Sunday, July 28 at the R.E.M. way,”’ she said, ‘'I felt really shocked,”’ Crowning night also saw Heather Bretfeld named First Princess with Nikki Schafhauser — she also won the judges’ prize far most improved — as Second Princess. Deborah Ann Dodd was chosen as Miss Personality, Laura Flynn as Miss Talent and Andrea Arnold as Miss Effec- live Speaker, During the three-month run- up to the big night, contestants received instruction in public speaking, etiquette, modelling and makeup skills as well as participating in various public events, beginning with a gar- bathon in April. © O’Brien says the best thing about the pageant was the change she noliced in all the contestants from the first day they met to now, (We) became more open,”* she explains. ‘‘We were kind of acquainted (before), but it became much better as it went along,” That’s how Shelley O'Brien ‘felt when her name was an- O'Brien, 17, was crowned Lee Theatre. ““[ thought, no ears the crown She became a sonieiant because she thought it would be an adventure, and now, ‘I just , want co go out and explore and get to know people. I want lo go out and seize life.” She’ ll have lots of opportuni- ty to do just that in the coming 12 months, for while the pageant is over, the duties of Miss Terrace and the others have just begun. One of her first am- bassadorial tasks will be to represent the city at next week’s Miss PNE contest in Van- couver. ‘I can’t wait,’’ admit- ted an enthusiastic O’Brien: While there, she will appear in the PNE parade, a! ihe open- ing of Playland and take part in a group talent show put on by contestants. Back on the home front, Miss Terrace and the princesses will attend various community events throughout. the year, be present at receptions for visiting business peaple and. work with senior citizens. O'Brien says the Miss Terrace Pageant is good because of the skills it teaches, and that it is more than just a beauty pageant, “It’s not just beauty,’ she says. ‘“Et’s an enriching ex- perience.’ While. those involved in Riverboat Days aré now set- tling back to enjoy a weil- earned break, the tempo. is beginning to pick up for organizers of. this year’s Skeena Valley Fall Fair, Aug. 31 and Sept, L. “Things are hectic at the ‘moment,’ treasurer Ada Gillard said last week, but it seems certain all the work will pay off with 4 ‘fair. that is — once again — bigger and better than ever. However, while this year’s _ events include both establish- ed favourites and newcomers, Gillard em- . phasized the success of the fair depends to a great extent on volunteer help.
