Walkerburn Club
makes donations
The year 2015 is drawing to a
close for the Walkerburn Club. On
Oct. 19 the members of the club met
at the home of Eileen McClinchey.
Maggie Treanor, president of the
month, opened with two poems,
“White Eyes” and “November”.
Prayer followed with everyone
joining in. Deanna Snell read the
minutes of the last meeting and Ila
Cunningham gave the treasurer’s
report. Roll call was a Halloween
story. Eileen served a delicious lunch
of apple pudding, ice cream, tea and
coffee.
The November meeting of the club
was held at the home of Maggie
Treanor. Deanna Snell, president,
opened with a poem, “Home and
Love” by Robert Service and one on
Remembrance Day. Eileen
McClinchey read the minutes and Ila
Cunningham gave the treasurer’s
report. Roll call was answered with a
fun night and the calendar for the
next year was made out. It was
moved to make donations to the
Salvation Army, One Care and Soup
and More. Some members had met
at the home of Vera Penfound the
week before and tied quilts. There
were four small quilts to be donated
to Soup and More.
The next meeting is to be at Pat
Hunking’s home on Jan. 18 with
Mary as president, Vera in charge of
the program and Pat on lunch.
Christmas cards were signed for
past members as well as ones to go
with the gifts to be given to some of
the residents at Anfield Manor
Retirement Home. Members will be
singing Christmas carols at the
retirement home on Dec.10.
Dorothy Schneider was a very
capable auctioneer for the
miscellaneous sale. A sound sum of
money was raised to help with the
club’s donations. Deanna and
Maggie served a delicious lunch.
After a social time, all the members
left for home.
Committee working on Wingham Trail
The Wingham Community Trail
Committee impressed several
members of North Huron Township
Council with its annual update
during council’s Nov. 16 meeting.
Phil Beard, representing the
committee, explained that the group
implemented trail dust on the entire
trail, nearly five kilometres, while
also cleaning it up.
The group also added to the
“Tales on the Trail” book, which is
also currently on sale to raise money
for the organization.
Other improvements included a
cedar hedge being planted near a
municipal building, erosion control
strips installed in parts of the
trail, 200 wildflowers being planted
along the portion of the trail that
goes to Maitland River Elementary
School, maintenance of the entrance
garden and the removal of
Himalayan balsam along the trail,
which is an invasive species.
He also stated that the
organization is again looking to
sell plaques for the trail.
“The demand is up,” he said,
adding that the money from plaque
sales can be used to help upgrade the
trail.
“We want to continue working
with North Huron to make sure the
trail is usable,” Beard said. “The trail
and park are North Huron’s all-
season outdoor recreation complex.
It’s used for walking, fishing, skiing
and snowmobiling.”
Scheduled projects and
maintenance for 2016 include
improving the entrance gardens,
removing shrubs for certain areas
of the park, removing weeds,
planting more wildflowers,
removing trees growing under
the walking bridge, hosting a walk
based on the group’s book,
continuing to remove Himalayan
balsam, maintaining the trail kiosk
and making other repairs and
maintenance throughout the trail as
necessary.
Beard said that the members of the
committee want to keep the trail
vibrant and they realize the township
can’t provide everything and that
some responsibility rests on the
community to tackle some projects.
Councillor Trevor Seip liked that
sentiment.
“This is the type of group or
committee that exemplifies a good
partnership with North Huron,” he
said. “We can’t have everything in
the municipality funded, but with
groups and committee members like
this who support with funds and
work with the recreation department
it gives us the option to have this for
ratepayers.”
Councillor Brock Vodden also
applauded the committee, saying
that when he lived in Wingham for
two years, he and his wife really
enjoyed the trail.
“It’s a great asset for the
community and well done,” he
said.
Making lovely music
The Blyth Christian Reformed Church was the host church of this year’s Blyth community
Christmas church service, an annual tradition that brings the congregations of the Blyth
Community Church of God, the Blyth United Church, Trinity Anglican Church and Living Water
Christian Fellowship in Blyth, as well as neighbour church Huron Chapel in Auburn, for one
special night of worship and song in one rotating location. This year’s service featured a
special Christmas message by Living Waters Pastor Ernest Dow and a number of musical
performances. Here, from left, Helen van Leeuwen, Marg Steele, Dan Bouman and Laurina
Van Dorp performed for those assembled at the church, while Emily Wilts, not pictured,
accompanied the group on piano. (Vicky Bremner photo)
