Get requests for GB winter carnival
GRAND BEND - Dave Shep-
pard, Chairman of the Grand Bend
Winter Carnival Committee, was
on hand at Monday night's council
meeting with a number of requests
he hoped council would grant as
they get ready for the 1990 show in
February.
Sheppard told council this carni-
val will see the number of tvents
increased to 30, up from 94 last
year.
The first request was for the use
of Municipal Drive as a location for
the public snow sculpting contest.
The new hydro substation, between
the Works Building and the Fire
Hall, means some sculptures will
have to be moved to the south side
of the Drive this year.
Sheppard also asked to use the
ball diamonds and soccer field for
the Snow -Pitch competition, the
use of Main Street for the annual
parade, the use of Elmwood Street
near Main Street for a new waiters'
race and street animators, and use
of the council chambers for the Hu-
ron Country Playhouse Ladies
Guild to hold another art show the
last weekend of the Carnival.
In addition, Sheppard wanted per-
mission to construct an events ban-
ner on the south side of the munici-
pal building for use during the
show. He wondered if the streets
and sidewalks could be cleaned and
cleared to the beach in time for the
Camival.
All of Sheppard'srequests were
granted by council, subject to the
usual conditions, that everything is
left the way they found it.
Some of the new events this year,
besides to the street animators,
(jugglers magicians etc.), will be a
kids talent show and a public wed-
ding on top of a 20 -foot wedding
cake made of snow.
The 1990 Winter Carnival is
scheduled for February 10-11 and
17-18.
Beach cleaner
Public Works' foreman Bud
Markham told council it will cost
about $17,000 to repair the beach
cleaner and advised it should be
done in the off season when parts
might be available.
He said Grand Bend's was the
only beach cleaner in Southwestern
Ontario not to have any repairs
done in the last five years and it
was about due.
New councillor Dennis Snider
said "it should be fixed and should
be paid for out of the parking fund.
After all it is just part of the cost
your are going to run into in run-
ning a beach resort".
Cash bonuses
Council, feeling in a Christmas
mood, decided to pay full-time of-
fice employees Tom Maier and
Kam Durdin each $1,000, for their
efforts above and beyond the call of
duty and for putting up with a lot of
inconveniences this year.
Deputy reeve Bruce Woodley
made the recommendation because
New board chairman
LONDON - Robert Kew of Dela-
ware, new chairman of the Middles-
ex County Board of Education, re-
minded school trustees this week
that education financing will con-
tinue to rise and increase the burden
of the local taxpayer.
Speaking to the 1989-90 Inaugu-
ral Meeting of the Board, Mr. Kew
said the five main sources of pres-
sure to increase budgets are infla-
tion, increased wages, repairs and
maintenance of physical plant facil-
ities, Education Ministry initiatives
requiring more staff and other re-
sources, and an increasing school
population.
He said "While we must recog-
nize and not exceed our financial
limits, we must realize that those
limits will have to increase. The
'trick will be to 'limit the increases
and to choose wisely so that money
will not be wasted."
Referring to school curriculum,
Mr. Kew said that children must be
given the chance to use new tech= ..t
nologies, particularly the computer.
"The future of tomorrow will be a
society where computer literacy
will not be a convenience, but a ne-
cessity."
Recognizing that Canada is bilin-
gual and bicultural, he said that
children need the opportunity to
learn the country's official second
language in order to have a better
understanding of things that are uni-
quely Canadian. "There cannot help
but be a benefit accruing to those
who have opened their minds and
lives to a second language and a
second culture."
He urged parents to take time to
become involved in their schools,
to ask questions and to demand an-
swers.
Mr. Kew was first elected to the
Board in 1985 and this past year
served as chairman of the Academic
Affairs Committee.

Two major injuries in crash
on highway 4, north of Exeter
EXETER - Two persons suffered
serious injuries in a three -vehicle
accident on Highway 4, north of
Exeter. It occurred at midnight, Fri-
day.
