Rostock Family Day
The Chessells attenaea a
"Family Day" held by the
Rostock Athletic Association
on Sunday.
Good country music was
provided by local musicians
throughout the afternoon and
early evening, and there
were races fro the children,
duck races, clowns, etc. and
a porek barbecue.
It was a very very en-
joyable community day,
with four generations of
some families there. A ball
game wound up the day. A
similar program might be a
good idea for some com-
munities in this area.

play safely...away
from hydro wires.
Touching or
coming close to
hydro wires can
be fatal.
If kites or model
airplanes contact over-

down by itself.

Climbing hydro poles, fences
around electrical equipment, or trees
near power lines can be fatal. And
remind children not to go near areas
marked "Danger" or "Keep Out"
Or, the fun could be over.
Safety around electricity
