John Vanass is recuperating at
Seaforth Hospital following an
unfortunate accident on icy roads
last Saturday on a sideroad out of
Cranbrook. A speedy recovery is
wished for John from all the
community.
Thirty-six folks came out last
Friday to take part in the final
euchre and Christmas theme party
at the Cranbrook Hall. The lucky
draw for the large watercolour was
won by Bill McArthur of Stroud,
Ontario, father of Dave McArthur
of Cranbrook. Second draw was
won by Jean Thedorf who is a
regular euchre player at Cranbrook.
Congratulations to you both. Many
thanks from the hall board to all
those who participated in this
fundraiser. The participation was
appreciated.
The Gordon Knight family
enjoyed their Christmas gathering
at the Brussels Legion on Saturday.
The younger set enjoyed their gifts
from Santa while parents and
relatives visited and caught up on
all the news. A very happy
occasion for all those who were
able to attend.
4-H club
visits
museum
By Maggie Hallman
To start off Our Heritage, the 4H
leaders Amy Cronin, Cindy van
Nes and Elizabeth DeWit took
members to the museum in
Goderich. They learned about
settlers.
There was a special exhibit there
on the Titanic. Members watched a
film about a family of four Irish
settlers and their first winter in this
new country.
After they gathered together and
voted on the executive: president,
Karen Terpstra; vice-president,
Nicke Hallman; secretary, Laura
Rice; press reporter, Maggie
Hallman.
On Nov. 16 they met for their
second meeting at the township
shed. The meeting was opened by
Karen with the 4-H pledge.
Members voted on a title page
and name for this new club. They
split into two groups. One group
went to Country Patch Works, and
the other group stayed at the shed. I
was in the group at the shed. We
made band boxes.
The third meeting Nov. 23
started with the 4-H pledge at the
township shed. They split into two
groups and switched places. This
time I was in the group that went to
Country Patch Works. Rosemary
Terpstra was nice enough to
volunteer her time and space in her
store to teach us how to make a
quilt patterned heirloom pillow
from Christmas material. Her
daughters, Angela Terpstra and
Amy Cronin, also helped us.
Our fourth meeting, Nov. 30 was
opened by Karen with the 4-H
pledge. This meeting was held at
Grey Central Public School.
We talked about what'heritage
meant, and about our ancestors.
Then we made Christmas balls that
looked almost like they were
quilted. We used the same
Christmas material as we used for
our pillows, styrofoam balls,
ribbon, and a knife to stick the
material into the balls.
We then closed with the 4-H
motto.
