Parents, volunteers and anyone interested in recreation is welcome to attend. mond Hill YMCA this summer. At present, a bowling league, a swimming program, and several others are in the planning stages for next summer and fall. One of the aims of many of these is to integrate the participants into regular community activities. The YCAMR aim is to improve the skills of the participants so they may be able to join community programs. These programs also provide a variety of recreational activities for those unable to join other forms of recreation. “Of course, an im- portant part of recreation is having fun!" says Noreen Seabourn, a program worker for YCAMR. “A mentally retarded person needs a break from school or work and an opportunity to enjoy himself the same as everyone else. Recreation programs give everyone involved a chance to meet new friends and have a good time." Humber’s Olympic-size equine centre offers recreational horseback riding, and there are programs in judo, golf, sailing, scuba diving and tennis and other athletic and recreational areas. In order for recreation programs to be suc- cessful, a large number of volunteers are needed. No special skills or ex- perience is required, only a desire to learn and to help others. REXDALE â€" More than 400 part-time day and evening courses are being offered this spring and summer at some nine campuses of Humber College, beginning in April and continuing on rotating schedules. “Many of our present volunteers tell us that they have just as much or more fun than the par- ticipants,“ Noreen reports. “If you are in- terested in volunteer work in spring or summer programmes, please call YCAMR at 884-9110 for further information.” Humber women ’s centre Business programs DAILY 10-6 â€" FRI. 10-9 AT THE fipimting 33511221 Maul (Entire 103MB YONGE ST.

If a photographer is trying to be creative, he should not expect everyone to like his pictures. This in part was the message brought by Harry Wilton of Braun Canada to the recent meeting of York Regional Camera Club. photographers can identify the judges by seeing their choices for first. second and third place. said Witton, and and titles on pictures often serve as blinders in judging. On the topic, Stop. Look and Look Again, Whitmn began his talk by saying judges in photo com- petitions all have their own ways and opinions.

Many possibilities in creative photography range from salesmenship and real estate to gour- met cooking and basic typing. In the areas of arts and crafts selections range from weaving to photography, music, modern dance and theatre. Registrations are now being accepted at Peeping out for Easter A photographer should not be upset if a viewer does not like what the photographer thought was a good picture. The important thing is if the photographer liked it, it achieved its purpose.
