Junior Farmers enjoy trip to Expo
By David Emslie
Members of the five Huron County Junior
Far.aers clubs were given the opportunity
this summer to travel to Expo '86.
"It was an idea from a couple of members
to take a trip to Expo. They looked into it
with Ellison Travel, and they took over from
there," Huron County president Dianne
Oldfield said.
There were 35 people who took the trip,
the majority of whom were Junior Farmers,
but since they couldn't fill up the trip on
their own, other , fill t ' rw?` open spaces.
They embar e i n thei '" voyage on June
23 and re don July 1
Miss 1 ldfield related eir travel agenda
beginning with their flight to Calgary on
June 23.
Upon arriving in Calgary they were met
by a bus that started them•on their drive to
British Columbia. Along the way on the first
day they made a few stops to take a look at
the scenery, but when they arrived in Banff
they had more time to enjoy the view.
"We saw the Hot Springs and Sulphur
Mountain, and had a chance to ride the gon-
dola up to the top of Sulphur Mountain. It
was beautiful from up there," she said.
On t.neir second day on the road they also
topped to see a few sights like Lake Louise
dad the Great Train Spiral, but Miss
Oldfield said the day was spent primarily
with travelling.

"For our second night we stayed in Ver-
non, B.C. at a ski lodge. It was quite a climb
to get to the lodge," she said. "It was pretty
well at the top of a small mountain. It was
super, we had the whole place to ourselves."
Their trip for thee third day included stops
at Hell's Gate, and"'lunch at a museum. "We
had stops for scenery, as the land was
changing from mountains to farms," Miss
Oldfield observed.
They arrived at the University of British
Columbia, where they would remain for the
rest of their stay, on the fourth day, but not
before stopping off at Chilliwack for those
who wanted to try out some white water raf-
ting. Those who weren't up to the rafting
were given the opportunity to shop and to
visit the Minter Gardens.
Upon arrival in Vancouver their bus
driver gave them a tour of the city, pointing
out some of the larger buildings, the Expo
site, and taking them through the downtown
area.
The Much on
travellers were left pretty
their own for the final four days, MiSs
Oldfield said, with their three day passes to
Expo.
She listed what she considered the high
points of the trip. "For me it was the
Rockies, Lake Louise and Banff, and of
course Expo is the main thing," Miss
Oldfield said. "I enjoyed all three days at
Expo, it was very interesting, there were
lots of different cultures."
Of the pavilions that stood out in her mind
she said Canada was excellent, but the other
'pavilions were also enjoyable.
"The shows in the pavilions were really
good, they had films on the areas, and infor-
mation on their culture and natural
resources," Miss Oldfield explained.
"Having all of the countries together, and
all the different people from the different',.
countries was fantastic," she said.
"There was nothing I didn't like," Miss
Oldfield stated. "The whole week was really
good. I think everyone on the trip enjoyed
it."

theatre this close, here at Huron Country
Playhouse, for its permanent and summer
residents to enjoy. The Grand Bend Library
is very pleased to display materials from
the Playhouse's current works and to now
have scripts available for our patrons to
enjoy."
Heather Redick, General Manager at the
Playhouse believes that "extending • the
Playhouse's services into the community
helps to incorporate the arts into the lives of
those in the community. Furthermore, this
practice reinforces the works mounted by
the Playhouse on another level supplemen-
tal to the live theatre tradition. I hope the
community enjoys reading the scripts as
much as we have enjoyed performing
them."
The Labor, Day holiday weekend marks
the close of the summer vacation season
and as a result, a high volume of traffic is
expected on Ontario roadways leading to
and from the cottage country areas.
Ontario Provincial Police Officers from
across the province report a noticeable im-
provement in the driving behavior of On-
tario's motoring public. Highway deaths
on holiday weekends have been drastically
reduced.
To remind motorists of their respon-
sibilities, the O.P.P. "Strict is Fair" traf-
fic enforcement program will again be in
full effect.
As impaired driving and excessive speed
continue to be the main factors in most

Blyth Festival car rally coming
The Blyth Festival's first car rally was
such a success that a second one will be held
this summer on Saturday August 30! The
circuitous route will be through the
beautiful Huron County countryside, with
devilishly difficult questions to be answered
along the way. Many exciting prizes will be
awarded, with the first prize again being
one night's accommodation for two at the
luxurious 4 star Renton Place Motor Hotel
in Palmerston - their fitness centre includes
an indoor pool, sauna, whirlpool, squash
courts, etc.
Everyone is invited to join in the fun. Get
into the spirit by inventing a humourous
name for your team, or come in costume! It
is recommended that each team consist of
at least two people: one to drive, the other to
read the instructions and navigate. This is
an ideal event for the entire family -
children can get in on the act by watching
out for clues and landmarks.
Teams can register at, and depart from,
the Blyth Memorial Hall on the day of tha
rally, at any time between 9 a.m. and 1'-'
noon. The basic registration is $5.00 per car
(regardless of the number of people in the
team), and those who sign up additional
sponsors (at $5.00 per sponsor) will receive
a bonus - for each additional sponsor, one
extra clue will be given!
If you wish to gain extra points, these
sponsorship sheets can be picked up from
the -Myth -Festival Box Office prior to the
rally. Lunch may be purchased following
the rally, on your return to the Memorial
Hall in Blyth. All proceeds from the rally go
to the Blyth Festival capital projects.
Please note, this is NOT a race. The object
of the rally is to correctly answer the cryptic
questions and identify check -points along
the route, while enjoying the challenge and
taking in the scenery. For more informa-
' tion, please call the administration office of
the Blyth Festival at 523-4345.
