More than $30 million has been spent in support -of arthritis research and it is paying off. Arthritis is the broad, general name given to more than 115 types of rheumatic disease: Though most can be controlled, none can be cured. ucknow school band enjoys • concert tour to Sinicoe are By Heli4Mailitire • Eyerything was packed. The gas .tanks were full, theengines were revving and the count down was On. At 7.45 we were off. The blue and yellow buses became mere specks on the highway as we headed towards Listowel. The Lucknow School Concert Band had begun their annual trip. Listowel Public School greeted the hand with warm enthusiasm. The concert was • roughly the same format as the one at the annual Lucknow eoncert with ' lots of audience participation. • After this concert, the band moved on to • Elma Township School and then to East Oxford School in Woodstock for the final concert ofthe day. Later in the afternoon, the band arrived at the Minder Manor. Motel in Simcoe. After 4 everyone was situated, many people "hit" -• the tennis and raquetball courts, "pumped" some iron or swam some lengths. For the less energetic, the sauna, steamroom and whirlpool were more suitable. Following .a good night's 'sleep (?) and breakfast at. McDonalds, the band travelled to South Public School for a concert. For lunch they went to a mall in Simcoe. Here, anyone who used to doubt the existence of UFOs might have had a change of heart. This is mainly because of the invasion of the mall by four men in red helmets. Later at -Elgin Avenue Public School, once again these "creatures" made an appear- ance in the song, Empire Strikes Back. I think the appearance of these men was as shocking for the Principal they • captured as it was for the band members who hadn't seen Ken Irwin, Chris Irwin, Mike Murray and Steve Murray in the mall. That evening, the band went to a nice restaurant called Bolgers for supper. They returned to the motel' 'where a few unpre- pared swininiers hid a dip. After everyone ,was wide awakeon Thursday ntorning, they had no idea what an event filled day' they would have. The first concert was played in Port Dover at Doverwood Public School where they met some competition for their dancers. 'Louie" showed some of his moves and immediately became an idol of some of the younger girls in the band. Students .from thi School also4al'relynn Murray a little competition with. their feet. This Might sound like. a –breakciancing contest, but in this case it was more like breakiticking The Doverweod School treated the band to pizza and they also had a chance to see a video of their concert. I think it was almost good enough to be on "New Music". St. Joseph's. Public School was the next stop. After the concert there, they were offered a snack of cookies and a drink. • That evening for supper the band members .had another treat. They had cake at MCDonalds for Melissa Becker's birthday. Everyone behaved themselves and there was no cake left on •the wall. However, Mr. Cayley had trouble dishing out the cake so he had to use the shovel from the fun pail HE bought. Following this the band left for Port Dover again to play a concert in the park. Half of the band arrived there on time. The other half found themselves stranded on a street in • Simcoe with a bus that wouldn't move. Some wonderful joke telling kept everyone on the bus amused, before they eventually were picked up. In Port Dover, there was a very good turnout of people who came to hear the band concert in the park. On the last day of the trip, there were a few more weary eyes than there had been on the first day. Nevertheless, everyone was wide awake when they played the concert at Fairview Elementary in Brantford; Later band members went on a quick shopping an eating spree at a mall in Brantford. This mall also was, invaded by more band members buying hats. The final concert of the trip was played at Riverview Public School before the band started home. The trip was a great success and everyone had a terrific time. It can become very interesting when you start talking to people who think that the band members are brownies, that' they work in Zehrs or pronounce Lucknow Loose-i-wana. Appreciation goes out to Jack Sticklend and Art (Chico) Breckles for the excellent job they did driving the buses. The band also appreciates their garbage picker, Rosalea Cameron for keeping the buses clean. • Lucknow ,Segiffnel, Wednesday, May .41 1984—Page 4 Hospital Corporation Notice is hereby given that the Annual Meeting of- thwhighani and 'District Hospital Corporation will be held at the,.
