Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, September 3, 1986, page 7 Squash clinic to be held in town The sport of squash is a great way to work yourself into excellent physical and mental condition. Squash will be highlighted at the Recreation booth at the Fall Fair on September 14. Drop by then and find out about the game and register for the free clinic. which will be held the same evening. This clinic will be conducted by people from Fitness Ontario of Thunder Bay. Squash is a popular year-round activity that is very inexpensive to par- ticipate in. You know you are over- weight: when you're lying on the beach and two guys from Greenpeace try to throw you back in; when the chair gets up when you do; when your insurance agent offers you a group rate; when your designer jeans are by Orson Welles.

Bowler's dues are $25, payable to the leagues. Recreation membership is also required. Contacts for bowling are as follows: Ladies Evening, Lise Hnatuk, 825-9417.
