The Wayne Dispatch - November 2015 middot 3

Hersquos known as a husband to hiswife Sue dad to his three childrenand to the residents of Wayne he haslong been known as councilman

ldquoSome people call me Al butthose close to me know that I preferAlbertrdquo says Albert Damitio whoafter 22 years of service has retiredfrom the Wayne City Council

But few may know that Damitioalso answers to a less suspectingmoniker

ldquoChipsrdquo Damitio confesses of thenickname he acquired during hisearly years as a member of theWayne Jaycees ldquoBecause I love po-tato chipsrdquo

But as much as he loves snackfood he loves the City of Waynemore

Born on the east side of Detroitnear Detroit City Airport ndash and hav-ing grown up in that area too ndash 43years ago Damitio married a womanfrom Wayne named Sue and the twohave remained here ever since

ldquoShe would never leaverdquo saysDamitio with kind-hearted laughter

The couple did much more thanpurchase their first home in WayneThey laid down roots becoming theproud parents of two daughters andone son ndash Amy 41 Carey 39 andDavid 35 ndash who have produced ninegrandchildren between them

Damitio who earned degreesfrom the University of Detroit WayneState University Michigan State Uni-versity and a masters in mechanicalengineering from University of Michi-gan-Dearborn first delved into thewaters of civic leadership as a mem-ber and president of the WayneJaycees and still fondly recalls thewide array of projects he is pleasedto have been a part of

ldquoThe Christmas parade thehaunted house we did at the commu-nity center bike safety initiativeshelliprdquoDamitio remembers ldquoAfter being in-volved with all those projects it wassort of natural to seek electionrdquo

An appointment to the WaynePlanning Commission followed andthen Damitio began his tenure as aWayne councilman after first becom-

ing elected in 1983 He served 12consecutive years before yielding toan entirely different ball game

Puck game actuallyldquoOur kids were growing up in

high school and such and my wifeand I were busy with a lot of activi-ties ndash and one of them includedhockeyrdquo says Damitio who coachedfor 12 years in several communitiesincluding Garden City and AllenPark in addition to Wayne ldquoI donrsquotknow if you know about hockey butit gets to be quite consumingrdquo

Damitio returned to the council

after becoming appointed in 2005 toreplace the seat that had been va-cated by Don Hartford and Damitiosays that his financial concernsabout the city are what lured himback to serve He went on to experi-ence two successful elections in2007 and 2011

He cites two deeds in particularwith eliciting within him the mostpride the construction of the WaynePublic Library and his involvementin the Dangerous Building Commis-sion

ldquoWhen we built the library it was

fully paid forrdquo Damitio recallsldquoWhen we were discussing locationand how to pay for it I suggestedthat we use DDA (Downtown Devel-opment Authority) funds because itis located in the downtown areaAnd today I think itrsquos such a greatfacility ndash my grandkids my wife andI use it all the timerdquo

And while Damitiorsquos role as oneof the founding members of the cityrsquosDangerous Building Commissiontook place between his terms on thecouncil his involvement with thecommission ranks high on his list ofpolitical achievements

Says Damitio who was elected bycommission members to serve aschairman ldquoThe procedure to takedown a building that had not beenkept up properly would literally take10 years or more ndash and sometimeslegally nothing could be done TheDangerous Building Commission en-abled us to expedite the process byreviewing inspections of the buildingand gave owners time to fix up thebuilding and if they couldnrsquot thebuilding would be removed ndashwhether it is a business or a houseNo one wants to be a neighbor tothat rdquo

The councilrsquos effort to create sep-arate storm and drain water systemsndash which according to Damitiobrought about ldquoa night and day dif-ferencerdquo regarding the condition ofthe Rouge River ndash is also somethinghersquos thankful to have been a part of

Today Damitio maintains thatWayne still needs a balanced budgetas well as a fully-staffed police de-partment He says ldquoWe are too shortof police officers to be able to ade-quately serve the citizens We stillhave work to dordquo

Yet Damitio must respectfullyleave those changes for the nextchapter of the cityrsquos civic leadershipBecause the City of Wayne passed aterm limit provision which prohibitsan elected official from serving morethan 16 years as a councilpersonmayor or any combination of the

