ManinMotion F@ will receive a warm welcome By Ken Lusk Rick Hansen will be arriving in Terrace Bay in a couple of months, and- fundraising plans by the Schreiber-Terrace Bay Kinsmen Club are now starting to take shape. At the Nov. 26 open meeting, there was a discussion and exchange of ideas between executives from the club and representatives of the Disability Action Group. The Kinsmen explained their con- tributions to date which include a planned skate-a-thon in Schreiber and a dance-a-thon in Terrace Bay. Kinsman Gord Moorey said _his objective is to raise $10,000 for 'Man in Motion'. That averages to $2 per person for both communities. Gertrude Cotton, publicist for the Disabilty Action Group, said "'That's a good goal and I think it's within reason."' Skate-a-thon The skate-a-thon will take place Dec. 6 in Schreiber from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. The Kinsmen are arranging to have transportation to and from the com- munities for both events. The dance-a-thon will be on Fri- day, Dec. 12 and Saturday, Dec. 13 from 9 p.m, to 3 p.m. at the Terrace Bay High School. Registration will take place from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday night. Moorey stated the entrance fee as $36 for each adult couple and children will be admitted free. He said the $36 fee will ensure that there will be a "commitment" from the.entrants.- See Official entrants will be numbered and the Kinsmen are in need of old sheets to cut and mark. If you can help out in this regard, let them know. The children will only be allowed to join the dance at 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. Friday. Moorey said that he didn't want his kids dancing through the wee hours of the morning. People under the influence will not be allowed in and there will be $5 fee for non-participants who will have a designated area where they can watch. Non-participants can also dance during a specified time. If non-participants pay Friday night, they can stay for a couple of hours, but only until 2 a.m. They won't have to pay again Saturday, Moorey said. Non-participants will not be per- mitted to come and go from the dance, he added. They either stay or go. If they go, they will have to pay again on Saturday. The dance will be closed to non- participants from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m. Saturday. There will also' be a designated smoking area. If one person drops out of the dance, the couple will be eliminated. The dancers will get a 5-minute break every hour and a half hour break every six hours. Winners of the dance-a-thon will win 'Man in Motion' t-shirts, Moorey said, and there will also be something for the kids. Help needed The Kinsmen are asking for assistance from anyone to make these events successes. The Costa Food Market has donated hot dogs, buns and gar- nishes for the event and the Imperial has also donated hamburgers and garnishes. People are needed to serve the food, act as spotters to keep an eye on the dancers and to run the sound system for the 18-hour period. If you would like to help in any way, you can get in touch with any of the Kinsmen or D.A.G. Man in Motion >Don Young said< that 'as Rick - Hansen passes through town, the Kinsmen will supply him and his en- tourage with anything they might need. They will also collect money from the crowd. A supper for Hansen had been planned, but as Gord Moorey said, "We really can't depend on his humour or mood. He's probably not up to it."' Instead, a supper is being plann- ed for the two communities to raise money. Moorey did say he would like to get Hansen to at least stay in Terrace ¥ ic ee Wednesday, December 3, 1986 y Vol. 41 No. 48 Serving Terrace Bay, Schreiber and Rossport 35° Shown above is the Pam Leavitt Rink from Windsor, Ontario, accepting the award for first place in the first Annual Kleenex- Huggies Ladies' Cashspiel held in Terrace Arthritis Award Irene and Ernie Kettle received a Certificate Merit from the Arthritis Society and the Knights of Columbus in the council chambers on Nov. 24.

(Photo by Ken Lusk) Bonspiel champs By Ken Lusk Christmas is a time that most peo- ple do not regard as a cause for financial concern. But those of us in dire straits may very well regard the holiday season as just another time for reflection on how nice life would be if things were different. Organizers in Terrace Bay, which include the clergy, individuals and the fire department, are now plann- ing a community outreach that will serve the purpose of aiding those in need during the holiday season. The outreach is called, "People to people- reaching out" and unlike last year, will be organized better and sooner to ensure success. The. outreach is planned for Dec. 12, 13 and 14, and Community Church Minister, Ernie Hunt, said "*People will be asked to be prepared to donate food, clothes, and money. '*The Fire Chief will have the fire truck available and we will go up and down the streets. Parents can send their children out to give us whatever. "'There will also be volunteers at the fire hall, so if people find it more convenient to drop things there, they can,"' he said. No visable poor "In Terrace Bay, there are no visable poor or they're too proud or - the impact of the layoffs (Kimberly- Clark) hasn't hit them yet," he add- ed. "They (the laidoff employees) still have money.". : Bay last weekend: Shown are Cathy Moncur- Lead, Bev DeKoning- Second, Sue Bell- Third, and Pam Leavitt- Skip. (Photo by Ken Lusk. More pictures on page 8) lan to help needy Hunt said it is difficult to pinpoint exactly what is going to happen in Terrace Bay after the collection because of the fact that there is not a large number of poor in the area. Hunt said that the organizers would appreciate being informed about people in need so they can help. Needy people from our area would be looked after first, he said. The areas of priority are Terrace Bay, Schreiber, Rossport and Pays Plat, and whatever is left over, will go to Thunder Bay. "'The money that we-receive will be divided equally between the Crisis House in Marathon and the Fay Peterson Home in Thunder Bay. "'Money won't be a large factor of what we receive, though," said Hunt. A lot of the donations received will go to Thunder Bay to the emergen- cy shelter kitchen, St. Andrew's Roman Catholic Church and the Salvation Army. "Everything (the donations) seems to be outside of the community,"' said Hunt, "but we're going to direct our first efforts here."' Hunt would like people to let the clergy know of any needy situations. "There is no list of (needy) families in Terrace Bay," he said. "Terrace Bay is a wealthy communi- Vcc The town will be divided into five areas for collection and it will take place over the three days of Dec. 12, 13 and 14.
