HERB TRAPNELL on SUNDAY, OCT. 3 from 2 — 5 Please no gifts as Mrs. Trapnell is a patient, in the Nursing' Home. 40,10.04WAMergeOMMON.Ai A proposal to have Huron County. establish an annual grant of up to $1,000, on a matched dollar for ,dollar basis, as an incentive to municipalities to form and operate co-operative area Recreation Boards was 'defeated on Friday by tine council. The vote shoWed 33 opposed and only 20 favoring the motion. County Council did support•the theory of forming such area boards to facilitate "better co- operation between municipalities and to encourage better utilization of facilities and services. The Clinton Town Council had first asked Huron County Council to investigate the financing of, recreation services within the County in January of 1974. Since that time, the County Development Officer, Spence Cummings, in co-operation with representatives from the Ministry of-Ctiltdre and Recreation and several of the Recreation Directors from municipalities within Huron County, have worked to assess and evaluate the current status quo within the County. In September ,of 1975 'this group submitted a report to County Council which investi- gated the areas of existing facilities, facility uses, a break- wn the recreation financing in the County, population statistics, the planning piocess for recreation in the County, the extent of co-operation in planning and action that exists at present, future individual plans of municipalities and the attitudes of both elected and municipally appointed officials to the question. As a result of that study, the committee recommended to council that Huron become more involved in the assessment, planning, development and support of recreation in the County. They 'also suggested that neighboring municipalities , be Fourteen members' enjoyed a pot luck supper at the Club House on Tuesday evening. In place of bowling after three tables played euchre. All ladies are reminded that on Monday afternoon at 2 p.m. there will be a meeting for the ladies at the Club House. As many members as possible are urged to attend. encouraged to develop methods of co-operation in the delivery of recreation services and .education in changing trend's in the philosophy of leisure. It was also' suggested that equitable and fair system for cost sharing and decision making among municipalities that ..are sharing programs and facilities be developed, using an appropriate formula system. County Council accepted that report, as presented, and asked the Development ' Committee to research the topic further and to come back with suggestions on how those recommendations might be carried out. The Developme, Committee then formed an' internal Recreation Study Committee to deal with the issue, composed of three members from the Development Committee, • the County Development Officer and two • Recreation Directors from within the County. This subcommittee, together with 'the Development Committee, held three meetings, at Exeter, Clinton and Wingham, for local councils and recreation 'committees. A questionnaire, was completed at the meetings and. based on the results the committee presented Friday's recommendations to County council. Development Committee chairman Frank Cook (Deputy Reeve of Clinton) told the council that he did not believe the grant, which could reach a maximum of' only $26,000, would solve the problem. "But it could serve as a carrot, an encouragement, to the municipalities to get together in local boards." Goderich Deputy Reeve B ill Clifford asked just what the criteria for receiving a grant would be, pointing au+ that Goderich has ' work( , in co-operation with Colborne Goderich Townships for some' time. St. Mary's tournament was cancelled lastSunday due to the inclement weather.

He weitt-on to point out "that formation of the area boards would in no way effect the existing recreation committees in the municipalities. Those committees would continue to operate as always. Finlay MaeDonald; Deputy 'Reeve of Ashfield told the meeting that in his opinion this is a time of restraint and th' County was "into too ' many things already. We don't need to go into Recreation as well." , As the final vote on the recommendation reflects, number of the councils were willing to endorse tile proposal to encourage the area boards, but not to sweeten the pot with any financial assistance. IVIcKillop Reeve Allan Campbell ' suggested that at present a great deal of voluntary assistance goes into operating the community arenas across the county, especially ,the smaller ones,' and told council that introducing more grants might well serve to destroy this "home effort and local philosophy." Hensall Reeve John Ba ker said that in his village there was a real need for area recreation. "Even if this proposal is defeated, I want io sit down with the surrounding townships and talk about area recreation." Noting that council seemed unwilling to put up the n ecessary funds to introduce the grant system Harold Lobb, Reeve of Clinton, even suggested that the• County consider starting their own lottery to raise the necessary funds, BENEFIT DANCE MR. & MRS.
