Page 10, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, November 9, 1983 "Senwace Bay Gigure Skating Chal; A prevailing com- ment heard throughout the Hamilton arena as Terrace Bay was tfe- peatedly called upon to receive medals at the conclusion of the Hamil- ton-Stoney Creek Invita- tional competition on Saturday, October 22nd. For the past few years, skaters from Ter- race Bay, Marathon, Hornepayne, Manitou- wadge and Schreiber have joined in a train- ing programme coach- ed by Mr. Paul Wirtz. We skaters from the 'rush between North Shore area train- ed and travelled to- gether to meet and com- pete among a new group of skaters in the Toron- to and Hamilton area. Although each club skates and represents their own home club, upon registering for the competition, we dis- covered that by clerical error, we were all regis- tered under the Ter- race Bay Figure Skating Club. The weekend at com- petition was a constant two arenas, at which the meet was being held. You can image the curiosity of the larger figure skating clubs as the combined efforts of the North Western On- tario skaters picked up five gold medals, four silver medals, and one bronze medal, not to mention the fine perfor- mance of those of us not receiving medals. What a team! To enable our parti- cipation, strong support was given by parents and friends who accom- panied us on our trip to Hamilton. Those' receiving medals were: From Terrace Bay: Tracy Clark - silver - ladies bronze interpret- ive. Jennifer Kodila - silver - ladies gold inter- pretice. From Marathon: Shelly Lesarge - silver - Pre-Juvenile, Ladies fi- nal. Kris Wirtz - gold - ladies bronze interpre- tive. Kris Wirtz and Jennifer Samec - gold - Pre-Novice Dance.

Poplar Hill to build radio station Northern Affairs Min- ister, Leo Bernier has announced a $3,500 grant to the remote na- tive settlement of Pop- lar Hill, to assist in establishing a commun- ity radio station. """' The Poplar Hill Band has raised $t,60@°as"its share to purchase a transmitter and broad- cast equipment from Wa Wa Tay Native Com- munications. The community will also supply a_ heated facility and hydro power for the stations. Wa Wa Tay will carry out the installation of the an- tenna, low power trans- mitter, record turn- tables, operations con- _ sole and auxiliary broad- cast equipment. "A local broadcast- ing facility such as this can do much to reduce the sense of isolation felt by residents of remote communities by provid- ing a medium for trans- mitting news and infor- mation," said Bernier. "'There are also cultural development opportu- nities not only at the local level, but on a broader scale tied into the Wa Wa Tay com- munications system. Poplar Hill which is situated 112 kilometres northeast of Red Lake, will become the 25th community in the Treaty 9 area, to establish a local radio station.
