BRINGING THE WOODS TO THE ARENA. skited hands in bucking, axe

throwing, choke setting and all the other various forest trades converged on the

Skeena Valley Fail Fair from as far away as New Zealand to compete in Loggers’
Sports. Organizers say the range of events will be expanded next year.

More events next year

Once again this year, the Terrace
Downtown Lions Loggers Sports
at the Skeena Valley Fall fair was
a@ great success. Twenty-seven
competitors (12 Local, two from as
far away as_ Bellingham,
Washington, one from New Zea-
land and one from Sayward on
Vancouver Island) participated in
the 20 events. The crowd was
responsive and the loggers put on
a good show for all to enjoy.

Organizer Sharlyn Palagian says
they’re already thinking about next
year’s events, including one or two

designed especially for people who.

have never done it before. "Then I
could join," says Sharalyn enthusi-
astically.

They will definitely be increasing
the number of open events in next
year’s competition. And they will
be talking nicely to Copper Can-

yon Sal to convince him to return -

to Terrace and dance on the top of
a spar tree, "like he did in the old
days".

Organizers of this yeat’s events
in the Lions Loggers Sports thank
all the local businesses and com-
munity members for making it
such a success.
