SWIMMING POOL RULES HOCKEY LEADERS INSTITUTE To date no one from Terrace Bay has applied to attend the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association Leadership Institute, being held this yeat at the Uni versity of Saskatchewan. Ten delegates will be chosen from the Thunder Bay area to attend the coaches' clinic, and all expenses will be paid for those accepted. APPLICATION FORMS MUST BE IN BY JUNE 30TH AT LATEST. ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN ATTENDING THE CLINIC SHOULD PICK UP APPLICATIONS FROM THE RECREATION OFFICE IMMEDIATELY. DON'T DELAY!! During the first few days of use, it has been noted that some pool users have not been obeying the pool rules. We repeat that these rules are necessary for the safety of the swimmers, the cleanliness of the pool and the protection of the equipment. THIS 1S YOUR SWIMMING POOL, SO HELP US KEEP IT IN TOP CONDITION. Some of the main pool rules that we must insist be observed, are: 1. Only people in swimming togs are allowed on the deck area. 2. No smoking is allowed in the pool area. 3. No candy, gum, potato chips, etc., allowed in the pool area. 4. Female bathers must wear bathing caps at all times. 5. No bobby pins, hair clips, etc., may be worn into the pool . 6. No running on deck or horseplay of any kind is allowed in the pool or the pool area. 7. BATHERS MAY NOT LEAN ON THE POOL WINDBREAK WHILE SUN BATHING. This last rule is very important. Swimmers are reminded that anyone damaging the pool windbreak or the facilities in any way will be charged the cost of the repair. Let us all obey these rules and keep our swimming pool in a clean, safe, attractive condition. NORTH SHORE SPORTS LEAGUES A meeting will be held in Terrace Bay this Friday night with delegates from Red Rock, Nipigon, Schreiber, Terrace Bay and Marathon, to discuss the formation of leagues for Minor Baseball, Junior Baseball, Swimming, Lacrosse and Soccer.
