
signment of these cases was a
public complaint about the efficiency of her office before ever
notifying her of the problem.
She said the township action
was unprofessional and that she
should have been spoken to or
notified of the situation before
any such public criticism.
She also cautioned the township officials regarding the intricacy of these cases.
“They have no idea what they
are getting into when they take
over these DV (domestic violence) cases,” she said. “These
are very delicate cases that a
prosecutor should not be handling unless they are specially
trained to do them.”
Worthy's office currently han-
dles about 6,000 to 8,000 domestic violence cases from throughout the county each year. Worthy
agreed it was a heavy workload
and that more attorneys were
needed in her office.
“I have nothing but the
utmost respect for Kym Worthy
and the job she is doing as
Wayne County prosecutor,”
Mutchler said, adding his
department will continue to
work cooperatively with the
prosecutor's office.”We've just
got to take care of the people's
needs in Canton,” he added.
Domestic violence cases punishable by 93 days in jail and
$500 fines which are misdemeanors will be handled by
Demopoulous if the amendment
is approved. Costs for those services are estimated at about $120
an hour for warrant reviews and
about $750 for a day-long jury
trial.
Felony cases will be referred
to Worthy's office.
Rolling along
70-year-old alleys
reopened by family
A drive down Huron River Drive in
Romulus was a trip back in time for
Stephanie Wagel and her mother, Sylvia
Parecki, during the past decade or so.
The pair would travel past Romulus
Lanes and remember when Parecki's
father first built the lanes as an addition to
his neighborhood bar more than 70 years
ago. Walter Parecki originally owned a
small store in Romulus which he sold to
buy the bar. In 1945, he built the bowling
alley. Upon his death in 1956, his wife,
Helen and son, Eugene Parecki continued
operating the business. When Helen died
in 1980, Eugene and his wife, Sylvia, kept
the bowling alley open. Helen died in 1980
and Sylvia and her husband continued
operating the business until 2001 when
they reluctantly sold the flourishing family
business.
During the past decade or so, however,
driving past the building became more
and more troubling for both Wagel and her
mother as they witnessed the deterioration of the building and saw the effects of
time erode the façade, until, eventually,
the business was shuttered.
In May, the business came back to the
family and they made the decision to take
on the costly and extensive repairs necessary to reopen Romulus Lanes. Parecki,
now 77, and Wagel, 52, along with the rest
of the family are operating the historic
alley, making repairs as they go along.
Working at restoring
Romulus Lanes is a family affair for Sylvia Parecki,
left whose father built the
alleys, her son-in-law and
daughter Rob and
Stephanie Wagel and her
grandchildren, Amanda
and Matthew Wagel. At
right is a photo of Walter
and Helen Parecki, original owners.
“My grandfather bought the bar in 1943
and built the bowling alley as an addition
in 1945,” Wagel said. “We recently came
across some photos of the first leagues
who bowled here.” She said there are
many photos of bowlers from decades ago
that are being processed which will soon
be hung in the alley.
The renovations and clean up haven't
been easy, Wagel admitted. No matter how
simple a task seems, it always leads to
something far more complicated and
expensive.
“We thought, hey, we can just replace
these few floor tiles, only to find out there
were problems with the sub-floor,” she
said. The family has painted and cleaned,
repaired the awning and roof along with
the outside of the building and made plans
for more renovations as time allows.
“League bowling just began, and it's difficult to get these things done when they

Restaurant Week promoted on new show
Frank Agostini of E.G. Nick's
in Plymouth was one of the first
guests on Live in the D, an all
new morning program on WDIV
hosted by Northville resident
Chuck Gaidica and new co-host
Tati Amare.
Agostini, with his pumpkin
mousse, bourbon salmon and
grilled meat loaf among other
menu items, was on the new
show to promote the third annual Restaurant Week in downtown Plymouth. During the
nine-day event, which continues
through Saturday, local participating restaurants will feature
three-course lunches and dinners priced at $15, $25 or $35 per
person.
He challenged Amare to slice

meat loaf while Gaidica worked
on adding port wine to the hot,
buttery reduction which was
then poured over the entree.
Agostini gave both hosts an A for
their culinary efforts. Amare, a
former television host and producer from New York where her
award-winning local lifestyle,
food and travel programs were
aired, confessed to Agostini that
she may have cheated a bit on
the mushroom slicing as she
grew up in a restaurant.
The new morning show
debuted at 10 a.m. Monday and
has been gaining viewers all
week.
“The show is a relentlessly
positive look at Detroit and really all of southeast Michigan,”
Gaidica said. “Being part of Live

happy opportunity for me to
connect with the people of
Detroit in a new way and still
have time to serve our community.”

