ORONO WEEKL.V TiMES THURSDAY, JJLY 14, 1963 ORONO WEEKTJY TIMES (Authorizedl as Secornd Class m~ail, Post Office Department, Ottawa) Roy C. Forrester - E4itor and Manager Subscription payable in advàne In Canada $1.50 In U.S.A. $2.50 Establishied in 1938 by R. A. Forrester Published every Thursday at the office of publication Main Street, Phione 109, Orono, ODntaie A Project To Support The Orono Swimming Pool $8,0O0 Needed, The Oroixo Park Board over the past week have made their most progressive steps towards the construction of a new swimn- ming tank at the Orono Park. They have determined that the only way to finance the tank is through public subscription and bave set u a committee to conduct such a canvass. Further, they bave also favoured the quotation of Partner Plumbing and Heat- ing for the construction of the tank and are to meet with the con- tractor this evening to draw-up a contract for the construction ,cf the new pool. In financing the scheme is appears that the Board lias made teonly possible decision that could be made under the cir- cu,,mstances. The sum of $12,500 for the construction of the pool is not available in cash and as the Board lias no collateral for borrowîng money they must then turn to the public subscription plan of obtaining the necessary funds. The Board itself lias a tot ,al (f S4,500 to throw inito the fund which leaves $8,000 to be raised inJ order that thie pool inay be completed with * aIl the necessary e- quipment and facilities.. The Committee in charge of the fund are already laying plans and hofpe that the public will mneet the cam- gaign ihin immediate response. It was the opinion that back- )nvb the Township f.-r a loan of $S,f00wsdutuladta th-e only course to flo was the public subseription plan. This, ta tter, we beleive, is the better of the twýo courses and oee which shudget the show on the road without too mucli delay. There is. no. dloubt that a new pool is desired and needed at the Park. The oly hold-up now is the availability of funds for the project. The Board has also decided in its plan to con- struet the pool on a planned staged progam, if it la necessary. Thtis of course would not be necessary if, the public in the area would give the fund immediate support. The Park is of little use to the public without a swimming pool ... letsall get behind te project with a generous donation.
