The young Maple resident was chosen by the Canadian National Institute for the Blind to present a gift of a book and acorsage to the Duchess of Kent who was in Toronto to open the United Appeal Campaign. Wendy, who is in grade 2 at the Joseph A. Gibson Public School. received a duplicate corsage and a smaller book with a copy of the message in the book she presented to the Duchess.

Once again this proved to be when the group took a charter color tour bus through the Southern Muskoka region October 7. With a bus from Travelways and Bert Bray. as driver. the group left Maple United promptly at 9 am and. headed north. Mr. Bray gave a running commentary which added trem- endously to the trip. beginning with words of information on Barrie as they drove through. toward the Ridge Road. The origin of the name Shan- ty Bay was explained as being connected with the exodus of negro slaves from the Southern USA. to Canada.

The group drove through Oro Station. Hawkstone and into Orillia, where they learned that their driver has his home. and since many were interested, he drove past it. The seniors also learned that the Ontario Hos- pital Farm at Orillia covers 700 acres and has a most out- standing Holstein herd. When the tour had almost ‘reached the end of the trip. a singsong was conducted which helped to pass away nearly 40 miles of the 239 miles travel- led during the day.
