Thank you!

Thanks to the caring residents of Coldstream the Town Hall meeting was an overwhelming success. The Kidston Elementary gym was full with enthusiastic residents, most of whom were urging Council to reject the proposed change of use of the high quality agricultural land.

Many agreed that some additional playing fields might be required but that should be discussed openly by the politicians and user groups with the rest of the taxpayers.

Thanks for the donations to help pay for the flyers and rental. Special thanks to Kidston Elementary Principal, Mr Harry Adam who went way beyond his duties in helping to set up the chairs as well as granting us use of the gym.

Remember the date, time and place of the next important meeting set by Council to discuss the issues. It will be on September 11th at 7:00 PM at the Coldstream Elementary gym. Your presence will be imperative to impress upon Council that we the taxpayers are jealously protecting our major industry: agriculture and the agricultural land.

We are inviting those who wish to become a member to sign up and those members whose membership lapsed to renew their membership. We intend to continue watching the performance of our elected officials locally as well as regionally.

Once again, thank you all.
