" Recreation programs: could be cancelled contributed by - Etalne Parmenter . The Terrace Parks and ~ Recreation Department will un- fortunately have to cancel some of its quality programs set up for this summer, unless registration _ picks up very. quickly. Here are some examples. of such ‘endangered’? programs: Films and Story-Telling Fantasia and its French Version, Fan- taisie de films et d’histoires, are each planned for three classes next week (week of July 15) for ages 10-14 years old. The films, mostly short animations and many winners of several awards, have been catefully selected. With the help of stories, games and crafts along with the films, each class explores a “‘hidden’”’ theme which the participants are asked to guess. The Swallow’s Suite (or Chez Chickadee) is also all ready to go. It is a bird-house building program for children 9-14 years old. They will par- ticipate in design planning and will learn: good working habits. It will run for two weeks, three classes per week, starting July 26. So: far, some of our programs have gone ahead with enough participants, and we have already got a lot of positive com- ments from both participants and parents. For example, the Mud-Pie Dilemma was a suc- cessful pottery course, given by Janet Harris to a full class of . children 5-9 years old, in which . everybody Was continually busy City officials off to Whistler a TERRACE — Following the ‘unanimous adoption of a mo- tion by alderman Bob Cooper, expenses will be covered for elected city officials and their spouses who attend the 85th an- nual Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) Conven- tion to be held in late September at Whistler Mountain.

The Birds of Summer program is also doing well, start- ing off last week with a tour in- cluding telescope viewing of two spectacular nests, a bald eagle’s and -an osprey’s. Registrations are still being taken for Birds of Summer (for any number of trips) but people should hurry because there are only a few openings left. Other interesting programs are also starting up in August. For details on any of our: pro- grams, please consult our. Recreation Brochure or phone us at Terrace Parks and Recrea- tion at 638-1174.
