TO:
Members Oro Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee
FROM:
Bob Gregory, Chairman
RE:
Chairman's Year End Report
INTRODUCTION:
As 1993 draws to a close I felt it was important to reflect
back on the past year's activities of the Advisory Committee.
The 1993 monthly minutes reinforced for me the pleasure I have
had in chairing the activities of so many dedicated and
hardworking members. It occurred to me, that in having the
distinction of being the last ever Oro Parks and Recreation
Advisory Committee, we could all be proud of our accomplishments.
8
In addition to the regular monthly meetings, each and every
member contributed unselfishly of his/her time to promote and
improve recreational services in Oro Township. I remember the
long and sometimes controversial discussions regarding the
committee's mandate which was undoubtedly motivated by a sense of
wanting to do more than may have originally been expected.
Much of the strength of the committee can be attributed to
the professional and competent work of Debbie Broderick. Her
responsibilities have steadily increased yet she somehow manages
to accomplish each and every task. I hope in some small way we
have assisted and supported her in her endeavours and she will
forgive us for adding to her already busy schedule.
I would also like to thank Linda Aitkin for her assistance
in often making clarity out of confusion and finding just the
right words to sum up a half hour discussion in one sentence.
To the members of Council who regularly attended the
meetings, I wish everyone could have the opportunity to see the
kind of dedication and support which they have given to the
Committee's work. Despite differing strategies, I feel we have
worked well together towards our common goals. When elected
officials take such and active role in the hands on work it is
rural politics at its best.
(8
Finally, I would like to express my appreciation to the
appointed members who responded above and beyond the call of
duty. Whether it was attending subcommittees, organizing dances
or trudging through Oro's countryside you have set a high
standard for future committees through your efforts. Many
citizens of Oro have benefited from your dedication and interest
in the well-being of your community.
, ,
REVIEW OF 1993 ACTIVITIES:
8
1.
Committee Mandates
Although the Committee mandate can be expressed in a few
written words the discussion regarding this matter set the tone
for the vast increase in the committee's activities. In 1993 the
Advisory Committee became proactive in its approach which is-,
reflected in the numerous activities in which members became ~t
engaged.
2.
Parkland Survev
Throughout the past year the Committee members have been,\.
involved in a survey of all parkland in Oro. This has involved
numerous volunteer hours in an effort to establish priorities~for
future development and assist in meeting the recreational needs
of Oro residents. This task is now nearing completion and should
form a meaningful foundation for park development in the future.
3.
Communitv Hall Boards
Through the efforts of the Advisory Committee two meetings
were held in 1993 with representatives of the many Hall Boards in
Oro and Medonte. This initiative has bred new life into the
Community Halls and discussions are now underway to form a
Community Hall Board Association.
(8
4.
Communitv Park Develoement Policv
The Advisory Committee has attempted to foster a partnership
arrangement with smaller communi ties interested in d~vel,oping
parkland. A policy of sharing costs with local community
associations has been approved by Council which clarifies the
method of obtaining recreational services.
5.
Ice Users' policv and Formula
As demands for ice time at the Arena outgrew the
availability the Advisory Committee initiated the developmen~ ~f
a policy to ensure children and local residents were given
priority. In addition, a user-formula was established Ìnr\()rder
to ensure a fair distribution and maximum use of ice t'ime.;
6.
Dav Came
A sub commi ttee of the Advisory Commi ttee completed:)~ureview
of the Oro Day Camp in order to recommend changes which;,~i1J;
continue to enhance this important recreation program.
7.
OMRA Conference
8
Oro has been successful in obtaining the OMRA Conference for
r
. .
..
8
1994 and members of the Advisory Committee have taken a
leadership role in the conference planning process including
hosting a very successful hospitality suite at the 1993 OMRA
Conference in collingwood.
8.
Budaet
:: ~-
For the first time, this Advisory Committee has had an
active role in reviewing the Parks and Recreation Department
budget.
9.
SuDDort to Local GrOUDS
Through the efforts of the Advisory Committee several local
groups have been supported in their endeavours to provide better
services. Insurance coverage for Community Hall Boards has been
clàrified, The Hawkestone Dock received necessary repairs and
assIDstance has been given to such groups as Rails to Trails.
lO¡é
Proarams and Activities Flyer
8
Programs and services have expanded dramatically in Oro and
the Advisory Committee has recommended the creation of a flyer
for distribution throughout the Township. Hopefully this
init~ative will come to fruition through the efforts of the 1994
Advisory Committee.
11.
New Baseball Diamond
Thanks to the efforts of the Oro Lions Club, a new baseball
field was constructed at the Arena site during the past year.
12.
Additional Activities
Many members of the Advisory Committee have participated
directly in planning and/or consultation on the delivery of
programs and services such as community dances, a Motorcycle fun
run, and the March Blues Festival to name a few.
SUKKARY AND RECOKHENDATIONS:
8
Under County restructuring the new Parks and Recreation
AdvisoryjOommittee for Oro-Medonte will be quite different with
only two members of the joint Council being appointed. Although
this may provide broader volunteer input and influence it will be
important that all members of council be kept informed of the
impo'rtaace of recreational services to the well-being of Oro-
Medont:é 'I'i'es idents . Somet imes elected of f ic ials do not recognize
recreation as an essential service when faced with all the other
demands for taxpayer's money. It is incumbent upon the volunteer
committee members to ensure recreation is given a strong voice in
the political process.
