Th,, Com mittee last ursday.,. with - ,drawing: a X15 lurch a for: the use Of the _town's; recreation facilities. The $15 charge, winch has been in effect since Sep- teinber, • was ,-,".'dropped, Committee member Dennis Jewitt explained, "to let the townships decide how they'd like it, (recreation)), to be handled." People who have paid the $15 can get a refund from the. various club members who • collected the fee. "not from. the Recreation Committee,". committee secretary, Marie" Jefferson. said. "The ,recreation committee hasn't collected any money from the clubs," - • Although the $15 has been rescinded, a.siinilar fee may be installed unless a proposed area recreation board adopts a different `financial arrangement: In a meeting between the Recreation Committee. and representatives of Goderich, Hullett,. Stanley and Tuckersrnith Townships, following the committee's regular monthly meeting, the advantages and disad- vantages of an area tre.creatio.p board .were - '1;•sfar as Wu11 t'own'ship concern whole ;"-t*..: 11 ig,"� (~lie e.•r:ea . board), ,is: lust; too a ambitious :." said I•J 1'1'kett �.Towfish`ip , Reeve, John Je:' itt ' "I think the disadvantages far ;outweigh the ad- vantages." An area recreation" board would eliminate the• duplication of -services that. presently -4o exist,. committee member* Dean Reid said, pointing • out an obvious ad- vantage. One of the reasons that discourages .the Reeve from committing Hullett to an area board is Clinton's -recreation deficit, which he believed to total approximately $60,000. "A deficit like that is just ridiculous. We haven't got it and we don't want it," Jewitt said. When •contacted by the News -Record, secretary Marie Jefferson explained that the Recreation com- mittee didnot have a deficit last year.
