YEW is here
It looks like a tremendous summer
upcoming for eV/0y age group of Goderich
youth. There should be few complaints
from residents 'this year concerning th'e,,
summer'. program being offered in this
'resort .town and it is our sincere hope .that
the activities for the young will prove
most successful.
This summer, ther4 will be organized
ebaLtoitth gixis and boys at various ,
„ age level. And of coil -6670'611M
.and swir.nrriing . program at JUdith.
GoOderham Park will be second to none'
in the area under the guidance of lively
Betty Bedard.
But to bolster these programs this
summer will be a Youth Environment
Workshop to be located at the corner of
east and Cambria. (That's right, the
premises of last summer's teen centre.)
The Youth Environment Workshop is
staffed by two vivacious young women
new to Goderich -, Barbara Pickett arid -
Susie Turnbull 7- who are working for the
Ontario Department of. Youth and
Education in co-operation with. the
Goderich Recreation - and Community
Centre Board.
These., gals are .professionals who are
drawing up 41 -fully structured program for
'the youth of Goderich. And ,YEW is not
to be confused in any way with a drop-in
centre or a coffee house.
The program at YEW is designed for
kids from 15 to 20 and will co-ordinate
such activities, as drama, art, hobbies,
music, crafts etc. Hopefully there will be
something for evecy,o.ne-at-Y,E)N.wtheL,
"eriftre-
comt1infty to benefit.
One eNciting way in which YEW will
be of service to tie adult population of
Goderich. is through its 'Youth
Employment Program. Folks vill need
only to give YEW a call if they have a
fence to paint or a lawn to be mowed or
plants to be watered while on vacation.
YEW will send a capable and willing
young person to the home to complete
te task as ordered, the' homeowner of
course,, required to pay the ensuingJiiI
for the finished job.
The sOmmer-ahead looks great. We,
promise our full'suPport and co-operation
to the guys and gals wh.o will make these
thoughtful programs work for tis'.

Why. NI*? That question has been voiced ' •
this week to the degree that I hoped it
" would, he. Many of you .have come to me
and asked that question and I know that
many of you are asking each other.
The answer is quit ple: The NDP is the
nly political party ,wg .the policies for a
just government in.Ontario: It is the only
party promoting a truly democratic society
where all men are accepted as men of equal
wotth. It is the party whose policies directly
reflect the wistiesof out people. ,
The NDP is people... People Concerned with
real problems and people with solid answers to solve those problems.
I have takenW standas' the candidate for the NDP knOwirig full well the:obstacles
before me.... Knowing loll well that many of the citizens in Huron have yet to learn the
true meaning and worttLat_the New Democratic Party,
It is with this feeling that I accept▪ the challenge ofpresenting to the citizens of Huron a
sound policy for government in Ontario: It is With -this feeling that I will go outto you in
the coming months to acquaint you with NDP.
