A notice will be sent out to all. residents advising them about the . meeting to be held ,at the Center on Wednesday, July 17, at 8 p.m., in regards to forming a church in the community. Everyone interested is urged to attend. ' Ray Madock was appointed to handle arrangements for the light on Route 12. Mr. Fletcher is checking into a better place for the boys to play ball inasmuch as a great deal of criticism has been made about those foul balls. Inasmuch as the volunteer lawnmowers were out of service at the time the beach committee needed them .funds have now been made available to purchase a lawn mower for the association. The sign committee will make up a sign for the new beach. Reports from swimmers indicate this beach is deep and signs will be posted to that affect.

You, as parents, are responsible for damage done by your children. Need we say more? The nominating committee will meet before the next meeting and have a list of suggested candidates for your consideration. It is hoped that arrangements can be made to have someone come to the next meeting and speak on the pros and cons of Incorporating. It seems as though it's the same, few doing ail the work while others sit back and reap the benefits. A suggestion was made that maybe we should incorporate and make everyone pay equally and be able to accomplish much more. So make sure you'll be^able to attend the next meeting and hear about the good and bad points about incorporating. ^ Buy A Ticket?
