It's a scene that almost turns the stomach. Trash lik ral road in Scugog Township. This mess is on the side of the Scugog-Darlington Town e this just dumped alongisde a ru- Line, about a mile east of Durham Road 57. And this is not an isolated case. There are oth- er "dumping grounds" in Scugog that are spoiling the rural landscape. In this day and age of concern for the enviornment, one has to wonder just what is going on in the head of the person responsible for this. 5% des SURE go: aT. Trash, garbage and more garbage of just about every kind 'is spoiling certain rural areas of Scugog Township. This disgusting scene was photographed last week on the Darlington-Scugog un-improved road, east of Durham Road 57. It's a popular area for hikers and horseback riders. Busy time for the Island Cubs and Beavers Have you noticed the many groups of smiling faces in the paper lately? Yes, we realize it signifies the end of another winter season of competition, communi- ty friendships & healthy exercise. It doesn't seem long since all these groups were organizing and planning their winter programs. . The Island Cubs & Beavers have been extremely busy getting inon environment interests, mak- ing money & having group fun as recorded in the following paragraphs: - 2nd Scugog Beavers and Cubs have been very busy over the past few weeks. On May 6 we had Trees for Canada, hosted by Akela, David Wood and family. The boys planted approximately 500 trees and cooked their own lunch over an open camp fire. Congratula- tions to all the boys who helped raise $225.00 in pledges and to Alan Wolf and family who raised $71.00 of that total. Alan will be presented with a Cub ring at the year-end banquet in recognition of his effort. On Tuesday, May 8 and Wednesday May 9 the boys par- ticipated in Pitch-In-Week.

Lastly, on Saturday, May 12 the Beavers joined in the Annual Beaveree. This year it was hosted by 1st Uxbridge colony A, at Elgin Park and we would like to thank them for organizing a wonderful day. The theme this year was the circus which included a full day of games, fun and a finale parade with all the boys in circus make- up and costumes. Our Beaver Col- ony's contribution to the day was the bean bag toss. We would like to thank Howard Wolf for his marvelous life sized Ninja Turtle and Clown apparatus; a lot of ef- Waterline extension A watermain extension on Mary Street and Josephine Street in Prince Albert is being considered for inclusion in the region's 1991 budget for water supply. Scugog regional councillor Yvonne Christie submitted a petition to the region's works department. The petition was signed by seven of the 12 affected proper- ty ownerson Mary Street. According to a works report, the estimated cost of construct- ing the watermain on Mary Street is $72,000. Over $26,000 would be recovered by the abut- ting property owners, leaving the regional expense at $45,400. The Josephine Street water- main is being recommended by the works department to con- nect the Mary Street and Union Avenue watermains. Both of those watermains come to a dead-end and connecting them would 'complete a loop. This would result in better service to the area residents and cut down maintenance in flushing the mains. The estimated cost of the ad- ditional main is $89,000, with only $2,139 being recovered from the homeowners. A Played subdivision for the north side of Josephine Street will help contribute to the cost. fort went into their making and both were a big HIT with the boys. Another special thank you should go to our leaders Rainbow, Sylvia Wolf, and Akela, David Wood for their continuous effort on behalf of the boys. The leaders have been very dedicated and you'll note the interest and in- spiration given by Howard, Sylvia and David Wolf. There are also wonderful unnamed leaders. It's too bad the Scouts never did find a leader to support them. But maybe next year some interested person will move in. So don't get discouraged. : I'm sure you all received an at- tractive green flier last week, just beautifully designed and offering HELP by the ladies of the In- stitute. I'd like to know who il- lustrated this catchy notice. Of course you know it reminds us of their always successful, annual yard sale. Remember the day Ju- ly 7. On Mother's Day or Christian Family, Sunday, Michael & David, sons of Joseph and Debra McIntyre were baptized at the Island United Church. The Island Pot-Luck Suppers for families of the United Church, followed by Historical Research are quite a success and renew: remembrance and discussion among older families and disclose many interesting facts to new families who have chosen to establish their homes on the Island. June 1 will finalize the" series and the climax will fall on Pentecost Sunday June 3 with Communion and relate to a truly "United"' Church.
