Wingham Advance-Times, 1978-11-22, Page 16it 0 a MAKING MONEY—Thirty-seven skaters gathered at the Wingham arena last Wednes- day evening for a six hour skate-a-thon. The 21 skaters who completed the six hours raised over $1,600 for the local figure skating club. Skate-athon raises $1,600 Twenty one skaters swooped and glided around the arena for six long hours Wednesday evening of last week in a skate-a- thon to raise money for the Wingham Figure Skating Club. By the time they .were through they had qualified for more than $1,600 in pledges. As many as 37 skaters took part in the event, but not all could remain for the full six hours which would have taken some of the tykes well past their bed- times. Marg Gavreluk of the figure skating club said the money raised will be used to pay for ice time and pro's fees. The idea is to keep the fees down and allow everyone a chance to learn to figure skate, she explained. The club's costs have gone up this year and without some way of raising money the fees would have had to increase too, she noted. Right now the fees here are among the lowest in the area and the club hopes to keepthem that way. This was the first time the Wingham club tried something like a skate-a-thon and the executive was "a little leery" at the beginning, Mrs. Gavreluk said. However everything went well and, since the event was held on the club's regular ice time, YBC Bowling Scores BANTAMS Graham Taylor had the top scores in tlhe Bantam division last week as he bowled a 198 high single and 330 high double. Lisa Ritchie had the girls' high single of 170 and Brenda Thomp- son bowled the 312 girls' high double. :. -3rian'.s Pineapples Moved •,to first place this week by earning five points.
