Lions to raffle local homesite
Grand Bend Lions will
give away a recreational
homesite near Lake Huron
next spring — and, as a
bonus, put the proceeds
toward a community park
that the winner and his fami
ly can enjoy.
In its most ambitious pro
ject to date, the club is raffl
ing off a 15,400 sq. ft.
homesite in Southcott Pines
with a current value of $16.-
000. Only 200 tickets will be
sold at $100 each, making it
the best odds of most
lotteries available today.
Proceeds will go toward
preliminary development of
the 4.5-acre park the club
has purchased for the resort
community. The property is
located behind the Legion
Hall, near the main in
tersection of No. 21 and 81
highways.
Preliminary steps in
developing the park will be
ground preparation and fen
cing. which the Lions hope
to complete next year. Then
comes the facility planning
process which will involve
various sectors of the com
munity.

GRAND BEND

Rec group finish survey,
to prepare master plan
Members of the Grand
Bend recreation committee
have completed a survey of
the recreational needs of the
area.
Robert Collins of the On
tario Ministry of Culture and
Recreation was in atten
dance at a recent meeting
and complimented the com
mittee on completing the
survey so quickly and ef
ficiently’.
Collins suggested all the
information gathered from
each survey should be put
together to make one
master sheet. After this
master sheet is completed
the information should be
communicated to the public
by some means.
The provincial rep said the
rec committee should try to

Reeve Bob Sharen
suggested the committee set
up a five year plan of ac
tivities and projects they
would like to carry out and
keep adding or deleting from
the master plan.
Sharen added. “There
should be long term ac
tivities set up for year round
residents and short term ac
tivities set up primarily for
part time residents and
tourists "
Committee members
Keith Crawford, Pauline
Lingard and Howard Hartle
and secretary Brenda Jen-
nison are to set up the
master plan for the next
regular meeting.
Mrs. Lingard reported on
attending a recent con
ference of the Ontario
Municipal Recreation
Association. She said the
specific goal of the OMRA is
to have a spring conference
for new recreation members
to inform what their role is.
Miss Mary Ann Luckett,
recreation director for
Southcott Pines explained
what her position entailed
and asked if there was any
way she could help the
Grand Bend recreation com
mittee.
She said her job was to
provide recreational
programs for all children of
the area. She would like to
work together with the
village committee so they
could complement each
others programs.
A request for financial
assistance from the Parkhill
Silver Blades skating club
for financial assistance was
denied. One child from
Grand Bend is participating
in the Parkhill club.
The committee felt as
they were donating to the
Zurich-Grand Bend club

i cond donation.
prize for its major kick-off
raffle, the Lions took the ad
vice of successful investor
Dr Morton Shulman, who
was quoted recently as say-
ing that serviced
recreational land was one of
the best bets for future ap
preciation.
The selected homesite in
Southcott Pines is within
easy walking distance of
Lake Huron. Well-treed with
pines and oaks, the site is
serviced with TV cable,
pipeline water, underground
hydro and telephone, and
paved roads. The owner also
is entitled to clubhouse,
beach and X-country ski
privileges in the subdivision.
Lions President Frank
Allister says he’s confident
the club will receive full
community support for the-
project. “While the
homesite itself is a very at
tractive prize for the
winner, the real prize is our
community park which will
make everyone a winner.
We hope everyone will get
behind this worthwhile
development.”
Project Chairman Peter
Warner says he has a
number of tickets sold
already. ‘‘Several people
have told me they like the
1:200 odds to win, because
they’re discouraged by the
1:50,000 chances of the big
draws.”
"The Lions recognize that
not everyone can afford to
shell out $100, but most peo
ple will want to contribute in
some way,” said Warner.
‘‘One of the solutions is that
five people with $20 each can
get together to buy one
ticket. Or a person can
provide a number of post
dated cheques to spread the
cost over several months.”
The draw will be made
June 1 at the club’s annual
ladies night.
CHAMBER EXECUTIVE ELECTED — The Grand Bend and Area Chamber of Commerce elected their executive at their annual
meeting held Tuesday. Seated are first vice president Gene Grenier, president Nick Carter and second vice president Len
Hume. In the back row are treasurer Lome Campbell and secretary-manager Bob Simpson. Simpson replaces Tom Webster.
