• Apple Park
has top tubers
Well hello there friends. My rant of two
weeks ago regarding the poor state of the po-
tato has paid off. It was suggested I try Apple
Park for my potatoes and I'm glad I did. Thank
you to those who called with that advice.
Now, we best get our tea poured and I'm
not sure we can settle in. I'm in a hurry today
so you better grab onto my coattails and hang
on. Here we go.
The Dungannon Women's Institute cel-
ebrated their 95th anniversary November 10.
I will have all the details for you at our next
visit.
Remembrance Day has always held a spe-
cial place in my heart. This year like every
other, I will remember, and ask you to do so
as well. Given all that has been done for us - it
is the least we can do.
Debbie Bauer
This is your last reminder that the Down-
town Revitalization Project committee, head-
ed up by Kerri Herrfort, has set a date for the
"Xtreme Make -over Brainstorming Session".
They invite everyone from Grade 7 on up
from Dungannon and the surrounding com-
munity to participate by coming out to the Ag-
ricultural Hall on Thursday, Nov. 12. We are
to arrive at 6:45 p.m. with our sleeves rolled
up. We will be given dessert and refreshments
and the meeting will begin at 7 and go until 9
p.m. I for one am going to do my best to show
up. This committee has been working hard on
our behalf and I think we owe it to these fine
folks to support them in this effort. Coming up
with a logo will be primary on the agenda. For
more information on the Xtreme Make -over,
contact Pauli Sommer at 519-529-3227 or by
email at sommer@hurontel.on.ca.

cember 5. The Teen Team will nm their `Chil-

Teen Team or the Children's Store, give Su-
sanne Cutting a call at 519-529-7170.
The Dungannon Lions have been working

unteers to finish the project
