Rolly Keffer was kept happily busy last Sunday afternoon visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Ray Jennings of Aurora who were celebrating their Golden Wed- ding Anniversary. We would like to extend a sincere and warm welcome to several visitors from Britain who have been with Mrs. Nancy Newton and her family recently.

By JIM IRVING At a meeting of Vaughén Town Council a few weeks ago. Councillor John Gilbert commended the community of Kleinburg for its efforts in raising funds for a public tennis court.

With so many activities going on the same day, it was felt that the walkathon would hinder rather than complement and all sponâ€" sors as well as walkers will realize that they are released from their obligations.

Of course there had to be a Binder Twine Festival first. and also those service clubs. but a look at how the festi- val originated for one is typical of the kind of en- thusiasm generated in and by the communitY. The festival, now in its sixth year. and which at- tracted 18.000 people in 1971. is the offshoot of an earlier The routine apparently is something like this: First you decide on the project, then you approach the Bin- der Twine Festival Commit- tee, then you drop by the Rotary Club. and occasion~ ally other service clubs, and then when you have all those organizations practically committed for the full cost. you approach V a u g h a n Council and ask them if it's okay to proceed. Council is usually so flab- bergasted that it‘s not going to cost them anything. they almost give the go ahead that same day without even both- ering to send the request to committee first. diamonds seems to be no more difficult than finding a Group of Seven painting in the area.

Senior Citizens September 7. 47 seniors and guests left Maple at 8:30 am in a beautiful new -Travelways coach driven by Art Cummings, with hostess Louise Cooper and honorary members Frank and Effie Dale. Although each destination was a mystery. even at times to the driver and hostess, it was amazing how many folk guessed at least one of the four destina- tions for the day. They arriv- ed first at the Hamilton Botani- cal Gardens. and went from there to Dundurn Castle. Al- though they did not take the conducted tour, the seniors had a picnic lunch thanks to the Dales who brought their stoves and provided tea and coffee. After the lunch stop, they stopped at the Ancaster Moun- tain Mill where Howard Cope. who by the way, used to live in Maple and worked in the gravel pits here, gave the group a tour of his treasured mill, unique in grinding pure whole wheat flour :with millstones. The last stop of the day was the Lion Farm or African Safari where even some who had been through before said that they had enjoyed this trip even more. The next trip involving our Maple folk will be the one day color tour October 5. More details later. A last step was made for sup- per at Gullivers’ in Stoney Creek. and the group arrived home around 8:30 pm when the rain. which had held off all day finally began to come down. The first meeting of the fall season was held last week with primarily business on the agenda. ‘ Lions Wars and other things later intervened and it wasn‘t until 1967 that the late Vic Ryder of Kleinburg, revived the custom as a Cen- tennial project, enlarging it into its present festival form, featuring food. danc- ing and nostalgic pioneer amusements. That first year â€"â€" an im- mediate success â€" it found custom of the area. “Pick Up Your Binder Twine Day". started by a merchant of the village, Charles Shaw. whose store once stood where Nor- man Hall‘s Service Station now stands. Hall, himself, is a member of the village rec- reation committee and one of the leading persuaders for things recreational. The Binder Twine Day was the day set aside for farmers of the area, appro- priately enough. to pick up their supply of twine for that year’s harvest. But it was also a social day. Mr. Shaw believing that it was a bit of a waste having all those old friends there just to pick up a few balls of string. and so he used to lay on a bit of a party for them as well.

During the festivities these youngsters are intrigued with Canada-Russia hockey game while their parents and the older singles dance. Our humble apologies. and we bow from the waist, although the 1.500 tickets are going very‘ quickly at $2. per person and those interested should get theirs as soon as possible. A_wonderfu1 service was en- joyed at St. Paul‘s Presbyterian Church, Concession 8 Vaug- han, last Sunday on the occasion of its 128th anniversary. Rev. John C r a b b e of Albion Gardens, Thistletown, conduct- ed the service and Spencer and Joan Finch led in the musical presentation with the assistance of the young people. Rev. Bertrand Andrew ex- changed pulpits for the day with Rev. Crabbe and St. An- drew’s was closed in honor of the occasion. The minister and congrega- tion of Maple United Church went all out last Friday evening with a barbecue and corn roast on the new parking lot to which‘ everyone in town had been in- vited. It was mOSt unfortunate ‘that so few people knew of the event and of the extent to which the comfort of the visitors was considered. even to the pres- ence of a television for the con- venience of those who were en- grossed in the Canada-Russia hockey series. or some such feat after we com- mitted them last week to selling 15,000 tickets for the Big Okto- berfest! The more we hear of this, the more exciting it begins to sound and hope that all goes as plan- ned after such a tremendous effort put forth by the Lions. Church News From all reports, although there was a real chill in the air, everyone present enjoyed them- selves, and comments have been made that the food was delici- ous. The park. itself. was given to the Town of Vaughan as part of a Subdivision agree- ment and was never used un- til approached by the village. N6\§- the town cuts the grass and puts up necessary barricades, while the village itself with some extra mon- e_v on its hands after it was all over. which resulted in the formation of the recrea~ tional committee as a vehi- cle for disposing of the prof- its. The first of these then be- came a 10-acre park, which was followed by a swimming hole (damming the river) and a ball park, which has a 200- strong youngsters' league. as well as a man‘s and women‘s league. Now the tennis court will go up there in the park alongside the ball diamond and will feature two double courts and an eight by 10- foot chain length fence. Details as to its overall administration are still to be worked out. “When we first got going, we polled the people to see what they wanted in the way of achievable priorities," Mr. Hall said. Since many of the boys now in the Cub packs will be flying up to Scouts, there will be many new vacancies in the two Cub Packs. Forms will be in the Maple Library as well as avail- able from the leaders. These must be filled in and returned to Glen Hutchison, 16 Clemson Crescent as soon as possible. For any further information, please give Glen 3 call. A coffee party was held at the home of Mrs. Sadie Allen, September 12, when all the girls received their lists and instruc- tions. They will be calling on YOU sometime between now and the end of this mouth. The society would once again like to thank the community for the great response received last year and they do hope for the same type of support again this year. As our readers may have noticed. the posters from the June contest in the schools are now in the windows of several of our local merchants. The judging will be done by John Hayward Lown, and prizes will be awarded at a very special event the society is planning for October 21. Keep an eye on this column for further details.

All positions open, and all boys welcome. The recreatlonal commit- tee starts things up, says Mr. Hall, gives them the initial shot, sets up the execuive committee and then we “for- get about it." For the court itself, the village received $4.000 from the festival, another $3,000 from Rotary and $1,500 from the Lions Club. The approxi- mately $1,200 balance will be paid by Vaughan Council, which will later get it back under a recreation grant. And that’s about the only time they forget about any- thing in Kleinburg once they set out to get it done. This year, the festival, which will be held on Sep- tember 9, will probably ear~ mark its money for some more cultural activities, feel- ing it’s run the gamut of recreational pursuits for awhile. Mr. Hall said. So that‘s pretty well they get things done Klginburg. Well, you say. that seems easy enough, but what hap- pens after they get the courts. for example.

This time. all they have to do is walk 20 mile: to Woodbridge and back. Entry forms can be ob- tained from various stores in Maple and Woodbridge and at the Vaughan Munic- ipal offices.
