Playhouse directors Jim Kneale and Bill Amos attend- ed the meeting on behalf of the Playhouse. • Both directors stressed the need for village support with the thought that if the village was behind the endeavour it would be easier to raise funds elsewhere in the future. Com- mittee member Dennis Snider argued against such supporting. At one point, because of a budget cut, the group had decided that it would not give a grant to the Playhouse in 1983. Chairman of the upcoming Sandcastle Day, Laurie Man- nell was at the meeting to outline the event. He asked that the group supervise a children's sand building event. Committee decided that they would provide prizes for the children's feature. The group decided to charge a minimal fee to Busy Bee day campers this sum- mer to cover the cost of sup- plies and voted to request a $100 advance from council to provide for supplies at the beginning of the camp. Thursday afternoon com- mittee chairlady Jean Gibson received delivery of a new community slide projector and screen. It was partially financed by a grant from' the provincial ministry of culture and recreation. Malcolm Campbell from Goderich demonstrated the equipment in the village coun- cil chambers.
