VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES Season*s Greetings From the Newsletter Team â€" To all Society Members, Skiff of the Museum &. Archives, And Especially Directors and Volunteers. This is the last issue of the Newsletter for 1993 and the third publi^ed by the team that took over from Georgie and David Wilson. Looking back I can only say, has been a learning experience!**. Our team took over the Newsletter at a time of change.

We appreciate all your assistance in helping us recognize the system and apologize for any misunderstandings on our part. Going into ttie New Year we must en^hasize; if the ‘^Newsletter Team Approach** is going to work deadlines must be met. Reporting, writing, composing, editing, paste up, printing, mailing, etc.; all these chores take measurable time; they must fit into already busy schedules.

Miss Leonard, also a teacher, was one of the early residents of Gertmde*s house.... ----Of Historical Interest--------- North Shore Heritage: Development from the late 1700's to present Day.
