Searching for a Most Outrageous Group Activity brought 176 students out into the cold on January 26 to participate in 11 events, ranging from a tug of war to an in- nertube race. However, the bitterly cold weather has led student council organizers to conclude that MOGA should once again be a springtime event.

EXETER - Thinking of taking a winter's walk down by the stream, toboganning in your favourite riv- er valley, or building a snow fort down by the river... think again! Watercourses are extremely dan- gerous. Although rivers, creeks, streams, and ditches were safe to be near in the summer, you must be careful to stay away, especially with the Targe snowbanks and drifts and the current thawing of the ice that is apparent in the ABCA watershed rivers today. Watercourses are currently filled with snow and ice and create a va- riety of dangerous situations. Last Friday' s milder temperatures amounted to one inch of rainfall on the watershed which increased river flows considerably. The currents created weakened the ice and situations were present where water was flowing over the ice in the watercourses, thus weak- ening the established ice consider- ably, said Alec Scott, Water Re- sources Manager. Ice may have cracked and moved; colder weather has now formed new ice which is weak and thin. You may have a variety of ice conditions present: caverns un- der the newly made ice, thin ice on top of flowing water, and weak ice present on solid ice which may break with your weight and cause you to fall into a hole which you can't get out of! Although larger rivers may still have thick ice present, the ice is weak and extremely dangerous - STAY AWAY. If you happen to fall into the chilly waters; call for help, try to - grab onto a tree branch or get onto the ice on your stomach, anything that will stop you from travelling down the river with the current. Always play with friends and if someone does fall into the frigid waters, have someone run for help - don't try to rescue the person by yourself. Remember this season of winter cold - it would not take long for you to lose your strength and you would get hypothermia. The ABCA is still taking book- ings for their Floodwater Aware- ness program. Younger children in grades 4, 5 and 6 can be educated about the dangers of being near a flooded watercourse. Local schools may book the pro- gram by telephoning the ABCA of- fice at 235-2610 and asking for Patti Haist. PAUL J.
