Terrace Standard, Wednesday, May 20, 1992 — Page C3 Craig hits the roof in track opener ' Tt bad all the ingredients the organizers of Terrace Speedway’s opening day could have hoped for, A good turnout of racers,. hot lapping and drivers tuming the event into a contact sport, ' But stealing the show May 10 was Major Craig in car 777 who fashioned a spectacular run down the stands straight... on his roof. That earned him the "honour" of first roll-over of the season but ‘he-was not the only casualty of the day as the pace proved just too. much for a couple of other vehicle. Double winners on the day in- cluded Blaine Kluss in A Hobby, Dan Thickett in B Hobby and Dave Bruce in B Street, cach tak- ing both the Dash and Main. Also picking up two apiece were Dave Reinhardt (A Strect Main and Jamboree Street) and Jean Pearson (C Hobby Heat and Main. A total of 25 cars took to the track including visitors from Burns Lake, Jeff Giesbrecht made the long trip worthwhile with a win in the A Hobby Heat while fellow Laker Warren Hart took the checkered flag in the Jam- boree Hobby, ~ Two new faces at the Peaks There’s a new team at the coaching helm of the Terrace Peaks Gymnastics Club -- Kris Fairless and Scott Hanley. Fairless is a local product, having started her gymnastic career with the Peaks at age six and eventually reaching Provin- clal B level before retiring from competition. She acted as a junior coach for the club at both the recrea- tional and competitive levels as well as being involved in sum- mer camps. Fairless next headed for Kitimat and the post of. head coach ofits Dynamics club. She returns to the Peaks hav- ing just completed the two year coaching course at Seneca Col- lege, Toronto. She graduated with a Level [II coaching certifi- cate, Like the rest of her family -- the Peaks building was named the Ed Fairless Memorial Gym- nasium «- she was an active and dedicated club member when last here, - The club is therefore pleased with her return and anticipates her: expertise and enthusiasm will prove an great asset, For Scott Hanley, Terrace is about as far away from home as it gets. Born in Goose Bay, Labrador, his family later moved to Cornerbrook, Newfoundland. Involved in gymnastics for the past 11 years, his interest was sparked by his brother’s pur- suit of the sport, When his brother - he still trains with the national team -- began - gymnastics, Hanley asked if he could help out at the club. Tt was there he got hooked on the idea of becoming a profes- sional coach. Like Fairless, he attended. Seneca College which offers the only program of its kind in North America. He graduated last year with a Level II certificate and is also a Level TV judge for men’s gymnastics. . Describing Hanley as full of new program ideas, the club says he wants to encourage its members to reach their poten- tial whether at the recreational or competitive levels.

Uplands girls led the school’s charge to victory by sweeping the grade 6 doubles, taking the top two spots in grade 7 doubles and finishing first and third in both grades’ singles competition. In doing so, they contributed 28 of the school’s final tally of 35 points. Uplands winners were Judith Casey (grade 6 singles), Rosa Mikaloff (grade 7 singles), Cheryl Heppner and Beth Stanley (grade 6 doubles) and Roxanne Chow and Mette Liz Berg (grade 7 doubles). First place singles finishes by Pheonix Diep in grade 6 boys and Ryan Orr in grade 7 boys helped the Centennial Christian schocl clinch second place. Veritas provided the other event winners as Chris Brown and Roy Hernes combined for the grade 6 boys doubles title while Nick Butjas and Kosta Kolias cinched the grade 7 event. However, strong performances by its grade 7 boys enabled Thornhill to edge Veritas for third spot overall.
