Along with over 2,000 Bayfield Bead Sturgeon by (moven Pemberton ,ancakes, the crowd also lobbied up pounds of ausage and bacon, several ;allons of Bayfield maple yrup and drank more coffee Ind choclate milk than you ould count. Breakfast chairman, Lion :teve Shanahan said all this ranslates into a gross take if over $1200.,the profits of which will go towards community projects. The crowd, which was continuous throughout, kept the 17 Lions working at the event, busy people for a few hours. Thanks goes out to the helpers and all the people that attended, in making it another success. Looking down the Lion's calendar we see that there is another breakfast scheduled for Sunday, August 31, and coming up on Friday July 25 is the annual LionsFrolicand parade featuring an ex- panded parade and game this year. Recreation meeting The recreation. committee held a short meeting with five members attending last Wednesday evening. The main topic of discussion was the delivery and placement of the two new loads of stonedust which have been received, one at the diamond in the agricultural grounds, and one at the diamond in Clan Gregor Square which was in much need of repair. Other topics up for discussion included the upcoming men's slo-pitch tournament later this summer in Bayfield, and picking the stones from the soccer field so the teams can return to Bayfield to play. A full meeting of the committee will be called in several weeks to finalize the schedule of fund raising events for the summer season and to institute the organization of a minor hockey association for the 1980-81 season. This week in sports In men's slo-pitch last week, the Bayfield Knighthawks picked up their 8th win of the season against one defeat as they trounced the Zurich Cobras 17-9 in Zurich. The Thursday night game saw the Knighthawks pick up yet another victory as they DILIGENT CAR WASHERS — Members of the St. Peter's Lutheran Church youth group held a car wash Saturday. Performing the cleaning chores on this vehicle were Vicki Schroeder. and Karen Steinbach. Staff photo ns breakfast bombed the Bayview Blue Bombers 21-8 at the Bayfield Diamond, to remain atop the South Huron slo-pitch league. The Wednesday evening game between the Flyers and Eagles was postponed because the Zurich team was unable to raise the necessary contingent of ball pluyers needed for the game. No doubt they were better oc- cupied elsewhere. The Flyers, who are still reeling from losing their first 8 starts of the season, have named Steve Shanahan (former star -player), as assistant coach to help get them flying. The Bayfield Babes of the Blue Water ladies slo-pitch league continued their winning ways on Tuesday night at Bayfield, as they downed the cellar dwelling Blue Shadows by a 12-6 score. The Wednesday night con- test in Zurich sawthe Varna ladies scramble back into second place by handing the Stanley Stars an 8-6 loss. Round and about the village Mr. and Mrs. John Oates, and son Jim, Kitchener, are currently spending another season of summer holidays at their village retreat. The Oates family have been making Bayfield their summer home since 1925. Did you know that part of the schooner "Malta" still remains on the beach at the end of Delevan Street. Most of the time it is covered by sand but every so often part of the hull is visible. Mrs. Ethel Knight has returned to her village home, after spending the past several weeks in Toronto. Ian and Barb (Graham) Scott of Surrey, British Columbia, are spending a couple of weeks holidays at the home of Pat and Wyn Graham her parents. How was the trip from Surrey to Bayfield? Well from the time they left home (in B.C.) until they reached "the Soo", they only drove a 20 mile stretch that it wasn't raining. In conclusion, I guess it's safe to say the trip was wet, but than again our Bayfield weather hasn't been that great either! Art and Mary Latimer, and pal Scamper are spending a few days in Bayfield with Mrs. Ethel Knight, before returning to Toronto. Mr. Bernard Sturgeon, Orangeville, joined the remainder of his family, wife Elaine and sons . Jeff and Roland, in Bayfield at their Louisa Street cottage on the weekend, to commence their holidays. Bob and Lois Davidson, are visiting at the Hollow with daughter Barb and favorite son-in-law, Bud "the scoop" Sturgeon, for several weeks, before they return home to Windsor Town. Mr. Bob suffered an injury to his leg Sunday night while playing tennis with friend Jack Pounder. He may be sidelined for the remainder of the tournament, still winless. Round and about Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Reid and two sons of Ottawa, visited with his grand- mother, Mrs. Belle Reid, on the weekend. Mrs. Mary Pounder, • of Guelph, returned to Bayfield for a weekend holiday to take a brief hiatus from the university books. Mr. and Mrs. Goldwin Smith, Clinton, recently moved into the Clan Gregor Apartments in Bayfield._ iffi Mr. Talbot "Tal" Lo e Toronto, (Ron's son and Bill's friend) visited with Gil and Helen Latimer at their Howard Street residence for three days. The mattresses have been removed from the \Main beach and if a garbage can were planted at the bottom of the steps, possibly the broken glass and debris would likewise disappear. After an anonymous phone call on the weekend, I stumbled across the street to the Pemberton home, where the family had gathered to erect and bless Gwen's gazebo for' the 7th or 8th consectuive year. It was quite an operation. A reminder to all those pedestrians wandering aimlessly on and across the village streets.
