Many years ago the Warrens bought the farm that was known as the Regan farm I and over the years have enhanced, rather than modernized the property. The large glass windows in the dining area look out over a long sloping lawn and garden to Opinicon Lake. The women had their refreshments and appreciated the sheer beauty of the place.y At eight o'clock, President, Kathy Eberhard introduced our guests - Mrs. Donna Robinson, Michelle Bryden, a student at RDHS, and Soviet student Oksana Dykan of Donetsk, Russia. Although Oksana speaks English quite well, Michelle answered most of the questions and told of her visit to Oksana's family. The girls had become pen pals many years ago and have exchanged visits and gotten to know each other‘s families as their own. It was interesting to hear that life in Russia is much like that of Canada. The climate is similar but Michelle was urged to dress much more warmly than she was used to doing. Oksana's mother insisted that she wear a hat, scarf, mitts, heavy coat and boots. The girls wear skirts to shcool and the boys suits or dress slacks, not blue jeans. Michelle found that the level of studies in Russia was advanced, especially the math. Since Oksana has been here, she has visited Toronto to see “Phantom ‘of the Opera", also Ottawa, Niagara Falls, Kingston and areas around Elgin. It was such an interesting talk that the women were relunctant to let the girls go, but we realized that they had had a very busy schedule and were tired. President Kathy thanked them and a cheque will be sent to help cover some of the travelling costs. The families of the girls foot the expenses and it is very expensive. Both of Oksana's parents find drain on are teachers but that it .is a the budget. Because of the time, the business part of the meeting was kept to a minimum.
