Zurich playground activity ends
(by Sally Dietrich)
August 21 was the close of
playground activities in Zurich.
The last few weeks have been
very busy.
Seven children went tlo the
Lake Huron Zone track and
field meet in Owen Sound on
July 31. We carne home with
a first in the 100 metre dash
won by Lynda Rawlings and a
second in the running broad
jump by Barbara Smith. All
theother participants did well
but did not place.
The morning playground
spent one morning at the Pine -
ridge Zoo near Grand Bend.
They all enjoyed seeing the
various animals and birds, and
were surprised at the size of
the Ostrich egg that had just
been laid. Another morning
was spent at the Hollnesville
Nature Park. The children
enjoyed feeding the ducks and

The afternoon group spent
a day at Grand Bend playing
miniature golf and a trip
through the Horror House.
I would like to thank every-
one who supported the walk-a-
thon from Zurich to Hensall
and back. The first three boys
were back in less than two and
one-half hours and the last
group of six (including myself)
finished in six hours.
The next day we had a camp
out at "Ivan's Grove." Thirty-
one children spent Wednesday
afternoon and night and Thurs-
day Morning playing various
games, walking on the trails
and helping with cooking of
meals. For many, it was their
first time to sleep in a tent or
in a sleeping bag under the stars
Roller skating and swimming
were still a weekly event for
the afternoon playground.
All the unfinished crafts
were completed during the last
week.
To give our playground a
grand finale, the money raised
on the walk-a-thon was used
to take the children to Marine -
land near Niagara Falls. The
bus left a 9 a. in. on Tuesday,
August20, We arrived at Mar-
ineland at noon and ate our
picnic lunches under the trees.
We entered the grand stand
early to be sure of getting good
seats' for the show. Each child
had his favourite part of the
show such as the dolphins, sea
lions, tigers, trick bears, ele-
phants or the killer whale.'
After the show the children

Margaret Elligsen, Waterloo,
has first place and $1, 000 in
the voice competition at the
national competitive music
festival held at the Canadian
National Exhibition. She was
the only Ontario resident to
capture one of the five classes.
All the provinces of Canada
were represented, except Queb-
ec, and there were five categ-
ories, namely, vocal, piano,
brass, woodwind and strings wits
a first, second and third prize
for each category.
Miss Elligsen won the prov-
incial competition in June in
Toronto after her success at the
local Kiwanis Music Festival.
She began her vocal studies
with Mr. Gordon Scott, Strat-
ford and is presently studying
with Mr. Victor Martens at
Waterloo.
She and her sister, Joanne,
will give a voice and piano
concert at the Kitchener Libr-
ary on Wednesday evening.
Joanne is leaving for Vienna
in September to study piano.
Joanne and Margaret are
the daughters of Mr. and Mrs.
Edgar Elligsen, Walton, and
the granddaughters of Mr. and
Mrs. Victor Deichert, of Zur-
ich.

Zurich Areniii
toured the aquarium and the
Game Farm, where they patted
and fed the animals which
are very tame and look for a
handout of special food pellets.
I thoroughly enjoyed this
summer and learned a lot about
children during the past eight
weeks. Our program could not
have operated successfully
without help from many people.
I would like to give a spec-
ial thank -you to Art Hoy,
Recreation Director for Zuridz,
fo all the help he gave Dave
and me, the Zurich Recreation
Committee and the Youth and
Recreation Branch for their fin-
ancial support, any mothers
who helped in any way, Don
Oke for the use of his truck
van, the workers at the Mech-
anology Centre for their help
at our track and field meet
and Ivan Kalbfleisch, for the
use of his Grove.
