Now, because of circumstances over which there can be no control, it is necessary to provide new swimming facilities. Read these facts. Decide now to help to as great an extent as possible when the canvasser calls. Your contribution is a recognition of the benefits you and your family have enjoyed in the past at the Lions Park and Pool. It is an assur- ance that you and others can continue to enjoy the Park and Pool in the future. Why is a new Pool necessary ? The existing pool,' since its construction twenty years ago, has been feel from the waters of Silver Creek. The flow of water during recent years has reduced now to a point where proper conditions can no longer be maintained: How will the Pool be financed ? The Lions Club has on. hand $5,000. A Provincial grant of $5,000 is assured. A canvass of the district is expected to raise $20,000. The Lions Club is pledged to raise the balance by spon- soring various special events. ' What is the cost ? The Pool is estimated to cost $40,000. This amount includes the construction of the concrete tank, the provision and installa- tion of filtration and chlorination equipment and fencing. Will there be an admission charged for the use of the Park ? No; there never has been a charge made for the use of the Park. Certain group, however, do make contributions, There will be small charges made for the use of the pool, as is the case in all similar pools. While rates have not been established, the amounts charged will be nominal, and season tickets will be available. What accommodation will there be for small children ? The over-all proposal provides for a wading pool for chil- dren. It will be arranged in such a fashion that there will be no danger of children getting into sleep water. Where will the Pool be built ? To the east of the existing bathhouse and pavilion. It will be approximately 100 feet by 50 feet. Is municipal aid received for maintenance of the Park ? Seaforth pays an annual grant of $125.00; Tuckersmith, $25.00; and McKillop, $35.00: a total of. $185.00. The Lions Club pays annual taxes, amounting to approximately $147, to Tuck- ersmith Township. Who will maintain and operate the Park and Pool ? The Seaforth Lions Club, in the same manner as has been done since the park was first established. The Club, with the co-operation of the public, pays operating costs in excess of $3,000 each year. How will the Poal be designed ? A widely -known firm, of consulting engineers is designing the technical aspects of the pool and equipment. The Depart- ment of Health of Ontario specifies the extent to which filtration and chlorination equipment must be provided to maintain pure water at all tines. The water in the pool will be completely changed every eight hours. What is the cost to the town ? There 1s no cost to the town. The Provincial Government, in making available a grant for a pool, states the grant must be paid ta a municipality, not to a Service Club. This means the town must 'appoint a committee to receive the grant. The Lions Club, who for twenty-five years has maintained the Park and Pool, will continue to do so. Will there be lifeguards ? Lifeguards will be on duty at all times during which the pool is open. Regular instruction classes will be held. Are donations gifts for income tax purposes ? Yes; donations are deductible on income tax. returns to the extent provided by law. GIVE GENEROUSLY ! 41
