Rec. director asks for full participation
Though there was less than a perfect
turnout, approximately 60 people represent-
ing 33 sport, culture and service groups in the
area attended Seaforth's second annual
recreation conference held Saturday at the
Community Centres.
Bryan Peter, Seaforth's Recreation Direct-
or and chief organizer of the event, said he
was pleased with the turnout. Ever optimist-
ic, he said he would Tike to see a 100 per cent
turnout at the event in the future. This year ,
approximately 20 groups were not represent-
ed.
"I don't know if -I'm tieing overly optimistic
or what, but 100 per cent is what I always
shoot for. it'd the ideal," said Mr. Peter.
But despite the less than perfect turnout,
Mr. Peter said resppnse from this year's
conference was positive,
"The response we had, both verbally and
from the questionnaires we requested every
participant to fill out, was good," he said.
"It was confirmed the continuance of this
conference and the recreation newsletter.
Really it, is kind of good to note that groups
finally realize. that I'm here as a resource
person and that they are free to come in or call
me regarding any problems or requests they
might have.
"I'm here to help community groups in
' whatever way i can. And while people might
not consider themselves a community group,
my definition of that term might be a bit
broader than anyone elses."
In' keeping with the desire, to help
community groups, this year's conference
focused on the recruitment of volunteers
within an organization, how to- co-ordinate
p effective media coverage for various events
and how to arrange effective meetings.
In the realm of volunteers, Karen Ross, of
London, forced groups to look at the problem
of volunteers realistically. Participants were
required to -come up with ways of presenting
the need to the community, while at the same
time appealing to their desire to be needed.
"Recruitment is not an easy thing. What
you have to do is make the job you need done
appear worthwhile, full of satisfaction and
fun. You have to look, past 'just the asking'
and let people know what's in it for them,"
she said to the assembled group.
She said that 56 per cent of the average
population will volunteer if asked. And, ,of
56 per cent she said 37 per cent will volunteer
in religion, 23 per cent in the area of health,
23 per cent in education, '13 per cent in
recreation, 11 per cent in politics, 11 per cent
in citizenship and five per cent in the arts and
cultures.
-She said 54 per cent of the female
population is likely to volunteer as opposed to
the 46 per cent male figure, And 76 per cent of
all volunteers are professional people, 63 per
cent are farmers, 61 per cent are skilled
laborers and 54 per cent are manual laborers.
Melanie McLaughlin, a consultant with the
ministry of tourism and recreation, spoke on
"How to arrange effective meetings." Ms.
McLaughlin stressed the importance of
planning in achieving such an end and said
the four P's of people, purpose, procedures
and physical space are essential when
organizing a meeting,.
Almost as much time has to go into
Planning a meeting as into the meeting
itself," said Ms, McLaughlin.
Also covered in the discussion was the
importance of incorporating an element of
fun into a meeting and in keeping an open
network with the people in the organization.
The groups were asked to brainstorm the
problems encountered by other groups and to
come up with solutions.
No date h'as been set yet for next year's
conference, although the recreation depart•
