Tom Williscraft, Huron Expositor publisher, was the Business Improvement Area's town crier Sunday shouting out the specials as the NA held its first pre -Christmas sale event. Novice tournament a positive experience for New Hamburg To the Editor On Sunday, November 18, the Novice House League team I coach, the New Hamburg Huskies, had the pleasure of participating in a hockey tournament in Seaforth. Although our team didn't do very well in the tournament losing both of our games we did however have a great time. I have been fortunate to have travelled and participated in many tournements over the past few years and can tell you that the people behind this tournament run a 1st class day of fun for the kids involved. Not only was the tournament well run, but everyone involved was very helpful and friendly. Everyone truly enjoyed the "shootout" which really was a nice break in the action to a long day. I only know of one contact name Greg O'Reilly who did a super job in running the event, however I know there were many others. I took the time to read some of the background in your front lobby at the arena of Mr. Peter Flanagan and can say I'm sure he would be extremley pleased knowing his name is associated with such a fun filled and well run event.

Grocery store man helps couple find foods for diabetic husband To the Editor: My husband Don was diagnosed with Type II diabetes a few months ago, and knowing that Rick Wood also has diabetes we approached him at the local grocery store regarding buying products that are sugar -free and low in carbohydrates. He told us of sugar -free ice cream, spreads, cookies and more and then went through the store and checked out all the products that they carry. He made a list of them and gave it to us. Rick was very helpful to us. November is diabetes awareness month. Please get your blood sugar checked and if it is high Dianne Wood, diabetes educator and Lorraine Devereaux, dietician at the hospital will give you lots of information.

Bluewater Public Works Manager Ross Fisher hopes to give contractor Ron Hopper the go-ahead to start the process of connecting to Well 4 in two or three weeks, after MOE's Certificate of Approval is received. Council hired Hopper to do the work for a quote of $46,092.18 (excluding engineering and unforeseen costs). Fisher said Well 1 will also be taken out of commission, reserviced and then put back on line so it and Well 4 will serve water to the entire community of Hensall. In a related matter, the municipality refused an offer from a Bayfield property owner to buy one of the municipality's well lots now used as a water station on Cameron Street that. will soon be defunct. Council decided to not sell any well lots until they decide what to do with other well lots that will be decommissioned. Board jobs could become obsolete before staff realizes From Page 4 through stressful times with their children having to travel for extra hours on buses to get to other schools. The Avon Maitland School Board representatives' jobs are going to be obsolete Not tolerating opposing view is wrong From Page 4 the board and that this in turn could result in a successful legal action by the board against the dissenting trustee, perhaps by some application of bad faith principles. It is very hard for me to fathom that a trustee, who was in some measure instrumental in causing a board to act according to the law, would be then punished by that same system of law. Intolerance of the dissenting view is an unacceptable position for any elected body to take.

Guess the Catholic boards know how to manage their finances better. C.B. Brown Egmondville • 1 1 • r THE HURON EXPOSITOR, November 21, 100141 Need To Store Something?
