There are how­ ever lots of committee members who require assistance. At this point the group has no one to chair the parade or to look after the Sundav night barbecue. They are also looking for people to help with the children’s games. Merchants who attended the meeting are looking for input from other store owners on what to plan for the downtown area so that they will be able to keep the buisness area busy, too. Though some of the activities are fund raisers for the club that is organizing them the main purpose of the Funfest is to donate the major portion of the money to the capital reserve fund of the arena. The community centre takes a large amount of money to operate and it is hoped that this will start a fund that will keep building. The com­ mittee would like to see Fun Fest become an annual event.
