Kippers WI visit Sloman Park
By Margaret R. Iloggarth
Nine members of Kippeh East met
at Sloman Park in Clinton on Wednes-
day June 17 for their educational
meeting which had been organized by
Helen MacLean. Little did we realize
what an interesting evening was in
store for us!
We gathered around the ginkgo tree
which had been planted on the site on
May 17, 1982. We were then shown
aboard the school house on wheels
number 15089 by Margaret Sloman,
daughter of Fred Sloman who had
taught in that school for :19 years.
What a pleasure it was to meet Cela
Sloman, Fred's wife, who assisted
him in the school house as well as
raising five children.
Cela told us that the school house
was discovered in 1982 on a siding in
Mississauga after they had lost track
of it in the late sixties.• -
Margaret Sloman showed slides on
the old days in the school house and
Cela had many memories to pass
along.
. Helen MacLean presented a bou-
quet of pink carnations to Cela and
Margaret Sloman. We were then
served refreshments and reluctantly
left the school house. all promised to
return again someday, as the
Slomans told us that more items of in-
terest are to be added to the already
well stocked and informative school
CORRECTION

Queensway activities
We've had a very busy week we'd
like to share with you.
Mondays afternoon it was arts and
crafts time at Queensway. Several of
us got together to make a very silly
craft - 'cone heads.' Our craft turned
out pretty good, not to mention
humorous.
Tuesday morning we all gol
together for exercises to loosen up
and visit with each other. And in the
afternoon Rev. Vipperman came'in to
conduct the church service. which
was enjoyed by all.
Wednesday afternoon the ladies
from the Christian Reformed Church
came by to take several of us for car
rides. Those who went had a super
.time, and the weather was terrific!
Thursday afternoon Joyce Pepper
came in to help us through our choir
practice. We hadn't met for choir in
a while, and this showed at the begin-
ning. But as time progressed. so did
we, and we ended sounding pretty
good. It was a very pleasant not to
mention challenging afternoon.
Thursday evening the movie of the
week was shown at 7 p.m. 11 was call-
ed "Three Grandmothers." It por-
trayed three elderly women who were
from different parts oI the world. and
their unique and very different roles
that they play due to their cultures.
Friday morning the Hensi►1l Public
School Choir came over to visit us one
more time before the summer
holidays. and we're very glad they
did! They gave us a tremendous show
with singing, piano playing and of
course the choir itself. We'd like to
thank all the children tor corning to
Queensway. and we'd like to wish
them all a very safe and happy sum-
mer holiday.
In the afternoon. several of • us
gathered outside for the "Sharing of.
Stories" which is always an enjoyable
activity for all those involved.
There is one more announcement
before we sign off Today. We want to
remind everyone of our Strawberry
Social on June 26, from 2:00 to 4::3u
