SPARA

~SPARA stands for Saanich Peninsula Agricultural
and Recreational. Association.

It is the latest addition to a: long list of conglomerate
— words by which a particular identity is established.

Let us hope SPARA will become firmly fixed in the
public mind soon, because SPARA has an objective that
will fill an urgent need on the Saanich Peninsula.

-SPARA has been formed to provide a permanent and
central recreational centre for all of the people of Sid-
ney, North Saanich and Central Saanich.

Sidney Rotary Club has provided the spark by the
~ allocation of $10,000 on production of a plan of proven
feasibility. The SPARA committee is confident that itcan
~ present such a plan, and bring. it to fruition as a Cen-

tennial ‘71 ‘project.

-The aim is an ice rink with skating and curling

. facilities.

It is realized that some > may prefer a swimming pool,
- but close study of costs of construction and maintenance
‘have indicated that an ice surface is preferable as a pilot
eS ~ project. For many years the young people of the
Peninsula have had to travel to Victoria for skating,
available only at the most inconvenient hours; there can
De NO: question. as to the need.

- SPARA is. in process. of registration under:
Societies Act; and during ‘the next few. weeks members
its committee will be. meeting. with the mayors and:
inicipal. representatives, the respective recreational.
and Centennial committees ervice Club: executiv es and
the Chambers. of Commerce. —
‘The. support ofall. community: organizations: will ‘be
nlisted; and the. appeal of SPARA will extend to all.

SIDNEY PARENTS’ GROUP

SIDNEY APPROVES GRANT

TO ASSIST 'COOL-AID'

Sidney will continue towards Cool-Aid and Community
Council this year with adoption by municipal council on
Monday of Ald. Wilkie Gardner’s report from the Greater
Victoria Inter-Municipal Committee.

Commenting that the Committee is ‘really tough”’ on grant
applications this year, Ald. Gardner explained that just two
major causes will be aided. An operating grant of $5,310 was
voted to Cool-Aid for its transient houses, (Sidney’s share is

SILL);

the sum of $3,000 went to Community Council with

- about $104 coming from this town.
Ald. Norma Sealey agreed with the grants saying that both
organizations are doing a good work.
