Trade show

TERRACE -- Organizers of the
Minerals North "92 conference
and trade show want to continue
the concept,

They're thinking of combining
a trade show with forestry weck
next year,

"If we did that we would keep
the trade show fresh with a few
different booths. It would give
people a different perspective,”
said city economic development
officer Peler Monteith last weck.

The combined conference and
trade show aspect at the civic
centre brought about a_ natural
flow of interested people, he said,

Organizers estimated that 2,500

people visited the April 24 and 25
tradc show,

There were nearly 90 registered
participants at the minerals con-
ference which looked at various
developments and issues in the
north,

Montcith said organizers were
happy with the conference
lurnoul although the number of
people from the lower mainland
was below expectations.

"The state of the economy cut
the number of people from Van-
couver," he said,
