However, the response to date has been very disappointing, as the majolity of thosecontacted do not appear interested in entering floats n the parade, even though they ave made a monetary contribu- Although all funds received are greatly appreciated, says Mr. Cur- ie, it does not make a parade.

In a 19-14 recorded vote at last Thursday's session of county coun- cil, members voted in favor of a rec- ommendation of the Huronview site selection committee to choose a site located just outside Brussels in Morris Township, owned •by William and Marie Turnbull. What is required now is soil -test- ing of the site and final approval of the Ontario Ministry of Conurtunity and Social Services, which funds capital and operating costs for nursing homes. For the Turnberry-Wingh Committee for Huronview Noirth, the decision came as a bitter disap- pointment. The group has been lob- bying for several months to have the 80 -bed satellite home built here and even had a consultant's report prepared to state its case. However, a ministry of health decision late last month to allow the owner of theCallander Nursing Home at Brussels to amalgamate its 34 beds with the 35 beds at Brookhaven in Wingham did little to help the Turnberry-Wingham cause. Mac MacGoWart, owner of the two nursing homes, received min- istry approval to amalgamate the two homes on Oct. 28, less than one week before the county council • vote. A delegation of enthusiastic Brussels and area siippOrteri attended last week's meeting of county council. They applauded sing Grey Reeve Leona A gO declaration of support for the Brimsels-area site.
