I I I I I t 10 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, September 4,1985 Section Two Riding Program Successful for the Handicapped By Pat Pcntland Hoskm Stables, located at ' Blackstock are proud of their flourishing riding program for the disabled. "It all started seven years ago with an organization with a very long name. It's called the Durham Region Horseback Riding for the Handicapped Association." Shirley Cane, owner of the stables managed to say in one breath. "They were looking for somewhere to start their program. And we found each other." "Our school ponies are very special," Shirley added. "Gentle and patient. They have to be." Most of the kids have favourites and like to ride the same pony every week. Eight ponies are used for the classes and don't mind a bit as laughing children are lifted from wheelchairs to horseback. The program runs every Wednesday, while Thursday evenings are left open for the C.N.I.B. (Canadian National Institute for the Blind.) Volunteers assist with the rides, providing encouragement encouragement and physical support where necessary. "We make riding fun here. And at the same time develop muscle tone and coordination. coordination. The program's been a tremendous success. We have around forty children and teenagers in our special classes." Shirley instructs a number of the children personally, coaxing them to strive a little harder, reach , farther than they imagine Derek Drumm, the Easter Seal Society's "Timmy" demonstrates his skills, aided by volunteer, Brands Montgomery. they can. And they can, and do. Parents may walk alongside the ponies, and volunteers help with exercises. Lessons continue year round. Outdoors United Way Profile in a grassy paddock during summer; or in the roomy indoor arena when the cold sets in. "We keep the costs to the parents down by organizing a yearly ride-a-thon. This year's date is set at September 21st." Shirley expects around forty riders to participate. "There'll be a breakfast of muffins and coffee to get everyone warmed up. Check points along the twenty-five kilometer trail and a lovely supper afterwards." For further information about the ride-a-thon, or the riding program call Hoskin's stables at 986-5558.

Income Tax and Related Accounting Services 118 King St. E., Suite 2 Bowmanville, Ontario L1C1N4 DRINKING AND DRIVING Reading the local newspapers newspapers over the month of July made me feel quite angry. Several accidents had occurred in the Region where innocent people had been killed by drivers who were later charged with Impaired Driving. Nothing the driver can say or do will be able to make up the loss to grieving husbands, wives, parents, relatives, and friends of those killed. Drunk driving is the fourth leading killer in Canada today, and the number one killer for people under the age of 30. Statistics show that every day in Ontario, alcohol is involved in the death of at least one person and the injury of 81 others on our streets and highways. The toll in human misery and suffering is beyond calculation. All of us have to recognize that driving a motor vehicle (and this includes snowmobile, snowmobile, motor boat, and airplane) airplane) is a privilege and not an inherent right. It is a privilege privilege that carries with it a substantial responsibility. Nobody has the right to take chances which endanger human lives and other peoples property. Let's face it: the car you drive is potentially more dangerous than the gun I carry. We have to be aware what terrible weapons of destruction our motor vehicles can be, and drive them safely. Consuming alcohol is going to greatly " effect our driving ability - we have to realize this - and then do something about it. What can we do? First, we should set a good example to others, especially young people, showing restrained drinking habits especially when having to drive. Second, when serving guests who are going to drive after leaving your place, lake responsibility for them and moderate their consumption accordingly. Third, refuse to ride with a driver who has been drinking NEWCASTLE YMCA DAY CARE/NURSERY SCHOOL 3 Edward St., Newcastle Offers a licenced program for Children 2'A to 5 years of age.

The best policy of course is if you are going to drink - don't drive. It has been proven that driving is affected at less than half the legal, blood alcohol limit. Most affected is the driver's ability to attend to too many things at once - like steering, speed control, watching for signs, other vehicles and pedestrians. pedestrians. If you do decide to drink, limit yourself to one drink (one drink equals one bottle of beer or one and a half oz. of liquor or five oz. glass of wine) per hour or less to allow your body the time it needs to burn off the alcohol. Caution: Remember, alcohol affects everyone differently. One drink per hour may be too much for you (especially smaller persons, inexperienced inexperienced drinkers or when taking drugs). Remember life is priceless, and it can be snuffed out so easily in a motor vehicle accident. By our actions and by our words we must do everything we can to impress on drivers of all ages the seriousness of the risks they run by driving impaired. P.S. Some insurance facts to keep in mind. If you are convicted convicted of a drinking-driving offence: 1) You are not covered by insurance for expenses jncurred in relation to your car, medical, surgical, dental, chiropractic, hospital, professional nursing and ambulance service. In addition addition occupational retraining and rehabilitation are also your responsibilities. A drinking-driving conviction also exempts your insurance company from providing any loss of income assistance. 2) You, not your insurance company, are liable for any costs charged against you that exceed your maximum coverage. coverage. 3) If you wish to drive again after your period of licence suspension is completed, completed, your insurance rates will increase by an average of 50 percent upon first conviction, conviction, and additional 100 percent percent for each subsequent conviction. conviction.