Councilman Albert ldquoChipsrdquo Damitio celebrates retirement with his favorite snack

Living for this CityHe may be retiring from the Wayne City Council after 22 years but Albert Damitio

will continue to serve as a champion of the city he loves and the place he calls home

ldquoWhen we were discussing location and how to pay for it

I suggested that we use DDA (Downtown Development

Authority) funds because it is located in the downtown area

And today I think itrsquos such a great facility ndash

my grandkids my wife and I use it all the timerdquo

1084 That was the number tobeat set by a group in RichmondCalifornia on August 15 of this yearto take back the Guinness WorldRecord title for largest gathering ofRosie the Riveters The Willow RunBomber Plant surpassed that num-ber with 2096 Rosiersquos on October24th

They came from all over Michiganto be part of this moment 16 statesand Canada were representedThere were 44 ldquoreal Rosiesrdquo from theWorld War II era that were also partof the festivities

Rosie the Riveter became theiconic image associated with recruit-ing female workers for the munitionsindustry during World War II Thebandana clad Rosie was a fictitiouscharacter based on a real-life muni-tions worker The Rosie the Rivetergovernment campaign stressed thepatriotic need for women to enter thework force With men away at warmanufacturers and the governmentwere desperate for workers Thesewomen proved that women could domenrsquos jobs and do it well At WillowRun women were paid 75 cents anhour the same as men This wasconsidered good pay at that timeAfter the war many women left thefactories to focus on raising theirfamilies or to do more traditionalldquowomenrsquosrdquo jobs but there were alsomany who stayed within the indus-trial workforce

Wayne resident Brenda Ozog saysshe first felt a call in March 2014 tohelp save the historic Willow Runbomber plant She joined 776 otherwomen for the first Guinness WorldRecord attempt at that time ldquoWemade it happenrdquo she says After theevent she called her grandfatherJohn Sheneman to talk about theevent She learned that her greatgrandfather was a veteran of WorldWar I and would travel from Topin-abee MI to work with the women atthe bomber plant In 1942 a callwent out for all able bodied men tocome work at the plants so hergrandfather worked at the Box Plantwhere they put engines on the skidsfor the airplane engines

Brenda never got to meet hergreat grandfather Her mother even-tually gave her his wallet to scan thephotos he carried in his wallet

Brenda discovered his BomberUnion Card and has since learnedfrom the Yankee Air Museum thatthey have not yet acquired one fortheir museum and would be inter-ested in it if she ever decides to do-nate it

When Richmond beat WillowRunrsquos record in August Brenda feltthat with her new-found family con-nection she had a mission to helpsave the bomber plant

When she arrived at the record-breaking event she had a copy of hergreat grandfatherrsquos Bomber Unioncard pinned to her shirt ldquoIt was anamazing experience and it made meproud to know I had someone hereback then I hope my grandfatherwas looking down at me with satis-faction and knowing I was proud ofhim and his efforts in World War IIMy mother grandfather and I pur-chased a brick in his honor for theWWII monument in Royal Oak say-ing John Sheneman Topinabee MIYpsi Bomber Plantrdquo

Trying to get the word out aroundWayne before the event was residentRobert Webb He even created aRosie scarecrow for Wayne MainStreetrsquos scarecrow display down-town Robertrsquos 95 year old motheris a WWII Rosie from the Willow RunBomber Assembly Plant She was ariveter rivet inspector and a rivetgun trainer during the time theywere building the big bombers Shestarted at the beginning of produc-tion and stayed until the last B-24left Willow Run

Robert and his mother are both

members of the ARRA (AmericanRosie the Riveter Association) Theyvolunteer to help save the bomberplant His momrsquos great granddaugh-ters won 3rd place in theWayneWestland Memorial Day Pa-rade in May for their ldquoWillow RunRose Budsrdquo wagon float they pulledin the parade A Rosie descendant iscalled a Rose Bud

