business good atftfiis ski resort claremont in a time when some ski resorts have reported a drop in business dagmar ski club has been turning over a good trade this wistar the popularity of the dagmar slopes could be partially due to the new snowmaking facility installed this year the system insures that skiers will always have snow even if mother nature doesnt come through according to peter harris of dagmar half of the slopes are serviced by the snowmaking system the snow that is made is about two and a half times heavier than normal snow and is considered by some skiers to be superior to the real thing the system uses a onemillion gallon storage tank and creates a cloud by shooting pressurized air and water over the slope the artifical cloud in turn snows harris gave as an exampje the thaw that occurred earlier in january with tem peratures reaching 60 degrees at 3 am after a warm saturday the snowmaking device was put into use so that skiing on one slope became possible in the

operations is now in progress and a related case has been before the ontario municipal board with no final decision as yet to triple the ton nage extracted would hot benefit this municipality one iota ballinger said he feared the increased truck traffic that ap- provaof the companys requestmight cause and spoke at some length about inequities in taxation township solicitor alec mclennan warned members- of council that 1 the municipality will never be able to tax such operations on a perton basis he added that it will be difficult to get anything out of the province because the province exercises- only minimal authority in this field mayor dr carl puterbough described it as a phenomenal request and councillor eleanor todd termed it really ridiculous mrs todd however went on to
