Food booth
A unique feature of the Trans
Can National Championships in
Walton, will be offered once again
this year.
The B&W Trailblazers Snowmo-
bile Club will be providing on site
food for the competitors and spec-
tators.
Unlike previous years, the booth
will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 6
p.m. every day of the event, says
Pam Clark, food booth co-ordinator
for the club.
The many volunteers from the
Trailblazers will be serving full
breakfasts which will include bacon
and eggs, toast, jam, juice and cof-
fee. Hotdogs, hamburgers and
bacon or pork on a bun can be
ordered later in the day.
Along with the nutritional meals,
the typical "junk" food will be
available as well as pop.
Mrs. Clark says last year's booth
was very busy and they expect the
same this year. "We sold out of just
about everything. We were selling
plain tomato sandwiches by the
end. Once the flagpeople got off
duty, they devoured everything."
The Trailblazers' food booth will
be staffed by three people through-
out the day and four on Saturday
and Sunday, at the peak times.
The booth is used as a fundraiser
for the snowmobile club to help
pay for the two new trail groomers
which were purchased in the past
year.
Post race
activities
Many post race activities are in
the works. A volleyball tournament
will once again take place as will a
tug-of war tournament. The orga-
nizers want you to start putting
your team together so you can par-
ticipate in the fun.
Also taking place will be a corn
roast, community camp fire and for
those with aching bones and mus-
cles, massage services will be
available.
Challenge race
A special challenge event has
been organized for the enjoyment
of racing fans.
Dan "Dangerous" Davidson has
put together a Vintage Can/Am
challenge, scheduled for Sunday.
Riders from Michigan and New
York will race against any CMC
Canadian rider on a vintage
machine.
There will be two classes; 1974
and before and 1975 to 1980.
Information can be obtained by
contacting Mr. Davidson at (416)
450-5157.

motocross is no worse than that of
minor hockey, many racers say.
The sport is not yet as popular as
in the United States but, presently
boasts a membership of more than
600 in the Continental Motosport
Club (CMC).