While at a USO dance a few yearsago long before the Yankee Air Mu-seum was trying to save the WillowRun hangars Robertrsquos mom wastalking to a lady who told her theywere planning on tearing down Wil-low Run ldquoI remember mom sayingto me lsquoTherersquos too much history be-hind those walls to let them tear itdownrsquo Since then wersquove worked ontrying to save some of ithellipand so farthey have saved a small section of itfor the new museumrdquo

There were several improve-ments at this recent event that werenot available at the March 2014event Several food trucks were keptbusy feeding hungry Rosies Therewas occasional entertainment tobreak up the stretch of time fromwhen the registration tables openedat 10am until the official Rosie gath-ering at 2pm

There was an area for children tocolor or read stories about Rosie theRiveter For $195 and up you couldtake a ride in a bi-plane There wasa long lineup of silent auction itemsto bid on Sales were brisk at themuseum table-the We Can Do It tote-bags sold out quickly Other itemsavailable included books about the

plant and about Rosies playingcards die-cast planes and decalsThe WWII Rosies had a special areawhere they could relax before the of-ficial count

My mother-in-law Alicia Marnon(a Wayne resident) and I attended theevent We wore our official Rosie cos-tumes adhering to the strict guide-lines set by Guinness A Rosie hadto wear either dark blue workers cov-eralls with long sleeves or a long-sleeved dark blue collared shirt anddark blue pants or very dark bluejeans black or dark brown low heelwork boots or work shoes red knee-socks with pants rolled up to showthem and a red with large whitepolka dots bandanna tied at the topof the head As we entered we weregiven a schedule of events and askedto choose a tag representing a realRosie from the past that we couldwear around our necksFor a $5 do-nation Rosies could tour the BoeingB17G ldquoYankee Ladyrdquo This planehad a walkway in the middle of itthat was very narrow You stood onit and looked down to see the opensky below One would hope thecrewmembers were wearing para-chutes in case they suffered a mis-step

When the time came the Rosieswere called to start lining up to gothrough the turnstiles into the stag-ing area Men volunteers were hold-ing signs that displayed incrementsof 50 1-50 51-100 etc All the wayup to 2000 The Rosies werecounted as they entered and as-signed to a ldquosignrdquo Chants of ldquoRosieRosierdquo were led several times Whenthe last Rosies were counted theoriginal WWII Rosies were broughtinto the area and seated at the frontTo be considered for the worldrecord the Rosies had to stand to-gether for 5 minutes During thattime they recited The Pledge of Alle-giance and sang the National An-them Amazing Grace and Americathe Beautiful

It was announced that the worldrecord wasldquounofficiallyrdquo 2096Cheers went up from the crowd Thebig doors to the hangar which wasthe staging area rose up and theRosies spilled out into the cool fallair Laughter was heard as thecrowd started to disperse What arecord-setting day

Twelve to fourteen young womenfrom Wayne and Westland arepreparing for the annual Distin-guished Young Women awards on De-cember 4 Distinguished YoungWomen is a national scholarship pro-gram that inspires high school girlsto develop their full individual po-tential through a fun transformativeexperience that culminates in a cele-bratory showcase of their accom-plishments This is the 49th year forWayneWestland which happens tobe the largest local program in Michi-gan

The focus on the program is onscholarship rather than beauty Theprogram was previously known asJunior Miss but because they weretrying to disassociate themselveswith being thought of as a beautypageant the name was changed toDistinguished Young Women

The motto is ldquoBe your best selfrdquoThe program tries to help girls be-come their individual best physicallymentally educationally and health-wise

Lauren Perry WayneWestlandJunior Miss 2005 is in her 3rd yearas co-director of the local programalong with Jodi Berry The Distin-guished Young Women organizationis one that continually inspiresyoung women while providing themwith opportunities to learn moreabout themselves and their localcommunities This program is onethat I am incredibly proud to be apart of and I find it to have a posi-tive impact on young ladies One ofour main goals is to provide an av-enue for our participants to supple-ment their college experience viascholarship opportunities and to rec-

ognize their individual strengths andcapabilities

In the fall the program seeks outgirls who are interested in participat-ing An orientation follows to givethe girls more information about theprogram There are five mandatorypractices held through October andNovember each about three hourslong These practices include miniworkshops where girls learn inter-view skills how to dress for an inter-view and other important skills ayoung woman should have Theyalso learn a routine for the physicalfitness part of the program

