Canada 7•cna Member of the Canadian Community Newspaper Association and the Ontario Community Newspapers Association Val's Views Valerie Gillies Fall Fairs have come and gone The Fall Fairs for Huron -Kinloss have successfully been delivered and enjoyed for 2015. Some images and information on the Ripley Fall Fair have been included in this edition of the Sentinel with more to come in the Future. More memories of the Luc - know Fall Fair have also been included. Be sure to read the captions under each photo to get the full story. The Belgrave School also had their own Fair. This is the 95th annual fair at the school.It is remarkable that one of the people who attended the very first one was also in attendance this year. Thank you to Marilyn Gilchrist for sub- mitting the tribute to Mary McIntosh. It is an honour to be able to include the sto- ries of those who contribute to and shape the community. Another amazing story of contribution is that of eight year old Maraya Schiestel raising funds for the Wingham Hospital Foundation. Her grandfather and the rest of her family must be very proud of her. It was recognized that Lucknow is also a significant contributor to the Kincardine Superwalk. After years of research, study and nego- tiations, natural gas will be coming to Huron -Kinloss as well as Kincardine and Arran-Elderslie. It is hoped to be here in 2016. EPCOR has already begun making the contacts and arrangements necessary to make this happen as quickly and effi- ciently as they can without overburdening the taxpayers involved. Doglovers will appreciate the featured artist at the Goderich Coop Gallery for October. "Good Dog" includes sketches of the artist's own dog in various poses. As we move into the autumn, remem- ber to share your stories and photos (in .jpg format please) with the readers of the Sentinel. Please remember to include names of people in the photos.

Happy Birthday to Dor- othy Needham, Diane McCulloch and Kathy Rear. We pray that all the folks who are in the hospi- tal recover quickly and are able to return home soon. Great to see the fences going up for the fair and seeing the trailers moving in for Carter Shows Limited. Sympathy to family of Mary McIntosh and to the faimily of Emily McGregor and all the other families that are grieving. Congratulations to Mar- tha and Fred at the "R" Villa condo's at the north end of Ripley. Their off- spring Charlie is looking very good in the Fall Fair Display. Also thanks to everyone who has set up bale displays. Great Job folks. If you have a chance, it is worthwhile to check them out and see how tal- ented and imaginative ideas went into putting these displays together. Thanks to the ladies of the Ripley Legion for host- ing the Alzheimer Coffee Break on Thursday morn- ing. It was very well attended and much appreciated by the folks in the Village and surround- ing area. Our sympathy goes out to Irma(Foster) Henderson and family on the death of her husband Ross. Many of us remember attending Lucknow News Ruth Dobrensky Now that the Ripley Fall Fair is over for another year, anyone who hasn't had their fill of fairs will have to go further afield to get their fixes until next year. The mammoth parade was indeed a mammoth one and every- one who was there enjoyed it immensely. I read with interest about Bruce Garden Har- vest Dinner in last week's paper, my nephew Nick and I visited there on our ice cream trail adventure this past summer and were quite impressed with the great variety of foods being grown. The dinner sounds like something for me to take part in next year, but I must admit to not knowing what a row salad is. I even looked it up on Google with no result, so if anyone can let me know what a row salad is, I will be eternally grateful. I also noticed that the Wawanosh 4-H Pollinators went to the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory out- side of Cambridge. I took Nick there last summer, which in case anyone is interested, is on the same road that I grew up on, Kos- suth. The school, also called Kossuth is further down the road. It is now and has been for a long time, a Hungarian social club. The school and road were named for Hungarian Louis (Lajos) Kossuth, a hero of the 1848 revolution. When Kossuth closed as a school back in the 60's, the Hungarians (refugees from the 1956 Hungarian upris- ing) bought it and turned it into a club. Notice how they were then referred to as refugees whereas now people fleeing from oppression and revolution dances when he played with our Don Roberson and company. Don and Marilyn Reid visted and had supper with Bob and Joyce Court- ney of Point Clarke area Sunday evening. Ladies don't forget to have your wonderful pies ready to take to the fair for Saturday, as always we know everyone looks for- ward to them and there never seems to be enough to go around. It looks good for the fair day and this year there are many inter- esting attractions to be had for young and old alike, so plan on attending. See you there and remember to take your camera along for those precious moments we seem to experience when we are there. are being called "migrants". Last week the Queen (Pat Weir) and Queen Mum (Ruth Dobrensky) of the Lucknow Sepoy Ranees attended a Queens luncheon in Han- over. These lunches take place twice a year so that all the area Red Hat groups can fill each other in on events and happen- ings in their groups. We also have a lot of fun. The theme at last week's meet- ing was to celebrate our different ethnicity. Pat dressed in red, white and blue for England and I dressed in yellow and blue for Ukraine. Sympathy of the com- munity to the families of: Mickie Wight, 89, Ford- wich (formerly Lucknow and Wingham); Mary Anna McIntosh, 81, Luc - know; Gordon Maize, 85, Lucknow; and, Colin DiCastri, 70, Point Clark.
