a EY | Trade show gains stature Cha TERRACE The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, February 14,198 A13 & DISTRICT mber of Commerce Building Blocks of the Community as the place to be in May BOOTH SPACE at the Terrace ‘and District Chamber of Commerce’s trade show this spring has sold out. All of the 80 spots were spoken for by mid- January, the first time it’s happened so quickly since the chamber took over the trade shaw four years ago. And, there’s a waiting list of five businesses and organizations poised to take part should any of the signed up enterprises cancel. ’ That kind of response makes trade show chairman Skip Bates happy. “Its an indication of how the show has been accepted and it’s an indication of the theme this year —— Spring. A Fresh Start to a Fresh Sea- son,’” he says. “We're gelling a good response from the businesses such as garden shops and the like who want to take advantage of the theme.’’ “Having something different that appeals to the public should result in a big crowd draw,” Bates added. One measure of enthusiasm for the trade show is noted in the 20 First-time businesses who have signed up this year. This'll be the fourth year the chamber bas un- dertaken the three-day event. It used to be rum for years by the Terrace Jaycees until that organization disbanded in the late 1980s. As wilh past chamber shows, the Vancouver firm of Superior Display has been contracted to pul up the booths and arrange the lighting. That makes for a uniform and pleasant ap- pearance, said Bates, He’s looking forward 10 entertainment being organized by Marilyn Kew of Sight and Sound once more. In addition to draws sponsored by individual businesses, the chamber is putting on a grand Prize as an added inducement for those who at- tend. The dates this year are Friday, April 26 to Sunday, April 28, One display will be that belonging 1o the Terrace-Kitimat Airshow Society. which is bringing in the Snowbirds and other aircraft the beginning of May.