The program has traditionallybeen for high school senior girlsThe program is transitioning to afocus on high school junior girls sothis year there will be juniors andseniors participating The transitioncame about because it was thoughtthat junior girls were beginning theircollege journey and needed help ear-lier with scholarships A senior girlwill become the 2016 winner whilethe junior girl will be named the2017 winner at this yearrsquos event inDecember

The girls are judged in five cate-gories talent poise scholastic inter-view and fitness Two girls will beawarded scholarship money in eachcategory Scholastic is based ontheir transcript in school Fitness isbased on how well they do in a rou-tine the girls all do together Forpoise the girls answer a question onstage wearing a knee-length dressTalent can be anything the girl isgood at A talent does not have to bedancing or singing This year a girlwill be showcasing her bowling tal-ents and another will be showing offher figure skating talents This isdone by showing videos during theirtalent segment while the girl talksabout her talent andor passion onstage in detail Interview involves a10-minute interview with the girl bythe judges and also how she isdressed for the interview

There is no cost for a girl to par-ticipate in the program The girlsare asked to help sell advertising inthe program (a way to give them ex-perience in new skills) but they arenot required to sell any The moremoney that is brought in through ad-

vertising and donorssponsors themore that goes toward the scholar-ship awards There is no set amountfor each scholarship award Eachyear it is based on how much hasbeen raised for that yearrsquos programThe program recently had afundraiser at Buffalo Wild Wings inWestland where 20 percent of thedinerrsquos bill was donated to the pro-gram They will be holding a Poinset-tia Fundraiser November 7-21Prices range from $10-$25 with achoice of red pink or white flowersOrders will then be available for pickup on November 29 If you wouldlike to order poinsettias and help in-crease the scholarship money youcan email Lauren at wayne-west-landdistinguishedyworg

could he isnrsquot quite sureldquoYou know thatrsquos a good ques-

tionrdquo Damitio begins ldquoI had inten-tions to but I canrsquot say for positivethat I would have I wouldnrsquot haveminded to serve further but at thispoint therersquos no choice reallyrdquo

One thing is for certain howeverThat Damitio is appreciative of theget-well cards prayers and visits hereceived when he was diagnosedwith melanoma cancer in the begin-ning of 2011

ldquoI had a large cyst about the sizeof a fist in my right legrdquo Damitio re-calls ldquoThe morning I dropped off mypetitions to run for council my wifedrove me straight from there to U ofM Hospital for my operation Andthe fact that I received such over-

whelming support from this commu-nity ndash when everyonersquos got their ownproblems ndash makes it even more im-pressiverdquo

To say that Damitio has had agreat run as councilman would be anunderstatement and perhaps thelargest boon is that he continues tolove the City of Wayne

Says Damitio who is also a re-tiree of Chrysler after a 39-year ca-reer as an engineer with thecompany ldquoI love the State WayneTheatre the mural and museumrdquo

With a successful career andtenure as councilman now in hisrearview mirror Damitio and hiswife now look forward to travelingmore The couple has already visitedFrance more than a dozen times andvows to return soon

She said it is a testament to howwell they are doing this season

ldquoTheir times significantly im-proved the first meet this seasonand have been dropping steadily eversince (3-5 minutes for each girl)rdquoshe commented (Jessica) Leighbroke the school record October 13when we faced John Glenn Her timewas 2015 which beat the old mark

of 2022 set in 1980 by LauraWeyand

Hersquos known as a husband to hiswife Sue dad to his three childrenand to the residents of Wayne he haslong been known as councilman

ldquoSome people call me Al butthose close to me know that I preferAlbertrdquo says Albert Damitio whoafter 22 years of service has retiredfrom the Wayne City Council

But few may know that Damitioalso answers to a less suspectingmoniker

ldquoChipsrdquo Damitio confesses of thenickname he acquired during hisearly years as a member of theWayne Jaycees ldquoBecause I love po-tato chipsrdquo

