The "Home for the Holidays" concert is the second of a series of four concerts being presented by the local concert band. The first sounding of sleigh bells this Sunday comes at 2:00 p.m. Many Christmas greats are featured including, of course, "Sleigh Ride", "March of the Toys", "Jingle Bell Fantasy" and the brassy "Westminster Carol".

The afternoon is sponsored sponsored by 'Investment Planning Council of Canada," Bowmanville. Admission: Adults $8.00, Seniors/Students $6.00. The event happens only once a year, Don't miss it. Band Festival Bate Set for 2001 The Great Canadian Town Band Festival being held in Orono in 2001 will be held on June 15, 16 and 17th. This is some two weeks earlier than this year. It was. felt by the planning planning committee that the July 1st weekend brings in too much competition. The program format -will be similar to that of this year using the same facilities. Special Christmas three-day passes are now available at a savings over that of last year. Enquires and purchases can be made by phoning 983- 9494. Candidate (continued from page 1) us counts for votes, bût didn't include counts for those who voted for the Mayor and didn't didn't bother voting for anyone else. In some cases they [DROs] did and in some cases they didn't," stated Barrie. Gasser stated in her presentation, presentation, "It is in the public's interest that any official who wins an election does so in an election that is fair, where the election results clearly show that all ballots were appropriately appropriately counted or set aside for valid reasons, and that this is appropriately documented." "What instructions were given to election officials and DROs regarding taped envelopes, or envelopes that looked as if they may have been, resealed?" asked Gasser. Were check marks or other marks well within the space proved for the "X" accepted, and how were ballots that appeared to be photocopied handled? Gasser asked. In her November letter to Woo, the Clerk stated, "I have been advised that during the count three ballots were found which did not have printing on the back side. These ballots were rejected from the count by the DROs." Mayor Mutton moved that the matter be dealt with, 'in camera' immediately following following Gasser's presentation. The Mayor said staff have bent over backwards to provide provide this information. Taxpayers have spend enormous enormous amounts of money on this issue, and this has got to stop. Councillor Schell made a motion that Ms. Gasser's delegation delegation and Mr. Woo's questions questions be referred to the Clerk's Office, and that a response be sent to Mr. Woo by Friday, December 15, 2000. In the event the Clerk fails to provide satisfactory documented documented responses to the questions questions posed, Gasser asked that a 'request for a recount-' be added to the December 18th Council Agenda so a remedy can be decided upon by Council. "You owe a clean election result to all candidates both present and future, and to all your constituents," stated Gasser. Clarington Fire Calls The Clarington Fire.
