each wednesday afternoon at the office on main georgetown authorized as second class mall post office dept ottawa member of che canadian weekly newspapers association and the ontarioquebec division of the cwna the editors column renovator the town hale w the auditorium of the old town hall vacant these many yars is gradually coming to life for many years it has stood silently watching the town grow lar ger almost forgotten by those who knew her and un acquainted with the many who have moved to town in the last few years some weeks ago hal newman whose new job as recreational director necessitated an office of some sort took us up to the hall to point out its possibilities it was our second visit to the building the only time previous being one halloween back m 1941 when the town had a childrens party the last time to our know ledge that any public activity has been held there and there as we looked beyond the dust and the cobwebs the pigeon refuse and the broken stage sets we saw it the recreational centre which we have been talking about these past years all ready built with only some minor repairs and a clean up needed to pro vide one of the best recreational centres in ontario our next visit to the hall was last thursday ev ening when the recreational council held a business meeting there what a change greeted our eyes in intervening weeks teen town had been at work and the building was once again taking on signs of life bro ken windows had been replaced plastering repaired the debris of stage scenery removed and a gradual met amorphis was changing the old lady back into a fresh young girl again one wall gave an idea of the color scheme cream with maroon trim the beautiful brown stained ceiling needs no retouching pigeons are being evicted and mr newman s office in the tower room will have a false ceiling to reduce the excess head room which is unnecessary in modern buildings future plans under the leadership of mayor emery thomp son teen town hall will be playing an important role in community life before the summer goes by the young folk are aiming to have the hall in shape for op ening the end of june they are planning an old fur niiufe drive a housetohouse campaign to pick up any discarded furniture whch could be used to outfit the hall they are planning on dances for fund raising to supplement the fifty cent halfyearly membership fee the local drama group have indicated their de ire to use the stage for rehearsals and plays and to them will fall the task of replacing the old sets and back drops the girls are making window curtains and mr newmans art classes which will start soon will take care of mural decoration markings for badminton courts are still there and perhaps we shall see a revival of this popular game which has been absent from geor getown for some years what you can do there still seems to be misinformation about the financing of the recreational program in town and where the money is to come from the town council has seen fit to guarantee payment of the director s sal ary by a grant from public funds this grant covers only the salary which was all that was astyed by the recreational council the rest of the money must come from two sources fund raising projects and public subscription to date several donations have been re ceived from organizations firms and a few individuals and some 75 was realized from the high school must cal concert other than this no other finances are avail able to meet current expenditures or to help pay off the cost of last winter s juvenile and midget hockey the bank deficit at present is somewhere around the 300 mark the amount of money needed is not enormous where other communities ask fa tens of thousands to build and equip a new building this is not necessary here but money is needed and small donations from many will help to make the program bigger and better virsi financial hurdle is to clear up that 300 deficit and allow a few hundred dollars more for current expenses the recreational program embraces such things as the o b a juvenile ball team as well as the numerous midget and juvenile softball and hardball teams now operating certain equipment is necessary for this and must be ourchased there will be certain expenses in connection with the town hall renovating supplies to buy forrt and hobby classes the recreational council is considering a house- tohoua carjvm for these funds yotrxlonf have to wait for tbatl any donations you care to make now will be acknowledged in the columns of the herald and jwll cejtainlbeapprecjated return to utah
