motors ltd uxbridge 3649556 village of claremont community spirit revived claremont it was just two years ago that the tribune conducted its own personal survey on the people and the places within the village of claremont the community had just lost its police village status to become just another hamlet under the protective wing of parent pickering township some were unhappy with the change and generally spirits were at an extremelv low- ebb the newspaper story said so and this too irritated many residents but that was 1969 in 1971 things are different sure gravel trucks still rumble up and down the brock road and a couple of commercial establish ments are still vacant but on the whole claremont has bounced back for example the community park is second to none in the area a parkette has been created at the four corners and the bowling green is groomed to per fection homes too look better some are beautiful such was the feeling of art and penny massey househunting in the area were sick of living in a 3- room apartment said art a graduate law student and we dont intend to raise our children in one this is a wonderful community and we wish to become part of if and the end may be in sight for gravel truck traffic too the ontario county road department has commenced work on an overdue bypass to the east thus leaving downtown claremont to local shoppers and visitors yes
