Kleinburg Klarion HELP You need never find your- self in a frenzy because your babysitter can’t make it at the last minute. Consider- able work and organization has gone into compiling an extensive list of babysitters for HELP's files. As well as being in Klein- burg and immediate area. some of the sitters reside in Pine Grove and on various concession roads. so you should be able to find one handy to your location. The cards are filed acâ€" cording to area. Each baby- sitter has a separate card in the file, containing such in- formation as name. age, ad- dress. experience, prefer- ences regarding ages of chilâ€" dren to look after. any special abilities, days and hours available etc. So please remember when you need a sitter simply call HELP 851-2333. Let’s make use of this handy list. All of the teenagers who names are on file are very en- thusiastic and eager to be called. If you would like to have your name added to the list simply call HELP and a tele- phone volunteer will take down the necessary informa- tion. tricks of the trade’ A reminder to HELP volunteers of the luncheon today (Thursday). Guest speaker will be Mrs. Rank from the Red Cross Homeâ€" makers Service. If you are pressed for time on that day please feel free to drop in at anytime and leave when necessary. The noon luncheons are very in- formal so you may come and go as you please. Scouts The profit from the sale of Christmas Trees was just over $100. Special thanks to John Reevor, Norm Hall and the Scouts, Venturers and Rovers who braved the cold, snowy day as well as to resi- dents who supported Scout~ ing. The recent bottle drive was also a success. earning $125 for the boys Thanks to everyone who helped with and contributed towards that drive. February 22 is the date for the father and son dinner to be held at the junior school. Guest speaker will be Coun- cillor Mike Bevan. Mr. Bevan is past president of the Rotary Club and past district commissioner Hum- her-Seneca. The Scout and Guide Church Service is scheduled for February 25 at Kleinburg United. A parade is also planned for this day. ‘ Recycling Program Orchids to Woodbridge for recently organizing a WAR on poliutiori and waste with the formation of WAR, Woodbridge Area Recycling. Let's get busy and organize a recycling program of our own. A few concerned citi- zens in the area have already ‘started the wheels in motion ‘and are trying to get such a program underway. But they need your help and coâ€" Briefly, this group plans to pickup paper and cardboard, glass and tin cans. Concern- ed citizens in the area have already volunteered their ga- rages etc. as drop-off depots for their neighbors’ conveni- ence. High school students will pick up the recycleables at these deposts every other week. They will then be taken to a central depot for final sorting. Kleinburg residents have proven themselves to be very concerned citizens in matters affecting their community. One recent example was our victory over a proposed garbage dump on Highway 27. But this victory does not mean that we can sit smueg back as we cart tons of garb- age to the bottom of our driveways every week. This garbage has to go some- where. Mrs. Audrey Armstrong, a If the garbage goes to an open dump, it presents a danger to health, is ugly and wastes space. If it is burned it contributes to air pollu- tion and if it is buried in sanitary landfill sites it may create soil and water pollu- tion and give off dangerous and unpleasant gases. I believe it is about 25 years before landfill sites which have been filled with garbage may legally be used for the purposes, ie. parks, etc. Perhaps you would be will- ing to volunteer part of your garage as a depot or maybe you have some ideas or spare time to contribute towards this endeavor. If you fit any of these categories please call HELP.
