Canada /47icna Member of the Canadian Community Newspaper Association and the Ontario Community Newspapers Association Val's Views Valerie Gillies Entertainment and Awards ere has been a lot of positive things happening and are yet to happen in and around Lucknow and involving locals and former locals. It is a pleasure to hear from former residents who have done well elsewhere, then shared their happy stories with Sentinel readers. This is exactly what took place with Mark Kranenburg when he shared his story of his company winning the building design awards in Ottawa. Huron County has presented the 2015 awards to the EMS recipients for Fire Fighter, Paramedic and Police Services. Ashfield veterans of WWI who gave their lives will have their names inscribed on the cenotaph in Lucknow by request as there is no such memorial in the former Township of Ashfield and no other memorial on which to honour these heroes. Congratulations to those who fought the good fight to keep these names alive as well as thank you to the Luc - know Legion for hon- ouring the request. An invitation has been extended to all former CG1T members and leaders to celebrate this milestone. The rewards of enter- tainment are to be enhanced in the Bruce and Huron County Libraries. The Society of Engineers have made a donation to Bruce County Library to acquire robotic kits to entice children to leam more about this exciting field. For those of all ages, Huron County has joined the list of many libraries across Canada who have partnered with Hoopla to make digital media available to their cardholders on their personal devices. Huron County is also expanding and consoli- dating the businesses and strategies involved in producing and serving food and drinkinthe area. There have already been inroads into collab- oration and better com- munication to better capitalize on what Huron County has. The next step is to take place in bringing those involved to one common table. The Dan Needles presentation was well enjoyed at the Luc - know Library, another successful cooperative event through the Library and HAWK Theatre. The entertain- ment continues in Luc - know as the Presbyte- rian Church prepares to host Four Heaven's Sake to fill the church with the gospel sounds of this quartet which was founded by a for- mer Lucknow resident. The successes and good times have been great and even more are in store in the future.

Lucknow News Ruth Dobrensky Another Thanksgiv- ing has come and gone, it is always a great holi- day to spend with rela- tives and friends. I hope that everyone had a great thanksgiving and didn't eat too much. It's also a reminder to all that winter is on the way and Christmas will be here before we know it. Speaking of Christ- mas, my shopping is more than half done, mainly for my sister and her family as we are gettting together next week for our family semi-annual visit to our aunt in Meaford. Halloween will be here before we know it and the little ones will be out in the dark looking for sweet treats. The kids may be out a lot longer and later as Hallow- een is on a Saturday night this year. So be sure to be alert and watch carefully for the kids as we're driv- ing about. Speaking of fall, thanksgiving and Hal- loween and the coming of winter, we should all get out and take in a drive to appreciate all the fall colours that are out there now. The leaves are still changing but it won't be long before they're all gone and then we'll know for Purple Grove News Marilyn Reid Recent visitors with Deanna and Morley Scott were Terry Burt of Milton, and Earla and Jim Breen of Holland Landing.
