JUNE II, 1975 TERRACE BAY NEWS PAGE 17 Senior citizens are among our most important resources. This is what Ontario is doing to recognize them. "It's the time of our lives" Senior citizens prove over and over again that their lives can be both crea- tive and productive. Senior Citizens Week focuses attention on their contributions and needs -- pro- moting and publicizing services provided by the Ontario Government to senior citizens, and encouraging development of recreational and social services in communities across Ontario. For instance, lots of seniors are volunteering to help other senior citizens --driving them to appointments, helping them to fill out income tax returns, teaching them, sharing experiences with them. Did you know that there are many senior citizens' physical fitness pro- grams that you can join (including Senior Citizens' Olympics organized in some Ontario communities)? Did you know that seniors themselves have developed many clubs and centres for their own special interests, including just about everything from gardening to world travel? With 1000 senior citizens' clubs here in Ontario, as well as 90 senior citizens' centres, there's bound to be one in your community. What's more, there are many special interest clubs that aren't limited as to age -- camera clubs, social clubs, study groups, a whole range of subjects that people who are retired now have time for. Through special grants and other assistance, older people are finding the opportunity to go back to school and university --to develop new talents and concentrate on new interests. For specific information about pro- grams and services available to senior citizens, the Ministry of Community and Social Services has just published RESOURCES FOR SENIOR CITIZENS.
