Bluewater Centre ad- ministrator Bill Gregg em- phatically stated that employees have not been given official notice by the ministry and that the closure of the centre has not been an- nounced. However, Gregg, said he arbitrarily chose the October 31 date to give employees a time framework to adjust to. While the centre has not of- ficially been closed, the closure is expected to be ef- fected within the calendar year. Community and Social Ser- vices deputy minister Robert McDonald met with parents and employees January 12 and suggested the center would close by the end of 1983. Gregg said the employees should be prepared for that. "The employees haven't been given notice and the closure hasn't been announc- ed yet," Gregg said Monday. "A general staff meeting was held last Wednesday and I suggested the target date of October 31 as a Closure date. It's my target date." Gregg explained that his reasoning behind the ar- bitrary selection of a target date was to give employees a form of reference and to alleviate some of the uncer- tainty of the situation. "I've arbitrarily selected that date because the employees need some date to work to," he said. "Deputy minister McDonald said the centre would close in the late fall of this year when he met with parents in January so they're aware. It's only a target date at this point and is not firm." The ministry has promised employees six months notice and Gregg expects that notification will be forthcom- ing in April or May. Since that meeting with staff a week ago, Gregg said the rumor mill has been active, official- ly citing his target date as the closure date for the centre. That, he said, has been unsettling for parents, residents and employees. Meanwhile, parents of children in the six regional centres for the developmen- tally handicapped have suc- ceeded in securing a meeting with Community and Social Services Minister Frank Drea. But, the group of con- cerned parents formed March 12, are now demanding that Premier William Davis meet with them and place a moratorium on the closing of the six regional centres. The parent committee is now seeking a meeting with Davis to heat the govern- ment's justification for clos- ing the centres over the next five years and mov' : man of the residents into com- munity group homes. Committee chairman B.M. Bhuta of Pickering said the parents are seeking a tem- porary moratorium on the ministry's five-year plan. Bhuta explained that parents are not necessarily opposed to the government's plan, but they want the government to extend the courtesy of ex- plaining the procedure before it is implemented. The parents still face con- cerns that many residents will not be able to function in group home settings and there is also the concern that the support services, such as group homes, will not be suf- ficiently in place when cen- ' tres are closed. In such cases, parents fear their children will simply be transferred to larger institutions. Gregg also cautioned that Drea promised that residents would not be moved until ade- quate support services were in place in the community. Those services would include placement and daycare for all residents. Gregg said those services may not be ready un- til November or December.

Draw prizes were won by Margaret Hayter, Reva Moore, Charles Reid and Joan Beierling. There was a large atten- dance of members and their guests at Virna Church on Sunday for the Easter ser- vice. Special music by the Varna Singers and by the Uke Singers, a group of teen -aged girls, was enjoyed. Rev. Brown's sermon was "Light and Life to All He Brings." The Varna Singers will be heard again at the U.C.W. thankoffering meeting this Thursday night at 8 p.m. Gwyn Whilsmith is the speaker. Cancer campaign kits will be distributed at this meeting. If you can help, please pick one up. On Monday, April 11 the U.C.W. Presbyterial's Special Event is being held in North Street in Goderich. There is always a very rewarding pro- gram at this evening event. I see by Clinton Early Files that Varna and Brucefield were considering installing street lights twenty-five years ago, and the township decid- ed to pay 50 percent of the cost. At the same time Gor- don Hill was campaigning among farmers in the pro- vince for one organization to represent their interests. Marion and Jamie Tippet were home with the Dowsons for Easter. Joining them for dinner on Sunday at Margaret's were Tom and Barb Consitt and family. YOUTH BOWLING Little Angels League Champsposers Hol Shots Blazers Strikers Fireballs Playoff Champs It.
