Did you know--that the American Legion Auxiliary in Wonder Lake sponsors, in part, the Girls Scout Troop 168 and also sponsors a boy from Wilson Cottage. This boy receives a Christmas and a birthday gift from the auxiliary and they also help him with his hobby of collecting foreign stamps. If you have any of these stamps please give them to us to send to this boy. There is also what is called an eight point program. Each point is for something needed by the hospitalized veterans such as insulin .cigarettes, etc. The auxiliary contributes to each of these eight points.

Ground breaking for construction is scheduled for mid- November, with completion for the boating season next year.1 according to "the officers.

Who said our Scouts aren't adventurous?!!!! tricft and Wonder Lake fire protection district, the spokesmen pointed out. It also will contribute business dues to Wonder Center Property Owners subdivision, in which it is located. Amon^ innovations for boats marina installations will be the elimination of a boat launching ramp--all launching will be by overhead rail and electrically operated chain hoists of boats of Wonder Lake property owners who use the services. Tri-Marine has agreed in a perpetual contract not to seek a liquor or restaurant license, or dispense alcoholic beverages. The building will measure 50x150 feet, constructed of poured reinforced concrete below ground level and painted concrete block at the singlestory level. Building height .will be tapered to conform to 'land contour, rising only eight feet above ground on the land I side- to minimize obstruction of the lake. The principal building components consist of steel, prestressed concrete and concrete blocb£ Operating areas will include a showroom lor boats, motors and accessories, walled-off motor and engine service shop and refinishing areas all in the lower level and seasonal boat storage facilities above. Sani- >'j. tary facilities also are being : installed to meet the needs of; modern marinas. The facility will be staffed by factory1 v trained service representative#^ The newest method of hanJI ling power and sail boats safo^" ly in and out of storage is be»> ing installed, so that a Wonder Lake boat owner can have a boat moved into and out of storage in a matter of a few minutes, by mekns of overhead lifts and craule storage. A steel seawall lS^jo be installed at the front of the building. The approach will be marked by prescribed bouys to compel boat operators to move within speed limits at minimal forward motion in approaching the marina. One of the principal construction objectives is to save virtually all of the larg£ trees now growing on the property. Officers of Tri-Marine said that plans for the development of the facility, considered by many prominent boat owners residing at the lake to be needed for many years, have been in development stages for several months.
