NEW YOUTH CENTRE AND VILLAGE OFFICE FOR SHEUNG SHUI

*****

RESIDENTS LIVING IN AND NEAR KAM TSIN VILLAGE, SHEUNG SHUI, ARE URGED TO MAKE GOOD USE OF A NEWLY COMPLETED VILLAGE OFFICE AND YOUTH CENTRE.

THE APPEAL CAME FROM THE DISTRICT OFFICER, NORTH, MR PETER JOHNSON, TODAY (THURSDAY) WHEN HE OPENED THE KAM TSIN VILLAGE OFFICE AND YOUTH CENTRE. HE POINTED OUT THAT LOCAL PEOPLE HAD EXPERIENCED GREAT INCONVENIENCE IN FINDING VENUES FOR GATHERING BEFORE THE CENTRE WAS BUILT.

THE CENTRE WOULD GREATLY HELP PROMOTE VILLAGE AFFAIRS AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, HE SAID.

THE PROJECT WAS PLANNED BY A COMMITTEE CHAIRED BY THE KAM TSIN VILLAGE REPRESENTATIVE, MR HAU YIU-CHUEN.

THE NORTH DISTRICT BOARD HAD CONTRIBUTED $10 000 FROM ITS LOCAL PUBLIC WORKS VOTE FOR THE $198 000 PROJECT.

THE UPPER FLOOR OF THE TWO-STOREY BUILDING WILL BE USED AS OFFICE AND CONFERENCE ROOM, WHILE THE GROUND FLOOR WILL BE THE RECREATION CENTRE.

FACILITIES INCLUDE TABLE-TENNIS, CHINESE BILLIARD AND CAMPING EQUIPMENT FOR 50 PEOPLE.

THE VILLAGE OFFICE AND YOUTH CENTRE WILL SERVE ABOUT 8 000 PEOPLE LIVING IN KAM TSIN VILLAGE AND IN THE VICINITY.
