Reception and Dance for Mr. and Mrs. John Shaddick (nee Nancy Powell) Londesboro Hall Friday, January 13 Jim Scoff's Orchestra LUNCH COUNTER 2p The Pinery Provincial Park, which attracts thousands of Pereerres, to its summer has added new recreation fac- ilities- that should make the area a year-round attraction, During past months, the staff has cleared several of the st- eeper hills ee the Pinery, and the area has been invaded by skiing and toboggan enthuS" lasts. Two ski hills have been' clear- ed at the perk, while there are facilities for two toboggan runs, One of the ski hills is for ex- perts, due to its narrow run and sharp turns. The other hill is used by beginners of all ages, Both hills are about ,700 feet long, and have a vertical drop of over 130 feet, The expert's run varies from widths of 50 feet to less than 20, The sec- ond hill is approximately 250 feet wide, and can accommo- date several skiers at once. Gar Myers, superintendent at the park, stated that several persons have taken advantage of the new facilities and nearly 50 cars were parked near the hills during one day in the Christmas holiday weekend. "The attendance is very good on weekends," Mr. Myers stat- ed, "with the majority of en- thusiasts being in family groups," Although the patrons of the park use the facilities at their own risk, every precaution, has been taken to bring the risks to a minimum. The two tobog- gan runs have been constructed in the form of bob-sled runs, with the snow banked on each side so the toboggans will not jump out of the run. All the trees that are near the runt have been padded with bales of straw so that if one should jump the runway, there would be no chance of serious injury due to a collision with a tree. The ski hills are completely clear of all trees and stumps, and the park crew picked up all the little twigs and branches so a skier would not get injured Jobs Found For 1379 Persons Huron Area Work was found for 1,370 of 4,610 persons who applied for jobs or change in work in 1960 in the Huron area, according to the year-end report of the Goderich NatiOnal Employment Service office. The claims division of thhe office set up 2,110 initial claims during the year, and made ben- efit payments totalling about $400,000 the report added. Special consideration given. to applicants who might have en- countered more than average difficulty finding work resulted in placements for 41 handi- capped persons, 159 older work- ers and 51 veterans. "It was found that employers are much more receptive to the idea of hiring the handicapped than formerly," the report not- ed. Visits were made during the year to about half of the 907 employers in the area served by the Goderich office, and hope was expressed that this phase of the operation will be stepped up in 1961. Winter works projects in the area were said to be employ- ing about 150 men at present. in a fag. A ranger is on hand during the weekend to supervise the use of the facilities. Re keeps the 'toboggans off the ski hills and makes sure that no dogs are allowed to ran loose, Provide Shelter A comfort station has been built (adjacent to the bills for the convenience of the patrons. The cabin is heated during the weekends and on Wednesday afternoons, and there are toi- let facilities, The cabin also has a rack for clothes as well as one for skis. Persons not participating may sit in the cabin and watch the elders on the hills, At present there are no plans for tows, at the hills. However, Mr. Myers stated that if there is considerable interest shown in the new 'facilities there is a Possibility that two may be added by the department at some, later time. These are the first facilities of this nature that have been provided in any park, and Mr. Myers stated that they were "just feeling their way along" 'in this new venture, "We're just starting small-- and working up," he comment- ed. So far the hills have attract- ed enthusiasts from Sarnia, Thediford and Grand Bend. However, more people are ex- pected to use the facilities when they become better known. The park is open at any time for skiing and toboggan- ing, but is' only supervised dur- ing the weekends and on Wed- nesday afternoons, —Times-Advocate Page 6—Clinton News,•Record Thurs., Jan, 1; 1961, News of NOW By LAMY 13, WOODS PHQNE .$,ATRIVLD 45r3 The Rev.
