H4e's on bis way down for a the target was bit and tbe seat dunking. Mardi Gras Well over 200 adults and cbldren attended the Fun Fair during the day, many of whom went away as prize winners. Popular events in- cluded tbe bockey sboot, game, of chance, tbe Penny Auction and tbe Silent Auction. The event drawing the biggest crowds was tbe dunk tank. Several band students made tbe plunge and Mr. Niebolas was tbe most popular target being dunk- ed no less than eigbt times. The evening dances attracted over 1125 people. The young and old joined togetber in the gym to dance to 50's and 60's music. The Clarke Senior Stage Band received great crowd support as they played to "rock & rollers" of ail ages. Many tbanks go to tbe commutni- ty for tbeir support of tbis event CÙarke High Sehool Report When Old Friends Meet Witb the niceties of a reunion out of the way one could expect an entertainfing sparing between two rivais as Ann Cowmt-an, a formier memnber of council, took to the podiumi at council on Monday ad- dressing the chairman, Diane Hamre, and the remainder of couni- cil miembers. The former council member quickly delved into the reason of ber visit and address pointing to what she calied tbe devastation of the environmient tbrougb develop- ment. Three proposais were included in a public meeting to which the general public are învited to make comment. AIl three are in the Cour- tice nortb area. Cowman was criticai of council alowing intrusion into the En- vironmentai Protection areas which were deliniated by a past study by Gartiey-Lee. The Farewell Creek would be turned into a storm sewer due to the cutting of trees and tlit draining of bundreds of acres. She aiso was critical of increasing population densities to fatten the pocket books of deveiopers. "Our chiidrens' heritage is being destroyed," she said. The biame was directed towards counicil of the day. As one would expeet Counc. Hamre was quick to defend the ac- tions of counicil stating ilhat the cou ncil', of today was just as dedicatedt as had she been when a memiber. She noted that the town had passed a tree by-law and would be laying charges. 1The sparing was a bit of the past and one would get the impression thiat eitber wouid wisb the other to take off itbiI the irds to the nortl. Thiaithtoughit brinigs up thOe iname of Annabelie Rickard anid quickly we would like to say it bas nýotingý to do witb the sparing debate ai counicîl. Annabelie gave us a phone eaul last week noting that 33 Tundra Swans bad been feeding in a field just north of iim Rickards and had been there for sometime. We ceriainly appreciate ibai eaul for it gave us one in a ifeiime op- portunity to see such a group in this part of the country. A quick trip on Friday gave us a view of the 33 and then ai six on Saturday evening, we arrived just five minutes before tiriteen iook to fligbt, a great sighit. Wiib 80 inch wing span and those long necks ihey took off to the south-w.est, and we expeet the lake for the night. The Tundra Swan formeriy known as the Wbistiing Swan nest in the far north and possibly have been waiting in the Rickard fields until such as conditions in the north are suited for ibeir return. Another mystery of nature . . . how do they know wben to move on. "Thank you" Annabelle. Briefly back to the Courtice area for Larry Hannah foiiowing last Monday's meeting said he had to agree with mosi of the comments of Ann Cowman. He said the area was beîng destroyed and ihat in no way could he support the proposais that were up for debate ai counicil on Monday.
