For more than 18 months, Scott and Steve McEachern (Rebel DJs) have been seeking the right to conduct teen dances in the township after Scugog Council outlawed such eventsin municipally-owned buildings. This directive followed a con- frontation in February, 1992. outside a teen dance at the Ma- sonic Lodge ip Port Perry. The Rebel DJs were not operating the dance on that night. But local DJs feel they are paying for the incident. According to Ward 2 Council- lor Marilyn Pearce, Scugog Council recommended teen dances should net be allowed in the municipally-run Latcham Centre without the supervision of alocal service club or other or- ganization. It also sought to tighten the policies on these F A Native artist Maxine Noel was the featured guest at Native Perspectives over the weekend.

Scott says he and his brother have operated the business for nine years in the township with no problems, but "because of the indiscretion of somebody else" they are being denied the privi- ledge of conducting teen dances. He argues there have never 'been problems during their dances and they have always obeyed the rules and regula- tions concerning security. "We just feel picked on," Steve McEachern says. As a result of the ban on inde- pendently-run teen dances, the Mc Eacherns say they have lost quite a bit of revenue in their hometown. They say their DJ business is quite successful out of town, but is hurting in town. "We lost the ability to profit, but gained the ability to lose," Steve McEachern says. As a result of this, the pair are | prepared to launch' legal action concerning the matter. They | claim they had an agreement with the township concerning hall rentals in 1992, but this agreement was breached. A considerable amount of rev- § enue was lost as aresult of this. For the past 18 months the brothers have attempted to set- tle the matter in a mature man- ner, says Steve, including meet- ings with township officials. But they say this has been to no avail. They have asked for another . meeting with council,scheduled for late August, to discuss the [i matter again. If they are not satisfied with the outcome, Scott says they will seek legal advice. © Steve says rumors in the past that the Rebel DJ Services are no longer in business have hurt the brothers as well. But they are hoping to put all this behind them in handling the matter. "We still exist. We want to {i come home and we are going to follow all legal avenues to do {§ 80," says Steve. ; w PRODUCTIONS ATC x W GEORGE % JONES Special Guest Star Anita Perras LIVE IN CONCERT at the Lindsay Central Exhibition Grounds FRIDAY, AUGUST 13th, 1993 at 8:00pm & COUNTRY 105 EM. presents The Legendary Lo Tickets Tickets available at $25.00 - * Circular Sounds, Port Perry Stadium Seating * Meat Merchant, Uxbridge $30.00- UCO Gas Bar (K-Mart Plaza) Lindsay Field Seating Rain or Shine - ---- on i -- ----------------------..
