New West Huron Care Centre opens doors
Lynda Hlliman-Repley
Lakeshore Advance
Federal, provincial and municipal
representatives joined Blue Water Rest
home staff today to officially open the
West Huron Care Centre.
The multipurpose centre occupies
space in what was formerly a part of
the Blue Water Rest home, freed up
during a recent redevelopment project.
It offers a wide range of services for
residents young and old, including
daycare, counselling, Job training and
transportation coordination services.
"This new community centre is a
very, special project for Blue Water Rest
)line, the community of Zurich and
for everyone who lives in beautiful
Huron County" said Ben Lobb, Mem-
her of Parliament for Huron -Bruce, on
behalf of the Honourable Denis Leben,
Minister of Transport, Infrastructure
and Communities. "It will strengthen
the programs offered here and help
bolster Zurich's already strong spirit of
community now and for future
generations. Most importantly, it has
created local jobs and will provide
much needed services to seniors and
families in this area for years to come."
"'Through our infrastructure invest-
ments, we are building communities
that give families and their children
the support they need to grow, be
healthy and succeed," said the
1 ionourable
Carol Mitchell, Member of Provin-
cial Parliament for Huron -Bruce. "'the
Government of Ontario is proud to
help bring important infrastructure
and new services and opportunities to
the community of Zurich."
"We are very pleased to provide our
support for new services, particularly
child care programs, in this area of the
County", said Neil Vincent, Warden of
Huron County. "'The local communi-
ties benefit from both social infrastruc-
ture and job creation to enhance our
rural economy and way of life;'
"We envisioned the West Huron
Care Centre as a community service
hub to serve changing needs in this
area," said Ron 1 ieitnrich, Board Chair
at Blue Water Rest I tonne. "'This Centre
is the result of forming new collabora-
tions with expert organizations, and
slaking sure they have suitable
resources to deliver their skills. We
have been delighted to work with all
our funding partners to achieve this
goal."
The governments of Canada and
Ontario each contributed nearly
$346,000 toward this project. The
County of i luron contributed $140,000
and the Blue Water Rest Tlotne
contributed the balance of the total
eligible project cost of more than
$1 million.
Federal funding for this project
comes from the Government of
Canada's $4 -billion Infrastructure
Stimulus Fund, which is providing
funding to over 4,100 infrastructure
projects across the country.
Over the last couple of months,
Ontario had an increase of 38,000 jobs
and the unemployment rate declined
to 7.9 per cent.
