Al6 Terrace Review _ Wednesday, July 25, 1990

Rack up
one more
effort to
beautify

On a sunny Sunday morning
in July, the Terrace Beautifica-
tion Society were up to their el-
bows in dirt to enhance the
downtown core of Terrace.

In the 4600 block of Lakelse
Avenue, society members
George Clark, Betty Campbell,
Janet Coburn and Cathy and
Cary Rodin mixed soil into
mush in their 30 planters in front
of the Inn of the West, with the
help of hotel manager Rod Ver-
strate,:

The plants had been grown
and donated by Pacific
Regeneration Technologies In-
corporated (formerly Thornhill
Nursery), and their horticul-
turists Shannon Edwards and
Steve Kiiskila, were on hand
with expert assistance and super-
vision. P.R. Technologies,
which purchased Thornhill
Nursery two years ago, also has
nurseries in Vernon, Chilliwack,
Nelson, Prince George and
Campbell River as well as a
Tissue Culture Lab in Chilli-
wack to grow the many shrubs
they need — last year they ex-
perimented with poinsettias
which were so successful that
they expect to repeat the project
this year. They have been active
supporters of the Beautification
Society in its efforts to brighten
up the Terrace district.

An area of concern has been a
few acts of vandalism to the
planters, and the society has
written to Terrace city council to

atrange a meeting as soon as
possible. The members would
like to discuss the possibility of
drafting an anti-litter bylaw to
create a capital fund from which
the interest could be used as
reward money for information
leading to the conviction of per-
sons responsible for acts of
damage.

The society would like to dis-
cuss with council future plans
and cooperation. Preventive
measures to discourage growth
of weeds around poles and in the
cracks of cement are being iden-
tified, and other means of

- enhancing the city are also being
considered.

“Any help would be ap-
preciated,’’ said Clark, “from
city ‘council, businesses or

. volunteers anywhere.”’

If you don’t know
what’s going on,
things go on
without you.

Instead of creating gratfiti, @ group of Terrace youngsters decided to create some art recently. With a little help from the Terrace
and District Community Services Society, they painted murals all along the temporary walkway by the Happy Gang Centre on Kalum
Street. This rather dreary comer is now a little brighter because of their work.
