CASSIAR

Bits & Pieces

No, girls, it isn’t true! Lothar K is still footloose and fancy free despite all those rumours of wedding bells in Germany. —

What a sad state of affairs when it is not possible to keep a flag on the flagpole in front of Town Administration — it keeps getting stolen. :

Figure Skating bingos have been moving along so well lately — thanks to the great job Frank Nitti does of call- ing. :

Mike and Marie were in to see mom and dad, Bill and-

Eileen Zemenchik recently — gave grandma and grandpa

a. chance to spoil their new grandson Tyler. Imagine _coming north to Cassiar for your debushing!!!!

Judy says “Sex education is up in the air!’’?????? LY SAYS DEX €

Recent House 130 Guest

The R.C.M.P. at Dease Lake aren't the only. ones who have “different” house guests! Seems this one at House ‘130 liked the plants better than the peanut butter Bob left for it. ‘ vie

Recent visitors to Mighty Moe’s were Mrs. & Mrs. Alan Collier from Toronto. Alan designed the $2.00 ‘Kluane’ postage stamp. ;

Sure wish the white stuff would stay so we could get rid of the mud!

Our sympathy is extended to June and George Holman and family on the recent passing away of June’s mother in Ontario.

We were saddened to hear of the recent passing away of former Cassiar residents — Susan Ritchie in Thunder Bay and Annabelle Reid in southern B.C.

Rumor has it that there is a line of lovely ladies prac- tising for the Klondike Nite Can Can Show + we can’t

wait to see you gals!

Can you imagine —a certain person from the ‘Ivory

meantime, the ‘Cops’ are keeping a close eye on the

comings and goings of the local reporters.

Speaking of ‘cops’ there sure was a surplus of the traffic variety in town recently.

Lil and Al Whiteside recently had Lil ’s sister, Lynda Grant from Vancouver, and her brother Bud Silvester from Nigeria in for a visit. Also in town for a visit with her mom and dad was Gigie McGlynn, and their new granddaugher Nema Dawn.

It was nice to hear from our “Reflections From a Log Cabin” lady. Brenda and Al say “Hi” to all their friends in Cassiar Country.

Orchids to the Royal Bank. We think the new queueing arrangements are terrific - they eliminate the frustation of standing in the WRONG line.

Don’t forget to vote at the school trustee elections.

Best wishes to Joe Gomes on the occasion of his re- tirement. We hope that he finds lots of interesting things to do now that he has the time.

A certain vice-principal should watch what he says

about the local photographers. Retaliation may be just around the corner.

: Scouting NEWS scene

j SCOUTS CANADA

What a great summer it was for camping. As Scouts, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and went on

a few camps and hikes. Where do Scouts go camping? Well by strolling through the bush some weekend we found a beautiful lake. Because the lake didn’t have a name the boys decided to call it Scout Lake. And everybody liked it 50 much at Scout Lake we decided to build a Scout Camp there. And now the camp is called Scout Lake Camp. During the summer we went back there a few times and cleared out a few campsites, built a rain shelter, start- ed working on an outhouse and, best of all, we built a real nice dock. The boys put lots of effort into building this dock and are really proud of it. Now the dock is being us-

&

ed for diving, fishing or just to sit there. Our long range _

plans call for a cabin at Scout Lake Camp and for a bridge. Now the only way to get there is by crossing a creek, and sometimes the water is cold and deep — but that’s part of the fun.

ANEW SCOUTING YEAR

This summer we had the great fortune to find a new Cubmaster. After Bob Teufel left the search began for someone who would be willing to lead the Cubs into high gear. It was then that Mary Ryan kindly offered to.be the: new Cubmaster. Mary was a Cubmaster in the United States and, therefore, has all the background and qualific- ations needed in order to ensure a successful Cub pro- gram. Mary’s husband, Mike and one of his fellow workers, George, will be assisting her. George also has‘a strong backe ground in Cubs. The Cubs are looking forward to a very active and fun year.

BEAVERS

FIRST MEETING AT THE BEAVER POND

We also had the great fortune to find a Beaver Leader, ~ Mrs. Zubek. She will be running Beavers for boys age 5, 6 and 7. This will be the first year for Beavers in Cassiar and we are all very happy to be able to offer this new program for the little ones. Mrs. Zubek did work with Brownies in the past and we wish her lots of luck with the Beavers.

SCOUTS

While | will remain as the Scoutmaster for as long as needed, | started looking around for a qualified assistant. Again | was very fortunate to find such a person in Scott, the new R.C.N.P. constable. Scott has a strong back- ground. as a Cub leader and ‘as a Scout leader. He also loves the outdoors. The Scouts are looking forward to a very active camping year and we are confident that it will be a good Scouting year.

