Student Employment Adult Games Day Held Saturday at Museum The Canada Employment Centre /for Students is having a successful /and busy summer once again -- I thanks to YOU! Well over one ' thousand students within this area require summer employment in order to fund their education. Because Because jobs, and especially summer jobs, are of rare existence, very little little hiring occurs in our local factories, factories, retail and service industry and construction. Fortunately, many homeowners have hired students students this summer for property clean-up, house repairs, painting, babysitting and housecleaning or just for a few hours to help with moving, install a pool, level topsoil and other odd jobs. Not only have homeowners been of great help, but also local businesses businesses and organizations. I wish to take this opportunity to express the biggest thank-you to Mayor Rickard and council, The Canadian States man, local banks and stores and individuals individuals who helped tremendously tremendously to support "Hire A Student" week in June, and members of the Rotary Club for the crazy and fun baseball game. Benefits of our service to employers employers and homeowners are: our service service is free of charge, a large number of students with a variety of skills, talents and experience are eager and willing to do anything, students are pre-screened to suit your needs and the service is quick. You can hire a student for any length of time by phoning 623-9221 or visit the office in the Bowman- ville Mall. Thanks again for your help and support. Sincerely, Pat Lunn Student Placement Officer Oshawa Highland Games Ready to Go August 6th The second annual Oshawa Kinsmen Highland Games will be held at Civic Fields, Saturday, August 6th, 1983. It was founded last year by the Oshawa Kinsmen which have established the Highland Games in Oshawa as an annual event. The hearts of over 5,000 people were in the Highlands of Scotland, last July 31, as people came from all over Ontario to join in the first annual Oshawa Kinsmen Highland Games. Organizers are expecting a similar turnout turnout this August. Unlike Maxwell, Fergus and Speyside, the. name Oshawa may sound strange as a host city for a Highland Games, but the success of these games has made the Oshawa Kinsmen Kinsmen Highland Games an annual event on the Ontario Highland Games circuit. To trace the beginnings of this first time project, one must go back to September, 1981. A fledging group called the Highland Games Association decided that there should be a Highland Games in the area. After combining Scottish heritage with Kinsmen organizational organizational skills, and weekly, meetings beginning in October, October, 1981, and ending with games held the last Saturday in July of 1982, it was not long before every member of the club was involved in some of the sub-committees such as programs, catering, setup, security and public relations. When the day finally arrived, arrived, it seemed like everyone had a little bit of Scottish blood in them. Kilts in almost every tartan in existence could be seen on competitors, organizers organizers arid spectators. The competitors ranged from bonnie wee lasses with their kilts swirling as they danced to the bagpipes, to the brawnie large lads with their kilts swirling as they prepared to toss the 120 pound cabers. While the entire Oshawa Kinsmen Club worked at their various duties, the crowd in attendance was treated to a Scottish spectacular. There was a demonstration of a musket drill provided by the Olde 74th Highland Regiment Regiment from Thornhill. And while the 200 Highland Dancers continued all day at one end of the stadium, there were demonstrations by the Maple Leaf Judo Club and the Oshawa Gymnastics Club in the centre and a Scottish Merchant Village at the other end. Scottish music filled the air, as the Oshawa, Bowmanville, Highland Creek, Ajax, Midland Midland and Collingwood Legion Pipe Bands played many of the traditional Scottish favourites. favourites. There were also the Scottish Heavy Athletic Events such as the Caber Toss, Stone Throws and the Tug-of-Wars. In the competitive division of the tug-of-war, the team from Nissouri Township beat the previously undefeated Canadian Champion Metro Toronto Police A. Team. Making the games truly international, the United Auto Workers trophy for best drum major went to Jim Crozier, a Belfast Ireland native, who is stationed in Meaford, Ontario, undergoing training for the British Army. One of the highlights of the day was a presentation of the Kinsmen Sword by President Lawrence Worrall to Leslie May of London, Ontario. Over 250 Highland dancers were eligible for the draw of this genuine gold plated Wilkinson Sword. It was during the celebration, celebration, that the grand prizte of a Trip to Scotland for Two was awarded to Isabelle Coyle of Scarborough. At the end of the night, when the lights were being turned off, Kinsmen were already making plans for this year's "2nd Annual Oshawa Kinsmen Highland Games". 5*sSSt«S SCOTTY'S COLLECTABLES antiques, collectables, gifts and knitwear Now Located EVERY SUNDAY at Oshawa Bazaar and Flea Market 727 Wilson Rd.
