In this episode recorded on location at Niagara Golf and Country Club, Douger and I discuss the aftermath of the 150th Open Championship. Congratulations to Australia's Cameron Smith. An excellent Champion Golfer of the Year and a Major victory that you could feel that was coming. Did Rory McIlroy play to lose? Hey, what was with the disrespect shown to Smith by golf media? Speaking of which, what about the garbage that a European news agency tried to start involving Mark and Brenda Calcavecchia? Also, the LPGA. The women of the LPGA played their team event the DOW Great Lakes Classic. Kupcho and Salas win. It's another major week as the LPGA, LET et al play the Amundi Evian Championship in France. The Southern Ontario Open. We provided commentary for GolfZoogle during a live-stream on YouTube. The Great Lakes Tour's flagship event played in Port Dover, Ontario (Port Dover Golf Club) was entertaining and you couldn't have asked for a better finish. A 3-man playoff and an eagle to beat birdies on the first playoff hole (won by Michael Blair). Many of those played have some sort of status on PGA TOUR Canada.

As the seasons changed in 1814, the British attempted to stop the Americans from outfitting frigates on Lake Ontario, while the Americans launched another offensive in the Niagara Peninsula.

With travel and proximity in mind, we are halfway between Detroit and Toronto: we are near many day and weekend trip destinations: including beach towns along Lake Huron/Erie (i.e. Grand Bend, Port Stanley and Port Dover to name a few!), State of Michigan including Detroit & Port Huron, Toronto/GTA (other cities along the golden horseshoe including Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, and Peel/York Region) and beyond.Winter/ Summer: We do have a mixed climate, but you'll never run out of options when it comes to things to do. We have a ski resort in the Winter, Boler Mountain and many parks and festivals in the summer to check out. The reality is, even if you stay local for a weekend, there are still things to do around the city.London Ontario is a great spot to raise a family, and it is the perfect size of a community where it is classified as a city, but at the same perspective classified as a well known vibrant centre where it feels like that small town community feel based on the many suburbs within the city. With the many amenities in the city, quality access to education including Western University and Fanshawe College, restaurants and activities in the area, if you think there is nothing to do here, go back and watch my other episodes of what makes London Ontario a GREAT place to live and the places that I would recommend you go check out!!

