Plan
fun day
The newly organized Exeter and district
snowmobile club is planning a Family Fun Day at Exeter
Community Park on Sunday, March 7.
President Jim Newby and his enthusiastic executive
met Monday night with representatives from the Exeter
rodeo committee and the area 4-H snowmobile club to
plan the numerous events.
While six snowmobile races will be staged many
other events are planned to interest all age groups.
The 4-H club under the direction of leaders Maurice
Love and Kevin Delbridge will be providing free rides for
children attending the show.
The rodeo angle will provide various races with a
summer flavour. Included will be an egg relay race, bale
pick-up and a toque pick-up.
In the bale pick-up race, a toboggan will be drawn
by a snowmobile and the rider will attempt to put at least
three bales of his hay on his vehicle.
The winner will be the one that can get the most
bales on the toboggan and keep them on to the finish line
while staying aboard himself. The time factor will also be
taken into consideration in deciding the winner.
Newby told us this week he expected to keep most
of the attractions in front of the grandstand for the
benefit of the spectators. He added, "This may necessitate
some extra snow shovelling to have the seats clear, but
we'll do it."
A snowmobile race for children up to 14 years of
age is on the agenda with machines up to 300 CC. The
power limit for machines in the ladies' powder puff race
will be 345 CC's.
Ladies will get an opportunity to show their
strength in a special tug-of-war event. Any women's group
wishing to enter will be more than welcome.
Seven ladies will make up each team and a
full-roster would be appreciated although single entrants
will probably be needed to fill out some of the teams.
The six open snowmobile races will require an
entry fee of one dollar for each event. Entry to the park
for the full afternoon of activities will be one dollar for
adults with children 12 years of age and under being
admitted free of charge.
School Hockey
John McCarroll, physical education consultant for
the Huron-Perth Separate school board has notified us of
the annual International hockey game he has lined up
with a Detroit team supplying the opposition.
The game between the Detroit Schneider Sports
bantams and the Huron-Perth all-stars will be played at
the Zurich arena, Saturday night, February 27 at eight
o'clock.
The following afternoon at two o'clock, an old
timers game will be featured. Locking horns will be the
CKNX Wingham Stars and Don O'Brien's Zurich
Retreads.
Former hockey greats of the Zurich district will be
on skates for this game of fun. Included in the line-up will
be Huron's MP Bob McKinley.
McCarroll also advises that a Blue and Gold
invitational basketball tournament will be held at Regina
Mundi College in London on March 13 and 14.
Involved will be grade seven and eight students
from schools in London, Windsor, Woodstock and the
Huron-Perth area.
