Eight members and three guests headed out to Seaforth, first stop, lunch at the bakery. There they were met by Ken Cardno to tour the Cardno Music Hall. Built in 1877 the hall is still owned by the Cardno family. A hand- painted curtain still hangs on stage depicting a fisherman in a boat and a castle in the background. Local ads border the edges. It is a great piece of history. After, members headed to the Seaforth Town Hall for a short meeting. They went upstairs to the museum that was opened July 1999 and houses the collections of businesses, sports, organizations, military and the cultural history of Seaforth. The next meeting is June 10 at 12:30 p.m. for a potluck lunch. This will be held at Yvonne Knight’s home and will be the last meeting until September. PAGE 2. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2009. Here we go again, another month has bit the dust. Perhaps it’s the nice weather and folks are out and about but yes time is flying once again. Sandra Cable is no longer a student minister. At a celebration in Windsor on Saturday, Sandra was duly recognized as a designated lay minister in the United Church of Canada. We look forward to having Sandra in our midst now that time is a little more her own – at least student assignment wise. Howard and Joan Bernard, Glenda Morrison, Kathy and Frank Workman, Murray Hoover and I attended the service where five others were also received or ordained. Julia Sinclair serving Clinton United Church was ordained at the same celebration and a large number of her members attended. Ralph Watson and Jim Armstrong got safely home from San Paolo, Brazil last Friday. Lots and lots and lots of airplane stories, but then, that’s what they went for and so had a marvelous time. The Pietenpol factory, workers and owners as well as interesting food and people made up for a very memorable holiday. Get your yard sale things ready – at home or for the Library tables. The Lions Club fundraiser is coming fast. See your favourite member for a ticket. The United Church is offering a delicious dinner and great music on May 30. Get your space saved now. Bye now, Betty G.W. On May 16 between 8 and 10 p.m. two Brussels residents left their home to visit with friends. The house was locked, the lights were on and their vehicles were in the driveway. Despite all that, unknown person(s) broke into the home and stole a large quantity of goods. The items include: a purse, a pair of 7" sterling silver candlesticks stamped with an anchor, a 5" high silver Carriage clock stamped with three bundles of corn, a 4" high sterling silver milk jug and 3" high sugar bowl stamped with a leopard’s head as well as Canadian and U.S. currency. The value of the missing items is estimated to be over $15,000. Anyone observing any suspicious persons or vehicles in Brussels during that timeframe are being urged to contact the Huron OPP at 1- 800-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers 1- 800-222-TIPS(8477). Majestic Institute takes mystery tour Home robbed Hit the rink The ice has melted for another year and it was time to go roller skating last Friday at the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre. A crowded rink of skaters spent hours circling one another before the sun went down and the night’s feature, Bedtime Stories was shown to the crowd.
