Yippee! Yahoo! School is out! The
summer is here and ready to offer

weeks at camp or camping — ah the
joys of summer.

the things you dream of — ice cream
On June 19 at 11 p.m. a report was
received about an attempted theft of
a truck in Brussels on Industrial
Road.
The victim told police that a short
time before he came outside and saw
two youths standing near his truck.
The two youths upon seeing the man
gave him some story and they
left.
He then checked his truck and
found that an attempt had been made
for supper, sleeping under the stars%
and just daydreaming with friends.
Of course do all the reading that is
necessary to make the summer good.
Take the kids in your life, relax and
let them remind you of the role that
summer is to play in our lives.
Enjoy!

If Alma Watson looks a little
weary this week it's because she had
relative drop-in centre all weekend.
Sons of Jean and Reg, Barry, Bert
and Joe, showed up from Florida,
Arizona and Toronto as well as other
friends and family from the Toronto
area. There was lots of good chatter
and laughter with a family
connection.
Be sure to take a slow stroll
through the village and enjoy all the
blooming trees, pretty flowerbeds
and healthy yards. It's time for all
the hard work to be appreciated.
Enjoy Canada Day, and if you're
