T uris m association disappointed with lack of interest The regular meeting of the Lucknow Tourism Association was held May 15 at -Fisherman's Cove. Rick McArthur gave a very informative and enjoyable tour of the campgrounds for those who found time to attend. The camping facilities they have will meet the needs of any type of camper whether it be fishing, hiking, swimming or canoeing on the newly dredged canals. Dave Hanna also gave a tour of Silver Lake Camp, which he is presently upgrading. These grounds are also ex- cellent for fishing and biking and has great potential for the future. During the business period those atten- ding were informed there are old direc- tional signs in the town shed. These signs were taken down for need of repair and paint and never put back up. They were located ion the east and west entrance to Lucknow. The Brownies have 'offered to paintthesigns ifsomeone willerect:them. It was also felt:there:shouid be a direction sign on the inainatreet for the liquor store. It was felt that Pitch -In day was a suc- cess and hope to make it an annual event. The new ;brochures are in the stores. 'The nextmeetingwill be held September 18 in the town hall. The steal' group that is working towards promoting tourism .,is becoming very discouraged due to apparent lack of in- terest shown by our local residents and business 'community. They hope that by September everyone will be out with new interest and enthusiasm. Young, Miss Poly Phosphate, Marion MacGillivray, Miss Cigy Boo.
