"As usual - I hate to keep saying that, but as usual we had a very good show," said Ross Long, one of the Optimist organizers. "We're pretty happy with it. It worked nllt very well." Long said the Optimists received very positive comments from sever- al exhibitors who had displays at the three-day event some of whom have already said they want to return to next year's show. In all, about 4,000 people - around the same number as last year - attended the show which took up virtually all the floor space of the South Huron Recreation Centre. Exhibitors provided dis- plays on every home improvement possibility, everything from televi- sions t4 picket fences. The Optimists, who offer the show each year as a means of rais- ing funds to support youth pro- grams in the community, say they also achieved a record time in dis- mantling the show. Long said near- ly every exhibltbr had taken down , their display by an hour and 20 minutes after the doors closed Sun- day evening. Since the ice surface was left in place beneath the rented board floor, the arena will soon re- turn to use for hockey playoffs. A supervised playroom, courtesy of MacLeans and the Kirkton Pathfinders allowed parents to keep their children out of harm's way while visiting the Home and Garden Show.

Lucan sets spring clean-up LUCAN - Residents of the vil- lage are reminded that the special spring garbage pickup will be held during the week of April 20 to 24. Brush will be accepted on Mon- day and Tuesday and heavy items will be picked up the next three days. The larger items include stoves, refrigerators, bricks, stones and metal. A few weeks ago, council en- couraged residents to put some larger items out on a regular basis instead of waiting for the spring and fall cleanups. Larry Lewis of C.H. Lewis Ltd. said at that time his firm would pickup chairs, chesterfields and brush in bundles on a regular Fri- day basis. Council is supporting and will be participating in a Pitch -In day to clean up the village on Saturday, May 9. More than 100 members of the Scouting and Girl Guide groups in Lucas are expected to take part. Kickoff time is 10 a.m. Accept tender On the recommendation of Hu- ron -Middlesex Engineering, coun- cil has accepted the tender of Steb- bins Paving to complete the reconstruction of Langford Drive. The Stebbins bid of $41,115.05 was one of seven received. With this tender acceptance, reeve Tom McLaughlin said, "We will prob- ably save about $5.000 from the original estimal s.- . The street work tri include grad- ing. laying of asphalt aad ooasltvc- tion of cubs, peers and sidewalks is expected to slat on April20. Council will .be applying to the provincial government for a supple - memory and ambildy in the amount of S40A00. A request has been received from Ian Ochitwa of RR 1, Lucan to es- tablish a public coin-operated laun- dromat on Main street. Council is *filling to entertain the proposal when the water and sewer expansion programs are completed. Reeve McLaughlin said, "We cer- tainly welcome new business". Clerk Ron Reymer said a resolu- tion will be needed to amend the zoning bylaw to allow laundromats and car washes. Works superinten- dent Doug Johnston cautioned that this type of business could not be accommodated until the Lake Hu- ron water system is in the village. The requisition for the 1992 tax levy has been received from the county of Middlesex. The village of Lucas will pay $104,821 this year as compared to $97,741 a year ago. That's an increase of 7.24 percent. One hundred and eleven ex- hibitors displayed their wares at the seventh annual Opti- mist Home and Garden show on the weekend, attracting about 4,000 visitors to the event. With heart set on winning one of the bunnies on display at the MTS Farm Supply booth, Jonathan Triebner fills out an entry form in one of the Home and Garden Show's more unusual prize draws while Rebecca Carter picks out the one she wants most.
