Parker., London, and the department of labour, said Knight. the tender which could be deleted by council "but . to take full advantage._of Win- tario grants, out of the $24,000 we would only cut our fund- raising objective by $8;000. and Wintario saves $16,000", said Knight. Knight said the council could cut an option on the arena roofing "But there's no point in' having, a good building• without a good roof and good foundation." The arena construction would begin by mid-August and be completed by mid- February, said Knight. "We hope to sign a contract by this week and hope to be digging by mid-August", he said. Knight estimated the $690,315 cost of the arena would raise the local fund raising objective to $175,.000 from the current $150,000 objective. "We're probably looking at raising the ob- jective another $25,000, he said. The original fund raising objective was based on an estimated ° total cost of $600,000 for construction of the arena.
