Exclusively Yours school visits Running fitness centre has fit reward up to principal The approval of individuals or groups making presentations in a school is now the responsibility or the principal Halton Board of Education trustees decided at their regular meeting last Wednesday evening In a report from superintendent of curriculum services George Heavers trustees were told from time to time presentations by outside agencies have given rise to some concern Where problems have arisen they have usually been caused by groups espousing an extreme point of view Typically such organizations attempt to exploit the idealism of bright intelligent young people Heavers report noted that many parents feel their children should first come into contact with such groups in a controlled setting In such an environment the subtle recruiting techniques and the fronts and covers used by many of these organizations could be examined rationally and ob jectively The report pointed out there were three possible ways to ensure presentations by outsiders do not result In unhealthy con troversy The first was the banning of all outside groups from the school However this would also mean firefighters safety officers the public health nurse and the Carousel Players A second alternative would be to draw up a list of prescribed groups This however would leave the board open to charges of dl bigotry if a list of ac- unacceptable groups were named The third option is to adopt a fair and equitable policy which would be ad ministered under very strict guidelines OPP out after drinking drivers The Ontario Provincial Police will be em barking on an allout attack on drinking drivers over the Christmas and New Years holidays Commissioner Archie son announced today officers In every corner of the

Anne Redf earn One of the greatest rewards of running a fitness centre is seeing people get fit This Is what Colleen Lead ay owner man ager of Exclusively Yours a yearold women fitness club in downtown George town maintains Colleen believes In fresh air exercise and physical fitness Im on the go from five in the morning to 10 at night I possibly do that without being in good physical shape she said in a recent interview Since opening Exclusively Yours In 1979 Colleen and her husband Don have been leadingaformorehectlclifethanusual Not only do they have the administration of the club to consider Don runs a renovating and decorating business also Don has done all the Interior work on the club done afterhours so he won t run into the clients Colleen explained feels that hammering up wall- board in a club full of women in various stages or undress is simply not done Sometimes hes In here at a Colleen commented A lot of Interior renovating has been done since the club opened with a swimming pool sauna and exercise room Every year we have expanded a little A few years ago we added a whirlpool and a We add equipment to the exercise room every year This year the addition is major Exclusively Yours is adding men Up to now as a womens only fitness cen tre membership has stabilized at about 150 people enough to keep the centre alive but not enough to support any major expansion When we began we did a lot of research into what was needed around here It was evident that fitness facilities for women were lacking in the area Colleen explain ed The womenonly membership has In creased modestly but not enough to keep it exclusively theirs she said And we bad a lot of women who said they d like to have their husbands able to come here as well she added When the notice went up on the bulletin board this rail the reaction was mixed but generally favorable There very many members opposed to opening It for men she observed Men and women will be able to use the club on alternate days with a few coed hours thrown in as well the Leadlays plan Not will the move increase mem bership but Colleen notes with satisfaction her husband will be able to do interior work during the day It will make things a lot easier The fitness program for men has not been finalized At the moment however women who are members of the club have had their choice of attending any of IB exercise classes each week The workouts are designed to accom modate any level of fitness and promote a gradual improvement The crosssection of exercisers ranges from high school students to senior citizens to BO years of age Colleen described Theyre all different sizes and shapes and they all come for different reasons Marilyn McQueen exercise instructor at the club is living proof of the benefits of the program Years ago 1 had a health problem I was told by a doctor I had to get fit or I wouldnt see she recalled Marilyn lost more than pounds through diet and exercise I enjoyed exercising so much that I called the recreation department and asked about leading an exercise program Halton Hills recreation department refer red her to a Fitness Ontario leadership training course Since then she has been running exercise programs through the reatlon department and for the club When you get Into on exercise routine your body starts to crave exercise and activity Marilyn explained That is why running era exercise sessions each day is no chore Classes fit anyone schedule Business women can make the am or 13 noon classes or they can come in the evening Mathers whose youngsters spend a halfday in kindergarten or toddler programs can at tend mid morning or midafternoon classes They can make It once twice or three times a week And there a special class for sen lor citizens I tell everyone not to push themselves too much but just allow themselves to get used to the exercise and get in shape gradually she explained Fitness for men might take the form of regular exercise classes as well but the arc waiting to see what the men will want before malung any plans We expect men will want to use the weight lifting equipment more said Again the hope to expand the club this year with the addition of courts and a larger exercise room lo mod ate bigger classes Keeping the club small has made it seem a lot more intimate and friendly Colleen added We hope It will always feel that way even when membership grows Lake s scientific value to be described in updated volume The scientific Importance of Crawford Lake will be noted In the new edition of the Geology of Canada a periodically updated volume listing facts concepts and Inter pretation of Canada geological features published by the Geological Survey or Canada Dr John Jock McAndrews Curator or the Royel Ontario Museum in Toronto will write the description Crawford Lake located in Halton on the Niagara Escarpment on the Guelph Line and Steeles Avenue near Campbellville was formed 15000 years ago as glaciers retreated from the area The lake is mero mlctic the water only circulates from top to bottom and descending surface water seldom disturbs the cold dense oxygen low bottom water near the centre of the lake The lake is feet deep and has a surface area of only eight acres Because of the meromictlc condition sediment is deposited in distinct layers light colored in summer and dark in winter McAndrews devised a sampling tech nlque for obtaining undisturbed sediment cylinders which adhere to a tube containing dry ice Dating material found in the sedi ment samples is as simple as counting down the number of layers from the top A pre European Iroquois Village was dls covered near the lake after corn pollen was discovered in layers representing the years 1434 to 1459 Work has now started on rebuilding the village as it was then The village is the most accurately dated pre European Indian settlement in Canada only the second be reconstructed on its original site Work began late in September Crawford Lake located within easy driving distance of more than three million people is already a popular tourist More than people visited the lake during the past year including students who participated in special edu cation programs beween May and Septem ber The lake has been of great scientific inter est since the property was acquired by the Region Conservation Authority more than years ago There ore now five universities conducting research there and the surrounding area These include Brock University University of Toronto Univer sity of Western Ontario University of Waterloo and University of Guelph Experts from the Canada Centre for In land Waters in Burlington have invited visit ing scientists from Europe to study Crawford Lake Researchers have come from such other centres as the University of Western Ontario the Royal Ontario Museum and the University of California Berkeley The discovery of seeds In the I lake bottom has forced scientists to con elude the plant was growing in North America before the coming of Europeans It was previously thought to have been brought from Europe bv settlers The discovery of burnt com stalk remains in the sediment suggests that the Iroquois cleared their fields by burning a system that has been suggested before but for which no real proof existed Road conditions Did you know that effective November 14 1983 and
