gram together to
help provide peo-
ple with a hot
ineal.
One of the
organizers of the
meal program,
Joanne Todd, felt it
was something the
churches could do
to help people who
are in need.
"This is an eco-
nomic challenge
for a lot of people;
there are people
losing their jobs
and this is 'a
response to see
how we can help
people out in own
community," said
Todd. "We thought
what was the. best
way to do this, and
our churches are
really good pro-
ducers of food, so
a community meal
program was a
great way to do
that."
The charitable
program will take
place the first three
Tuesdays of May,
June and July
inclusive.
The Anglican
church will start
things off on May
5 at 5:30 p.m.,
then the Christian
Reformed church
will take the fol-
lowing Tuesday
and then the
United Church
will take the third
Tuesday of the
month.
"The idea of
doing the meal in
the evening at 5:30
is it will be geared
towards family,"
said Todd. "And
anyone else who is
facing economic
challenges to come
out and join us."
The meal is of
course free and it's

problems, the Township is proposing to replace the bridge with a structure capable of accommodating two
lanes of traffic. The approach roads would also be re -graded in conjunction with this work.
At this time, it is anticipated that the bridge replacement would be completed during the 2009 construction
Season. The affected road section of River Mill linewould be closed during the construction period and
traffic would be diverted around the project site onto adjacent roads. Project costs would be partially
