The Our Town - Clarenville Blog by Paul Tilley

It was an interesting day today.  I ended up in jail! Oops Yes, it was JAIL AND BAIL-Catch and Release day here in Clarenville on Friday the 13th, sponsored by the  Clarenville Area Citizens' Crime Prevention Committee .   Y ou are either on the "let's get someone arrested" side of the fence (jail cell) or the other "let's lay low and hide" side to keep from being arrested.  I  as sitting on that fence early this morning.... Then I became an instigator and with our students we managed to help get my friend and collegue Rick Martin arrested.  Then I hid. The Mounties always get their man. All too shortly after getting Rick in the squad car, I found myself in the back seat of another one.  I was charged on two counts: - Too Vocal on Council matters     (I wonder who put me up to this....hummm? ) - Decorating without a licence.      (Not sure on this one!) Anyway, an hour or so later, Rick and I raised about $250 for Crime Prevention thank
