Clinton News Record, 1981-05-21, Page 11BAYFIELD by Bud Sturgeon, and Helen Owen • Gar r-. eners finish project Actions speak louder than words! .A fact that is very clearly demonstrated by members of the Bayfield Garden Club. This week has seen the completion of a wonderful job on the `triangle' at the top of Main Street. A delight to passers'by, and surely a §ource of civic pride, this rough area has now been landscaped and planted out for the summer. The involvement of the yonnger generation was ex- t oplihied by the willing assistance of Guide and Brownie _ _rePlresentative Kelly Brandon, Elisa Dtmn, Cathie Haw and Ray Anne Scotchmer, who came along to help with the planting of the petunias. Credit for the task is shared by the village con- tribution in the preparatory stages, Bill Gammage and Bob's Landscaping from whom materials were pur- chased, and who both offered expert advice. Thanks for the coordination of the pro- ject and actual labour go to Herb Beattie, George Chap- man, Harold Hopper, Ernie Hovey, Dora Warwick and Jack Willock. Further efforts of the club are also apparent outside the Library and the Archives Room where. George and Flo Youmatoff, and Kay Reid have set out tubs containing geraniums, lobelia and. petunias. This organization certainly shows great in- itiative and a firm deter- mination to fulfil its objec- tives, and of course, is conti- nuing work on the wild flower sanctuary on Mara Street, which is already showing evidence _of the ef- forts which have been pur- sued over the past few mon- ths. And don't forget - the Garden Walk in Bayfield, sponsored by the Garden Club on Saturday May 30th. 2 - 5 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. (In case of rain - May 31st). The tickets are unique and worth seeing. They show an old time family posing with their flowers in front of the house. It is interesting to note the dark clothing except for the child. These tickets have been provided by Mrs. Charles Rogers, and hand- written by Doris Morrison. Not only gardens are on show. •There will be an Art Show at the home of Jim and Betty Garrett, where three local artists, Leda McAlister, Doris Mac- Dougall and Elaine Dowler will be exhibiting their work. Mrs. McAlister who has a gallery at her home, north of Bayfield, is a versatile artist whose pictures include land- scapes and street scenes, presented in a variety of media. Mrs. MacDougall works mostly in oils and teaches art. Her work em- braces flower studies and landscapes. Mrs. Dowler, who plans to open a gallery in Bayfield "m the near future, carries out commis- sion work as well as ar- chitectural sketches and water colours. The tickets make excellent souvenirs and for themselves alone are worth the $1 admission charge. They are available now from the usual outlets, or from Reg Wilson.
