Airport farmland leased
At a recent meeting of the Goderich
Municipal Airport Committee, a decision
was made to lease the farmland at the
airport to Ted Johnston of R.R. 2 Goderich
at the price of $46.40 per acre for a total of
$6,789 per year for 1984, 1985 and 1986 and at
$48 per acre for a total of $7,008 per year for
1987 and 1988.
There was a discussion about moving the
airport's automated weather station into the
new terminal building but this is not ex-
pected to happen in 1983 or 1984., The station
is now located in a town owned building at
the airport which is leased by Public Works
Canada.
Secretary Ken Hunter informed the
committee that Airport Manager Ed
Scruton and himself had recently met with
Bonnie Kertesz, the leasing agent for Public
Works Canada, with regard to the lease of
the weather station. She informed them that
Public Works Canada no longer needs the
whole building for its use. Hunter and
Scruton told Kertesz that rather than reduce
the amount of space now leased in the
present building, it would be adviseable to
everyone if the station was moved to the new
terminal building.
The committee also discussed the weather
reporting system at the airport and whether
or not it should actively pursue Environ-
ment Canada for changes in the system. It
was suggested that either the present
station be manned or that its autoniation
system be updated so that it is of use to
pilots.
Foster parents wanted:
long hours, hard work,
at
Being a foster parent is a tough job. It's full-time. Twenty-four hours a day. Often
frustrating, and always demanding of your patience, energy and love.
Yet despite its demands, or maybe because of them, thousands of
people take foster children into their homes each year.
Some are children, some are teenagers. Some have special physical or
emotional needs. But all have one thing in common. They need a sense
of place and security to help them through a difficult period in their lives,
and to prepare them for reuniting with their families.
There's a very basic joy in sharing with a child or young person some of
the richness that life has given you.
As part of a team of social workers and other professionals, you'll be helping
foster children and their parents when they need help most. And helping
yourself at the same time, to mature and grow as an individual.
If you'd like to learn more about becoming a foster parent, contact your local
Children's Aid Society or Family
and Children's Services.
It's not an easy task. Few lobs
demand more of a person.
But fewer still give more in return.

Robindp'ie Dining.
features reasonable prices
and warm atmosphere
A warm atmosphere, friendly owners and
reasonably priced food are all part of
Robindale's Fine Dining restaurant. With
three dining rooms and a lounge, the
restaurant is spacious, but not without the
home -like feeling.
Owners Rob McGregor and Dale Dolson,
formerly of Kincardine, had a big "pipe
dream" that they have turned into reality.
As hotel management graduates, they had
jobs in a restaurant in Kincardine.
McGregor was the beverage manager and
Dolson was the assistant inn keeper, both for
six years, but their dream was to one day
own their own restaurant. On August 12 the
two men took possession of the old Cooper
house, located on the corner of Victoria and
Hamilton Streets.
McGregor and Dolson chose an old house
for their restaurant because they wanted
something that had atmosphere, plus, it was
easy to convert into the type of establish-
ment they wanted.
It took them nine weeks to get the wall
papering, carpeting and painting done,
doing everything themselves except the

aue
plumbing and electricity. They even con-
verted the two coal bins in the basement into
washrooms. They had to refinish the roofs
and clean the walls, but it would be hard to
tell that they were once used to hold coal.
The restaurant seats 52 people plus an
additional 10 in the parlor. Seafood, steak,
chicken and some of the owners' own
creations are served.
McGregor and Dolson are only taking as
many guests as they think they can handle.
"We are starting slowly so that everyone
goes away pleased with the restaurant,"
explained Dolson.
"We want to create the impression of
welcome to our house, you are our company,
not our customers," commented McGregor.
Eventually the two men want to be able to
offer lunch to their "company", but right
now they are open from 5-10 p.m.
