initial arrangements for the
display.
"The church will be there to
demonstrate our interest in

said Mr. Kaufman. "It is a
unique opportunity to meet so
many people."
With the theme "Creating
Together", the church tent
will provide opportunities for

Displays will feature

to community needs locally,

recreation scheme and lays
down a few sugge stion:s as to
Jw the programs can be
initiated.
The basic theme of the
report is to meet the
recreational demands of a
community that now has
more time on its hands than it
ever did. The result is
reflected in an indrease in the
number of municipalities
employing fui.1 time
recreation directors and
establishing committees to
handle res services. Facilities
have been expanded. both
indoor and outdoor, schools
are being used extensively
both summer and winter and
rec programs are being
developed consistently and
staff hired to operate them.
The expansion of these
sel'vices has caused the
municipalities to feel a pinch
in areas of finances. facilities
and staff. Municipalities are
being asked to provide ser-
vices for their own taxpayers
and, due to the incased
mobility of people, for tax-
payers in neighboring
communities. ,People are
driving out of/their area to
make use ,rrf facilities and
programs,. offered by their
neighbors and the inequities
that prdmpt these moves are
the seasons the area rec
services are being in-
vestigated.
The establishment of the
services would enable have
not communities to provide
their taxoavers with the, same
facilities the have
communities have according
to the report. The have areas
are those with a large enough
tax base to provide residents
with a full-time recreation
staff and adequate facilities
)vhile the have riots don't have
that base. These inequities
have been overcome in areas
of fire protection and health
by means of community
organization and the report
suggests that the same can be
done in recreation.
..Concern. cooperation and
coordination on an area basis
between • various
mun.icipalaties in a particular
geographic area can start the
bad rolling toward resolving
the inequities. that roti exist:'
the report states .
The suggestion for
establishing the services
made in the report are bulked

suggests timing for the plan
and claim that decisions on
support or non support is
needed from individual
communities by early (all and
i a decision from county
council is needed before the
year is out
The report suggests that
boundaries could be a
problem. Trying to establish
a dividing line between
people in the same com-
munity to have them travel in
opposite directions to fulfill
their recreational needs will
be a problem according to the
report It suggests that the
known municipal boundaries

establishing rec areas.
resolving them around areas
that now employs a full time
di rector.
To encourage cp-operation
between municipalities and
the creation of area services
the county coruld provide an
incentive grant to the areas
combining their ser'. Ices
according to the report It
does not suggc.1 how these
grants will be structured
suggesting that the criteria
could be established later
