» Hampton Sparks Tour Dairy Farm Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Wednesday, October 27,1993 ( Happenings from Elizabethville ^ Har mam Balson -- 697-2349 Canadians everywhere are rejoicing. rejoicing. The Blue Jays won the World Scries and what a series it was. Both teams should be congratulated for playing some fine, entertaining baseball. baseball. I am writing this before the election election so I do not know who won. Many local residents got involved by helping with the registration and voting voting process. What ever the outcome, you know you did your part just by voting. In writing this column I have seen and heard how much volunteer work that people do at the local level. Whether you carpool, organize, setup setup tables or buy a box of cookies you're relieving stress off the government government and taking responsibility. Always Always remember, it is you, the people, that make this great country what it is and as Canadians, we have much to be proud of. The Hampton Sparks recently enjoyed enjoyed a visit to the Bowman's Dairy Farm in Enniskillen. Mr. Bowman gave the tour himself. The girls had : ; arrived at milking time so they got to sec the machines and cows in action, i 1 Of course, there were lots of other ' 'bam yard animals to see and hay to roll in. Afterwards, Mrs. Bowman served the girls some homemade treats and refreshments. This was the first time some of these five year olds had been on a farm. All in all it was a ' fun learning experience. ; ' The Hampton Scouts report that i their Apple Day was a success. The LBcavcrs' pumpkin fundraiser went 'l well. Before you know it, Christmas ' tree selling will be taking place. The First Hampton Scouts will be keeping busy the next while making "wood duck houses". What are wood duck houses you ask. I asked the same question. A wood duck is a type of duck that makes its home nestling into hollow trees or hollow logs by the water's edge. So, by providing homes for this species they arc helping helping keep it from extinction. After this project the young men will be making making canoe paddles which I'm sure they will make use of in the spring. Four Hampton Scouts recently went to a Queen's Venture March Up, The Scouts were there to serve as ushers. It was an honour for them all. This next paragragh was Written by 10-ycar old Krista Klawitter. Krista Krista is in her second year of Guiding. She is currently working on her Reporter Reporter Badge. One of the requirements requirements is to write a piece and have it published, so here goes Krista. Last Thursday the First Hampton Guides got together and had an All Around the World Party. Each girl dressed up - as a person from another country and brought in some food from that country. country. We had girls from Hawaii, Portugal, Portugal, China, Japan, Egypt, Italy, Scotland, Scotland, England and many more places. Some of the girls went up and talked about where they came from and showed something they brought from their country. Each girl had a great time and had fun. Thank you, Krista for that finely submitted article. In the next month or so you will hear about other Guiding Guiding events from the other Guides wishing to earn their Reporters Badge as well.

They Speaker Discusses Bioenergetics As New Treatment for Addictions On October 19, Crystal Pages, the book store in Orono, was the scene for a most interesting and fundamental fundamental discussion of alcoholism. Barbara Walker B.Sc., R.N., M.Ed., has, for over three years, been a counsellor with the Bell wood residential addiction addiction centre, and has much to offer on this mind-boggling subject. There is such an enormous amount involved in the recovery of anyone who suffers suffers from an addiction. Often, by the time the person seeks help, he or she has alienated friends, family and coworkers, coworkers, and has to cope with soul- wrenching guilt for actions taken, in addition to the very difficult job of 'getting off the stuff'. Once the addict addict has Tost enough' and treatment is requested (although usually the prime mover is someone other who requests the intervention) then there are a number of measures that can be taken. Bioenergetics, a means of encouraging encouraging healthy feeling states, is an enormous help for the person who may have spent years coping with his or her feelings by blunting them insensate. insensate. Feelings, and how to deal with them cannot be overemphasized here; it's an absolutely critical learning process if one is to recover, and the retrieval can be very difficult. The body does have its own wisdom, fortunately, fortunately, and muscle-stressingbreathing muscle-stressingbreathing exercises (bioenergetics)' can play a large part in freeing up stored information; information which has been literally buried in the muscles, by the , unable-to-cope ill person. continued quilting and those who don't quilt went home early.
