PAGE 2. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2002.
Well what will we watch on
television now? It's been pretty neat
being entertained this past two
weeks by the Olympians. Each of us
has a favourite moment that we'll
savour for a long, long time — well,
at least four years. At this end of the
country Sunday at suppertime we
had horns blowing and Canadian
flags flying as we cheered the golden
moment with our heroes — the
Canadian hockey team.
The 401 was a sea of red and white
as car owners were caught in the
moment and proudly unfurled their
Canadian flags as they drove about
their lives honouring the Canadian
gold.
My brother, Jim and family were
in the area at a public school curling
tournament in Chesley and- report
that on the trip back to Hallville after
four days of curling, the flags were a
terrific way to end a weekend of well
organized sports for them. Schools
from this area that were part of the
84-team roster were Listowel,
Wingham, Seaforth and Clinton.

Well, another month has flown by
at the Brussels Legion and the
February volunteers did a great job.
Comrade Keith Mulvey is
organizing the new group of
volunteers and I'm sure he will have
no trouble getting help from Gord
Finch, Pete Exel, Dianne Machan,
Max Demaray, John Lowe, Doug
Sholdice, Allyson Cardiff, Lyle
Brothers, Calvin Semple and Cathy
Burkholder.
The Friday night supper of roast
beef was just delicious. This week is
ham and scalloped potatoes.
The Ladies Auxiliary served
dinner to the dairy producers last
Friday afternoon. Thanks to their
helpers and Comrades Helen and
Mabel for their outstanding job well
done. •
The ladies still have meat pies
available. Talk to them or drop into
the Branch after 4 p.m.
Comrades Rick McDonald and
Julie Harrison attended the financial
seminar held in Hanover on
Saturday.
Last week's lucky membership
winner was Adam Smith.
Comrade Jean Little is home from
Seaforth hospital and is now at
Huronlea. We hope she enjoys her
new home.
As you're reading this paper today,
Wednesday, make plans to come to
the Legion tonight, to hear the area
public speaking competition.
Children from Brussels and Grey
Public School, who have earned the
opportunity to advance are speaking
at 7:30 p.m.
Please be in your seats by 7:15
p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend
and listen to our talented children of
the area. The winners from tonight's
competition will advance to the
Zone Competition on Sunday at
Wingham.
It's only a couple of months until it
will be elections at the Branch again.
As is the usual plea, we need more
people to become involved in the
That's a lot of pre-teens in one spot.
You'll want to go to the Legion on
Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. That's when
the semi-finalists from the schools
present their hard work and effort in
the speeches.
World Day of Prayer is at the
United Church at 7:30 p.m. on
Friday. A time to share, that started
in 1922 and continues to be observed
in 170 countries worldwide. Rather
humbling isn't it.
Hockey is still in full swing but the
weather of the past few days is
encouraging the bikers and
skateboarders to. get active as well. It
sure doesn't feel like February.
Farewell Kang. Best of luck in
your new venture in Waterloo and
thanks for 24 years of service to our
village. We've got your number
when we need more pills.
We're still in flu and cold season
so wash your hands, wash your
hands, WASH YOUR HANDS. It's
still the simplest, cheapest and most
effective way to keep germs where
they should be — down the drain.
Stay healthy..
Hooray for the Brussels PeeWee
Rep hockey team for capturing the
WOAA title. This is the first time in
a long timt_ , perhaps even forever,
that we've seen an all-Ontario
match-up.
So come out and root for the home
squad on Friday night at 7:30 p.m. at
the arena, and acknowledge their
success.
Bye now, Betty G. W.
running of the Branch.
There is a core group of about 10.
If more people would step forward
and stand on a committee, it would
make things so much easier.
The next general meeting is
Thursday, Feb. 28 at 7 p.m. and we
need to see a lot more members out
to these meetings.
