See our Representative FAYE COOK at: The Wingham Motel, Wingham the 2nd and 3rd Tuesday'of each month [Next Visit: July 17] FEDERAL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT BANK on: THE BRUSSELS POST, JULY 11, 1970 13 RDOP hears from local people 2036 to 4146 646 to 16" The Rural Development Outreach Project (RDOP), funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and operated by the University of Guelph, held an informal reception in Wingham recently to discover what the people of Huron County really think of the program. The project has operated in Huron County, particularly the Wingham and Turnberry Township area, for the past two and a half years. Vivienne Newnham of Seaforth, attending on behalf of the Van Egmond foundation, thanked the RDOP for their assistance in providing funds for student Marlene Turnbull to catalogue historical materials at the home last summer. Mrs. Newnham said having Ms. Turnbull working at the house was "A terrific beginning for us." She added the RDOP's help got the foundation started in an organized way, since "we didn't have the expertise to do it ourselves. Gerry Ginn, former warden of Huron County, said the country has gained considerably from the RDOP's involvement in the area. He said when someone left Goderich Township $192,000 to build a township hall, the RDOP helped organize public participation sessions to discuss plans and location of the hall. He said township-organized meetings attracted only about 30 people, but the meeting organized through the RDOP outreach program attracted over 100 participants. He told RDOP staff, "We in Huron still have a little bit we could learn." He said the staff shouldn't get discouraged since "in staid old Huron, it takes time to change." Inge Wraith of Wingham, who worked on the RDOP transporation study with senior citizens, said, she thinks .the project has been valuable in demolishing the ivory tower image of the university and would like to see it continue its involvement in the community. She said the study proved there was a lack of transporation in the north of the.county and that "many of the solutions rested on the shoulders of volunteers," She said the RDOP provided leadership and awareness in studying the problem. As a result of the study, a local bus driver is offering once a month trips to either Kitchener-Waterloo or. London and volunteers are transporting senior citizens to events in the area. Mrs. Wraith said her only criticism was she felt the RDOP's direction was disappointing and said she di dn't realize the project was taking a non directive approach in their work in the county. Professor Tony Fuller of , the University of Guelph .praised Louise Marritt, the local o-ordinator of the project who lives and works in the Wingham area, for her involvement with the community.
