The NWRTC plan a meeting in September to discuss the lists of developments. alterations, renovations, etc., that have been. submitted by niember municipalities, while the gov- ernment committee plan to hold public meetings in various centres in mid • September. Serves big area W'assmann stated his group would seek financial support for the operation of the information booth because if not only served Grand Bend, but also a wide Area of the province. "We have the only highway information booth hetween Sar- nia sod Kincardine," he point- ed nut, "and we supply infor- mation Mr all tourists as they travel into this part of the country".

They raised the question in a resolution at the Ontario C of C convention in Niagara Falls earlier this spring, but it was riot passed because it was sub- mitted ton late for study by the members of the group. Wassmann said they woutd recommend In the committee that. school opening he delayed from tin to three days after Labor Day, rather than the present procedure of opening it right after the last summer holt- day. The local promotion grOltp contend that the present system ruts short the holiday weekend as people leave lat., on Sunday or early nn the Labor Pay Mon- day to return to their homes to get their children ready, for school.

Enough facilities Although it hasn't been dis- cussed by (' of (' officials. Wassmann said he hoped they would also include a brief re• questing the Ontario govern- ment to 'slow down" their pro- motion and opening of provin- cial parks. "They arc needed fur a cer- tain class of people", he stated, "and they are doing a good job, but they have reached a point now where they are cutting int o private enterprise". "I certainly don't think they should start competing with private entettorise", he added. Wassmann pointed riot that the large crowds at the Pinery park were being contrasted to the difficulties area 'hotels and motels were having in keeping their places filled this summer. "They are certainly doing Netter business than we are in the Bend", he contended, "'('his goes for all parks." he further added. Wassma on suggested tit a t many parks had now reached the stage were "tin vacancy signs should he hung nut"' so private enterprise would he able to attract customers. He pointed out. it WAS private business people who here pay, ins for the parks with their taxes, and they should not be allowed to reach the point where they enmpeted with the private business.
