Easter bonnets Brooklyn Button doesn't seem the least worried that she and her doll showed up wearing identical outfits. The two were attending the annual Easter breakfast at the Melville Presbyterian Church on Sunday, with Brooklyn's mom, the former Karla King. (David Blaney photo) A A A A A A A Hurray, Hurray the Easter bunny came. The weekend was a busy time as families and friends gathered to visit, attend church and of course eat. It was good to see so many old friends in the village — renewing contacts and catching up on family news. Happy Easter! The United Church folks were flying high on Easter morning. We had anthems, trumpets, drums, organ and piano talent all amid bouquets of spring flowers and coloured eggs. Our minister Joan Golden guided our worship in this most important day of the Christian year. We also celebrated as we welcomed Ryan and Julia to our congregation by baptism. David and Kandice and Patty and Jason looked happy as we admired their children. The Lenten services held at noon last week were well attended by between 25 and 40 people who heard about the events of Holy Week and enjoyed lunch together. The Ministerial Group co-ordinated the services. The PeeWees are the new Ontario champs and I'm sure they were relieved to do their stuff on Friday and be able to have a stress-free weekend. Enjoy your free moments. Well done! Hello to the folks at Huronlea. We missed seeing you ovdr the past few days and especially at Easter. Hope the 'sickles' are on the mend and the doors are opened soon. I needed a recipe for raisin sauce for Easter and Alma Watson shared the wisdom of a 1940 cook book with me. So in case you need to make tripe, sweetbreads, headcheese or any other food item let us know — it was an enlightening read keeping in mind it was produced in the midst of the war. And yes the raisin sauce recipe was there and it was good! Bye now, Betty G. W. At the Branch By Jo-Ann McDonald The. Brussels Legion Branch began its week with a meeting in the upstairs auditorium. Brussels Agri Services held an information meeting on intensive livestock grazing with guest speaker Leith Pemberton, from New Zealand. Over 100 interested area folks attended the presentation which included a slide show on pasturing. The general meeting was held on Monday evening as well with President Glenn Bridge in charge. It was reported that the fish fry was very successful. There are still three unpaid memberships. there was one new application °for membership received. President Glenn reported that Branch 218 and Membership Chairman fohn Harrison received an award at the zone Convention in Kincardine for having over 80 per cent paid membership for 2002, the highest Branch percentage in the zone. The auditorium floor is to be refinished and it is expected the work will take a couple of weeks. A gift basket is being donated to the Optimist Club-for the auction. A nominating committee was formed to find new executive members. Comrade Irma Brighton and Shirley Taylor have both been in hospital but have returned home. Our best wishes for improved health goes to both of them. The Thursday night darts had a great crowd out and a lot of fun. Even a beginner, like me, came in on the third-place team. Everyone is always welcome and play starts at 8 p.m. At Saturday's euchre there were 11 tables of players vying for the prizes. Coming out on top were partners Delores Howatt and Hazel The Brussels PeeWees would like to extend a sincere "Thank You" to the businesses and Optimist Club for their generous donations. Special thanks to the Brussels Legion for their continued support. The overwhelming support from the community and fans was greatly appreciated. Brussels PeeWees 2001/2002 OMHA Champs Reid, with 84 points. Right behind with 80 points were partners Marjorie Smith and Vera Ahrens. The third place winners with 75 points were Lois Cunningham and Marie Park. The lucky lone hand winners were Irlma Edgar and Bush Whittard. Euchre is every two weeks. A reminder to save the pop tabs and bring them into the Branch. Every little baggy full helps. Remember the wheelchairs it can buy for those who need them. Friday's supper is ham and scalloped potatoes. Congratulations to the Brussels PeeWees for being the OMHA champions. The Brussels legion is proud to be a supporter of these fine young- players and congratulates them and their coaches on achieving such success. Well done boys!
