Lake Orion Truck Accessories You are always welcome at GLE!
celebrates 11 years of service
For 11 years, Lake Orion Truck Ac-
cessories has been supplying custom ac-
cessories for your car, truck, van or SUV.
According to owner Ron Hibdon,
Lake Orion Truck Accessories is a full
aftermarket shop.
“The list is huge, but our main fea-
tures are truck caps, covers, trailer
hitches, fifth wheel hitches and goose-
necks,” Hibdon says. “We’ve got it all.
There’s not much we don’t do.”
“We also sell trailers and do full repairs
on them – parts and services,” he adds.
No matter what type of vehicle you
drive, Hibdon says they will work on it.
“We’re not prejudice when it comes
to working on a vehicle,” he jokes.
Lake Orion Truck Accessories also
carries a full line of diesel performance
and vehicle performance products, as
well as being a propane filling station.
While Lake Orion Truck Accessories
has been operating at its location for 11
years, Hibdon has been in the business
since 1983, and he and his staff bring a
lot of experience and care to your auto-
mobile.

Builders Custom Flooring offers

Quality service, personalized
attention to customers
With more than 22 years in the industry,
Builders Custom Flooring has become one
the most trusted flooring specialists.
Dan and Debbie Burgess take pride in
being a part of Lake Orion’s downtown
district and bringing quality custom
flooring to the community.
BCF specializes in creative flooring
concepts with distinctive product lines.
They have built their reputation on
custom hardwood installations, “dustless”
sanding techniques and exclusive finishes,
imported from Italy.
In today’s economy it’s important for
customers to add value to their homes.
By working with BCF, homeowners
can be assured that they’re getting the
highest value in flooring at the best price.
The Burgesses work to ensure that they
can compete with even the large “big, box
stores”, offering unique custom
craftsmanship and often lower prices per
square foot.
Oxford Overhead Door
A Name You Can Trust
Oxford Overhead Door Co
has been in business for over 42
years. We have quality service
technicians, quality products and
many years and generations of
satisfied customers.
For a fall tune-up, the
garage door experts recommend
that you put a light bead of oil on
the torsion springs about 3 inches
from the ends. Stay away from
the cones (the silver ends).
Lightly lubricate the rollers and add a drop of oil to the hinges.
It is not advisable to change the cables, bottom brackets or torsion springs
as there is much torque on these parts and many consumers have been hurt due to
inexperience in working with these parts.
Visit out Common Problems and Solutions page on-line. If you do not find
the answer to your problem, please call or send us an email.
We look forward to servicing your needs:

The company’s attention to detail has
given them a reputation for beautiful floors
that the Burgesses themselves will continue
to care for in years to come. BCF’s installers
are not just workers, but craftsmen who
take pride in their custom work.
Word is continuing to spread about
BCF’s hassle-free installation process, and
people are continually stopping the
Burgesses to compliment them on how
much they love their custom floors.
“Our business strives to provide
customers with superior quality, cost
competitiveness and unsurpassed service,”
said Debbie. “Each job reflects a creative
flooring concept with distinctive product
lines.”

The Mathnasium Method
Our approach is to use sophisticated
techniques to determine – with great
accuracy – what a student knows and
does not know.
Next, we tailor-make a personalized
and prescriptive learning program.
Each student follows the program with
the help of specially trained Mathnasium
math tutors who provide instruction —
and lots of warm encouragement.
For proof of progress, we rely on the
student’s report card, independent tests,
and parent testimony, to measure the
speed and magnitude of improvement in
math skills, numerical thinking, and
attitude.
EVALUATE
Comprehensive Written and Oral
Evaluation. Mathnasium students are
given a two-part diagnostic test. The first
is a written test designed to assess the
student’s weakness with respect to grade-
level material. The second part is a series
of oral questions, designed to assess the
depth of the student’s understanding of
key math concepts and skills.

Child. We use the results of our
assessment to develop a learning plan and
provide curriculum materials which cater
to the unique needs of the student. The
student is guided by a Mathnasium math
tutor when the student visits after school.
The curriculum focuses on primarily
written materials and mental math, and
includes manipulatives when appropriate,
and other teaching tools. Learning new
concepts is balanced with practicing those
that have already been learned. Kids
usually “work-out” once or twice a week
for about an hour.
VALIDATE
Demonstrate – and measure – results.
We believe your child’s progress (and
improved attitude) will be obvious to you,
the parent.
But we rely on third party proofs of
progress: Report cards and standardized
assessments, provided by your child’s
school.

