The final column for 2014 has been written and the staff of The Citizen and the correspondents will enjoy the holidays. News will not stop for the remaining seven days of 2014 and when the next paper is printed and delivered to your door, the festivities of Christmas and New Year’s will be a memory. Hopefully all will have an enjoyable time with family and friends and their memories will be happy ones. I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and thank everyone for news tips over the year. It is the little things about our community that have people enjoying the best little local newspaper around. Thanks to all and enjoy the holidays! Having a little harder time enjoying Christmas this year is Brenda Wheeler. She suffered an unfortunate accident and has a badly broken ankle. She is lucky to have her children home to lend a hand over Christmas, but she will be a while recuperating. We wish her all the best and fast healing. Jeff Thompson is also laid up for Christmas, as he had a knee replacement the week before in Toronto and we wish him well in his recuperation. Glen Johnston is still a patient in Wingham Hospital and we hope he will be home for Christmas. Neil McDonald has arrived back in Ontario to celebrate Christmas with us. He will have time to visit with many of the relatives and with friends as well. My two oldest grandchildren have birthdays in December. We celebrated Brea’s two weeks ago and this weekend we celebrated Connor’s in New Hamburg. Always tough having a birthday so close to Christmas. There will be a Christmas Eve service at many of the churches of our community including Duff’s United. With an uncertain future ahead of the congregation, our church family can celebrate the birth of Jesus, together. The service will be led by Patty Banks and other members of the congregation. We encourage all to attend with their families for the joyous celebration of Christmas. This will be the final service for 2014 and services will resume at Duff’s in February. The Unified Board of Duff’s has decided to not hold services for the month of January. We can assume it may be an old fashioned Huron County winter and everyone will feel better having our church members safe and warm at home. We will look forward to seeing our church family on the first of February. Celebrating birthdays in the last two weeks of December include Stephen Bernard, Jim Dale, Stephanie Rijkhoff Eedy, Abby Strome, Meg Fritz, Geoff Dalton, Marjory Humphries, Jeff Lewington, Glen Mader, David Pethick, Brittany Storey, Natalie Wakabayashi, Brody Goodfellow, Jean Bewley, Connor Jarosz.

Continued from page 1 what keeps you sustainable,” MacLellan said. “Over the term of these requests, you should come back and tell us how successful you’ve been. If it’s taxpayers’ dollars, we should be aware.” He suggested that the centre continue to hold fundraising events and food drives in an attempt to make it more sustainable, rather t han turning up every year for its cheque. Council then passed a motion to direct staff to prepare a report on a potential donation to the centre and to bring it back to council at a future meeting.

Wings, french fries and beverages were paired with a draw for different kinds of meats and Christmas music to celebrate the holiday season. Judy Lee, one of the volunteers helping to run the event, is shown above delivering some of the Legion’s famous wings. (Denny Scott photo) While Huron East Council has stirred up controversy in the past with wind turbine-related road user agreements, council passed an agreement with Northland Power without issue at its Dec. 16 meeting. The agreement is technically signed with the Municipality of West Perth and Grand Bend Wind Limited Partnership and includes community fund provisions for $50,000 annually. This agreement marks the municipality’s third involvement with a wind turbine project. This project will run, in Huron East, from Rogerville Road from London Road to Perth Road 183 (four kilometres) and on Perth Road 183 from Rogerville Road to the transmission line which is just south of Highway 8 (12 kilometres). In his report to council, Chief Administrative Officer Brad Knight said that this project carries with it the highest voltage of any of the three projects in which the municipality is involved. He said that a buried line the length of that being used in this project is not HE approves road-user agreement with wind development company By Shawn Loughlin The Citizen Continued on page 41
