Minor Hockey Plaudits and Thanks - Bissell

Anyone who had anything at all to do with this past week’s highly successful Minor Hockey Week activities deserves hearty congratulations and the thanks of all for a job well done,

The chairman of the special week's events, Bob Foubister, as well as the executive of the Castlegar and District Minor Hockey esorle tion Harry Smith, vice-p:

Lightle and aeaetaee treasurer Mike Nacaroff)

district’ superintendent of schools. We had intended to comment at a time when some form of public was given to his

and find now that a private occasion attended by school board members and teacher representa: tives culminated Mr. Bisgell’s formal association with School District No.’ 9.

one;

The Mothers’ Auxiliary to Minor Hockey (guided by president Mrs. Evelyn Wilson, secretary Mrs. Anne Zibin and treasurer Mrs. Elaine Martin) also helped tremendously. And then there were the many others, such as Reiny Bermel, whose duties started months ago when the annual Minor Hockey draw tickets were first offered for sale.

The best display of thanks that local citizens could give all; these hard-working | people, including 'the scores .not ’ mentioned here’ by name, would be a new arena‘in’ Hees er, next year's Minor Hockey Week. | is

Ballots in the Teena, -city contest are

_ although the daily running total kept since the

contest started shows we likely now live in the,

City ‘of Castlegar,, a \city that’ is’ British

Columbia's newest and the fifth largest in the Kootenays. -

Feelings have apparently run very high on this issue and we hope council members will do their utmost to ensure that the name Kinnaird lives on.

We are somewhat late in making mention

here of the retirement of Claude . Bissell as

residents of this district," have seen’ great changes, There is the new Kinnaird Junior. Secondary School, while the Stanley Humphries Senior Secondary of today. bears almost no resemblance on the inside to the same building

of 1960. There are new: schools at Qotischenia, - Blueberry and Woodland Park, along. with other - new ones at Shoreacres and Pass’Creek. As;

well, the Castlegar Primary Schoo! ‘has “come into existence and, of course, Selkirk College now serves the. post-secondary ‘needs of increasing numbers. of local young people.
