  • Origins of Canadian Olympic Weightlifting
    1 Page # June 30, 2011. ORIGINS OF CANADIAN OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING INTRODUCTION The author does not pretend to have written everything about the history of Olympic weightlifting in Canada since Canadian Weightlifting has only one weightlifting magazine to refer to and it is from the Province of Québec “Coup d’oeil sur l’Haltérophilie”, it is understandable that a great number of the articles are about the Quebecers. The researcher is ready to make any modification to this document when it is supported by facts of historical value to Canadian Weightlifting. (Ce document est aussi disponible en langue française) The early history of this sport is not well documented, but weightlifting is known to be of ancient origin. According to legend, Egyptian and Chinese athletes demonstrated their strength by lifting heavy objects nearly 5,000 years ago. During the era of the ancient Olympic Games a Greek athlete of the 6th century BC, Milo of Crotona, gained fame for feats of strength, including the act of lifting an ox onto his shoulders and carrying it the full length of the stadium at Olympia, a distance of more than 200 meters. For centuries, men have been interested in strength, while also seeking athletic perfection. Early strength competitions, where Greek athletes lifted bulls or where Swiss mountaineers shouldered and tossed huge boulders, gave little satisfaction to those individuals who wished to demonstrate their athletic ability. During the centuries that followed, the sport continued to be practiced in many parts of the world. Weightlifting in the early 1900s saw the development of odd-shaped dumbbells and kettle bells which required a great deal of skill to lift, but were not designed to enable the body’s muscles to be used efficiently.

    CTF CONNECTION Published by the Canadian Tenpin Federation, Inc. Fédération Canadienne des Dix-Quilles, Inc. August September, 2014 Welcome to a New Season! How to Join a Bowling League Bowling is a great pastime. It allows you to enjoy exercise, social interaction, and competition, and it can be done regardless of the weather outside. If you want to make bowling your hobby, joining a league is a great way to go! 1. Find a local bowling centre. Maybe you pass one on your way to work every morning. If you don’t, search the internet, or (if anyone does this anymore) use a phone book to find one. CTF (Canadian Tenpin Federation) has a website (www.gotenpinbowling.ca) to contact for information. 2. Go to the bowling centre. Check out the place. See if you like the atmosphere. Is there a snack and beverage bar that you like in there? Is there a pro shop where you can ask questions to learn more about the game/sport? 3. Talk to someone that works there. Ask what nights there are leagues on. If you’re competitive or more of a recreational bowler ask which nights those leagues are on. Be able to tell the employee what you typically average on the lanes (if you know), if you have your own ball/shoes, and what your expectations are of joining a league (i.e. a night out with friends, to win some money, to practice your technique and get better). 4. Figure out what works best for your schedule or friends' schedules.

  • Annual Report 1978
    Charles Stewart Matt, who established this foundation in 1926, was deeply concerned from his earliest years in Flint with the welfare of his adopted community. Soon after he had become one of the dry's leading industrialists. this General Motors pioneer found a practical and successful way to express his interest. He served two years as mayor (1912-13) during a period when the swiftly growing city was beset with municipal problems, with 40,000 people sharing facilities adequate for 10,000. As a private citizen, he provided a building for Hurley Hospital, started a medical and dental clinic for children, helped to establish (he YMCA and the Boy Scouts, Nine years after the Foundation was incorporated for philanthro- pic, charitable and educational purposes, it became a major factor in the life of Flint through organized schoolground recreational activities that developed into the nationwide community school/community education pro- gram. From this start, the Foundation's major concern has been the well-being of the community: the individual, the family, the neighborhood, the systems of government. This interest has continued to find expression in Flint and also has taken us far beyond our home city. Since no one has all the answers to what makes a community work, we support a variety of approaches. This report deals with the avenues that we explored in 1978 while mindful of the founder's motto, "Let us be known by our deeds," and mindful also of the words he once added to that motto: ". and not by our monev." Spiritual Problem Solving At times the burdens of the world seem fellow man.
