about which weve been writing for the past few months It took its first breath short ly after Februarys Winter Carnival Its one or the many nice things associated with the winter spec tacle The carnival that started featuring speed skating by international stars has branched into dog racing parachute Jumping ice fishing barrel Jumping beau ty contests etc But speed skating the phase that we felt would be the first to diminish is the one that made the biggest impact few local youngsters tried their luck with the long blades last winter Others wished they had attentive parents came to the kiddies aid Fellows like Bell Dave Kehoe Stan Eolfbette Bob Golds Ron Porter and Russ Davey sat around table few evenings discussing the pros and cons of speed skating Meetings became little more serious as the wea ther got warmer unusual Just about week ago this group which saw many new faces enter the scene took aname and adopted constitution It has applied to the Ontario Speed Skating Assoc iation for certification Of course things werent as easy as they appear on these pages Few if any of the persons involved knew much about speed skating or the formation of skating club Help came from at least three outside clubs Hamilton Buffalo and Toronto Support has been muted from Barrie Recreation Committee and the Winter Carnival Committee We would urge thatvsupport come from the rest of the citizens as well This is new sport to Barrie yet Barrie has been host to it for few years As weve written so many times in the past it would be more of pleasure to photograph write about and shake the hand of local winner When it conlee to plaudits were homer We like to see our friends come out on top Huronia Speed Skating Club if it prospers as it should will add much to the winter extravaganza
