from fro s to Grouch Award
1ti .a
As the last of the cars came
rolling in to the Wroxeter com-
munity, . around 6 p.m.
Sunday, the organizers of the
first Great Howick Car Rally
knew they had a hit on their
hands.
Husbands and wives were still
talking to one another. Children
and dogs along for the ride still
hadn't succumbed to the
screaming meemies. The only
casualty was a frog which was
done in by a frustrated mutt in
the back seat of one of the
vehicles.
And most important of all —
everyone in the rally made at
least one wrong turn and so had a
story or two to tell other drivers
and their navigators who made it
back to the park ahead of them.
Some made more than one wrong
turn and ended up in places like
Mildmay, which wasn't even on
the route, before finding their
way to Wroxeter and the park.
Just to prove the event wasn't
rigged in any way, the winners of
the Wrong Way Award turned out
to be Everet and Ruth�Armstrong
of RR 2, Harriston and Harold
and Florence Foster of RR 1,
Fordwich. Mr. and Mrs. Arm-
strong's son John and son-in-law
Jerry Potts were two of the
organizers of the event. The
Armstrongs and Fosters,
travelling together, made it to
Wroxeter but couldn't find the
park, so went back home.
The winners of a handsome
rally trophy, made of assorted
car parts by Carl Shoemaker of
RR 1, Gowanstown, were Gar-
field Gibson and his young son
Ian of RR 1, Fordwich and Neil
McFarlane and his young son
Neil Jr,. of Cambridge. They also
won $20 worth of gas.
The Gibson -McFarlane entry
scored an almost impossible
score of 98 points — even after
making one wrong turn .
Another Gibson -McFarlane
entry, however this one made up
of the wives of the winners, didn't
fare quite so well. They ended up
with the Grouch Award. Audrey
Gibson and Ann McFarlane just
couldn't believe that their
husbands had beaten them and
insisted upon comparing notes
with the judges — as well as their
husbands. Everyone agreed they
were worthy winners of the
Grouch Award.
The James Timperley family
of RR 1, Fordwich didn't make
such good time on the rally but
ended up winning the neatness
award, not so much because of
their appearance as for the real,
live snapping turtle their
youngsters captured along the
way for their "live critter"
display.
Other "live critters" turned in
included an assortment of bugs,
worms, beatles and alive frog as
well as the not -so -live one which
mn Ole
fell prey to the family pet. The
judges decided that one didn't
qualify.
The Artistic Award was given
to two-yeat�old Ryan Ruttan for

the route. Andd Wayne Stewart of
