“We've had high-schools com-
peting before,” Willis said “But
we'd like to have more people
from the community competing.”

Each Storm-the-Wall team con-
sists of six members: a runner, two
Canocists, a second runner, a
sprinter, and a cyclist.

The first runner covers two
kilometres, hands off to the
canoeists who paddle about 400
metres in the Kootenay River.
They then hand off to the second
two-kilometre runner. The sprinter
then covers 450 mewes, up a steep
hill and across a field. The team
cyclist then rides five kilometres.
When the cyclist returns, the
entire team meets at the 12-foot
Plywood wall and storms it
together. Once they are over the
wall, the team must cross the fin-
ish line together.

SkiTips by Terry Miller : I | ia

00d night sweet season.
For when winter hath shed its snowy
mantle
An lius hath done his mighty work on Sally's
Alley
So too shall the last scraps of P-tex
Drip down the sorry rocks
To spell the start of sliding’s end.

Look we now on this untimely day

When gone forever are icy blasts of thirty new
And sixty on the storm

When run on run of fluffy Granite

Didst show the white smoke of morning passing
into half day rates.

And gathered round the cabled chairs

At lights first break, the tribe of Keeners

Who spake no Oz, and took their java black
Broke not the code of first skis there gets first ski
chair.

Whose gentle buming didst offer to the gods

A quiet plea

For more to come, and less to ski it.

As are the early
passes for the
wretched

And the wary...

Go now.

Forget if you will

the passing of the

passion.

Distract thyselves

with maudlin rak-

ing

and the gathering

of poo.

Feign to rejoice in

winter's passing

That you are si

ing for the crocus

That marks the end of this one.

But mark these words as you spring beyond the
sliding

Those sadder days to come when,

For a kingdom, you would gladly give your
throne

For first tracks down the Towers

March is Nutrition month
Nutrition myth. A giass of wine a

Many women who are aware
of the dangers of drinking alcohol
during pregnancy and who would
not even consider drinking “hard”
liquor will drink wine or beer.

While it is true that wine and
beer have a lower percentage of
alcohol ounce for one than drinks
Such as vodka or rum, the serving
size of each renders them all
equally potent. The amount of
alcohol in one “shot” of hard
liquor equals one bottle of beer or
cider, or one 6 ounce glass of
wine.

The most crucial time in the
development of a fetus is the first
three months. Unfortunately,
many women drink in the first
month or two of fetal develop-
ment because they are unaware
they are pregnant. It is ideal to
