Fundraiser for Nature Centre April 15 The Maitland Conversation Foundation will hold a fund-raising dinner on April 15 at the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Cen­ tre in Brussels, to benefit the development of improved conser­ vation education facilities at the Wawanosh Nature Centre. The evening will include a roast beef dinner, entertainment and an auction and raffle. Everyone is welcome to attend. Proceeds from the event will be put toward improvements to class­ room facilities at the Wawanosh Nature Centre, a conservation edu­ cation facility located in East Wawanosh Township. “These facilities are being ex­ panded to meet the need for conservation education in our area,” said Vince Judge, chairman of the Conservation Foundation. “Unfortunately grants from the Provincial Government do not cover all of the development costs.” The centre has been operating for four years and now attracts a total of 5,000 students annually from Huron, Perth, Bruce and Wellington and Counties. The cen­ tre provides the opportunity for students to learn about the natural environment and the need to manage natural resources such as soil, water, forests and wildlife. Wawanosh is located on a 400-acre property along the Maitland River on Con. 6-7 of East Wawanosh Township. Two instructors work at the centre and provide programs to Kindergarten through Grade 10. The nature centre property is also open to the public for hiking, fishing and cross-country skiing. Approximately $13,000 is needed to finish the improvements current­ ly being completed at the centre by the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. The Conservation Foun­ dation hopes to raise several thou­ sand dollars through the fund-rais­ ing dinner. Local businesses will be asked to support the Nature Centre through the donation of raffle and auction items. Tickets to the dinner and infor­ mation on how local businesses can support this event are available by calling 335-3557. Grade 7/8 students at Brussels Public School sold the most maga­ zines during this year’s campaign. Here one of the students helps Lou Donders of the MacLean Hunter Quality Services Program prepare their incentive prize: a six metre sundae. Each student enjoyed about one-half a litre of ice cream. 4-Hers visit Spinrite On March 27 the Brussels I 4H club left at 9:30 for Spinrite Yams, located in Listowel for a tour. Spinrite officials gave the girls a general rundown of their past history. A textile factory was once located there but, they went under due to bankruptcy. This then became the location for Spinrite Yarns. Spinrite exports to the U.S. They receive their materials from New Zealand, Japan and other coun­ tries. Their machinery comes from Switzerland, East and West Ger­ many. Canada doesn’t make the machinery. They took the members on through the plant and showed what happens to the wool from the time it enters to the time it leaves. Members then went to the outlet store on the main street of Lis­ towel. Some bought material for their projects. Members returned home and Marianne Miners, a local spinner came and showed spinning. She has been spinning for three years. She prefers to spin the raw wool. She showed different ways of spinning, different varieties of wool and garments she has made. Members closed the meeting after deciding that the next meet­ ing would be April 3. Other clubs attending were Ethel and Markdale I and 2. Meeting 5 had been held at Kathy Bridges house, with four members in attendance. Members discussed their achievement pro­ gram which was the tour at Spinrite Yarns. Members read meeting 5 notes and did the quiz. They continued knitting and worked on their knitting problems. They clos­ ed the meeting in the usual manner. (ft(ft PROO OF U S A CANAOA FANCY .ANJOU PEARS AYLMER KETCHUP nitre btl.
