New marina proposed Grand Bend council has called a meeting for August 27 to discuss a proposal from Southcott Pines Parklands Limited to establish a marina and yacht basin. At that time residents in the area will be told of the proposal by the developers and their engineer B.M. Ross of Goderich. Don Southcott, representing Southcott Pines said his group was far enough advanced with the plan "to take it to ' the residents in a public meeting." Southcott said the marina would be designed to ac- commodate sailing craft. He added, "The present trend seems to be to sailing and away from smaller craft." Reeve Bob Sharen said his greatest concerns and those of residents were roads and drainage. He added, "nobody will disagree with more boating sites but I'm concerned with disrup- tion of the neighbourhood." According to present plans, River Road would be closed off in the area of the present yacht club. Deputy -reeve Rollie Grenier suggested Lake Road would have to be widened to take care of the added traffic from River Road. Residents who would be most affected by the marina in- stallation would "beiiin the areas of River and Lake Road and Alberta and Orchard Streets along with the commercial fishermen. In calling a meeting for August 27, Reeve Sharen said a decision , must be made soon as the village's sewer system is being designed. Sharen added, "Soil tests are being taken this week for the sewers." Southcott said plans called for adequate parking for up to 40 cars and additional parking space could be made available on the south side of Lake Road on the old river bed. Personals Dr. and Mrs. E.R. MacAulay, of Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, and family and Mr. and Mrs. Clare Zurbrigg and family of Kitchener, have been spending holidays with their mother, Mrs. Beatrice Rader. Mrs. Leona Rader entertained the Rader families at a picnic at her home Sunday afternoon. Guests were present from Chat- ham, Woodstock, Kitchener, Shu- benacadie, N.S. and Seaforth. Mrs. Tillie lddines and Mr. and Mrs. Neils Bozarth of Berwyn, Alberta visited with relatives also attending the Rader picrfic. Mrs. Iddenes was the former Tiller Messner, a former resid- ent of Hay Township. The Lutheran Vacation Church School came to a close last Fri- day with the 40 children enter- taining the Blue Water Rest Home. Lunch was served later at the church by the L.C.W. executive. Education pays, but you can't collect without hard work. There is good in all—to those who are altogether good. Don't worry about inflation— it's just a drop in the buck.
