Back for another year...

Welcome to the 156th harried issue of the
Informer, your more-or-less weekly
information sheet since 1979. This is a
short issue for the simple reason that
your editor is also trying to work on the
calendar. Coming up in the next issue (if
the patron saint of people-who-keep-their-
fingers-in-dikes permits) will be
information on how our exchange students
are doing in Japan, a look at what happens
to ABE students when they've finished that
program, and VARIOUS OTHER ITEMS which YOU
WILL BE SENDING IN over the next week. I
was also intending (my personal road to
hell is looking like a super highway) to
run the infamous 'guess who the babies are'
contest. Would the people involved (you
know who you are) get off your butts and
get your photos in ASAP. Send Informer
submissions to Information Services, 2002.
Black and white photos more than welcome.

Hughes gives tip to United Way

One of the themes of this year's United
Way campaign was to "give like you've never
given before" and certainly Ken Hughes
lived up to that sentiment, though not
perhaps intentionally. Ken lost the tip of
his finger building a hobby horse which he
donated as a prize to the United Way draw,
and then to pile (literally) insult on top
of injury, his donation was left off the
list of prizes published in the last issue
of the Informer. "I would like to offer a
thousand apologies" said Lynne Hamilton,
sounding suitably mortified and chastened.
"IT would like to say that Ken gave more
than enough." Dorothy Webb was the winner
of the hobby horse; meanwhile rumour has
it that it will be quite some time before
Lynne dares to "finger" Ken for another
contribution.

Travels to tempt anyone

Whether your idea of a great vacation is
to explore the many attractions of a big
city, to take a cruise to exotic foreign
lands, or to relax with a glass of wine in
the French countryside, Extension programs

The 7th annual Capilano College trip to
New York City will be taking place from
May 11-21, and if you'd like to learn more

long time English instructor Pierre Coupey.
And, on the itinerary of the visit are all
