A WINTER carnival in keeping
with the best European tradition
will come to a number of North
Vancouver venues, including
Grouse Mountain and local malls.

In conjunction with the Molson
World Giant Slalom at Grouse
Mountain — where the world giant
slalom champion for 1988 will be
decided — organizers have put
together a carnival with live enter-
tainment, food items and adult
refreshment.

Running Feb, 27 and 28 at Lynn
Valley Centre and Capilano Mall,
the carnival will feature a variety
of ethnic dancers from Bavaria,
the Ukraine, Scotland and other
countries, explained the carnival’s
organizer, Bill Tombrink.

“We expect a lot of people will
come from Calgary from the
Olympics (which end Feb. 28). We
put this on to keep them on the
North Shore,"’ he said. ‘

At Grouse Mountain, the car-

 SIX-SPEED TRANSMISSION

a

nivat will run frem Feb, 27
through to the day of the March 1
World Cup race as an added at-
traction during the race events,

A 3,600-square-foot tent in the
lower parking lot at Grouse will be
set up to give visitors a chance to
see the carnival in the European
tradition.

The Capilano Lions Club and
Jocal volunteers will sell food and
drink; patrons will be treated to a
variety of entertainment, including
live music.

“It's a happy time," Tombrink,
a native of Germany, said of the
event.

Born in the 14th century, the
winter carnival tradition developed
during a time of dictatorial gov-
eraments when people would put
on the carnival for recreation, said
Tombrink. ‘‘Thcey would wear
masks so they weren't scen.”*
