THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 2002. PAGE 15 .
United Church marks 125 years
In Ethel, 125 years ago, it was
most likely a time of hope and new
beginnings. Canada was about to
celebrate its 10th birthday as a new
nation. The area was alive with
potential and prosperity and bursting
at the seam's with growth as people
came and set down roots.
This Sunday, June 9, the Ethel
United Church will glance back over
the past as it marks the 125-year
anniversary of the church with a day
of worship and celebration.
For a community such as Ethel,
the United Church is an integral
thread in the historical fabric. The
most obvious point is that both the
church and the parsonage (the first
house east of the church) are two of
the good, solid historical structures
in town.
What cannot be seen, however is
the rich history the church holds in
the lives of some of the longtime
residents of Ethel. George Pearson's
thoughtful reflection illustrates one
of the important roles the Unifed
Grey Central's track and field day
was a success.
The first and second place winners
went to F. E. Madill on Thursday,
May 30.
The division winners for the Tyke
girls was Holly Barlow and for the
boys it was Kirk Bechard. For the
Atom girls, it was Ashley Sholdice
and Lynn Boyer and for the boys it
was Taylor Prior. Travis Zeigler was
outstanding in the Bantam boys
division, and Tamara Moser and
Rebecca Reesor were named
Bantam girls champs.
Even though the day was hot and
the competition was tough, Grey
athletes performed well. Ziegler had
an excellent day with a first in the
200m, a second in the 100m and a
third in the running long jump. The
Bantam Boys' relay team placed
first after Scott Phillips blew away
the field. Congratulations to
members Ziegler, Matt McClinchey,
Nathan Prior and Phillips.
Sasha Ruttan got a second in
Bantam Girls shot put, McClinchey
got third in Bantam boys triple jump
and Bechard got a third in running
long jump.
'The. Atom girls relay team,
comprised of members Tanya
Bechard, Cayli Hunt, Boyer and
Cheryl Cox, placed second and the
Atom boys relay team, Prior, Mike
Donkers, Kalem Hammermueller
and Mike Lefor got a third.
On Saturday, May 25 Brian
Burgess had a birthday.
On Tuesday, May .21, Grey's
Grade 6 class was fortunate enough
to attend an excellent collective play
authored and performed by Mrs.
Carol Oriold's Grade 11 drama class
at Listowel District Secondary
School. This innovative production
involved • all of the audience as
participants.
It focussed on decision making,
values and peer pressure..The Grade
6s took much away from the
production. The production made
them think about factors that
influence their lives and values
every day.
Getting over to the high school
and participating in the Grade 11's
production has also enthused many
students about all of the options that
will be available to them when they
get to high school. While - many
would like toparticipate in drama,
music and art, !the subject areas we,
had a chance to ask Mrs. Oriold
about, other students, were gazing
anxiously into the computer labs and
the many industrial art rooms passed
Church had in the community. "You
have to remember," Mr. Pearson
explaigs "that there was no -hockey,
no baseball, not even radio, really.
The church was the centre of the
community."
At one time there were elders from
the United Church who often visited
sick members of the community or
those who did not regularly attend
services.
Through the years, organizations
within the church like the Women's
Missionary Society, Women's
Society, Mission Band, Junior and
Senior choirs and. Young People's
groups were of great social and
spiritual importance.
The first wedding to be held in the
United Church in Ethel was that of
Jessie Pearson and George Joynt in
the late summer of 1943.
The second wedding, that of
longtime community-' members
George and Isabel Pearson, was in
1946.
The celebration service will begin
while walking through the tech
wing:
What a great learning experience
the Foundation for Improving
Education's fund provided for Mrs.
Mitchell's Grade 6 class.
June is shaping up to be a busy
month at Grey. The OPP came in on
June 4 to do the Bike and Blade
presentation for the JK-8s.
On June 5 it is the Friendship
Games at the Listowel District
Secondary School. June 6, Grade 1,
2 and 3s are going to the Wawanosh
Conservation Area.
Mr. Stretton has been busy
organizing the Grade 6 year-end
field trip. Along with Mr. Stretton's
Grade 6 class from Wingham,
Grey's Grade 6 class will be visiting
some native heritage sites near
Midland on June 6.
On June 7, the Grade 8 class is
going to The Lion King. The Grade
4/5s are going to the IMAX theatre
and then to the London's Children
Festival.
One of the field trip opportunities
that the Grade 6s missed out on this
yeir was the chance to attend the
Silver Birch Awards festivities in
Toronto. Held at the Milk
International Children's Festival at
Toronto's Harbourfront each year,
the Silver Birch Ceremony is
attended by Silver Birch authors and
readers.
About a thousand of the 40,000
Silver Birch participants get the
opportunity to attend this year.
While the ceremony was being
held in Toronto at noon on Thursday,
May 23, there were certain girls on
the playground at Grey who were
wondering which book was being
announced as the 2002 Silver Birch
Award winner. They got their
answer Friday afternoon. Mrs.
Mitchell received an e-mail from the
Ontario Library Association that
-announced the winner of the 2002
Silver Birch Award, but she kept it a
secret until the Silver Birch
assembly on Friday.
During the assembly, students
summarized the books for the Grade
7s in attendance, certificates were
distributed to all of the students to
recognize their excellent efforts in
reading and reaching the personal
goals they set for themselves, and
then the. big announcement was
made. /f / Just Had Two. Wings by
Virginia Frances Schwartz is• the
Silver Birch Award winner for 2002.
