I 1 i i 22 ' The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvilic, Wednesday, January 8,1992 rT. Citizens of the Town of Newcastle met on Sunday with a new team of leadership in Mayor Diane Hamre's New Year levee held in the Council Chamber of the Town's Administrative Administrative Centre in Bowmanvilic. Bowmanvilic. Mayor Hamre, who was elected in November, broke with tradition and held the annual annual event the Sunday after New Year's Day. She maintains maintains that the first day of a new year should be reserved for the family. A handsome crowd of New- castlcrs paid their respects and said Happy New Year to the mayor and her new seven- member Town Council - four of them newly elected. Courticc's own Larry Hannah Hannah and Mary Novak were among the councillors standing to the right of the mayor in the receiving line at the official reception. reception. A newcomer to the annual affair observed that while the social event proved to be amiable, amiable, sadly there was among the well-wishers only a handful of citizens who appear to be within within the 20-io-SO age group. The vast majority. of the well-wishers, with the exception exception of a few children who accompanied accompanied them, appear to be well over the 50-and-abovc age group. This contrasted somewhat with the scene witnessed at Ms. Hamre's campaign office on King St. in Bowmanvilic on the night of the November 12 municipal elections. Quite a number of "younger" "younger" Ncwcastlcrs were seen dropping in to provide some sort of encouragement to a then-anxious mayoral candidate. candidate. And at 48 minutes past midnight midnight when Ms. Hamre was unofficially unofficially declared the winner quite a number of "younger" well-wishers also were seen congratulating the mayor-elect. Where were the "younger" Ncwcastlcrs between 30 minutes minutes past mid-day and 2:30 p.m. last Sunday? One well-wishers at the mayor's levee suggested that the "younger" ones might be at a hockey game. One was slated for that afternoon. "Or", he added, "they might be busy trying trying to make some money." Could it also be that the younger ones are just apolitical! apolitical! One comes across a good many residents of subdivisions subdivisions in the fast-growing Courticc who appear to be within the 20-to-50 age group. Many of them arc emigrants from Toronto and other nearby communities. They've chosen Courticc mainly because of its relatively inexpensive property prices and the community's rural-urban rural-urban residential lifestyle. The newcomers could be a strong backbone of an economically economically prosperous Courticc of tomorrow. They need to be enticed and cultivated by long-time residents residents as well as politicians of Courticc. Many views had been expressed expressed and promises made by contending politicians during their campaigning for that November November municipal elections.