But as much as he loves snackfood he loves the City of Waynemore

Born on the east side of Detroitnear Detroit City Airport ndash and hav-ing grown up in that area too ndash 43years ago Damitio married a womanfrom Wayne named Sue and the twohave remained here ever since

ldquoShe would never leaverdquo saysDamitio with kind-hearted laughter

The couple did much more thanpurchase their first home in WayneThey laid down roots becoming theproud parents of two daughters andone son ndash Amy 41 Carey 39 andDavid 35 ndash who have produced ninegrandchildren between them

Damitio who earned degreesfrom the University of Detroit WayneState University Michigan State Uni-versity and a masters in mechanicalengineering from University of Michi-gan-Dearborn first delved into thewaters of civic leadership as a mem-ber and president of the WayneJaycees and still fondly recalls thewide array of projects he is pleasedto have been a part of

ldquoThe Christmas parade thehaunted house we did at the commu-nity center bike safety initiativeshelliprdquoDamitio remembers ldquoAfter being in-volved with all those projects it wassort of natural to seek electionrdquo

An appointment to the WaynePlanning Commission followed andthen Damitio began his tenure as aWayne councilman after first becom-

ing elected in 1983 He served 12consecutive years before yielding toan entirely different ball game

Puck game actuallyldquoOur kids were growing up in

high school and such and my wifeand I were busy with a lot of activi-ties ndash and one of them includedhockeyrdquo says Damitio who coachedfor 12 years in several communitiesincluding Garden City and AllenPark in addition to Wayne ldquoI donrsquotknow if you know about hockey butit gets to be quite consumingrdquo

Damitio returned to the council

after becoming appointed in 2005 toreplace the seat that had been va-cated by Don Hartford and Damitiosays that his financial concernsabout the city are what lured himback to serve He went on to experi-ence two successful elections in2007 and 2011

He cites two deeds in particularwith eliciting within him the mostpride the construction of the WaynePublic Library and his involvementin the Dangerous Building Commis-sion

ldquoWhen we built the library it was

fully paid forrdquo Damitio recallsldquoWhen we were discussing locationand how to pay for it I suggestedthat we use DDA (Downtown Devel-opment Authority) funds because itis located in the downtown areaAnd today I think itrsquos such a greatfacility ndash my grandkids my wife andI use it all the timerdquo

And while Damitiorsquos role as oneof the founding members of the cityrsquosDangerous Building Commissiontook place between his terms on thecouncil his involvement with thecommission ranks high on his list ofpolitical achievements

Says Damitio who was elected bycommission members to serve aschairman ldquoThe procedure to takedown a building that had not beenkept up properly would literally take10 years or more ndash and sometimeslegally nothing could be done TheDangerous Building Commission en-abled us to expedite the process byreviewing inspections of the buildingand gave owners time to fix up thebuilding and if they couldnrsquot thebuilding would be removed ndashwhether it is a business or a houseNo one wants to be a neighbor tothat rdquo

The councilrsquos effort to create sep-arate storm and drain water systemsndash which according to Damitiobrought about ldquoa night and day dif-ferencerdquo regarding the condition ofthe Rouge River ndash is also somethinghersquos thankful to have been a part of

Today Damitio maintains thatWayne still needs a balanced budgetas well as a fully-staffed police de-partment He says ldquoWe are too shortof police officers to be able to ade-quately serve the citizens We stillhave work to dordquo

Yet Damitio must respectfullyleave those changes for the nextchapter of the cityrsquos civic leadershipBecause the City of Wayne passed aterm limit provision which prohibitsan elected official from serving morethan 16 years as a councilpersonmayor or any combination of the

Councilman Albert ldquoChipsrdquo Damitio celebrates retirement with his favorite snack

Living for this CityHe may be retiring from the Wayne City Council after 22 years but Albert Damitio

will continue to serve as a champion of the city he loves and the place he calls home

ldquoWhen we were discussing location and how to pay for it

I suggested that we use DDA (Downtown Development

Authority) funds because it is located in the downtown area

And today I think itrsquos such a great facility ndash

my grandkids my wife and I use it all the timerdquo
