'Scugog Island and area news By Mrs. Earl Reader Sunday, May 28 at 9:45 a.m. will again see the Island Church with a special service for the De- dication of the new electric organ and Memorial book. Many former friends of the Island are expected to come "and enjoy the music of the v & Prince Albert Orchestra, the choir and other musical numbers, as well as a mes- sage from both ministers, Rev. Linstead and Rev. Clarke. Then, there will be the hour of fellowship with refreshments. Last Tuesday night, nine Island Scouts were very happy when they were test- ed in the knowledge they had learned from the nurse, Mrs. Vizely, during eight weeks when they followed the course of the St. John's Ambulance. The result was that the representative was able to present each one with a pin equivalent to a silver badge for First Aid. There are five Cubs who will move up and be invest- ed with the Scouts in June with the result that they can attend camp with the Scouts during the summer. There is a strong desire to start a Brownie Pack. Since one of the Cub leaders would then take over train- ing of Brownies, the result is that a new Cub leader will be needed in the Fall. If anyone is interested, please call Mrs. Bill Bobbie. Mr. Sam Arnold has spent some time in the Oshawa Hospital with a broken hip and is now in the Port Perry Hospital. We trust he will soon be able to return to his home. David Redman is much Port Perry Auto-Truck RUSTPROOFING HWY. 12 & 7A - PORT PERRY, ONT. better after a week in hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Morven Hughes returned from a very pleasant weekend in Belleville where they enjoy- ed the festivities planned for Belleville's anniversary. One particular item of inter- est, was the Mounties in the Musical Ride, as Mrs. Hughes' nephewhas been one of the active riders for 20 years. He joined the force at 18 and has experi- enced a very interesting life. It is not necessary to des- cribe the 'Pioneer Days" weekend at the Museum on the Island as you will read of it elsewhere, as well as in the Toronto Star. Saturday was a little disappointing on account of the rain, but Sunday made up for it. We wish to congratulate the new Curator, Jane Baird and her staff of helpers for such extensive and interest- ing planning. The "Head" U.C.W. sold refreshments and all were kept very busy. The next event will be "Canoe the Nonquon™ on June 3rd. There are some very attractive T-shirts available for this occasion. Les Parkes' water colour prints of the five Museum buildings are very desirable. Don't forget to attend the Hospital Spring Fair this Saturday. As well as a full day in Port on June 3, you can finish the day with the Scugog Island Community dance at the Island Hall. The "Head" and "Grace" U.C.W.'s will have a joint meeting in the Island Church, Wednesday, June 7 and the' following Sunday will be a joint Church Ser- vice conducted by all three U.C.W.'s of the charge with Mrs. Brawn as guest speaker. Keep saving your items for the Institute auction sale in July. On Wednesday of this week, Mrs. Betty Reader leaves for a two-week tour of England. She will meet . her sister of Los Angeles in New York city and from there they will continue together. Her college chil- dren, Raymond and Janet, are now finished for the year and will be able to take over their mother's duties on the farm. Ray- mond has finished his course and is now qualified for employment. Jim Gerrow has finished his college training and is now a full-fledged dentist. He will be employed with Dental Associates in Oshawa. We wish him luck in his new career. Over the weekend, he and his wife and little daughter moved back to the Island home with Jim's parents until further plans are made. On Friday evening, Mrs. Harold Forder and family attended a shower in Don Mills in honour of Anna's approaching marriage. On Sunday, the Island Choir had a higher propor- tionate attendance than the congregation. A week late, on account of the family service, Rev. Clarke gave a wonderful message on Pentecost. To many people © this might not mean much. But it should mean every- thing in our lives today. It was the day of the appear- ance of the Holy Spirit, 50 days after the Resurrection of Jesus. It was the guide of the early Church and the leaders, and must be our guide today. Nations and people have drifted away but Revival seems to be coming closer. Rev. Clarke suggested five minutes a day in prayer by each one who attended on Sunday could do wonders. C.H.S. "Outers Club" trip - By Anne Kristensen Eleven students and four teachers fidgeted all day Thursday at their desks anxious to start off on the Outer"s Club 8th Annual Trip to Terrace Bay. They had an early start, excellent weather and the excited crew made the 1120 km. trip in good time rolling into the cabins on the Steele River about 10:30 Friday morning. After claiming bunks and unpacking the group scat- tered to see the old sites or woodland. The students had 3 full days to hike, fish, explore, take pictures or just relax under the warm sun. Added extras included * climbing Steele Mountain _and walking to the ghost town, Jackfish. The special feature was the sauna where everyone worked up a good hot sweat. Though it was not compulsory the group cooled down by jump- ing into the strong frigid Steele River which runs into Lake Superior. Mr. Payne, showing off his fine fisher- man's technique, opened the catching by reeling in a rainbow trout Friday after- noon. Mr. Fletcher stole the show the next day by hooking a colourful 5 Ib. rainbow trout -- his first fish 'in the eight years he has CONTACT US NOW FOR ALUMINUM SIDING When Men & Material are Available!

Sunday evening came to a close with a campfire and boat race up the beach at the famous Moose-a-pee Creek. The winners of the 1978 Moose-a-pee Creek three finger boat race for navi- gation and speed were Tim Cochrane and Peter Duives- teyn respectively. Mr. R. J. Scott, official organizer, judge and namer of the creek presented extra 'hot dogs as prizes to the nauti- cal captains. Some felt Mr. Payne should have -his "boat" disqualified since it was really a frog but the judge overruled saying it wasn't specified in the rules as to the makeup of the "craft". With small souvenirs such as railway spikes, insul- ators, agates, novel navel rocks, bolts and lots of dirt we very remorsefully set out for home Monday morn- ing as the sun came up. A good time was had by all, in the heart of the country!

Part Two starred the more mature pupils who also worked long hours to attain perfection in their perform- ances. The entire program encom- passed music through the years with piano solos from Bach to Kabalevsky and songs in the Old English Airs tradition, to the very mo- dern,""You Light Up My Life."
