Canada 1 cna Member of the Canadian Community Newspaper Association and the Ontario Community Newspapers Association Val's Views Valerie Gillies It's Summer Summer and the warm weather are here. This edition of the Sentinel is filled with lots of people being active. The weather was beautiful for the Wingham Fishing Derby, playground opening in Point Clark and the Legion track meet. Golfers are in full swing. Indoors, Sepoy Manor resi- dents enjoyed a taste of Italy and two local youth have earned their yellow belts in karate. Please be extra careful driv- ing as school is soon letting out and children will be excited to begin their summer holidays. To kick off the summer, be sure to enjoy the Lucknow Strawberry Sum- merfest this weekend. See you there! Kinloss Kairshea WI The Kinloss Kairshea WI held their Sunshine Sister meeting at the Lucknow Town Hall on June 16. Vice president Joan Murray opened the meeting with the Opening Ode and Mary Stew- art Collect, followed by the WI Grace. Everyone enjoyed a fabu- lous potluck lunch with host- esses Joan Murray and Marg Stanley. Irlma Haldenby gave the minutes and Gladys Johnston the financial report. Irlma gave an excellent report of the Dis- trict Annual that she attended. Birthdays celebrated in July were Alice Ritchie and Sha- ron MacDougall. Alice had a funny reading. Marg Stanley had a contest on "cakes and pies", won by June Gilchrist, Irlma Hal- denby and Irene Haldenby. Irlma had a reading "Sewing': Lucknow News Ruth Dobrensky St. Peter's Anglican ACW met last week for a pot luck lunch at Rivervalley Apart- ments. Special guests for the day were ladies of the Church of the Ascension in Kinlough. A wonderful variety of food was followed by games, devo- tions and a sing -along led by Ann Pritchard. The Lucknow Sepoy Ranees spent an enjoyable time at Grassroots and Whitefields Farm. We were given a delicious lunch at Grassroots and then spent a wonderful time seeing and hearing all about the straw house at Whitefields Farm. If you haven't been out there, give them a call and take a trip out there, it makes for an interesting and educational time. While there, I relayed some new information to the Sepoy Ranees about the Seige of Lucknow. One of the Indian heroines and leader of her own army against the British was the Jhansi Ranee (Queen) who is still hon- oured in India today. I always cheer for the underdog, so hurrah for the Jhansi Ranee. Dungannon held their town wide yard sale this past weekend, another chance to find a bargain or a treasure for all you shoppers out there. The Super Pull was also a big draw to Dungannon this past The roll call was the Sun- shine Sister gift exchange and then everyone showed their sisters gift and many thank yous. Irene took pictures of members and their gifts. Joan and Marg are looking into the Christmas Dinner. June Gilchrist gave the courtesies and a great year closed with "0 Canada': Next meeting is at Nine Mile Villa on August 20 and is the fun meeting. Saturday for all you tractor enthusiasts. This coming weekend Luc - know will be hosting our annual Strawberry Summer - fest. Unfortunately, I'll be away attending the Dobren- sky family reunion in the States.