Lions Club awards
annual scholarships
For the 17th year, the Plymouth Lions
Club awarded four scholarships to students from the Plymouth Canton
Community Schools at a meeting this summer.
The Plymouth Lions Club scholarship
program is a four-year award of $2,000
each year. Students receive the application for ongoing scholarships from their
respective district high schools and their
applications are sent to the Lions Club. A
committee of members then chooses the
recipient for that year using criteria
including financial status, academic
achievement and community service.
At the June Plymouth Lions Club scholarship meeting, Kyle Robertson, a graduate of Plymouth High School, who is
attending the University of Michigan
majoring in Environmental Engineering,
was named the awardee for this year.
Continuing scholarships of $2,000 yearly were awarded to: 2012 awardee John
Chadwick, a Salem High School graduate
who is attending Grand Valley State
University majoring in Nursing; 2013
awardee Ellen Grimes, a Canton High
School graduate who is attending
Michigan State University majoring in
Communications and the 2014 awardee
Abby Wampler, a Canton High School
graduate who is attending Michigan State
University majoring in Industrial
Engineering
The Plymouth Lions Club was chartered by Lions Club international in 1947
and the first meeting took place in
January of 1948.
The club is dedicated to serving the
Plymouth communities but also supports
many organizations outside the local area.
The club raises funds throughout the year
dedicating 100 percent of all funds collected to the organizations it supports.
Among the many projects and organizations that receive support are: Penrickton
Center for Blind Children, Leader Dog,
Michigan Eye Bank, Beaumont Silent

Uniform effort
Applebee’s helps cheerleaders
collect funds for new outfits
The John Glenn High School cheerleaders are responsible for promoting
team spirit through their infectious chants
and up-beat attitude, but their attire is no
laughing matter.
In fact, their uniforms barely pass
muster.
“They're worn, discolored, and falling
apart at the seams,” said John Glenn High
School Cheer Coach Veronica Chambers.
“The girls are piecing together uniforms
that are up to15 years old.”
Enter TEAM Schostak Family
Restaurants (TSFR).
The Michigan-based family-owned
restaurant group - with an expansive portfolio of casual, quick service and family
dining restaurants throughout the state - is
partnering with former Detroit Lions
offensive lineman Scott Conover and NFL
alumni to host a Dine to Donate to raise
money for the cheerleaders from 11 a.m.
until 6 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 4, at Westland
Applebee's restaurant located at 36475
Warren Road.
During the event, 15 percent of all
guests' food sales will be donated to the
John Glenn High School cheerleaders.
The funds collected will assist in the purchase of new uniforms for all 48 team
members who make up the varsity, junior
varsity and freshman squads.
“It was a no-brainer because cheerleaders are often overlooked but make a
sizeable contribution to the overall high
school football experience,” said Conover,
who played for Lions from 1991-1996 and
currently serves as the secretary of the
Detroit Chapter of the NFL Alumni
Association.
Several NFL alumni, including former
Detroit Lions Lomas Brown and Ron
Rice, will join Conover in meeting and
interacting with guests.

Annual Halloween ‘parade’ is planned in Canton
Little pirates, princesses,
monsters and mermaids are
invited to Canton Leisure
Services' 15th annual Trick or
Treat Parade from 4-7 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 30. This family-oriented tradition will take place at
the Summit on the Park, located
at 46000 Summit Parkway, in
Canton.
Children ages 10 and younger
are encouraged to attend in costume and follow the spooktacular
trail from room to room, each
filled with special surprises and
little goodies. Parade partici-
pants will enjoy seeing the
Summit all decked out for ghoulish fun and ghastly festivities.
Younger trick-or-treaters will
enjoy the trail that passes a variety of themed-stations that allows
them to visit with family-friendly
characters, including: Captain
America, the cast from Inside
Out, characters from the Wizard
of Oz, Frozen's Anna and Elsa
and more. For those who dare, a
spooky Haunted House will be
available in the Summit gymnasium that is scarier than ever.
Organizers said this interactive
experience may be too intense
for small children.
Advance tickets are now on
sale at $5 for Summit members
and $6 for Canton residents and
$4 for members of Bartlett's Kids
Club. From Oct. 15-29, non-resident tickets will be available for

and this year is no exception. It's
a great family event that is perfect for the little ones,” said
Laura Mortier, recreation specialist for Canton Leisure
Services. “This year our 'spookier

