Quotes from Woolwich Seniors
"The young in our schools, churches, and clubs should be taught that they didn’t make it all themselves. Also, on entering a building - they could hold the door open and not let it fly in our face."
from the Community Survey
"When I had to cut down trees in my front yard in Elmira, I counted the rings. There were 335. I found a bore with an unusual spile around the 40th ring and I’ve figured out what it was: the Mississaugas collected sap from those trees almost 300 years ago!"
Fred Hager, Elmira
"Knowing the past, we develop perspective on the present which gives us hope for the future."
Sheila Reinhart, Shantz Station
