you: Golfers” who are not participating in this
weekend's junior-senior tournament at the Skeena_
Valley Golf Course might play the Prince Rupert
Centennial Course. Located at 523 9th Avenue West,
‘not far from downtown Prince Rupert, this course
offers an interesting ‘and sceni¢ challenge. The club
pro Moe Hays claims the course is in good condition
‘despite the civic employees strike earlier this year.
The course was started back in 1967 as the city’s
“centennial project, with play beginning in the’ fall of.
- 1969, It was constructed largely on reclaimed land. In
the spring of 1977, the club, through volunteer labour,
constructed a lounge and expanded the small snack.
bar into an exceptable eating area.
The course has some interesting holes, such as
number three, 4 par four, which is only 367 yards but
. leaves the average golfer with a difficult blind second
shotto a tricky, slanting green. The ninth is a par four,
408-yard hole, which starts from ‘an elevated tee and
tapers off to a’green well guarded by a creek just in
front, The back nine finish with what should be two
‘easy par five holes; one 456 yards and the other 427
. yards, However, you are usually tired by the time you
- reach these holes and end up not fairing as well as you
- would like. 7
"“‘The-front nine stretch 2,360 yards with a rating of

“par 34 While the back side is a par 36 over 2,899 yards,

‘totalling 5279 yards for the eighteen.

‘holes, Membership fees are $220.00 annually, not in-
“eluding a first year‘initiation of $100.00. The club has
- approximately 300 registered members at present.

The course record is held by Barry Miles who shot 66
back on September 10th in 1978 while playing in the
‘Mens ‘Club Championship,
