Jaycees - Major Projects I think most residents of Terrace and the surroun- ding area feel that the Jayeees are doing a good job both in furthering the aims of business (through the Annual Trades Fair) and providing en- | tertainment in the nor- ‘thwest. The Commercial Hockey Tournament held earlier this year was the largest held in western - Canada. The Jaycees also sponsor wrestling. The Jaycees will be | continuing with these projects and hopefully expanding them. However, in order to do this we will have to increase our membership. It is news to no one that many residents have left town. This has hurt our membership. Plus many of our long serving mem- bers have been transferred by their employers. - PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE, dt you are male belween the ages of. eighteen and forty ‘would you be in- terested in helping the Jaycees help terrace? What do we stand for? What do we do? Well these are questions that would take too long to answer here and now.

This will be an annual event on our Jaycee Calendar. The tournament is the largest cash tournament of its kind in Western Canada. We offered $2700 in prize money and many Terrace residents said it was the best hockey they have seen in some time. Teams participating came from all over the province. Teams from .Alberta have heard of this tournament and have Terrace Kitimat 4648 Lakelse Ave. 238 Gily Centre indicated a desire to enter next year. This is non-stop hockey at its best and provides en- tertainment for the citizens of Terrace, Hockey Patrol The past few years we have worked at the. Terrace Centennial Hockey Games. Our involvement at these games includes taking tickets, . ushering, working the timekeeper’s. ni box and goal judging. Other Projects . There were seventeen minor projects that we also ran through the year. These projects help an individual in learning how to become a leader, an organizer and most of all how to work with people.