kids will feature a special
Haunted House theme that we're

Library awards readers
Teens and youngsters who participated
in the Summer Reading Program at the
Romulus Library read for a combined 646
hours this summer.
A total of 260 readers participated in
the program this year, including 185 children, 33 teens and 42 adults, according to
Library Director Patty Braden. In addition, she said, the youngsters completed
170 activities.
"Summer Reading is important to the
learning development of children/teens
because it keeps them engaged in reading
while school is not in session. Summer
Reading Programs are a significant factor
in improving reading skills and prevent
the loss of learning during the summer
months," Braden said.
According to schoollibraryjournal.com,
"…children who read at least six books
during the summer maintained or
improved their reading skills, while children who didn't read any saw their skills
slip by as much as an entire grade level".
Studies show that children who participate in Summer Reading Programs also
have higher test scores than those who do
not participate, she added.
Performers at the library this summer
included: Storyteller Rosie Chapman;
Doug Scheer performed his "Superhero
Stunt Show; A2 Magic; Joel Tacey and his
Extreme Duct Tape Workshop; Bill and
Jessi from Warrior 3 Comics and Games;
Reptile, Inc., and Alex Thomas and his
Stop-Motion Animation program.
Braden said that Skatin' Station and the
Chapatwala family (owners of several
local McDonald's) provided bookmarks
that allowed young readers a free Happy
Meal and a free skate. Emagine Movie
Theater, the Henry Ford, Warrior 3
Comics and Games, Wings Financial,
Midway Sports and Entertainment, and
Sportway each donated prizes for the
summer reading finales, Braden added.
Donations from the Romulus Rotary
Club and the Friends of the Library
helped fund the purchase of giveaways
and bring in performers.
Braden said she also wanted to thank
the Romulus Police and Fire departments, the many volunteers who helped
make the Summer Reading Kickoff
Carnival a success, and the Romulus
Athletic Center for hosting the finale party.

are bowling” Wagel said, “but when they
break next summer we plan to do the
bathrooms and other repairs.”
She said the community is responding
to their efforts and the reopening has been
welcomed by many loyal bowlers.
Wagel grew up in Romulus and was a
teacher in the Romulus schools for 10
years before making the decision to devote
herself full-time to restoring the bowling
alley and bar. She and her family moved to
Ypsilanti a few years ago to have more
room to raise their few head of cattle and
some chickens. Her mother still has a
Romulus address while her father died in
2002, a year after the bowling alley was
sold.
Wagel said the liquor license at the bar
remains in court, because of the circumstances surrounding the return of the business, but they hope to have that situation
in hand very soon.
“The bar is going back to my grandfather's name, it will be Walt's Bar,” she said.
“I have to say, the city has been wonder-
ful to us, helping us get our permits and
get situated,” she said.
In addition to her mother, Wagel's son,
Matthew, is also working at the establishment, acting as chief engineer, while her
two daughters remain in college, one pursuing a medical degree and the other
studying nursing, she said.
“My husband, Rob, is a nurse at St. Joe's
and he talks to so many people there who
have stories about bowling here or being
here,” she said. “It really is a part of the
history of the city.”
“We always say, the building may
belong to us, but it really is the community's bowling alley,” she added.
“We've all made the decision, as a family, to stay here and stick it out,” she said.
“We're going to make it work. After all,”
she said with a smile, “this is the oldest
bowling alley in Romulus.”

BELLEVILLE - NORTHVILLE
Maybury Farm Corn Maze opens for season
This year, the anticipated Maybury
Farm Corn Maze which opened last week,
is offering a real challenge to visitors.
Northville Community Foundation
Director Jessica Striegle said that this
year, the maze is 10-acres of “thick, lush
corn that is very tall.”
She said that a bell sounds to let visitors know the hayride to the corn maze
will begin. They are dropped off at the
entrance to the maze and then are on their
own to weave their way through the tricky
pathways of head-high corn plants. “The
challenge,” Striegle said, “is finding all
eight of the wooden animals hidden
throughout the maze as you are trying to
find your way through.
“If you complete the maze and find the
location of the animals, you can enter to
win four tickets to Disney On Ice or the
Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey
Circus,” she said
When visitors complete the maze,
another hayride takes them back to the
farm where cider, donuts and snacks are
available.
Striegle said that the bigger challenge
comes to those intrepid visitors who
attempt to solve the maze in the dark,
when it gets just a little spooky. The
Maybury Farm Corn Maze is open until 10
Friday and Saturday nights for those who
are brave enough to find their way
through with just the stars to light their
way, Striegle said.
The maze is open from 6-10 p.m.
Fridays, from noon until 10 p.m. Saturdays
and from noon until 7 p.m. on Sundays
through Nov. 1. The last wagon leaves for
the maze one hour prior to close. Group
tours and bonfires for 15 or more are
available. To reserve a date, call (248)3740200. Cost to visit the corn maze is $7 per
person and includes the hayride and
admission to Maybury Farm. As always,
children 2 and under are free. All proceeds from the maze are used to pay for
the winter feed bills for the farm animals.
Maybury Farm, operated by the
Northville Community Foundation, a

