Will establish harbor group
in hope of bettering facility
Problems with the Grand
Bend harbor prompted
members of council to set up
a harbor committee at their
meeting Tuesday night.
The committee, which will
report to council, will consist
of members of the yacht
club, cruising club, and local
fishermen.
“We definitely need a
better harbor. If we set up a
committee maybe we can
get some action,’’ said
councillor Bill Baird.
Reeve Bob Sharen later
said there was continuing
problems with the harbor. It
needs to be dredged every
two years and the question of
ownership has never been
settled, he said.
“We feel that the people
who use the facilities know
more about it and can ask for
logical things. Some of them
may have more influence
than council. That is why we
set up the committee,” he
said.
In other business, council
gave approval for the Huron
County Playhouse to place
banners across main street
on the condition they signed

Close to 4,000 people have
toured the new Lambton!
County Museum since it
opened May 13 and staff
members say they are more
than pleased.
“We really didn’t know
what to expect. We checked
with other museums and
thought we might get 4,000
people in the whole season,”
said museum curator Bob
Tremain.
School tours have helped
boost the attendance figure
with over 1,000 students
from surrounding counties
visiting the museum. A beef
barbecue last weekend drew
more than 500 people to help
raise funds for the opera
tion.
Several new exhibits in
cluding a pottery section,
have been added to the
museum since it opened
south of Grand Bend.
“The crockery area was
something we overlooked up
to now,” said Tremain. “We
also have china'and
porcelain pieces in our dis
play.”
Another added feature to
the museum is the
Springvale slaughterhouse.
The 12’ by 18’ building was
owned by the Springvale
Beef Ring Association, a
cooperative set up to supply
area farmers with fresh
meat in the days before
modern refrigeration. The
display includes such items
as sausage making equip
ment.
The museum is still short
about $60,000 in its fund rais
ing drive to match Wintario
contributions. They are
looking for an area service
club to sponsor a fund rais
ing event for the museum,
said Tremain.
