Icy cold weather and a seeming lack of snow did nothing to deter snowmobilers from entering
B&W Trailblazers annual poker rally held this past Saturday. Though many fields were brown
with lack of snow, the club's well-groomed trails were still blanketed with white and made for
an enjoyable day of snowmobiling through picturesque woods and open spaces.

OFSC promotes safety
Always drive with a buddy is the
advice the B&W Trailblazers
snowmobile club is giving to
motorists during Snowmobile Safe-
ty Week, Feb 6-13.
Club Vice-President Mark Gropp
said driving with a buddy is essen-
tial when snowmobiling.
Other safety tips he provided
were not to drive faster than you
can see and be aware of snow con-
ditions.
"Snow conditions can change a
couple of times on a day," he
warns. "Sometimes you may be
able to go into a turn with no prob-
lem but as it gets colder, it can get
icy and next time you could upset
your machine in that same corner."
The Ontario Ministry of Tourism
and Recreation is also urging snow-
mobilers to drive safe. In a press
release, the Ministry reveals at least
16 people have lost their lives in
snowmobile mishaps this winter.
Fourteen of those killed were
males. Alcohol and thin ice played
major roles in the accidents, states
the release.
"Two newlyweds were killed on
their honeymoon in St. Charles,
southeast of Sudbury when the
driver left a groomed trail and
crashed head-on with a rock wall.
A 21-year-old man was killed when
he was accidently run over by a
Huron County Council approved
issuing a job offer to an Ottawa
woman to become the new clerk-
administrator of the county.
Jocelyne Murray, a Graduate of
Carleton University has held posts
with the federal government, and in
various capacities for the city of
Ottawa. She was chosen from
among more than 70 applicants,
seven of whom were interviewed.
Grey Township Council held its
regular meeting on Feb. 1 and had
no objection to a severance
application of Glen Johnston, Part
Lot 15, Conc. 1.
Council endorsed a resolution
from the Township of Gordon
which recommends that the
Minister of the Environment
promote refundable cans and
bottles by the beverage industry.
Council authorized a grant of
$300 to the Brussels Agricultural
snowmobile driven by his 17-year-
old brother in Derby Township,
west of Owen Sound. A young
woman lost her life in the
Huntsville area when her bare head
struck the ground after she fell off
the back of a snowmobile during an
accident. She would probably be
alive today had she worn a helmet,"
says the release.
Other snowmobilers were killed
by falling through ice on Georgian
Bay.
"I'm saddened to hear that 16
people were killed but what makes
it more tragic is that these accidents
were easily preventable," Ontario
Minister of Culture, Tourism and
Recreation Anne Swarbrick said.
"It is vital that everyone, from
novices to regular riders adopt a
safety-first attitude."
Riding safe means when riding a
snowmobile don't drink, or speed,
stick to groomed trails, avoid trav-
elling on lakes, follow the rules of
the trail, carry an emergency kit
and at all times wear reflective
clothing and a helmet.
In conjunction with Snowmobile
Safety Week, the provincial gov-
ernment announced that by March
31, $2.1 million will have been
spent on trail development across
Ontario under the SNO-TRAC pro-
gram.
In addition to receiving a salary of
$68,000, she will be given $5000 in
moving expenses.
The offer was extended after a
lengthy closed-door session
requested by councillors after they
were told they couldn't be told in
open session exactly how much Ms
Murray was being offered. "I can't
believe it is not public informa-
tion?" Goderich Reeve Bill Clifford
said.
Society for the 1993 fall fair.
In other business, Council
approved for payment of general
accounts totalling $134,158.62,
drain accounts totalling $428.86
and road accounts totalling
$29,231.85.
The next regular meeting of
