BLUE VALLEY
$FIGURE SKATING

Well, we are off to a very success-
ful start. The skaters are enjoying
their time on the ice and are all
coming along quite well. The Canskate
and Canfigureskate groups are skating
on Wednesdays and Fridays and the

CSFA test skaters are on the ice
Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturday
mornings.

The Executive met on October 28,
1987. This was a long meeting but
alot of ground was covered. Reports
were given by the Bingo Conmittee,
Ways and Means and Test Chairperson.
On. the Bingo report, Francis Sherlock
stated that the first Bingo was a
great success and that the toy bingo
was held on November 15, 1987. The
regular monthly Bingo was held on
November 18th. Thus far the co-opera-
tion by both parents and the bingo
committee has been very rewarding
to Francis. She has been working
very hard at making these occasions
a success, so keep up your support!

Beth Minty has been very hard
at work and her efforts are defin tely
paying off. Just recently she had
her first hot dog sale at the school
and I think everyone was happy with
their lunch. Beth now feels that
the next sale will be much smoother

and easier.

Her efforts are very refreshing and
the end result is looking quite re-
warding! .

On Sunday, November 8, the club's
"Skata-rama" took place. Dee rate:
our pledges are met the club will
realize about $1300.00 net profit.
Good work skaters! Thanks to all
those parents who came out to bake
or help. Special thanks to the Com-
munity Club for donating the ice
time and to Marlene Shipley for organ-
izing this event. We all had a good
time. Brrrr!

November monthend will see the
CSFA Test Skaters off to Smithers
for the Kla-How-Ya Competition.
Holly will be attending with them
and Lorraine Drzimotta has graciously
donated her time to coach the Canskate
and Canfigureskate children on Friday,
November 27th. The Seniors are really
looking forward to this outing.
Mr. Frances Gleason will be busing
the girls, and the trip will be from
November 27-29. Hopefully the weather
will co-operate.

AS you can see, things are starting
to take fomn. Dates will be set
shortly for the Christmas Program
and the Carnival. We are hoping
to have a test day in late January
or early February. This year, we
hope to take all skaters to Watson
Lake for a skating display. Also
plans will soon be underway for the
Spaghetti Dinner and Windup.

Thanks to all supporters and volun-
teers, your efforts are very much
appreciated! If you have any con-
cerns, please give me a call.

Minor Hockey volunteers have been

very busy this past month. The Toy
Bingo held on November 29th was the
biggest and best ever. Thanks to
the Bantam Midgets for doing their
share of work, especially to Roland
who has been the official "toymaker"
over the past few years.

Raffle tickets for the "Pick-A-
Prize" raffle were an instant sell
out and a big thank you to all those
who donated the prizes and to those
who purchased the tickets.

All divisions have been practising
three times a week and all are looking
forward to attending tournaments in
the new year. At this time the Atoms
are tentatively planning to go to
Terrace during the Christmas. break.

We hosted a mini-tournament on
November 28th with the Atoms and Pee
Wees from Watson Lake in for the day.
There was some good active competition
and a fun time vas had by all players.
Thanks must go to the parents of Good
Hope Lake players who manned the can-
teen and to the fellows for their
officiating, time-keeping and to all
the fans.

The Bantam/Midgets have played
a couple of exhibition games against
the Cassiar Oldtimers and have split
the win/loss score. The Atoms have
played a couple of games with the
Ladies Hockey team.and are holding
their own. It seems that Jody Harrison
is really in demand - both from her
own Atom team and the Ladies Team.

There are twenty-four Novices prac-
ticing each week and it is amazing
to see how well the first year players
are progressing. Also a lot of im-
provement with the older players at
the other end of the ice. The Novices
scrimage each Friday at 6:00 wm so
come on out if you want to watch some
real fun hockey with the little guys.

Everyone involved with Minor Hockey
“in Cassiar would like to wish everyone
a sate and happy holiday season ano.
once again, a big thanks’to all our
supvorters.

After over a month of intense hockey
action it is clear that the team to beat is the
Cassiar Flying Blues. The Blues have a perfect
record to date largely due to outstanding goal
tending by Richard “the cat’” Knowles. Also, in
the goal scoring department, the line of Wayne
“rat-a-tat-tat’” Rattray, Johnny ‘‘the Dipper’’
Drzimotta, and Greg ‘‘beat ya to the puck’’
Morgan have been totally awesome.

Erickson Minor hockey fans have been
applauding the strong play of the “‘flashy’”’ Guy
Martial. Guy has been carrying the puck out of
his own end and combining on some nice passing
plays with the ‘ever steady’’ Doug Bannatyne and
“ever ready”’ Gord Kamlah. Marty Marion and
his partner Reggie Etzerza have brought a lot of
fast skating to the teams attack. Gord Rowe,
the “puck blocker’’ has been doing his thing,
diving out in front of many hard shots in an
effort to protect goaltender Garred “bottles”
Huber.

The Oldtimers team can be symbolized by
looking at Paul Driscoll. Paul has had numerous
occasions to cash in on goals but has been
thwarted by “hard luck’’. ‘‘Rookie’’ Tony Shaw
has shown good speed and was prevented from
scoring his debut goal only because of a great pad
save. Tony had waltzed in from the blue line and
was all alone. Too Bad M*!! Rick Cameron has
been catching the attention of the other teams
blueliners as his new “wheels” are carrying him
rapidly from end to end. Congratulations to the
Oldtimers on their wins over Dease Lake and
Iskut in exhibition hockey.

The Good Hope Lake Warriors are to be
commended for their big win over Iskut on
November 14th. The game was a fast skating,
affair that had all the intensity of a good rivalry.

ance attached to the rear of the machine.

In league play the team has lost some very close
games. Byron and Dwayne Dennis have been
skating well and are making some good plays.
Clary Poitras is taking more shots and should
become a big scoring threat, as he works his way
more into the slot. Vic Wells has been using his
size in front of the net screening goalies and
creating chances to score via the rebound.

HOCKEY HIGHLIGHTS:

- Roger Borsato's slapshot goal from the blueline
to the top corner of the net. A thing of beauty
Roger!

- Porti Nitti and his four goal outburst. Crazy
man!

- Glen Madores uncanniness in being able to
tie up the opposing center on important face-offs.
Well done!

- The durability of Chuck Molloy’s body in
playing goal two games ina single night!

- Daniel Bernards double hat trick outing! Keep
shooting!

_. kowski for doing such a-fine job of controlling

the time keepers box. : ;
