California Knockdown Ceilings Wednesday, June 14, 2017 • Signal Star 35 • 2019 Ontario Heritage Conference 30th Anniversary for Law Enforcement Torch Run Request for conference to be hosted by Goderich Kathleen Smith Goderich Signal Star It was proposed at last week's Town Council meet- ing that the 2019 Ontario Heritage Conference should be hosted in Goderich. Bill Menzel spoke to Council last week on behalf of the Municipal and Marine Heritage Committee (MMHC), suggesting that Goderich host the Conference. The Ontario Heritage Con- ference promotes the herit- age features of the town that is hosting that particular year. "The Ontario Heritage Conference is one that hap- pens on a yearly basis. This year it is in Ottawa, next year will be in Soult Saint Marie. It is a conference for those in Ontario who are interested in heritage, and usually somewhere between 200 and 25() attend the confer- ence. rlhe idea is to promote the heritage features of the towns and districts that the conference is in," said Hill Menzel. According to Menzel, the Heritage Trust would develop the program for the 2019 Conference, but would need the Council's support and approval for the Conference to be in Goderich. In addition, the MMFIC and Town Council would work with and assist the Her, itage Trust develop:an appropriate program, that would touch upon heritage features for Goderich and surrounding areas for the Conference. • A motion was passed by Council to approve the request to support the Municipal and Marine Herit- age Committee with plan- ning for the 2019 Conference. The request from the • MMHC for $2500 to help fund the program was deferred until next years budget, seeing as the confer- ence will not occur until 2019. (HURON COUNTY, ON) - The Ontario Law Enforce- ment Torch celebrated its 30th Anniversary this year and Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) extended a special invita- tion to everyone join and celebrate the significant milestone. Special Olympians, police officers, familymem- bers, friends and commu- nity supporters from alt over Iluron County ran, walked, strolled together on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 in an effort to promote aware- ness and raise funds for Special Olympics Ontario. "The support we have seen from our local towns and villages has been just phenomenal. This event is so much more than just a run. Knowing our athletes are accepted and included is so important," said Huron OPP Torch Run Coordina- tor, Sergeant Russ Newsbitt. "I'm very proud to be a champion of this amazing event and organization." The Ontario Law Enforce- ment Torch run is a commu- nity- based, province -wide event that sees the "Flame of Hope" carried across Ontario by members of law enforce- ment agencies throughout the province.
