Recreation Director
Last week I wrote through the
medium of this paper something
I thought the town shouldknow
about its people, and its sup-
port, I meant no reflection on
anyone but since that time I
have hadseveral remarks made
to me, some in favor, and some
not so favorable. I am wonder-
ing if the truth slightly hurts.
I have been given to under-
stand that the town people like
to keep the business in town,
and keepsticking together ,in
all activities. I hope this same
feeling materializes this winter
in all the arena activities.
I feel like our Good Lordfelt
when they crucified him, and
spat at him, and rejected him.
That's the way it has been since
last week's letter. He could not
please everybody when he was
on earth, so I guess there is no
sense in trying rnyself.
Let's all pull together and not
against one another.
This week the recreation com-
mittee is sending two girls to
Goderich to camp from June 20
to 27, to help with the playground
activities which I am hoping to
start on June 30, which will be
registration day starting at 9
every day from 9 to 12 a,m. ex-
cept Saturday and Sunday,
Last Saturday our minor base-
ball team had a game with Clin-
ton which they won 11 to 1, Con-
gratulations boys. Also our pee
wee team, which played last.
Monday, won. Congratulations to
them also.
I noticed a better supporting
cast at the games, let's keep it
up folks. I know the spirit of
Hensall is here, evenif it has
lacked support in the past years.
Let's put Hensall back onthe
map with softball games and
baseball games and other acti-
vities.
The pee wee team has been
asked to enter the pee wee tour-
nament in St. Thomas on July 1.
If anyone is interested in taking
some of these boys to St. Tho-
mas on July 1 kindly get in
touch with me at the arena or at
247W. We need four cars,
I think it's an honour to have
been asked to participate in this
tournament, so let's get behind
the boys, and send thein,
When the hockey starts this
fall, we will have the dressing
room floors covered with can-
vas to protect the players'
skates.
