McKenzie and friends Tania McKenzie and Dorothy Smith (who also sang a ditty), dances by the Kitsumkalum Dancers and the Vicki Parviainen — Dancers, Filipino dancers and Irish dances including audience-partici- pation folk dancing. The lively and festive occasion was highlighted by pifiata-breaking for the children. Two pifiatas were filled with goodies and hung from the ceiling. The first pifiata, a crepe paper-decorated globe built and decorated by Cassie Hall stu- dents and at a “pifiata bee" at the Terrace Public Library, was for youngsters age seven and under. They batted at it, two hits cach, until it burst and spilled a plethora of wrapped candy for which they all scrambled. The second globe, a crepe paper clown, was reserved for children eight and over. Con- structed of very thick papier maché, it took more effort to break. Finally, organizer Manny San Luis stepped in and stepped on it to free the candies. The annual potluck dinner is the Terrace Multicultural Association’s main social event of the yeat, intended to bring together Terrace residents of all cultural back- grounds in a commonality of food, folk arts, conviviality and com- panionship. Farmer’s Market to get paid power connection TERRACE — The Farmers’ Market seems to be moving in the direction they desire. Permission was recently granted by city coun- cil for a temporary metal frame and canvas shelter to be erected on city property at Emerson and Park during the Farmers’ Market annual business season. And now the city has also agreed to install an elec- trical power service and flood light at a cost of about $3,000. The city does expect a little in return for this latter amenity, however. Negotiations to recover 50 percent of the cost from the Farmers’ Market Association are currently underway. As far as the annual tight bill is concerned, city admini- strator Bob Hallsor says the city will likely pay it themselves. He explains that the site is in close proximity to George Little Memorial Park and the gravel surface is suitable for a variety of activities. The Terrace Review — Your guide to the community
