All the neces= sary data has been received and is being documented on the forms, to be forwarded to Thunder Bay and onto Toronto. It is highly unlikely that this project will start in 1978, but will start in the Spring, if approval is received. We have gotten favourable response back from Toronto as far as our enriched Wintario grant, It will be on the full replacement value of the arena, not on $120,000.00 as we had been told. This is a direct result of the in-depth study done in August, 1978. : From here it is a matter of making sure all information is documented and detailed, the proper forms and figures are sub- mitte! and waiting for the results. Additional Private/Public monies will have to be raised so we can benefit fully from Wintario. The exact amount is not known at this time, however, once it is, the public will be made aware. The total in cash, pledges, payroll at this time is $107,092.39. Of this $52,458.39 is cash, $54,634.00 is remain- ing pledges and payroll. Those who made pledges are asked to come to the Town Office and make the monthly payment or what- ever your method of donation was when making your pledge. The Fund Raising Committee and project is in a Catch 22 situation, where people are saying no construction - no dona- tion and yet if there is no donation - there is no construc- tion. .
