Goal of 517,^00
set by Maitland
to retire debt
A goal of raisin, $17,000_,
was set by members of die
Maitland Conservation
Foundation at their Annual
Meeting on May 7 at the
Maitland Valley Con-
servation Authority's ad-
ministration office in
Wroxeter.
Thin is the amount
required to retire the debt on
the Wawanosh Lake
property., located in West
Wawanosh. Raising of funds
for this project was begun in
1978 and to date .the .Foun-
dation has been successful in
raising $7,800. in addition to
the $25,000. raised by the
Nature Conservancy of
Canada.
Fonowing approval' of the
minutes of the Foundation's
last meeting, additional
funding targets for 1981-82
were discussed. Donations
toward: the acquisition of
significant natural areas, the
continuation and further
development of a Con-
servation l;'du!ation
program and preservation of
our cultural and historical
heritage, were cited as the
mam objectives for the
Foundation. The need for a
concerted effort in
promoting the Foundation,
its purpdse and objectives
was also discussed and plans
put in gear to inform
residents and businesses of
the_watershed as.ta iustew.hat
theFoundation is all about.
Other business at the
meeting included the elec-
tion
lee-tion of the Board of Directors
for the 1981 year. They are as
follows: Jack Graul
(Chairman); Vince Judge
(Vice -Chairman); Dave
Gower, Tom Sanderson and
Bill Elliott. Other members
Of the Foundation are:.
Douglas Bricker, Lorne
Murray, Carl Dalton, John
Hindmarsh, Ian Deslauriers
and MarleneShiell.
Discussion over the
Foundation's progress to
date raised some feelings of
concern because of the slow
process involved in reaching
their targets. While the in-
dividual ttneriibers indicated
that they often find it dif-
ficult to go on a door to door
campaign, the .chairman
pointed out tint if they were
not together as a Foun-
dation, tyre would be no
donations at all, and that
some of the areas in which
the Foundation has been
active in raising funds for
may have been left un-
protected.
While there are some
companies and individuals
who are able and may wish
to make a sizeable donation,
the members agreed that the
amount of. tile donation is not
the important item. It was
agreed that a tax receipt
would be used to all
donations of $5.00 or more. In
addition to cash donations by
Foundation actively seeks
donations of conservation
artifacts and antiques which
can be appraised and a tax

ahead of them will require
some patience and a great

operation will mean the
success in reaching their
objective.

Christian teaching
-a family matter
"Faith, not tear" was the
underlying theme of the
speech given by the
Reverend A. Kuyvenhoven
,at the spring membership
meeting of the Wingham and
District Interdenomina-
tional Christian High School
Society.
One hundred and twelve
people heard him explain
that `the responsibility for
teaching the Christian way
of life Is a personal (family)
one, but also a corporate
(Church and aeriool) nim
date. Originally, in united
States and Canada, all
schools were owned and con-
trolled by churches, but over
the last number of years
there has been a growing
separation between church
and school, and a trend
toward government control
of children's education.
The W.D.LC.H.S.S. is
made up of parents who are
interested in having their
children taught from a
perspective which is in har-
mony with the Christian
view of life at home. Plans
are to form a Christian High
School in the Wingham area
in the near future.
