MacPher-' Son. along with their cottage host- ess, Mrs. ROss Gammie, Loree. Gammie and her friend Joanne Nicholson of Lucknow all combined to make up the party. A stock truck from the. Gammie • farm was scrubbed clean and Sleep- ing accomodation was set up in the !truck and in a tent loaned by Don Cameron of Lucknow. Ross Gammi trucked. the .girls to the beach on Saturday after spending consider- able time preparing the equipment This summer has had a fine rec-. ord of warm, sunny weekends and it was no great surprise. to beach , folk that they could -not be blessed • with. this weather forever. Before the girls ,got tucked into their beds on Saturday night, the rain' came. and'the truck tarpaulin failed to prove effective against the storm. So, most of the girls were brought ,indoors., and slept on the cottage floor for the first 'night. Sunday night 'was a;repetit- ion of Saturday, weatherwise,: but despite= the continuing rain,, the spirits were not dampened ,at, all , only the bedding: • The group remained until Mori - day afternoon•when they returned home. The youngsters enjoyed lots of. swimming, boating, hiking. dancing and boy watching. Isabel, Elaine,. Jennie and Grace learned how to sleep a family of 26 under one roof with one washroom and we are sure that the 4-11 leaders training course does not include ' this. The foursome learned a few new dance steps and from what we saw of the outing, they were pretty good sports under trying circumstances.
