PAGE 10, WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1984, WHITBY FREE PRESS w SPORTS WEEK Olympians amongst those honored by town for e ffo rt s The "creme de la creme" of the local sports world turned out ini force last Wednesday night to be honored by the town for their achievements of the last year. The Town of Whitby's A4th annual Sports Recognition Night was presented with a slightly dif- ferent format this year as the athletes and their coaches were treated to a full course sit-down din- ner priorto the festivities. This year guest speaker was Mayor Bob Attersley -himself a former local sports celebrity. In his brief address, Attersley encouraged his mostly youthful ýÎ audience to strive for excellence in whatever ac- tivity they choose. He also paid tribute to their coaches and other aduit volunteers for their efforts on behalf of the youngsters. "You have made the young people in our com- munity better citizens," he told them. "We have a community where we get people involved. " "There are so many things for our youth to become involved with, " the mayor added. Attersley also had nothing but praise for three Whitby youngsters who are fighting their way to this year's Olympic Games which will be held in Los Angelos in a few weeks. Himnself an Olympian (Attersley played on the silver medal winming hockey team entered by Canada in 1960 games), he told the crowd there is a "different and special feeling of pride" associated with going to the games. Attersley also briefly mentioned the recently submitted consultant's report recommending that $523 million be invested i the expansion and im- provement of the Iroquois Park Complex. "Council wiilhave to consider it carefully," he said, adding that the best that can be hoped for is the staged implementation of its major recommen- dations. Attersley also hinted that many local sports organizations wil be unhappy with the outcome.
