Lifeguards still
have concern
about Gibbs' beach
GRAND BEND - The beach pa-
trol in this resort village continues
to show its concern about swim-
mers off Archie Gibbs' beach.
"They are very concerned, they'd
like to see action now," said coun-
cillor Bill Uniac.
The beach patrol sent a letter to
Grand Bend council, saying they
made four rescues in three days,
three which were off Gibbs' beach.
Lifeguards just happened to be in
that area.
Uniac suggested a lifeguard stand
be set up at the south end of the vil-
lagq s main portion of the beach.
Tbe problem however, according
to reeve Bruce Woodley is that
there are not enough qualified life-
guards for the village to hire on a
part-time basis.
"I'm really concerned about it. If
they had not had been there, there
might have been a double drown-
ing," said Uniac.
Clerk -treasurer Paul Turnbull
said Gibbs has been notified and
asked to have a lifeguard on his
beach.
"He's got signs telling them not to
swim by the pier," said Turnbull.

Turnbull and councillor Dennis
Snider said it will be quite costly to
have lifeguards in the future.
"Next year you may have to
choose between garbage collection
and a beach patrol," said Snider.
