- After 34 years of con-
tinuous service, members
and other volunteers are
replacing the clubhouse
facilities at Terrace’s
Skeena Valley Golf and
Country Club.

Numerous additions
and renovations have
been made to the struc-
ture since it was of-
ficially opened on June
6, 1952. Early this year,
the membership decided
the building had come to
a stage whereby more
changes and ‘repairs were
no longer feasible.

With major improve-
ments already in action
on the course itself, it
was deemed necessary to
tear down the old build-
ing and erect something
that could handle the in-
creasing influx of golf-
ers.

in the amount of
$66,303.00 was an-
nounced in July.

In issuing the grant,
government minister
Grace McCarthy pointed
out the $66,000 repre-
sented one-third of the
- estimated costs, eX-
cluding materials on
hand. Donated labour
was calculated at $6 per
hour for grant purposes.
/ The Club had to sub-

mit detailed cost esti-
mates to Victoria, and
provide evidence the
organization has man-
aged to raise a substan-
tial amount of the rest of
funds required.

The remainder of the
cost is coming from a
mortgage addition of
$50,000, plus volunteer
labour, the sale of club
share certificates at $250
each, and a ‘‘buy-a-
brick’? scheme at $5 a
brick.

holder to a 20 percent
discount on annual fees
for the next three years,
and full voting privileges
in club operations.
The ‘‘brick’’ scheme,
which had drawn strong
interest from members
and green-fee-ers alike,
allows you to signa brick
on the board in the cur-
rent building. Each brick
is then permanently
finished and will be in-
stalled in the new
building.
Construction ' co-
ordinator Dick Graff
says the building has the
most functional design
for the money. ‘‘There is
literally no wasted space
and we are able to use a
lot of items we have on
hand,’’ Graff says.

Graff went on to ex-
a plain they’ve included in-
put from the architects

Starting last February,
the executive stressed to
members that the ancient

building had to be re-7
placed. Continuing |
problems with water, :

sewage, lighting and
heating added up to the
fact it was slowly falling
apart, and sinking more
funds into repairs was
like flogging a dead
horse.

Immediate steps were
taken to seek finances to
construct facilities in the
neighborhood of one
quarter of a_ million
dollars. Insufficient
funds in the club’s cof-
fers meant they had to
seek out a government
grant for the major por-
tion of the expense.
