Kicking off the concert
Hullett Central Public School was scheduled to host its annual Christmas concert on
Wednesday with both a matinee show and an evening show, but held its dress rehearsal on
Tuesday morning after snow cancelled the original Monday show. The concert was kicked off
by the school band playing some Christmas tunes. On the trumpet were, from left, Laurie
Steinson, Hailey Govier and Shayna Hunking. (Denny Scott photo)

BIA Golden Tickets
for 2017 Festival
season still available
By Denny Scott
The Citizen
The Blyth Business Improvement
Area (BIA) is supporting two
initiatives involved with the
intersections of County Roads 4 and
25.
Two letters were presented to the
organization regarding the
intersection, which has become a
hot topic with a petition being
circulated throughout Blyth and its
surrounding communities asking for
traffic lights there.
The first letter was to support the
traffic light initiative, while the
second is to extend sidewalks and
have pedestrian crosslights added to
the intersection.
Blyth BIA Chair Rick Elliott
explained that the intersection
wasn't engineered well when it was
last worked on, in his opinion, and
that with the soccer fields, Huron
Pioneer Thresher Reunion, Tim
Hortons and Blyth Cowbell Brewing
Company all in close proximity to
the intersection, pedestrian traffic
needs to be considered.
Both letters were approved to be
sent to North Huron Council.
After some discussion, it was also
revealed that transport trucks
stopping on the side of the road were
providing a problem at the
intersection.
North Huron Council BIA
representative Councillor Bill Knott
advised members of the BIA to
contact the police immediately if
someone noticed a truck blocking
sight lines or impeding traffic at the
site.
***
The BIA is supportive of an idea
for banners that will honour veterans
in the community.
Originally seen in communities
like Lucknow, Milverton, Ripley,
Mount Forest, Harriston and
Clinton, the banners honour
veterans and, according to Blyth
Legion BIA representative Crystal
Taylor, are very respectful.
The banners will be discussed in
the near future with the Blyth
Legion Branch 420 and Blyth
Legion Branch Ladies Auxiliary to
strike a plan for the coming year.
***
Golden Tickets are still available
at local establishments for the draw
early next year.
The tickets, which provide the
winner with two tickets to each of
the four main -stage shows at the
Blyth Festival, are sold locally as a
fundraiser for the BIA.
Golden Ticket organizer Peter
Gusso explained the draw will be
held shortly after the sales period
ends on Jan. 31 and said tickets are
still available at the Part II Bistro.
***
The Blyth BIA's annual Christmas
house -decorating contest is in full
swing with judges making their
rounds to find the winners.
The event seeks to recognize
people for their Christmas
decoration efforts by giving awards
for the best -decorated houses.
Watch The Citizen for
announcement of the winners who
will receive gifts provided by local
businesses.