Written and researched by Steven Mooradian Koehler Beer and the Prohibition Era  Steven Mooradian  Hello! Welcome to this episode of the Hurstories, a history podcast presented by Mercyhurst students. My name is Steven Mooradian and I will be your host for this episode.    Any good Erieite will tell you, there’s a church on every street, and a bar on every corner.   Erie’s long history with beer extends to the first large waves of immigration, bringing their brewing practices with them, none more locally famous than the Koehler family.  Their persistence through 13 years of prohibition propelled them into local legend, and the Koheler name remains a staple in northwestern Pennsylvania.  Erie, Pennsylvania has been a Mecca for immigrants for over a century and a half. Groups of Italian, Polish, German, Irish, Russian, Greek, and other European immigrants have historically found a small slice of Erie to call home. Even more recently, large contingencies of Nepalese, Bhutanese, Syrian, Central African, and Latin American groups have found their sanctuary and safety in some of the same areas. Though Erie’s population has decreased significantly since the mid 20th century, these groups are almost single-handedly keeping those numbers steady. There is truly a connection between the success of immigrants and the success of Erie.  Erie has a small, urban center. It is centrally located between three major cities: Buffalo, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh. And it was a center of commerce and industry for a better part of the 19th and 20th centuries, perfect for establishing economic success in anything from paper to beer. When immigrants arrive they bring their interests and talents, making Erie one of the most diverse cities in America for well over a century.  Charles Koehler, a Dutch immigrant who arrived in Erie in the mid 1800’s, knew Erie held for him some of these opportunities. He worked for Frederick Dietz, who owned a brewery at 17th and Parade Street. Dietz died in 1858 and Charles took it over, though he left only a few years later in 1862 to begin a new brewery with his sons at 26th and Holland. Charles son Fred inherited the business, but it was his other son Jackson Koehler, who would take the family name and make it a brand.1   The first brewery built at the site of 21st and State Streets in Erie in 1855 was by George Frey and Peter Schaaf. Frey was himself an immigrant, from Germany, and is credited with introducing the lager style of beer to the Greater Erie-Buffalo region.2  Schaaf would go on to find a new partner several years later, a man by the name of Henry Kavelage, who in 1863 became the sole owner of the operation and named it Eagle Brewery.  Twenty years after, in 1883, Jackson Koehler purchased the brewery, calling it the Jackson-Eagle Koehler Brewery.  Erie in the 1880’s had multiple brewing operations, consisting of four lager plants, one ale, and one porter breweries. They all shared the market, but it didn’t take long for Jackson Koehler to surge to the top of the game. In 1890, Jackson commissioned Louis Lehle, a Chicago architect to design the new brewery.  On April 1, 1899, several of those other breweries, the Fred Koehler and Co. (Jackson’s brother), Cascade Brewery, National Brewery, and Eagle Brewery merged under the command of Koehler now going by the name Erie Brewing Company. The Koehler name became synonymous with beer in the Erie region.  The brewery ran with few flaws for years, until the bombshell hit.  Prohibition became the law of the land, cemented as the 18th amendment to the US Constitution in 1920.  Prohibition was particularly tricky in PA. Lots of working-class people, meant both strong adherence and strong resistance. Labor Unions were some of the fiercest opponents of the eighteenth amendment. However, other unions were avid proponents of prohibition, because labor leaders felt that with their workers boozed up, gave them a disadvantage on negotiations.  Gifford Pinchot, a successful conservationist running for governor during the lead up to prohibition ran under the pretense that he would strictly enforce the prohibition laws.  Unsurprisingly, he drew much of his support from groups like the Women’s Anti-Temperance Movement, which led the charge against prohibition, but also from several types of unions and farmers.  Pinchot won his election in 1923, just three years after the 18th amendment was adopted, and served as Governor of Pennsylvania until 1927.  He began cracking down on the prohibition laws, however, to his dismay, crime and usage increased while the enforcement of the law decreased dramatically by police departments. Whether it was a direct defiance of the governor, or simply lazy police work, is unclear, but needless to say, prohibition wasn’t going as planned for Governor Pinchot.  Despite his overall failure on prohibition, Pinchot won again in 1931, serving a nonconsecutive term until 1935. He also helped to establish the PA Liquor Control Board and hoped to deter alcohol use by making it quote, “as inconvenient and expensive as possible”.  Meanwhile, rum-running and bootlegging were becoming a massive industry along the Lake Erie border.  The proximity to Canada made it easy for smugglers to get across the international border in a hurry. Canada had no prohibition laws.8 Boats would speed across the lake, pick up cargo in places like Port Dover, Ontario and other lakefront towns, and come back to Erie or the Pennsylvania lakeshore. These trips were so frequent, it has been suggested there are hundreds of unopened bootlegged alcohol bottles at the bottom of Lake Erie. Much like the prohibition era on land, the policing of the waters was so ineffective, it was essentially non-existent.  Even today, restaurants and bars in Erie, like Rum-Runners Cove, Smugglers Wharf, and the former Bootleggers Bar and Grille pay homage to this history.   President Franklin Roosevelt signed a bill in March of 1933, legalizing the sale and consumption of wine and beer and by December of the same year, the 18th amendment had been repealed and the 21st amendment ratified, ending prohibition.  Prohibition forced the closure of breweries for Koehler and many others; however, Koehler was so popular, that in 1933, the year prohibition ended, he reopened the Erie Brewing Company resuming normal operations.   Prohibition was viewed as a complete failed experiment. The usage of alcohol was not eliminated and may very well have even been elevated. The implementation of the eighteenth amendment also brought forth several unintended consequences.   Many marginalized groups were targeted. Anti-alcohol meant anti-immigrant as Europeans like Germans, Polish, Irish, and Dutch were the primary brewers.  Catholics were also notable drinkers and the 1920’s saw a great resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan as well as other extreme sects of White Anglo Saxon Protestant vigilantism. Organized crime including the likes of Al Capone and other notable gangsters was also elevated, in this time period.   As for Koehler, the brewery operated normally until the 1970’s when the it was closed down in 1978.  The historic building sat empty for many years, and unfortunately for history, the complex was demolished in 2006.  However, in 2018, two brothers Bruce and Bryan Koehler, brought the name back.  They are unsure if they are directly related to Jackson Koehler, but they are sure of their connection to Erie.  They’re from Pittsburgh but their grandparents lived in Millcreek and remember passing the plant as kids, even remarking that Koehler is the only beer their family drank.  The brothers operate the new Koehler Brewing Company out of Grove City, PA, about an hour away from Erie. The Koehler brand is still one of the most recognizable in Northwestern Pennsylvania. Many families tell stories of drinking Koehler beer with their loved ones and Koehler memorabilia is highly sought after. Though the building does not exist anymore, the original Eagle Brewery sign survives and can be seen inside the BrewERIE at Union Station, which preserves some of Erie’s brewing heritage.   The survival of Koehler, bootlegging, and the prohibition era in Pennsylvania is just a snapshot of the Roaring 20’s, but it’s a legacy that the Erie region is true to, and in a lot of ways is proud of.  With its recent reemergence, generations of Erieites can kick their feet up, drink a Koehler, and tell stories, just as their fathers and grandfathers did.   Something has to keep those bars open!  We’ll see you next time on Hurstories, until then, I have been Steven, and thank you for listening.

