Week of the Child celebrated in Hensall
The many events were well attended by Hensall
and area children.
By Liz Sangster
HENSALL - The annual Week of the Child in Hensall was a huge suc-
cess! Many businesses and organizations generously supported the Week
and the events were well attended. Following are some of the highlights.
The Crafts for Kids evening was attended by over 40 children. This was
an over -whelming response. especially when we remember the same event
was attended by less than 15 in 1993. The children enjoyed creating masks
with supplies provided by the Hensall Optimist Club (the library also con-
tributed some "stand-by supplies").
Hensall Timker Tots and Child Find Canada provided the important ser-
vice of child identification on Saturday, October 15. This was a great start
to our Week, and 45 children participated in the program.
The Hensall Kinsmen sponsored free skating Tuesday, Wednesday, and
Thursday of Week of the Child. Each session saw over 50 children partici-
pate. The CIBC Hensall Branch loaned their TV and VCR for the movie
night Friday, October 21. Almost 30 children came out to enjoy the "Ho-
boken Chicken Emergency" and "The Revenge of Red Chief'. The mo-
vies were provided by the Hensall Library.
The Hensall Economic Development Committee picked up on the Inter-
national Year of the Family and sponsored a poster contest. The theme of
the contest was "Family - the Heart of the Matter." The children who par-
ticipated submitted beautiful artwork, and were pleased with their prizes.
Megan Bisback was the "big" winner. She was not only an individual win-
ner, but her name was drawn for the grand prize of an international Year
of the Family T-shirt. Other individual winncrs were Jasmine Westlake -
Power, and Christy Hartman.
The Week wrapped up in grand form with thc costume parade, Saturday.
The Hensall Fire Department led the parade, with W.B. Fields. Every
child was able to take home a tree kit, supplied by Bluewater Recycling.
Also, there were individual costume winners as follows: Character - Chris-
ty Hartman, A.J. Rcmpcl; Group/wagon - Kids' Club, Adam David; Fancy
dress - Artemysia Fragiskatos, Jasmine W -Power; Witch/ghost etc. - Matt
