which may be withdrawn if the
owner has a change of the heart.
Where permission is not granted,
the trail must detour around that
section. Road allOwances and
public lands are also involved.
The responsibilities of the
Association don't end with the
construction of the trail, however.
Members inspect the trail to
repair damage, if any, and to
clean up any debris left by
unthinking users, and also
endeavour to teach users proper

important rules, of course, are to
stick to the-trail, since it is often
on private land, to leave no
garbage, and to do no harm to.
the environment.
As Mr. Hoernig reported, the
first year's work has resulted in
three excellent and scenic
sections, to provide good hiking,
snowshoeing and cross country
skiing for ' outdoor enthusiasts.
Indeed;- many hikers have already
enjoyed these sections.
Trail Construction Director, Bill
Wisser reported on the' actual
trail construction. Many local
members of all ages - from
members of the G.D.C.I.'s'
"Outers" , under John
Smallwood, to members whose
vigour and enthusiasm belie their
age, gave, the trail construction
great momentum. They trimmed
overhanging branches, ' painted
blazes, built steps and bridges,
and reported "It was fun - I'll
come again."
Sec. Treas. Jean Knight
outlined the Assoc.'s financial
position, and then the new
officers were elected.
Executive Officers are elected
for a two year term. Those in their
second year are Chairman Heinz
Hoernig, Secretary-Treasurer
Jean Knight, and Director in
charge of Trail Construction and
Maintenance, Bill Wisser. First
Year officers are the Vice
Chairman Jim Bishop and
Landowner , R elations Director,
Maurice Wilkinson. Two
positions, those of Club Activity
Director, and Public Relations
Director are yet to be filled.
Ideas put forth by Nick Hill ,
concerning the best ways of
extending the trail as far as
possible in the next year, were
then discussed at length.
Comments and questions, from
the floor showed an abundance of
interest in the Trail's extension
and success.
With the business portion
concluded everyone shared in, a
combination coffee, cookie,
conversation and leg-stretch
break. Then, thus refreshed, they
settled down to view an excellent
film about the Bruce Trail called
"Among Other Things".
,All members and hikers
expressed deep appreciation for
the permission given through the
generosity of the many land-
owners already involved. They
are . truly unselfish, public-
spirited people. Because of them,
there will be many healthy, happy
hikers in Huron County. May all
live up to their trust!--
