Complaints don't move council 'Form a beach association' says Brasher According to one resi- dent of Tiny Township, the beach off Farlane Lake has become the site for drunkenness and debauchery. Albert Street says "'visitors to the area do not care what happens to the lake or the park." He says the speed limit of 60 km/h is "'ignored"' and consequently "three cars have overturned on this corner in the past three years. The resident also reports an alarming increase in drunkenness after alcohol is consumed by "the young and not-so-young." He describes as "the norm" constant parties, music from ghetto blasters, screaming and _ foul language." Street is especially per- turbed over having to clean the area up after the weekend celebrations, say- ing that '"'dirty diapers and empty bottles are not un- common, even articles of clothing such as underwear and socks."' He has often found a pic- nic table 'in the water" Memorable night at Cont'd from pg. 1 Principal Gilles Cing- Mars gave a brief speech following Dupuis'. He spoke first to graduates who were not going to con- tinue with post- secondary education, saying, "Do your job well and you'll be happy and productive." To students going on to al fi Long red line university and college, he cautioned that they would have to "overcome that temptation' of "over- whelming freedom." Speaking of "no more cur- fues, no teachers checking your assignments and beer in the fridge," Cinq-Mars told students that they would have to monitor The graduates of ESPSS were wearing red this year. In total, 104 students participated in the ceremonies their lifestyles if they were to achieve good success in the years ahead." His advice for personal success: "Develop a goal for yourself."' And even if that goal is not completely realized, Cing-Mars suggested you can "still reap the last Wednesday night. which the resident believes has been used as a "fishing perch."' The lake also serves as a bath area for the visitors and Street claims "even the car gets a wash." To rectify all these pro- blems, Street suggests that lights be placed in the area, a lower speed limit set and bylaw signs erected. But Tiny Township council does not think it can accommodate Street's wishes. Deputy Reeve Dr. Peter Brasher would only suggest that Street "forma beach association." Coun- cillor Ross Hastings added that Tiny council could not recognize special - cases, since "there are problenis all along the beach area."' high school benefits."' Borrowing a line from Charles Dickens, the prin- cipal said he had "'great ex- pectations" for the graduating class and en- couraged them to go out and "'grab your vision."

The reason is to relieve traffic congestion during the mor- ning and afternoon. The left lane will be used ex- clusively for turning left onto Robert. Parking that used to ex- ist on the right hand side of the road is no longer there. But that didn't stop some people from parking there anyway on Thursday mor- ning last week. The situation was so poor that Police Chief Robert Cummings had to leave his office and per- sonally ticket a number of cars. The intervention ap- peared to work however, as no violators were discovered during the afternoon. According to Staff Seargent Don Wescott, "We are enforcing the parking bylaw." He says more people would have been charged if "we had more man- power."
