and and A
What a great holiday
weekend this turned out to
be. There were plenty of
"things to do" to go around
and the weather was just
GREAT. The ball tourna-
ment at Ag. Park drew a
very large crowd. I have a
nephew and niece who come
from Windsor every year at
this time as he loves to watch .
the tournament and Walt has
been going with him the last
few years. Niece Marion and
I also had a great time just
going and doing, things we
like to do: So everyone was
happy at our house.
I was so pleased so many
people - I can't believe those
'rowcis' - enjoyeii y pain-
tings last weekend. 1 had
quite a few that I had done
over the years of local
scenes and these always
draw out the conversations:
People certainly ,were
outspoken and I want to
thank all of you for being so
nice. I'd like to do this more
often! •
The Goderich Arts Foun-
dation worked very hard
recently with a successful
M�5the3l�c51hbtu:a
bake sale and later, the
Western night which drew a
very good crowd. Because
the weather suddenly turned
COOL, the party was held in
the building next to the
Livery. courtesy of Maurice
Gardiner, which quickly
became a quite realistic
barn with tables and dance
area with a haywagon bor-
rowed from Jack Seaman
and oil lamps from Jack and
area farmers. Elgin Fishers'
popular band included Bruce
Ryan, Frankie Schram,
Audrey Kerr and impromptu
vocals by Bev Ryan and
Gary Ross. Ebb and Bill
Ross and Sam Wain were a '
delight and everyone had a
great time. Also, Brian
Ainslie with his , Sharp's
Creek Band. Brian with the
mandolin, Fred James and
his fiddle, Brian Petrie and
guitar, Rick Milburn on..bass
violin and Mike Reynolds on
the banjo - created great
entertainment. Gord Har-
rison on piano is always ap-
pr'eci . e!. 1r think he is jlast
GREAT. Ernie Fisher - so
nice to see him home ai=_am.
was a cheery voice all even-
ing and helped with calling
the Square Dances with For-
dyce Clark and Harv. Mcll-
wain.
I am told none of this
would have 0 been possible
without the creative and
hardworking leadership of

If you have any books to
donate, you can call almost
any one of the above and
they will know how to get'
them for the Foundation.
Future Livery events are
planned, sponsored by
C-odurich Arts Foundation, a
non-profit organization. Pro-
ceeds are to be , used for the
restoration of the big old
Livery building to provide a
facility for a Variety of ar-
tistic, theatrical and social
activities. Eileen
Beauchemin - a lovely lady
and hard worker in this
group can help you on any
info you wish to know. Call
her or any other in the group.
The bake sale cake, on
which tickets were sold, wa
donated by Gail Bettger and
won by Donelda McDonald
There now, THAT was an
interesting account of a very
big fun event.
Those nice folks from Ben -
,miller.,. the Zonnevelds, are
selling their place - a
beautiful home, large barn
and the arer.a where they
have trained so many fine
horses. I believe all the
horses except "Senator"
have been sold and two
beautiful large St. Bernard
dogs free if you will give one
or both a nice home.
Something else which
came to my attention -
something which we take for
granted is the great rescue
work which Donald Bert and
son Ian have done over the
years. Just recently they
rescued three people from
the treacherous- waves of
Lake Huron, had them taken
quickly to the hospital and
then returned to rescue the
boat which had been in trou-
ble. They.found it had sprung
a leak and managed to get it
back safely.
I think People here just
take it for granted that they
will risk their lives and.
equipment for people in trou-
ble. But do they get any
.recognition for their deeds?
I've heard, so little about it
and they seem to just take it
in their stride rushing
around - usually in very bad
weather. They'll probably
like to give mea poke in the
nose for bringing this to your
attention, but I know other
people realize how easily the
heroic deeds are passed over
because someone wants `=no
fuss".
They deserve some FUSS
and I hope someone will do
something about it.
This seems to fit me "the
hurrieder•I go, the behinder I
get".
Love, Martha.
