T Six-year-old Beaver Jonathan Sarsiat (above) doesn’t appear to be feeling too secure as he’s passed hand-over-hand down a line of fellow Beavers. But it was all in fun. The "Human Zipper" relay race was just one of several events that entertained about 50 Terrace-area Beavers from eight colonies during a season ending “Beaveree" at Rotary Park last Sunday. All in all, it was a fun day of food, pop and games thai ended with only a few minor stomach aches and a lot of good memories. . Conventions under canvas? The Terrace Public Library can breathe a sigh of relief. It’s just possible that any competition to their expansion project caused by the proposed community recrea- tion/convention center has lost some of its drive. The city is buying a $35,000 tent. Somewhat like a miniature Saddle Dome in appearance, it’s 20 feet high, 60 feet wide and 80 feet long. And according to alder- man Danny Sheridan it has room for up to 800 people. Of course, no one on council has said this is our community center, but at about one percent of the estimated cost of building one, it could be a good buy and might last for years. The tent idea has had obscure mention in council before but its actual purchase fell through the _ cracks of an in-camera Commitice _ of the Whole report after the pur- chase was approved. Why ‘in-camera? It’s difficult to explain. . Sheridan said something about it being an adjusted item handled in ' gn- in-camera budget adjustment meeting that had to be in-camera because the adjusted figures on the adjustments hadn’t been adjusted yet and weren’t available. If you need a better answer, ask city hall. On the plus side, though, a com- munity-sized tent in our unpredict- able climate could be useful. According to Sheridan, for example, the sides are removable and by leaving one end open it can be set up against the band shell. cali or write our gallery today.
