Interest in a mini Olym- . pies for the south Huron area remained high following- a meeting Wednesday between the individuals who - have explored the concept and several interested citizens. Deb Wooden and Bob Whiteford told the 13 people who attended the meeting they were looking for input from citizens across the area and what they were proposing were simply suggestions. Rec Administrator Kirk Armstrong said he had no . pre -conceived notions as to what will take place but he said the event will "be a competition for the fun of it." Armstrong emphasized his roli�tivould be strictly as a co- ordinator and,that he would not have a part in the actual running of the event. Wooden and Whiteford told the gathering the week .of activities in June of 1980 would cap a period of physical fitness awareness for the people of this ,area. Wooden said physical fitness could be approached from three different angles: independent activities, organized activities and consultant designed physical fitness programs for clubs and -industries..

They pointed out community participation oriented sports events were not new, with Port Elgin and Owen Sound running sport- fests for a number of years. While the overall concept met with general approval, there was some question as lo what was the purpose behind the year and a half.of activities. AI Beattie, a teacher at Usborne Central School asked how interest in the program - would be stimulated among children who already know their athletic limitations and among adults who have been away from sports. He said it was among these latter groups that the idea, would have to be sold. Wooden suggested the activities could be set so the main competition would be .between the individual, in terms of improving his or her level of physical fitness. Armstrong agreed, saying participants should be recognized but he didn't know how it could be ac- complished. Eric Finkbeiner of the Stephen township recreation committee gave his en- dorsation to the project saying "There are people looking for things to do" as witnessed by the success of the'slowpitch league which operated this past summer out of Crediton. - Dennis Hockey of the Exeter Kinsmen said he was interested in the physical fitness benefits of such a program. " He said winning does not interest ,him. Armstrong said the sport van of the ministry -of culture and recreation will be coming to Exeter in November to check the physical fitness levels of area citizens and that the van could come back on a regular basis if a good number of people show up. Kevin Short, suggested some of the sports could be based on conditioning with the person who•improveg his level of physical fitness the greatest, winning. Ron Helm representing soccer in the area, suggested the primary goal of the Olympics group at this time should be to identify what is to be achieved. . Doug I Ellfpon concurred with Helm and said one goal should be set. The South Huron phys-ed teacher said "The goal should be defihed and then find the necessary parts that will fit that goal." .Whiteford and Short said �e idea behind the event hen ft was first conceived Please turn to page 12 SUPER BUY! diagonal uaskar • Save on lowEnergy Use Big. brilliant picture yet uses as little energy as TWO 50 watt light bulbs Helps you conserve on energy. • • save on Brilliant Picture Quasar's In -Line Matrix Stripe picture tube delivers a superb color picture with deep reds. vibrant blues and natural fleshtones. • Save on Great Reliability 100°° Solid State "Service Miser" Chassis requires fewer physical parts.
