Sharon Freeman, With your help the parent council can provide extra opportunities for our children, and that is something we all want. 1 encourage you to partake in this event, whether it be by attending, donating to the silent auction, or giving any extra coats,etc. for the swap so everyone will be warm this winter! Our children are one of our most important assets in this community, and as we near the season of Thanksgiving I am truly thankful for dozens of Yorks and New Yorks, New Amsterdams. Berlins and in Huron County. Dungannon, Belfast, Brussels and more. At least the founders of York. Ontario came to their senses and renamed it Toronto. The most sensible name for Drummond Street would be to lie it with another founder of Blyth who worked closely with Drummond and planning and helping with UCW meetings, purchasing church supplies, cleaning flowerbeds, acting as the clerk of session and working on the church archives. Baan and Seaforth TD Canada Trust manager Stephan Foster presented Duff's United Church minister Joan Tuchlinsky with the cheque.

Sincerely, Dawn Hastings, BPS Parent Council Member. rename it Kelly Street as local historian Janis Vodden proposed. Regrettably the powers that be, in Wingham, decided on the name of Brechen. I just hope that when Sunset Drive is renamed they vtfill come up with a name more relevant to Blyth history or will it be named Rover after Drummond's dog? Adrian Vos.
