THE WAWANOSH
CONSERVATION AREA
by S. Boyd and K. Kerr
On Friday, May 19, the Grade
4/5 class went to the Wawanosh
Conservation Area for the full day.
They did tree identification where
they had to say what the tree was
and they also did forest manage
ment. This was to see what they
would do with the wood.
After this they ate their lunches
and played some games. They had
one guide there. Her name was
Ester and she showed them around
the Conservation Area.
We interviewed Angela Klegg
and she said she enjoyed going to
the Conservation Area and she
would like to go again.

lot of time, to put on a Family
Dance on May 27 at the Hullett
Central School to raise money for
minor ball, and only 10 families
showed up, four were committee
member families. A really sad turn
out! To me I felt it was a real
embarrassment to this committee,
not to mention the embarrassment
Bruce Vincent on stage must have
felt. Bruce, your music was great,
and it is too bad other people out
there missed out. For those of us
who were at the dance we all really
enjoyed your music.
I feel it is time to start charging
more for each child to play ball, in
order to cover the high cost of
equipment, etc. and then maybe
the parents in Hullett Township
would realize the actual cost.
Really, what is the problem in
Hullett Township? Do you as

The kids learned about good
nutrition and health. It was spon
sored by the Ministry of Health.
They taught the kids with a
musical skit and puppet show. At
the end of the show everyone got a
game of nutrition. Hopefully every
one had a good time and will
benefit from the performance.
ELMER’S SAFETY SHOW
by Shannon Boyd and Kara Ken-
On Monday, May 15, Grey
Central had Elmer the Safety
Elephant come and put on a safety
show.
The children in kindergarten,
grade 1, 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, took part in
the show. They were told about
safety, driving your bike and
walking on the streets.
The children saw Elmer the
Elephant and they thought he was
funny.
At the end of the show the
children got a colouring book on
how to be street smart.
parents not care, and think to
yourself, well let the other guys do
the work? Baseball costs a lot of
money, and without your support
something may have to change.
I was one of the parents at the
dance and felt it was a real
embarrassment to this committee.
My husband is Rec-Co-ordinator
for Hullett Township and I know a
lot of time is spent organizing
events to raise money. Also those
on the ball committee give a lot of
their tree time and enjoy working
with Neil, but when they all receive
a slap in the face, such as was felt
on May 27, it is hard to keep going.
I know I drop my children off at ball
games as well, and I am not
perfect, but I do try to support
fninor sports in anyway possible.
Let’s try to show more support
for Hullett Township minor sports
next time.

hospitality to Daniel Hosti, 12, and
Peter Probst, 14.
Karsten Fauer, who is the 16
year old drummer in the German
Band also stayed in Ethel at the
residence of Jason Lamont and his
family. Language was not a pro
blem as most of the German
students speak English. It is com
pulsory in Germany to learn our
language.
Parent chaperones Jovas and
Katrina Sroum spent their visit
with Mr. and Mrs. Ron Janke of RR
1, Ethel, while Josef Renz, another
parent, stayed with LDSS music
teacher and choir leader Laurie
Rowbotham. Mr. Rowbotham was
at one time the conductor of the
Blyth Festival Singers. German
conductor Helmut Hubov was also
a guest of the RowbothamS.
During their sojourn in the area
the group was taken on a tour of St.
Jacobs and Seagrams. They also
visited the Bruce Nuclear Power
Development, where Mr. Rowbo
tham stated they spent an enjoy
able day. Translator Kim Joost
guided the tour which lasted,
according to Mr. Rowbotham,
about one hour longer than usual.
Ontario Hydro treated the entour
age to dinner which Mr. Rowboth
am said was just wonderful. The
German jazz band returned home
last Friday after a two and a half
week visit in Canada where they
performed their repertoire of Jazz

The regular meeting of the

May 25 in the church parlour.
A beautiful worship on the theme
“Taking Time to Meditate” was
conducted by Margaret Kai and
Myrtle Vodden.
Ruby Pattison introduced the
guest speaker Carolyn Vincent, an
employee at “The Survival
Through Friendship House” in
Goderich. She explained the setup
at the house and listed some of
their needs. Blyth Church already
has a Sunday set aside for food
collection. The U.C.W. will contact
them at Harvest Bonanza Time and
possibly have a Christmas Project
to help them with their Christmas
Boxes.
