Hampton News By Wilma Kantor This seems an opportune time to review some of the events which took place in Hampton in 1986. There were many changes in the church as we lost our organist Norm Watson and our minister Rev. Robin Thompson. Rev. Thompson left to take a position at Lawrence Park United Community church.fl The three charges joined together to bid her farewell at a pot luck luncheon. We were fortunate to have Rev. Victor Levan and Marjorie Levan begin an interim here in October. Since they began their ministry they have had all the members of the combined charge visit with them at the manse. This was a first for me. We have not been so fortunate in replacing our organist. The search for this special person goes on. Since Zion has decided to go on their own, the Hampton charge will become a two point, charge of Hampton and Solina in 1987. This means we will all have to work a little harder to increase membership membership and raise money. The Sunday School sponsored Family Night and pot luck supper was very successful. They hope to make this an annual event. A nuclear waste site .,'pjanned for this area was I successfully defeated due to a jot of hard work by local citizens and politicians. Ross Metcalf of Hampton received the W.F.Thom award for outstanding contributions in education. Ross retired from his position as music consultant in December. The Scouting and Guiding movements all had increased enrollment in 1986 which meant they needed new leaders. These groups must be doing something right as enrollment increases every year. Tanya Katela, a pathfinder visited England with money raised by the Guides' cheese sales. She enjoyed her trip and got to visit Buckingham Palace. The Women's Institue sponsored a Quilt and Craft show which had over 100 quilts on display. Some of the quilts were 80 years old. There were three Centennial quilts shown. The Institute also sponsored a 4-H Club last year. Under the leadership of Barbara Hindman this 4-H group successfully completed three clubs. They were "Etiquette for the 80's", "A Gardening Club" and a "Milk Makes It Club". There were too many sports events taking place at the schools and over the summer months to list all the outstanding outstanding teams and players. Soccer and baseball dominated the summer sports scene with Hampton teams doing well in these games. M. J. Hobbs school grade 8 classes started a new venture in 86 by taking a trip to Ottawa. They plan to do this again in 87. Hampton Junior school presented two successful concerts. The first one in the spring was titled a Cabbage Patch Dream and the second a Christmas concert featured a medley of Christmas songs and a play titled Santa's Video Voyage, A public speaking contest was also held at the school with Brian Walker winning for his speech on Robots. Now for an update of recent events. Last Wednesday, Fred and Ruby Griffen took 1st and 2nd prizes at the card party followed by Leonard Cain, Edith Clemens and Bernice Renton. Low score was won by Leslie Taylor and Ruby Griffen had the most lone hands. Draw winners were Leonard Cain, Leslie Taylor and Steve Arlytn. The first meeting of the Hampton Institute for this year was held at the homo of Grace Chant on Tuesday, January 6 at 1:80.

Speedy recovery to News from St ark ville The roll call was answered with a New Year's Resolution. The most popular resolution was to lose weight. This was closely followed with exercising exercising and improving our attitude towards others. The motto read by Bernice Renton told how we should be more tolerant of the faults of other people as none of us is perfect. The consumer report read by Marg Hall told us thirty-one different ways to save money when buying meat. Barbara Macklin read a report on the convention she attended in Toronto. She said the main concerns of different branches was raising money and ways of obtaining new members. The majority feel that we should change the format of meetings. Marion Lewis gave a thought- provoking. talk on forming resolutions. When making a resolution we should think it through thoroughly as no issue is either black or white but all issues contain a grey area. As an example of this she read an article from Newsweek magazine on abortions. In this issue it was stated that both the Pro Life people and the groups favoring abortions are radical and fail to see the pregnant mothers dilemma. . The meeting was closed with the | Lord's Prayer. A delicious,lunch and social time .followed.:!, ,.; _ Night Courses Offered at Bowmanville High School by Tammy Hill A combined evening class program which is being organized organized at Bowmanville High School this year offers six brand-new courses as well as the more popular subjects from previous night school sessions. Beginning on January 19, 1987, new courses being offered offered at the school are: Coaching Level 1 Theory; Conversational French; Microcomputer Programming; Programming; Positive Parenting; Sign Language; and Sing for Fun. This year, courses formerly formerly offered in Courtice, Clarke, and Bowmanville high schools will be consolidated consolidated into a single program operating out of Bowmanville Bowmanville High School. Norm Johnson, evening class administrator at Bowmanville Bowmanville High School, said, "We are offering a greater variety of courses and we have tried to come up with new ones as well." In addition to offering new courses, the school has removed some programs which were not receiving high levels of enrollment. Bowmanville High School was selected as the site of the night school courses because because it is halfway between Clarke and Courtice. The secondary schools were forced to work out of one facility since there were not enough classes to justify a separate program in each school. Although the classes are presently running at Bowmanville Bowmanville on a trial basis, Mr. Johnson feels confident that once people arc aware of the combined evening school program, enrollment will begin to increase. The combined fall session session resulted in 179 registered registered night students, which is still somewhat lower than last year's total of over 200 registrations. Mr. Johnson commented that he would .like to see closer to 200 sltfdents enrolled enrolled in the upcoming winter session. Each general interest class runs two hours a week fora len week period and is required to have a minimum of 12-15 students per class. by M.L.
