Underlining that prediction, DeWalle said last year the program had fielded more than 40,000 calls provincially, Community Services Terrace and District Community Services Society has a new manager, Michael Beausoleil who began work last week, teplacing Detlef Beck. The society runs more than 15 social assistance and other programs through provincial contracts worth nearly $3 million. Beausoleil’s a teacher and education administrator by training and came to Terrace two years ago after living for 10 years in New Zealand. He worked for a kindergarten associa- tion in Auckland. “My background has been mostly in education. Of 20 years of teaching, 14 have been in the administrative end of that,” said Beausoleil last week. - Beausoleil is listed as an interim replacement for the top job at the community services society, says its chairman, Lynda Bretfeld. That's because the society board is still working on a plan to restructure the position to have somebody employed who is also skilled in financial matters, she said.

Calling all Celts The Irish Cultural society is offering a warm-up for St. Patricks Day again this year with its second annual Celtic Night, to take place on Saturday, March 16, The evening’s entertainment will follow the same, highly successful format as the inaugral event with Celtic music, amateur performances, old-time waltzes and pub singing. And, of course, says Danny Sheridan, there will be lots of dancing. “Everybody will be doing Irish dancing profes- sionally by the end of the night, guaranteed,” he promises. Last year, he recalls, the dancing was greeted with such en- thusiasm that there were times when every one of the 150 peo- ple attending the event were on the floor! ‘For that reason the number of tickets are being limited to just 160 this time to ensure there’s enough room for the dancers, Sheridan advises people interested in joining in the fun to get their’s early because the demand is sure to be strong. ; . He also sends out a call to any [rish, Scottish, Down East or Newfie fiddlers, musicians and singers ‘‘who are dying to _perform on March 16”* to contact him at 635-9511 (days) or. 635-5327 (evenings). ; ae ; Those same numbers are the ones if you want tickets.
