Delmar Baptist Church, long time supporter of community action and co-founder and member of the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council, has voted to remain at their present location. Part of the congregation wished to merge with the Oak Chapel Baptist Church at Clayton and Straub Rds. The vote to remain at Washington and Skinker was 152 to 118.
A spokesman for the church said that the vote to stay indicates a renewed interest on the part of the congregation to serve the community. There will be no curtailment of present activities, and more programs will be planned.
Delmar Baptist presently operates a pre-school for three and four year olds. A program involving parents of the children is being organized.
The Church also sponsors a boxing club and basketball league for area youth.
The classroom facilities at the Church are being considered for use by the over-crowded Hamilton Elementary School. At this time the superintendent of the Enright District says that the School Board would be unwilling to finance renovation and fireproofing of the building.
However, Delmar Baptist and the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council Education Committee are still interested in the project and are continuing to pursue other alternatives.
