Assistant city engineer Hugh McKay said in a report Monday that the $750,000, four-year upgrading plan is to include field reconstruction, a water play area, improved washrooms, playground gear, a concession stand and a horseshoe pitch. The plan, he said, has ‘“‘the essential elements to revitalize Mahon Park.”’ North Shore Horseshoe Club president Buster Buckle told the committee he had pitched horse- shoes all over the world but never in North Vancouver, where the lack of proper horseshoe pitches forces him to practice his sport in Burnaby. Included in the $120,000 facility would be a private clubhouse and 14 public horseshoe pitches. Cf- ficials of the 45-member club hope the new facility will spark interest in horseshoe pitching and swell their ranks with new members. ‘*We’re prepared to help people ‘learn to play horseshoes,’ ex- | plained Buckle.
