Hall specs left to Stephen
Grand Bend council decid-
ed to leave the responsibility
-of preparation of the fire hall
`specs' to Stephen_ Township
at the meeting in the village
Monday night.
There was more pressure
from cottage owners to
change the Fraleigh parking
lot. Council passed a by-law to
the effect that the King Street
exit be closed.at 9 p.m. and
cars exit on main street and
that the lot be closed entirely
by 2 a.m. ,
Response to a letter of com-
plaint about noise from the
outside bar -patio at Sanders
Tavern was that complaints
should be directed to the
police and the anti -noise by-
law be enforced by the enfor-
cing officer.
It was learned that Stephen
Township will go to the On-
tario Municipal Board to
determine sewer -service,
rates. "They 'want the
ratepayers of Grand Bend to
pay substantially more so
that they may have service at
a reduced rate", said Reeve
Bob Sharen. ,
Report from.
resort. OPP
The Grand Bend Detach-
ment of the Ontario Provin-
cial Police investigated 33 oc-
currences the week of May 30
to June 7.
Fifteen persons were
charged for violations of the
Liquor Licence Act, while 32
people were charged for con-
traventions of the Highway
Traffic Act, the majority of
these for speeding.
One person was charged
with impaired driving and
three people had their licence
to drive suspended for 12
hours.
Driving an automobile
without insurance has
resulted in one male person
being required to attend Pro-
vincial Offences Court.
Four requests for
assistance were answered
and handled without incident
by Detachment Officers.
Hopefully, as the weather
turns warmer and we all
begin to enjoy the beach and
water, we won't forget all the
safety instructions we have
learned.

Ferguson
The possibility of a two to
three million dollar govern-
ment expenditure for a
breakwater, 'dredging at the
government's expense this
summer in the harbour,
thoughts about designating
Grand Bend a Harbour of
Safe Refuge were all on the
agenda of federal member.
Ralph Ferguson (Lambton-
Middlesex) when he met with
Grand Bend residents
Saturday.
He said that after he had
reviewed the fish catch with
local fishermen the Small
Crafts and Harbours division
of the government had recon-
sidered cost-sharing for
dredging this year and would
pay the whole amount. It
would probably be in the
neighborhood of $100,000.
As for major improvements
of a permanent nature to the
harbour, he suggested a study
by the National Research
Council to ascertain if a small
breakwater would control
sand drift and erosion. He
said it could be a two to three
million dollar expenditure by
the government, depending
street pointing to the docks.
Councillor Keith Crawford
was instructed to complete an
application to the Ontario
employment incentive pro-
gram for a grant to employ
persons for a specific project.
A meeting of the cemetery
board and neighbouring coun-
cils was set up to be held Mon-
day night in the village
chambers.
Council decided to charge
the Yacht Club a minimal fee
of $200 for use of the docks
during its u .coming 'One
Hundred' rally.
Crawford said he would not
be running for re-election.
Sharen asked the group to
consider the re -location of the
old Post 'Of-".ce and to plan
now to renov 'te. There was a
letter stati^^ 'not the building
is now officirIle the property
of the village.
Honey Electric of Chatham
was ;,ranted the contract to
look after traffic controls.
There were four tenders
received. The Honey tender
was for $3,495.
Council decided to have an
official opening of the sewer
system. "We can all flush at
once", quipped councillor
Dennis Snider.

Students on
Bruce Trail
Grade seven and eight
students of Grand Bend
Public School hiked and
camped in the Bruce Trail
area last week. They left the
school by bus Wednesday and
arrived back Friday evening.
They were formed into
cooking groups, planned their
menus and transported all of
their equipment. There were
29 students and five adult
supervisors.
They camped at Cyprus
Lake, six miles from Tober-
mory. The first day they hik-
ed about 10 miles. The second
day they were bussed to Lit-
tle Cove and they hiked the 10
miles back to camp.
They were supervised by
principal Sid Fletcher, senior
grades teacher, Brian Mor -
rice and parents, Gail
Lawson, Anita Gratton and
Echo Oliver.

reviews catch, harbour needs
on the study.
The study itself would cost
in the neighborhood of $13,000
and on a cost-sharing basis
Grand Bend would be respon-
sible for 30 percent.
Further to the dredging
proposal, Ferguson said that
future dredging would be on
a cost-sharing basis. They
would pay a percentage "off
the top" (probably 40 per-
cent) based on the dock -side
value of the fish take and
would share the remaining
cost with Grand Bend on a
fifty-fifty basis. He proposed
an annual docking tee for
fishing craft.
Colonials win
The Grand Bend Colonials
have advanced to the second
round of Ontario Cup play as
the result of a 4-2 overtime
win over Windsor Makedonia.
Dave Nolan and Kevin Sim-
mons booted the Colonial
goals in regulation time and
two penalty kicks won the
game.
The Colonials swing back
into London and district
league play this weekend
when they meet London St.
Bartolomeo Saturday at 5 p.m.
and London Yugoslays Sun-
day at 2 p.m. Both games will
be played in Grand Bend.
The Grand Bend Ausable
league team was also suc-
cessful Sunday with a 5-1
victory .over Nairn. Guy
Wilde was the leading scorer
with three goals while Dave
Groetjen and Bill Mennen
added single scores. The
team is idle this weekend.
In minor soccer play, the
Grand Bend mosquitoes
blanked Lucan 5-0. Jonathan
O'Connor was the leading
scorer with three goals. Rob-
bie MacLean notched the
other two.
'heir next game is tonight,
Wednesday in Grand Bend
with Exeter III in opposition.
David .O'Connor scored
three goals, Cohn Kobe fired
two and Brad Page kicked a
single as the Grand Bend
atoms defeated Taxandria.
The atoms will be at home
to Nairn on June 4.
It was at the thought of cost
sharing that members pre-
sent from Grand Bend coun-
cil hacked up. Reeve Bob
Sharen felt that the benefit
would be greater to neighbor-
ing townships and that pro-
bably Grand Bend would be
stuck with the bill. He asked Boat dealer Peter Warner

Cramer concurred that past name of your dog and I can
dredging had been overdone,
that the inner sand bar need
only be removed every three
to four years while the outer
bar might be dredged every
two years.
Green said that if the har-
bour was designated a Har-
bour of Safe Refuge, a
breakwall would be
necessary in rough weather.
Ferguson asked that the
village council consider the
proposal in the near future.
Sharen told him he would
take it to the meeting Monday
night.
At the Monday night coun-
cil meeting, there was the
same skepticism. Dennis
Snider, who reported the
meeting to council, said, "It
sounds good now but how do
we know what's going to hap-
pen ten years down the
road?"
To further consider the
question council decided to
set up a meeting with Stephen
and Bosanquet, boating clubs,
marina owners and
fishermen. It is scheduled for
July 9 at 7 p.m.
