Caruana On Sun„ : y, June 24, St. James Church held their Annual Parish Picnic at the Lion's park in Seaforth. Although the weather was cool, the turnout was excellent as over three hundred parshioners came to partake of lunch, games and a farewell presentation to Father Caruana. At 1:30 Father Caruana led the people in Grace and a hardy buffet was served. After lunch Casey Van Bakel chaired the activities. First, Fran Craig recited a poem about the history of Father Caruana's ministry. The humourous and informative biography of Father was written with poetic flare by Fran. Next, the students of St. James school along with many of their parents, partictipated in a farewell song for Father Caruana. The verses were composed by the grade two class under the guidance of Gwen Hugill. Then Chris Ducharme, President of the Parent Teacher Committee, explained the Father Caruana Award. Each year a grade eight graduating student who displays a caring, Christian attitude will receive this special trophy in acknowlegement of Father Caruana's altruistic mannerisms. Finally, Father was presented with a reclining chair as a parting gift on behalf of all the parishioners of St. James. Father then expressed his appreciation for the gift and his pleasure of having served this Catholic Community for the past ten years. He will now become the parish priest for St. Paul's in Thamesville. Games were held for the children. Thanks to Joanne Holland, Marg Henderson and Mary Vanden Hengel for organizing these events.
