Reunion took ‘Kids‘ to favorite haunts A pending social contract agreeâ€" ment had the executiveâ€"director of Halton Children‘s Aid Society runâ€" ning "from room to room" Friday. Children‘s Aid Society still looking at cuts Ron Coupland had a ticklish job. He had to submit an immediâ€" ate plan for cutting about $63,000 from his budget without attacking a recent Canadian Union of Public Employees agreement, the union in which CAS is a member agency. "We are submitting a plan to do it but how to find the money will take us till the end of the year," said Coupland. But to her surprise, Glover discovered a third classâ€" mate who had also came ‘back home,‘ Bob Watson. And it was his mother, Elsie Watson, who joined the ‘Burgundy Drive Kids‘ in celebrating their reunion. She joined the group for the bus trip which took them back to their old street â€""we were neighbors" â€" for a ‘walkabout‘ and a look at their houses. "Some remained the same, others were renovated, or torn down and rebuilt," said Glover. The reunion began with Glover hosting a lunch at her Iroquois Ridge home, complete with memorabilia, pictures, newspaper clippings and yearbooks of those old school days. From there they boarded a bus "for a nostalgia tour of Oakville" which included Linbrook School, Burgundy Drive, and both the old and new Oakville Trafalgar High Schools.

Halton Regional Police say the leak occurred from a tap at the house. Police, fire, Town of Oakville and Union Gas workers worked at the scene until the leak was repaired. No fire or injuries occurred. Det. Sgt. Graham Barnes said the leak was reported around 10:20 p.m. and the area residents were evacuated within 15 minutes.

It was really nostalgic." The evening ended with a stroll around the Oakville Harbour and Lakeside Park area. The reunion ended Sunday with brunch at Sharkey‘s on the Water, "which used to be the Old Riverside where we also had a lot of fun!" again For Glover and the others, it was an opportunity to reflect and "a chance for all of us to meet each other â€""We‘re all leading successful lives, some of us are world travellers, but it really doesn‘t matter what peoâ€" ple have done," reflected Glover. "We found out that we share some really good memories, and we felt comâ€" fortable with each other. "They were my friends 30 years ago and they are still my friends.

"We began to think other alternative than t« the system (receiving home)," said Coupland. _ , However, recent social conâ€" tract agreements, cutting $10 milâ€" lion from the province‘s social serâ€" vices sector, has meant the HCAS is now looking at a $63,000 reducâ€" tion instead of $210,000. Meeting the target will not involve any forced days off for staff, if he can help it. "We don‘t want to put our workâ€" ers in a bind like that," he stated. Instead, the Society will probaâ€" bly continue to cut programs using contracted services. It has already done away with its play therapy program and the two psychologists hired for it and is contemplating cancelling its Young Parents Support Program. The Children‘s _ Assessment _ & Treatment Centre in Burlington has already picked up the first program and Halton Adolescent Support Services will probably take over the second. These agencies have "more flexibility" in their m dates than the HCAS. he noted. This huge picnic is being held on Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 11 and 12.
