1944-1945 Year Book - the Gatineau Valley Historical Society

46 Ottawa Ski Club Year Book 1944-45.
four-way competitions are concerned,
with distances of around
sixty to seventy~five feet. Twelve
to fourteen trees have to be re­
.moved, gr~;tding and levelling to
be done, and a small tower constructed.
The bridge and ski
tow have first priority, as the
N. R. rule is always to consider
the majority of members first,
but these are sufficiently well
advanced to divert some energy
to competitive interests.
Supper bell sounded at five
o:clock, and nineteen tired N.R.s
picked up their tools and called
it a day.
The Night Riders at Work
The Pink Lake quartet have
finished with the foundation of
the new woodshed and "Men's­
Ladies" building, and are ready
to lay the floor and then continue
with the log-'siding waUs
matching the lodge itself; and
the red roof. The windows in
the main lodge are being all refitted
in order tq be wind tight
and keep out the cold.
There is to be a meeting of
the N.R.s at Bill Irving's on
Thursday evening to discuss
progress of the work and lay
plans for the early winter activities.
