Page 2 people will remember the very active Young People 's Union and the three-act plays that they worked hard on to present to the public. The first performance or premiere, if you like, was always in Cherry Valley and then the cast was invited to present this play at various halls roundabout. These presentations were popular. Benjamin Huntley was commissioned to build a new church on the donated site for a projected cost of $1600. During the building of this church, it was interesting to note that he stayed at the farm home of the Haydens and at the site of this homestead, George and Norma Hayden still reside. Mr. Kuntley designed this church with a distinctive loveliness in no way imitating or competing with the grander scale and more massive construction of city churches but built in accord with the rural decorative style of the 19th century. The uniqueness of Cherry Valley Church was found in the onion steeple, the matching peak of the square sanctuary, the keyhole design for the door and the large keyhole window in the entry. All these were spiritually symbolic and aesthetically the mark of distinction. The small church chapels dotted the landscape of Prince Edward Island and served as a nucleus of community life. A cemetery adjoined the Cherry Valley Church and it is still maintained as the Cherry Valley Memorial Cemetery. Is it any wonder that our forefathers, at the turn of the century, glowed with pride because they were instrumental in this church to God's glory? The Cherry Valley Church formed ties to the Methodist Church
