Lions Pool open for business
Fundraising surpasses S50,000 community goal

With the splashes from
swimmers this past Monday
in Seaforth, Lions pool re-
opened after a $225,000
renovation project,
highlighted by the many
generous donations from the
community.
And, it opened right on
schedule.
"The community has been
great," says organizer Bob
Beuttenmiller.
"And we knew they could do
it," he adds, referring to the
$50,000. goal the Lions Club
looked to the community to
raise.
Shortly after the Lions
Club first announced their
plans in early February,
donations started pouring in.
By mid-April, half of the
$50,000 goal had already
been reached and was then
exceeded, thanks to the
$15,000 raised daring last
week's Cash for Splash
fundraiser.
"That Cash for Splash
definitely put us over," says
Beuttenmiller, who adds
renovations finished just in
time for swimming lessons to
begin.
"Two weeks ago people
were looking at the pool and
saying it wouldn't be done by
now," he says with a smile,
pointing out that the weather
was extremely cooperative
with their schedule, and is
partly to thank for getting.
the project finished on time.
"The weather has been
fantastic. We haven't lost any
days due to rain. We've been
very lucky," he says.
The 50 -year-old pool was in
need of some major work and
had gotten to the point that if
it wasn't fixed, the Lions
Club could not have opened it
this summer.
The long list of work done
included moving the pump
house from beneath the pool
to above the deck in a new 16
by 20 foot building, installing
a new filter and piping and

Ethanol
plan
announced
for Hensall
tr;
Crya'taI Ste'wart'�
An estimated $150 million
ethanol plant, the largest of
three being supported by the
province, has been slated for
Hensall.
Commercial Alcohols Inc.
Hensall is receiving $12.5
million from the McGuinty
government towards
construction of the plant,
which will produce 190
million litresof ethanol
annually and employ
approximately 60 to 75
people.
The government will also
be providing annual
operating grants worth up to
$60 million.
It was recently announced
Ontario's gas will be required
to contain five per . cent
ethanol by 2007.
"This is excellent news for
the village of Hensall and the
surrounding communities,"
said Huron -Bruce MPP Carol
Mitchell in a press release.
"The ethanol plant will be a
major economic driver in the
area."
Mitchell, who has been
working on renewables since-
she
ince-she was first elected, says it
"has been a long time in the
coming" and Hensall is
fortunate to have been
chosen.
"There's a lot of
competition for the
production of ethanol
throughout the province," she
says, adding the relationship

Alcohols and Hensall Co-op -
