Zurich Citizens News, 1961-01-12, Page 4PAGE FOUR ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS THURSDAY, JANUARY 12, 1961 Grand Bend Chamber Urges ' eve s pent Ski Lifts ay Se Built in Pinery Park 1, 1 C'. F. "Zeb" Janes, Lantbton East MPP, told the member: of the Grand Bend and Area Chamber of Cotutnerce that there is "a de- fintc possibility that ski lifts will; be built at the Pinery Provincial Park..' Mr. Janes, along with Gar Mey- ers. superintendent of the park, mot with the Chamber on Tuesday, ,Tat:wiry 3. to discuss details for the addition of facilities at the park. Erie 1lcllroy, past president of the chamber, presented a brief to the meeting, and asked Mr. Janes to turn it over to the minister of lands and forests. The brief prepared by the chamber, drew attention to the fact that `not enough development had been considered at the Pinery to entice out-of-town skiers." It poin- ted out that several Detroit buses pass right through Grand Bend on their way to take passengers to ski resorts in Northern Ontario. The Chamber of Commerce also pointed out that proper facilities in the Pinery could possibly mean as much as $160,000 worth of bus- iness to Grand Bend and area dur- ing the winter months. This figure was based on estima- tes that there are 220 motel and hotel rooms available in Grand Bend, and that each viistor would spend an average of $15 a day while enjoying the facilities of the park. This estimate is $9 below the fi- gure that the dep't of travel and publicity sets for the average daily spending tourists. Orval Wassmann, president of the chamber, pointed out that be- sides the hotels and motels, other businesses such as gas stations, theatres, grocery stores and other outlets would benefit from the in- flux of winter visitors. 0 Fields /Arm Heating and Tinsrnithiing ° Phone 156 — Zurich "We know these people want to come here," Mr. Wassmann added. "hut they say they like to ski—not climb." He pointed out that "people are lazy today, and they want • to en- joy the sport with as little effort as possible." (lar Myers, park sup't, pointed out that the department had star- ted out small because they knew nothing about building ski runs and toes. "We have to have expert advice to help us as we move," he added, "so we won't make any costly mistakes." Mr. Janes backed up Mr. My- ers' statement, and added that the department would only move as fast as public interest warranted, "I'll be happy to present this brief to the minister," he said, "and if he feels that lifts are warranted., I'ni confident that they will build them." Facilities Popular Mr. Myers told the meeting that the ski runs and tobaggan hills hacl been very popular so far, especially during the holidays at Christmas and New Year's. He reported that approximately 200 people used the facilities on New Year's Monday. The Pinery superintendent men- tioned that the hills hal been plan- ned in such a way that one lift would accommodate skiers on both hills. He said that a new parking lot had been built near the runs, so cars would not have to park on the roadway through the Pinery. The new space will accommodate about 40 cars. John Manore, a member of the chamber, asked if a sign could be placed so that the people would know where the hills are. "People know there is sking," he said, "but they don't know exactly where." Mr. Myers said that a sign was being built to erect in the park, but it was unlikely that any sign would be placed along the high- way. The Chamber of Commerce plans to ,sponsor a booth at the Sports- man's show in Toronto this fall to acquaint people with the new win- ter facilities at Grand Bend in ad- dition to the present summer at- tractions.

Aldis, Huron MOH, warned this week that persons suffering from "intestinal flu" should avoid contact with the very young or the aged, and under no Circumstances, should they visit a patient in the hospital. Two infant deaths have been re- ported in the Goderich area al- ready this year, and several per- sons have been hospitalized with severe cases in other centres. As yet,•Dr. Aldis has not receiv- ed any lab reports on the two deaths, but they have been attri- buted to "gastro-intestinal disor- ders." "Although often blamed on rich holiday diet, many of these illnes- ses are actually infectious," Dr. Al- dis stated. "The common symptoms are malaise, nausea, vomiting and usually some diarrhea." The Huron MOH stated that be- cause many of these cases are viral in origin, they do not respond readily to the usual forms of treat- ment. He warns that "if the ill- ness strikes the very young or the aged, it is most important to get early medical attention." a�+ac t r+r;. :y , dit Ji e �.ewraH '�zr., r.•+rercn Ea PON CE For MR.
