Ray Scotchmer, curator of the museum, said he would prefef• a cement and steel structure to replace the pre- sent building and will be submitting a sketch with the Wintario application. A decision to replace the present building was made by the county's property committee when part of the roof collapsed at the museum last winter because of the heavy snow. The problem is not deterioration rather poor design. Applications for capital grants are being received until September 30, 1981 so word of acceptapce of Huron's application will probably not be received un- til 1 2. Scotchmer said the property committee con- sidered several factors in making their decision before deciding to replace the pre- sent structure. They con- sidered that the county already owns the land where the present museum Is located. The marine museum has recently been established in Goderich and will be operated in con- junction with the pioneer museum. It would be costly to move the locomotive in the museum to another loca- tion and Scotchmer is not In favour of establishing a village type museum because he feels the area has TOO SHORT TO PEDAL — Russ Finkbeiner provides the power while Robert Elder steers.

Scotchmer hopes the building program can be phased over several years to permit the museum to re- main open to the public dur- ing construction. He outlined several advan- tages to a new structure in- cluding environmental con- trol which will permit the museum to be open all year round. Presently, the main exhibit area cannot be heated during the winter months. Scotchmer observ- ed that having the museum open during the winter would be advantageous for school children to tour the museum during the school year. He also anticipates the new structure will have disp- lay rooms and lecture rooms which the present museum lacks as well as vault space for archival materials.
