be involved with planting projects,
and the MVCA will continue with
plans to plant trees and shrubs on
public lands along the three
streams. Stream -side landowners
can apply to have planting
completed on their properties by
contacting Chris` Hart, project co-
ordinator at the MVCA 335-3557.
Other tentative activities include
the Lions Ladies planting flowers,
shrubs and trees in the Hamilton
Street recreation area. The Nature
Club at the Public School is con-
sidering planting a wildflower
meadow on school property.
Anyone wishing further infor-
mation on the Greenway Project, or
wanting to donate time or money to
recreation improvements should
contact Councillor Lynn Peck at
528-3308. A public meeting will be
held in April to explain the project
and the schedule of activities
planned for 1994.
Junior citizens meet with trustees
JUNIOR CITIZENS
It was a moment for the adults to
be awed by the composure and
achievement of the youngsters.
Trustees and senior administrators
for the Bruce County Board of
Education met two of Ontario's
1993 Junior Citizens' at their
February meeting. Both of them are
Bruce County elementary school
students.
Ten -year-old Jeff Preston of
Northport Elementary and 13 -year-
old Christina Dudman of Bruce
Township Central were chosen from
117 candidates province -wide for
two of the 11 junior citizen awards.
Jeff smiled quietly as a letter was
read congratulating him and
thanking him for his work on the
Muscular Dystrophy campaign. He
had no trouble guessing the
sender's name. It was figure skater
Kurt Browning; who was on his
way to the Olympic skating events
in Lillehammer.
Jeff and Kurt worked together on
the MD campaign and poster. jt's
Jeff's second year on the job that
has given him contact with a wide
circle of celebrities.
"At school Jeff is just an ordinary
guy,". trustees were told. "Even
though he has reason to be proud
and go around' boasting about his
friendship with Kurt" and a long
list of prominent sports figures.
Jeff was cited for his "fighting
spirit" and "never give up attitude"
in his Junior Citizen nomination,
but he was modestin 'presenting the
board chair Barry Schmidt with one
of the MD posters.
"I hope you can find a place to
hang it," Jeff said as he rolled up to
Schmidt in his fire -engine red
wheelchair.
The poster features Jeff and . a
number of sports stars, and has
raised $100,000 for MD.
Schmidt promised to hang the
poster "right out here in the'
hallway"
Meanwhile, Christina Dudman
was full of "thank you" and
amazement at being invited to a
board meeting to get a lapel pin and
personal letter of congratulations.
'Christina's principal, Brian Bar-
rett, described her as "one of those

doing wonderful things without any
fanfare."
She's a provincially -ranked five
and 'ten -pin bowler, an ac-
complished swimmer, and plays the
organ. Christina also oliivs tenor
sax in her school band and writes.
music in her spare time.
"All these things very few people
know. about," Barrett said.
What came. to public attention was
Christina's cairn bravery in pulling
her grandparents and uncle from a
flaming car, after a collision on the
way home from a bowling event
last winter.
Christina had a broken nose' and
ankle, but immediately went to the
aid of her relatives.
"Had she not had the presence of
mind to remove these people, they
would have perished," Barrett said
as he 'described how • the car
exploded after Christina • had
everyone safely out.
Schmidt said it was "an honor to
have tw6 Junior Citizen winners
from our county." Trustees and
board officials beamed at their
young guests.
t
I was as if, in the face of all the
bad press young people get, they
knew:their students were good. But
the admiring, faces Tuesday . also
showed just how good some.. of
Bruce county's otherwise ordinary
young citizens are.
MARCH BREAK
Bruce county's 10,748 public
school .students will get a longer
March Break -this' , year, but the
Bruce County Board of Education
says the extra holiday won't mean
lost classroom time.
Trustees agreed, on Tuesday, Feb.
2 to move two professional activity
daysjp March: One day was added
to the beginning and one to the end
of the March. Break. The longer
March Break runs March 11-21
inclusive.
An earlier proposal from the
board would have tacked both so-
called "Rae Days" on,the end of the
holiday. Trustee Frank Eagleson
said elementary . teachers suggested
the new plan, and complimented
those teachers for "opening the
doors to discussion".
Students won't lose class time,
according .to 'trustees, because the
board is cancelling already
scheduled PA days to use as Rae
days. No • information has been
given -on which. of the . remaining
PA days for this school year have
been cancelled and which remain
,on the . calendar. Schools have
promised .to send that information.

on use of funding
WEST WAWANOSH - . This
municipality recently learned it was
eligible to receive $66,159 through
a Canada -Ontario infrastructure

jobs and economic growth in local
communities. However, in order to
take advantage of the' allocation, the
municipality ' must contribute
$33,080..
Council is inviting residents of
Dungannon to a meeting on Mar.
10 to discuss the :possibility' of
utilizing the funding under the joint
infrastructure program to install
drains/storm sewers in the hamlet.
The purpose of the meeting will be,
to determine the receptiveness of
the residents to such a proposal in
view of . the fact that the
• municipality must provide` one-third
of the funds.

tinue the practice of collecting a
