Alcott Arena last Herald photo Theres more to selling those chocolate bars than meets the eye There is more to selling a chocolate bar than there might seem to be as area arena managers and concession booth operators learned at an Ontario Arena Association sponsored seminar on how to run a more pro fitable concession stand at the Gordon arena last week After the seminar Dave Allen who manages the concession booth at the Civic Centre said he plans to concentrate his efforts on trying to get people to buy more than they originally intended To do this Mr Allen plans to make the booths more

as the best layout of a concession and the new concession products out on the market The town superintendent for facilities John ed the event He stressed the topic of concession operation is impor tant to the town because we operate several concession booths The town has booths in the three arenas the cultural tre and the Civic Centre Mr Forestell said this was the first time in years Halton Hills has hosted an arena association meeting Although all of the town run con cessions generate a profit there is always room for improvement Mr said The manager of the Acton Arena Al Hay said he will definitely try out some of the ideas he learned at the seminar I m thinking of introducing larger size drinks and possibly put ting ice in the soft he said Mr Hay stressed that seminars like this one are important because as concession profits crease ice cost decrease The Georgetown Memorial Arena manager Cecil Peacock said he is hoping to obtain some of the video tapes the speakers used in their demonstration Mr Peacock said he was especially terested in those tapes that discuss staff hiring and training Town staff will keep hands off goose eggs Hills town staff will Keep their hands off goose eggs The Town of Oakville contacted Halton Hills last month to ask councillors to volunteer to be members of a Canada Goose com mittee whose aim is to reduce the Canada Geese population at s lakes to prevent pollution The Town of Oakville sent a let to Halton Hills in November saying it may be necessary to ad die geese eggs to shake them to kill the unborn young or to shoot the geese to reduce the population But the Canadian Wildlife Ser vice sent a letter to Oakville saying eggs could be relocated to other parts of North America Acton quarry could face board hearing this summer The application by a local group to use the Acton quarry site in Limehouse for landfill is in the final stages of provincial approval and could appear before an en vironmental assessment board b late summer or early fall Provincial ministry of the en planner Tim Sharp said Monday he is preparing comments from outside agencies on a pro posal from Reclamation Systems Inc to use the Acton quarry at Sideroad 22 and Fourth Line as a landfill site Mr Sharp said that in January he will begin drafting a report that will go to environment minister James Bradley likely in March Mr Bradley can then choose to approve the application without an environmental assessment hear ing but there is a very high pro that the application will go to the board Mr Sharp said The quick approval is usually given to small or non controversial requests The Acton quarry ap plication is different because this is the first time for a private sector landfill proposal to go through the environmental assessment pro cess Mr Sharp said After the minister reviews the application from RSI he must give a minimum 30 days for outside agencies to respond Wham meets Meetings of Women of Halton Action Movement WHAM are

this summer by Halton s health department showed that geese in the lake are not a major source of pollution Certainly I prefer shipping to addling But I m not sure how this is done It might be a very scary process to a lot of geese Acton Coun Gerald Rennie said Acton Coun Norm Elliott said he does not want the town parks and recreation staff to be the ones to addle eggs if that becomes necessary I don think we have people in our recreation department who want to approach the nest of Canada Geese and shake the eggs Elliott said Councillors suggested the Canada Wildlife representative should meet with Hills council or with a special commit tee approved to study Fairy Lake pollution Halton Hills Mayor Russ Miller said studies of Acton s man made lake have shown that geese are not dependent on food from nearby residents If people keep feeding the geese I don think that going to make any difference he said THE CORPORATION OF THE Town of Halton Hills Halton H Ms Dr P Box HALTON HILLS George
