THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, 1998 Margaret and Ken Millman plan to buy their own house since winning more than $100,000 on a Super-7 ticket earlier this month. Part of that enjoyable task includes checking out real estate publications for potential candidates to inspect. Home of their own for winners of Super Seven draw By MAGGIE PETRUSHEVSKY The New Tanner Winning $110,000 in the Super-7 draw earlier this month will allow an Acton area couple to buy their own home. Margaret Millman, who picked up the winning ticket at Village Variety Smoke Shop, says she and husband Ken will put a chunk of the money away to pay for their daughter's wedding next year and invest the rest in a home of their own. "It's excellent timing", Millman grins. "The house we're renting is up for sale so now we can go for our own." The Millmans, who have lived in Acton for the past "I matched six of the seven regular numbers and thebonus number," she says. "T knew it was second prize nine years, plan to stay here. "IT love the town," Millman says. "The people in Acton are fantastic. Everyone is so friendly and warm," _ but I didn't know how much Millman says.

The Town has $110,000 in the budget to demolish the aging building, but the Acton Agricultural Society is attempting to come up with a plan to save at least part of the facility so that it will continue to have a building for its home crafts during the Fall Fair. "We'd like to keep the block building that was built in 1962, and hopefully the cement pad that the arena building sat on as well," explained Agricultural Society member Janis Fread in an interview on Saturday. Asked if the building would be sufficient for the Society's needs Fread said that it would be "better than nothing," and would provide the Fair with more washrooms and a secure place to show the antiques and other valuable home craft items that are submitted to the Fair each year. Initially the Society had hoped to garner enough interest and support among its members to try to save the entire area facility, but Fread said they've had to revise their plans to "bare bones" and what Society members feel is possible to get and manage, Fread said the proposed plan at this point would be to erect a tent on the arena pad to house some of the exhibits because the block building is not large enough. "The building would house the stuff that we are nervous about like the antiques and quilts and the rest -- the roots and vegetables and school work, could be housed in an adjoining tent," Fread explained. If the Town rejects attempts to save the block building, Fread said the Society might have to source out using a local school or another nearby facility for the home crafts and possibly the Fair's Friday night entertainment. The future of the old arena facility will be discussed at a meeting between Agricultural Society and Town officials slated for next week. PP2Q almost as bad as Weather Forecasting.
