“Shall fold their tents...”
ati 10 Cir tenis...
The restoration of the. Lakelse Loke
government park has been four years in the.
making ond it still isn’t anywhere near
complete. There are about 29 tenting pads
and subsequent clearings that might be
used by travellers if they are willing to-
put up with a few inconveniences. Parks
crews and laborers have brought these 29
to a usable state through sheer hard effort
and a few strokes of plain old luck. The
other 100 or so, plus the boat launching
ramp and the footpaths and the other little
comforts are still right back where they
started, on the drawing boards in Victoria,

In the meantime, a touring family com-
ing from the east can stock up on supplies
in Hazelton and camp overnight at Kleanza
Creek campsite, 15 miles east of Terrace.
A touring family coming from the west
can stock up on supplies in Prince Rupert
and camp oveznight at Exchamsix camp-
site, 30 miles west of Terrace. Other than:
those two sites there is no other spot for
visiting campers, Terrace’s Municipal camp-
site on the west side of Kalum Bridge, was
cleared and cleaned and then given back
to the Indians.

This year's crop of camping tourists
may not like it but they're going to have
to lump it. Wonder if they’l! be back next

JUNE HAS "BUSTED OUT”

Terrace-Kitimat area and our tourist sea-
son, about to move into high gear, promises
to be one of the biggest on record.

. Most of our visitors will arrive by cor,
eager to get. to some of our prime fishing
spots and try their luck, Many of our visit-
ors will want to camp out for a couple of
days in one of B.C.’s famed government
campsites, situated at the edge of some

cool mountain lake.

Smack in the middle of the Lakelse

valley, we have one of the

mountain” lakes in the province but visitors
will be hard pressed to find adequate camp-
ing pads and other facilities to serve their
needs, The Lakelse Lake government camp-
site will not be ready for this year's tourists.

If political promises were worth ony-
thing more than a whistle in the wind,
there should have been at least 50 tent
pads, several access roads, a boat launch-
ing ramp, and numerous footpaths ready

for the 1966 tourist season,

They aren't ready! They won't be ready
until next year because sufficient monies
just haven't been allocated. In fact, we'll
take back the bit about next year, because
in the vernacular of the politician—next

yéar never comes.

Citizenship.” Mr, McKirdy spoke
on each phase with instructive ad-
vice, He urged students not to be-
