Bruce Family Coalition
On Sunday, August 28, rainy skies
cleared in time for the Bruce Riding Fami-
ly Coalition Party to hold its annual picnic
on the beach in Kincardine to enjoy the sun
and the sand. Unfortunately, the beaches
were closed to the swimmers, but' that
didn't seem to affect the spirits of the,
many adults and children who came.
After everyone had their fill of barbe-
qued hamburgers and hotdogs, it was time
for the games. The young, and some not so
young, participated in a water -balloon
throwing competition, a potatoe sack race,
and a three legged race. Everybody
deserved the prize of a cold ice cream and
later, some "F.C.P." cake. -
Riding president, Dr. Gary Bajurny, of
Walkerton, spoke on the history of the par-
ty, emphasing that it is the only truly pro-
life party in. Ontario. He explained that
while certain policies has been formed,

Christmas planned
The Lucknow Business Association met
September 7. Minutes of the previous
meeting and the treasurer's report were
read and approved before the business
portion of the meeting was attended to.
Business included discussion about the
Christmas party which has now been book-
ed for November 19. The dinner will be
catered to by the Super Scoop with music
provided by a disc -jockey. An ad will ap-
pear in the Sentinel when tickets are
available.
It was agreed by the members in atten-
dance to replace or repair three more of
the Christmas decorations which adorn
Lucknow streets. Similar replacement
work was carried out last year by the local
association.
Much discussion was entertained at the
meetin with regards to the Lucknow Craft
Festival. The Business Association would
like more restirctions on the crafts offered
for sale at the annual event. In particular
it should be stated, according to the
association, that the articles on display be
hand-crafted.
Members were also asked to give some
thought to financially supporting the newly
formed Lucknow Tourism organization.
The next meeting of the association is
scheduled for October 5.
