Rec board considers
requests for grunts
The Goderich Recreation
Board 'voiced disapproval of
requests for grants from two
town .organizations at the first
fall meeting of the board last
Thursday night. y.
Lou Legg of the Goderich Art
Club, and Bill Reiff of .the
Minor , HockeY• Aasociation,
,represented their groups at the
meeting and asked the rec
3oard for financial 'assistance
for their' fall and winter
programs.
' The- Goderich Art Club is in
need of• suitable studio space
that is large enough for
seminar and workshop work as
Dwell as:storage of supplies. The
club vtreorced tb vacate their.
Britannia. Road , headquarters
, because that building was not
heated. Members of the group
have been searching for a
suitable location but have been
stifled by rent costs. ,
Mrs. Legg commented that
an area school room size would
be ideal but the rent cdsts are
•too l)gh. The °24 -member club
is a nonprofit -•organization.
The current bank balance foe'
the Art Club is $800, ,,,t.hat
Money coming from
registration fees over the year.
The recreationboard mem-
bers felt that the Art Club
could 'raise the required funds
on their own with very little ef-
• fort but tabled any decision un-
til a more accurate rent cost..
can be obtained.
Bill Reid requested ..the
Recreation Board give, the
Minor , Hockey Association a
• grant to cover the unpaid bills:
for ice rental that the group has
carried over from last year. The
. total amount owing by ' the
minor. hockey -is $2,127.42. the
group have a, bank 'balance of
$1,20.0 of .which they wish to
keep $200.
• Mr. Reid's proposal was that
minor hockey pay $1,090 of the
• ' $2,127.42 now and work out an
agreement with the Rec Board
for the 'remainder. The
recreation board offered a $400 a'
grant last year. for the'
association to 'operate a -
coaches' clinic. Mr. Reid
suggested they use this money
to pay Off some of the ice bill
and" wipe the remaining
$72.7:42 off the slate in the form
of a grant. -.
The ' members of the
recreation board felt that the •
minor 'hockey ,peoiSl.e have
many ,methods of raising funds
for their operation and .that
granting request e uest would
g q
tend to curb their efforts. A
decision 'on the matter was also.
tabled until further study of the
situation had been -•completed.

recreation board that another
karate school has opened in
Goderich. Legacy Karate
Schools have opened a branch
here and are using the arena
for their classes. •
The school appealed tti the
rec "board to• rent their) the
arena for $80..00 per month for
Iwo classes a week, each one
two and one half hours long,.
The normal cost of renting the
audi'ttiqum is $50.0 a night.
but since the room has never'
been scheduled in this fashion
before, a rental charge has
never been ,et.
The rec board was hesitant
to let the room go at that price
but realized that by charging
.the normal, fee the school
would not open and the local
residents interested in the mar-
'. tial art would be denied the op-
portunity 'to participate,
The members agreed 'to ren-
ting the auditorium at the
suggested rate' but insisted on a
contract system. To prevent the
loss of funds from renting the
room to Legacy .when . it could
go for the regular $50, the rec
board insisted. that if someone
wanted the use of the building
on a school night, karate would
be pre-empted.
The Beach Patrol was° not
-.successful this year in com-
parison to, 'the ' past. Mike
Dymond 'repotted that a staff
shortage hampered •the
lifeguard operations. Three
people manned the beach for
most of the summer but ,the
season was finished with only
two guards to operate the
patrol. He expressed hope that
next year would be more suc-
cessful with the acquisition of
the necessary staff.
The plans for this year's
Santa Claus parade are under-•
way and a day long celebration
is'planned. November 30 is the
date set for the parade.
Tenative plans for a Christmas'
cartoon show at the theatre in
the morning, Santa's court at
noorn, and the parade at two in,
the afternoon have been made.
This year's theme is a Pioneer
Christmas,
The rec Office hassuggested a
,proposal, for .. charges for"
recreation programs. The
charges suggested . are to -cover
instructor fees that generally,
affect the financial success of 'a
program. The maximum fee
would be- set at ,$5.00 per hour
or a flat rate of 50 to 75 percent
of registration costs depending°
on program.,costs. This system
is designed to allow costs of the
program to remain 'minimal but
.still allow it to break even at
the -end of the year.
,The arena manager feported
that roller skating has ended
for the year. and the gross
revenue from the` summer was'
•$14,486.60. The figure is up
slightly from last year's • ear-
' nings,,The arena is being pain-
ted outside' and a ,,new trophy
case. is to be. built to -house the
trophies for figure skating,
minor hockey, and Young
Canada Week.
The ,rec board approved the
purchase of one pair of Pro type
oal frames and nets and a pair'
of nets for the old frames.
