-\ ■ i 1 By Brad Kelly Natural Ice Rinks are a Possibility for Winter Co-operation from volunteers could result in the Town of Newcastle having natural outdoor ice rinks this winter. Parks and Cemetery Superintendent, James Cameron, of the Community Community Services Department, is seeking support for the idea from residents within the Town of Newcastle. This support would take the form of citizens volunteering some time to help flood and clean the ice surfaces. Though no areas have been designated yet, Cameron is hoping to establish establish the natural ice rinks on the infield of baseball diamonds around the town. The two diamonds at Memorial Park in Bowmanville, Laker Park in Newcastle Village, and the diamond at Orono Park come to mind as excellent possibilities. y All of the above facilities are in open areas, with ample seating already already in place for kids and adults to change into a pair of skates. There is also the possibility of initiating the rinks on the fields of schools, but an agreement with the school boards would have to be in place before the task of setting up a rink could be undertaken. Natural ice rink programs have enjoyed some success in the past in Lindsay and Scarborough. The main drawback to this type of program -- especially in this area -- is the unseasonable weather that we have become accustomed to. A mild spell in the middle of winter can destroy a lot of hard work. The idea to start a program is a good one. Providing, of course, that the Community Services Department receives offers of help from enough volunteers to make it worthwhile. The natural rinks would provide hours of play for area kids, as well as enabling an entire family to get outside and enjoy a day of playing some shinny, or simply going for a leisurely skate. The deadline for volunteering to be a part of a natural ice program in your area is Friday, September 25. Contact James Cameron at 623-3379. I'm standing on the ninth green of a golf course just outside of Bob- caygeon last week lining up a putt when the missus gave a warning holler. holler. Looking back onto the fairway, a ball bounded twice onto the green and rolled towards me where it came to a stop after hitting my foot. A couple of holes earlier, the same guy rolled his tee shot right beside us in the fairway. A glare back towards the tee blocks obviously had little effect. I don't know what this guy scored on the ninth hole, but if he is a true golfer, he should have added two strokes for a lost ball. After hitting me in the foot, his ball took flight into the knee-high grass about 100 feet to the right of the green. I married a chef over four years ago, so incidents like the following wouldn't happen tome. ' On the first night of our holidays last week at the parents' cottage, my only responsibility for preparing supper was to light the barbecue. After turning on the propane, lighting a match, then opening the valve, the match blew out. Another match was quickly lit, and placed in the manual lighting hole. Oh, it lit all right. The flame surrounded my face as it shot from the barbecue. Surprisingly, my contacts didn't melt to my eyeballs. For two days, we carefully lit the barbecue with wooden matches that measured 18 inches in length. It wasn't until the middle of the week, while telling my younger sister about my adventure, that embarrassment set in. Without hesitation she ventured out to the barbecue, and lit it using the ignition button. Why I didn't try the button myself in the first place, I'll never know. If I ever do come up with an explanation, the hair, eyebrow and eye- ashes on the left side of my face will be the first to hear about it. They didn't take too kindly to being badly singed in the ordeal. V : ---- : > KENDAL EAGLES -- With a berth in the All-Ontario 'D' finals in Courtright during Labour Day Weekend secured, the Kendal Eagles will now embark on winning their EOBA league playoffs.
