Parmar, who put in three year stints as both secretary and treasurer, explained the board’s —_ constitution stipulated no member could serve more than eight con- secutive years. However, he added, it also allowed an in- dividual to return after tak- ing the enforced break and he would likely do just that “if Pm not tied up in something else.’ Nirmal Parmar Whether he chooses that route or not, Parmar still intends to maintain his connection with the library, ‘I would really like to be part of the expansion project,’ he said, adding he had told the board he was more than willing to lend a hand in any fundraising efforts it initiated for the project. Describing the work of the past 18 months on the expan- sion as one of the highlights of his time on the board, Parmar said there was no doubt it was needed. “Our circulation has almost doubled over the last eight years,” he pointed out, ad- ding the growth indicated the library was both popular with and meeting the needs of the community, While a marked increase in the range of items carried and a convenient downtown location were in part responsible for the increased patronage, he said much of the facility’s success could be attributed to its ‘excellent staff." As an example of the type of service that kept customers coming back, he pointed to the speed with which requests for - books available only from out-of-town libraries were met. _ Charity golf takes _ adifferent course ' The event may not be recognized by the PGA, but a local . Service club is hoping duffers and pros alike will turn out in force for 2 golf contest planned for the end of the month. The event is the third annual Kinsmen Pub Putt Tour, to take place Saturday, Apri? 28, and while golfers have no need of drivers or wedges to complete the, it does offer the oppor- tunity to hone their putting skills. Spokesman Brian Lindenbach explained the ‘holes’? are located in local hostelries and “exactly like mini-golf.”’ Four- man gather at the first tee (the Inn of the West) at 1! a.m. and from there are bused around the nine-hole course which in- cludes stops in both Terrace and Thornhill. Prizes will be awarded for the best individual and team scores, the best dressed team and the most honest player an teams. _ Although it promises to be an enjoyable round, the event also has a more serious side — to raise money for the fight against cystic fibrosis. Lindenbach said competitors are being . asked to collect pledges and turn them in before teeing off, The Kinsmen hope to collect $2,000 this time, he added, about double the 1989 figure. Entry forms and pledge sheets can be picked up at par- ticipating pubs/hotels but he asked teams to pre-register by phoning him at 635-6316. Warning the number of entries would likely be limited to 20 teams, Lindenbach said ‘‘any more than that and it would take too long to get through it.”’ Eight teams had already signed up.
