FUNDING DISAPPOINTMENT

We mentioned awhile ago that the Fairview Aircraft Restoration Society (FARS) had applied for funding under the Community Initiatives Program (CIP), a Project-Based Grant program from the Alberta Government.  Well, I'm sorry to report that we were turned down, this time around.  We can re-apply by the end of May - so the plan is to find out what went wrong and try again. There seems to be a lot of  groups looking for a share of the same small pot of money these days! 

Money to help finance the project is becoming more important every day as we get further into the FNJE restoration so if you have any suggestions for finding funding, donations or sponsors please contact us.  Your help will be greatly appreciated.
