TERRACE —On Sunday,

Jan. 25, the Skeena Valley

Snowmobile: Club held a
Snowarama on. Bornite
Mountain to raise- funds
for the disabled children
of British Columbia.

There were approx- -

imately 50 snowmobilers

who participated in the

100 . kilometre course.
They travelled from
Kleanza Creek Park up
Bornite Mountain Log
Haul Road and on past
Kleanza Lake and return,
The last leg of the course

had to be travelled twice

by all snowmobiles to
make up the required 100
kilometres.

The- Snowarama . was
chaired by Grant Bowker,
a job well done. Thanks
Grant, Earl. Larsen: from
the club had coffee and
hot dogs ready. and
waiting for everyone at 25
km of the run. The Lions
Club also had chili and
hot dogs on the grill at the
end of the run to feed the
enthusiastic and some-
times hungry and cold
snowmobilers.

Some of the women
members of the club who
donated their time to the

_Snowarama and also took

part in the ride up Bornite
Helene
Sharon Fell,
Bonnie
Robb from CFTK Radio

De Jong,

Station, and other women
too numerous to mention,
but greatly appreciated.

Rick De Jong, Robert

Parr, Dwayne Anderson

and Ken Gibson were the
Rovers on the course in
case of an accident or
breakdown. A good job

was well done by all four

members.
‘The club has pledges of
$9,700. This could only

have happened with the

help of the businesses and
other fine people from
Terrace and Prince

Rupert, who, were. more’

than generous with their
donations. All the news
for this time, will be back

with more from the club.
