The S.W.E.E.P, workers from the Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority have once again enjoyed a very successful and productive summer, During the last few months the crews have undertaken a variety of projects both for area municipalities and the Con- servation Authority itself. Quite a bit of cleanup was carried out at the many con- servation areas in the watershed including beach cleanup at Port Blake, removal of old machinery and debris at the Clinton Con- servation Area, and general cleanups at Port Franks and Rock Glen. At the Bannockburn Wildlife Management Area a log and stone deflector was constructed to create a pool in order to en- courage fish to inhabit the area. Corduroy bridges were built across streams in the area, A nature trail was developed at the Parkhill Conservation Area, and trees were staked at Port Blake. Municipal projects included the building of steps to the beach at Stanley sideroad 10, and assisting in the development of the Crediton Community Park, by cleaning the area, tearing down the old sheds and salvaging much of the siding to be used later when the barn may be used as a picnic pavil ion. In the early summer the beach at Bayfield was given a cleanup of the collected winter debris. Work was done at Hillsgreen Cemetery and roadside cleanup and brushing was done in East Williams and Tuckersmith Townships. Many other jobs provided the workers with a very busy sum- mer, The technical portion of the program also undertook a number of projects which have been extremely successful, Throughout the summer Laurie Toffelmire a 19 year old student from Watford provided campers at the Parkhill Conservation Area with a good recreation program including games, films, hay rides, crafts and many other activities, Laurie also planned the very successful Parkhill Canoe races and assisted with much of the art work required by the Authority, Dave Sinclair, London, coor- dinated the Authority's Camp Sylvan Conservation School and led it to another successful year of operation. Dave also did quite a lot of outdoor education research during the summer, Blaine Stephenson, Varna, the forestry technician was busy doing an inventory of the trees at some of the conservation areas, as well as making recom- mendations for the smooth running of the Authority's nur- series. Blaine also assisted on the Bayfield River project being conducted by Jim Rowat of Seaforth. For the latter part of the summer Blaine assumed the duties of Senior Supervisor and coordinated the various crew projects. Mike Eyre from London also assisted Jim Rowat with the Bayfield River project and as Wildlife Technician he performed a number of tasks in the Ban- nockburn Wildlife Management Area. Here he supervised the construction of the log deflector and built brush piles and planted wildlife shrubs to encourage wildlife to inhabit the area. Inventories were conducted in several areas to determine the areas potential to support wildlife. Carolanne Doig, Seaforth, did much of the Authority's public relations work over the summer including giving tours, guided hikes, conservation talks and attending fairs, One of her largest projects was to design and prepare an exhibit in the Authority's trailer. The new exhibit has already appeared at a number of fairs and will be busy with the upcoming fall fairs. Anne Harrison, Monkton, was busy as S.W.E,E.P. secretary and assisted Carolanne Doig with many of her projects, To The Editor: Another Muscular Dystophy skate-a-thou is over and the knotted muscles, joints and blisters of not only us older firemen that skated but likely of a great percentage of those that skated Saturday in this fund raising event, I would like on behalf of the Exeter Fireman's Association to thank all those that did skate in the skate-a-thon for Muscular Dystophy and making it the success that it was. First you need skaters and then the staff for the hard work and time involved in setting a skate-a- thou into motion. The ones on the rec staff who voluntarily spend their time on skate rentals, looking after pledges, cruisers, booth attendants, clown acts, decorated arena, etc. Well, they were there, and as faithful a staff as can be found anywhere. To Larry, Bill and the rest of the staff a very sincere thanks. I would also like to thank the moms and dads who took time to come to the arena and watch their children skate and to tell the spectators who contributed close to $50 in the M.D. canisters placed at the arena. Again NOT enough can be said for all those who took part in this our 2nd annual skate-a-thou for Jim Rowat of Seaforth, assisted with much of the public relations. work, but his major summer project was to conduct a survey of the Lower ,Bayfield River and estimate its potential for recreation purposes, Muscular Dystrophy, the skating staff, parents and spectators accept again a very sincere thank you from all your Exeter Firemen and may next year be just as successful.
