The annual Huron Snow-
arma cross country snow-
mobile to raise fund for
crippled children is all set to
get underway on Sunday,
February 4, and local or-
ganizers are hoping for some
more snow to keep the 100
kilometre course in top
shape.
Up until last weekend,
there wasn't enough snow on
the course to make a go of it,
said organizer Joe Gibson of
Hullett Township, but the
weekend snowfall .of nearly
30 centimetre has improved
trail greatly.
The Huron Ride for Timmy
raised over $27,000 last year
when 327 snowmobilers rode
the 100 mile course.
The route this year has
been altered slightly, and
will start at Ray Potters Farm
Equipment Dealership in
Clinton, go up to Auburn,
across to Blyth, and then
Billy, the hawk, survivor,
and hqro who shot down 72
German planes, won the
Victoria Cross and stayed
alive.
Billy Bishop was a farm
boy from Owen Sound whose
irrepressible high spirits
kept him in constant trouble.
e was an upstart colonial
who had never driven a car,
let alone flown an airplane,
back to Potters through Hul-
lett Township.
As in other years, riders
get pledges for the number
of miles they travel, and this
year, the minimum pledge
was lowered to $15 from last
year's $30.
Mr. Gibson said that this
year, lunch will be available
at Clinton and Auburn, but
won't be free in order for the
committee to cut expenses.
Gas can also be purchased at
Clinton and Blyth.
Local Lions, Kinsmen, and
Snowmobile clubs for Clinton
Goderich, Auburn, Colnorne,
Blyth, St. Helens, Hully Gul-
ly will be manning the check-
points through the route, and
will be able to give assistance
to any snowmobiler.
Mr. Gibson said he'd like
to see more snow, but have
the Snowarama weekend
come up sunny, and crisp,
with no wind.
yet he talked his way out of
the muddy trenches in
France and into the Royal Air
Force. He became the fear-
less flying ace - a legend in
aviation history.
