Consider Vanastra for sports

sports complex worth more than
a million dollars at Vanastra

learned last Wednesday.
The promise came Tuesday
night after Rene' Brunnelle,
Ontario's minister of commun-
ity and social services toured
the base facilities with Vanastra
developers Fred Ginn and John
Van Gastel.
During the summer, the
sports facilities of the former
base have been the interest of
numerous groups from the local,
provincial and federal level.
The facilities include a hockey
arena, two swimming pools, a
curling rink, a huge gym, an
outdoor track, football fields,
baseball diamonds and an out-
door shooting range.
Mr. Brunelle was accomp-

Dorthea Crittenden; Peter
Szego, assistant to the deputy
minister; Don Martin Executive
Director of the Community
Services division; Robert Secord
director of the Youth and Rec-
reation Branch of the Ontario
government; Jack Long, Program

Board Physical Education con-
sultant, John McCarroll.
The owners of Vanastra have
been negotiating for some time
with the provincial government
to turn the sports facilities at
the former base into a sports
training complex for the youth
of Ontario.
Brunelle said that he was very
impressed with the number of
facilities and the good condit-
ions in which they have been
kept since the base closing last
January and promised an early
answer.
Vanastra currently has•a pop-
ulation of nearly 1, 000 people
and a bank, grocery store,

promised for the near future,
