Rec news
Last week's Clinton Recreation Commit-
tee meeting, held on February 12, brought
some good news for local figure skaters.
After being approached by the Clinton
Figure Skating'Club in regard to keeping
the ice in the arena aabit longer. the com-
mittee made their decision to give it a try
and see how it works out for this year.
The skaters will be given an extra 18.
days of ice time as they will be using the
arena right through the second week of
April. During this time the industrial tour-
nament will be held, as well as any minor
hockey games that might carry on this late
into the season due to playoffs.
This extended season will give the arena
workers two weeks to get the ice out and
the tables and chairs set up for the
Klompen Feest dance.
"We're doing it on a trial basis to see
what the costs are. Hopefully we'll break
even, we're looking to break even," Clin-
ton Recreation Director Steve Campbell
explained.
He added that if it proves to be a success
this year, it may become a yearly event.
In other rec news, Mr. Campbell an-
nounced that Clinton will be hosting the
monthly meeting of the regional games
committee for the Senior's Games.
The games will be held in Seaforth this
year, but they contacted Clinton's Recrea-
tion Office to see whether the meeting to
set up the games could be held here.
The committee voted unanimously in
favor of supplying the seniors with the
space for the meeting as well and coffee
and donuts for their refreshments.
Bowled Over
For a few different reasons, up until
recently I thought I would probably never
bowl again.
The first reason is pretty self
explanatory. A few years back I entered a
24 hour bowl-a-thon to raise money for Big
Brothers. Try bowling for 24 straight hours
some time, and see if you feel like rolling a
few balls down the lanes in the immediate
future.
Actually, it turned out to be a 12 hour
bowl, but we were so gung-ho, we talked
everyone else into going the extra 12 hours.
I guess we learn from our mistakes.
My next reason for lacking any desire to
bowl might not be so easy to understand,
unless you could see the stacks of bowling
results I have to enter into my computer
every week.
It's not. really that terrible, but as you
might notice when glancing through the
sports pages, a ,lot of bowling goes on in
this area.
To top it all off, I'm not the world's
greatest bowler as it is, so when a friend
dropped into Clinton a while back, I never
suspected we'd end up spending part of our
Saturday night out on the local lanes.
When we started to get bored of racing
on his car set, I jokingly suggested we
could go bowling. Surprisingly enough, he
didn't take it as a joke, and the next thing I
knew, he'd booked us a lane.
I have to admit that once we got playing,
it was a lot of fun. I was just terrified to go
initially because I didn't want to make a
fool out of myself. I think my friend had
the same worries because we bowled the
three fastest games I've ever seen.
After checking around a bit, I found we
didn't do all that bad. In fact, we were just
a bit below average, in the 150 to 160 range.
I thought this was probably the end of
my bowling career for awhile, but I was
wrong. Last Friday night I hosted a bit of a
Rendevous '87 party for a few friends, and
when it was all over, they decided to try
out some more bowling.
I warned them to book the lanes in ad-
vance, but they didn't think bowling late on
a Friday night would be too popular in
Mississauga.
They were a bit surprised when we got to
the alley and found there were no 10 -pin
lanes open. That was alright though,
because I like to bowl 5 -pin.
My average dropped by about 20 or 30
points this time around, but we found we
had a natural bowler :n our midst. One
friend, who had never bowled before,
chalked up a game in the 190s.
I think this could become a habit. In fact,
my friend who made the trip down here
was discussing joining a league in
Mississauga.
This might be a bit far-fetched, but I im-
agine the next time I have guests down
we'll be out at the local lanes trying to im-
prove our averages.

Vanastra hosting Butter Bonspiel
The Vanastra Curling Club will host a new
curling bonspiel for mixed teams on
February 28. The event will be the Gay Lea
Better Butter Bonspiel.
Gay Lea Foods of Weston sponsor nine
bonspiels in communities where the com-
pany has a presence. The Vanastra event is
the seventh of nine events that will be con-
tested this year.
The bonspiel will be made up of 16 teams
from the Vanastra ('urling Club. Each team
will play three, eight end games with the
winner being decided by a points system.
"Mixed curling events are very popular
with our club members." said Gay Lea
organizer Bob Hayter, "so when the oppor-
tunity for a Gay Lea 'spiel came along, we
jumped at it. It hopefully will become a
tradition as it has with other clubs around
southern Ontario."
An awards dinner will be held after the
final rock is thrown and the points are
tallied to determine a winner.
