They have to be the people that show us the way he said No definite price has been pinned on the country club but Mr Coffey mentioned cost hovering around the million dollar mark We havent set price on it as such but we know that to replace this property as golf club would be darn close to $1 million so we think we have to consider this figure or figure in that vicinity Mr Coffey said the board was hopeful that the potential buyer would carry on as golf course operation He feels should it be allowed to die that it would be the last Barrie would see of the country club My impression is such that if the Barrie Golf and Country Club was to be taken out of ex istence completely that you would never see another One ever in this area because the cost of producing not only the building and its facilities but to assemble the land and build golf course would probably be far beyond what any investor would like to invest Mr Coffey stated that he thought Barrie would suffer very very definitely without country club really dont think they realize what they stand to lose he said Mr Coffey stressed that the club had commitment to its members up until the end of the season He said the club had
