When gardening time rolls

- around each year, it is the signal

- for Robert McCulloch to get

+ Steelie all tuned up and ready to

This year the McCullochs

sent out invitations to a few

friends to come over and help

them mark the event. This 1923
Detroit-made tractor was
bought by Robert's grandfather
around 1940,

Still equipped with attaching
plow and disc scraper, the all-
steel machine has been used on
the McCulloch: property for

At the age of 14, Robert
rebuilt the tractor and has
carefully -maintained it ever

since. Once a year he fires -

Reunion a time |
for reminiscing —

_ Memories that span at least one third of the history of the .
community will be shared when people who were living here
prior to 1960 gather for this year’s Oldtimers Reunion ban-
quet at the end of the month.

Organizing committee member Julia Little said the banquet
had its roots in the Terrace Reunion held in 1982, Although
there had been similar get-togethers in the 50s, she described
the 1982 event was the first big-reunion and one which had
taken more than 12 months to organize.

“It was fantastic,’? she said, adding 250 residents and
another 250 out-of-towners showed up for the weekend-long
event which was open to anyone who had ever lived in the
community. :

She said some of those attending had only lived here as
children and had decided to come back and see how the com-
munity had changed in the interval. Recalling even the
weather co-operated on that occasion, she said the reunion

“proved to be ‘‘well worth the effort we put into it.’”

Encouraged by that success, the organizers decided to make
the reunion an annual event if on a slightly smatier scale.
Each year since, on the last Saturday of July, those who had
lived in the community 30 years previously had been eligible
to attend the banquet.

Little said attendance had ranged from 100 to 150 ‘“‘and
each year we have a few from out-of-town,” After a sit-down
meal and the presentations of the door prize and a special one
for the person who had travelled the furthest to be there, she
anticipated those attending would settle down to reminisce
about bye-gone days.

While confident there will again be a strong turn-out, Little
asked those intending to be there to purchase their tickets as
soon as possible. She explained that would help the organizers
arrange the order for meals. o

Tickets are $15 each and can be purchased from Northern
Healthcare, Grace Fell Florist and Rose’s Shop. More infor-
mation could be obtained by calling Little at 635-5205.

Back on track

Concerns earlier this year about the future of the Family
Court and Youth Justice committee have now been banished
with the committee having been brought up to strength and ~
elected’a new slate of officers.

‘ Bretfeld with Benita Chapdelaine as vice-chairman and Maria
” Thomsen. as recording secretary. Other committee-:members
are Nancy Zavaglia, Henry Dreger and Kerrie Reay. The
city’s representative on the body is alderman David Hull,
Although the committee is now taking a break for the sum-
mer, it will begin regular monthly meetings again in
September, It also hopes to send two representatives to this
fall’s annual Family Court Commmittee conference.

Bestseller reprinted

For those who were too late to get a copy of Kermode:
1969-1990, a special edition of the Caledonia Senior Secon-
dary yearbook, there is good news. A second printing has
been ordered. -

Covering the history of the school from its opening in
September 1969 to the present day — it includes updates on
all teachers and many former graduates — the publication
proved so popular the first printing sold out in only a few
days.

The club expects the second run of 100 copies to arrive dur-
ing the first week of August. Anyone wishing to reserve a
copy can do so sending a cheque for $30 to Caledonia Annual
Club, Box 432, Terrace, V8G 4BS5. A few copies will also go
on sale at the Misty River book store,
