Waste management at hospital discussed EXETER - The South Huron Hospital Auxiliary held its regular meeting Tuesday, November 15. After the meeting opened amoment of silence was observed in memory of Alma Godbolt. Leroy Edwards, department head of 'housekeeping' at South Huron Hos- pital, was guest speaker and discussed "Waste Management" within the hospital, which began in 1990 with recycling of office paper and card- board. In April of 1991 Blue Water Recycling began pickups. At present the hospital is recycling newspaper, shredded office paper, clear plastic bottles, clear glass, coloured glass, cans, plastic bags and wrap. Separation is done at the hospital and put in appropriate containers. Hospital management is very pleased with their relationship with Blue Wa- ter Recycling. There is an ongoing effort within the hospital to reduce, reuse and recy- cle, said Edwards. Pathalogical waste is frozen and trucked away for incineration. Edwards was thanked and presented with a gift. Marjorie Johns, Vera Armstrong and Vera Baechler attended the Hospi- tal Auxiliary Association of Ontario, often referred to as H.A.A.O. conven- tion in Toronto. Sessions were held at the Royal York and Toronto Con- vention Centre. They each gave a report of the workshops and discussion groups they attended. Mary Fisher, gift shop convener, reminded members to turn in tickets for the quilt. The draw will be made at the December meeting. Tickets are available from Auxiliary members and at the gift shop. Proceeds from Tag Day were $11,140.00 and from the Fall Rummage Sale $9,021.00. These two projects were a great success due to the organi- zation of the committees in charge, the hundreds of hours given by the many, many volunteers and the generous donations from the town and sur- rounding communities. Auxiliary meetings are held on the second Tuesday of the month in the Auxiliary room at the hospital at 1:30 p.m. New members and visitors are always welcome. A bake sale will be held prior to the Christmas meeting Tuesday, Decem- ber 13. Baked goods are to be at the hospital by 12 noon and the meeting will follow at 1:30 p.m. • �I�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�Z�I�Z�Z�Z�ZrI I'S 0-1 i Introducing our new...
