Monday of this week 28 3-6 0$1r old children showed up at the park with lots of enthusiasm and zest for living. They had even WV -registered for their program. Pictures are in this • issue of the A- T, but this is not the case for the program offered for the 7-14 year olds. When we hear, `There's nothing to do in this town' it hurts just a little when there has been so much effort to organize a pro- gram for that group of young people. We like to remain flexible so that if there are other pro- grams of interest we can switch midstream it there are no com- pNcations. The activities are on- going and for one small fee one can participate in all the pro- grams grams offered. They are not re- stricted to just ohe activity. Ten- nis, which is a growing sport; archery, which might be new to some of the youngsters but is fun . and easy; orienteering, which is just new to some of the young ones here since Mr. Mann came to town; soccer, which is usually played by the elementary school students; and creative drama which takes place each Saturday. If you or your children are in- terested in these activities, they take place at the F. E. Madill SS each day from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Just go up and let the leaders knowyou would like to -take part. THE LEADERS By name they are Susan Burke, Pat Scott, and Keith Nethery and they have gone through extensive training to look after the children this summer. DAY CAMP After the regular program has been completed a day camp pro- gram has been planned to oper- ate from Aug. 4 to Aug. 15. The fee for that -program is just a small $3.00 for the two weeks ante that includes milk. Writeus a note and tell us your children want to take part. You will be notified immediately. • - Where have all the children gone??? Couhtry Singles Dance SAT., JULY 12 at HULLY GULLY 8:30 p.m. Dance and ' Comporee Refreshments Served Watch for our next dance on July 19 at Seaforth'-Legion Music by Tony Nuthers Theatre Group Creative and imaginative chil- dren 7-14,years old have a special place this summer -- in the little theatre group. The theatre program is part of "Sunsperience '75" sponsored by the Wingham Recreation Depart- ment. It starts this Saturday and will be held every Saturday until August 30. The final date, of course, is scheduled for a grand performance. The course will include every- thing - from the meaning of drama, acting exercises and theatre techniques to actual stag- ed plays and performances. It will be a learning experience, and a fun time, with the children participating in all the acting, staging, make-up, costuming and props. Registration for this course to date has been rather discour- aging, but the instructors have not given up hope. They don't need a .very large group, but just a little larger than what it is now. It will be held outdoors in good weather, west of the swimming pool, or indoors at the town hall in • case of rain. The time is Saturday mornings from 9 to 12. So hurry up and register - a chance like this doesn't come often.
