Letter of Appreciation

Dear Jo-Anna:

Thanks for supporting and helping me throughout this Cam- pagn. It wouldn’t have been the success it was without you all. We had fun, we got in- volved with our community and university, we had someone fun, but most importantly, we helped ad are still helping with the fight against Cystic Fibrosis. I set a goal and you all blew it out of the Sky! Thank You!!!

I am writing on be halt of our Provincial Chapter of the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Association to express our de- light and gratitude with the results of your 1989 C.F. Shinerama Campaign. The significant increase of 21 per cent

in contributions clearly demonstrated the value of your leadership and organizational skills.

Please convey our most sincere gratitude to your ambitious committee members and all freshmen students in-

volved and invite them to continue to work towards contributing to our programs so that one day we may all join in

rejoicing the announcement that a cure or control for this dreaded disease has been discovered.

Yours gratefully in Cystic Fibrosis,

Hall Happenings

Hi there everyone, the boys are back and would like to extend a warm welcome back to all UPEI students for this yeaar.

This year the freshmen were treated to the usual invitation “ceremonies”, with a few “twists” thrown in. Seems a few of our boys from third floor were caught swimming in the fountain at Con- federation Centre while clad only

in their underwear.

The meant a return for many of the upperclassmen. Word has it that Chuck and Slink are back in res- idene at Marion and they are still partying constantly in one

return to school also

of the corner rooms on second floor. We hope that that their sincere apologies are accepted by the residents of the Marysfield and Belevedere area as well as the residents of Bernardine Hall for the ”excessive” noise levels. Tony “the weasle” MacKenzie has re- turned as House President, and last but not least Chad “the

Great Gatsby” Butt as Treasurer. So far the house committee has been doing a great job, so keep up

the good work. Anyway, that’s

enough for this week dudes, just a few lines to let you all know that the Pitbulls are still alive

liable sources have Don Gunning back as head of the hockey Pitbulls, building

another

and kickin. See ya next week!

Knuckles beware!! Re- “Won”

If anyone is interested in get- ting involved with the Shinerama committee for 1990, put your name into the volunteer bank or come and visit me at Student Services. Let’s make in $10,000 range next year! We Can Do It!!!

Take it easy and have a super year.

New Erection on Campus

Contractors are working on a large building next to the Barn. This “Field House” will be a fa- cility for the 1991 Canada Win- ter Games, and will contain seat- ing space for 1500 spectators. It promises to be a state—of—the—art fitness area as well, with space for a number of simultaneous sporting activities on three main courts.

The building will contain two squash courts, tow racquetball

General meetings for the Gem will be held every Tuesday night at 6:00, unless otherwise speci- fied on the Gem door(located in the basement of Main Building). These meetings are very informal and consist of the following:

Assignment of stories for the

courts, six locker rooms, a very modern weight room and training area, an upstairs running track, and offices for coaches and direc- tors.

It is also a possibility that fu-

ture exams and convocations will be held in this building.

Funding is provided by the federal, provincial, and municipal governments, as well as by UPEI. it is expected that the building will be ready by February, 1990.
