CALL TOM RAPSON 327-1643 #rN MASTER PLAN - Jim Sills has a look at some character sketches of what downtown Seaforth will look like once various phases of the Streetscape project are implemented. Council recently adopted the proposed master plan for improvements to downtown Seaforth. Corbett photo. Streetscaping • from page 1: organizations should be willing to help. , Some ideas to help in the funding of the project are "buy a brick" campaigns in which individuals can support the project by each making a comparatively small dona- tion. The committee is also hoping clubs and organizations will help fund a particular project or phase. And if a donor gives something such as a lamppost a plaque could be put on the item to identify the donor. PRIDE grants will be another possible source of revenue, as will corporate spon- sors, the BIA, volunteer groups, and service clubs, and all were identified in the master plan as being possible sources of offsetting project costs. Mrs. Campbell says the town has taken an important step in both starting the commit- tee, and hiring the consultants. "I guess you could say let's take some trees and plant them in the ground, but Parent thankful there's more to it than that," she says. There is an organized outlook and a con- crete long term plan available now, with proposals for funding, implementation, phasing, and long term considerations such as maintenance. To make sure this organization is kept it has been suggested the Streetscape Committee stay together .until the entire project is done (with replacements when necessary over the years). It is hoped the streetscaping will quickly become a community project, and the town is going to do one phase this fall with re- maining funding. "A lot of traffic goes by on number eight highway and doesn't even know Seaforth ex- ists," says Mrs. Campbell. "Hopefully this is going to draw people to town, and make people want to stop and see what's on Main Street. I think we've got a lot to offer, we've just got to add to what we've got." • from page 3 their position on the team by simply signing up at registration and not by attending prac- tices regularly.

Whether it was a positive or negative ex- perience for the coaches, parents or team members, these coaches deserve to be recognized for their willingness and generous gift of time given to take on the task. Many of these coaches play on spor- ting teams themselves, have their own children involved in numerous activities Record number • trom page 3 While cutting wood with a large circular saw at his farm in McKillop on Thursday, James Barron, Seaforth, received severe cuts on his hand. Mr. Barron was feeding wood into the saw when his hand slipped and the saw caught three fingers and the base of his thumb. Town workmen this week completed the levelling and seeding of the ground north of the bowling greens on Main Street. The area has been filled in during the past year and is now at street level. When completed, it will provide a pleasing entrance to the greens.

What prompted me to write this letter was the realization of what terrific baseball coaches our own children had this past sum- mer.

But there was plenty of traffic at this year's Ciderfest, with about 1,000 to 1,200 people, and about 300 people for supper com- pared to 225 last year. The weather too, was perfect, and Mrs. Williams has no real complaints. "We did the best we've ever done, but then we need to. There are only a few people and we have to keep that place running and get through the winter." What Ciderfest has made is not yet known, but it is hoped $4,000 will be raised. - T .p P.p+•t.v P.n.., direction of bandmaster George Hildebrand, will play Friday evening and throughout Saturday, returning home Satur- day evening.
