More -than 40 years af- ter the war, my generation is pass- ing on the lessons of experience to young amputees through the CHAMP Program. This special relationship has ena- bled the War Amps to develop ser - 'vices for amputees that are une- qualled anywhere else in the world. PLAYSAFE, - MATCHING MOTHERS; SAFETY WALK, CHAMP seminars...these arc just a few of the programs that benefit not just amputees and their families but all Canadians. There arc now more than 1,200 children enrolled in CHAMP who are missing limbs from -birth, acci- dents or for medical reasons. The CHAMP Program provides them with specially _design_ed-sports limbs; counselling and a chance to meet other amputees their own age. When there arc no more war ampu- tees, we will become the Canadian Amputees Foundation and the grad- uates from CHAMP will carry on our tradition of "amputees helping amputees." Your publication ttas played an important role in making sure peo- ple arc. informed about the services we offer. We hope you will be able to continue your valuable assistance during our Fall Campaign which commences in your arca October 17th and runs for a period of four weeks. During this time, house- holds will receive thc War Amps popular return address labels in thc mail.

Times -Advocate, October 19, 1988 Page 7A ec board gives approval for regional- senior garnes • EXETER.- At Its monthly ntect- ingiast Wednesday night the South Huron Recreation and Community Centre_ 'Board -agreed to go ahead - with a proposal to hold the regional seniorc#uzens games in. Exeter dur ing the summer of 1989. Board member Lynne Farquhar had been approached by organizers 131 the event and asked if Exeter was interested,because places such as Zurich and Seatorth backed out be- cause they felt they were too small and il Exeter didn't want to.hold the gaunts•thcy may not be held at all. The games would mean 500 sen- • ior_citvcns.coming to town, from - the arca, for the -two -day -event; par- ticipating -in 20 games over thatpe- riOd. -. . . The organizers also asked Fargo -- - bar if -some -games can be subsidized to beep the cost of some events, >uchas golf, down. Mayor Bruce Shaw said the town should not be have to subsidize _ .•anything buthe would-be happy to . have the people come to town. Farquhar also hoped to raise inter- est in Exeter seniors who previous= had not -shown -much -desire in — havirtg'them in town. The board did agree it will go ahead with plans to host the games, as long as the town -can break even. Gabby Mol and John Pryde, of the. Exeter 'Mohawks Senior B Hockey team, also approached the board with a preliminary proposal tobuild a dressing roomfor the Mohawks in the arena.. "We .would like IP have regular _ and consistent use of an equipment room, said Pryde. "Right now we have to lug our equipment in and out for games and we arc looking :for something more permanent such as what the Hawk: currently en- joy," he added. Although nothing was put forth formally to the board, Mol said - they would like to have -a room • one -and -a -half times` larger than the - existing dres og -room and they. . would like t� have it located in the north -cast comer of thc building. -They would also like to have it equipped with a washer and.dryer to keep uniforms and equipment clean. The Mohawks said they would like to have the_ room ready for next season, so, if approved, construe- - tion -would: begin in the -spring. -Due to the fact -that the Mohawks' proposal was in the early planning stages, the board recommended that the team's proposal be heard at the next Facilities Committee meeting, on October 2-5, and to have their plans more concrete. The board also agreed that the Rec -staff would continue to clean the .washroom. at McNaughtbn Park Pool instead of letting the pool staff do the work. Shaw said sonic people in town had asked about the possibility of constructing new washrooms in the park, but -since there are no under- ground pipes or hydro hookups, the existing washrooms at the pool would have to suffice. The washrooms open Victoria Day weekend and would close Thanksgiving Day .weekend, but the pool would continue to stay open from late June to August Dave-Urlin, of the Ag Building Washroom Committee, asked the Rec board for a three-month exten- sion to help pay 'the S6,189 loan which was needed,to cover the out- standing costs.. of building the -washrooms. _ The original price to build the washrooms at the Agriculture Building was $30,000 and after fundraising the Washroom Commit- tee -is $6,000 short. Since Erlin told the Board some civic and sports groups had yet to contribute this year, it agreed to the extension. The Board also recommended that South Huron District High School . be charged $30() for the season for practice and game use of the ice. Last year the school was not charged anything but Farquhar felt the lee was necessary to help pay for the staff that was needed to run the facility and the Board agreed. The Facilities Committee agreed to allocate S600 towards the pur- chase of a slide -in thc playground behind the Rcc Centre. The existing spiral slide is broken and in need of being replaced. - Chairman Ken Okc said a new spiral slide would cost S1,200 so the board agreed to allocate the money tothe purchase of a new straight slide. However, Oke said if a group or person would like a spi- ll)! slide put in the Board would put up' S600 with their money to buy the more expensive slide. If no one is interested, then the straight slide will be bought.
