One would be to catch a baseball game at Fenway Park in Boston. Another thing that is a little closer to home would be to spend a week- end watching movies at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). I would love to spend a few days watching movie. after movie and seeing the odd celebrity who is . there to promote a film. I think for a lot of people it's a chance to meet some of their favourite movie stars on the red car- pet, but all I'd want is to see the movies they are in. Hero worship isn'tbigonmylist. The old saying goes that you shouldn't meet your heroes because it will just be a big let down. I'd rather see my favourite actors and actresses "performing at their best and that's in their movies. On the other hand, I would like to pick the brain of a few of my favourite directors. I'd be really interested in writer/director Quentin Tarantino's favourite movies plus the process in which he writes his amazing screenplays. If I had to slake a decision over a baseball game at Fenway Park or go to '1'lirr' I would probably choose my Red Sox, but TIFF would be a close second: It would be great if I could go: to TIFFsomeday, and if I: do, I know it win be an amazing experience. crit Reid • SenMoirs 10 yeah qgo - $ept. 151,9 - The Lucknow Legion Branch 309 hosted the Zone C-1 fall convention.

Petersen.. ospices are good to know about Dear Editor, Individuals interested in expand- ing their knowledge of hospice pal- liative care are invited to take part in the fall training sessions begin- ning Sept. 28. : After the death of a close friend or family member, individuals often want to explore ways of helping others taking that journey. Huron Hospice Volunteer Service: wel- comes men and women who are willing to take the 30 hour approved training program which deals with topics ranging from cop- .ing with illness , to spirituality ver- sus religion to funeral customs and normal grieving symptoms. Hospice palliative care began in the medieval ages when travellers becoming ill were able to receive hospitality when they were journey- ing on pilgrimages throughout Europe. The modern version of pal- liative care was developed by Dame Cicely Saunders in the United Kingdom and the roots of Canadian hospice palliative care. . began in Winnipeg and Montreal. Here in Huron County, the -cleiite for a local palliative care movement began in communities such as sGoderich, Wingham, Clinton, Seaforth and Exeter in the 1980s by citizens and local family doctors. Although there are no residential hospice homes in Huron County Palliative Ci're services are provid- ed to indivic ti als in long term care facilities, . hospitals and in also in their own homes at no cost to the individuals.' . Over the past 20 years, the amal- gamation of these community groups has resulted in Huron Hospice Volunteer Service which. provides care to .four fifths of the county and the VON Palliative care which •offers services to • the Exeter/South. Huron- area. Training :of future - volunteers is an integral part of the hospice move ment in Canada. Huron_ Hospice recognizes that the average length of service by their volunteers is well over 10 years, whereas other volun- teer .organizations statistically lose . volunteers after a much briefer. association, often less than a year. However, the average age of their volunteers is increasing. As.a fully accredited hospice with the Ontario Hospice Association, the need for additionally trained and qualified persons. is always part of the yearly program that we provide to citizens of the county.
