On Aug. 8, the Waltham firefighters hosted a group of day camp children in the Waltham Fire Station. They answered and coloured a little . . .

safety quiz. They climbed into the different fire trucks as firefighters explained about each truck and how each piece of equipment is used. Lunch time was a great affair with hot dogs and hamburgers on the menu along with treats and juice. The firefighters handed out gifts, firefighter hats and some take-home fire safety games. This is the third year for this program which is known as station visits.

Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with Jane Lamure-Leroy and family in the recent passing of her dear brother Jimmy.

Happy birthday wishes are extended to little Ryker Pilon, son of Andrea (Venne) and Matthew Pilon who celebrated his fifth birthday on Aug. 12.

Please take note, there have been several deer sightings on Isle-Aux-Allumettes. One was hit on Sunday. Drive carefully.
