PEOPLE AROUND WALTON By Jo-Ann McDonald Call 887-6570 13 had a great time and heard some great music. Many households will seem extra quiet with the university or college kids off to school.

The first week of school is over and things are getting worked out on the busing. With the integration of junior and senior kindergarten, it takes awhile to get the bugs out. I have some new little ones to start yet but basically my bus load is the same. Eagerly awaiting their first day are Katelynn Becker, Jacob Gulutzen, and Emma Taylor. They grow up so fast. Welcoming a new little one on Walton Road are Jeff and Sara Grobbink. They have a wee son, named Jack Jeffrey to keep daughter Lily company. Congrats to the parents and grandparents Henry and Marianna. Walton was just abounding with traffic on the weekend.
