georgetown herald pubttshvd by horn nwspfre umtted 22 main street south georgetown ontario w c b1ehn publisher page 4 thursday october 5th 1967 editorial let f get together with a small storm raging between canadian legion branch and board of parks management which operates tho arena we are hopeful that an amicable tolution will be found for if not the end result will be a blow to a flourishing satur day morning hockey league which includes hundreds of youngsters engaged in heal thy recreation he matter began when the legion rec eived a letter from the parks board intimat ing that a 5 00 per hour ice rental time would be charged this year the league for which the legion provides sweaters administration personnel and a small pay ment for ice scraping heat and lights has not up to now been charged for such time this would be a matter of some si 000 for the season a meeting was requested with the board but with less than a quorum of board members attending no specific action was one solution there is one alternative which could rescue the situation and allow everyone to save face this would be for esquesing township to offer to come to the rescue and contri bute the 1 000 from its tax treasury for years there has been a feeling in town that the township should pay a share of some of the municipal services provided here which are being used by grow ng numbers of township residents and as es quesing becomes more and more urban it becomes apparent that georgetown should not be expected to pay all the costs of are na and public library to name two exam ples the town has never made a proper approach to the township coun il in this regard from time to time there has been bit of council sniping on both side- but comment taken although some revised suggestions were made following this the parks board request wos flatly turned down at at legion meeting there are two sides to every dispute the parks board operating on a slim budget by which it must supplement town grant with revenue must try to do the best for the most with the money available it is quite possible that it needs this extra thousand dollars and must obtain it either from a sponsoring group or from a public source it would appear that now ether the leg on wilh or without cooperat on of other service type clubs must find the 1 000 or the town treasury will have to forfeit the extra money or saturday morning hockey as we have known it will be a thing of the pasr and that would be a real tragedy for all concerned to our knowledge the two councils have never really got together and discussed the matter rationally esques ng should not look on george town as trying to gouge tax money from them any more than georgetown should regard esquesing as coast ng c which he town creates and pays for there should be a mutual feeling of good news echoes fnm th hnmi of 10 and 20 yun ago it always ehds up with the waterboy j sugar and spice by bill smiley s my college coed father points out