Fitness Matters: Ask the Fitness Gal Expert
answers to your health and wellness questions
By Christine Wierenga
Question: With the weather getting
colder (in certain areas) and flu season almost
upon us, can you provide a little refresher on
working out when you’re sick?
Answer: Everyone seems to have a
different opinion on this, but here’s the scoop.
You often hear people say that working out is
fine if it’s just a head cold—stuffy nose,
coughing, and other stuff that you don’t like,
but can deal with. This is generally true, but if
you have a fever, body aches, or other more
serious symptoms, you should leave the
exercising to the rest of us. This philosophy
is actually pretty sound, but consider these
issues as well. When I’m working out, I don’t
really want people that are sneezing and
coughing around me—and I would guess you
don’t either. Plus, I like to workout with
intensity, and I put a premium on the quality
of my exercise. Therefore, I would rather rest
up for a day or two, even if I just have a head
cold. Then, when I get back to exercising, I
can pick-up right where I left off. Ultimately,
the decision is in your hands, so do what’s
best for you!
Question: Can you tell me the main
difference between whole grains and refined
grains? What are we really talking about here?
Answer: The main difference between
whole grains and refined grains is the way in

You can afford a new

kitchen before Christmas
Now is a fantastic time to remodel your
kitchen or bathroom.
“Our cabinet manufacturers,
countertop fabricators, and laborers, have
all reduced their pricing,” said Jonny
Brett, Oxford Kitchen & Bath owner.
“Which allows us to offer our most com-
petitive prices ever to our customers.”
According to Bree, “An up-to-date re-
modeled kitchen has a great impact on
the entire house.
No other room in the house gets the
attention that a kitchen does.
And, it is a great way to increase the
chances of selling your house.
Just replacing your cabinets and
countertops, while keeping the same lay-
out, can be all that is needed to create
that new kitchen.
Even if your budget only allows for
new countertops, it can dramatically
change the overall look of your kitchen.
With endless color choices & styles in
cabinetry & countertops, there is sure to
be a match that will fit your taste.”
Whether you need a full-service re-
modeling company or you want to install
your own cabinets, give Oxford Kitchen
& Bath a call to set an appointment for
free estimates.
They will help you plan for your new
kitchen and make sure it stays within bud-
get.
“We have been selling cabinets & in-
stalling custom kitchens for 15 years now
and we have plenty of local customers
that you can call to inquire about our in-
tegrity and abilities,” Brett said. “Give us
a call before pricing goes back up. You
could have a new kitchen before Christ-
mas. Don’t make the common mistake
that the bigger stores will save you
money. More often than not, it is the other
way around.”
Oxford Kitchen & Bath is located at
170 North Washington Street, Oxford.

The best keeps getting better!

It’s not very hard to figure out why our
residents are smiling here at Independence
Village of Waterstone. Let’s see…if you had
great meals prepared for you, everyday and
dined with all of your friends in an elegant
dining room, your housekeeping and linen
service taken care and a
full calendar of fun and
exciting activities
planned for you, all this,
while surrounded by
people that truly care for
you; you would be
smiling too.
That’s just what our
residents at
Independence Village
have come to expect and enjoy each day. It
is our goal and mission to provide the best
customer service in the industry and make
each and every resident feel special,
surrounded by ‘family’ and truly at home.
Every member of our staff realizes that it
is not an easy transition for our residents
to move from a home that they may have
lived in for years and years and often times
raised their families. I have witnessed this
initial angst so many times in my tenure in
this industry and the outcome is the same
every time; they are so happy and they
never regret making it. (Actually, many of
our residents wished they had moved
sooner!)
We are so excited and proud to
announce the newest member of our
Independence Village of Waterstone family,
Thomas Guitar, our new General Manager.
Thomas was previously employed with a
community in the Shelby Township area
and has brought with
him, many great and
exciting ideas to our
community; some of
which have already
been implemented.
Thomas shares our
mission that customer
service is our number
one goal, and in his
short time with us, it is
very evident that he committed to that goal.
He knows most every resident by name and
we often see him giving them a warm hug
or a friendly hello and our residents have
already embraced Thomas as part of their
‘family’ now too.
Stop by and see for yourself why
Independence Village of Waterstone is
such a great place to live. Or call to find out
about our exciting upcoming November
events and inquire about our Manager’s
Special for a limited time only that you will
not want to miss out on. Please call Patti or
Lisa at 248-236-8300 for more details.
We look forward to hearing from you
soon!
Cash, gifts for
the holidays
The holidays are less than two
months away and the We Buy It Buy
& Sell Center in Oxford is ready to help
area residents, make times brighter.
They can help with holiday purchases
and gift giving by both buying unwanted
items and selling great-conditioned mer-
chandise.
Opened this year, they are already
a popular business in town. “When you
stop in,” co-owner Kevin Rowden said,
“you’ll see why we are the fastest
growing buyer in the area.”
Their inventory is quite extensive and
holiday shoppers should take a peek be-
fore heading out to the malls.
“We specialize in anything from mu-
sical instruments, tools, modern elec-
tronics, gaming systems, furniture, an-
tiques -- we’ve have been quite pleased
with our inventory,” Kevin said.
Rowden and his brother, Greg
Rowden, are both fully licensed to buy
10k through 24k and dental gold.
“Right now is a great time with great
opportunities to make some extra cash
for the holidays. Folks can bring in any
scrap gold, regardless of condition.
We’ll evaluate it and pay them top dol-
lar for it,” Kevin said.
The Buy & Sell Center also buys
and sells silver coins and bullion, “Even
entire coin collections,” Kevin added.
We Buy It Buy & Sell Center is lo-
cated on the west side of M-24 (650 S.
Lapeer Road), next to the Oxford
Leader building, south of downtown
Oxford. They are open Monday thru
Friday, 10 to 6; Saturday, 10-3. For
more information call 248-236-0869.
