Huronview employs volun- teers both as individual helpers and in the form of resource groups such as church and service clubs. To carry on the variety of ac- tivities for residents, more volunteers are always needed to assist recreation director Bob Taylor, and the Volun- teer Bureau would be happy to hear from anyone in- terested in getting involved. Activities include: Sunday evening song services twice a month, old-time music programmes on Mondays,. Tuesday family -nights, Wednesday games' af- ternoons, Thursday Bible studies, and organ music, and Friday bingos -- something ,for everyone, Volunteers at Huronview come from a varied sampling of interested groups: the Christian Reformed Church, the Goderich Township Women's Institute, the Pentecostal Tabernacle in Exeter. The Volunteer Bureau is pleased with the successful placement of one of our own volunteers, Mr, Ed Zeale. Mr. Zea le helps with everything from the music: programmes and bingos to the monthly birthday party, held for all the celebrants in that month. For all these socials and music: entertainments it is necessary to see that all the residents who want to attend are able to get to the auditorium on time. This. means starting considerably in advance to bring those in wheelchairs (as many as sixty or seventy) to the auditorium individually. To accomplish this in a reasonable tinle, the recreation director might be assisted by perhaps half a dozen volunteers, individuals like Mr. , Zeale, or a group from a church or service organization that lends a hand. There arealso the ambulatory residents who may. require an arm to steady themselves down the hall to the activity centre, And always, of course, there are a few who have to be coaxed a little, The volunteer must be an understanding and pet'- sonable helper, It is very important that•friendship and co-operation prevail, and that the residents be regarded on personal terms, not as patients or boarders in an institution. In this respect, all contact between volunteers and residents helps keep the homd► and the rest, of the surrounding community from becoming separate worlds. One particularly interesting programme is the musical. afternoon presented oc- casionally by the choirgroup from Huron Centennial School at Brucefield. The young students get a, good opportunity to meet and entertain the residents, and the residents benefit from the spontaneity and zest of their youthful visitors, Such contact and communication are increasingly important in a society that tends to be too busy to take time to know 394 HURON ROAD BARNETT'S TEXACO GODERICH TREAT YOUR CAR TO A WASH IN OUR 524.7744 people and exchange with them as individuals, All homes for seniors can benefit from . volunteer assistance in programmes similar to those mentioned.
