The club was revived more than ten years later by a group of individuals who saw a need for more activities in the com- munity that families could par- ticipate in together. "A point we want to get across is that there isn't much for children around here," says club secretary Melody Mateev. "That's where we have to start -- with the young ones.

Richards says the Township financed a study in 1987 which said that a downhill ski club would be feasible, but then shelved the plan, where it remained until the Club was revived it in 1988. The re-formed Downhill Ski Club has been fundraising for the past couple of years in sup- port of their plans to build an outdoor sports complex that would ultimately include three winter and one summer clubs.

"That's all by ourselves, without financial input other than donations for the winter carnival and for the fish derby," she says. "The chalet has a lot of planning still to go through," says Garry Richards. "The clubs. still -have to meet 'and' plan how the chalet will be built." - Another hurdle the club will have to overcome is the need for an access road, which would run next to the Terrace Bay branch of the Royal Cana- dian Legion.
