Carol ship event called a success

Dear Editor:

The Carol Ship nights of Dec. 15
at Waterfront Park and Dee. 16 at
Cates Park and Panorama Park
were a resounding success.

Waterfront Park had an atten-
dance of well over 2,500 people, as
did Panorama Park. $1,467 was
collected for the Christmas Bureau
fund, also many cartons of non-
perishable goods which will cer-
tainly help the people in need on
the North Shore.

There was a great community
spirit with North Vancouver City
staff volunteering their time;
choirs singing and getting people
into the Christmas spirit: our local
newspaper, the North Shore News,
providing song sheets and helping
to promote the event.

Also, thanks to the following
merchants for their generous
donations of coffee, hot chocolate,
cookies and donuts:

Save-On-Foods (Park & Tilford)
Edgemont Super Valu

Stong's Market

London Drugs (Lonsdale)
Queensbury Market

Lonsdale Rental!

Neates Coffee

McDonalds Restaurant

It is very heartwarming to know
that many groups participate in
our Carol Ship night to make it
such a successful evening. To name
a few:

Pacific Marine Training Institute
North Vancouver City Fire
Department

Chamber of Commerce

North Shore Christian Centre
Choir

Art Jones, Master of Ceremonies

Reinstate
inspections

Dear Editor:

P. Cloutier outlined two near-
tragedies in the Dec. 13 Mailbox
column.

In both cases, the mentioned
vehicles had their brakes fai] while
travelling down 2!st Street in West
Vancouver. The letter’s, author
Suggested 2ist should be re-
directed as one-way uphill, or have
“‘heavy traffic’? use the more
“‘suitable’’ 22nd Street.

Is it really up to the District of
West Vancouver to re-design the
municipality’s steep roads, of
which there are many, just because
some pinheads neglect to have
- their brakes serviced?

Also, P. Cloutier alluded that
the cause of these mishaps was that
the vehicles were heavy, one being
a truck and the other being a
fully-occupied car. Oh my, how
misguided.

The issue here is mandatory
vehicle inspection, which the pro-
vincial government should bring
back immediately.
