A Forrester Roy C. Forrester - Edtor and Manager Getting Off The Ground It was beginning to appear that Centennial year was going ta pass in titis municipality almost without too much concerni or activity. The picture begins to change and same enthusiasm breaks; forth in one or two sectors. Further to this one suggeston that hasi been voiced should be given seriaus consideration. Drring the past week the Orono Park Board has ;core forth with a project that is now well in the planning stage. The event is ta be a beef Bar-BQ held in the park. We understand that the beef is being donated and that fixnancing for a professional chef for the occasion i5, also available. This is the beginning- and the interest in the project could certainly snowball. In addition the Orono Amateur Athletic Association tnocw plans an Amateur contest along with a parade of an-, tique fire engines and a dance. This ;event, we understand, is ta be held in the same week asi the Park Board's BarB-Q. It has been suggested, and we believe there is a lot of merit in the suggestion. that a week' activities be planned fram a Wednesday to a Sunday, ail in the samne week- In other word, "an old home week". This4 ýwll take somýIne ca-rdination but'such a plan would have more !im- pjact than events scattered throughout the year. Pei-sons wvishing to revisit Orano and area would be more inclined ta dû o svhen the community is a beehive of activity. Lo(cal cîizens often recail the Centennial celebratian held iizi Orano in thet 1930s when activities were in high gear fo>r three or four days. This proposai, is ta be advanced ta the Towniship Centennial Committee at their next meeting. The Centennial week could certainly include the Bar B-Q, the amateur concert, parade and dance, alonig with the planed art show, band concert, harness racing, a swim shew, opening of the new park area and,- nature trail and coftluided with an open air.church service at the park, which we alsoý understand is being planned. Ideas are un- limitedi providing the initiative ùq prese.nt. As we have saidibefore the impact.of the Centennial velebration would be much greater placedi withln one week this summer rathier than spread ouýt aver the year -Any comments . . . send us a letter.
