FROM BRUSSELS Lee at Huronlea Resident tells of summer fun By Lee Chesterfield Another summer nearly gone and while it wasn’t the best of summers weatherwise, it certainly was a busy one for residents of Huronlea. The highlights of August had to be the Disc d'Orleans boat cruise and the family potluck supper. First the boat cruise. We started out early in the morning and drove to Sarnia for the noon cruise. It was a cool day out, a good time was had by all and we returned home with pleasant memories. Lots of film was used and we will treasure our pic­ tures of a memorable day. The family potluck was a great success with a wonderful turnout and the food was sinfully delightful. The Saints group entertained us that afternoon and in the evening after the supper the Audibly Awesome sang up a storm. There were a good many parties for Shirley Wood to say goodbye and wish her the best. We welcome Muriel Taylor as our new secretary. Muriel has had com­ puter training and office experience. She has lived in the Belgrave area most of her life and she feels this will assist her in this new challenge. All of us here at Huronlea will try to assist her in any way we can. Bon voyage, Shirley!
