     Whoops, did I forget money!!! This year we need $115,000 in gift and kind. 
     
     Approximately $40,000 has been committed under the Federal Provincial 
     
     Infrastructure Program by the Provincial Government, Macphail Foundation and 
     
     Macphail Woods prdject. If you can help us out on any of the above or 
     
     implement a project that could help us reach this goal, please contact Fred 
     
     Horne at 902—675-4791 (e—mail: burkhorn@isn.net) or Gary Schneider 902-583— 
     
     3068 (e—mail: garyschneider®pei.sympatico.ca) 
     
    

    
     Donations should be made payable to Sir Andrew Macphail Foundation and 
     
     be sent to Macphail Homestead, Vernon Bridge RRl, Orwell, PEI COA 2E0 along 
     
     with a memo that it is to be used for the Natural History Centre. ISLAND TEL 
     
     - is “first past the post” among our potential corporate supporters. We thank 
     
     Island Tel for donating and we don't mind if you say thank you too, next year 
     
     is not that far away! The closing of the Bird’s Eye Nature Store was a great 
     
     loss to naturalists on the Island but owner Tanya Craig’s very generous 
     
     donation of nature books, shelving displays, feeders and supplies, and office 
     
     materials gave us a great start!
