Over 100 Guiders attended attended the dinner at Base Line Community Centre. Guiders traveled from as far as Hali- burton to attend this event. One of the highlights of the evening was a "roast" to Cheryl Curtin. She leaves her post as Division Commissioner Commissioner to work as our Executive Executive Secretary for the Area Office in Oshawa. Many leaders paid a veiy fine tribute to Cheryl for all the great memories that they have from knowing her during her 13 years of Guiding. Guiding. There was a lot of laughter over the many events which Cheryl had been part of. But there is also the sadness in ending THE REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF DURHAM holiday closure I OF SANITARY LANDFILL SITE The CARVVRIGHT TRANSFER STATION will be closed on Mondy, May 22,1989, for the Victoria Day Holiday. ( Normal perations will resume on Tuesday, May 23,1989. j W. A. TWELVETREES, P. ENG. 7 COMMISSIONER OF WORKS her term as our Division Commissioner. Cheryl has said that Guiding is and was her number two love. It has helped her grow and become the wonderful person she is today. When she speaks about Guiding, it comes deep from the heart and soul. In listening to her talk, you get a certain tingle when she speaks about the organization. Guiding is something that once you become become involved - you always remember so many great memories and it goes with you through many stages of your life. As Cheryl said, "Guiding lets you be you and accepts you exactly the way you are." There aren't too many times that you can be yourself yourself and be recognized for it outside of Guiding. It's nice to know that in this, fast- paced world we live in today, today, there's still a place where one can stop and take time to relax and be oneself without fear of ridicule or fear of being criticized. As a leader, I get a very good feeling feeling in knowing that I have helped someone to grow inside inside of herself and that I too am still growing as I follow many new avenues and accept accept new challenges that Guiding has given to me. Guicung will always be a part of Cheryl's life and Cheryl Cheryl will always be a part of Woodland Division's life. To Cheryl, thanks for all the years of service as a volunteer volunteer and thanks for showing leaders what Guiding can mean to each and everyone of them. As our new Division Commissioner, Commissioner, Jane Allan brings with her years of experience and knowledge. She has worked hand-in-hand with Cheryl over the years. Even though she doesn't have the "raised eyebrow" or the knack of the gavel that Cheryl Cheryl is famous for, she will fill the responsibilities with the same wit and knowledge as her and "sister" in Guiding, Cheryl has done. To Jane, may we wish you all the best of luck and success that the new position hold for you. As leaders, we look forward forward to working just as hard in Woodland Division and making you as proud of our Division as Cheryl has been. After the presentations and speeches honouring Cheryl, the group was led in a sing-song. Brenda Lloyd and Lori Wright brought back some of the "good ole songs" from Guiding. It's funny how time passes and the old songs still go on. They pass from generation to generation and still have the same feeling of warmth and friendship that they did when many, of the leaders were Brownies and Guides themselves. ■ All in all, it was a true sharing experience for all the leaders that attended. Thanks Bowmanville - you sure can host a mighty-fine party.

Workers' Compensation Board Commission des accidents du travail In Editor's Mail Dear Editor, Dr. A Clarke released preliminary findings from her studies of the negative health effects one gets from living near a nuclear power station. The results show there is an increase of cases of leukemia. leukemia. It is interesting to hear and read the interpretation of these results. There are those who dismiss the risks as being of little, in any, significance significance and there are others others who feel that any increased increased risk is totally unacceptable and morally wrong. Those people who feel that the risks are insignificant insignificant might have to reevaluate reevaluate their position if they, or one of their children, children, became part of that insignificant insignificant group. There is nothing which will change one's view about risks and preventable accidents accidents than having someone in your immediate family struck down by the unseen, unheard, unfeeling nuclear death. It is somewhat like second hand smoke. Radiation Radiation can affect the innocent children or bystanders rather rather than the controllers, promoters promoters and operators of nuclear nuclear installations. The nuclear promoters will undoubtedly indicate that smoking or living with a smoker increases your chances of negative health effects more than living next to a nuclear power plant. But, is that not akin to debating debating the merits of death by hanging or firing squad? The results are still the same. The results of smoking smoking or living near a nuclear facility are also the same, i.e. a higher risk of negative health effects. We should all be extra careful and carefully weigh the mertits of Hydro's proposal proposal to build Darlington B in the near future in Bowmanville. Bowmanville. Are we willing and able to accept the associated increased health risks to ourselves and our loved ones? If the answer is 'NO' then a second nuclear facility facility in our town is not acceptable. acceptable. J. Veldhuis. The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville.
