Councillors happy with
innovative dust program
39 enrolled in Blyth Scout groups
Blyth Group Committee met at
the Blyth Public School November
6. Thirty-nine boys are enrolled this
year, in Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and
Venturers.
The annual donation of $500 has
been received from the Blyth
Legion, for which they were
thanked. John Battye reported that
the Legion would like the assis
tance of the Cubs and Scouts to
replenish and refurbish the Legion's
supply of white crosses. The Scouts
have also been asked to keep the
Legion steps cleared of snow over
the winter.
October 26 was Boy Scout Apple
Day. A total of 13 Cubs and Scouts
and one Beaver canvassed Blyth,
Aubum and Londesboro to collect
a total of $373.90.
Cub leader David Sparling
reported that the Cubs have visited
a local orchard and plan to visit a
tree farm near Walton. Cubs need
more leaders.
In October, five Blyth Scouts
attended B.P. Woodsman Camp
near Parkhill. Nov. 5 they partici
pated in a Karate class in Blyth.
They are planning a hike along the
old railway line Nov. 17, a movie
night, and are looking forward to
winter camping.
The Venturers thanked the Group
Committee and the Legion and
Lions representatives for their
assistance in getting the Venturers
started in 1990. This year there are
a total of eight Venturers and two
advisors. They meet at the Londes
boro school twice a month.
It was suggested that in addition
to the year-end financial reports,
each section will be asked to sub
mit interim financial statements
Jan. 1, May 1, and Sept. 1, with an
internal audit the first week of Sept.
Nov. 11 the 1st Blyth Group
members participated in the Legion
Remembrance Day Ceremony.
Nov. 26, at 7:30 there is a District
meeting at the Exeter Youth Cen
tre. The four boys who attended the
World Jamboree in Korea in
August, 1990 will make a presenta
tion on their trip. The meeting will
be open to interested parents, all
section leaders, Scouts and Ventur
ers.
Blyth village councillors
expressed satisfaction, at their Nov.
13 meeting, with the results of
their experimental dust control pro
gram in the village this summer.
The program used lignin, a by
product of the manufacture of
paper from wood pulp, to keep the
dust down.
Town works foreman John Rinn
said he was happy with the results.
The alleyways were graded last
week for the first time since the
lignin had been applied in the
spring, he said. Normally they
would be graded three times during
the summer. The lignin is sup
posed to bind the surface so tightly
that after a few years it is like pave
ment. This year the gravel in the
alleyways really packed well, he
said.
Councillor Steven Sparling said
his company had used the same
dust control system and found no
problems where trucks were travel
ling in a straight line but where
there was a lot of turning, there was
some problem. In another year he
would try using more applications
with less of the chemical in each
application to see if it would pack
harder. "It's really the only alterna
tive that is a 'green' product", he
said.
Reeve Albert Wasson said he
hopes the new material will eventu
ally do away with a lot of mainte
nance on the gravelled roadways.
After three years, he noted, the
gravel is supposed to be so hard
only patching will be needed. "It
e
will probably come very close to
blacktop," he said. "You can buy a
lot of this for what it would cost to
tar and chip or pave."
