Hill coach Mary Williamson was just as enthusiastic. ' " ' " “They’re an all-round nice team," he said, referring to both their skill on the field and their department off. So far, Richmond Hill has won all three games, it has played, leaving even the Coburg coach with words of praise for them.

The trail opens onto a large picnic area, known as the Polish Park (who knows why it‘s called that?) which is highlighted by a covered cement area which was built by the Rotary Club in 1969. The area is all part of the Mill Pond complex, but this district is not heavily travelled at all, Lynton said. And that doesn‘t make sense to me, unless people simply don’t know it‘s there.

Since I have been with The Liberal a mere month, it‘s difficult to speak with any in- telligence on any subjects, but it never stopped me in the past, so why now. I wonder. It was the second win in two nights for Dynes, who tripped up Harper Diesel 3- 1 at the Beaches, Wednesday, Doug Webster besting John Lenneville. As that team attempted to bring a run in from third, the heavens opened and the game was called. For eight years, I have been trying to get my name in Fred Simpson’s column. No luck. The rains came. but too late to help Beaches A.C., as they lost 4-1 to Rich- mond Hill Dynes in a slightly- abbreviated contest last Thursday in a Beaches Fastball league game at the Town Park.

Well now, that‘s been fun Thanks Freddie. Wonder how we; could get the Regional Municipality of York to adopt a similar slogan? Quote worth remembering: From Parks and Recreation Director David Hamilton came these words â€" “Our policy is to listen to people when we want to make a major change." I assume parents are worried their offsprings could and would topple from the structure. The dock‘would be 24 feet long with a “T” at the end and railings on all sides. Little was said about that item Thursday, but I get the impression a lot of people are not in favor of the dock.
