CASSIAR CAPERS

"Fine Times'' was the saying for the
hilarious frolics enjoyed by both part-
icipants and spectators alike at the Cassiar
Capers - Thursday February 8th to Sunday,
February 11th.

Thursday evening started with the Snow-
mobile club torch ride. The Rec Hall was a
bustle of activities with tables of bridge,
crib and table tennis with dart enthusiasts
competing in the far corner. Across the
way, in the Arena, lauahter roared as teams
of broom ball competed for - bruises and
points - oops....by the looks of thinas, the
number of bruises soared over the aame
scores!

Saturday mornina started with a scrump-
tious pancake breakfast - thanks to Sandy,
Arlene and Martha. Nourishment from this
was needed for the following games of tuq-
a-war, pie eating contest and fun relays on
ice. We hope everyone has recovered from
their stiffness and bruises. The evenina
contained its full share of laughs as the
dance started out with the ''Miz Bestos"
Beauty Queen Contest. Our six contestants
made judging a difficult task but the judges
eventually made their decision and chose
a queen and two princesses; Ist: Miss
Telearaph Creek, Joe Fitzsimmons. 2nd: Miss
Quartz Creek, "Lilly'' Lothar Kutz. 3rd: Miss
Upper Liard, Steve Ikac.

For three days - we've watched comoeting
All the races -and pie eating

We've seen poor sports and seen bad sports
but we're glad we even have sports!

We don't care who wins the races or
Who has pte smeared on their faces

We don't care who wins or looses and sure
don't mind all the bruises.

All we care its that we're all here and we
hope you'll be here next year!

I guess we'll go sit doum now so you can
hear some other clowns now

By the way tf you didn't like us then your
free to catch the next bus

Else you can enter yourself next year
And right now we're gotng to have a beer -

So we'll see you in the papers when you
read about Cassiar Cavers ' o/ 7

The ''3'' Barbershop Quartets proved that
Cassiar does have "hidden" talent. The
question remains....should they have stayed
hidden?7? Nevertheless this talent did
prove rewarding when the ''Hard Times Band!!
began to play.

The total success of these four days was
brought about by the overwhelming support
of the community, given to our ''Randy'' and
staff. A big thanks to all and we hope this

' "'first'' becomes an annual event.
