Dear Editor:
I am writing to address the subject of
what Seaforth Fall Fair didn't offer last
week.
There were events advertised that did
not happen, but that was due to the
unavailability of manpower on which the
Agricultural Society counted.
Before you utter the statement "Seaforth
Fall Fair has nothing to offer me", please
consider what you night have had to offer
the fair.
Our community is rich in resources of
talented people and the wonderful things
that happen when we all work together are
marvellous.
If you belong to a fellow organization in
our community, what was their response
when the Ag Society asked them to help
by taking midway tickets, running a snack
booth or bingo?
The members of the Agricultural Socie-
ty are just like yourself. They have

In my opinion, just because $15,000
dollars was set aside for the statue, it
sounds like the committee did not do their
homework so I would say it should go
back to square one and have to go through
the process again and get further public in-
put, in which case I think the statues
should be forgotten about.
Other towns in this day and age are not
crazy enough to waste $15,000 to $20,000 on
a statue, let alone three possible statues.
