Last week we mentioned that
melodic sounds were being heard
Chimes will soon be ringing
throughout the village as chimes
had been installed at the top of
the old silo at the Craigholme
..., School students enjoy three
days of .outdoor .education
Nursing Home. In case you
haven't heard them, and are
wondering why, we would like to
report that one of the tran-
sformers at the home was hit by
lightning last week during one of
the severe storms, and damage
was suffered to some of the
wiring of the chimes. It is an-
ticipated that this will be
corrected shortly and the chimes
will again be sounding out the
hour.
Parents — do you really know
where your children were last
Wednesday, Thursday end
Friday??? We had a report that
the grades seven and eight
students from the East Williams
public school were on a special
outdoor school session at Pinery
Provincial Park during that
period, and drove out Friday
morning to try to catch some of
the action on film to share with
you, but could find no trace of
them whatever in the park!!!
However, we've had several
concrete reassurances from both
staff and children, that they were
truly there(behind a barricaded
road with sign reading, "road
closed"! ! )
By the way, we weren't the only
one who had difficulty locating
the group; one of the men who
was scheduled to lend a hand with
some instruction also had similar
problems!
It is great to see one of the older
buildings on Main Street getting a
face lifting. The store, formerly
owned by "Dutch" Meadows is
being renovated and prepared for
a new opening.
Baseball season is in full swing
once more, but one of the most
entertaining took place last
Friday evening when the Ailsa
Craig Business Association took
on the Lions club in a game of
donkey baseball.
An enthusiastic crowd of
spectators fully appreciated the
struggles of banker Bill Scott,
and Lion Don Shipway along with
others to gain control of their
donkeys!
With much prodding and
pushing from both teams the final
score was 4-4. To determine who
were the victors, a "donkey
race" was held, with Scott
Hartop coaxing his donkey first
over the finish line .
BY JOY SCHEIFELE
"It was just great!", and "I
wouldn't have wanted to miss it
for anything!" were just a few of
the comments made by the grade
7 and 8 students following their
three day "Outdoor School" held
last week at the Pinery
Provincial Park,
Two classes of 52 children and
their three teachers and one staff
wife and one class mother, left
the school at 9:30 a.m. Wed-
nesday by bus for the park, Each
student had to provide his own
food and cooking utensils - which
had to be fitted into only one
backpack.
After locating the assigned
area, the group each had to set up
his tent for sleeping. It was soon
evident who had camping ex-
perience and who didn't.
However, all were set up before
the rains descended upon them
later,
Studies in subjects related to
the out-of-doors was the main
thrust, and included compass
orienting, topography, forest
studies, profiling, belt to transect
study of vegetation and climate,
and geomorphology - all of which
was related to the unusual sand
dunes at the park.
camp naturalists from the
park gave instruction em-
phasizing that the park itself is
one of the rare spots in America
Ailsa Craig news
.with the sucession of sand dunes
which are a most significant
physical feature, The naturalists
also conducted nature trial hikes,
pointing out many of the sub-
tleties of the park's environment.
Each student was assigned to
keep a daily journal of events
during the school, and this week
the classes will be taking up the
work studied during the period
and expanding further on it.
In addition to the more formal
lessons, each of the students was
responsible for planning and
cooking his own meals and
cleaning up afterwards. Prin-
cipal teacher, Glenn Stott, felt
that next year perhaps more
structure should be added with
lesson included in cooking out-of-
doors. He confessed Mrs. Emily
McLaughlin a parent who
assisted with the program,
"came to my rescue one evening
when my supper burned too!"
Each evening, hikes and a sing
song around the camp fire with a
snack was enjoyed.
In previous years the school
had been held at Camp Ici-mo-
kee, where the children had their
meals cooked for them and
cabins were available for
sleeping, but rising costs made
this plan, prohibitive this year.
The trip to the pinery last week
involved only costs for the buses.
Unfortunately poison ivy is
among the many varieties of
plant life in the park, and some
suffered from contact with it. But
both staff and students returned
with very positive feelings of the
venture.
LET'S GO MY WAY — While the donkey baseball game between
the Ails° Craig Lions and businessMen ended in a tie, the donkeys
proved to be the best, Above, Wayne Schlegel is having little influence
