Leadership skills offered at Walkerton Recreation Director Dick Car- michael and Hanover Recreation Director Mike Dunlop, Netzke began organizing the conference back in January. She started by having each recreation director in the Lake' Huron Zone send out a survey to all the non- profit organizations in their respective areas. The topics to be covered at the con- ference are based on the responses received from this survey. These topics include the followiing: "Leading and Managing the Organization" by Jill MacMillan,"Consulting Company, Toronto; •`.`Fund-raising" by Nancy Biggar, , Ministry 'of Citizenship and Culture, Lon• don; "Finding and Keeping Volunteers" by Kathy Wiele, Lifetime Consulting Inc., Coll- ingwood; "Communication Skills" by' Sylvia Balfour, You Can Workshops Inc., Cambridge; "Liability and the Volunteer Executive". by Brian Linley, Reichenbach and Linley; Walkerton; "Motivation" by Neville Clark, Director of Industrial Rela- tions, .Mississauga Hydro; ' "Budget, Preparation and Fiscal, Management" by Bob Wilkinson, accountant. Hanover: By Joanne Buchanan Are you a member of a non-profit group who would like to learn more about fund- raising, leadership and organizational skills? If so, you may be interested in the 1985 Volunteer Executive Conference entitled "The Important Business of Running Your Non -Profit Organization'. This conference is being hosted by the Lake Huron • Zone Recreationists' Associa- tion at the Walkerton District Secondary School onSaturday, September 28 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. A fee of $20 includes lunch. The conference is open to all volunteer ex- ecutive members of non-profit • organiza- tions — ranging from sports and arts groups to service clubs and fraternities — in Grey, Bruce, Huron, Perth and North Wellington Counties. The conference was. originally conceived by Goderich Recreation Director Jane Net- zke in reponse to, requests from volunteer executive members in that town. "They (the executive members) wanted more training in running their groups so we organized some small workshops for them," says Netzke. Following these local workshops, Netzke approached the Lake Huron Zone Associa- tion with the idea that executive members in other communities might be interested in such training as well. The 40 -member Association, which consists of;recreation personnel in the Lake Huron area, gave Net- zke the go-ahead to plan a day -long centrally -located conference. With the aid of a Ministry of Tourism and Recreation grant and the assistance of conference OHRIS 'MP. —Council has given ap- priaval i> Prij ,pie tWE a proposal which would bee the, township pay MOM to the Brussels, Morris and Grey COmmunity Cen- tie negt year, its caicuated Share at - the operating costs : at the cen rte• The draft cement includes all recrea- tion In the vljlage, including the new swim ming pool which is to be completed next year. Morris had asked , for a user -fee breakdown to determine its contribution. Since the township only has 28 residents enrolled In recreation • programs in the village, it was determined Morris should pay $4,000, compared to Brussels and Grey which will pay $7,000 for 61 and 63 registrants respectively. " •-- In addition Morris will grant $887 to the community centre this year. In other business, council will tender for a firm to supply and equip the new township shed with propane for two years. Tenders closed Sept. 16. The official opening of the shed is schedul- ed for Oct. 19 at 2 p.m. Ken Shortreed of RR 3, Walton, is the new Morris Township tile drain inspector. He "Planning Effective Meetings" by Melanie McLaughlin, Ministry of Tourismand Recreation, Hanover; and "Time Manage- ment", again by Sylvia Balfour. The keynote address, entitled The Challenge to the Volunteer Executive", will be given by Bud Bitton of the Ministry of Tourism an 'Recreation, Hanover. Netzke is I46ping for about 100 participants at the conference and has extended the deadline for application to Friday, September 20. She feels the conference will give volunteer executive members a unique opportunity to hear professionals from all over Ontario address their needs. "We hope to provide information and resources to community volunteers to im- prove their' effectiveness in their organiza- tions." she concludes.
