regor honor bicentennial
By Helen ()wen
• If the' sun shines of the righteous then
Bayfield must come in that category Lor to
date* all the Bicentennial eventigoingtack
o last l''ebruaryhave been blesser with sun-
s e. July 23 was no exception.
To celebrate Ontario's Bicentennial the
residents of Clan Gregor Apartrfients decid-
ed to plant a tree, and they did in grand
si3!le.l Chairs were arranged on the front
lawn and to add an extra note to the occa-
sion the 30 piece band from Truro, Nova
Scotia provided music before and after the
ceremony.
The Reeve of Bayfield, David Johnston,
introduced the guests, MP Murray Cardiff
for Huron -Bruce, MPP Jack Riddell, for
Huron -Middlesex, Tom Cunningham,
Warden of Huron County and Gerry Ginn
from the Board of Management, Huron
County Housing Department. In turn each
shovelled earth around the newly planted
Sunburst Locust which was blessed by the
Rev. George Youmatoff. A provincial flag
was presented to the residents by Mr. Rid-
dell; and the reeve responded by promising
a flag pole.
Following a musical interlude conducted
by Kenneth Henderson, everyone adjourned
to the Municipal Building where lunch had
been set out, provided by the residents and
served by Wynn Graham and Helen Hopper.
For those who lived in the apartments a
shuffle board contest had been arranged by
Harold Seaman, and residents were able to
sit back on their balconies and watch in
comfort. The teams comprised Mr. and
Mrs. Harold Hopper, Mr. and Mrs. Harold
Seaman and Mr. and Mrs. Reginald Wilson.
An inscribed plaque commemorating the
occasion is to be placed in the entrance to
the apartments. Altogether it was a day to
remember, the sunshine, the music, the
lunch and the delightful setting. The
gardens around the apartments are well
kept thanks to the janitor Barbara Latour,
and the residents themselves who take pride
in maintaining the flower beds.
Pioneer Park Donations
to Bicentennial
On July 23, Sally Leitch presented a che-
que for •$100 to Helen Owen, Chairman of
Bayfield Bicentennial Committee as a con-
tribution towards the fund. This is very
much appreciated as the Pioneer Park
Association not only puts on an excellent
summer program of entertainment, but also
needs its. financial resources in order to
maintain the park for the public and combat
theerosion problem on the lake side.
Many regular summer visitors to the
vidiagemaybe interested to learn that when
it decided to undertake a very comprehen-
sive program of°activitie in connection with
Bicentennial; it was felt that the pioneer
sppit; .o indpendenge should be perpetuated.
CQuaequently no requests were Made for
government grants. So far the response has
been very gratifying. A little more is needed
so that the whole project vial have bee's*
achieved through public support. If you are
a regular Bayfield supporter and you would
like to contribute please call in at the
Municipal Building.
For the Canada Day Fireworks Display
some assistance , was received from the
Canada Committee,' but here again, it was
the generosity of local residents which more
than half met the costs. In reviewing the
past few months, the activities which have
taken place encompassing a variety of
events for all age groups Bayfield should be
justly proud of. the wonderful support, not
only financial, but also practical and im-
aginative, which reflects the tremendous
community spirit and willingness to par-
ticipate.
Sometime in the fall the Time Capsule will
be buried, and when everftually itis retriev-
ed and the contents examined, posterity will
have a wonderful record of this Bicentennial
summer.
Pioneer Park Special Notice
Owing to unforeseen circumstances the
executive of Pioneer Park regrets that the
performance by the Band of the Salvation
Army, part of the summer program on July
28, has had to be cancelled.
Pioneer Park Contribute
to Quilt Exhibition
On July 23, Len Apedaile, on behalf of the
Pioneer Park Association, presented a che-
que to Lois Lance, Chairman of the Quilt Ex-
hibition, which will be taking place in the
Old Town Hall August 3, 4 and 5.
This money will be used for prizes for the
best quilts in the respective categories.
A Hole in One!!!
There was quite some excitement on July
19 when one of the players in the Thursday
Night League Golf, Bill Foster, achieved the
ambition of every golfer - a hole in one! A
long time summer resident of Bayfield, and
long time golfer, Mr. Foster approached the
fifth hole (117 yards) with four other fellows
on the team who witnessed his triumph.
They were Alf Clark from Clinton,' Gerry
Stirling and Mac McCulligh. The game is
played out at the Bluewater Golf course, and
Mr. Foster's 'achievement is on record as
the first hole in one this year.

