The annual township newsletter, prepared and presented by Doug Yeo, was discussed, revised slightly and approved for puhlication and mailing to all township residents on May 1. It is hoped that the township folk will look for this newsletter by mail and keep it handy during the next season for im- portant dates to remember.' Two im- portant forms are in the newsletter, learn to swim forms to be filled out and returned to the rec committee and also a questionnaire on the building of the new township hall. Hopefully this questionnaire will meet a needs study that the rec council wants. Last year a public meeting was held to discuss the new building and this is yet another chance for as many people's opinion to be recognized and con- sidered. Some of the questions will be; are you in favor of a new sports complex; where do you wish it to be placed in the township; what activities would you like in it; what rooms would you like in it (meeting rooms, reception hall, library, etc.) ; do you have suggestions on how to keep operating costs down? -There will also be a remarks space left for any further thoughts and suggestions.
