Successful fundraising
EXETER - "A very successful
fundraising project." That's how
Ted Jones, a director of the Ausable
Bayfield Conservation Foundation
described the receiving of donations
f•u the purchase of a machine
equipped with hand controls for
Rock Glen Conservation Arca Su-•
perintendent, Andy Buchan. Because
of a congenital hip, Mr. Buchan's
mobility is limited. Thc Founda-
tion received donations from the
Exeter and Arkona Lions Clubs,
Huron Tractor Limited and individu-
als.
Conservation projects
This project is a prime example
of Foundation work. The goal of
the Foundation is to aid the Ausa-
ble Bayfield Conservation Authori-
ty in its conservation endeavors by
continuing and initiating conserva-
tion programs that would not he
normally undertaken by the ARCA
because of insufficient funding.
Past Foundation projects include
the Annual Conservation Award for
the Huron County Science Fair;
Parkhill Waterfowl Pond and Warm
Up Shelter/Viewing Platform at
Parkhill Conservation Arca and co-
sponsoring the Annual Morrison.
Dam Fishing Derby.
Not resting on its laurels, the
Foundation adopted new fundraising
projects at its April 21 meeting.
Four hundred dollars will aid in the
stocking of the Morrison Dam Res-
ervoir for the 1988 fishing derby.
The development of trails suitable
for wheelchairs has also been for-
mally accepted as a project. Wetland
acquisition will be discussed further
at future meetings.

lied upon as sources of funds. "Wc
believe there are a large number of
individuals who arc interested in
conservation and who wish to con-
tribute to the effort" says Earl Rees,
Chairman of the ABCF. "By con-
tributing to the work of the Conser-
vation Foundation, people can help
to ensure that our natural resources
are used wisely now and in the fu-
ture. The Foundation is a registered
charitable organization. Donations
are tax deductible."
A popular method of donating
funds is in memory of a friend or
relative. Perhaps the individual was
a conservationist and donating mon-
ey to be used in conservation in
memory of that individual is appro-
priate. To facilitate this, donor cards
will soon be available at local fu-
neral homes.
The Conservation Foundation is
excited about the positive response
it has received from watershed
groups and individuals and hopes to
continue to fulfill its important role
in conserving our natural resources.
