BATTING CLINIC UPDATE

REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED-EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

Due to an overwhelming response to the clinic, we must close registration but are starting a WAIT LIST.   If you are registered and cannot attend please notify us by email ASAP so we can add someone from the time stamped wait list.  

Thanks to everyone for responding so quickly to the survey regarding the batting clinic.  As of this post all 221 registered members/players of WECSSO have received the survey or been contacted in person if no email existed.

To date 66 members have signed up to attend the batting clinic.  The breakdown is as follows:  Red – 20 players          Blue – 23 players          Green – 23 players

The batting instructors and pitchers for the clinic are our WECSSO players.  The general idea is to have different batting stations and batting practice.  This allows our pitchers to get some pre-season warmup as well.  

Bats and balls will be provided but feel free to bring your own bat if you choose.  Bring your glove to assist with fielding balls.

We are encouraging members to bring their cell phones for personal batting videos.  Error detection, tips and corrections will improve batting success.  

WECSSO is covering the cost of the clinic.  

Any questions contact :  Gord Hillman- inbiz@protonmail.com  Aldo Bertucci – aldobertucci@gmail.com or Patti Mouland- pattimouland@gmail.com

Obituary of Carl James Isaac

Carl James Isaac

Nov 4, 1935- Aug 13, 2023

Carl was born in Forest ON in 1935, son of Harvey & Gertrude Isaac of Forest ON,.  He leaves behind his wife of 67 years, Patricia Isaac, (nee Griffin) along with daughter’s Kim Teeple (Carl) Susan Frankfurth (Dale) & Carla Reaume, along with 9 grandchildren, Amy, Isaac, Kristen, Jennifer, Nicole, Cody, Jeff, Kayla & Kristy and 16 great grandchildren. Others in his life, include step-father George Haley, sister Erma Petroski (deceased), brothers Jerry & Bob Haley.
Many will remember Carl as the owner of the Isaac Foodtown in Comber, for 30 + years, having learned the business in his early days in Sarnia. Those close to him will reflect on his unwavering love and commitment to Pat during her health
struggles over the years. Family will remember his generosity, humility and availability. He served as a volunteer firefighter in the village of Comber. For many years, he and the family enjoyed the Hillsborough cottage on Lake Huron he built as a young man.
Carl’s life had a significant transformation as a young husband and father in his late 20’s, as he came to faith in Christ and started to grow in this new journey. He served faithfully in various churches over the years and never wavered in his
faith. That relationship shaped him into the generous, loving, giving person he was, which was most evident in his care for Pat. His impact and life will be missed by many.
