Reading joins the list of top summer fun activities By Rhonda Vandeworp HURON PARK - For children, sum- malZ mer is the time to forget about books, teacheys and homework, and join their friends at the playground or communi- ty pool for hours of amusement. - Centralia College of Agriculture believes in the im- portance of keeping an interest in reading over the summer months, and has therefore sponsored a pro- gram, in conjunction with the Provincial government, which will combine reading -activities with tradition- al, outdoor summer fun. Jennifer MacGregor has been chosen by Centralia College to bring the Read Canada program to Huron, Perth, and North Middlesex Counties. She will be visiting specific playgrounds, swimming pools, campgrounds, day camps and libraries throughout July and August in order to provide a story hour for young children around the ages of four through sev- en. MacGregor says she will be doing most of the read- ing herself, but "welcomes the enthusiastic child to read aloud." The theme of the program is agriculture, and there- fore many of the stories will be based on farming and animals. MacGregor admits, however, that because young children still enjoy the traditional story book tale, those will also be included. Some specific dates for MacGregor's reading circle have already been established. She will be visiting: Exeter Pool at 10:45 a.m. on July 19, July 26, and August 2; Kirkton-Woodham Pool on Thursdays at 11 a.m. until the first week in August; and Hensa'.l Playground at 1 p.m. on July 29. Children will be able to find MacGregor and her reading circle at these locations sitting under a bright yellow beach umbrella.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING - TOWNSHIP OF BOSANQUET VILLAGE OF THEDFORD BOSANQUET REQUEST TO AMALGAMATE THEDFORD In May, 1990, the Township of Bosanquet passed a by-law initiating procedures under the Municipal Boundary Negotiations Act, 1981. Bo- sanquet proposed that the Village of Thedford be amalgamated into the Township. The Township Council stated that the provision of ser- vices would be more efficient if the Village was included with the Township. Bill 35, the Sarnia-Lambton Act was enacted on July 13, 1989. Section 34 of the Act provided that all Boundary Act Applications were vested with a Boundary Application Committee appointed by Lambton County Council. The County of Lambton Boundary Application Committee wishes to ensure that Lambton County municipalities are strong and fi- nancially viable, and responsive to the needs of their constituents and can adequately perform their legislated functions. The Committee held a public meeting on Thursday, July 19, 1990, as directed in Section 37(4) of Bill 35, in order to obtain information, com- ments and opinions regarding this application. Meetings have been held between the affected Councils and with the committee. To clarify the discussion and narrow the issues, on Janu- ary 31, 1991, the Committee issued a preliminary report recommend- ing amalgamation. Thedford Council is against amalgamation with Bo- sanquet. The Committee has prepared a draft of the final report setting out the details of the amalgamation, such as the effective date of amalgama- tion, the retention of the Thedford Hydro -Electric Commission, the es- tablishment of ward boundaries throughout the Township, the increase of Bosanquet council size to 6 Councillors plus a Mayor (to be effec- tive for an election to be held iri November 1992) and guarantees for existing Thedford staff. Copies of this Draft Report have ben available at the Municipal Offices of the Township of Bosanquet and the Village of Thedford and at the County of Lambton Offices in Wyoming since June 26. Under Section 37(5) of Bill 35, the Committee must hold a second pub- lic meeting to obtain submissions and comments from the public in re- spect of the contents of the Draft Report. Amendments may be made before the report is recommended to County Council for approval and is passed on to the Minister of Municipal Affairs for consideration. The second public meeting was held on Wednesday, July 3 at the Thedford-Bosanquet arena. Due to a power failure, the meeting was not completed and it will be reconvened on Wednesday, July 24 al 7:30 p.m. at the Thedford/Bosanquet arena.
