a series of articles for “The Lib- eral’ about RICHILDACA, about our policies and objectives, and how we hope to achieve them. This camp began as an idea in the fall of 1956. and with the capable co-operation of a fellow teacher, A1 Bathurst. Richmond Hill Day Camp became a reality in the summer of 1957. We had four camp periods that year with an average attendance of 60 cam- pers. The camp has continued through the ‘past three summers and will be in operation again this summer. During these three difficult years of organization and beginning I have been for- tunate to have the financial back- ing of the Richmond Hill Recrea- tion Committee, and on occasion the Rotary Club and the Lions Club. To these- organizations Richildaca will be forever grate- .ful. The Recreation Committee has requested that the Day Camp become a private enterprise whi- ch it now is.

Any child who is eight to twelve years old, and who has completed grade 2, and is living in or visiting Richmond Hill or vicinty, is elig- ible to register with _Richildaca. We have the use of excellent facilities, and are prepared to op- erate regardlessof the weather. At the' local High School we have the playing fields, a wooded area. the' new gymnasium, and the washroom and change room fac- ilities. We have a wealth of play equipment, and craft supplies to interest children, and have built up a good supply of camping e- quipment. Whenever we trans- port the children, we sed char- tered busses, and at al times ev- ery camper is covered by acci- dent insurance. For our over- night camping we jburney to a beautiful wooded site at Kettleby, through which runs a spring-fed stream. __Z73'Sé'nd or bring entries -to;- Mrs_.

The winner will receive free tuition to the camp period of his or her choice. The rules of the contest are as follows; "-(â€"1')"'I"he craft must be made by theghild. (2)’ The completed craft, to- gether with instructions for mak- ing it, a list of materials, ap- proximate cost is required. (3) _The decision of the judges is final. (4) All projects entered become as a non-profit organization, thereby keeping the fee to a min- imum. Each child who attends will have all the benefits of a resident camp, but will be home each evening to share his or her experiences with his parents. I was talking with the mother of one of; our campers the other day and she proudly announced that “Marny will be going to a ‘Night Camp’ this year. after spending three years at Richildaca.” This pleased me because a Day Camp has as one purposeto prepare a child for a resident camp. We hope Marny Miller enjoys her ‘Night Camp' as much as we enjoyed having her at Day Camp. The report indicates that for each common and class A share net earnings were 63 cents, comâ€" pared‘ with 48 cents in 1958. Book value per share at the end of the year was $6.45. ‘ New departments included a premium division. 3 linen supply and laundry service and a mar- keting and real estate research section. Other improvements made dur- ing 1959 covered major additions to refrigerated space for the rap- idly growing frozen food oper- ation and re-location and expan- sion of both processed and non- food warehousing facilities. In preparation for this exten- sive development an IBM RA- MAC 305 electronic date proces- sor was installed and is now be- ing used to control all warehouse and billing operations. This is the first such installation in the Canadian food industry and it will provide substantial savings in future operations. geared solely to serving the needs of growing or underservic- ed communities," he says. “A solid foundation has oeen laid for expansion beyond 1960. This, coupled with continuing at- tention to wholesale and retail efficiency, should result in stead- ily rising sales and profits. CARL E. HILL, M.D., M.O.H DEPT. OF HEALTH TWP. OF NORTH YORK Imagination Is Healthy Adults play an important part in guiding the child’s imagination along safe trails, but they should refrain from hampering colourful think- ing when Bobby or Jean come up with their amazing “tall tales”. It is good to keep in mind that the vivid imagination of a child may be the forerunner of fine cre- ative work later on. Vi’tfire p‘rop'erty of.Richi1daca. (5) There is no entry fee.
