The Webbs, Ken and Marge, and The Humes, Sherwood and Gladys, spent two weeks in Florida, one week attending Cheraw’s first annual, and one at Myrtle Beach in 1970. Little change in’71 & 72. Big change in’73, CHERAW WILL BE BASE FOR A MONTH’S VACATION. The know-how, can-do, and energy of these steam loving Canadians is terrific. In 1971 Sherwood replaced a
bearing in our 10-20 Titan and Ken helped reflue our Peerless. This year Ken fired the Farquhar while Sherwood entertained with Steam-era color movies that resulted in many Buffs going to Milton for the first time. Majorie (Mrs. Webb) was crowned SOUTH CAROLINA QUEEN OF STEAM and was presented a Chime Whistle (for her Minneapolis). She will again operate our Peerless (2) and Frick April 27-28-29-73.
