  Hi everyone,

  =20

  The Provincial Government has just cancelled Two Rivers Gallery's =
previously awarded $20,000 grant from gaming funds. I am assuming that =
this will also apply to the $20,000 grant that they awarded us for 2011.

  =20

  The Gallery will need to make cuts to adjust to this.

  The Friends of the North Vancouver Museum & Archives Society has just =
been notified that its application for Direct Access funding has been =
denied. The grant had been requested for a summer day camp program at =
the Museum. Gaming funds have supported this popular annual program for =
at least a decade.

  =20

  The (somewhat) good news is that the total amount of our request was =
not large. The bad news is that the money has already been spent to pay =
the wages of a university student who ran the program this summer. This =
leaves our Friends Society without money in the bank to pay for anything =
else for the rest of the year.
