Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form 10-SB filed on April 12, 2007 and Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 filed on April 16, 2007
File No: 0-28978
Dear Ms. Hardy:
We are in receipt of your correspondence dated May 23, 2007 with respect to the above referenced filings. For your review, we have filed a copy of an amended Form 10-SB and Form 10-KSB. These documents have been marked to indicate where appropriate changes have been made.
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
| 1. | The cover page of the Form 10-KSB has been reconciled with the facing sheet of the Amended Form 10-SB. |
Item 1. Description of Business
Company History- page 1
| 2. | Disclosure of the company’s former name and the date of the name change have been provided. |
| 3. | An Administrative Hearing was scheduled to determine whether a revocation of the original registration was warranted based on the extended period of time without filing of financial information. During a conference call between the Administrative Hearing Judge, SEC Compliance Attorneys, AFGP consultant Richard Greene and Daniel Hefner, as CEO of AFGP, it was determined that the best course of action for investors in AFGP would be to allow a voluntary revocation to occur, as opposed to the time and distraction |
| of the Hearing which would result in the requirement to file each individual quarterly and annual filing with each subject to comment from the SEC. Since no filing had been made since 1998, this would entail filing more than Thirty (30) 10KSB and 10QSB reports. With the Administrative Hearing Judge going on record that the voluntary revocation would carry no negative impact on a future registration, AFGP consented to the voluntary revocation. The more clearly stated format of the Form 10SB gave the investors a detailed explanation of the companies’ current and historical financial picture. |
| 4. | As a supplement, there were no known consequences for not advising the transfer agent about the 3:1 forward split of the company’s common stock. |
| 5. | We have revised both the Form 10-KSB and Form 10-SB to indicate that there were 884 shareholders of record at the time of William Amour’s passing and that they remained loyal to the success of the company. The Company ceased operations in January 2000, however, management continued to search for investors to be able to restart production. |
| 6. | The identities of the parties who were engaged in several months of discussions and negotiations culminating in the merger of American Leisure Products, Inc. and Amour Fiber Core, Inc. has been provided. |

| 8. | AFC and ALP have been defined in the document when first used. |
Amour Fiber Core, Inc.

| 10. | A cross reference to “Plan of Operation” for Amour Fiber Core, Inc. and American Leisure Products, Inc. has been provided. Similar cross references have also been included in the sections “Company and Business Overview” and “Future Growth Strategy” if applicable. |
Company and Business Overview page 5
| 11. | Disclosure indicating we are not a development stage company and the current status of operations has been provided. |
| 12. | Clarification between the developed proprietary technology and our exclusive rights to two (2) patents under the licensing agreement has been provided. |

Regulatory Mandates

Item 18a. Controls and Procedures, page 35
| 24. | We have noted that there has not been a material weakness in internal controls due to the mitigating steps that management has taken to use outside consultants.
