"They really have done an amazing job. I can't praise them enough," said Deputy - Mayor Bernie MacLellan at last week's council meeting. MacLellan said he and Mayor Joe Seili asked to tour the facility "because we wanted to know how our money was being spent." Huron East council agreed last November give $50,000 a year for two years towards renovations to the 25 -year- old clinic. Since then, the SCH trust, which took over management of the clinic and the hospital's 60 acres of agricultural land in March, has built a circular driveway at the entrance of the clinic, installed new carpeting and tiling throughout the centre, bought new furniture and examination tables, given the facility a new paint job and installed new window coverings and signing for the building. As well, it has created a meeting room for the family health team downstairs, replaced a non-functional water softener, cleaned the mechanical rooms, implemented a fire safety plan and locked up hazardous materials. Plans still include new roofing for the building, an assessment of the heating and cooling system and a new computer system for the medical centre that will handle the scheduling, billing and charts. "The building has been deteriorating as a result of aging and a lot of things had reached the end of their economic life," said SCH trust chair Ron Lavoie. Correspondents "We're trying to have a facility the community is proud of," he said during a phone interview last week. Seili told council that Lavoie and trust member Alf Ross are "miracle workers." "It's a 25 -year-old building but now it looks new again. It's a lot cleaner and brighter," he said. MacLellan said the circular driveway has made the centre much more accessible to patients and that doctors are giving the changes "their thumbs up." He added that while doctors were seeing 1,200 patients a month in January, those numbers have climbed to 2,000 since the doctors no longer have to worry about administering the building. "This was a good move for Huron East," said MacLellan. Seili agreed, adding "If we hadn't stepped up to the plate, we might not have gotten what we did with the family health team." Queensway residents enjoy fun and fitness outside on recent mild day Fun and Fitness started the week for residents at Queensway Nursing and Retirement residence in Hensall recently as they worked their way through the exercise routine. One mild day recnetly found the entire group doing their workout on the deck, basking in the sunny morning and light breeze. Monday afternoon the Hensall United church women provided assistance and prizes for residents at bingo. Tuesday morning, volunteer Edna Dietz assisted at breakfast group, offering coffee and conversation to the eight residents dining on pancakes, sausage, syrup, melons, juice, coffee and tea. Pastor Fred Darke of Queensway Hensall United Church led worship Tuesday afternoon with Belva Fuss as volunteer pianist. Marg Cole assisted residents Residents along with family members and several friends took part in a wonderful outing to Bayfield's Blue Harbour Restaurant on Wednesday, planned by Retirement Residence Director, Maxine Curry. The delicious meal combined with congenial company made for a very successful trip. Later in the afternoon, family council and Julie Keagan held their monthly meeting. Wednesday afternoon Andrea McGrath, daughter of Larry and Dianne McGrath, graduated April 7, 2005 from Ontario Police College, Aylmer. Her badge was proudly presented by her uncle, Bill McGrath, a retired officer with the Halton Regional Police. Andrea has accepted a position with the London Police Services.

Thursday evening diners had a special treat when Bill Gibson and Les Hills attended with their guests from England. Everyone had an interesting evening learning about England while enjoying their meal. Canada's gas prices all of a sudden don't seem so bad after hearing that people in England pay $2.30 a litre.
