RECREATION FACILITIES IN WESTON: ”Orwwleh;oh and churches are well blessed with wonderful facilities for recreation, including craft rooms, auditoria, gymnasia, playgrounds and music rooms. .. * ‘-‘i\o 'l'luaieiul Offices provide accommodation for the Weston Power Squadron, the Chess Club, Men‘s Club, Senior Citizens, La Discotheque, Community Choir and the Weston Rod & Gun Club.

May we first qualify our comments by stating that, as a municipal recreation agency â€" we are concerned with all forms of recreation within the community. Such recreation can, and does, represent both private and commercial â€" public apd any other form of community activity that can be termed recreation in the best sense of the word. Our area of concern is being able to adâ€" vise newcomers to Weston on the recreation facilities that exist in the community and how tMey can get to participate. The Tennis Club of Weston is a private club, with its own officers, constitution and byâ€"laws. The tennis courts and clubhouse are located at the Weston Arena Grounds on Lawrence Avenue West at the Humber River. Two of the hard courts are equipped with overhead lights for night games and the Executive is planning to erect a new, modern clubhouse to provide for year round instructional and social program. The Tennis Club, in coâ€"operation with the Recreation Comâ€" mission, conduct a special Summer Course for school children in teaching the fundamentals of tennis and have arranged for proâ€" fessional instruction for any new members and others who wish to learn this wonderful game. We regard tennis as a first class recreation activity, since it can be played and enjoyed by people of all ages and, once learnâ€" ed. can be enjoyed for the rest of one‘s active life.
