Photograph of children in traditional Slavic clothes doing a dance on stage at the Aluminum City Telethon. Two girl's in dresses are dancing upright with their hands on their heads. Three boys or on the floor doing a Cossack squat dance.
The Aluminum City Telethon was started in 1980. The Kitimat Sports Association was approached by the board of directors of the Child Development Centre, and asked for their assistance in raising funds. The idea of a Telethon was agreed on and a committee was formed.
Each year the Telethon executive receives requests from the different non-profit organizations within our own community. They then decide on how to disburse the funds raised that year. after the letters of requests are reviewed and a brief presentation is made to the board of directors explaining how the money received will be spent.

Photograph showing a bunch of people dancing in a building. They’re going around in a couple circles, facing each other and holding hands. Everyone is in formal attire. They could possibly in a gymnasium because there are basketball hoops on the walls. In the background of the people dancing is a windmill and huge tulips on the wall. Part of the Loggers Supplement 1972.

Photograph showing many people dancing in a gym all dressed up. It seems to be the Sadie Hawkins Dance from 1959. There are streamers hanging from the ceiling, chairs near the edge of the wall and a table with chairs and people gathered around it in the distance. All the people at the dance seem to be in highschool as they don't look too old or too young.
