Sponsorship of ROMA suite to be
reviewed by lawyer
Two Huron County companies have
offered to 'sponsor' a hospitality suite at
the Rural Ontario Municipal Associa-
tion (ROMA) conference in Toronto
ext year, Coun. John Grace told coun-
lllors. Held at the Fairmont Royal York
Hotel, the suites are a place where
councillors can interact with each
other.
A suite that allows the renter to bring
their own booze and food runs $1,900
while a suite that sells those items to
guests is $1,200.
Grace said on a break from the meet-
ing that there are many suites spon-
sored by businesses and the practice is
nothing new. "I don't believe it is a
problem.
Shewfelt suggested asking the county
lawyer if there is any potential conflict.
"If it is a company that (the county)
are doing large business with, I don't
think you can accept that sponsorship.
Certainly if you wish to have a room
that you can drop in, that's a different
thing:'
"My understanding is they are spon-
soring it, whereas if they rented a room
and opened it to various communities,
it's a different thing to me, but it's a law-
yers decision."
Council agreed to have legal counsel
look into the matter. If they are advised
not to accept the sponsorship, a suite
will be paid for on the county dime.
Wood accepts honour from county •
Gary Wood was presented with a
plaque from the county in honour of his
Io)as emergency management
rdinator. EMS chief Dave Lew said
od worked in emergency services for
more than 33 years, including 10 in
I Iuron County.
"He moved our system forward and
now we are well recognized in south-
western Ontario and the province," Lew
told council.
Shewfelt said Wood's expertise was
appreciated, particularly when the 1:3
tornado hit Goderich and area.
Deaccession at the museum
Firearms, an organ and a Sebrin-
geville OPP uniform are among the
items on their way out of the Huron
County Museum. A deaccession proc-
ess is underway and those items will
find their way to other museums, said
Meighan Wark, director of cultural
services.
Items often move from museum to
museum, but best practice is to inform
the public and council when changes
are made to collections, Ward said.

Christmas long ago on display
Take a tour of vintage Christmas cards at Baillies Framing In Grand Bend. Historian
researcher Paul Miller presents his collection, taking us back to the 1800s.
On display Is an eclectic collection of Christmas cards that includes the first
commercially produced Canadian cards, printed In Montreal In the mid 1870s.
There are cards from the Painters of Canada Series produced in 1931. These silk-
screen cards were of a modern design and reflected the rise of the Canadian art
movement In the 1920s and 1930s. A favourtite card of Millers' shows a paperboy
flying a paper to a Canadian soldier dated 1915. Paperboys often gave cards to their
customers in order to solicit a tip.
The display will be at Baillies, 22-81Crescent Street, Grand Bend until Christmas.
