Membership information was sent to municipalities and conservation organizations - employees, also technicians. It was suggested the municipalities and conservationists may participate as honorary members, but some have sent in checks to become full members. Every munici- pality in Ontario Province has someone in charge of water issues. If these were members, they could attend and find out information first hand - GOOD IDEA? The meeting adjourned with a great deal of informat ion f loat ing through everyone’s head. They hurried to freshen up for the an- ticipated trip to the Vineyard Estates Winery for a tour and dinner! Upon arrival, they were greeted by the winery hostess and escorted down- stairs to the facilities where the wines are made. Knowledgeable workers explained the processes for creating the various wines and provided samples to onlookers. Sub- sequently, they went into the dining room lined with casks of wine and lit by candle- light for an evening to remember. Good-byes were said, as Marcel and Carol reluctantly departed Niagara Falls on Sunday, glad to be returning home, but a little sad to leave such a beautiful place and the friendly people they had met and now consider friends. First impressions usually are correct, and thus they were - Marcel and Carol both admitted, theirs of the Ontario Ground Water Association Convention and Exposition were positive despite the moderately-sized show, the membership’s genuine enthusiasm and commitment to a SUSTAINABLE GROUNDWATER SUPPLY was contagious! Quite like a large extended family, the members, through their many productive conversations about their future, showed their willingness to do their best individually and to work cooperatively to ensure sustainability.
