"The idea of the games is to get seniors participating and being active.' said Exeter recreation director Lynn Farquhar of the 20 winners in the Senior Games competition. The 55 -plus athletes competed in slims such as: carpet bowling, cribbage, euchre, crokinole, shuffleboard, darts, and bridge held at different locations throughout Exeter. The winners of each are travelling to Strathroy June 20-21 to compete in regional games which include Middlesex and Perth county players. Ap- proximately 800 to 1,000 representatives will be attending. Farquhar says she hopes the seniors will continue to participate in the various events after the completion of the formal games. Unfortunately some events, the triathalon, swimming, walking. and ten- nis, had no entrants. Farquhar explains that participation is open for any- one who is interested in coming out. She would like to see all the events tilled next year. The number of participants has already doubled since last year. Farqu- har attributes this to the involvement from seniors at Riverview Estates "Actifest", the provincial level games held every two years, will he host- ed by Sudbury later on this summer. Dart players, Harry Puttock and Ray Warner, who were omitted from last week's list of winners, will also be advancing to Strathroy. McCann now heads Hawks executive EXETER - With hopes for a bet- ter '94-95 season ahead, the Exeter Hawks has elected a new execu- tive. Tom McCann, the new president of the team's executive said the an- nual meeting last Wednesday eve- ning wasn't well attended - 10 peo- ple - but much was accomplished. All top executive positions were filled, and seven of the 10 directors positions are filled. Anyone inter- ested in being director is welcome to give McCann a call, he said. First and second vice presidents of the team this year are Wayne Dickins and Bill Farquhar. Secre- tary and treasurer positions were filled by Sharon Lynn and Dan Meidinger. Directors include Kar- en Dickins, Larry Lynn, Ken Du- rand, Laurie Lavier, Al Lavier, Les Gardiner, and Derek Schwartzen- truber. Andy McIntyre will be serving as past president. One of the first duties for the new executive will be to decide who will coach and manage the Junior D team next year. Applica- tions were being received up to Saturday. "We will hopefully be making the decision by the end of May," said McCann. Even though the team advertised the positions, it doesn't mean coach and general manager George Pratt is out of a job. McCann said Pratt has applied for one of the posi- tions, and the executive will be in- cluding him while making their de- cision. The Hawks are also broke, hav- ing run up another deficit over the course of the season. Fundraising over the summer will play an im- portant part of putting the team's fi- nances back in order before the season opens. "I don't remember the last time the Hawks didn't start a season with a deficit," said McCann. Overall, the team is looking ahead to a better perforniance next season. A disappointingly early elimination in the playoffs was likely linked to the fact that the team lost man; veterans last sea- son, and went to the ice with 11 new players - not that new talent isn't seen as important. McCann said the Hawks arc hoping to re- cruit a few top graduates from the Midget league this fall.
