- Canlog in Terrace — again

Bill Moore was a logging man and boss of one of the most enterprising logging camps in the province, located among the ‘tall pines at Winter Harbour on the northern tip of Vancouver Island.

In 1970, Bill Moore had a dream. It involved organizing the loggers of the province into a group to have them compete in sanctioned toumaments of prize money. The events would be strictly woodsman - axe throwing, tree climbing, power sawing, log burling... all the stuff that good loggers are made

of. _ And so Moore went to work on

it. He gathered together a handful of logging buddies from both management and labour and his dream began to take shape.

From those organizational meet-

ings sprang the Canadian Loggers Sports Association, as it was soon to become better known, Canjog.

Less than a dozen communities were involved in the initial staging of Canlog events the first year, but the general interest among the loggers was one of extreme enthu- siasm. Word of Canlog spread and it travelled all the way to Vancouver where an invitation was made by the PNE to hold logger sports competitions during that exhibition.

By 1976, the Festival of Forestry event at the PNE was the Fair’s most popular event and played daily to sellout crowds of more than 5,000. And today, Canlog has grown from a baby into an adult.

There are now a host of com- munities throughout the province

who fly the Canlog banner and conduct sanctioned logger sport events. The communities with Canlog sanctions in 1976 were Nanaimo, Alberni, Victoria, Woss Lake, Port Hardy, Mission, Gold River, Sooke, Squamish, Prince George, Hope, Williams Lake and Terrace. Loggers vied for close to $20,000 in prize money at those centres that year. .

Back to Bill Moore. A second part of his dream was to eventually see logger sports recognized as an official sport. It happened in 1971 when the provincial government declared logger sports the official Industrial Sport of British Colum-._ bia.

Further, Quebec, Alberta and Newfoundland asked his advice in

organizing the sport.
