tribune february 24 1988 c17 claremont antique store opens by denise mcdonald its a step towards ensuring their future with a little help from their past on january 29 during claremonts winter carnival residents david and mimi for rest opened the areas first antique store recollections on brock street we had originally planned to open in the spring said mr forrest but we thought the carnival would be a better time because a lot of people were around and about in the area according to the longtime lawyer since retired in septem ber he and his wife bought the old home and garage a year ago with views towards their retire ment we were both going to volun teer with ceso canadian ex ecutive services overseas and turn the back half of this build ing into an apartment he said but unfortunately that didnt transpire because my wife found out she wasnt able to re tire for another two years at the same time the for- rests discovered their plans for building an apartment were futile because their property is zoned commercial which pre vented them from obtaining a permit for water and bathroom facilities hence plans for establishing their own antique store ensued ive always been interested in antiques and have been work ing and refinishing them for years said mr forrest be cause i also love auctions so much we started getting more stuff than we could possibly use in the house so last june we de cided to open our own store although the idea seemed easy enough the forrests were soon to discover implementa tion was not as simple we had a terrible time get ting it done because contractors hate working on old buildings he explained then i finally prevailed upon a client as a favor but he could only give me four weeks we ended up having a young fellow come in and do the work in his spare time thats why it took so long since opening mr forrest proclamation the council of the town of markiiam hereby proclaims the weeks of february 29th to march 11th 1988 as

estate ltd 7590266 or 7592771 says business has been slow i dont think there are enough people in claremont to support an antique store so i have to rely on drawing from stouffville uxbridge and the areas in between he said but those people just arent around in the winter thats why i had originally planned on opening in the spring which will still be the date for our official opening specializing in anything anti que recollections offers items ranging from an old butcher block hobby horse and wool winder to formal furniture a harvest table and homemade wash stand im originally from a farm and rather like primitive things i also like homemade things they dont have the smoothness manufactured items do but they are unique he said i even have a wooden wheel i fell in love with although im darned if i know what anyone would do with it as well wife mimi belongs to a group of teachers who make quilts which are now being offered for sale at recollec tions we still hope to go with ceso someday at which time we hope our daughter megan will take over the store he added recollections is open mon day thursday and saturday noon until 6 pm and friday noon until 830 pm ricks picks i rim it
