In addition, builders are being sought to try to get the mini-muse- urns constructed as quickly as possi- ble. "We know it will be hard with so many builders tied up in larger proj- ects," Roulston said. The first completed kiosk, con- structed to tell the story of the Blyth Greenway Project, will be erected as the displays can be completed and the unit can be delivered from Wroxeter where it was built by the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. It was a lovely spring day, 50 years ago when the former Fannie McLean of Morris Twp. and George Somers of Brussels were married. Rev. Fulton officiated at the May 31, 1952 ceremony, which was held at the farm of Jack and Mary Pennington. Attending the bride, who was a daughter of Roderick and Daisy McLean was her sister, Doris Stuart. The groom, a son of William and Verna Somers, was attended by Frank Alcock. Following a honeymoon trip to Niagara Falls, the newlyweds returned to the Brussels area, where Mr. Somers operated a 'repair shop. They raised five children Rodger (Dianne), Ross (Judy), Rick (Deb), Randy (Tammy) and Janice (Bill). Golden day Fannie and George Somers celebrated 50 years of mar- riage on Saturday, first at an open house tea in the after- noon, then with dinner and an overnight stay at Hessenland Country Inn with family and ciose friends.

Afterwards the couple was whisked away by family and close friends to the Hessenland Country Inn where they enjoyed dinner, an overnight stay and smor- gasbord breakfast before returning home, Sunday. Wingham and District Hospital Board of Governors is trying to look toward the future and figure out what they.want to do. The issue of creating a five-year plan for the hospital arose at last Thursday's meeting. "We still need to be masters of our fate," said chairperson Judith Gaunt. The hospital is currently working on recruiting more doctors as differ- ent Wingham physicians are visiting' university campuses and a CD-ROM about Wingham is being made to show to interested doctors. According to Wingham representa- tive Verna Steffler, building a five - year plan would mean thinking fur- ther into the future about what types of services the hospital could offer. "We've been drifting for a long, long time," Steffler said. Steffler said the hospital has been "flying by the seat of our pants" in recent times. She said she looks at other hospitals who are applying for grants to institute new services. "We don't need any capital projects because we don't know what the hell we're doing," Steffler said. Steffler said the hospital has to start planning or else they.are never going to get anywhere. "Don't tell me there isn't something we can do," She said. However, chief of staff Marie Gear disagreed. "The physicians pool you have will provide what services you have," Gear said. Gear also said that the board has to start looking at ways to keep the doc- Wingham hospital bd. discusses the future By Mark Nonkes Wingham Advance-Times rx.c> ENGAGEMENT BARBECUE for Lori Boyes and Mark Nolan Sat., June 1 Meal at 6 p.m. Tickets $10 For further information Contact 522-1523 tors they do have. "It's fine to talk about recruiting but we have to talk about retention," she said. • Gear suggested the board sit down with physicians and talk about what they like and what they are con- cerned about and then work on the concerns. "I think this issue is a good one, envisioning the future," said Margret Comack, vice-president and site administrator for Wingham and District hospital. The board will sit down for an evening and further discuss the future at an undetermined upcoming meet- ing.
