SCHOOL TRUSTEE ARC Advised T o Involve Municipalities "You are at the crossroads of the recreational future. You have gone as fax-"as you can go with volunteer money and volunteer workers," Jack Eilbeck of the Com- munity Programs Branch of the Ontario Department of Education told the annual meeting of the Thornhill Area Recreation Committee November 26. The municipal government must decide to enter the field of recreation or it runs the risk of allowing the physical growth of the mun- icipality to exceed its rec- reational growth, Mr. Eilbeck warned. “The only priority for you is the priority of a master plan of municipal in- volvement in the recreation- al field," he said. At the same time, Mr. Eil- beck noted that the degree of municipal involvement can only be as much as the taxpayers can bear. Recrea- tional needs can’t supersede other needs, he stated but must be integrated with them. "You set the prior- ity," he said, “by those you elect and the guidance you give your municipal govern- ment." Admission receipts totalled $16,257.10 compared to $18.- 825.70 for 1963 and snack bar profits were $1,040.22 compared to $783.44 last John Hanna presented a comprehensive report of the operation of the swimming pool. Despite loss of rev- enue caused by cancellation of the Richmond Hill child- ren’s swimming lessons, 3 higher payroll and very cool Weather in August, the pool enjoyed a successful year fi- nanclally and had a surplus comparable to 1963. Proï¬t from the snack bar was also up considerably. year‘ Results of the Red Cross examinations were encourag- ing with 92 of 102 candidates being successful. The teach- ing staff was composed of Mark-Venn WI The December meeting will five Red Cross qualified in- structors and one leader. In addition, two junior guards gave assistance. With a to- tal of 1,150 children regis- tered for lessons, this made the teacher-pupil ratio ap- proximately 1-10. It was noted that the teaching staff was the same as the year previously, with the exception of one instruc- tor and as the experience gained by these instructors was invaluable, every effort Should be made to obtain their services again. This means that the ARC must be willing to pay salaries com- parable to those in Toronto. Mr. Hanna stressed. It was reported that only seven swimmers required as- sistance from the life guards. and none required first aid. Accidents at the pool were minimal, the most prevalent injury being bleeding noses and scrapes. Disciplinary action was taken with respect to 160 children during the season with eight barred from the pool for the year for such things as theft and gross dis- obedience. Maintenance of the pool had been quite satisfactory and it was not necessary to drain it during the summer. Five water tests were done by the York County Health Among recommendations made in the manager‘s re- port were that the entrance, lobby, checking system and pool office he modernized, that new benches be con- structed or purchased and that mercury vapour over- head lighting be installed di- rectly over the pool. Unit and tow. At the'conciusion of his report. Mr. Hanna thanked the staff and members of the ARC. Starting as a counter boy nine years ago, he had worked at just about every job there, he said, and had enjoyed particularly his last three years as manager. It had contributed greatly to his maturing and to the fi- nancial demands of five years of university educa- tion. "When I change my title from “Mr.†to “Dr.†next year, you will have played a substantial part in making it possible†he con- cluded. The treasurer’s report was given by Derek Giles and showed a surplus on the sea- son's operations of $1,270.63, with the bank balance as of October 31 standing at $6,- 911.86.

Lougran, baseball commissioner, gave the re- port of the baseball activi- ties, noting that 179 boys had taken part.

Gaither Zinkan, chairman of the Thornhill Library Board was on hand to thank the ARC for their $200 do- nation to the library. He had brought with him the jackets from the books the library had purchased with the donation and advised that they had tried to buy books dealing with recrea- tion with the money. Mr. Zinkan explained how the provincial library grants had been cut in the past few years, from $1200 in 1961 to $480 in 1984. The reason this had been done, he said. was to encourage libraries to either expand and take care of a larger section of the population or close up altogether. After paying their mini- mum expenses each year, for mortgage paYments. heat, light, $260 for cleaning and only $700 to the librarian. Jane McLaren, the board has very little left with which to purchase books. In fact, the $200 donation from the ABC was about 30% of their book budget, which was a very nice boost, Mr. Zinkan stated. The new court and fencing of the three courts used by the tennis club had cost ap- proximately $3.000, reported Walter Ellis, president of the tennis club. This expendi- ture had been financed by the ARC and would be re- paid over a three year per- iod. the first instalment hav- ing already been paid out of this year’s receipts. Between 135 and 140 members were registered last summer and contributed $750 in fees. A regular in- struction program had been followed with between 20 and 30 intermediates and juniors having instruction three times weekly. Their only problem, Mr. Ellis stated, was in getting enough members to share in the running of the club. This year’s peewee hockey team is undefeated so far and could well get the On- tario title, reported D. M. Hopper, chairman of the' Thornhill Hockey Associa- tion. They have 72 boys on five teams, two bantams, a midget. a peewee and a tyke. The boys are in the North York section of the OMHA and have played five or six exhibition games so far. All home games are played at Doublerink Arena in Vaughan Township. The teams have had heavy‘ expenses, Mr. Hopper stated and have had financial as- sistance from the Ontario Athletic Association and from the Vaughan Township ARC which has subsidized their ice time to some ex- tent. The energetic treas- urer of the association, Jim Antonacci, had rounded up sponsors for the five teams who have contributed $250 to each one. The boys them- selves pay $1.00 for each two home games they play. A report on the Thornhill Church Hockey League was given by Jack Sloane and Tom Brown. Founded five years ago, this group now has 21 teams and over 350 boys in it.
