This will be a thrilling event for all of us. But in order to stage this meet, we had to make some changes. The old Lockeberg jump had become too dangerous to use any longer. Repairs would have meant considerable expense and would not have been lasting. Even with repairs, our jump could not have met the standards required for international competition. So your Club executive decided to use 1967 to usher in a new era in jumping for Eastern Canada by con­ structing a permanent steel-concrete jump. This has been done, and now the Club has the finest 60-meter jump in the country. In two months the centennial international jumping competition will be held at Camp Fortune. In order to pay for this tremendous fixed asset, the Club decided to charge every­ one, members and non-members, over the age of 12, admission to Camp Fortune for the world jumping meet. We sincerely hope that all of you will buy the required passport -even for those under 12. You might make this a Christmas gift for family or friends. We are counting on you to give your Club's centennial project your fullest support. VIC ALLEN.

~ -..&~ MIDGET RACING by Kent Boucher The 1967 Midget Racing Season will open on Sunday, January 8th, with a giant slalom at 11:00 A.M. and a Slalom at 2:00 P.M. on the Marshall Hill. These two pre.­ liminary races are open to all Ottawa Ski Club Midgets who have not reached their thirteenth birthday before January 1st, 1967. Kindly note that courses for the preliminary races are set with a view to allow children from 3 to 12 to race and we urge full participation. All racers will be rated "A" and "B" and thereafter only "A" racers are eligible for Gatineau Zone Races. It is important to note that if any child is unable to attend either race on January 8th there are two other methods of obtaining a rating. First, by attending the Racing Instructional Classes, which are conducted on Saturday afternoons by Doug Livingston, or second by qualifying in the two races held for "B" Midgets on February 19th. Harold Fawcett retired this year as Committee Chairman of Midget Racing and stepped up to Director of Midget Racing for the Ottawa Ski Club. Harold and Lois Fawcett developed this program to a degree of success that can only be measured by viewing the calibre of young graduate Midgets today representing the Ottawa Ski Club in National and International Events. Racing numbers for all alpine events will be issued at the Ottawa Ski Club Office, located in the basement of Alexandor Lodge. Parents are reminded that a telephone entry (733-2872) is required for all alpine races. All area operators will charge each racer $1.00 which will permit full use of tows before, during and after races. Kindly note that no races are scheduled for February 26th the weekend of the Centennial Jump. We urge you to support our club with your attendance and purchase of passports. This year the racing committee is composed of the following: Timing ...... Bernie Shaver 733-7765 Gatekeepers Mrs. "Mickey" Meikle 825-3181 Tabulations ...... Don Thompson 731-3954 Recorders Mr. & Mrs. R. McCormick Faith Boucher 233-3233 Equipment S/ L Bob Crosby 745-6909 Racing Instruction ...... Doug Livingston 723-3245 Chairman ...... Kent Boucher 233-3233 The Committee remind you that races will start on time. In past years the success of the programs has depended upon the interest and volun­ tary assistance so generously given by parents and we sincerely hope that this will continue.

13 JUVENILE RACING by Bruce Lang The tentative schedule for this year has been drawn up. An additional race will be held at Mont St. Marie, and depending upon conditions, will probably be two giant slaloms or a giant slalom and .a controlled downhill. The runs are around Ph miles in length and so we hope to take advantage of the extra length. John Fripp has kindly offered to take charge of the Juvenile racing instruction. He has been instructing for many years, has been chief instructor of numerous clinics and schools and was one of Canada's finest racerS. He hopes that those who feel that the jump to the junior ranks this year may be a little premature will stay as juveniles, providing they are still within the age limit, and provide a strong nucleus for the development of an advanced racing group to enter the junior class next year. Last year's juveniles made great strides as the season progressed. There was a lot of good, young talent who may find the sudden jump this year to junior level too much. With instruction such as Mr. Fripp can offer and a good racing program it may be advantageous for the younger of last year's racers to remain another year. Juvenile Coaching School: Those interested are asked to watch the papers and to phone the ski club office for f information. The date of commencement will depend largely upon conditions.
