"A Family Tradition for 128 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, June 28,1994 - 5 Council turns down request for weekend music festival Plans for a large music festi- val in Scugog in July have been rejected by council. Carl Debaros, of Uxbridge, was proposing a weekend music festival on a parcel of land on Scugog Line 12 in the township for the middle of July. The three-day event would feature a number of bands, as well as oth- er activities such as volleyball, croquet, and a crafts market. Admission for the event would be donations to local food- banks including the Daily Bread Food Bank, as well as the local food banks in Scugog and Uxbridge. But council turned down the decision for the weekend bash fearing "a dangerous precedent" could be set. "I'm very concerned about the legal liabilities," said Ward 2 Acute care study From page 1 "You're seeing the human side of health care," he told the sponded as it did during the meeting. "We try to provide a human side. We are a very caring and small orienting lion he said. "We go out of our way to make patient input part of the team." When the paper was first re- leased to the press a few weeks ago, hospital officials felt CMH's description of services fell short of providing the full story. But in a revised eopy provided atthe meeting by the hospital, it included a more complete de- scription of the services the fa- cility supplied. Mr. Brown noted this was an" indication the committee mem- pers were listening to the pub- ic. Dr. Bob Allin, chief of staff at the hospital and also a member of the committee, said he was satisfied with the outcome of the meeting and pleased with the input from the community. "In terms of what I personally wanted the committee to hear, they should have heard it loud and clear," he said. Dr. Allin said he is concerned about an erosion of services in the area, and was pleased the community reinforced this point. The committee will take the comments back with it to be used in the preparation of the fi- nal report expected to be pre- sented to the Ontario govern- - in the fall, Mrs. Hessey said. 3 Suitable background. written resume to: or Fax (905) 983-9231 SALES POSITION OPPORTUNITY A growing John Deere dealership in a mixed agricultural area with a large lawn & garden equipment market is seeking to hire a salesperson with This position, for full time employment, provides an opportunity to work for a company with proven track record in a modern work environment.

The councillors expressed concern regarding a number of legal implications including lia- bility for drinking and driving, questions of zoning and polic- ing. But Mr. Debaros, a music pro- duction student at Fanshawe College, ensured councillors the event would run smoothly, not- ing he had already made provi- sions for security and first aid. "I know these events don't have a good reputation, but they're not controlled properly," he said. "If it is controlled and organized properly we won't have any problems." Despite the protests from the organizer, council rejected the proposal. In rejecting the idea, Mayor Hall noted a number of con- cerns, adding it was not in coun- cil's best interests to approve the function.

All proceeds from the week- end go towards lights for the newly-constructed Scugog Cen- tre ball diamonds, located be- hind Scugog Arena. Although slo-pitch, featuring men's, women's and mixed teams, is the focus of the week- end, there will be more than a good game of ball to enjoy. Dancing, comedy and live bands will add to the weekend festivities, as will the annual Scugog Chamber of Commerce fireworks display in Palmer Park. Friday night will see well- known band Pink Cadillac, which has performed in Scugog before, perform at Scugog Are- na. The sounds begin at 8p.m. and admission is $10. Saturday night a two-hour Yuk Yuk's comedy night will be the focus, followed by local band "Chaser" at 10 p.m. Admission Saturday night is also $10. Tickets for both nights are still available at Port Perry Printing, Irwin Smith Music Limited, Circular Sounds and Winchester Arms. Sunday's focus will be the fi- nals of the tournament at Scu- gog Centre and the lakefront di- amonds. An awards ceremony Fields of Dreams will be held at the arena, con- cluding the weekend.
