PAGE 6. WEDNFSDAY. AUGUST 28. 1985.WHITBY FREE PRESS Br(oklin Bylines By BETTY-JEAN BLYTH Cal 655-3679 with Items for this column Summer is almost gone. It seems only yesterday that I was putting away our winter things and now its just about time to haul them out again. In a few days the children will be heading back to school. For those of us who work outside the home, it was all too brief but I suspect that most stay-at-home moms are breathing a sigh of relief. One of the surest signs that winter is just around the corner is the starting up of many of the organizations that take the tedium out of the long cold months ahead. To make the most of the few nice days left to us, there are still some outdoor ac- tivities planned that I'm sure you won't want to miss. CORN AND WINTER ROAST Bain or shine, the annual family corn and weiner roast of the 2nd Brooklin Cubs and Scouts will take place at Camp Batty Sept. 12 at 6:30 p.m. Camp Bat- ty is located on the west side of Hwy. 12, north of the Columbus sideroad. The entrance and parking is just off Duff's Rd. - watch for signs and scouts. All members and families are invited as well as any prospective new boys and any interested adults.

The fair board is seeking to replace the logo which has been used for several years now. The current em- belm is a horse's head with the mane represen- ting leaves and it is set in a circle surrounded by the name "Brooklin Spring Fair". The new logo should be more representative of all agricultural aspects of the fair as well as its other ac- tivities and craft work displays. Jack Woodward, secretary-treasurer and manager of the Brooklin Spring Fair said last week that further details of the com- petition will be announ- ced in the near future.
