COMMUNITY GROUP On Wednesday evening October 7, a group of interested parents and teaehers assembl- ed at the school to discuss the viability of building an adventure playground. It was decided at the meeting that perhaps there was a need to form some type of Colborne Community Group. This group could serve as a catalyst to organize various social., sports or recrea- tional activities that could be enjoyed by all Colborne residents. Community projects such as the Adventure Playground could also be sponsored by this organization. As a result, a follow-up meeting has been scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10 at the school. Everyone is welcome. The film 'The Serious Business of Play' will be shown. This will be followed by a brief presentation by Mr. Paul Bradley from Henderson Recreation, a company who -design, and builds adventure playgrounds. Please plan to attend.
