We held bake sales, bazaars, and flea markets. The ladies designed and embroidered first prize quilts (PG Ex) which were then raffled. With counters donated by the Iankows in 1986 we began running a concession at the Vanderhoof Air Show. A convoy of trucks hauled counters, stove (borrowed), frig, sink, grills, pop machine, and food. Last was a prefabricated plywood floor beloved by the Health Inspector. It was WORK but we thrived on it and it fattened the Hall fund.

In 1986 the land on Lund road was obtained from the Government and logged boosting our account.

With the community's help we raised 1/3 of the cost of a hall worth over $100,000, a fine building 40' x 90', it includes a stage, storage, a meeting room, a very well equipped kitchen, the main hall, and washrooms.

We had fun as well, dances, marshmallow and wiener roasts, and water sports at the Fillions place (where we met). After the "Splash and Dash" a line of barbecues were fired up and after we gorged happily we went home exhausted with laughter.

The Hall has weddings, church, Girl Guides, exercise classes, well baby clinics, inoculations, music festivals, voting polls, and our Fall Fair.

We obtained direct dialing telephone service to Prince George. We also had a referendum and passed the 911 emergency system. Spin offs are Citizens on Patrol (COP) which followed Neighbourhood Watch. The Cluculz Lake Emergency Response Team (CLERT) with an old but tenderly cared for fire truck, turns out swiftly to fires and road accidents etc.

We pre-fabricated Pat Keyowskie's pig barn in 1987 to house our first Fall Fair, inspired by Janice Atkins' credo. "If others can do it, so can we!" A 30' x 20' was used the next year and our third fair was sheltered in our unfinished hall. Our fair has been judged equal to Abbotsford or Chilliwack.

A small animal barn, a band stand, a concession building, horseshoe pitches, a baseball diamond, and a sewage lagoon have been made. CLERT's building also shares our grounds.

Dorothy Jeppeson, who began it all, was the gentle persuasive soul of the association for 10 years. The meeting room carries her name. How that body could recruit labour!

Ken Ferris has been a generous patron, who annually donates prints and judges the artwork.

We have a great deal to be proud of and look forward to a good future with the help of our community.