Round about
Thanks are in order from more than one
source, as our one time correspondent Eric
Earl become positively euphoric over the
most heart warming experiences he hacl
while in Clinton Hospital. He first thoughehe
could write one of his Bard of Bayfield
poems, but only got as far as the title, Mr.
Miller You Make Lousy Cookies, when all
the thank you's he wantedo say' over-
' whelrned him.
The kindness and good care of both doc-
tors, nurses and administration personnel
will never be forgotten by both Eric and Ev,
while the cards and flowers even a. dish of
peppermints tastefully arranged with chew-
ing gum sticks. the visits of friends and

family. and practical things like grass cut-
ting, have Eric in a state of mind beautiful
to see. He has always been a lover of the
children in town and the splendid Mad Hat-
ter's Card they sent him from their
Bicentennial tea party, just made his cup of
thankfulness run over. Bayfielders can only
say to this fun loving man, life is just looking
in a mirror Eric, these expressions of affec-,
tiqn are .just a reflection of the way you have
lived in Bayfield. However, ,we want you
back singing and playing the organ in chur-
ch!
Happy grandparents this week are the
Jack Merners and the Don Campbells as
their mutual grandchildren Jason and Angie
are here, being properly spoiled of course.
Ruth Smith and Berthena Hammond are
still hospitalized in Clinton while Ruby Com-
rie and Jean Campbell are now in Goderich
Hospital.
Bayfield has been saddened this week by
the death of two of our old friends of many
years. Mr. George Bellcharnber was buried
on Saturday from Trinity Church where he
took an active part, in any of the services to
that church he was called anon togive. His
community participation was also most
generously given. Active in the Lions Club;
'he was one of those who sat grinding out
movies at Pioneer Park in the early days.
George has borne with courage the illness
he has endured. They say a person's worth
is the legacy he leaves behind him and the
three fine sons, Brian, Nigel and Neil with
their families and his loving wife Audrey
will attest to the fact that George's life has
been full of worth. Our sympathy to them.
Our sympathy too, to the family of Irene
Brisson, who with her husband lived in the
home now owned by .Mr. and Mrs.
DuBoulay.
Her love of beautiful things, led her to
opening an antique store in the quaint shops,
now so changed into •a Pizza Palace.
Bayfield in those days was a mecca for anti—
que buffs and many, a treasure was to be
foundthere, while her personality was so -
warm, one liked to linger in the store.

department to
prepare for
new building
Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston asked
Road Superintendent Rick Penhale at the
July 16 council meeting to prepare a four
year program of his department. The pro-
gram is to be prepared by the second council
meeting in September.
Reeve -Johnston also asked that the road
superintendent include an appendix of his
set preparations and a proposal for a new
works department building.
"Council has agreed that they would like
to know your long term program," noted the
reeve. "You can base your program on a
five per cent increase annually."'
In other business Mary Rochon sent•a let-
ter of thanks tocouncil regarding the $2,000
grant she received under Distrint Heritage
Conservation for the restoration of her
business; The Bayfield House. "Many peo-
ple have commented on its appearance,"
she wrote.
The works department will be purchasing
a new Weed Eater. Mr. Penhale said con-
sidering the many times the Weed Eater has
been rented from the Bayfield Building Cen-
tre, they might as well look into buying one.
Reeve Johnston, owner of the Bayfield
Building Centre, turned the chair over to
Councillor Reg Wilson on this issue because
of pecuniary interests.
Trinity bake sale •
Once again this year the Bake Sale
organized by the Anglican Church Women
provedto be very popular. About a dozen of
the ladies were there bright and early to set
out a most tempting array of baking..
The Rev. George Youmatoff opened the
proceedings with a prayer and then the en-
thusiastic buyers hastened to make their
purchases.
As always the delicious fruitpies proved
to be the favorite and were quickly sold out,
but on the other tables home baked bread,
rolls and savoury nibbles soon disappeared.
Pickles, jams, tarts, cakes offered an ex-
cellent selection and by mid day there was
little left.
The treasurer reported that the sale had
proved to be most successful and had pro-
vided a good boost to , the funds which the
ACW uses to implement its support of work
in the Mission fields. Thank you to all who
baked, helped and supported this project.
