It's Volunteer Week Volunteers can be found at work in all segments of our rural communities. They are active in voluntary and self-help organizations, and they work for not-for- profit services such as schools and hospitals. Volunteers form the basis for communi- ty life as they provide thousands of ser- vices to citizens in Ontario. National Volunteer Week, April 17-23, is just one op- portunity to recognize the many volunteers in Ontario. There are over one million volunteers active in Ontario every year. Many of these people donate their time within the rural community. As members of organizations, 4-H leaders, organizing local fairs and helping to conduct pro- grams, the volunteers provide countless hours of service. FARM REPORT [BRUCE COUNTY OMAF] During Volunteer Week in Ontario, ac- tivities will focus public attention on the contributions of a wide variety of volunteers and publicly thank them for their contributions. The celebration also encourages all citizens to become more ac- tively involved in meeting needs in the rural community. For more information on how you can volunteer, contact Brita Ball, Rural Organization Specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Walkerton, Ontario. Brookside held an Enrichment Program on April 6-8. There were five different schools here, both boys and girls from grade 3 and 4. The program was on "Mysteries of the Deep." They made Islands from different materials such as plasticine, paint tissue paper, salt, flour, tape, shells, pipecleaners and more. The students had interesting islands including a Mermaid Island, Holiday Island and an Austumn Island. For the second and third day, they did research on a topic about the sea. On the third day they presented their work. Some comments from the students were: Jason Lobb from Holmesville Public School said that hp had fun. Tammy Middlecamp from Brookside said that she enjoyed the activities. Robbie Bogie of Colborne Central School added that he really wanted to come to the program. The children in Miss Jewitt's Grade 1 class have been surprised by two visits from baby animals. Last week, Mr. Graham showed a baby lamb. This week Mr, McQuail brought in a baby goat. The children were very excited about leading the baby goat around the room on a leash. They learned about what the baby animals eat and how they only have teeth on the bottom of their mouth. Thanks to Mr. Mc - Quail and Mr. Graham. The Dinosaur Den has had the pleasure of a"three day visit from Mrs. Webster this week. She taught us how to make wonder- ful bread dough people (We made ourselves!) and then we learned how to write an essay (! !) We each wrote a three paragraph essay to tell how we made the dough people. We're sorry to be losing Serene Fox, and wish her happiness in her new home in Blyth.
