The proclamation is in recognition of the goal to encourage fitness recreation for competitive sports, beneficial to those who are mentally handicapped. B.C. Special Olympics currently has programs in 37 communities in B.C. with 2,000 athletes at all skill levels participating in year-round training and competition. Representing Castle Bowl, the team of (L to R) Erin Keough, Glady Manahan, Reannon Lecouffe and Beulah Wright won the Dairy Queen Kids and Golden Age Provincial Championship in Kamloops Sunday. @ Castlegar foursome is off to Saskatoon in April to try and add National Championship to their credits Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR Combining the wisdom of age and youthful exuberance in perfect harmony, four Castlegar bowlers won the Dairy Queen Kids and Golden Age Bowling Provincial Championship in Kamloops Sunday. Reannon Lecouffe, 10, Erin Keough, 9, Glady Manahan, 75, and Beulah Wright, 72, combined to all but destroy a six-team field at the tournament. And now they’re preparing for a trip to Saskatoon April 10-13, where they will be trying to add a national championship to their credits. “We all bowled over average, but they (Erin ane Reannon) bowled very, very well,” Manahan said. With a three-game total of 425, the Castlegar team, representing Castle Bowl, finished 104 points ahead of its nearest competitor at xe News photo by Ed Mills Bowlers best in B.C.! provincials. In the best three games of her life, Erin led the way for Castlegar, bowling 225 points over her average. “That is amazing, especially when you consider she has a 69-average,” said the girls’ coach Laura Keough. “If it wasn’t for me getting 197 in the last game, we wouldn’t have won, so they were hugging me and stuff. It felt great,” said Erin, a Division 7 (Grade 4) student at Twin Rivers Elementary School. Wright scored 85 points over her average, Manahan was 80 points over and Lecouffe was 25. Keough said she wasn’t surprised the team won, but she was amazed at the margin of victory. : “We just had a really good day. I hope when we get to Saskatchewan they do just as good.” “We’re ready to meet anybody that comes along and do the best we can do,” Manahan said. The Castlegar team will face Alberta Manitoba, Saskatchewan and two teams from Ontario in the National Championship. Rebels may fold Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR : Even though their season ended two weeks ago, it’s do or die time for the Castlegar Rebels. Either someone steps forward to run the team next season or the current management will ask for a year’s leave of absence from the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League, said Rebels’ pres- ident Russ Rilcof. “If I can’t get a president for next year — and that’s what I’m in the process of trying to do right now — I’m going to be forced to take a leave of absence on behalf ofthe club,” Rilcofsaid. - And that could spell the end for good of Junior B hockey in Castle- gar, he said. “It’s something I don’t want to do, because historically team’s that take a year’s leave of absence don’t often come back the following year.” Rilcof said he has to have man- agement in place before the KI- JHL’s annual general meeting, which is usually held at the end of April. “I have to let them (the KIJHL) know by that date what the Rebels hockey club is going to be doing for the following season, ” he said. Rilcof said he hopes candidates for president and general manag- er will come forward at the Rebels annual general meeting March 25. Rilcof said he will be advertis- ing the positions in both Vancou- ver daily newspapers, but as of now there are no prospective can- didates on the horizon. Rilcof made a two-year commit- ment to the club when he took over as president in 1989. Rebels general manager Don Joice made the same commitment but hasn’t yet made public his fu- ture with the team. “As far as he is concerned and I am concerned we are committed to leaving the club.” The team also has a question mark in the head coach’s position, with Gord Walker yet to indicate his intentions for next season.
