Among the recipients will be Joseph
Hogan, Exeter, nominated by the
Huron Historical Society for his
12 -year service with that group, and
Eileen M. Rannie, Hensall,
nominated by the village for a 15 -year
service award.
"These volunteers are among more
than 3,1000 Ontarians who will receive
awards this year," Dr. Munro said.
"It's the caring and devotion of these
volunteers and the organizations they
represent that make our communities
better places for all of us."
The Owen Sound ceremony is one
of 20 to be held across the province
throughout April and May in continu-
ing recognition of Ontario's large and
sometimes overlooked network of
dedicated volunteers.
The volunteers will be awarded
trillium -shaped bronze, silver and
goldtone lapel pins and certificates
acknowledging five, 10 or 15 and more
years of service with non-profit
organizations. They will also receive
First -Day Covers of a new Canada
Post stamp commemorating the work
of volunteers across the country.
The ceremony will honour
volunteers working fora broad spec-
trum of Local non-profit organizations
within the scope of the mandate of the
Ministry of Citizenship and Culture.
This includes arts groups, heritage
conservation agencies, public
libraries, community information
services, multicultural groups,
ethnocultural groups, citizenship ser-
vices, and programs by and for
Native people.
The Minister said, "The activities
of these volunteers reach all
segments of society and touch all of
our lives. 'Their work reflects the
quality of life and the very character
of the communities we live in."
Joanna Miller, president of the On-
tario Association of Volunteer
Bureaux and Centres said,. "The
awards ceremonies highlight the
celebration of yolunteer Week and
enhance the positive image of volun-
tarism. I join with the ministry in
honoring this most important sector
of Ontario volunteers.
Volunteer Week, held April 26 to
May 2 this year, is intended to
celebrate the work of volunteer's
across the province and encourage
more involvement in the future.
"The Volunteer Service Awards en-
courage Ontarians in many walks of
life to direct their enef-gies and
diverse talents towards developing
the potential of our communities to
the fullest," Dr. Munro said.
"By recognizing the volunteer
achievements of the past, we are look-
ing to the challenge of the future -- the
challenge tofoster a spirit of mutual
respect and understanding among all
our citizens."

"We have distrubted our free gar-
bage bags provided by Sunoco Inc,
and other materials to close to 2,500
participating groups across the pro-
vince," states Rick Morgan, ex-
ecutive vice-president of the Ontario
Federation of Anglers & Hunters.
Projects are taking place
throughout Ontario. Some involve just
a few people as they clean-up a va-
cant lot or neighbourhood park while
other projects involve thousands of
people in total community -wide -wide tY clean-
up blitzes.
Area groups planning to join in the
campaign include Exeter Public
School, Usborne Central School, the
Claybird Gun Club, Lucan's St.
Patricks School, Zurich Public School
and the Hensall Cubs, Scouts, Ven-
turers and Beavers.
According to the Ontario Federa-
tion of Anglers & Hunters, the Pitch -
In campaign is
only a start. "It helps
to build awareness of the need to keep
the environment clean and not to drop
your garbage," states the Federa-
tion's Executive vice president, Rick
Morgan.
Picking up litter is an educational
experience. "After you've spent an
hour, or even a day, cleaning up you
quickly realize that if everyone
disposed of their litter improperly,
this world would be a terrible mess,"
adds Morgan, who emphasized that
"the only solution is for people to have
greater respect for their surroundings
and not to litter in the first place."
Asked if 1987 was, perhaps, the last
year for what has become an annual
campaign, Morgan responded that
this would probably not be the case.
"This is an on-going battle. I expect
we will need to continue for many.
years to come."
Pitch -In '87 is sponsored by the On-
tario Federation of Anglers & Hunters
and Sunoco, Inc., a Suncor Company
and the campaign is endorsed and
supported by the Ontario Ministry of
Environment.
