Following years of re- search and with the as- sitance of several spir- ited groups and _ indi- viduals, the township of Schreiber is pleased to present to you, a book- let entitled --"Township of Schreiber HERI- TAGE." This special edition was produced as a pro- ject sponsored by the Ministry of Citizenship and Culture, Employ- ment and Immigra- tion, along with the Schreiber Parks and Recreation Department. The book was intended to describe through per- -sonal records and photos, the heritage of _ the town of Schreiber. It also accents the 99th birthday of Schreiber and as well, the Bi- centennial. The book will enlight- en its readers on the past, the present and future endeavours that the township of Schrei- ber hold near and dear. It highlights the reli- gious, social and econ- omic background con- cerning the town it- self, and will provide the readers with a unique history of the town and its generations of de- voted citizens. Chapters of the book refer to settlement and development, the Cana- dian Pacific Railway, Sir Collingwood Schrei- ber, 'prospecting and mining in the area, churches, businesses of Schreiber - both past and present, as well as various municipal mat- ters ... just to mention a few. The booklet of- fers a complete break- down on the Reeves and Councillors of Schreiber Wednesday, February seco 15, 1984 township - dating from the initial year of 1901 to present day 1984. The book also acknowledges the many individuals who were responsible for the gathering of in- formation and other necessary duties that are required in order that such a splendid publication could be producéd. The Township of Schreiber Heritage Booklet is available from the Schreiber Recrea- tion office, the Township office and the Schreiber Public Library, for the minimal cost of $3.00 each. But if you wish to purchase a copy of this book, you had better act quickly. Only 500 cop- ies were printed and they're selling like 'hot-cakes'. The "NEWS" will be sponsoring a Schreiber Heritage Trivia Quiz each week for the re- mainder of 1984. Each week we will be choos- ing a piece of trivia from the booklet and will be asking our readers to search through their book and come up with the correct answer. One winner will be chosen each and every week, who has the correct an- swer to the Trivia Quiz, and that person will be awarded with a 'sou- venir prize' compli- ments of the Township of Schreiber. So grab your 'hot off the press' Heritage booklet - watch the "NEWS"" for the Tri- via Quiz of the week - try to answer the question correctly - and win your souvenir prize Vol. 19, No. 7 Terrace Bav i Schreiber: Terrace Bay BILLETS NEEDED - POT 2Wo Ontario for Jamboree participants During the past few weeks the "NEWS"' has been promoting an up- coming event known as "The North Shore Rec- reation Directors 4th Annual Pee Wee Hockey Jamboree"'. But a lot of people out there don't know what a '"Jam- boree" really is. It's a rather unique event - an event that is designed to promote participation, sportsmanship and most of all, fun. Pee Wee hockey play- ers from the surround- ing communities of Na- kina, Geraldton, Red Rock, Terrace Bay, Marathon, Horne- payne, Wawa, Chap- leau. and Arnprior will be meeting in the host community of Terrace Bay, to play in mixed teams and just general- ly, get to know one another. The players from each community will not be playing as a team, but instead they will be mixed into teams when they arrive in town. Another big differ- ence with a "Jamboree"' that is not evident in a regular "Tournament" is this - in each game, after two periods (with equal-ice time for all players upheld by the 3 minute ruling), the third period will be a series of skill tests. Each team will commence with ten points and will then be awarded additional points for winning the first two periods of the game. Points will also be awarded for the better scores in the skills test. But the real downer will be the fact that points will also be deducted for any penalties which are received by the players of that team. The entire concept as mentioned previously, is to foster the idea that hockey is fun, it's a team effort and requires par- ticipation throughout the entire game. Terry Bryson, Rec Di- rector for the town of Terrace Bay said, "This is not to be confused with a Hockey Tourna- ment. A Jamboree is very different, and win- ning is not the key ele- ment. Every youngster who takes part in this weekend event is class- ed as a winner. Instead of being awarded with trophies or medals, each individual player will re- ceive a souvenir - some- thing that he can take back with him, to re- member a fun weekend of hockey."' Over 140 youngsters will be taking part in this special fun-filled week- end, but there is one serious problem that stands in the way of having fun. Billets are needed for an additional 80 youngsters. The only thing required to be a host family for the week- end of February 24- 25-26, is this: For the Friday and Saturday night, the boys need a location to rest their weary bones; For the Saturday and Sunday - they need a good nourishing break- fast. And that's all that is needed. You won't see them otherwise. If you are interested in sup- porting this event and its participants, please contact either the Rec- reation Office, Ted Wil- son or Barry Harper as soon as possible. The Terrace Bay Rec office would like to know if enough people will be supplying billets, and will then in turn supply - the list to the concerned communities. If you are able to supply this much needed service, please jet these people know. The boys will also be treated to some special events in addition to their hockey games. All day Saturday, indoor as well as outdoor events are scheduled to take place around the Rec Centre and these will include a "2 x 4 A Go-Go Marathon", novelty continued on page 6 Councillor Mike Cosgrove with the township's newest publication. -- HER Fy é ITAGE Winter Logo Contest The next time that you find yourself sitting in front of your doodling pad, staring off into space, think about this.

Welcome - Bien Venue by LYNNE BADGER On January 6, 1984, Bill and Anne Marie LeGrande arrived in Schreiber and two days later Bill conducted his first service as rector of St. John's Anglican Church. Bill and Anne Marie are not new to the North, having both taught at the high school in Manitouwadge, and both were anxious to return to this part of the country. Their last place of residence was Lon- don, Ontario where Bill attended Seminary at Huron College and ful- filled the requirements for a Master of Divinity Degree. For one and a_half years, he was affiliated with St. Michael and All Angels Church which he found to be a unique ex- perience. The parish was largely of a non- Anglican background, a kind of "melting pot" of denominations. The ser- vices there were mostly contemporary as oppos- ed to the traditional use of the "Book of Com- mon Prayer' and the parishioners all shared new ideas and experien- ces from their varied backgrounds. Bill also sang with a group at the church called "The Michaelites."' He spent another year at the Church of the Resurrection in London which was a very tradi- tional "Prayer Book" congregation. Bill and Anne Marie have been married for seven years but just where they crossed paths remains a mys- tery. Anne Marie is from Cheticamp Cape Breton Island and is proud of her Acadian heritage. She is fluently _ bilin- gual. Bill also has a good command of the French language, having been raised in New Carlisle, Quebec and on the Gas- pe. The couple have no children yet, but feel that Schreiber would be a good place to raise them if they were so blessed. Bill and Anne Marie are settled in at the rectory and Bill has be- gun teaching a Religious Education course in the public school in Schreib- er, basing his course on the writings of C.S. Lewis. The concepts of Heaven, death and the Christian lifestyle are related to the scriptures through stories. Until Bill is ordained as a priest in the spring, he will be unable to celebrate the Holy Eu- charist but that will not prevent him from pur- suing his other goals. . He hopes that within the parish, participation in the Lay Ministry will be increased not only in the actual services, but in everyone's daily lives. In the communities, he hopes to encourage a greater co-operation among the various churches, a kind of Ecu- menical unity. Judging from Bill's parish ex- perience, we can prob- ably expect a few inno- vations and interesting services. Schreiber, Terrace Bay and Rossport bid you welcome to your new home.
