This season we hope to have an Instructor from our town assist and téach those interested in the game, Our idea of leaving. the courts unlocked this year was vetoed because it was felt that there would be a possibility of bicycle riders ruining the courts, Instead each member is to be issued with a key in order that he or she may use the court whenever the urge confronts them, 'Since our prime motive this year _ will be to swell the ranks of tennis players we felt that a 'small membership fee as opposed to a large one would help us in The fee for the coming season will be 50¢ per member which will cover the cost of your own p-rsonal key. Member- ships and keys may be obtained at the office with the only restriction being that eveyone desiring to join the Tennis Club must also hold a recreation member- ship. Through the year we will be trying to promote tournament play with places like Schreiber and Marathon which will serve as an incentive for all to improve It was mentioned that we might be getting a number of Schreiber people joining our club. i There were some at the meeting who thought that the courts could use a general cleanup and paint job, and quite rightly so. Since the courts are to be maintained this year by the Recreation Dept. we will do our utmost to have the courts in top shape, the practice boards repaired, and it is hoped an entire new paint job. Night lighting was another dream expressed and it might very well become a reality in the future if interest in Tennis warrants it. (Cont. on next col.)

Camp field in shape for Soccer, For an undertaking of this nature we would need a great deal of volunteer labour, so if those interested enough under these circumstances would leave their names at the Recreation Office we will carry on from there...Incidently... Marathon has a very strong Soccer team who have been asking for competition. 0-0-0
