The talents that Ron Morris exercised when employed are now bringing* him recognition in retirement. The Whitby resident's entry in the Ontario Senior Gamnes poster contest was previously chosen as the winner by the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation for the games. And only last week, Morris was informed that his entry in the Whitby Comnmunity Information Centre lggo contest was also a winner. An Ontario Art College graduate, Morris was a graphicý artist for 33 years with General Foods, working on bôoklets and brochures. His Senior Games poster, now ail over Ontario as seniors, including those in Durham Region, compete in events, was, judged best of 36 entries. A gala awards ceremnony was- previously held- by the niinistry and corporate.' sponsor. Morris received a $500 fir st prize. His poster includes the Gamnes symbol and six scenes showing the Gamnes' spýorts. Seniors card increasiLngly popular It started about six years ago as an idea, hatched by Scar- borough council memnbers and developed by marketing coun- sellor Bob Brophy, to aid local seniors. And once put in place, it has now*spread across the country - the Seniors of Canada membership card for those 55 and over, offering cardholders dis- counts on travel, hoels, shops, restaurants and many other services. 'It seemned so popular they decided to extend it across the country," says Ray Lunn, mana- ger of the Durham Region area for the card. It's growing in laaps and bounds , says Lunn, noting there are now 400,000 membars in Canada. A membership card costs $8 a year, or $17 for three years. Lunn estimates that the average use will realize savings of $600 to $700 a year with the card. Lunn says the card is particularly baneficial to those living on fixed incomes. He says work is about to begin on a directory of Durham estab- lishments which will honor the card. Directories, once completed,ýI' will then ha mailed toalal seniors" living in Durham Region. The amount of discount varies- from 10Qto 60 par cent.