Family health clinic moves to new building
”
Western Wayne Family Health
Centers, open since 2006 moved
to a larger center in Inkster last
month.
The health center was formerly housed in less than 10,000
square feet where primary medical care for all ages, OB/GYN,
general dentistry and integrated
behavioral health were provided.
Space at the new center, located
just a few hundred feet down the
street from original location, has
been tripled to 29,000 square
feet. The new facility, located at
2700 Hamlin Blvd. in Inkster, has
39 examination rooms, up from
the former 12, and six dental
operatories, up from two at the
previous location.
More adults and children in
the community can access services and wait time at the center is
reduced, as each medical
provider has three examination
rooms, rather than sharing just a
few, a spokesperson noted.
Behavioral health staff has dedicated office space for the first
time, offering more timely
response and more privacy, she
added.
“We have recognized for a
long time that we needed to
expand both our physical space
and bring on more providers to
meet the health and wellness
needs of families in the Inkster
area,” said Linda Atkins, CEO.
“That was impossible in our old

hired more dentists as we finally
have space for them to work and
started collaboration with
Garden City Hospital to bring in
more OB/GYN doctors and a
nurse midwife so that we can
offer more prenatal care than we
could before.” The center will
also offer more internal medicine and pediatric care as there
are more rooms to use, she said.

years. This month, the show will
include the shadow-cast experience of the Michigan Rocky
Horror Preservation Society on
Oct. 3, 10, 27 and 24 with a very
special show on Devil's Night,
Oct. 30.
“The Rocky Horror Picture
Show Experience is something
we pride ourselves on offering to
our audience,” said co-executive
producer Faith Duede. “The
movie is full of great songs and
great dialogue, but to truly
appreciate it, you really have to
be a part of the entire experience. We are very fortunate to
be able to provide that with a
full shadow cast performing
along with the movie, and the
use of the props you all remember, like throwing toast, cards,
toilet paper, and using squirt
guns. We also have pre-film
videos and a pre-show dance
party, it's an amazing atmosphere!”
The Rocky Horror Picture
Show is a cult classic and is the
longest continuously running
film in cinematic history since
first being released in the mid1970s. Phoenix Theatres and
the Michigan Rocky Horror
Preservation Society are excited
to have been able to continue a
40-year tradition by presenting
the true Rocky Horror
Experience year-round at the
State Wayne, explained Cory
Jacobson, owner of Phoenix
Theatres.
“Rocky Horror and the enthusiastic shadow cast truly make
this show the most unique, fun
and memorable night you can
spend at the movies,” Jacobson
added. “We had a crazy idea to
try to recapture this classic
movie-going experience over
two years ago. More than 7,000
patrons have descended on
Wayne for twice-monthly special
showings from throughout
Michigan and as far away as
Chicago to relive a film from
their youth or discover it for the
very first time.
“The Michigan Shadow Cast
and crew have truly developed
into one of the finest and most
professionally staged shows
around the world, and is just
great fun to be an audience participant,” Jacobson said. “The
idea that film has been showing
in cinemas continuously for 40
years and is sold out for every
performance at State-Wayne has
been simply amazing.”
The classic theatre was built
in 1946 and after serving millions of mover-goers in Wayne
County, went through a digital
overhaul late in 2012 and was
purchased by Phoenix Theatres
in 2014. The theater is located at
35310 West Michigan Ave. For

trician has also been added to
the medical staff and other partnerships with area graduate
medical education programs will
bring on more adult medicine
providers in the near future.
“Our goal is to offer high-quality care with little to no wait for
an appointment…people need
access to appointments that fit
their schedule and their
needs…we want to see them as
soon as we can, which is possible
in our new Inkster center.”
Other services will be offered
at the new facility in the months
to come including a pharmacy,
tele-psychiatry with Wayne State
University School of Medicine
faculty, a community room and a
teaching kitchen. The National
