Wooten Lake
Speed Control
Is Opposed
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Veitch
appeared at the Mason County
• Commissioners' meeting on
Monday to present the board with
a petition in opposition to Marvin
Haydon's request to reduce the
boating speed to eight miles per
hour on Wooten Lake.
Haydon explained at last
week's meeting that residents o~
the lake were having trouble with
big boats going too fast. Mr. and
Mrs. Veitch presented the board
with their petition signed by 16
residents of the lake and added
that Mr. Haydon did not speak
for all of the people on the lake.
The couple felt that reducing
the speed limit to eight miles per
hour on the lake would take
many children out of healthy
recreation like skiing, and put
them on the streets and highways.
They also suggested that
hours might be established for the
various uses of the lake, so that
everyone would have a chance to
enjoy the lake in their own way.
Kitsap County has restricted
all but two of its lakes, Mr. Veitch
said, which added problems to the
Mason County lakes nearby.
The commissioners said that
the entire Mason Couuty Boating
Ordinance needs revamping, and
that they will keep in mind the
thoughts of the residents of the
lake when the ordinance is
rewritten.

Live Music, Flicks Headline
Inn Program Friday
By CHARLES GAY
Live music, movies and voter
registration headline this
weekend's activities at Inn Quest,
Shelton's fledgling youth center.
Mike Gibson, center director,
has been appointed a voter
registrar, and will sign up all those
over 18 who are elegible to vote.
Also upcoming is a rummage
sale to raise money for the
operation of Inn Quest, which is
wobbling along on slim donations.
Persons with items to donate to
the sale may leave them at the
center building, Highway 101 and
Ellinor, Shelton, or phone
426-3911 to arrange for pickup.
Monday night's board meeting
saw discussion of the problems
that have come up during the first
three weeks' operation. One of
the main problems to date has
been irresponsible behavior by
pre-teens.
Which brought up the
question of age limit on people
going to Inn Quest. Directors
don't want to have to set an age
limit because it is difficult to
determine age and because there
are exceptions to the fact that
most pre-teen youngsters are not
responsible. There are exceptions
to the fact that most teenagers are
responsible, too, however.
Inn Quest would like to issue
a plea to the parents to have their
children under 13 home by ten
o'clock. Gibson stated that the
members at the meeting decided
that pre-teenagers would be
welcome until ten o'clock and
that the music and program after
that time is directed at the older
age group.
The 50 cent cover charge for
nights with live music has been
dropped and a donation basis has
taken its place. This should
encourage anyone and everyone
who wants to come.
Every night from 4:00 until
8:00 p.m., there is a person at Inn
Quest to take telephone calls. The
number is 426-3911.
Live music and movies
headline the program this Friday
night. The Inn Quest opens at
2:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday
afternoons and closes from 5:00
until 6:00 p.m. each day to
encourage people to go home for
dinner. Then it opens at 6:00
p.m. to stay open until 2 a.m.
Music usually starts around nine
o'clock.
About 250 visited the center
last weekend, proof of its
popularity. It has been "a place to
go" for hundreds in its brief
existence.
All those who have donated
are thanked for their
contributions. Donations are the
only thing that can keep the
program going.