In this week’s episode of Smart Sports Podcast, I have a local athlete that has somewhat flown under the radar. We’re talking about a dual-sport athlete at the collegiate level. Port Dover’s Jacob Erwin celebrated senior night with his Castleton University Spartans teammates last week, and is now set to take a run at top-ranked Norwich in the playoffs this weekend. But that’s not all. Before the hockey season began, Jacob helped the Spartans men’s golf team to a fourth place finish at the North Atlantic Conference championships, while finishing second overall himself. He was named to the conference’s All-Acedemic team and First-Team All-NAC. SHOUT OUTS The first shout out goes to our local special Olympians. Beginning Monday, Simcoe Special Olympics has four five-pin bowlers and one figure skater competing in Thunder Bay at the Special Olympics Canada Winter Games.

Not only that, Kyle Chambers has turned his love for his sport into a new passion in the form of a podcast KC's Sports Talk. Kyle has done so much, and he’s only 19-year-old, and has cerebral palsy. SHOUT OUTS First shout out goes to the Port Dover Pirates peewee rep team. This is the only rep team in Port Dover, and they are having a great run so far in the OMHA playdowns. With a 5-1 win at home Sunday, the Pirates sweep the Cayuga Stars to move on to the third round of the OMHA peewee DD playdowns. They will now take on the winner of the Plattsville and St. George series. Next shout out goes to the Delhi Travellers goalies, Raine Steadman and Luca DelRizzo. These two guys have had more rubber than probably any other goalie in junior hockey this winter. Despite the Travellers allowing 555 goals with only a handful of games left, these guys have done everything they could possibly do to help their team.

A little Americana for ya. Tia McGraff helps Barry and Matt get to the bottom of exactly what that means. Tia, chatting with the boys from Port Dover, ON, talks about how moving to Nashville not only furthered her craft as a songwriter but also helped her discover love and a writing partner all rolled into one. A myriad of topics are touched on, ranging from what inspires her to bringing her trusted dog on the road and the challenges that raises. Kurt Nielsen stops by for The Bassline. The passing of Aretha Franklin is discussed and Kurt outlines the accolades that have dotted a career that can only be described as prodigious and prolific.

Crazy Stories uses GPS’s to track ramen noodle thefts. All that and much more on Sessions. Lets get Transylvanian, pseudo-Irish with a dash of Scottish tossed in, garnished with some Nashvillian Americana in Port Dover. You’ll understand soon enough.

Also on the show; a few clips of white people acting questionably towards people of colour, what racism really is, the “n-word”, New Jersey morning radio hosts Dennis and Judi being suspended for comments about the N.J. Attorney General, their lame apology, a man driving drunk on a crowded beach in Port Dover, facial recognition software being used at malls and the NFL’s first-ever male cheerleaders.
