LIONS REGATTA

The 1973 Annual Lions Regatta was held
on Sunday, July 22nd at the Lions Park at
Chain Lake, and was very well attended by
local residents as well as visiting Lions
from Watson Lake, Y.T.

In spite of the weather in Cassiar (snow-
fall the night before)Chain Lakes had a
good supply of sunshine for the gala affair.

The raffle for the Canoe was won by
Wayne Gillies and Jean Poirier won the
Instamatic Camera,

The Canoe Race, one ot the major events
of the day was organized and won by Lion
Doctor Bob and crew. I think it was fixed
and was going to ask the local law enforcer
to investagate but found out that he was

on the same team along with the Lion
President!

The Fish Derby put on by the Rod and Gun
Club was won by the Tischler boys with a
2 1b lake trout.

Novelty races, for both children and
adults, games of chance, lots of chicken
and potatoe salad, hot dogs and liquid
refreshments made this a good day all
around,

I would like to take this opportunity
to thank Sherry and Bob Sethen of R&S
Chevron for their donation of 50 gallons
of gas for the Canoe Race prize and Ed
& Mary Tomashewski of Edmar Sales for their
donation of an Instamatic Camera Kit for
the raffle prize.

I would also like to thank all the Lions
and everyone else who helped in the
setting up and organizing of this event.
