In our community there are no facilities for indoor or outdoor recreation with the exception of basebaîl. We have no trained leaders to give guidance in any of the in- door sports. We have some who can help in basebaîl and hockey, also in music. We think that if the young people in the commun- ity would start gome kind of pro- ject to work for, something be- sides themselves, it would help a lot. We also feel that the aider people are a bit different in giv- ing leadersbip and guidance to these young folk. After our discussion we had Mrs. Sonley from Alberta speak ta us on the Larger School Unit, also on the Municipal Health Plan of Alberta. This was real interesting as we are planning sometbing along these lines for Ontario. We are baving a picnic on June 30, at the school. This is subscription time!
