Ringette grant given big boost

Description

Langley Advance newspaper article from November 14, 1974 entitled: "Ringette grant given big boost." The article announces a $2,400 grant for the Langley "ringette hockey" group from the Langley municipal council. This breaks down to $6.92 per player plus $1,000 for the ringette organization.

Alderman Ralph Barichello who put the motion for the grant forward explained that "the ringette people in the past year have done considerably more in self-help that any other group". The municipality has been giving grants of $15 per figure skater and per hockey player.

At the meeting Barichello also warned of cutbacks to recreation grants given the "economic realities of the times."
