Kathleen Buckley, co-ordinator at the
MacKay Centre, told the meeting that an
elevator in the centre is nearing comple-
tion: making access to the building easier.
Buckley said the centre has 381
members who pay a yearly fee of $3 and
who recieve 10 installments of the centre's
newsletter The MacKay Messenger, each
year.
The MacKay Centre provides, for a
small fee, a Card of Life. The card con-
tains a photo of the subject as well as rele-
vant information on the individual's
health. One card is placed on the subject's
fridge and the other in their car.
The centre provides; keep fit courses,
dances, variety concerts, and other ac-
tivities for seniors.
Marg Swan spoke about The Golden
Gate Seniors, a 60 member club within the
MacKay Centre. The Golden Gate Seniors
promote contact with, and unity among,
seniors. They hold dinners, contribute to
charities, and work with other groups to in-
crease the visibility of seniors in society.
Bev Brown of Town and Country
Homemakers assured the audience the
Meals on Wheels program will continue.

Some fear had been expressed at the
meeting that the program was about to be
cancelled, but Brown said that though new
volunteers are needed, Meals on Wheels
will go on. She also expressed the hope that
the program could be expanded into the
townships.
Brown said Town and Country provides
homemaking for seniors by linking with
other services such as the Multiple
Sclerosis Society, and Veterans Affairs.
Brown said she would like to see an expan-
sion of the Telephone Reassurance service
which insures that seniors receive a daily
call. Brown also spoke about the Friendly
Visiting Program which provides human
contact and companionship for seniors.
Brown said she would like to see an ad
hoc committee made up of members who
would develop a service strategy.
Recreation Director Jane Netzke said a
plan is in the works to make all recrea-
tional facilities accessible to seniors and
the disabled. She said the recreation
department provides a free taxi service to
seniors wanting to attend meetings at the
MacKay Centre. The department also
operates swimming, skating, and cooking
classes as well as art classes. The depart-
ment, in liason with other seniors clubs co-
ordinates the local senior games held
every two years.
Home Care's Linda Reid said she would
like to see more resource people putting
seniors in contact with the services they
need. She said Home Care is funded solely
by the provincial government. The Acute
and Chronic Care program is for those who
need intensive health care: a medical
referral is neccessary. The Integrated
Homemaking Program is designed for
frail elderly seniors and handicapped
adults. There is assistance in meal
preparation, laundry, banking, etc. The
long-term goal is to allow seniors to re-
main in their own home.
Representives from the Lions, Rotary,
and Foresters, and from Heart to Heart,
Maple Grove Lodge, church, library, and
other groups alsomade presentations at
the meeting.
