T -A photo Free Friday nigh for sports o Minor sports organizations which rent the South Huron rec centre hall will be given an additional Friday night rental for free. However, the word free may be somewhat misleading in the motion approved by the board at their regular meeting, Wednesday. The final sentence in the motion calls for a minimum rental charge of $50 per night to cover clean-up costs. The offer will be advanced to all minor sports organiza- tions who utilize the rec board's facilities for their regular programs and also rent the hall for fund-raising purposes. The "free" Friday night is for the period from January through June when there are few other bookings for the hall. The offer is on a first-come, first-served basis and is in- tended to help the groups stage fund-raising events to . assist in their programs. On the recommendation of the facilities committee, the board will hire outside staff on a part-time basff3'to super- vise non -fundraising events at the centre. Volunteers supervise fund- raising events. The suggested wage rate for the part-time staffer is, $5 per hour. It was noted there are already 11 wedding recep- tions booked at the hall for the • coming _months. The committee has been discussing the location of the Exeter Lioness adventure playground with the service club and have agreed to have it installed in the area south of the rec centre and west of the softball diamond. Assistant facilities manager Cam Stewardson is to do the work with the ser- vice club on the project which will be staged over a period of time. Carolyn Merner presented the finance committee report and noted that revenue was down about three precent over the same period from -last year, while expenses were up about one percent --for., a "turnaround of about four percent: t' ; r--- '• .. She said the complex, con– cession and bar sales"elln- Katimavik program umbia where the Katimavikers will be living'at an alternativeeducation farm project on the mountain. This is the group leader's first exposure to Katimavik, too. Stanley is originally from New Brunswick and studied photography at Ryerson in Toronto. She said she had never been farther west than Toronto, before Katimavik. Stanley said she was happy that the emphasis of Katimavik shifted more towards community service. In the past most Katimavik postings have been in remote areas in the north. She said the emphasis in hiring group leaders had been on brawny, outdoors types, but has not shifted to those with community involvement skills. The group will be living at 313 Carling Street while in Ex- eter, but Stanley noted the group also likes to- billet members in community homes, to increase the par- ticipants involvement in the town. "The idea is that they get to know people in the communi- ty", Stanley said. "but it's also not to be a holiday." She noted the Katimavikers are expected to help around the home or farm of a, billeting family. It is unusual for Katimavik to be involved in a small southern. Ontario community and urban centres, such as London. She said that this reflects the new community approach of Katimavik. The program "has something to give a larger community and to the kids -- they're not all going to get jobs using a chain saw and building log cabins," Stanley said. The purpose of Thursday's meeting was to anticipate problems of the program, plan work and outline respon- sibilities of the groups involved. The seminar would orient supervisors to the special pro- blems of working with volunteers Kennaley said, noting that the motivation of Katimavikers was a special case too. But Kennaley was en- thusiastic about\the program. "I'm kicking myself for not getting involved in the Katimavik program when I had the chance," he added. I Continued from front page of cooking and home chores, while three each would be spending most of their time with one of the three sponsor- ing groups. Basically, the majority of their work in Exeter will be with a single sponsor, but the workers will be available to assist major projects a group may be doing. One of the aims of a Katimavik project is that it not take work away from peo- ple in the community. Kennaley noted that the authority usually has two part time workers taking care of over 90 kilometers of ski trails. Care on the trails is only superficial Kenna ley said and he is hoping the Katimavikers will be able to upgrade the quality of the trails. Farquhar noted• 'the workers will be doing maintenance that the town staff would not have time to do. Kennaley noted the authori- tyhadbeenhitashardbythe economy as everyone else and the authority would be looking at cutting back or dropping programs without the Katimavik workers. Group leader Robin Stanley said she looks at the program as a kind of alternate educa- tion for Canadian youth about Canada. Part of the purpose of Thursday's meeting was to try and resolve some Katimavik's past 'problems. Stanley said a boring and tedious job can have more meaning for a worker if its purposle is explained A tedious job planting trees can be more meaningful if the worker knows the larger pur- pose of the needs of wind- breaks and conservation. Stanley said she thought the problems of learning one of Canada's second languages was "almost insurmoun- table". She said she heard from other supervisors that it was not too big a problem, mixing French and English speaking workers in English or totally French communities. She noted the Exeter group will be travelling to the total- - ly French community or Roberval in northern Quebec. The variety ' of education will also be increased at Har- dy Mountain in British Col-, stituted the main areas where revenue was down, while utility costs were the prime area where expenses had been increasing.
