Arena sale
big success
Over $8,4400 was raised at the
auction sale in the old Hensall
arena Saturday and donated to
the fund for the new arena and
community centre,
A large crowd attended, in
spite of heavy rain. Everything
was sold.
The auctioneer sold used
building materials, stripped from
the interior of the old arena, and
an assortment of furniture and
odds and ends collected by the
Curling Club. The remainder of
the old building is to be pulled
down this week. Work has
already begun on the new arena
and community centre just south
of it.
While the auction was in
progress, the United Church
Women held a bake sale at the
north end of the building. They
had intended to occupy the
pavilion in the park, but were
forced inside by the rain, Their
sales amounted to over $210,
which was donated to the arena
fund. There will be more, in the
form of cash donations by those
who did not bake for the sale.
A skeet shoot, scheduled for the
afternoon, had to be cancelled
because of the downpour,
On Sunday skies cleared in
time for the Legion's bike-a-thon,
also designed to raise funds for
the new arena. Between 60 and 70
took part. Pledges were
estimated at about $3,000,

Seniors enjoy,
bus trip north
Out of a wet, rainy and Windy
week Hensall Senior Citizens
chose about the best day when
they set out for Collingwood by
bus on Tuesday September 27.
The weather man co-operated,
turning off the rain every time
they left the bus.
The group visited the potteries,
and 'elsewhere watched candy
canes being made. Collingwood
will stand out in their minds as
the place where it didn't rain one
Tuesday in September 1977.
The building and fund raising committees for
the new Hensall and District Community Cen-
tre would like to thank all the organizations
and individuals of Hensall and district for mak- '
ing our Hensall Harvest weekend such a
success.
