Burnt River United Church is starting a fund-raising campaign to help with the cost of installing a new galvanized roof this coming fall.  This is an  immediate necessity since the 16 yr old shingles have not held particularly on the south side.  The goal would be $7000 for a complete roof or $3500 for half a roof.  To donate, contact June Hunter at 454-8045 or 1653.
