Young inventors to show ideas at Fair
Young inventors from across
Huron County will meet in Clinton
April 16 for the Huron County
Regional Science Fair.
The fair, to be held at the Clinton
Legion, is organized by local
volunteers and sanctioned by the
Youth Science Foundation (YSF).
A charitable, non-profit organ
ization, the YSF sponsors more
than 90 regional science fairs
which span the country, from
Wabush, Labrador in the East, to
Victoria, British Columbia in the
West and Yellowknife, Northwest
Territories in the North.
One of the most coveted prizes is
the Suncor Energy Award, which
entitles the winner to travel
all-expenses paid to a week-long
national Youth Symposium on
Invention in Toronto. The program
combines challenging ideas,
“hands-on” science and oppor
tunities to meet like-minded stu
dents from all over Canada. Other
prizes include cash awards and
trips to the Canada Wide Science
Fair. The students’ projects will be
on display to the public at a time to
be announced.
“Each and every one of us today
is the beneficiary of literally
millions of inventions and innova
tions,” said Tom Thomson, Presi
dent and Chief Executive Officer of
Suncor Inc.
Thomson noted that, “Despite
our small population, Canadians
have been remarkably productive
inventors. We hope the sympos
iumwill help the students learn
something of our inventive heri
tage and encourage them to apply
their talents to the challenges we
face today and in the future.”
2 accidents

County Road 20 just west of
Belgrave was the scene of two
separate automobile accidents in
late March, both of which sent a
person to hospital.
According to a spokesman for
the Wingham detachment of the
Ontario Provincial Police, Linda
Campbell ofRR 1, Belgrave was
eastbound on the county road
Sunday morning, March 27, when
she lost control of her car in heavy
slush, causing it to slide into the
ditch.
Mrs. Campbell was not injured,
buther nine-year-old son, Mat
thew, was taken by private auto
mobile to Wingham and District
Hospital, where he was treated for
minor injuries and released, police
say. Damage to the Campbell
vehicle was listed as severe.
In a separate incident in the late
evening of March 21, Harold Marr
of RR5, Wingham, was injured in a
second single-car accident on the
same stretch of road, police report.
The OPP say that Mr. Marr was
eastbound when he apparently fell
asleep at the wheel of his car,
crossed the road to strike the
northwestendofthe bridge and
slid into Belgrave creek.
