Park Survey The Park Planning Branch Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources is conducting a park-user survey at various pars mis summer. Two parks in the Lindsay District, Dar- lington Provincial Park and Balsam Lake Provincial Park are taking part in the survey. A survey card is given to campers and day visitors based on a predetermined sampling rate. The sampling rate varies for each park. The survey cards ask for basic information such as number of' persons in your party; length of visit, type of parks visited last year, activities done during your visit, your opinion on types of facilities in Provincial Parks, type of camping equipment used, your general comments, etc. You are not required to sign the survey card and all information obtained is confi- dential. / The responses to the survey will provide valuable informa- tion on the type of persons and groups visiting the park, the region served by the park and the activities done by visitors while in the Park. The information obtained is neces- sary to make sure that the park's facilities and programs meet the needs of its asers. The survey also gives you, the park visitor, an opportun- ity to express your opinions and expectations on the plan- ning and management of the parks. Whether the comments are in the form of criticism or bouquets they are all analyzed and appreciated. By assisting us in filling out a survey card you also help furture plans for provincial parks in Ontario. Hunting 1976 September 25 marks the opening of a new hunting season. Prospective new hunters would be well advised to enroll now in a Hunter Safety Training Course as instructors will soon have their classes booked. Persons twenty years of age and under are required to take a Hunter Safety Training course before writ- ing an examination for a hunting licence. This Ministry recommends that persons over twenty years of age and without previous hunting experience also enroll in the hunter safety training programme. Names and locations of instructors can be obtained from the Lindsay District Office. Ten Hunter Examination dates are scheduled for the next month in the Lindsay District. These dates, times and locations are as follows: August 26, Orono, 9 a.m. - 12 noon; September 3, Orono, 3 p.m. - 6 p.m.; September 4, Oshawa, 12 noon - 4 p.m.; September 7, Lindsay, 3 p.m. - 8 p.m.; September 9, Peterborough, 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.; September 13, Brooklin, 3 p.m. - 5 p.m.; September 15, Peterborough, 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.; September 17, Cobourg, 9 a.m. - 12 noon. Examinations can be tried only after making an appoint- ment with the Lindsay District Office. If you are already an active hunter, have a look now for your old hunting licence as you will require proof of previous hunting experience or a certificate from a Hunting Licence Examiner to obtain your 1976 licence. Remember, a hunting licence does not give you permission to trespass; a few days spent now contacting landowners for permission to hunt on their property will not only save you time but will probably result in a much more enjoyable hunt. Friendly landowner - sportsmen rela- tions are most important to maintaining hunting privi- leges in Southern Ontario. The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, August 25, 1976 9 Frank's Variety Win Opener Over Tim's Rent-All On Thursday in the first game of the semi-finals of the Men's Town League Softball at Memorial Park, it was a duel between Bill Cochrane hurling for Frank's Variety and Dick Stata in the lower pictures. Frank's came up with a close 5-3 win. The second round went last night and will continue again on Thursday with two games. 31,582 L.ivng in Newcastle At the latest count, there were 31,582 people living in the Town of Newcastle. The new figures are based on the recent Canadian census s conducted June 1. Mayor Garnet Rickard said at a meeting of the conmittee of the whole last Monday that the figure represents an inçrease of 1000 residents when compared to a survey taken in the autumn of 1975. CLOCA May Develop OldbDump.n Plans are now underway to turn over 31 acres of land in Bowmanville to the Central, Lake Ontario Conservation Authority for parkland de- velopnient. The land consists of the Jackman Rd. landfill site on the Bowmanville Creek. The site has been closed and graded but not yet rehabilita- ted. Conservation areas super- visor, Robert Allen, told a meeting of the committee of the whole Monday afternoon that the authority's plans for the site would include taking over ownership of the pro- perty. The proposed development for the land would take three years and eventually, the, property could be turned over to the municipality for a minimal rental fee.

This will be the last sports car racing sponsorship by the tobacco company that has been associated with racing for 16 years. Apparently they have decided to do their promotion in other fields. The weather was ideal but the crowd was not as large as in former years. Fortunately, because of the new camping regulations and patrols, ere were no incidents such as occurred earher this year when a collision took Place on the track after the racing was over and one man was killed. SKATEBOARDS - We haven't seen too many of them around Bowmanville streets, but it seems that skateboards are becoming quite popular. The Canada Safety Council is a bit worried about them because new models are capable of attaining speeds of up to 35 miles an hour and can become quite a hazard if the people using them don't exercise proper care. PRAISE FROM ENGINEERS - Recreation Director Bud Fanning was telling us that the engineers who are now lu the process of check- ing out the arena in Bowmanville were amazed at the exceptional fine condition and appear- ance of the building, considering that it bas been in use since 1949. would come from the Ontario Government and 50 per cent from contributions from the Durham Region. The site would be planted in suitable trees and shrubs but a report from the Conservation Authority recommends that it should be two years before the site is used for recreation once the planting has been finished. Mayor Garnet Rickard said the site is a little like a wilderness at the present time- but he added "To me, it's an ideal spot for the conservation people to work." The committee voted that Councillors Tink and Cowman meet with the conservation authority to work out an agreement between the authority and the town. They will bring their recommenda- tions to council.
