* Minor Hockey Executive * pledge new arena *50,000 At the regular monthly meeting. the minoir hockey executive gave full support, towards planning and build- ing a new arena in Port Perry. A five man committee was selected. and their main goal will be to make the people aware, of the great need for a new arena. Many rinks in Ontario have been condemmed in the past two years, two being Brooklin and Whitby, with- out prior notice. The arena in Port Perry has had many repairs during that period, but is is now beyond repawr and itis only a malter of a very short time before it will also be con- demned: Everyone is aware, that the arena serves as our sports complex, for many of our - children, and that it plays a vital part in the everyday activities, through hockey, figure skating, etc. We are fully aware of the high cost involved in the erection of a new arena and some people will not be in favour of it but for a project as important as this, we should stop and think, weight the pros and cons, and then make an honest decision.

Arny O'Donnell of the Department of Natural Re- sources, Tom Duff president of the Port Perry Snowmo- bile Club and Eric Donnelly, Secretary Treasurer of the club.

Tom Duff outlined the activities of the Snowmobile Club, its social functions and meetings but more impor- tant; its safety programme. "The safety of snowmobile users is a priority for our club" he stated. Arny Q'Donnell discussed the expansion of trails int he Non-Quon area. A committee from the Provincial government under the leadership of M.L.A. Mrs. Scrivener is presently studying Snowmo- biles and will be presenting suggestions for a complete revision of the Snowmobile Act this year. Accidents seem to centre around main roads thus legislation is likely to be enacted which will restrict snowmobiles from main roads, particulaly highways. Sea Cadets executive, fully approach the arena board, our local council, members of our provincial and federal government, and all local organizations for their support. Anyone whom has any con- structive ideas as lo the building of a new arena, please contact any executive - member of the minor hockey assoc., and the information will be passed on to the people responsible. The $50,000 pledge, will be over a period of five years, and we are planning various fund raising activities over that period. This money will be completely separate from our general hockey account, and we want to assure everyone, that the minor hockey system in the Port Perry area will not suffer on account of this, but will only improve by better facilities, and a new arena.
