—_ ad B4 Terrace Review — Wednesday, April 17, 1991 At Winnipeg they called them ‘the wild women of Terrace’. Actuallly they’re mostly Ter- racites acting like roving ‘Chamber of Commerce. The eight ladies were at Win- nipeg to cheer on Canada and in particular Julie Sutton in the re- cent World Curling champion- ships. They are a mixture of local and former Terrace residents. Sally Barry, Paulette Patterson, Rusty Blaines and Gail Kirk still live here. Added to the pack was Iris Garneau of Victoria, Shirley Speed of Prince George, Linda Jackson of Winnipeg, and Joan Clifford of Salmon Arm. This newspaper learned of our galloping group from former Terrace resident Mrs. Marie Twomey (Normandeau) of Win- nipeg. Here’s what she wrote us — “| was going through my local papers (the Winnipeg Free Press and Winnipeg Sun) and lo and behold there’s a picture of some faithful curlers from Terrace. I was quite thrilled as I am atrue Terrace died-in-the-woo!l fan. Actually I grew up there but moved with my husband and two children to Winnipeg 17 ‘Wild women of Terrace’ tear through Winnipeg years ago. I still have seven brothers and sisters in Terrace, and come home for a visit every couple of years, I’m a true Ter- race fan and really miss it.”’ With her letter she included press clippings on our travelling ambassadors. The Free Press wrote: Then there’s the wild women of Terrace, B.C. Like a roving chamber of commerce, they promote the town of Terrace as if it is their highest purpose in life. There are eight of them, and they could pass for fortysome- thing sisters in their matching at- tire. Yesterday, it was hot pink sweatshirts, B.C. tartan scarfs and striking black tophats. Like a reunton “We were at the worlds in '86, we were at the Scott. We always dress alike and we always pro- mote Terrace,’’ said Sally Barry. “The eight of us all curled together at one time or another. We're all scattered around the country now and this is like a@ reunion, ’”” They hand out brochures and pins and tell you Terrace is the home of the Kermodei, a rare species of black bear that’s ac- tually white. oO They’re overwhelmed by this particular rock festival. “We have had a superb time,’ said Shirley Speed. “Everybody has been so nice. These bus drivers have been so nice. You can’t compare it. “1 blows my mind how friendly the people are. ” Golfing soon Golf is just around the corer at the Skeena Valley Golf and Country Club. You can dust off the clubs right now, as the club expects to open before May 1. Fees will be going up this year. —_ It’s now going to cost the first adult member of a family $400 to sign up for the season. The second family member will pay $275. An overall family membership (children included) comes to $950. Senior annual memberships are $200, while juniors pay $125. If you buy at the membership scale, you must have a club share certificate. If not, it’s going to be $125 for the one-time share certificate purchase. As for the green fees, weekdays they’re $18. For weekends and holidays it’s $22. Twilight fees are $12. For seniors’ and juniors’ - Most trade pins — some with more zeal than others. Between draws, they pack the shuttles on the Hog Line Inn and line up for lunch and libations. When the 3 p.m. draw begins, the pub clears out except for the diehards who proudly stock their beer cups all afternoon fong. Some take side trips, perhaps soak up a little local culture. Tours have drawn about 30 brave souls apiece, although a chance to eat fine cuisine tomor- row morning at the swank St. Charles Country Club has spawned little interest so far. This was not a one-shot ef- fort. Apparently it’s a regular trip to take in a national or inter- national event. No doubt they’re saving up for next year’s trip right now. Totem midgets shut down in Nelson The Terrace Totem Ford Mid- gets took it on the chin at the B.C. Minor Hockey ‘AA’ pro- vincial championships at Nelson last week. They managed only one win in five tries. Their opener against Alder- _grove was a close one, but an empty-net goal at the end gave the Fraser Valley gang an 8-6 win. Hometown Nelson doubled up to come out with a 6-3 win in game two. Terrace really wasn’t in the game against Vancouver Hastings. They lost their third contest 10-2 to the big city boys. It was another empty-net goal Ringette The Terrace Ringette Associa- tion wound up their season recently with a year-end banquet and awards’ night. This past season, Terrace Ringette iced two teams — one in the Petit (11-and-under divi- sion) and a Junior squad of 15-and-under. situation that gave Dawson Creek an 8-6 win over us in game four. : Totem Ford’s final matchup was against 100 Mile House in the consolation final.
