WEED Representatives for
Ihe Mount Shasta Siskiyou Rec
reation Association will meet at
the Y Cafe in Weed Friday night,
March 18, to complete the slate of
nominees for the general meeting
set for April 1, and to formulate a
program and policies.
Preparations for the April 1 gen
eral meeting began at the initial
meeting held Friday at the Y Cafe
here with first nominations made
for the board of directors. The
limit of directors was not set as
only nominations were made.
Sixteen leaders attended the
meeting last week working out the
original setup with Bob Rogers
Mount Shasta, as temporary chair
man.
The organization's purpose is to
fill the gap between the small lo
cal chambers of commerce and
the regional promotional groups
like the Shasta-Cascade Wonder
land Association. Principally it
represents the whole county geo
graphically and makes it represent
the economy a n whole, not just
hotels, motels, bars, restaurants
and other concerns dealing direct
ly with the tourists.

Motel in Mount Shasta, said, "1

leaving before dawn to go else
where. They spend about $16 per
couple per day ... but we're not,
getting it because they don't stay
over. We've got to all get together
and promote this area."
All agreed that the recreation
dollar helped everyone in the coun
ty, not just motels and gas sta
tions.
Joe Futch, Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl
manager, pointed to the fact that
the area needs to be built up as
an all-year destination point for
more than skiers. "Skiers hit Mt.
Shasta first because it's closest,
but that's only in winter. The board
of directors should establish an
overall plan for this area that will
give each seasonal attraction max
imum promotion."
Ray Chinca, owner of the Vet
erans Club in Mount Shasta, bit
terly described failure to treat
tourists properly.
Joe Bender, Golden Spur Motel,
Weed, pointed nut the need for di
recting tourists to the best places.
J. Morgan Jones, mayor of Duns-
muir and owner of the Oak-Lo Mo
rel, made a motion to form an
organization and nominate direc
tors . . . directors to be picked to
represent all of Siskiyou County
and a cross section of the econ
omy. The motion specified three
from each major city.
Bob Rogers was named interim
chairman until the board of direc
tors is elected and officers select
ed. Nominated were Alan McMur-
ray, contractor, Aiacn James, car
dealer, the third spot vacant.
Yreka.
Ted Fay, motelman, and Chap
Wentworlh, publisher, the third
spot vacant, Dunsmuir.
Joe Bender, motelman, and Lou
Sbarbaro, bar and restaurant, the
third spot vacant, Weed.
Bob Rogers, motelman, Ray
Chinca, bar owner, and Barney
Hoffman, department store owner,
Mount Shasta.
From McCloud, all three direc
torships vacant, to be filled by the
Service Club. .
Directors at large, Joe Futch
and Pat Hanratty, administrative
assistant to Sen. Randolph Collier.
Other directorships were dis
cussed to represent Tulelake, Dor
ris and the Scott Valley-Klamath
River areas.
The Yreka directors were or
dered to prepare a list of persons
to be invited to attend the next
meeting, and the Mount Shasta
group was, asked to develop the
publicity program.
It was also suggested that selec
tion of a paid secretary-manager
be kept in mind.
County-wide harmony and coop
eration was the prevailing atmos
phere of the meeting.
