Brad Price, = Tim Grenier to OFSSA Hurgher-Bits- by ARNOLD BURGHER They"re off! The CKMP 1230 -- Midland YMCA Sixth Annual Run For Fun took place on Sunday afternoon from the Midland Y under sunny Four fish worth $100,000 and up to $10,000 in daily and grand prizes are up for grabs again this sum- mer during the third annual Great Penetang Rotary Club Fish Hunt. A pike, perch, largemouth and smallmouth bass, each worth $25,000 if caught by a registered fisherman, will be tagged and released in Penetanguishene Bay just prior to the start of the month-long derby, which gets underway June 29. Co-sponsored by the Rotary Club of Penetanguishene and Labatt's Breweries, this year's hunt runs from that Saturday, June 29, to Sunday, July 28 at 5 p.m. The $25,000 bounty on each of the marine specimens is guaran- teed by an insurance policy held by the Rotary Club - at a cost this year of $8,000. One of the requirements of the policy is that all en- (rants must register no later than Monday, July ie That avoids the possibility of a horde of fishermen chasing the four targets and picking up a registration form after catching one of the fish. The four will be caught, tagged and released by a licenced Ontario biologist, who will also inspect any of the prize fish caught, taking scale samples and checking to make sure it has been brought in "'using legal means, with conventional hook and line only"'. For the first time this year, there will be a family registration. Individuals pay $15 for a month-long crack at the jackpots, as well as the daily and grand prizes being awarded; families - including all children up to age 16 - pay a flat $25. Daily and grand prizes this year range from a 20 hp Johnson outboard motor to a sophisticated Lowrance fish finder, with weigh- ins each evening throughout the hunt skies. Thirty runners from the ages of six to 60 plus laced up their running shoes and from 7 - 9 p.m. at the Penetanguishene Town Dock. To be eligible for the hunt and derby, fishermen must register and pay their entry fee by July 1 to individual Rotarians, the Chamber of Commerce Office at the Town Dock, area sporting goods stores, marinas, retailers and banks. They can also be ordered by mailing a cheque or money order to the Rotary Club of Penetanguishene, Box 1600, Penetanguishene, Ontario LOK 1P0, along with your name, ad- dress and telephone umber. There will also be a kids' fishing derby at the Penetanguishene Town Dock Saturday, July 20 from 8 a.m. to noon, with free ad- mission and special prizes being awarded: Subject to approval of a grant from the 1985 Ontario Canada Day Committee, the club hopes to kick off the hunt with a fireworks display al the Penetanguishene wa- terfront July 1. A final decision on that is expected within the next 10 days. Rotarians launched the hunt / derby for two reasons - lO create an ongoing summer festival in the area that would attract both tourists and _ local residents, and to raise money for community projects. The hunt ties in with the club's third annual draw on a Grew boat- motor-trailer package valued this year at $18,000, and with a two- day wind-up weekend that features beer gardens, a midway and carnival, flea market, antique car show and dance July 27 and 28. In the past year the club has donated such things as a _ $3,500 wheelchair left to the Georgian Manor van in the community, a $1,300 Hoyer lift to Penetanguishene General Hospital, $1,000 in scholarships to the town's two high schools. headed for one of three different routes around Midland. And construction starts in June on a_ $16,000 family pavilion com- plete with picnic tables and barbecue pits in the waterfront park. This pavilion, 22 by 49 feet in size, will be donated to the town for use by families, com- munity groups and company social clubs. The club hopes again this year to have par- ticipation from Labatt's during its wind-up weekend, including that firm's skydiving team and the famous Labatt's Blue balloons. In all, fs more than enough to keep the club's 28 members busy for the next two months, with the aim to help people have some fun while helping the community and the area's tourist industry al the same time. If you're a fisherman, or just like to dangle a line in the water, $15 a person, or $25 a family is all it takes to join in for a chance at more than $100,000. But the deadline for entries, as noted above, is July 1. Midland Secondary School athletes, Brad Price and Tim Grenier will be representing that school on Friday and Saturday at the OFSSA Track and Field Meet at Etobicoke's Centennial Stadium. Price qualified by winning the Junior Boys Triple Jump event with an effort of 13.65 meters and also registering a second place finish in the Long Jump with a 6.50 mark. Grenier tossed the discus 45.50 meters to place third in the Senior Boys event and thereby qualify for the Provincials. Except for the relays, the first five finishers in each event from the regionals qualify for the OFSSA's. If an athlete is sick or injured and can't compete, then the sixth place finisher from that regional will take her his place: Two other MSS athletes on the alternate list Heather Moore, in the Midget Girl's High Jump, and Ed Richardson in the Junior Boy's Triple Jump. **KK The Sixth Annual Run For Fun enjoyed its usual success on Sunday according to Midland YMCA's Rick LeClair.
