THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2001. By Betty Graber Watson ' Call 887-6236 887-9231 "THANK YOU" from Silent Auction Committee of Brussels United Church for a very successful auction on Saturday, October 27th. The businesses and congregation for their generous donations. The Citizen for the use of their window for displaying items. The bidders and buyers who supported this endevour. - Kevin McArter who willingly assisted with the Live Auction "THANK YOU TO ALL" This ad is generously paid for by: FRANK WORKMAN ELECTRIC 887-6867 Ah — the sun is shining. This will help in my recovery of having to drive to work Friday night in a snowstorm. I was just not quite ready for the white stuff, but once again it's a good reminder that we don't run the show. And, isn't that a good thing! Do you wonder sometimes if we're related to the bears? Really, we seem to get into a pre-hibernation mode each year about now and wan- der from church to arena to Legion to hall to library to church. And lo and behold at each stop there is food waiting. Now, the more I think about that, it sounds like a good plan to encour- age. From the folks I've seen at the various eating functions, we could start a chapter of the Bears Club. - Speaking of clubs, the Red Green followers need to watch the show on Nov. 9 (I know you watch every week) but there may be a distin- guished Pipe on the show. A few weeks ago the taping in Toronto was the destination for Gary and Murray and they took the Grabers, Chris and Phil, as tour guides. Rene, Julie, Jean and their United Church company are smiling as they review their work for the silent auc- tion. They were extremely pleased with the participation, the wonderful donations and the mood of the over- all project. Thanks for your part in our community. Alice Brothers spoke for Lyle (again) as they passed on the honour of Brussels Citizen of the Year to the Scott family. Nelva accepted the plaque with gracious words and Jim reminded us about the qualities of his dad that made him and Nelva fit- ting recipients of this award. Lunch and a social time at the United Church gave- their friends an oppor- tunity to congratulate and mingle. We are truly blessed to have the Brotherses and the Scotts in our midst. They portray the ideal volun- teer and so we salute them in this Year of the Volunteer. What great examples. Watch for the gremlins tonight. They're having such a good time they sometimes forget the safety rules. Dig our your old hat and greet the spooks at the door with a smile and a song and scare them. Bye now, Betty G. W.
