Brussels has final say where funds spent Continued from page 1 he couldn't answer that question, but he felt that it would benefit everyone if some of the funds could be given to the arena to help supplement the reserve fund. "FunFcst was designed to raise capital reserves, but has been used primarily to offset the operating costs for the last few years. When the time comes that money is needed, I’m sure Brussels will expect Morris and Grey to pay their percentage share." Brussels Clerk Donna White told Mr. Newman that the village's solici­ tor had studied the agreement and reviewed the by-laws under the Community Centres Act. "It is his opinion that the money for the sale of Al a meeting of the Morris Recre­ ation Committee on April 16 it was agreed that the resolution of April 2, granting $1500 to the Belgrave Com­ munity Centre for the 1991 levy be rescinded. the property should be dispersed as Brussels council sees fit." Mr. Newman responded saying that he would not dispute that Brus­ sels should have the say in where the money goes. "I don’t argue the money belongs to Brussels. It's just my point of view that I wanted to bring for­ ward. I'd like to see it stay in the recreation budget, but I can live with wherever council decides it has to go." A letter is being sent to County Clerk Nigel Bellchamber regarding the fill from the Huronview North site. The Rec. Board has said they will take all the fill to landscape as much of the south seven acres at the Councillor Deloris Souch made a motion that Morris pay its share of the 1990 deficit for the Belgrave Community Centre Board in the amount of $1132.

One-woman show closes Undergrand season The Grand Theatre closes the Undergrand: Theatre of Choice sea­ son with My Boyfriend’s Back and There’s Gonna Be Laundry , a pro­ duction both written and performed by Sandra Shamas. A comic per­ former who burst upon the Canadian theatre scene in the late '80s, Sandra Shamas made her debut at Factory Theatre's Studio Cafe and has since played to sold-out houses across the country. My Boyfriend’s Back and There's Gonna Be Laundry is about the ins and outs of love in the late '80s. The story follows the romantic adventures of a young woman from a Northern Ontario mining community known as Sudbury as she searches for love and sanity in Toronto. On the way, we meet a gallery of one-of-a-kind char­ acters, like Louise, the francophone ticket-taker at the Odeon, who advis­ es our heroine on how to get and keep a man. "The show is about relationships between men and women; it's about individuals' relationships with their televisions; it's about lessons learned, not necessarily at mother's knee; it's about how women are depicted by the media," says Sandra. Sandra pokes fun at our supposedly liberated times through everything from the condom-packing "Smarter Garter" mail order items to Cos­ mopolitan magazine covers. Her story has a very positive message in the end: she goes from being single- minded as a woman to me duality of a partner in a relationship. Find out more about tank mixing with Lexone or Lorox.
