And the Jewish Information Service began operation;
Fred Dexall, who had partial vision until age 28, is now 34. He was born in Vancouver and went to Jericho Hill School to Grade 11 when he transferred to Kitsilano High.
He has attended extension courses in the arts but hopes eventually to complete his community services certificate with night courses at Douglas College.
He sees this job as an opportunity to^ get background in working for an agency, while providing an important service.
in April he was involved in a volunteer workshop where he "picked up on human relation skills I learned: in college along with the social service program."
He says his upbringing was very natural and he was not over-protected.
He thinks he may have been the first blind child to attend Camp Miriam where he went every summer from the age of ten to 18.
Canada, said Dexall, has "^what I consider the best eye ward in North America. The doctors were very helpful."
Dexall has had Scallie, a beautiful five-year-old golden retriever, for three years.
1 n order to learn to: work with Scallie Dexall attended a "tough month's course" at Guide Dogs for the Blind in San Rafael, California, where
Scallie was born. They worked everyday from 5 a.m. to 11 p;m.
Dogs such as Scallie are contributed to the Guide Dogs association by the 4H Clubs of California. They are highly trained before a companion is sought for them.
Dexall said he leads a very active life. His hobbies include ice-skating, cross-' country skiing, five pin bowling, fishinglind hunting.
A favorite activity is tandem bike-riding.
He belongs to the CNIB Discus Service club and the Nordic Outdoor Blind club.
Classical records are a passion with him and he hascol-^ lected some rarely-heard music among his large record collection.
So if you need to know where to find the kosher butcher, Jewish activities for the children, a kosher home for the student, the times of services at the corner shul or language help for immigrants phone Fred Dexall at 266-3774.
Until sometime in June Dexall will be on duty from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays. Later the hours will be extended to 4 p.m. and the service will be available on all week days.
