The Brussels Basket is ready to
begin welcoming new families to
our village. President of the service
organization, Pauleen Kerkhof,
said she would again like to thank
the 40 merchants from Brussels
and area who contributed to the
basket. She is sure that newcomers
to Brussels will appreciate the
impassive demonstration of gener
osity shown by the people of
Brussels.
Anyone who would still like to
donate or knows of someone new
coming to town should contact
Pauleen at 887-9422 or Brenda
Wheeler at 887-6528. Also, if there
is anyone who has recently moved
to town too early for the kick-off
date but who would like some
information about the village, he
should get in touch with either of
these ladies. They’d love to hear
from you.*****
Congratulations to Henry and
Marg Exel on the occasion of their
25th wedding anniversary. An open
house in their honour was held this
past weekend at the Library.*****
