Tuckey told council that while it was forward thinking to plan for the possible Lake Huron Parkway to attract tourists to the area, it was im- portant to have something to hold the interest of the visitors once they have arrived. That's where services such as Huron County Playhouse come in. Attendance at the Playhouse increased by 60 percent this year, according to Tuckey. He said attendance would have to go up by at .least that much again this coming season. He described the ,...0. / nd_ Bend theatre effort as "behind the eight ball" where finances are concerned and urged the county to give consideration to the group's request for ad- ditional funding for the coming year.
