Pancakes mark Craigs’ final day at Walton Inn Another week flies by and we are in the final week before the start of school. Many families have been busy shopping for school supplies, clothes or taking final day excursions with the kids. As bus drivers, we have had our “welcome back” meeting, were given our bus routes and completed our practise drive to familiarize ourselves with any new stops. Our trip planners extraordinaire have been busy again this past week exploring Bruce County. Rick and Margaret McInroy with Lillian Appleby and Pat Hunking were away for the day to Cargill. They spent the day learning about the Greenoch Swamp and went on a train ride around the block to view the workers’ homes. In the 1860s, there were five sawmills in the area and many houses were built to house them. They also stopped in at Margaret’s Mercantile, a lovely little store with handcrafted items, treats and snacks. Students run the visitors’ programs for the summer and then members of the Saugeen Conservation run the tours until Labour Day. An interesting point of history is that many who came to the area were Irish Catholic and many there were Protestants. So many of the buildings were divided, such as the post office; two entrances with a wall down the middle. The school was also divided, but this time, the upstairs was for one religion and the downstairs for the other. The foursome enjoyed learning about the area and the development of the Greenoch Swamp and Cargill. It was party time for the ladies’ group in Brussels as they celebrated the one August birthday. The large group gathered at JR’s to celebrate the special event of Nora Stephenson’s 90th birthday. Wishing birthday best wishes to Nora included Cora Alcock, Joan Bernard, Merle Cousins, Jean Davidson, Lois McCutcheon, Eleanor Stevenson, Esther McCutcheon, Betty Cardiff, Isabel Wheeler, Sandra Clark, Mary TenPas, Edna McLellan, Dona Knight, Jane Hall, Dale Chesher, Alice Marks, Sandra Cable and Grace, Val Nagels, Audrey Cardiff, Marcy Bremner, Betty Campbell, Betty McCutcheon and Bev Palmer. Happy birthday Nora. It was a lovely day for the wedding of Edward Glanville and Jessica McClure on Saturday. They were married at Egmondville United Church and the reception was held at Seaforth Legion. Edward is the son of Robert and Jackie Glanville of Walton. It was a beautiful wedding with the attendants dressed in a wine colour. A delicious dinner was enjoyed by all. Coming home from Alberta to attend the Glanville wedding were sister Joelle and Uncle Paul and Aunt Teresa and Meaghen. They were very glad to see daughter Erica, who has spent the last six weeks in Walton with her grandparents. Erica has enjoyed a fun visit with Lorne and Bonnie Glanville. The Walton Inn had its final day with Graeme and Helen on Friday. Graeme was on hand to whip up and serve his famous Walton pancakes. Everyone had a sample of pancake for a last taste of his pancakes. A good crowd enjoyed the morning fare, along with fruit and cheese tray and good conversation. Saturday morning breakfast at the Walton Inn was exactly the same as any Saturday morning. The new owners of the Inn were unable to be there, due to a death in their family. They will be away for their first week of ownership, so Graeme and Helen, will continue for another week as managers. Celebrating birthdays the past week were Terri Gulutzen, Pat Nolan, Bradley Shortreed, Blaine Hackwell, Cheryl Lee, Earl Pennington, Owen Dalton, Sarah Fraser, Brent Godkin, Sandra Zwep, Emmitt Shortreed and Stephen Ryan. Happy birthday to all.
