now concentrating on the final
preparations' for the big event to be
held west of Walkerton on Septem-
ber 28th to October 2nd. '
Preparations have, been underway
for five years.
, Accommodation for the expected
150,000 people appears to be
problem for the billeting commit-
tee.• Not all the visitors will be
staying overnight, but many will be
staying over to travel Bruce County
to see the farms and industrial and
tourist areas. In fact, the invitation
is extended to all visitors to spend
the entire week in. Bruce.
The motels are now boOked as far
away as Listowel and the only
accommodation the committee can
provide is the private home. To
. date, they have less than one
hundred homes made available and
they require at least one thousand.
The suggested rate for a., clouble
bed is $10.00 per night and $5.00
for single. If breakfast is possible,
the proposed charge is $2.00.
A bus company has asked for two
night accommodation for fifty
people and another for lust one
night.. Communities trying-to raise
money for their nem./ arenas might
consider this' method of raising
money for their local fund raising.
Most of the rooms, already made
available are a distance of fifteen to
forty miles from the site.
