Branch, Ontario Genealogy Society Donna Nicholson intro- duced the speaker for the evening. Ron Makin of Richmond Hill, spoke about United Empire Loyal- ists. Ron began by giving a general picture of the Loyalists. He said the Loyalists were by no means all British but were colonists opposed to the Revolution which began at Lexington Green in 1775 and ended in 1781. Any colonist known to be opposed to the Revolution was forced off his land by the Rebels and often harassed, tortured or The speaker delighted his audi- ence with his enthusiasm, showed books which had helped him in his own research.

Arena board increases fees for Hockey School The Seaforth arena board has increased the ice fees for the Dave McLlwain Hockey School against the requests of its organizers. Seaforth native Dave McLlwain, NHL hockey player, and Graham Nesbitt, arena manager, made a presentation to the Seaforth and District Community Centres Man- agement Committee on May 19 and suggested the Dave McLlwain Hockey School be eliminated from the operations of the facility and the budget, and be treated as a regular renter of ice time and halls. McLlwain and Nesbitt suggested the ice time rate for summer hockey school be set at 108 per cent of the prime rate (or $85 per hour. The 1994-95 prime ice rate is $81 per hour. Minor sports rate is $60.75 per hour). The arena manager pres- ented an information sheet stating the facility used $690 more hydro during the month the hockey school operated last year than the arena used in February of this year. The 1994 arena budget contained a provision for an ice rental rate of $95 per hour plus a share of the hockey school profit up to $2,000. McLlwain and Nesbitt left the meeting and the Board went into Committee of the Whole at 9 p.m. and reconvened at 9:30 p.m. The board passed a motion stating "the Dave McLlwain Hockey School be treated as any other leasor and the summer ice rental rate (or hockey school rate) be set at $100 per hour, and all other reference and obligations concern- ing the Dave McLlwain Hockey School be deleted from the budget." McLlwain and Nesbitt again left the meeting to consider the Board's offer. They retumed at 10:40 p.m. and offered the Board $85 per hour for summer ice and in addition offered to make a donation to the Board of $1,440, provided a receipt was issued. The matter was dis- cussed at length. McLlwain and Nesbitt finally agreed to pay $100 per hour for summer ice.
