Bayfield was in a flurry of
activity again this week as
people began returning to
check up on their cottages
and the second group of
stores prepared to open.
Mr. and Mrs. Gamrnage
have returned and are busy
unpacking in preparation for
the opening of their store this
weekend. Both Totality and
the Potting Shed wall open,
the latter which added the
lovely splashes of color to
Main street last summer.
Old friendships were
renewed as Mr. and Mrs.
Dick returned from the
States. The Dicks also are
unpacking in preparation for
the opening of the Village
Guild at the end of the mon-
th. The Dicks, long time
summer residents of
Bayfield, have again been
travelling widely bringing
the best off many countries to
rest on Main street.
The Old Same Place had
already sold out of its first
shipment of Trivial Pursuits.
Those that have not bought
their copy of the game have
my sympathies especially as
they might have to wait until
June for more. For the truly
addicted 1 would recom-
mend unproved intelligence
work as the second shipment
prorraises to sell out as quick-
ly as the first.
Changes have occurred at
the Walnut inn. This year
Roger Pemberton, Gwen
Pemberton's grandson has
leased the E.A.T. Company.
The restaurant will be open-
ing on the 24th of May. the
specialty store on the first
weekend of May which will
include art by Duncan
Miller, a promising Cana-
dian Artist, health foods and
antiques. Roger of cow -se,
has been visiting Bayfield
since he was a youngster.
In response to queries, Yes
the Little Inn will be opening
the Veranda as soon as the
days are sunny and warmer
and Bayfield can be ap-
preciated at its fullest.
Tears were shed by friends
of Jill and Joel Waters as
they are returning to Saska-
toon, Saskatchewan after
their Easter Break. We will
look forward to seeing them
again in the summer. Linda
Moser has arrived from
Switzerland replacing her
sister Astrid as a nanny at
the Old Metcalf Place and
Every Tuesday morning the little ones gather at the-,

Van Egmond
Foundation to
burn mortgage
SEAFORTH - After 12 years
off effort by many, the Van
Egmond House planned to
symbolically burn its
„mortgage" at the annual
meeting, April 11. The
burning represents the
clearance of debts and all
loans at the local bank.
Without the trusting belief
in the historic project by the
various managers at the
Seaforth branch of the
Toronto Dominion Bank, this
stage could not possibly have
been reached by the Van
Egmond Foundation. There
has never been an actual
mortgage on the property
since acquisition in 1971.
In 1970 the Ontario
Heritage Foundation
recommended to Huron
County Council that the
former Van Egmond House
be preserved and restored.
Eventually Seaforth Reeve
John Flannery was ap-
proached with this request
and with Tuckersmith Reeve
Elgin Thompson, called a
citizen's meeting at the
Seaforth Town Hall in
October, 1971, to gauge the
amount of locinterest.
This meeting brought about
a feasibility study on the
restoration project.
The Van Egmond Foun-
dation evolved, complete
with the charter dated Jan.
28, 1972.

Trinity auction sale
is huge success
By Helen Owen
The Parish Hall at Trinity
Anglican Church saw a large
assembly on April 7 when the
ladies of the ACW held their
annual auction sale.
A wide variety of items
had been contributed,
catalogued and marked off
in lots, and as soon as the
doors opened potential
buyers took advantage of the
opportunity to inspect the
goods displayed_ Ranging
from an original print by
Leda McAlister, domestic
items, fancy goods, toys,
plants and baked goods,
there was plenty from which
to make a choice.
Rev. George Youmatoff
was the auctioneer and
stimulated bidding with a
brisk and tempting
challenge, as well as several
humorous comments on the
lots being offered.
By the end of the afternoon
the display tables were
clear, and the organizers
report a • very satisfactory
return. Thanks are extended
to all who participated, con-
tributing goods, setting up
the sale and assisting during
the auction, as well as those
whose support contributed to
the success of the occasion.
