Seniors centre plans flea market September 6 BY GLORIA WORKMAN This is the second article in the series of monthly articles that the Wingham and Area Day Centre for the Homebound will be submitting to the Citizen.

If it weren’t for the volunteers, we wouldn’t be able to serve the number of seniors thatwedo. What is a volunteer?

If anyone in the Brussels area is interested in joining our force of dedicated volunteers as a driver for the cost of mileage, please give us a call at 357-1440. Let’s look back over the month of August. About 50 new plants were propagated at the beginning of the month. The seniors still don’t believe that you can grow plants in ziploc bags. The film, “It’s a Wonderful Life’’, show on August 7, was enjoyable and entertaining. A special thank you goes to those whogaveadonation. Theenter- tainment afternoon held during the week of Aug. 12 -14 was fantastic. A variety of local performers participated in making this a memorable experience. (Ask one of the seniors from the Wednesday group about “Cousin Clem”.) We appreciate all the time and energy that each and every one of the performers put into the show. The Wildlife Series provided by the Federation of Ontario Natura­ lists on Aug. 19 - 21, was enjoyed by all. The slides of birds and flowers brought back many memories. We came to the conclusion that the number of each species common to this area has dropped dramatically. The play “Another Season’s Promise’’ on Aug. 21 wasenter- Conestoga offers tuition free program Opening the path for adults into career choice, career develop­ ment, job training or a college education is the aim of Employ­ ment Preparation, a tuition-free program offered by Conestoga College starting Sept. 2.

It contains a mixture of learning opportunities in areas such as life skills, career choices, career de­ velopmentstrategies, study skills, communications, mathematics, sciences, work situation experi­ ence and basic computer literacy. It is flexible enough to be tailoredtoindividualneeds and goals, in order to increase partici­ pants’ skills and knowledge in preparation for employment, job training or a full-time college-level program. Depending upon the partici­ pant’s needs and goals, Employ­ ment Preparation may be complet­ ed in eight weeks (the initial period of identifying skills, interests and career direction) or may involve up to 44 additional weeks of specific skills learning preparation for the individual’s goals. Based upon the availability of enrolment space, entry into Em­ ployment Preparation is possible every eight weeks in Guelph, Stratford and Waterloo and every four weeks in Cambridge. The tuition-free aspect of the program is made possible by a grant from Ontario’s Ministry of Skills Development.

Many of our seniors compared the hardships faced by the farmer to the depression years. The play hit home, for many of our seniors, because at one time, many of them were farmers of Huron County. On August 26 and 27 the group viewed slides of Sri Lanka, taken several years ago by Pam Williams the director of the centre, during her stay there. On the 28th, 75 seniors from a centre in Kitchener came to visit. Elmer Umback of Lucknow will perform. Now for September! On Sept. 6, we are holding our annual Flea Market at the Wingham Armour­ ies. Tables can be rented by calling the centre. The proceeds from the table rentals will be channeled into the operation of the centre. Since most of the participants have not been fortunate enough to visit Expo ‘86, one of our volun­ teers is going to show slides on Sept. 11. Our next foot clinics will be held Sept. 3 and Sept. 18. This service is provided by Community Nursing Services for a $5 fee. Appoint­ ments can be made by calling the centre. On Sept. 17, Paul Weiten­ dorf of the Maitland Valley Conser­ vation Area is going to give a presentation on the various servic­ es they offer in the area. Please note that if you know of someone, who would benefit from attending the seniors centre, please do not hesitate to call with the referral at 357-1440 or drop in to the centre at the Wingham Armories Monday to Friday, 8:30 - 4:30 p.m. WEEKENDSPECIAL Long Stemmed Roses ' Various Colours $15 per dozen Orderahead soyou won’tbe disappointed DELIVERY AVAILABLE TOBRUSSELS&BLYTH LEWIS FLOWERS 135 Frances St. Wingham 357-3880 Description of Land [s] Sale of Land by Public Auction Municipal Tax Sales Act, 1984 CORPORATION OF THE COUNTY OF HURON Take Notice that the land[s] described below will be offered for sale by public auction at 10:00o'clock in the FORE noon on the 7th day of OCTOBER, 1986 at THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS COURT HOUSE, GODERICH, ONTARIO Minimum Bid$ (Set out the cancellation price as ofthefirstdayof advertising) Description of Land[s]Minimum Bid $ PCL. #7 TOWNSHIP OF ASHFIELD, COUNTY OF HURON PARTOF LOT 17 FRONT CONCESSION NORTH TOWN PLOT described as follows: Beginning at a point in the Northerly Limit of said Lot 17 at a distance of 5349 feet measure N 83° 53' 30” W thereon from the North easterly angle of said Lot THENCE S 40° 57' W a distance of 271.7 feet THENCE N83°53'30” W108 feet THENCE S15° 46' E 27.33 feet THENCE N83° 53' 30” W 169.81 feet to the point of commencement of the parcel described THENCE S11° 39' E 90.83 feet THENCE S 27° 20' E 316.07 feet THENCE S 84° 10' E 316.07 feet THENCE S84° 10' E 55.06feet THENCE N 7° 11' W 63.85 feet THENCE N 15° 46' W 311.94 feet THENCE N 84° 10' W 126.71 feettothe point of commencement Permising the East limit of Lot 17 has a bearing of N 5° 22' 25” W and all bearing herein are related thereto.
