the County Arts and Crafts As sociation which finances itself except for stuff assistance it would be little help to the bud get to out off service to such groups WIIY MORE STAFF This brought up the question of why more staff is needed it is because of the many de mands from new areas rather than for more attention to those already using the county scr Vice The increased demands are result of population increase changes in the community and growing desire by volunteer workers in community organi zations to seek professional ad vice to strengthen their organi zational efforts The meeting was organized into discussion groups to list the problems and seek solu tions The reports showed that many anticipated lack of sym pathy from their council mem bers and some suggested con tacting service clubs In general it was agreed that the municipal council should be more concerned than service clubs in providing adequate fin snces However the feeling that service clubs would find no difficulty in obtaining mon ey strengthened the opinion that the municipal council could also find the money It was emphasized that to creation is becoming an import ant industry in Simcoe County
