HomeMy WebLinkAboutTimes-Advocate, 1981-07-22, Page 11Exciting week at junior playground The second week at the junior playground was both exciting and enjoyable. The members were quite enthusiastic and therefore made the program more successful. I'm sure many of the members learned many things about last week's theme. Sports. Good sportsmanship was one area of sports that was stressed last week and most members did show good sportsmanship. Plenty of games and other sports were enjoyed on the playground as well as crafts, songs and stories. Tuesday featured a Peanut Hunt. that was a nutty good time. Tuesday the members also made caterpillars in crafts. Sand castle building, a frog race and the making of Scary Harry's were three highlights of Wednesday. Thursday the members also enjoyed an exciting program. A rabbit race and tie dyeing, were two ac- tivities of the day. Thursday finished up with a freshie party. Friday was Olympic Day. As was said above, the members enjoyed all sorts of track and field events while competing against other countries. The members enjoyed themselves and had good fun and overall made sports week a success. The theme of this present week at the Exeter Lions junior playground is hillbilly week. This down country theme is aimed at having a lot of fun besides learning about their country neighbours and the difference between cows and steers. Highlights of the week in- clude swimming in the wading pool, farm animal visits. a magic show on Thursday and Friday's special event in the form of a hayride and farm visit and with tasty homemade ice cream to eat. So come out old and new for a fun filled week at either the Rec Centre or Vic- toria park from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. A TIRING GAME -- Mike Prevost tire portion of an obstacle course race Craig Saturday afternoon. • steps his way through the at Gala Days in Ailsa T -A photo PLAYGROUND HIGH JUMPER — Shawn Webster competes in the high jump event at Friday's Olympic program at the Ex - T -A photo eter playground.

PETER MARTIN CREDITON The Crediton Parks Board held a very successful even- ing on Saturday night. The Crediton Cowgirls were defeated by the CFPL Superstars. It was rumoured to be the first win for the Superstars this season. The Cowgirls went extra easy on the Viperstars due to their lack of victories. After the ballgame, many stayed to dance to the music of Spirit. in the pavilion. The proceeds from the dance go to help maintain the ball diamond and the lights in the park. All the teams should be gratefull that the parks board is able to operate the grounds without having to raise the price for the use of the lights etc. by each team.
