In a recent article published in ‘Recreation Reporter’ David Andrews, Provincial Hockey . Development Coordinator, poses 1e question, "Hockey evelopment and municipal recreation, what can we do for each other?” — each other being the local minor hockey associations and municipal recreation departments. It would seem, he states, RECREATION _ CHATTER that in “many areas both organizations find them- selves on a collision course and this isusually a result of demand for facility time vs supply, programming factors and costs, However, he has noticed one less tangible factor and this is the attitude of some departments, that minor hockey is a necessary evil. Mr. Andrews goes on to say that this attitudeis a natural N.W.

If these are valid con- cerns, then he feels the result should not be simply dive with it’ and ignore these concerns because minor hockey associations do not fall within the recreation department’s sphere. He is not suggesting massive interference in the. operations of the associations but more input into hockey development programs within municipal areas. The input of hockey development programs into a community not only benefit the experience of the participants rough hockey ut also can be of great value in reducing the con- cerns of recreation supervisors, particularly in the area. of philosophy towards amateur sport and the area of effective ice utilization. Just how can this be achieved? Does the problem exist in this form here? The article ponders numerous questions and if we are to maximize the use of facilities then maybe an overhaul of the minor hockey system is at hand. I would tend to agree that there should be some con- cern at over-emphasis on competition which in itself produces undue pressures on participants who should ° be more orientated at that age to enjoyment and participation. Poor utilization of facilities sounds rather severe but upon examination would it not be possible for recreation departments to offer teaching to skate programs and maybe hockey skill improvement with qualified instructors, Would this not then produce far more. competent hockey players better’ able ‘to “handle a: t competitive’ “environment” once they have more adequately developed their skills? Maybe it is time for minor hockey associations to sit down with recreation departments and come up with a more meaningful and enjoyable program without too many pressures too early. oss Ps: You have a case of tris- kaidekaphobia if the number’ 13 makes you uneasy! IE LID. 3° g\ar Over 1,000 spectators enjoyed the 4th Annual ‘Terrace Figure Skating Club's Ice Carnival over the weekend. Saturday evening over 600 fans observed the festivities while Sunday saw an audience of about 500 people. e theme for this year’s carnival was Movie Memories and the event was highlighted by guest skaters, Greg Ladiet and Lisa Trahan of the Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver.

Babes in Toyland was next with Sherry Dahl as the toymaker. Laurie MacKay and Rod Mielnichuk skated as a pair and the Junior Dance Class were the trees. Dolls and toy soldiers were played by the beginners. The guest skaters then put in their first performance, receiving a rousing round of applause. They s ted two different dances and had the whole building buzzing with excitement by their smooth, near perfect act. The next memory saw the Beginner Girls come out as puppets and Pat Mielnichuk as Jimine Cricket as selections from Pinnochio were depicted. Michele Volkman and Marilyn Watmough South Pacific was the next movie featured as the Junior and Senior Dance Class played dancers in grass skirts and the sailors were skated by Seniors. The Good Ship Lollipop was the next memory wit! the Junior Girls performing The sink cupboard in your kitchen is the most dangerous place for your cleaning supplies; keep them out of the reach of toddlers. Never store poisonous, caus- tic or inflammable substan- ces in such containers as pop bottles or jam jars. The Wizard of Oz was the Jast movie memory before intermission with Anita Bjorgaard as Dorothy. The Lion was played by Cindy Geeraert, Tin Man by Lynn Patterson and the Scarecrow by Christie Volkam. Penny Hogg and Wanda Watson were wit- ches. The first half of the rogram ended with a utiful performance by freelance professional, Deyvre Coutts. Selections from the Pink Panther opened the second half, with Jennifer Daumont playing the pink feline and featuring the Senior skaters. The next movie memory saw Donna Grass as Gigi. Donna Wilkinson played the littie girl and Intermediate skaters were the French waitresses and artists.
