The village is also home of Lakefield College School famous for its royal students like Prince Andrew and Prince Philip of Spain. Among the shops on the main street is one called 'Me Artisans". It's where 28 artists and craftspeo ple display their work. It's a small shop. Some of the artisans work rigbt there upon occasion, but mostly they just drop off what tbey want to display, and then go back to tbeir own individual studios. They t ake turns minding the store, share the rent, and sbare their artistic talents. What sets them apart is the variety of tbings they do and the wide range of their ages. But most of all their unbridled exuberance! 1 first heard about them wben 1 had a letter from April Sherwood, one of the original organizers. It was wnitten in longhand in a racy style as if the writer was breathlessly conveying the message. She ended the letter witb "please excuse tbe writing, my entbusiasm outweigbs my ability with a typewriter."
