The leaders of this club, Diane Elston and Joyce Dedecker told us to build a house out of marshmallows and toothpics. The way it worked was one person had to build with their right hand only and the other per- son with their left hand only. It showed us that we can work together. After we finished our house Diane talked about different clubs we can belong to and the different awards we can win. The groups all got together and closed the meeting by saying the 4-H motto, `Learn to do by doing.' Next meeting will be held in the St. Columban Church hall on Thursday, April 6 at 7 p.m. People discuss • future of land owned by ABCA More than 70 municipal, provin- cial and interest group representa- tives met with the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA) on March 30 to discuss the future of the Authority's land holdings. The Authority owns 8,500 acres of land. With dwindling financial resources the ABCA was seeking direction for land ownship and management. Divided into small groups for discussions, the participants told the conservation agency what they value most about conservation lands and how the Authority should undertake to increase revenue, said Kate Monk of the ABCA. "They want us to manage conser- vation lands for natural habitat for wildlife. These lands are also valued for recreation and educa- tion," said Monk. Those who attended supported the concept of selling lands that do not meet conservation objectives and using the funds to manage the remaining lands, according to an ABCA press release. Donation boxes should be placed at several areas to increase revenue. The discussions were part of the ABCA's 1995 Partners Meeting. Members municipalities, provincial ministries and interest groups attend each year to provide input on aspects of the Authority's programs and services. 11 St. Columban` by Cecilia Ryan 345-2028 Ingersol, Dan O'Conner and wife Susan of Wetaskiwim, Alberta and Ron O'Connor and wife Irma of Shelbourne on the death of their mother and mother-in-law, Mary O'Connor at the Seaforth Commun- ity Hospital on Sunday morning.
