The Riverboat Days concept Is a theme to which buildings could be “fancied up” in the old style. The con- cept might be pleas- ing to the tourists. I'm sure half a block in the community business sector could be set up to at- around the country; like themes pro- moted in communi- tles such as White- horse and Dawson Creek. Something like that holds a lot of merit. Rick Giroday We could write a whole thesis on that topic. You can’t Im- prove the scenery, the location, nor the weather or the peo- ple. Those situations are out of our con- trol. The only thing that can be improved is the town itself, and that’s another story. tract cllentele from: The Terrace Review asked: How can we make Terrace look better?

The main streets are bad enough, but the back streets are horrible. School students could be issued plastic bags and en- couraged to patrol sections of town. Perhaps a campaign could be organized in the spring and fall using school class- es and various youth groups in the com- munity. Plans are now under- way to replace an estimated 20 million seedlings lost as a conse- quence of the cold weather which occurred in November, Forests Minister Jack Heinrich has announced, ‘‘The cost of replacing these young trees will be $3.8 million. If we do not take corrective action, our planting goals would be set back substantially in both 1986 and 1987.
