The ReStore is only a temporary site, as Goderich 'Ibwn Council ap- proved the not -for -profit's site plan agreement for a permanent Parsons Court home June 15. In the interim, the ReStore will continue with a strong focus on the three Rs - reducing, reusing and re- cycling. The store not only allows homeown- ers to purchase affordable new or used building materials, but works. to redirect waste from landfills and offers discontinued products that would normally end up discarded. Executive director of HHHC, Kevin Morrison, said the reusing of materi- als becomes much more necessary as the Mid -Huron Landfill Site looms closer to its closure date. "We have a situation with our lo- cal landfill," he said. "It's going to close. There is a lot of product (being thrown away) that could have been donated." All .profits made from the ReStore will go toward Habitat for Human- ity builds, and Morrison said govern- ment stimulus funding .could allow the volunteer group to acquire full-, time employees for the retail opera- tion. Giant Tiger manager Mike Berry said the store is. "more than happy to support" HHHC, and Morrison said his work in donating the building for Habitat use has saved them upwards of $25,000. "It is truly a community partner- ship," he said. "I've never been in- volved with such dedicated volun- teers. - "We're not a cause, we're a move- ment." Huron County's Habitat group con- tinues to raise the bar for the non- profit organization, achieving one new •home built every year and Wok- ing to the possibility of two builds annually in the near future. "Numerous affiliates don't do that,", he said. "We are a model for commu- nities ommu- n_ ities this size." Huron Business Development Corporation president Pam Stanley offered her thanks to the Habitat group, saying they • "brought anoth- Volunteer Bob Rowe er dimension to Huron County." Goderich Coun. Myles Murdock said HHHC fills in the gaps in the community where gov- ernment organizations fall short. "Local governments cover the basics of life, but it's the quality of life that matters," he said. "Organizations like this really improve that." Morrison offered his thanks to the munici- palities of Goderich and Central Huron for their support and coopera- tion. He also expressedthis gratitude for the hours put in by the Willing Workers of - Goderich, volunteering their time to arrange the prod- uct currently stored in trailers and garages in the new ReStore. The store will be open for business July 4 at 10 a.m. DOUG CAMPBELL TEXTURED CONCRETE STAMPING • mike! esti barQard mutes • ss ily seer wend dd caw* DIIOorr 4pplusikes elth t Anil res, Iaal,, etete, hon, plan, beam ere. • maw 4 jlioriolu Mdii a kirewr, Hdeeldk+, sept, pad dab, Mire, foredetiau, BBQ at. • temeol,repair AI •pegs CERTIFIED FLEX -CEMENT INSTALLER 519.527.0721 cell 441.3684 RRl1 Sea(w th diamondconciete®tcc.on.ca • PERSONAL SECURITY • ALARM RESPONSE • LOSS PREVENTION • GUARD SERVICE office/fax: 519-393-5289 cell: 519-801-0246 email: tntgroupinc@rogers.com Renovating? call MIN IBLUIEWWINDOWS ATER MEIMMOIMIMMINI '�` 4" .
