How often do we hear that staternent! What are weN doing to make it more attractive? Today people are thinking more of social change. In 1954 the Executive Director of the Na- tional Recreation Association of America, whom I heard speak at an International Conference, made this statement in a pam- phlet written at that time: "A community with good recreation opportunities tennis to attract liom'-seekers and new indus- tries." We have Stratford as one illustration. In September, 1962, we read this statement: "Ten years of the Festival, indeed, have changed the whole atmosphere of Stratford." I heard, and met the man who came to Toronto to help the Ontario Govern- ment plan and organize the Community Programs Branoh, under the Department of •Edu- cation.^ It was also, emphasized what could be done with a vac- ant lot. We have a good illus- tration of that in the Judith Goodenharn Playground, here in Goderich. I understand it is one of the best playgrounds in Western Ontario. The 'play- ground was donated by, Mr. and W Mrs. H. W. Knight pf Toronto. Now the citizens of Goderich have another opportunity to voice their opinion regarding Harbor Park and the trailer camp. One visitor told me last summer that he didn't want to stay here, because it was too congested. .People have said how disappointed they were that there is no longer any space for picnics,. and plan to go elsewhere. Parks -belong to everyone. Therefore; your r municipal gov- ernment has to make decisions for you. Some comments I have heard, are not very good.

Mr. Neill suggested -erection of a 60 by 80 foot addition at the rear on Bruce Street. The curator said scores of articles are on hand but lack of space prevents their display. Three Seed the Art Clutl had a wonderfu !iheard, was. to put the trailer out-d,por exhibit and sold many paintings at their Art Mart. Outsiders sometimes see what we do not see ourselves. The trailer camp should be moved now, to a suitable spot, where the facilities which Goderich has are accessible -the bathing beach, the ideal shopping centre on the Square, the Museum, the children's playground a n d swimming pool. We have a good golf course and a new clubhouse. There are nine churches, five industries and the town population is 6700. Where the trailer camp is now, could be transformed into a beautiful garden, as a project for the Horticultural Society. The park itself could be made more attractive for tourists, townspeople and picnickers and camp on the grounds of Agri cultural Park. We should not allow this either. Agricultural Park -is being used for ball games, and the arena is also there. The people interested in these activities should not be interfered with in any way whatsoever. It would be cheap- er and more satisfactory to make and equip a trailer camp, with hydro and water. I have ideas about this, but so have you. They may be better than mine. Think it over. JOSIE G.