VENTURERS

This is a new program in Cassiar and is designed for boys ages 14, 15, 16 and 17. Venturers is a whole lot dif- ferent than Scouts in that Venturers are more independ- ent and choose and run their own program under super- vision and assistance from their advisor. | will be the Ven- turer advisor and we are looking forward to an active year.

With the first Cassiar Scouting Group growing and expanding the need to raise money becomes more. import- ant and fund-raising will be an important activity for all

program’ sections. Our Cubs and- Scouts will be going around selling Scout Calendars for $1.00 each. We have

two hundred calendars and hope to sell them al!. We also will have a booth set up at the Lioness Bazaar and the

"Cubs and Beavers will be selling Christmas Logs and hope-

fully our Christmas candles and chocolate bars will be in by then. We also will have a booth at the Catholic Church Bazaar on November 28 and we hope to get a good turn- out from the town. Please come out-and support us. Any left over candles and chocolate bars will be sold door to door after November 28. .

One more activity | would like to mention. The Scouts and Venturers took part in the Worldwide Jam-

' boree on the air the weekend of Oct. 17 and 18. Mr. John

Slana was kind enough to invite us over and under his supervision the boys learned how to use a Ham Radio. We talked to Boy Scouts in the following countries: Australia, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, Finland, Sweden, Ger- many, Uruguay, United States, Canada, ‘Portugal, Gibral- ter and many more countries all over the world. The boys will remember talking to a group of Girl Guides in Upper Hut, New. Zealand, and they sure had a great time. An- other exciting conversation took place with a group of na-

‘tive Scouts in Papua New Guinea and when we told them of an encounter with a porcupine they were all surprised

and found it hard to imagine. . Another interesting conver- sation’ took place with Boy Scouts in Pennsylvania, U.S.A. They were very impressed when they heard about all the wildlife we have in the Cassiar region and were very inter- ested to learn more about wolverines and how we carry firearms when we go camping. But the most exciting con- versation took place with a group of German Boy Scouts in Motivideo in Uruguay in South America. These boys were listening in on us for more than an hour before they had a chance ‘to break into our conversation. When the

‘boys made contact it turned out that they were part of a

small German community in Montivideo and two of the Scouts there started to talk in German with me. It was a

‘great experience for all of us and the Scouts from Montiv-

ideo educated us about Uruguay and the type of scouting

~ they do there and, in turn, we told them about the bush, wildlife and, of course, the long winters we get here. So

the conversation went on for about one hour and in the end the boys from Monitiveo took down our address and we hope to get a letter from them in German.

All in all, the Jamboree on the Air was a far out ex-

perience for all our Cassiar Scouts and Venturers and for

myself and, | think, even for John Slana. We made lots of new friends all over the world and once more Scouting proved to bea once-in-a-lifeteime chance for the boys and leaders. It really was great to talk to other Scouts all over the world and knowing that we all belong to the world- wide brotherhood of Scouting made us feel proud and | think everybody feels privileged to be part of this organiz- ation. | know that | do. We would be happy to give more boys the chance to take part in our Scouting activities and

‘if any boy wishes to join our Scout troop then he should

drop over to one of our meetings on Tuesday night at the Rec Centre.

Again, a great many thanks to John Slana for all the many hours he spent with the Cassiar Scouts on the Ham Radio. It was a terrific weekend, John, and I’m sure the boys will remember it for a long time to come.

GUIDING NEWS _

by Liz Maguire

The 1981-82 session for Girl Guides got off to a good start in the month of September. Nine girls regis- tered, including four girls from the previous year. The new recruits are at present busy learning all they need to know to pass their Tenderfoot Test. There is quite a bit of work involved in this part of their training, but the girls are very*keen to get down to business. Once they are familiar with, and understand the meaning of, what they are learning, we will then be making arrangements to have these girls enrolled.

| took part in a training session recently in Dawson Creek and brought home much valuable information in regard to most aspects of Guide leadership and training. | hope this will help to make our meetings very interest- ing and enjoyable in the future. One of the trainers at- tending the course is to visit Cassiar on November 14, so it is comforting to know that we are not forgotten about in this part of the country!

The girls are also busy making plans for their Hall- oween Party, which will take place at our meeting on November 2, and which looks like being a lot of fun.

Any girls between the ages of 9 and 12 years who would like to become a Girl Guide would be made most welcome at our meetings held every Monday evening from 7 — 8:30 p.m. in the Upper Leisure Room at the

Community Centre. PRY ’
