BRAT = vhon'e = "A Family Tradition for 127 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Wednesday, August. 4 1993 - 15 Annual Greenbank Beef Barbecue held From Page 10 cheese and 1.3 million lbs. but- ter, 2 million gal. ice cream which is imported to Hong Kong. A Canadian citizen start- ed this cheese production. We viewed Mt. St. Helen's in Washington state and McReni- er, 14,000 ft. up. Here we trav- elled along the Oregon Trail again, in Dalles, Oregon. Irrigation is on every side of the road and so potatoes, onions and beef are the famous crops, as in Idaho. We saw a re- enactment of people on Oregon trails 150th anniversary of the famous ride. In Salt Lake City, we toured the Mormon Choir Temple. The Salt Lake itself is 1,000 square miles. In Idaho, we visited Butch Cassidy's home. Here we saw a truckload of carrots from Ontario, Cana- da for flood victims. * In Wyoming, we were in the Teton Range and on to Yellow- stone Park, famous for Old Faithful geyser and hot springs. At Big Horn mountain, the highest peak is 18,000 ft. We were 8,300 ft. up above the clouds. At Mt. Rushmore, we took more pictures of the fa- mous. carved rock faces of four presidents. In the Black Hills of South Dakota, we saw the Bad- lands and crossed the Missouri again. It is 2,464 miles long, the longest river in the U.S.A. As we drove for miles through this canyon, one feels a spirit really touched the earth here. In Mitchell, S.D., Laura Ingles lived. As we passed Des - Moines, water lay in the fields everywhere. Where we stayed in Coralville, a woman was res- cued from the raging Iowa river only two blocks from our hotel. We drove through four states our last day and learned there are salt mines one mile below Detroit city as in Windsor, too. Muriel Gibson and her sister, Marion and I are weary travel- lers now along with Jean and Walter Gould of Uxbridge, who made up 38 persons on our bus. Our tour guide, Evelyn Hicks, took such good care of us, now we hope our pictures will prove just how far we travelled and what we saw on our trip to the Wild West. "Rain - Rain, go away!" This was the song on Friday, as the - hard dedicated workers pre- pared for the Annual Green- bank United Church Barbecue. However, nearly 1,000 persons were served, using 827 pounds of beef. Everyone said it was the most delicious beef ever served at our barbecue. The two quilts were auctioned off by our own Neil Bacon. Mrs. Barbara Evans won the queen-sized, homemade quilt made by Larry Postil's mother. $425 was the top bid. The baby quilt's new owner is George VandeWalker, donated by Noreen Cook. Special visitors were Ross Stevenson, Yvonne Christie and Alex Sheperd. The four granddads of Ux- bridge entertained us. Too, the Greenbank Steppin' Cloggers performed, showing us the top talent we have in Greenbank. Larry Postil said this year's goal was to recruit new young members to help out at next year's big event. Dave Robinson and his son Craig are new vol- unteers to help this year. You can call Larry at 985-8123 to of- fer your help. The Organ Fund is $550 richer from the proceeds of the quilt's and granddad's do- nation. Our sincere thanks to every- one who volunteered to make this happy event such a suc- cess. Again the ladies helped and also made such delicious pies. Only the hard work of all involved can bring this commu- nity together as it did on that Rainy Friday. Thank you Larry and your hard-working crew. Visiting Fred and Iva Phoe- nix were Judy McGregor and daughter Karen from Ottawa. They also. attended the Blue Jays game on Saturday. Also, Dot and Andy Popore of Thorn- loe visited the Phoenix family. Doris and Harry Hill are glad to be home from their exciting trip to the British Isles. Friday, Aug. 6 is the next Eu- chre party in Greenbank Hall. Everyone is welcome. Miss Heather Gillespie and Nicole Gibson visited their sis- el ter in London on the weekend to get to know their brand new nephew. Mark Aug. 17 on your calen- dar. Hammond Organ Compa- ny will be putting an organ in Greenbank Church for the eve- ning and giving a full demon- stration of its features with a concert of music at the end. All are welcome.
