Times Advocate, 1989-06-21, Page 14J EMAND Clandeboye WI tours Exeter CLANDEBOYE - The June meet- ing of the Clandeboye Women's In- stitute took us on a tour around Ex- eter, arranged by Velma Hardy, convener or Canadian Industries. The first stop was "Northlander In- dustries, Mobile Housing", where we saw mobile homes being built from start to finish. A drive around Exeter to see many new homes that have been built recently, tells us the building• industry is busy. Next stop was the "Three AAA" Restaurant, where it. is plain to see the "Food Industry" is a busy concern. Fourteen W.I. members and two visitors enjoyed lunch together in a private dining room. - Mrs. Wilmer Scott was presented with a bouquet of fresh flowers in honour of her 75th birthday and as a member of the Clandeboye Wom- en's Institute for 53 years. Congrat- ulations Mary! A short meeting was held follow- ing the meal. The roll call, "Name a product, produced in Canada that we use every day." Mary Scott gave the report of the District Annual and also reminded the members of the County Rally at Poplar Hill on July 18 and the Tweedsmuir History Curator's workshop at Straffordville on Au- gust 8. The Institute members arc attend- ing the Huron Country Playhouse, on August 16, to see the musical, "The King and I". The meeting completed, we had one more industry still to visit, "The Sugar and Spice" chocolate factory on Highway 83 . west. A very interesting and tempting place to visit. Very few left without pur- chasing some sweets. As we journeyed home, some of our members stopped at Rundle's Strawberry Patch arid picked a Lucan CWL to buy signs couple of boxes of berries as this Ontario industry was making it's first appearance this year. The "Mystery Tour" enjoyed with the Lucan Seniors is no longer a 'mystery. With Hazel Cunningham as convener and Peter McNaughton as bus driver and tour guide, we left Lucan at 8:30 a.m. and journeyed through the town of St. Marys, viewing the restored Stone build- ings, such as the "Opera House", Train Station, etc. On through Tavistock and Shakespeare to Kitchener for a tour around there, then on to Elmira for an hour of browsing at the Bronx village, before a delicious dinner at the "Stone Crock". An hour's drive around the Mennonite countryside, LUCAN - The Lucan C.W.L. de- cided to purchase sign(s) to be put on the Service Clubs' sign(s) at the • entrance(s) to Lucan, to let visitors and residents know that there is in ' fact a C.W.L. in the community.

Pot -luck dinner, which was post- poned from June is to be held on September 10, 1989. Mrs. Sue Barr is to be the speaker giving us the highlights of her recent trip to Ban- gladesh, with her adopted daughter from that country, and illustrating her talk with slides.

We surely admired with envy; their beautiful, well -kept vegetable gardens. A 45 -minute stop at St. Jacobs to browse through the many shops in the silos, then homeward bound through St. Clemens, Cross Hill, Gad's Hill and a tote along the Avon in Stratford, returning to Lu - can soon after five.
