The date had been tentatively set for Friday, August 23, but it was found that this would conflict with the Fra- ser Flower Festival in Abbotsford on the same day, date of which had been announced several months ago. After some discussion it was decided to hold the sports on Saturday, August 24. Messrs. Hill and Heller attended the meeting in behalf of the Flower Festi- val committee, inviting the interest and participation of the sports committes, and the free attendance of all school children in Matsqui to the floral dis- plays in Gaisley hall, Abbotsford, on Friday, August 23.
