EDITORIAL

POWELL RIVER SHOWS US HOW

The proposed district recreational centre here seems a gigantic
project to many residents. Undoubtedly its not a small undertaking
but then neither is it too formidable. It’s a matter of our own earnest-
ness in wishing to provide the recreational facilities we need. Other
districts, about our size, are going ahead with arena projects every
bit as ambitious as ours and are. making good progress,

For instance, there’s Powell River, a town and district north
of: Vancouver, only slightly larger than ours, ‘This fall Powell River
plans to-offjcially open its. first year-round Sports and recreation
centre, the Willingdon Arena which will boast the second largest ice
surface in B.C. :

Although the idea was first instigated eight years ago, work
on the 180x220 community ice rink began in earnest Jast spring, | ¢]
when the i of local
church, school and community groups and interested individuals, vol-
unteer Work.crews dismantled an old Shingle Mill on Powell Lake,
salvaging upwards of 80,000 feét of heavy timbers for the rink.’

3 raised an initial $30,000 through
the sale of arena memberships and bonds.

Clearing, for the brick
structure was done last summer by a contracting firm for a special
price, Some 10,000 concrete bricks, each weighing 40 pounds, were
also purchased at a reduced price on the understanding that arena
workers would do the hauling themselves,

Trucking firms likewise supplied sand and gravel at special prices,
as their to the. ity. project.

Ever since, volunteer gangs ‘of men have been turning out reg-
ularly, often in rain and. wind, to ‘build forms, dig ditches, pour
cement and do countless other things common to construction jobs,
Two working foremen ‘are on hand | daily to guide and assist every
voluntary .worker.

The volunteer help takes other forms also. A barber, too busy
to put in time with the shovel, gives free haircuts to consistent vol-

‘ unteer workers. A nearby cafe seryes free coffee to anyone donating
his labor.

is good posture in standing and.

A MONUMENT TO HISTORY :

The ; .recent news that the CPR’s stern-wheel steamer, the
ss Minto, will be taken out of service next month, is a disappoint-
ing development ‘although it has been- prperesnively. inevitable: for
some time.

The .Minto’s i dit “has
deep. regret throughout the Arrow Lakes country which. the ship
has served since pioneer days. Like the residents of this area for
many. of whom the Minto was the only link with the outside world,
we wish: her faithful service might! continue, Since it cannot, how-
ever, it seems to us that becoming ‘the training quarters for the}.
local ‘sea cadets, as applied for by the Castlegar and District Branch
of the Navy League, would be a most fitting retirement for her.

As the Cadet training ship here, the Minto would not only have

a part in the important youth’ training offered by the cadet corps, |:

but would also remain a direct 'link betwéen the modern present
and the district's early" days when. the Arrow. Lakes waterways were
the K ’s main tation line, Much of the early history
which has helped to make this region what it is today, soon becomes
lost to memory unless some tangible remnant of ‘it:is preserved. "
’ Allowing the Minto a graceful retirement as a cadet -training ship
at Castlegar, where the early days which the Minto represents Meet
modern times with their diesel trains and Convair plans, would be
an effective way of preserving for visitors and future an
important tangible part of this: district's history. *
