OPEN HOUSE AT AMBULANCE OAT SAT., NOV. 3 A public open bouse is bring held, on Saturday, Nov. 3, at the Ambulance bay, at 402 Michigan St., Waftarton. Everyone is urged to come and see the remodeHag that has been done and look over our ambulances and the new advanced life support equipment and meet your EMTs and drivers. The open bouse will be from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. Two years ago when we were about to foae our focal ambulance service, the whole town became involved to keep this vital service in our community. Many people, as well as dubs and focal businesses, donated money to keep the service going. Without this support and the people who took the time to go to school to become EMTs, we would not have our own ambulance service today. I hope we all learned from this experience that this is a volunteer service and one we can not take for granted. We must keep education up. That is the main reason a new EMT dass is being offered here in Walkerton. The cost of this program is $225.00. Talk to us on Saturday at the open bouse to find out how you can be reimbursed for the dass. Classes will start on Nov. 13. Also if you are interested in being certified in CPR, let us know, we will arrange a program. If you have any questions please feel free to ask at the open bouse. We hope to see everyone there this Saturday, Nov. 3, from 3 to 7 p.m. NOTICE The Town of North Liberty requests that you do not burn leaves on the asphalt streets or alleys as the heat burns away the oil and causes the pavement to break up. 2tnß 5 18,555 6 21,225 Add 12,675 for each household number over 6.

Girl Scout Cookie Sale To Begin Soon there will be a Giri Scout at your door! From Nov. 9 through Nov. 25, all Walkerton Girl Scouts will be taking orders for cookies. This year they offer seven varieties. The classic favorites - shortbreads, chocolate mint and peanut butter sandwich cremes - will be joined by some newer, more exotic confections. For many of the girls, the cookie sales are their first experience in business. They learn responsibility, sales technique and money-management. They gain self-respect as they learn the importance of “following through” on a project. And they develop pride in helping to fund their own activities. The nationwide "Right To Read” service project is funded by this sale. Local activities rely heavily on the cookie funds, bringing the girls career education, scholarships for summer camp and field trip fees for needy troop members. The new cookie varieties are: Forget-Me-Nots: tender vanilla cookies, topped with caramel and pecans, in a rich chocolate coating. Dutchess: tender vanilla cookie, topped with caramel and toasted coconut and chocolatey stripes. I’m A Natural: a seven-grain cookie sweetened with fruit juice and honey and livened with walnuts, raisins, apple bits and spices. A soft cookie with no refined sugar. Dutch Apple Bars: smooth cookie batter surrounds a moist, chewey cinnamony apple and raisin fruit filling. Individually wrapped in packets of two. The Girl Scouts are a nonprofit, community-minded program. They deserve the support of the public. When a girl Scout knocks at your door in a few weeks, please realize that your cookie order is helping a very worthwhile organization. Shop Ai Home
