WIUTBY MRE PRESS, WEDNESDAY,ý AUGUT 28,1991t PAGE 15 Moe BokPrnts neede nWibBookli Block Parents and volunteers are needed as the new school year approaches. President of Block Parents, Whitby-Brooklin, Linda Drake empasiesthat the need for Bloýck Parents is greatest in Brooklin. «Vie don't have an y people going to the achools in Brooklin,» she says. Drake blames misconceptions for people not becoming inÎvolvéd withi Block Parents. '«Some ,'people' think it costs money or'they have to solicit when they join. There's no cost and no canvassing.» Block Parents only have to Il out an application and be'a pro- ved by Durham Regional Polce (anyone aged 16 or older in a family). At tËeir homes, Block Parents place the officiai 'Blockc Parents' sign in ýtheir windows The signs indicate' there is refuge during an emergency situation such as child harass- ment, an attempted kidnapping or even if a youth is being Upicked on." Volunteers for Block Parents go into elementary schools to alert students about the ýpro- gramn. There are approimateIr 800 to 900 Block Parent families in the Whitby-Brooklin area. Block Parent meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month. The first meeting is scheduled for Sept. 12 at the municipal building. For more information cal Linda Drake at 723-2933.
