Cupcakes for charity
As part of the Auburn Village-Wide Yard Sale Livia MacVicar, left, with the help of her friend
Sequoia Zondervan sold cupcakes at the end of a village driveway to make money for, as
MacVicar put it, “people without food or house.” The girls made approximately $70 and
donated it to World Vision. (Denny Scott photo)
Auburn Village-wideyard sale succesful
Another successful village-wide
yard sale weekend is behind us. The
weather was beautiful and the rain
held off until late in the afternoon.
The streets were filled with bargain
hunters, as was the Huron Chapel
parking lot for the Auburn Home
and Garden Show. The Auburn and
District Lions put on their final
breakfast until the fall for hungry
folks wandering the village.
The next big event for Auburn will
be the annual plant auction hosted
by the Auburn Horticultural Society

Club shares school book
Eight members of the Walkerburn
Club met at the home of Vera
Penfound on April 16. Christena
Gross was the president of the day.
She read poems and told some
stories from an old elementary
school reader. The stories were
quite interesting and brought back
memories for some of the
members. Christena followed with
The Lord's Prayer in unison. Eileen
McClinchey read the minutes of the
March meeting and took the roll
call, answered with each member’s
favourite subject in school and ways
to use vinegar. Ila gave the
treasurer’s report.
The next meeting will be held one
week early on May 14 at the home
of Christena Gross. Pat Hunking
will be president of the day,
Christena will provide lunch and Ila
is on program. The afternoon was
spent quilting a lap quilt. The week
before, three club members met on
two separate days to quilt a lap
quilt. Vera had it bound and ready to
show the members. Mary Elder also
showed a lap quilt that she had
machine quilted and bound.
Vera served lunch of chocolate
cake and ice cream and fresh fruit.
After a social half hour some
members went home while three
members continued quilting for a
while. Ila returned on Thursday
and the quilt was completed at that
time.
