It was agreed to Time slot to be filled Continued from page 1 to prevent most of the school’s Grade 9 and 10 students from having an unnecessary “spare” period every day, another year-long course must be offered to fill that time slot. While a Christmas election was not of my choosing, I am now faced with the reality of a winter campaign. This obviously creates unique challenges but as always, the Huron-Bruce Liberal Team is prepared and ready for all eventualities. f'1at sa>d winter means snow and snow means difficult and often n dangerous driving conditions. With that in mind, in an effort to allow effective and timely snow clearing and unimpeded visibility for motorists, my campaign will be placing election signs in a manner that does not litter our roadways with political advertising. My campaign would be pleased to provide lawn signs, upon request, for private properties but we will only place road signs sparingly, in locations that do not in any way impact adversely on motorists and those who are attempting to clear our roads. have hot dinner meals at $10 and luncheon of soup/sandwiches and dessert at $6. The Huron-Perth Presbyterial fees of $110 are in and due for payment in January. Laura Barbour offered her home for our January meeting. The date is still to be determined. Williams agreed that may force the retention of a year-long format for Grade 9 and 10 English, but added some principals have suggested other courses — such as physical education — may be a better fit. Christmas dinner should leave you feeling stuffed, sleepy and satisfied, not sick to your stomach.

Signs are expected to be posted in Clinton, Wingham, and Walton although this is not finalized. “How we handle this event is going to mean a lot down the road,” Stewart said. “We are thinking of this as our one shot,” he added. “Although Campvention can’t return to Canada for another seven years, we may be seeing some people again through other organizations visiting in the future.” Stewart said he knows of other groups of around 200-300 campers planning on coming to Blyth in the summer also. “We are booked every weekend [in the summer] in 2006,” Herrfort said. She said she has been in discussions with an interested party about bringing a camping outfitters store to Blyth. “[Before July] would be a good time to set up business in Blyth,” she added. • Drippings produced during thawing may be contaminated. Since you can’t know for sure, play it safe by cleaning and disinfecting any surface touched by drippings. • If anything in your kitchen, including utensils, cutting boards, counters and dish clothes, has been in direct contact with raw poultry or its juices, clean them thoroughly before using again to prepare other foods. • The safest way to deal with stuffing is to cook it separately, either in its own oven dish, or on the stovetop.
