CHIMO CLUB The Chimo Club, at their regular March meeting, were elated to find their membership has risen to 82, with still other senior citizens intending to join. This meeting marked St. Patrick's Day, by everyone wearing a shamrock and enjoying an old-fashioned tea party, convened by Ida Krause. Peter Globenski, Regional Liason Officer, Citizenship Branch, Secretary of State, was the guest speaker, intro- duced by Lester McCuaig, who presided for the meeting. Mr. Globenski prefaced his address by remarking that it had been a delight -ful surprise to enter the room, fill- ed with laughter, and discover that the CAUSE was simply to be together in friendship in an association formed of three towns! Continuing seriously, Mr. Globenski, had many suggestions to offer many particularly pertinent to the wide area he covers-from Kenora to White River. One main objective is to encourage cultural groups and support organiza- tions in founding difficulties, when possible. The travel and exchange program, is an interesting project by which groups of Senior Citizens can visit other places, and meet other clubs-with far- es, lodging paid for, dependent on the circumstances of those raking advan- tage of the trip. The New Horizion program can only be used by senior citizens, who will 'be given assistance in varied ways for the programs-always of their chos- ing. These are timed to extend from 4-12 months but exceptions can be made to extend the time. The main purpose of this program is to maintain the abilities and interest of senior citizens in their own com- munities-teaching or sharing their skills. And, he emphasized, the suggestions for such programs must come from senior citizens, and, they must be in control as directors. Allowance is made, when necessary, for secretarial and financial assis- tance, and employment of consultants. Projects, in community interest are almost limitless and grants available should be explored. A lively question period followed his address and Mr. Globenski delight- ed his audience when he concluded with an Irish Blessing-most of the crowd repeating it with him! Ida Krause reported on the gener- ous response by business firms to provide prizes for a bingo planned to augment the meagre funds of the club, and the 30th of March was set as the date. Mrs. Krause also announced the club's first social evening for March 24th. Donations for the lunch were quickly offered and those requiring rides were asked to call Ida. Mr. Ed Cavanaugh, of Terrace Bay, volunteered to assist Inez McCuaig in press and public relations work. Katie Verdone read minutes and treasurer's report and selections from The Voice-the Provincial citizen's magazine. Mr. McCuaig was authorized to sel- ect a committee to inquire into the possibility of securing a permanent club room, who presently meet in the town hall by courtesy of the Munici- pal Council. continued page I8
