churches lead the service in
a very capable fashion. To
see our youth perform so
well gives us complete
confidence that our
community is going to be in
good hands for many years
to come.
Add the choir members
who came from far and
wide, to local musicians on
keyboard, trumpet,
percussion and fiddles and
you have hymns and
anthems pleasing to all
ears.
The final touch was guest
speaker, Eleanor Wood of
Troy, Ont. whose message,
"Gone Fishing," gave us
much to think about when
presented with such
enthusiasm, lots of humour
and a sincere belief that God
put us here to work, to
dream and to relax so that
we can enjoy the blessings
which enter our lives every
day.
For the Worship Service
Committee, it was a blessing
to work with all of the above

came together to provide a

in beautification of downtown
To the Editor,
I want to congratulate all
those involved in the recent
beautification of Seaforth's
heritage Main Street.
The new metalwork plant
hangers are unique and we
are very fortunate to have
such a talented artist as Jim
Dawe living and creating in
our community.
It is heartening to see that
his vision is shared by both
the BIA and the Huron
East/Seaforth Community
Development Trust which
jointly funded this project.
The hangers and baskets
brimming with colourful
flowers bring beauty to Main
Street. An attractive
downtown welcomes visitors
and visitors bring their
shopping dollars to our local
businesses.
Everyone wins!
Sincerely,

Property owners should consider fencing
in temporary pools, says building inspector
By Jason MIddleton
Expositor Staff
As more and more
temporary pools "come put
of the woodwork," Huron
East's building inspector said
he's concerned with the
number of them without
fencing.
Paul Josling said that
although Huron East council
decided last year that the
temporary pools do not need
a building permit, he
suggested that pool owners
should get a fence.
Josling explained that
because the pools are not
permanent they do not fall
under the bylaw and are not
enforced.
"I've talked to several

Sporting equipment,
welding equipment and other
tools, valued at a total of
more than $12,000, were
stolen from a garage just off
of Third Street in Huron East
sometime in the 10 days
before July 26.
Stolen from the garage
were a set of King Cobra
golf clubs with bag, Taylor -
made drivers, a set of Titleist
irons, two ultra. one orange
crush and one Easton
baseball hats and three hall
gloves.
Also stolen were one set of
Oxy -Acetylene tanks and
torches. Mig welder, helmet,
Master craft miter saw. auto
scanner, wrenches, Shop -
vac, a drill. a 3/8 -inch 12 -
volt impact gun and a
chainsaw.
As well. a Yamaha
receiver, a DVD player and a
Panasonic surround sound
system were also taken.
Anyone with related
information is asked to call
the Huron OPP or Crime
Stoppers.

other municipalities and
that's the route they're taking
as well," Josling said.
Last summer, Josling said
council noticed pools were
popping up across the
municipality.
"We just couldn't keep up
with them," said Josling,
adding that a number of the
pools could pop up over the
weekend. "They are just
springing up."
According to Josling, a
permit costing $50 for an
above ground pool and $100
for an inground pool, is
required when they are
installed.
Also, a five foot, non -
climbable, self-closing, self -
latching fence must be
erected for permanent pools.
Josling recommended that
owners of the temporary
pools install the same type of
fence but added it was only a
recommendation.
"For your own safety and
liability get them fenced,"
Josling said. "A fence is
really inexpensive, when you
consider a child's life."
"I agree a fence is maybe
expensive, but it's still the
best route," he said. "Protect
our children, protect our
future."
Josling said that the bylaw
enforcement officers in
Huron East keep an eye out
for permanent pools without
fencing, but only the
building inspector can tell
property owners to install a
fence.
So far this year, Josling
said that he has had a few
calls from people wanting to
know if they need a building
permit for the temporary
pools and people
complaining that fences
should have to surround
them.
Prices on the temporary
pools run from $50 — for a
pool half a metre deep — to
$1,000 — for a pool just over
a metre deep.
"They are really
inexpensive pools," Josling
said.
