l6The Barrie Examiner Wednesday Nov 24 I976 est Need for Change in recreation By RANDY MCDONALD Examiner Sports Editor Be aware of the need for change Not only in the handling of recreational resources but in an approach to the concept of recreation Those involved in the recreation field have known for some time the need for coordinated and cooperative approach to handling the problems connected with an increasing demand on recreation resources The role of recreation has changed Theres more time devoted to it now and more money than ever poured into recrea tion And like the example of mushrooming minor hockey progcrlam is having its share of pmblems coping with the de man In the end it all boils down to finances Barrie certainly could use third indoor icesurface and needs an Olympicsize pool Lets not forget the need for improved services to senior citizens or adequate opportunities to allow the cultural aspects to prosper Recreation is now considered as including both cultural endeavors as well as the common notion of physical activity It has been raised from nice way to spend free evening to playing vital role in the community Theres more time now for leisure and so the demand for more facilities and more ac tivities grows The role of the municipal department of recreation bet mes clear to provide the community with the widest choict and maximum diversity of recreational opportunities consistent with economic feasibility In other words do the most it can with the money it has One week ago 150 delegates representing the recreational services in the community met in the first of two sessions of the Municipal Recreation Conference They came up with grandeur list of areas they felt deserved first consideration Heading the list as matter of interest was the need for swimming pool followed closely by another indoor ice surface The citys recreation department under director Gary Stoner is using the conference to consult with the various services to determine their recreational interests and needs identify the resources within the community to meet those needs and as Mr Stoner says to work cooperatively with the various agen cies volunteers and service clubs to insure united co ordinated and complimentary recreational program Looking back on the first session we remember Mr Stoner telling the delegates that it was clear that we now must recognize and identify other resources than those of city hall within our community if we are going to be successful in meeting all of the recreational needs Im sure are going to come as result of this conference Stoner was adamant when he said that the purpose of the con ference was not to make the recreation department any longer or to give it any more control over recreational resources in the community Nothing could be further from the truth than the image of department bent on talking over everything he said Purpose of the conference is to identify that which must be done then try decide as conference what resources are available in this community and what financial resources are available to help reach our goal Were here as community forum to identify recreational services that are required he said Mr Stoner brought up the underlying reason for the need for such togetherness in the recreational field The municipality is now saying to us as department be aware there are limits going to be placed on our spending Be aware that you must make better use of the resources you now have and that you must limit your staff additions Ir Stoner said that the role of the municipality in providing recreational service is to insure that opportunities are avilable to all and to help promote active participation in meaningful activities during their leisure time To meet this mandate the recreation department has to more than ever look to the resources available to us in this communi ty he said Stoner doesnt consider this cop out by the recreation department but more of realization that the only way the needs of the community can be successfully acomplished is through ourjoint efforts One couldnt help but leave the conference with wait and see attitude Would this just turn into another bull session Would it be waste of time The windup session Dec could answer these questions Stoner made it clear last week that he wanted to listen to what the forum has to say Whether you agree or disagree with past present or future policies of the department its spending practices the con ference is looked upon as the foot in the door towards coming up with plan to greater serve the communitys recreatiOnal needs One criticism voiced was that too much money was being spent on the provision of sport facilities and not very much in cultural areas One of the prime reasons for this conference is that your department and your municipal government is being pulled in so many directions in respect to what is being expected in the provisions of leisure services by the municiï¬ality Stoner said He said there was certain feeling of elplessness in not being able to respond to all the demands by the various segments of the community Dick Capling who holds masters degree in education and teaches Sociology at Mohawk College Hamilton was responsi ble for delivering the keynote address and summing up the discussion group session at the first night of the Recreation Conference Mr Capling noted wide variety of opinions and great at tempt to both listen and come to grips with matters relating to services and facilities He said there appeared to be good balance between people representing their own interests and also paying attention to the overall need and concern for the community He said the pattern of ideas seemed to centre around such areas as the need for improved planning procedures and regular involvement of the community in the recreational plan ning process We shouldnt be oneshot effort but this kind of community involvement should take place on regular basis he said Capling called for an overall recreational development plan for the community on which is clear and understandable He also said we must find ways to improve the dialogue between the city and the services organizations and between recreation service organizations and citizens Capling broke down the findings of first nights session into categories such as one dealing with special groups and special barriers to recreation services such as families the disabled and the blind Location of activities facilities transportation as well as several points concerning need to be better informed and hav ing better understanding of the needs of ethnic groups and im migrants was another category There weas category having to do with attitude change and new approaches to take effective action said Capling He went on to say there were points made about the need to focus on typically Canadian programs in our approach to recreation We certainly need better understanding of recreation leisure and of the art that it can play in our lives Capling conclu ed his summation by sayin We need to find better ways to use the facilities that alrea exist to inform each other about their existence after finding ways of sharing these Bell nips Newmarket Borden 62 Darren Rumble had four goals to lead the way singles going to Mark Owens and Peter St Laurent Bell
