The Olympic torch arrived in Terrace Bay on a chilly Monday afternoon to a very packed Simcoe Plaza. One of the most noted events in Terrace Bay leading up to the arrival of the torch was the Games of Winter Play, part of the Entertainment Series. The show was held at the Terrace Bay campus of Lake Superior High School, and played toa very enthusi- astic crowd, said Dean Main, Terrace Bay recreation director. "Main said there were approximate- ly 170 people in attendence for the show at 7 p.m. on Sunday, January 10. The show was a fast-paced come- dy with music, song, drama, and even a little skating. ; A highlight of the show was the skating performance by Michael Shinniman (show skater). Shinniman, who began skating at the age of 13 with the Orangeville, Not an athlete himself, Leon does- n't know where to begin, but fortu- nately for him, the mystical Phidippides, guardian of the Olympic spirits and the world's first Olympian, takes him under his wing. Phidippides introduces him to Todd Brooker, Barbara Ann Scott, Steve Collins, Nancy Greene, Tony Nash, Vic Emery, Jungle Jim Hunter... Not only does Leon have a unique opportunity to interview these sports greats, but he befriends them, coaches them, argues with them and finally competes with them, experiencing the glory of winning, the agony of defeat and the unrelenting quest for Olympic gold. The Games of Winter Show also gave people the opportunity to expe- rience a delightful and entertaining chance to celebrate the essential spirit of the intemational Olympics and to appreciate the courage and stamina of our outstanding Canadian athletes. How did Shinniman skate at the high-school? Well, sheets of teflon flooring Ontario, Figure Skating Club, has competed both nationally and interna- tionally and he is a double gold medallist. On tour with the Ice Capades for six years, he has also performed pro- fessionally in Stars on Ice, Radio City.

"The show was really profession- ally done," said Recreation Director Dean Main. "A good performance." Main said the show was expected to arrive in Terrace Bay at 2 p.m. on Sunday to undertake a four-hour set up. A phone call came in and the truck had broken down in Sault Ste. Marie. A Rider van was obtained and all the equipment for the show had to be loaded onto the van from the broken down truck. Arrival was at 5 p.m., three hours later then intended, but the show was ready to go at 8 p.m. sharp, said Main. 20 people were involved who helped set up the stage, even the actors and people from the local Entertainment Series. The show, said Main, "was well worth the money. The lighting was really good. Everybody who saw it said it was a really good show."
