Calling all ladies
• By Barb Passmore
EXEIt:R - A Ladies Program at the Exeter Fall Fair is all lined -up
for Saturday. September 20 at the South Huron Rec Centre. The pro-
. gram beings at 12:30 p.m.. runs 'til 4:30 p.m. and promises to inspire
you to new heights of feeling good. L'earn.something new and have a
laugh or two and you're sure to go home feeling better.
Pumpkin art, food demonstrations. make-up application. reflexology,
preparing your garden for fall and new videoreleasing - all designed
with ladies in mind!1 •
Fall is here and the next decorating we'll need -to consider is Hal-
lowc'.en. If .you're like me the very idea of all those slimy pumpkin
seeds and accidental slips of the knife leave me in dread of October 31.
Joan Love will show us her way of pumpkin artistry and may very well
restore your Hallowe'en spirit.
Of. course fall is also harvest time.. Deb Campbell shares her love of
cooking and abounding knowledge of new foods in two cooking dem-
onstrations. Have you seen "Spelt". in the local stores? or blue corn
. flour? Conte and get some background on those as well as garlic and
• sunflowers. Of course the old favorites of fall will
0 V be included as well as taste tests to judge for
el 1 yourself.
Gail Baker will do her best to help someone
her look her best. Tips on make up and this sea-
: son's shades and shapes. Ask questions, visual-
ize how you'll look Gail's. special talents help us to feel good about
ourselves and confident in our appearance. What better .way to put a
smile on your face? • •
With so much emphasis on taking good care of our health, getting
lots of exercise and learning to relax and enjoy life, what program
would be complete without some direction to relieve those aches and
pains. Janine Dougall. a certified relexologist will show how the natural
healing art of reflexology 'on the feet and hands can aid in that relief.
She will explain. demonstrate and answer questions about this relative-
ly new approach to pain relief.
Fallis not all rest and relaxation. That garden and those flower beds
that have. bloomed through the summer require some attention. Jennie
Girard spends much of her time teaching and working at landscaping.
A quick little reminder of what should be done to ensure a healthy gar-
den next spring should inspire us all to make good use of these beauti-
ful fall days.
Reel Time Video is providing us with a glimpse of the latest releases
for those cool nights to come. Check out some specially chosen flicks
just for chicks.
General admission of $3. gets all this plus the usual spectrum of
crafts. foods. school work and more at the Exeter Fall Fair. Come join
us for an afternoon of fun and learning you'll not regret. Saturday Sep-
tember 20.42:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. South Huron Rec Centre.
