That was the dismal outlook last Thursday as we left for an autumn color tour in the Beaver Valley area. Despite the weather the trees were decked in magnificent colors and we stopped for a great meal in Markdale, prepared by the ,clients of ARC Industries. The weather didn't - dampen the spirt of the people who bought apples and apple products because I know the bus weighed a lot more corning home. Next week at the centre we will not be having the Thurs- day program as the hospital auxiliary will be using the Armouries to set up for its rummage sale on Oct. 18. All volunteers who help to keep the centre running smoothly are invited to a pot luck dinner on Oct. 21 at 12 noon. The guest speaker will be Karen Ross, coordinator of the Central Volunteer Bureau in London. She will be speaking on the im- portance of volunteer workers, in a community. The children from the Wingham Children's Centre will be visiting us on Oct. 23. Inter -generational program ming is becoming a popular idea in recent years and it provides an opportunity to participate image -integrated programs. In a booklet pro- duced by the ministry of tourism and recreation it says, "Inter -generational programs help dispel the myth that the older popula- tion is a homogeneous group of dependent, sick and senile persons and that all younger' persons are wasteful, irre- sponsible and disrespect- ful." The next foot clinic at the centre will be Oct. 24 . Phone 357-1440 or 357-1445 if you plan to attend. Start designing your costumes for our afternoon Hallowe'en dance on Oct. 31. Music will be provided by Cord's Olde Tyme Music. Everyone is welcome. The first are seniors' games event will be on Nov. 6. Events to participate in that day will be euchre, table shuffleboard, scrabble, crok- inole, photography, pool and cribbage. Register now for your favorite event. For more information call the centre. Reserve Saturday, Nov. 30, for our annual craft and bake sale in the Armouries. A thought for this week is: "The wealth of knowledge and expertise contained in the older population is often an untapped resource in the community. The years of practical skills and experi- ence can be of tremendous assistance in a variety of times and places." Mildred McClenaghan hosts meeting of UCW Whitechurch—The October meeting of the United Church Women was held last Monday evening at eight o'clock at the home of Mildred McClenaghan.
