Hansen Elected_ 1950 Pottery President Sunday was a very busy day for the Iroquois Falls Ski Club when some 75 visiting skiers converged on them.>â€"About 50 of them Timmins and District and the balance from Smooth Rock. Regardless of the tow breakdown and the fact: that we had to climb up their long hill everyone had a wonderâ€" ful time. Ski and folk songs were sung both going and coming, with Jerry Morin accompanying on his harmonica. Aifter full day of skiing everyone adjourned to the Knights of Columbus hall where a very delicious buffet dinner was served under the auspices of the Catholic Women‘s League. Following dinner a singâ€"song led by Dave Wymess and then dancing until 9â€"p.m., which was time to leave for home. Our sincere thanks go to Iroquois Falls Ski Club for making our visit such a happy one. â€"Hoping we can do as well when they visit us. The Ski Club*‘dance went over with a "bang‘"‘ and a good time was had by all. During the evening a jolly conga line was ably led by two well known members of the ski club, their names we will refrairsfrom mentioning. A number of outâ€"ofâ€" town guests were noted, among them were several of the visitâ€" ing Air Force Band and about ten from Iroquois Falls Ski Club.

There are four trails, two of which average about 50 feet in width, and in many places are more. ‘This leaves plenty of room for checking speed. They average in length about 1800 feet, and have a drop of some 700 feet. Any hill can be taken from part way up, which gives a long run and not too much speed; this way even a novice can make them. So let‘s see more of you Kam. Transportation time at Kam. is 10.30 a.m. at the Post Office, and to the Gulch 1.30 p.m. at either the Post Office or KRoss‘s store on Toke Street.
