Suddenly there are so many things to see, so many places to go. And with the kids home from school you need plenty of variety in plates to go. With that in mind Village Squire this month took a look at a few places you might want to try to keep children entertained and perhaps inform them at the same time. All are inexpensive and all are in Western Ontario. Another inexpensive, informative and entertaining place to visit is the new Lambton County Historical Museum just south of Grand Bend. In this most modern of the region's museums one can discover much of the history common to the whole region and some things specific to the Lambton county area from early beachwear at Grand Bend to an early slaughter house. If you'd like to see some art this summer you might find your way to Gallery 96 in a little back alley just off Ontario Street to see the work of various Perth County and regional artists on display in this co-operative gallery. Wingham is having its Centennial Celebrations centred around the Civic Holiday this year and part of the celebration will be the last reunion of the CKNX Barn Dance gang from the legendary barn dance of the 1940's and 50's. Ever had the urge to run a marathon? Well a former Goderich township man has and last year competed in one of the world's most prestigious marathon events. Elaine Townshend tells his story. And if you have a yen for some exotic places, our travel column gives the first of a two-part tour of the far East by Mildred McAdam. And to tickle your palate our restaurant review deals with the delight of a visit to The Waterlot in New Hamburg.
