Camp creates drench environment
The"Day Camp en Francais," spon-
sored by the Department of Recreation, of-
fers a child the opportunity to learn
French and have fun while doing so.
Lisa Arsenault, supervisor of the camp,
said thecamp tries to create a French en-
vironment and children are taught French
songs and actions.
"The children at this age come in with no
prejudice," she said. "They love it. and
they have a lot of fun."
The theme for this week's five to seven
year olds is "Pioneer Days." Arsenault
said the activities for the week included
costume day, where the children dressed
up like pioneers or Indians at Point Farms
Park, and visiting the , Pioneer Sports
World. The children also had an open
house for parents on Friday: The open
house featured crafts made bythe children
during the week and the singing of the
French songs they learned.
This week the French Camp continues
with children aged 8 to 12.
This program was
created with the safety of
people and the protection
of boats in mind. It will:
• put ongoing maintenance
of existing small craft har-
bours and facilities on a
sounder financial footing:
• re -open harbour facilities
closed for safety reasons;
• repair damage caused by
• storms or high water levels;
• launch new services and
facilities at some harbours
th it will melt the expand-
ing needs of fishermen,
yachtsmen and local
industries.
But more importantly
local harbour authorities
created under this revitaliza-.
tion program will, with the
Federal government support,
give fishermen and other
users a more direct role in
the planning, management,
operation and maintenance
of their harbour.
Project proposals will
be analyzed and funded on
their individual merits, and
announcements on funding
will be made as decisions
are reached.

Bruce Unit 5 breaks record
for continuous operation
On July 7; Unit 5 at Bruce "B" generating
station broke the world record for' con-
tinuous generation of electricity by a
nuclear unit. It went on to set a new record
of 475 days before it was shut down August
12.
The previous record of 439 days, 8 hours
and 29 minutes was held by Oconee -2, an
American pressurized water reactor owned
and operated by the Duke Power Company
in South Carolina. Unit 5 also surpassed a
record held by Bruce Unit 3 for 498 days of
continuous reactor operation.
In 1986 Bruce Unit 5 ranked sixth among
the world's power reactors in yearly perfor-
mance, and in fourth place for lifetime per-
formance. Unit 5 was placed in full commer-
cial service on March 1, 1985.

cient buildings".
