Optimists
help schools
By JOY SCHEIFELE
The East Williams
Optimists Club recently
donated $100 to both the East
Williams and theMcGillivray
Central Public Schools to
help purchase new
playground equipment. The
Home • and School
Associations have taken on
the project of improving the
playgrounds in both schools.,
and the Optimists have given
support to the endeavour.
A. special meeting was
called last Wednesday by
club president, Phillip
Miller, to discuss the future
of the club, as attendance at
past meetings had been poor
and there appeared to be a
declining interest on the part
of the membership.
A keenness to continue the
work nevertheless, was felt
by the eight members who
responded to the meeting
called. There was , strong
affirmation for carrying on
the activities of the East
Williams Optimist Club
rather than bringing it to a
close.
It was felt enough interest
was present to continue as a
viable club and many needs
within the community would
go unattended if the mem-
bers disbanded.
Plans are currently un-
derway to establish a
monthly newsletter to keep
members fully informed of
plans and progress being
made, and to encourage new
members.
Another meeting has been
set for the first of October at
the Nairn Hall when further
plans will be formulated arid
an executive re-established.
