Senior Citizen's Bus Trip At eight o'clock on the morning of July 12th, 37 Senior Citizens and our dependable, courteous and genial bus driver, Harry Burley and his wife, left Newcastle for Agawa Canyon. We stayed at the Windsor Hotel in Sault Ste Marie. Sault Ste Marie has a population of 80,000 and is the Gateway to Algoma. The word Algoma comes from an ab- breviation of the Indian word Gitchegomee meaning Sea of Algonquins. The French name Saut de Sainte Marie, trans- lated Falls of Saint Mary, refers to the St Mary's Rapids and was given by the Jesuit Missionaries who founded their mission on this site in 1668. After supper at the Hotel some of us donned warmer clothing and attempted to get some exercise. The evening was really cool and seemed like a late fall night, necessit- ating a brisk walk to keep warm. We had to be up and ready to leave the hotel by our bus at 7:15 the next morning. Break- fast was to be served on the Agawa Canyon train. While waiting for Harry to pick up our tour tickets at the station, Lewis and Phyllis Clark pulled up in their camper. Our group was given a coach on the train. The tour was well orgainized. The two dining cars were placed in the middle of the train and as your car number is called, you go for your meal. The breakfast was excellent and reasonably priced. The coaches are roomy and comfortable. A leaflet on the tour is supplied, telling of specific points of interest from a scenic point of view. These points are shown opposite the scheduled time and approximate mileage north of Sault Ste Marie. The terrain is similar to Bancroft as you are still in the Laurentian Shield and the trees growing there are birch, Don't Miss Out on Great Savings WE MADE A SPECIAL PURCHASE FROM OUR SUPPLIERS TO OFFER THESE SAVINGS YOU!

During January, February and March the first Snow Tours are to be conduct- ed to the Agawa Canyon. It is said to be the most scenic spot east of the Canadian Rockies. There are three engines on the train and the train can't travel fast. You look out the window in one direction and you see the engine, in the opposite direction the caboose is snaking around the curves. At mileage 102 to 114 the train starts a descent of 500 feet in 12 miles to the floor of the Canyon. Upon arrival at mile 114 at approximately 11:10 a.m., the train pulled into the siding and passengers detrained for a pienic lunch which we were able to purchase on the train. Picnic tables and benches are avail- able in a park setting. Swings and slides are provided for the young, and horseshoe pitching and fishing for the older athletes. There is à look-out trail with an intermediate look -out. Beyond is a steep clinb up the Canyon wall to the upper look-out, which pro- vides a magnificent view of the Canyon. With so much foliage on the trees, you have tô climb to the upper level to be able to see the surrounding country. It takes the average person about 35 minutes to make the complete trip up the trail. At least three of our group made it to the top. While we were picnicking, the engines were switched from the front to the rear of the train ready for the return to Sault Ste Marie. Back in the city, some caught the bus back to the hotel for supper, cards or a show. Others took a two-hour tour of the city by double decker bus and the Clarks took a two-hour boat cruise through the locks. The city tour covers 22 miles and the major points of Withhold Approval For Mobile Homes pproval for a mobile home par near the village of Newcastle was narrowly vot- ed down at a meeting of Regional Council two weeks ago. The park, proposed by Rice Construction company,would be located south and west of the village and designed for retired people. David Rice, in a presenta- tion to regional council July 7, estimated that the proposed Wilmot Creek Cove Retire- ment Park would bring asses- sment of $466,000 to the Town of Newcastle. He added that the residents of the park would not require jobs in the municipality since they would be retired. He added that they wouldn't need services such as interest. After one half of it is covered, those in the top deck change with the lower. The seats are certainly more comfortable below. The tour went past the Windsor Hotel. In fact, it was one of the interesting points. I think the gracious young lady who was our guide gave that for our benefit. Wednesday morning we left for home at 8:30. Soon we were going down the highway, singing merrily. Then Gordon Martin told jokes and gave some readings. Dinner stop was at Lively. Harry had made arrangements for this meal on Monday. As the bus travelled along after dinner, everyone seemed to be napp- ing or very quie.t. No more stops until the Fireside on Hwy. 35 for supper and then home. Those responsible for the trip are to be congratulated for a very enjoyable three days. DON'T MISS THESE TERRIFIC VALUES!

Mr. Rice asked regional council that his company's property be slated for a mobile home park on the Durham Region draft Official Plan. Speaking in favor of the designating the Rice property The Canadian Statesman, Bowmrinvillr J y 21, 1976 il for the mobile home park, Councillor John DeHart- (Oshawa) said the park had been already approved by the former Clarke township and the Town of Newcastle. Newcastle council had ap- proved the park in September, 1975. Speaking against the desig- nation, Clark Mason, chair- man of the region's planning and development committee, said the property shouldn't be slated for a mobile home park until a regional study on such pa , î completed. That study is expected to be finished in a few months. Newcastle Councillors Hobbs and Tink voted in favor of designating the Rice pro- perty for the mobile homes. Councillors Lyall and Rickard voted against the designation. When the votes had been tallied, regional council had a tie vote of 14 for and 14 against. The tie was broken by Regional Chairman, Walter Beath, who cast a negative vote.
