The sum of $500 will be forwarded to the school to offset the costs of uniforms and a trip to Washington. "As you likely already heard, the 40 member CHSS choir is planning a tour of Washington from May 8 to 13. "Since 1984, the music club has been endeavouring to raise the money required for uniforms and the tour," noted Susan Howson, a representative of the parent support group, in a letter to the board. The choir has held several projects and have paid $50 each to help raise the required funds. Home show starts this Friday RECREATION PREVIEW by .

This past weekend was at times hectic hysterical, and hilarious. Jim Burdge, one of the regulars was the first name in the book for '86 but it wasn't long until there were plenty of golfers thrashing their way around the course. The weekend soon developed into a marathon with everyone pitching in to answer a zillion questions, cook h hundred pizzas and • pour tons of pop. The phone was ringing off the hook and since it had been moved to a new location over the winter answering it was no small feat. "Where is your phone, Ludlow?" "We're not surer Of course opening weekend you always run out of food, quarters and small bills. Half the things on the menu are not available and no one {mows how to cook the other half. The new pop machine was producing large and small cups of foam and the kids were lined up three deep patiently waiting for the foam to go down. The lids to the cups were the wrong size and I'd forgotten to call the dairy for all those milk drinkers who play golf, The new cooler needed a minor adjustment when we realized that turning on the fan resulted in the temperature plummetting to 10 degrees fahrenheit in a matter of seconds. Then there was the coffee maker. It 'sputtered and spurted, steamed and stutter- ed and it was taking about an hour to make a pot of much needed coffee.

The roller that they made was from cement tile filled Mei more cement and was designed to be pulled behind the tractor. The thing was so heavy the tractor couldn't pull it up the slightest grade and it had to be dismantled and carted over by the other "good stuff" behind the shed, where it remains to this day. So much for the mother of invention. We had a sod cutter too that didn't worst worth a hoot, so auction sales were watched and finally way up north there was a sod cutter for sale. Off Dad went to purchase the sod canter, but upon arriving and viewing the machine, he realized the fellow had the exact same invention and it didn't work worth a hoot either and he was trying to get some money. out of it. Thus a wasted trip. zooy, outside the course was shaping up well. The flagpoles were given a fresh coat of paint and the pins were in. All the customers noted the changes in the clubhouse but we also had a moment to discuss the many changes that have come about on the course itself.

The fust wereps were made from aluminum t tin cans and the flaggpoles electrical conduit with homemade number- less flags attached. Tee blocks were expensive and since we had an excess of rocks anyway, a coat of paint turned ordinary rocks into the men's and ladies' tee markers.
