There was much laughter, as well as hard work, during the tug-o-war competition at the Cartwright High School Winter Carnival last Friday afternoon. The way the weather's been any longer, going, it's a good thing the school didn't wait or else it might have been "celebrating a Spring Carnival! Many sure signs of spring here Seagrave and Area News by Marilyn Beacock I spotted the first robin of the' season last weekend--a sure sign that spring is, hopefully, just around the corner! The snow drifts are gradually diminishing and the.ice on Lake Scugog is looking thinner by the minute. Soon the crocus' will be peeping their heads out of the earth and from then on.bring on the warm weather! Another sure sign of spring' is maple syrup production and if you and the kids are wondering what to do during the spring break the Seagrave Playschool have rented a bus and will be travelling to the Pur- ple Woods Conservation Area to see first hand how clear sap is turned in- to a golden amber liquid that tastes so delightful it defies description. The bus leaves from the Seagrave Church parking lot about 10:55 a.m. on Friday March 30 and cost per person is 50 cents. Registration for minor ball will be held atthe Seagrave United Church on Friday, March 20 from 6-8 p.m. and on Saturday, March 21 from 1-3 and Wagon. A new set of driving standards.
