Elbert van Donkersgoed, the CFFO's executive director, explained that the new loan program should be modeled on the province's existing land drainage loan program. The principles of that established program include municipal administration, a revolving fund for each municipality, and repayment through property tax bills. "Municipalities are experienced in this kind of administration and the program requires very little provincial administration," said van Donkersgoed. "Based on the success Ontario has had with the drainage program, this approach will focus public dollars on local priorities and will make for a substantial program over time." According to van Donkersgoed, the loan program could also be accessible to rural residents who wish to upgrade septic systems and Nancy Park spoke about the taking of family photos and putting the church family in an album. This was brought up at the board meeting. Families are to make a decision. The UCW will still give $50 assistance for children and camp. Contact Ruth Armstrong regarding this.

A delicious buffet dinner followed after which every person stood, gave their name and told about when they met Marjorie. The stories were quite different, although a number spoke about her working in the post office. Also, the musical talent of Marjorie and her family was often mentioned.
