Program will offer summer activities
for eens with ministry grant
The manner : job market is a tough one to
crack and sometimes a little ingenuity can
go a long way toward landing seasonal
employment.
And ingenuity was the key ingredient in
a proposal from Janet Gardner of
Goderich whose idea to offer summer
recreational programs for teenagers in
Goderich this year was approved for an
Experience 85 grant.
Recognizing a gap in existing programs
offered by the Goderich Recreation
Department, Gardner suggested that
orgy ed activity was needed for young
peop a between the ages of 13 and 19 who
may -only work part-time during the sum-
mer months.
"The summer programs offered are
geared to children 12 and under or adults,"
Gardner explained. "There was really
nothing for the young adolescent."
She figured the chances were better than
average that the Ministry of Tourism and
Recreation would endorse such a venture
during International Year of Youth.
The objectives of the program are to of-
fer recreational activities for teenagers, a
group not directly serviced through ex-
isting programs. Gardner hopes that the
participants in the program will also be
responsible for developing and planning
the activities they will be involved in.
,Everything from teen dances, to canoe
trips, bus trips and fund-raising events will
be part of Gardner's agenda.
She began working out of the recreation
office on McDonald Street Monday, May 15
and while students are still in school, there
is much preparatory work to be done.
"I'm going to be visiting the schools and
talking to the kids about their ideas for
programs and events," she explained. "I
hope we can run trips and hold dances. But
we'll try and balance the activities and use
what's available in the community."
Gardner's first priority is to determine
the interest in summer programs for teens
and then she will address the needs of
those that are interested. "The program
will eater to the young teenager°r and we'll
try and put together the events they
want."
Gardner, who is completing the Univer-
G
sity of Windsor's communication course,
will be visiting with many area recreation
directors in communities where programs
for teenagers are currently,affered to ob-
tain background infor'knatiofl`and ideas.
Also, she will be attending an Ontario
Youth Symposium at the. University of
Windsor May 22-25. The symposium, entitl-
ed Toward a More Responsible Society,
will concern itself with the problems and
issues confronted by today's youth.
As outlined in her grant application,
Gardner hopes the program will not only
offer activities to young people but provide
them with an opportunity to gain leader-
ship and organizational experience
through involvement in the program.
If successful, there is the possibility the
program could be included in the recrea-
tion department's ongoing service.
The youth co-ordinator hopes that her
idea will develop into a viable program
serving a demonstrated need in the com-
munity. If you have any ideas_ or ri
ments on the concept of the summer pro-
gram contact Janet Gardner at the recrea-
tion office.
