Mrs. Juliette Denomme is presently visiting with her daughter and son-in-law, Yvonne and Michael Hart- man in Montreal. Dennis and Meryl Even the word is overworked I wonder which is the more ovef'worked, the word volunteer' or the volunteers themselves. The word itself is so very overworked with hun- dreds of organizations asking for volunteer helpers or cash, which in itself is a form of volunteer work. And one suspects most volunteers are overworked too, because there is usually so much amt , Rumblings Miscellaneous –rato By ROB CHESTER for them to do and so few to go around. The concept and the word are overused and also abused. I'm leary of calls for volunteers from organizations and activities which appear to be able to afford to pay for their help.

Every j%ar the Conestoga College journalism students are asked to send some student volunteers, to man a press relations booth. This is to promote a festival which brings an es- timated $15 million into the area and shovels much of it into the pockets of beer corporations and sausage makers and people who sell funny hats and leather shorts. The organizers would only take about three students and the students would have to work about 10 hours a day for the week of the festival. The more details I heard of the scheme, it sounded less and less like volunteering for a good cause as an easy way for someone to get cheap labor at little expense or effort. A student couldn't contribute a few hours to the cause, he had to com- mit for the full stretch: to promote a money making festival to newspapers which would write about the events to sell more papers and attract more people to the festival next year. The only redeeming aspect of the festival is that area service clubs also had the perfect opportunity to raise funds for the other good work they do. But it is hard to remember that after paying a cover charge and full price for beer and meals at a festival tent. (On a cold, wet October evening.) I don't think there is anything wrong with that per se, it's just a matter of scope. The bigger a festival (or organization) gets, the more opportunity for people to scrape a little profit off the top at the expense of those who the festival is to benefit. and at the expense of the volunteer who is honestly out to help someone in need. On the smaller level, the tradition of volunteer is the only way for a group to get something done in these days of high costs. Zurich minor hockey feeshaveclimbed from $35 to $50 or $60 to pay for increased ice time and yearly expenses. The minor athletic association's income is based on the bean festival and the registration fees. As treasurer Robert Westlake reported to the ZMAA annual meeting, only about $3,500 is raised at the bean featival and over $9,000 is spent on ice time alone. Its easy to see the need for volunteers. If players were to pay for their coaching and manag- ing staff. the fees would be astronomical. For some, with several kids playing hockey. it would be a matter of financial survival to become a volunteer to help keep the fees as low as possible. I for one saw a lot of good minor hockey last season (and a lot of good senior hockey too they have to come up the ranks somewhere) and most of it is due to all those who volunteered to help out. Our individual survival in our modern money - oriented society depends on working for a living, but a job always seems more satisfying when you know all you'll get out of it is the satisfaction.
