SThe bike-a-thon left Nesting Furniture at about 9:00 a.m. taking the riders south past Morgans Corners to the Lakeshore which they foilow- ed up through Newcastle along the back roads to Orono and finaily ending Up at the Orono Park. Upon jeaching the park the cyclists were given a chance to fill theirempty stomachs with hotdogs and fruit drinks. A draw held after everybody had returned sent a lucky boy and girl home each with a new 10 speed bicycle.

H1e pointed out that the present contract for $777,300. did not include the completion of the community centres room but that this work was considered in the extra costs of $151,700.00, that brings the total to $929,000. In the $929,000.00 expendi- ture ail funds from Wintario, 'ommunity Centre and Agri- cultural Grants were avail- able. The contribution from public donations lias been set at $263,000.00 of which amount $147,000,00 has now been raised. The completion of the community centres room said -Mr. Gray is now to be done iocaiiy and not through con- tract with the,.present con- tractor who had given an estimate of $67,000-00 to compiete the room. It is expected that the same work can be done iocaiiy for somnewfiere around $30,000.00. This saving, said Mr. Gray, wouid reduce the amount to be coiiected locaily through donations. IIYDRO HOLD-UP At the present time there is some deiay in the compietion of the project due to the arrivai >0f three three-phase tranisformiers for the com- plex.

The transformers were or- dered in January and up to this date only two of the three transformers have arrived. Mr. Gray said the project - may be held up until the middle of July for compietion. The arena committee is now negotiating with the Ganaraska Region Conserv- ation Authority to be able to fi in part of the ravine to provide parking at the south of the arena building.
