I
think it would be a good idea to do an article on the
Boy Scout Compost Sight in Southampton. I went with some
grass clippings today and was astounded to see the
amount of brush, tree roots and branches which have been
dumped there despite signs that say not dumping of brush
etc. Obviously there are either people who don’t care or
can’t read. This is a good way to loose our compost area
completely. It is disconcerting since there is no charge
to get rid of brush etc at the dump.

Three comments
|
June 6, 2011
I’m pleased to
see that the story of the Chantry Island Light and
Keeper’s House is being written down before it is
forgotten. So much work done by a relative few in the
early years that may not be fully appreciated by those
who now benefit from the finished project and the tours.
The ongoing commitment of the many volunteers in the
later stages of the project is a testament to the
quality of the people in the Saugeen Shores community.
I would hope it will be in booklet form eventually.
Thanks

How on earth will
$4,000 or $6,000 over four years translate into "if you get the
grades, you get to go?"
The last time I checked
(recently, as I have several nieces and nephews in college and
university), a university education was well over $10,000 per
year! Not to mention residence fees, and living expenses, along
with books!
Yet more ridiculous
claims with nothing to back them up....

Very interesting letter from Mr. Crossling, but
short on details. Is he taking part in a Port Elgin or
Southampton Rotary mission project of some kind? What role is he
or the Rotary playing in "saving lives" in Cameroon (as
indicated in the heading)? Are others from the area accompanying
him? This has the makings of a good human interest story for
local readers, if developed fully. Maybe I missed earlier
reports or letters from the Port Elgin correspondent?
--Dick Wright, Southampton
Editor: No...there have been no other
reports. As one can see from Mr. Crossling's 'letter', internet
communication is very limited in the region of Cameroon. We are
attempting to provide a 'travelogue' but given the conditions
from where he is sending, it is difficult. It is part of a
Rotary endeavour to help provide things like clean drinking
water and schools.
We hope to present a full report complete with photos upon their
return to Canada.

Josh is thrilled with his new system! It was so nice to watch

we just have to figure out what all the remotes are for!
He is happy to be back in school with his peers and he is

Liz--you are so right in your stance regarding municipal taxes
being spent on items which are the basic responsibilities of
the provincial government. We should commend our municipal
council for going ahead with the projects you mentioned. We
could wait for years before anything was done by the
province, to alleviate the problems associated with the medical
centre and the school.
In a way this is similar to the centralisation of health
services. Our residents will have to arrange their own
transportation - -an additional cost which is first cousin to
another tax, just so that the South Bruce Grey Health Centre
honchos can claim a "savings" in THEIR budgets. And if we
understand correctly the CEO could get a BONUS for arranging
this.
