These are the fidlngs of a study beig conduc- ted by Marshall, Mackiln, Monaghan for the Whitby Historical Society, on the feasabllty of a museum for Whitby. However, the executive of the society wll flot relesse the fin- <lInge of the study as to whether or not Cullen Gardens la the preferred site for the town's museum. The town ie currently negotlating with Len Cullen on moving Lynde House to Cullen Gar- dens and using it as a museuni.

Thirty-five percent said they would contribute $10 a year, 26 percent would con- tribute $5 a year and 14 percent would con- tribute $25 a year. The survey estimates that of the 2,000 familles ln Whitby and Brooklln $150.000 a year would be contributed to a museumn. ,'This le marvellous," Angevaare said about the resulte. 1"Even some people that have neyer vieited Lynde House were willng te, con- tribute."

With 80 acres of land involved, the cost per acre was *3,303, but the new owner ls stIi unknown. (The sale of tbe land bas not been registered yet.)

Ducks unlimited fund raiser The Port Perry and District Chapter of Ducks Unlimnited Canada bas anaouaced that its second annual banquet will be held at the Immacuate Con- ception Hall, Hwy. 7A, Port Perry, on Novem- ber 13.

"Ducks Unliznited bas been preserving and restoring wetlaad habitat in Canada for more than 40 yenrs," sys Co-chairnian Bert Hutcheon. During that time, Canadian lan- dewaere, goveraments, corporations and la- dividuals have made more than three million acres available free of charge for some 2,100 individual D.U. projecte scattered -throughout the nation. Now there's growing intereet from Canadians te contribute financially te the future of water- fowl and wetlaads con- servation. These banquets are one way for sportsmen and other censervationiste te make solid con- tributions te Ducks Ualimnited's time- proven habitat pregram. Hutcheon explains that natural wetlands throughout Canada are under continulng and in- tensive pressure from a variety of developers. "Ducks Unllmited le the only private, non-profit organization iniNorth America doing somethlng , te offset these babità losses, " he sys. Tickets for the Port Perry banquet are available at $30 each and include a one year subscription te the coleurful and infor- mative Ducks Unlimnited magazine.
