New for
Summer!
By Jo-Ann McDonaldIt has been a quiet week aroundthe Brussels Legion Branch but the
weekend makes up for it.
House Chairman Andy Adams has
been busy catching up with a few
odd jobs. He has managed to get the
air conditioner installed in the
upstairs hallway and hopefully it
will make a big difference in
keeping it cooler upstairs.
The fish fry crew was off to the
Seaforth Agriplex to do a fry on
Friday. They fed 150 and the
foursome working were Rick and
Jo-Ann McDonald, Lee Ann
Konarski and Judy Lee. The prep
work for the fry was handled by Deb
Caan and Jo-Ann.
The Saturday afternoon euchre
had 10 tables of players. Winners
were: first, Marjorie Mogk and
Doreen Skinner, 77 points; second,
Pauline and Bernice, 72 points;
third, Delores Howatt and Lillian
Appleby, 70 points; low, Bill and
Faye Albert, 41 points; lone hand,
Viola Adams and Ruth Sharpin,
seven.
The Sunday night singles dance
enjoyed the music of the Country
Versatiles. There were about 74
folks enjoy the new sound of the
band. They have went through a fewchanges with members of theoriginal band suffering some health
problems, but they sound great.
There is no dance in two weeks, but
it will return Aug. 7.

Pool gives off summer sounds
Ah summer. The school kids have
caught the rhythm and are making
the best of these warm sultry days.
Only water ready for a swim makes
this kind of warmth a pleasure and
only children know how to enjoy it
with such abandon using only the
sun and water as their resources. The
voices, enjoying the Lions’ pool
every day attest to this. So here’s to
the days of summer.
Joan Jacobs has just returned from
a cruise to Alaska. The scenery with
the mountains and water was
breathtaking and the different
climate zones in that region were a
wonder to behold. Trees, flowers and
shrubs in full bloom was almost a
trick for the eyes when the ice fields
were just ahead.
Life on a cruise ship is a marvel,
feeding, entertaining and housing
thousands of travellers on the water,
miles from shore. The ordering of
supplies must take a logistical talent,
but that is not one of the
considerations when folks are
enjoying their days of leisure. Joan
had a good cruise experience but
was glad to get home.
Granddaughters took preference
over Citizen columns for me last
week. We went camping at Earl
Rowe Provincial Park near Alliston.
The weather was just fine for biking,
swimming and water play. A tub of
water, balloons and children are a
great combination in summer. Being
girls, they camp different than boys
so Ralph set up a tent just for their
“things” and that made life less
cluttered for all in the trailer. Jordan,
Robyn and Jill have great
imaginations and so stories around
the campfire were a highlight for
me. Because we were near to Barrie,
Ella and Sloan were able to hitch a
ride of couple of times to visit us at
the campground. So the cousins did
a little bonding, and yes water was
involved.
The best part of being a
grandparent is watching children
develop and so times like this with
no parents in sight is a joy and
blessing.
Church holidays put a different
gathering of people together for
worship, this is a good thing as we
all hear the same story and knowing
this we still think we all need our
own buildings and rules. God must
just look and wonder. Put Rev. Peter
from Bluevale/Walton in your
prayers as his brother died recently
in Africa and distance makes this
grief even harder.
The ball park is a busy spot so pop
over and watch the action as
everyone from the wee guys to the
old folks play ball.
Enjoy all the music and plays
available in our area, so much to do
and so little time – oh well, keep
trying.
Bye now and take care,
Betty G.W.
