Whatever we have been able to achieve is due in no small measure to the active encouragement and support of many individuals and organizations. Accordingly the Bowmanville Chamber of Commerce wvelcomes this opportunity to extend sincere good wishes for a very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year - - to the Mayor and members of Council whose confi- dent support has made possible our continuing program of industrial and civic development; - to the Bowmanville Planning & Development Board whose members have devoted so much time and thought to the orderly development of our com- munity; - to "The Canadian Statesman" through whose columns our fellow-citizens have been thoroughly informed of Chamber activities; and - to the citizens at large for their friendly support and assistance in many of our projects. We firmly believe that our home town stands on the threshold of great developments and as a New Year dawns the Bowmanville Chamber of Commerce rededicates itself tô building a better communitv.
