New Rosewood co- ordinator Ila Kellerman will be introduced to the community. "This will be an excellent opportunity to learn more about the vital role Rosewood has been play- ing in the community since its opening in 1985. The community has been very supportive as Rosewood was established and in keeping it functioning, and the financial committee will table reports that may be of interest to many who have supported and wish to continue to support this organization,' Rosewood representative Joan Gallagher-Main says. Rosewood is a transition home in Midland for abus- ed women and their children. "Anyone who has con- sidered volunteering her services is also invited to attend, Volunteers are especially needed in the areas of children's pro- gramming, food prepara- tion and preparing for Christmas," Gallagher- Main says. ¢y> YOUNG DRIVERS y.

House works The new office of the Establishment's Heritage Association, the Descen- dants of the Establish- ments and the Bee Brigade will now not go unnoticed with a brand new sign erected last week to point the way to_ historic Heritage House. The three groups moved into one of the white houses on the access road to the Historic Naval and Military Establishments (HNME) earlier this year, and have spent most of the summer getting everything organized. According to Descen- dants of the Establish- ments organization Presi- dent Gwen Patterson, everyone is very pleased with the new office that contains a library and 'resource materials for visitors to through. "It is nice to have a place to call home," said Patter- son, "and it is nice to get all of our materials out of boxes." Before negotiations bet- ween three provincial government ministries and the local government came up with the white house, as a permanent home for the rummage three groups, each operated out of members' -- basements or wherever anyone would have them. Patterson said the Descendants have not had a permanent home since they occupied a room above the Children's Cen- tre at HNME two years ago. Since then boxes have been stored at the members' homes, but were brought together under one roof in June. With the summer over, Patterson said the office, manned by students from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily with the help of the government funding, will now be open a few mornings a week. With the help of local volunteers the group is hoping to keep the offices open as much as possible during the fall and winter months. Patterson estimated over 100 individuals visited their new office this sum- mer to browse through their piles of resource materials. "We had such a positive reaction to Heritage House this year, we should look for better things next year." Awareness evening The Huronia branch of the Canadian National In- stitute for the Blind wants to show its appreciation for past support. "To show our apprecia- tion to the people of the Huronia district, for the donations given in the past and to help publicize the upcoming campaign, we are sponsoring an Awareness Evening at the Budd Watson Gallery. The Evening, to take place on Oct. 3, will consist of a craft show and sale, a visual aid display, and a variety show of music, singing, comedy," says branch spokesman Tom Hawkins. Preparation is underway for the Huronia branch's annual October fund rais- ing campaign. Local fires The only civilian to die in a fire in 1985 in the area died in the village.
