The Foundation is an indepen­ dent fundraising organization that raises funds for conservation pro­ jects. In this particular instance the money will go towards the develop­ ment of improved educational faci­ lities at the Wawanosh Nature Centre. Classroom facilities at the Centre will be expanded to meet the needs for conservation education in the area. The Centre has been in operation for four years now and attracts a total of 5,000 students annually from the Counties of Huron, Perth, Wellington, and Bruce. It gives students the opportunity to learn about the natural environment and the need to manage natural resour­ ces. It is located on 400 acres along the Maitland River on Concession 6-7 of East Wawanosh Township. There are two instructors who provide programs for Grades from Kindergarten to 10. The centre is also open to the public for hiking, fishing, and cross-country skiing. Former Belgrave and Brussels hockey player, Steve Coultes has won admission to Cornell Univer­ sity in New York State on a four-year hockey scholarship. The 19-year;old Coultes who has been playing goalie for the St. Marys Junior B Lincolns for the past three seasons received con­ firmation on his admission to the Ivy League School on March 25, 1989. “I was kind of excited when I found out. I had been talking to Cornell a bit, but I was still waiting for confirmation”, said Mr. Coul­ tes. About 18,000 students attend the school which is well known for its high academic standards. Cornell, located in Ithaca, New York about one hour south of Syracuse is one of the schools in the Eastern Colle­ giate Athletic Conference. Others include Dartmouth, Harvard, R.P.I., St. Lawrence, Princeton, Vermont and Yale. Both Cornell and R.P.I. express­ ed an interest in Coultes. He plans to visit Cornell campus in a week’s time. Because the school is Ivy League they cannot offer a cull scholarship so Coultes is presently waiting for Man pleads guilty to illegal deer hunting On April 10, at Walkerton Pro­ vincial Offences Court, Martin Le- Breton of RR 1, Holyrood, Ontario, pleaded guilty to unlawful posses­ sion of deer under the Game and Fish Act and was fined $500. The venison was forfeited to the Crown. On November 6, 1988, Conserva­ tion Officers from Wingham Dis­ trict responded to a- report of an illegal deer kill at the residence of Mr. LeBreton in Kinloss Township, Bruce County. The deer, which had been cut up into eight pieces and hung in a shed, was seized. The damage to the rib cage indicated that the deer had been shot by a gun rather than a crossbow as the accused had originally stated. The Centre of Forensic Sciences in Toronto analyzed the wound and confirmed the officer’s suspicions Happenings from Hullett SCHOOL EDITORS: Kerrie Szusz and Lisa Finch SWIMMING LESSONS by Cheri Krysanowski On Tuesday, April 4, grades 4 and 5 began their first of eight swimming lessons.

CIRCUS by Erin Horbanuik On Wednesday, March 31, kin­ dergarten to grades three went to the Garden Brothers Circus in Kitchener. While they were there they saw elephants, acrobats, clowns, lions, tigers, dogs, jump­ ing through hoops and other things they all all had fun. A emeus CLOWN by Erin Horbanuik A circus clown came to the primary grades. Her name was Snuffy. While Snuffy was here she talked about clowns, played tricks and she made everyone laugh. They were all glad Snuffy came. We would like to thank Snuffy for coming. SPRING CONCERT On Tuesday, May 2 the annual Hullett Spring Concert will be held financial aid information to go through so he will know how much money he must put toward it. Coultes is completing Grade 13 at St. Marys DCVI and plans to major in engineering. He came to St. Mary’s in 1986-87 after playing Midget and Junior D with Brussels the year before. He was scouted at an under-17 summer camp by Line’s manager Angie Nicro. In 22 games this season Coultes had a 5.63 goals against average. He registered one shutout. In 1987-88 Coultes was named to the East All-Star Team and says he enjoyed his three years with the Lincolns and ‘‘was treated incredi­ bly well.” Nigro states ‘‘If you have 20 players with the outlook and attitude of Steve, we would have few problems. His work habits will make him a good goaltender. He works very, very hard at his game. He works hard at practice and always gives you his best in games. You never know where that may carry him ... maybe to the big leagues.” Mr. Coultes is the second son of Glenn and Dorothy Coultes of RR 5, Brussels. by finding a lead fragment in the wound area. The five-day rifle and shotgun season in southern Bruce County commenced on November 7, 1988. The deer population in the Wingham District and most of Ontario is rapidly expanding and we expect that illegal hunting activity will increase as well. The Ministry of Natural Re­ sources provides liberal hunting seasons for both gun and archery hunters. The deer populations must be protected at other times in order to sustain or increase the herds. If you are concerned about the deer population, as was the indivi­ dual who reported the illegal kill, any Natural Resources office of Conservation Officer would be glad to hear from you. at 7:30 in the gym. The program includes the band, senior choir, grades 1, 2, kindergarten and there will be a presentation of the operetta ‘‘Mirror, Mirror”. Every­ one is welcome. THE EREWHON THEATRE On Monday, April 10, actors from the Erewhon Theatre in Toronto came to Hullett to do a play called, ‘‘The Borrowers”. The students enjoyed it, and would like to thank them very much. by Christy Scott BRUSSELS CUBS................. The Brussels Cubs had their first opportunity to try their new ‘Kub Kar Rally’ track at their meeting on Monday, April 10. John Vanass of Cranbrook, whose son Darryl, is a member of the Cubs, built the 32-foot-long track out of materials donated by the Canadian Order of Foresters Court Woodbine M100. Each year the Brussels Cubs purchase a model car kit to build and use in the competitions held every April at Wingham. This year for the first time they will be able to host their own rallys. Plans are in progress for a proposed rally with the Blyth Cubs.
