11 Independent & Free Press, Thursday, October 13, 2011 Find new energy. Rock on and out Three-year-old Colin Burney's shirt says it all--Rock Out-- as he gives the drums a workout during the recent Georgetown Kids Registration Expo and barbecue in support of Robbie's Rainbow. The event, held in the Halton Gate Plaza parking lot on Guelph Street, offered kids and adults alike a chance to gather information on a number of community programs. Robbie's Rainbow provides funding to families of children who require financial assistance to access treatment for Crohn's and Colitis disease.

The agency will receive $240,000 in funding from Halton Region for 2012. The majority of the funds, $175,000, will be used to support Volunteer Halton and the remaining $65,000 will go toward social planning. Staff had recommended a significant decrease to the agency's funding for next year to $100,000 and eliminating funding all together in 2013. However, following an outcry from several of Halton's community advocates, regional staff recommended continued funding for the agency for one-year terms, depending on performance checks and budget approval.
