Lloyd Delaney and John Lucas presented slides showing the Harbourfront: "Great Canadian Canoe Exposition"' featuring activities and canoe building and repairs: the Port McNicoll Scouts' trip into Killarney Park and climbing 'Silver Peak': the St. John's School for Boys trip down the Spanish River, and their training on the French River: Schondecti '82 and the arrival of "Destination Ste.

One of the investigations conducted over the Easter weekend by the Midland detachment of the OPP, was this stolen car, which was reported missing early Sunday morning and recovered a short time later just south of Wyebridge on Highway 93. The vehicle suffered extensive damage after it left the road, collided with a tree and rolled onto its side. The in- vestigation continues. --photo by Bob Murray Next came a practical demonstration with a canoe in the hall, to show the proper care and use of paddles and canoe, portaging and paddling strokes, the packing and loading of fear. The importance of early planning and preparation and training was stressed. Planning the trip was divided into sections from menus and personal pack to troop camping equipment. These all require an early start, with full participation by the boys and some parental assistance, for their outing in May. Thanks to Lloyd formation.
