2 Terrace Review — Wednesday, March 5, 1986 Council drops | ski hill study TERRACE — The municipal council, acting on a recommendation from the Recreation, Parks and Library Com- mittee, has decided that further investigation into operating the Kitsum- kalum ski hill is unwar- ranted. Council began con- sidering the possibility of running the ski hill after the present operator, the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, decided in January to determine the future of the deficit- ridden operation by Residents to be queried on legalized casinos. A questionnaire in- tended to assess the at- titude of Terrace resi- dents and businesses toward legalized gam- bling will be circulated in the near future by the Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce. The local Chamber will be taking the survey at the request of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce as part of a province- wide study into the tourist-attraction poten- tial of gaming houses and casinos. The infor- mation obtained will be used to determine where, if anyplace, such estab- lishments should be located and under what controls and: regulations they would operate. Council Terrace council recent- ly joined other B.C. municipalities in re- questing a transportation subsidy for northerners. The reply, entered as in- formation at Monday's council meeting, in- dicated that Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources, Pat Carney, considers the subsidy too difficult to administer. Alderman George Clark later moved that council go on record as Opposing the social ser- vices tax on long distance telephone calls, claiming . that the tax discriminates against northerners. The motion carried, and ad- ministration was in- structed to write letters to the appropriate agen- cies, es _ Stiff Whites Egg whites will not beat up stiff- ly if there is even a particle of egg yolk inthe whites; if the beat- erisnot absolutely clean and per- Feclly dry or if there is any mois- tureor grease in the bowl: public vote. Kitsum- kalum mountain has been plagued by poor snow conditions during the past several seasons, and it is a virtual certain- ty that the referendum will close it. At the Feb. 24 council meeting Ald. Bob Jack- man said, ‘‘] have a fear that if the Regional District withdraws its support of Kitsum- kalum, Terrace could be left without a ski facility."’ Ald. Fred MacDonald retorted, ‘*Then send people to Smithers on transit jel busses.” MacDonald later re- marked that if the municipality were to undertake an investment in ski operations, ‘‘I’d rather see us take an equity position on Shames,”’ a reference to a proposed private ' development for a major ski facility at Shames mountain, Jackman countered that the municipality already supported rec- reational facilities which are unprofitable, citing the swimming pool and ice arena.. Ald. George Clark pointed out that although the municipali- ty can supply water for the pool and ice for the arena, it would be unable to provide snow for the notoriously dry moun-. tain. In a vote the council decided to curtail further study into the matter. If the regional district referendum goes against continued operation of ‘Ski Terrace’’, the pres- ent skiing season could be the last for Kit- sumkalum. Family group formed by Philip Musselman TERRACE — Sunday for Family is a group of people who feel that Sunday should not be a shopping day. This group supports Co-op and Woolworth’s through a petition that now has over 300 names on it. These names rep- resent people who will no longer shop at local stores which have elected to open on Sunday for business. According to Marjorie VanVugt, Sunday for Family is basically con- cerned about Sunday be- ing a day of rest, ‘“‘The employees no longer have this day of rest for worship or play,’’ she ex- plained, ‘‘and we feel that this is not fair to We have it all! Everything you require for comfort & healthy living * Halr-care needs * Cosmetics » & Dental needs * Hand lotlons * Perfumes x Cold & flu ramedias * Decongestants * Cough syrup om * Troat lozenges . * Chest rub f* * Baby-care needs... . and a fully qualified prescription service it’s all at Terrace Drugs . 3207 Kalum, St. Terrace 635-7274 = those families.’’ For more information ‘on Sunday for Family, phone Marjorie Van- Vugt at 635-5764, or Lauretta Lepp at 635-3838.