The vehicles were driven by Wil-
liam Elliott, Clinton; Julian Bayley,
Grand Bend and Rosaire Bedard,
RR 2, Zurich.
Taken to London hospitals were
Bayley and Robin Walkers, a pas-
senger in the Elliott vehicle. Suffer-
ing only minor injuries were Elliott
and another passenger David Mar-
shall.
Three accidents occurred on
Tuesday, December 12. In the first,
vehicles driven by Leonard Good,
RR6, Goderich and Trevor Lans-
bergen, RR 2, Zurich collided on
Huron road 2, south of Zurich.
The next mishap involved vehi-
cles operated by Elsie Mathers,
Grand Bend and Wesley Nelson,
Stratford on Highway 81.
The power of His love
is everlasting.
As we reflect and
remember, Christ's
message is forever.
We take this joyous
occasion to express our
thanks to all of you.

Vehicles driven by Joanne Price,
Crediton and Marlene O'Brien, RR
2, Crediton were in collision on
Huron road 4 in Crediton.
On Monday, December 11, a ve-
hicle driven by Terry Hodgins, RR
3, Parkhill collided with a stop sign
on sidcroad 20 in Stephen township
without damage to the vehicle.
Thursday, a vehicle driven by
Robin Leake of Exeter went out of
control on Highway 83 and rolled
over in the ditch. A passenger Patti
Leake received minor injuries.
On Saturday, a vehicle driven by
Nancy Kcuhl-Francis, RR 3, Bay-
field went out of control on Con-
cession 2-3 of Hay township
and struck a hydro pole.
The local OPP detachment's
RIDE program spot checks will be
conducted throughout the arca in
various locations throughout the
festive season.
he felt the two deserve the money
for their dedication to the village
and all the extra work they put in
helping new clerk Wayne Tingle
learn his job. They are the only
staff left in the office with any
background on most matters.
Woodley also felt it was a good
idea for the village to hire a Sum-
mer Service Coordinator, who
would be responsible and oversee
all summer staff operations, and act
soon to get "the best person possi-
ble".
Council felt it should do this as
soon as possible but they were un-
decided on the type of person they
wanted for the job. It will be dis-
cussed at the first meeting next
year.
Waste management meeting
Barb Southcott, who was recently
nominated by council to'be on the
Sarnia/Lambton Waste Manage-
ment committee, gave a brief report
of her first meeting to council.
The former councillor asked if it
was possible to record the loads.
taken to the landfill site this year
and compare it to last year to see
how much recycling is helping the
capacity at the waste site.
She said the Committee Wanted
to see what could be done with
waste reduction at a local level and
what effect recycling is having.
Reeve Bob Sharon said the fig-
ures might not be accurate because
of all the new condominiums that
will open this year, which was fac-
tored into last year's figures.
No Lights yet
Council was told that the Public
Utilities Commission will not be
able install the lights at the skating
rink on the old river bed until
sometime next year, because the.
PUC cannot spare °the time right
now.
Council also accepted, with re-
grets the resit nation of Pat Har-
wood, Chairman of the Grand Bend
and Area Recreation Committee, as
she has taken a job in Oro Town-
ship starting in January. A new
chairman will be chosen.
Not giving up
Council received a letter from
Kyle Harrison, who was recently
passed over for the vacant council
seat by Dennis Snider, who was
nominated at the December 4 meet-
ing by Woodley and councillor
Shirley Mitchell.
In the letter, Harrison said he
contacted the Ministry of Munici-
pal Affairs and told them he felt his
application was not treated fairly
by council, and said they erred in
their nomination method at the Sep-
tember 5 meeting.
"It is my contention that had
council followed proper procedure
during that meeting, I would have
been acclaimed councillor on that
date," said Harrison in his letter.
He advised council to seek
speedy legal advice on this matter.
Harrison gave council his appli-
cation for the vacant council seat in
August after council turned Harri-
son down several times, his nomi-
nation died on the floor.
