OUR OLDER Terrace
athletes really rocked the
Seniors Games in Kamloops
earlier this month, bringing
home a total of 32 medals
from the provincial event,

More than 2,700 competi-
tors descended on the city
for the mect. That’s the
highest number of athletes
ever for the games.

“There would have been
2,701,” says Bill Bennett —
who, at 88 would have been
the oldest competitor fom
Zone 10. ‘But J just
couldn’t make it.”’

Bennett was hoping to go
for the gold in Kamloops
after a successful Victoria
Masiers Meet in August.
There, he won gold medals
in shotput, javelin and dis-
cus, and he was on his way
to a repeat performance in
Kamloops,

“My sultcase was packed,
but I coulda’t make it be-
cause ol bealih reasons,’’ he
says. “‘But I don’t care if
they have to carry me next
year, I’m going."”

However, one of Bennett’s
teammates from the Victoria
match did make it to the
games. Esther Postuk enter-
ed five events in Kamloops
