Some readers of this
column may already be
familiar with the existence of
the Huron Volunteer Bureau
located in .the hall of the
Ontario Street United Church
- however there may be
others who need to be in-
troduced.
It is just what its name
denotes - a centre for
organizing the agencies who
need vclunteers and placing
those same volunteers where
their talents can be best
utilized.
Since its opening on
January 3 of this year, the
Bureau has assisted in the
recruitment and screening of
volunteers for Nursing
Honies such as Huronview in
Clinton, Braemore Manor in
Exeter and Maitland Manor
in Goderich. These volunteers
work with the residents and
staff in various recreational
programs, including ' crafts,
physical exercise, visiting
and entertainment.
Three names to remember
when reading about the
Volunteer Bureau are Mary
Ann , Kowbuz Co-ordinator,
Reg. Thompson Assistant Co-
ordinator and Cathy Evans"
secretary. They would like to
extend a warm invitation to
anyone wishing to provide a
service to the community.
Anyone wishing to help, with
or without a special skill,
please give any of the above a
call at 482-3037.
The following quotation by
the late Dr. Albert Schweitzer
is very fitting to the work of
this organization: "One thing
I know: the only ones among
you who will he really happy
are those who will have
sought and found how to
serve."
Charlie Brown seeks a little psychiatric help from Lucy here in the Holmesicille School
production of Peanuts. Brown, played by Peter Bornath, paid his nickel and wants some
advice from Lucy, played by Barb Forbes. The play is an hour and a half long and thus
two sets of actors were pressed into service to allow the production to go along smoothly.
The play will be staged April 19 and 20 and tickets must be purchased prior to opening
night and can be bought at the school or from a student. (staff -photo)
