Members of the Exeter Optimist club are to be congratulated for the excellent activities they organized for local youngsters dur- ing Youth Appreciation Week. The big week to show that boys.and girls and teenagers are appreciated started with a dance on Friday night and concluded the following week with a scavenger hunt and prize presentations at the South Huron Ret Centre agricultural building Friday night: The scavenger hunt was divided into two age categories and the prizes were substantial. The Optimists in total provided $300 in cash prizes. In the six to 12 years of age division, the Exeter Girls Guides won first prize of $50 and second consisting of $40. These monies won by the Guides will eon tinue to be used for the extension of youth work. The articles which were to be collected in the scavenger hunt were very varied and to say the least unusual. Among the unusuai.items to be collected were a left hand nut, a bed pan, a cherry pitter, a 1950 licence plate, a goose -feather, a live praying mantis, a picture of a Clydesdale, a work boot, a Mexican stamp, a racoon's tail and a white porcelain door knob. Scavenger hunt chairman Dave Werrett reports that two of the teams actually came up with "41 of the 42 articles listed. The only thing they didn't come up with was ajive praying mantis. In- stead. the Optimists received a dead praying mantis and a picture of ,one. • The cherry pitter didn't prove as difficult as one might expect. One youngster brought in his grandmother's and several others found they could be purchased at a local store. Werrett says about 100 youngsters participated in the scavenger hunt and added, "Next to the bike rodeo this is the best and most popular event we have ever come up with". The Optimist chairman went on to say, "We as a group feel this type of fun filled event is much more satisfactorfor everyone con - 1104).,• Sports Spotlight by Ross Haugh cerned than just buying hoc key, soccer or baseball sweaters for local teams.
