Walton WI need financial help A delegation from the Walton Women's Institute (WW1) told a meeting of McKillop council recently that renovations to, the Walton Cormunity Hall are needed if it is to continue in a communal capacity. They requested financial assistance from the council to make that a possibility. • Margaret Craig and Margaret Shortreed told council that the hall needs to be equipped with washroom and kitchen facilities of there would be no point in the WWI maintaining its upkeep of the hall. "Right now we have no facilities as far as hot water goes, so we can't rent the hall because it is not very serviceable and wouldn't be worth the money 'we'd charge. We can't even meet the demand for catering in the area because the hall isn't.properly equipped," said Miss Shortreed. The WWI was given lease of the Walton Hall along with the rights to a six foot perimeter around the building as long as it remained a community hall. Should the hall cease to be, it would revert back to private ownership. At present the cost of renovating the hall is. estimated at S6,000, The W41{f has already raised 52,000 of that amount and have approached Grey and Morris Townships for financial aid in addition to their request for funds from McKillop Township. They say they are hoping that with the addition of washroom and kitchen facilities, the hall can become a self. sufficient and viable commun- ity centre. "We may need more renodations in the future, or we may be able to get .try for years on the renovations we make now. We don't know," said Miss Shortreed. "It's hard to guess what we'll need further down the road btst we figure the institute can cover other costs as they come up," she said. McKillop council. while seefningly in concordance with the request, gave no reply at the' meeting and suggested the WW1 return to them once some of the legalities surrounding the land and the building were • settled. "We want to make sure we aren't spending money on something that might revert to a private owner," said councillor Bill Siemori. CWL Christmas auction will be held in Brussels The Oct.
