So. what did you find when the
snow disappeared last week?
Scientific

projects on micro-organisms. Second-place winner was Janneke Barton with her project on

Happy Gang learn about safe driving
As the years go by we realize the
things we always did as a matter of
course such as cleaning the house,
washing windows, gardening,
mowing the lawn, etc. take far more
effort. This aging thing creeps up on
one.
So, too, with driving. After a
number of years the act of driving a
car may seem to be second nature.
But, advanced years bring other
problems to safe travel. More traffic,
wider roads, distractions, speed can
be overwhelming to many.
Recognizing this the Happy Gang
Seniors of Londesborough invited
Sr. Const. Don Shropshall of the
Huron County OPP detachment to
speak to them at their meeting at the
Londesborough Community Hall on
NOTICE FOR ROAD CLOSING
THE CORPORATION OF THE
TOWNSHIP OF NORTH HURON
It can be a surprise to see just what
didn't get attended to before
last fall’s first snowfall. Personally,
I hate this dirty, grimy time of
year.
We missed the rain that was
supposed to wash away some of
that last week and settled
for a freshening of snow. At least
with snow that comes in April, we
can be assured it won’t stay around
long.
Perhaps if coffee cups had a
Wednesday, March 30. Vision
problems, hearing loss, slower
reaction time and less flexibility can
make what was once a pleasure
somewhat unsafe. During his
interesting talk the officer gave the
seniors a number of pointers for how
to make their travel safer.
Today’s seniors may have been
driving for 30, 40 or 50 years and Sr.
Const. Shropshall noted that much
about driving and cars has changed
in those years.
His talk was also a review of rules
of the road and driving etiquette. A
question-and-answer period was
most helpful to those in attendance
for clarifying points which may have
been causing some uncertainty on
the road. It sounds like an afternoon
“return for cash’’ like beer
cans/bottles our landscape would be
neater/cleaner.
It was promising to see some buds
poking through the mud andspotting
some snowdrops. And the snowbirds
are gradually making a reappearance
in our midst.
You may remember that the 2005
World Day of Prayer service which,
people around the world attended
the first Friday of March was
prepared by the women of Poland.
that would have benefitted all of us
regardless of our age.

Happy Gang group to Crime

Const. Shropshall coming to their

The theme of that service was Let
Your Light Shine. Saturday
the world lost a Polish humanitarian
who definitely let his light shine
for nearly 30 years - Pope John Paul
II.
Another very public death last
week, that of Terri Schiavo,
underlines once again the
need for all of us, young or
old, to have a power of attorney
and a living will. What are you
waiting for?

FROM LONDESBORO
Hit and run
in Huron E.
Huron OPP is investigating a
crash that took place just off of
Molesworth Line" in Huron East
March 29 at approximately 10 p.m.
An officer learned that people
inside the Molesworth Lanes
Bowling Alley heard a major racket
outside. Some of the occupants
exited the building to see a darker
older model Oldsmobile Delta 88 or
98 collide with a garage door of a
residence behind the bowling alley.
The vehicle after smashing the
garage door then reversed from the
wreckage and struck a parked silver
2004 Nissan S25 left parked behind
the bowling alley. The parked
vehicle received damage to the front
left driver’s side bumper and fender.
The driver then fled south with a
concerned citizen giving chase. The
victim lost the vehicle in the area of
Cardiff Road in Huron East, due to
the dangerous driving done by the
fleeing suspect.
Huron OPP is asking for
assistance. If you can help solve the
case call the local OPP or Crime
