It allows them to sit out- side in the evenings. The neighbourhood always has interesting activities including a remote control car that mystifies Maplewood's cat Pumpkin. Thanks to Rob Core for the fun. Another summer treat to be enjoyed is barbecued food. This month the residents agreed that hamburgers and hot dogs tasted especially delicious cooked outside. The residents of Maplewood engaged in another favorite summer pastime and went on a fishing trip. Thank you to Jim Brown Sr. for the fishing rods and worms, and Larry Dolmage for fishing rods for the day. It was soon apparent that the fish off the pier in Bayfield were not very cooperative at being caught but they certainly were good at eating the worms. Those residents who chose to fish settl- ed down in lawn chairs on the pier while others looked at the beautiful boats in the harbor and went to the park. The last stop before returning to Maplewood was at the fish market to purchase fresh fish for dimmer!!! 'Thank you to volunteers Anne Downey , Inge Lindemann and Bill Papple for 'helping with the outing. The monthly resident meeting was held on July 10.

One of the baking club members has reminisced of a time when chocolate chips, walnuts or raisins were only used in those cookies served on Sunday when the minister might come calling.
