Monica Lamb-Yorski photoPilot Len Brown stands beside his Luscombe 8F two-seater airplane parked on frozen Williams Lake in front Gideon Schuetze’s house.

Once the winter weather starts to change Len Brown makes it a daily habit to check on his Lus-combe 8F two-seater airplane.

That’s because he parks it all winter in front of Gideon Schue-tze’s place on frozen Williams

Lake.“We have a couple of weeks left

before we’ll have to move them off,” Brown said as he stood along-side his plane one day this week. “Every day I have to move it over because the sun’s reflection off the plane melts the ice beneath.”

The blue plane next to his be-longs to his son Ryan.

Pointing to the ice about 20 feet away from his plane he said the ice over there is only about an inch and a half thick now.

The planes were parked on that section less than two weeks ago.

Brown said he’s always a little sad when it’s time to move off the ice because the ice lets you got-more places.

“And we like when there’s snow on the ice because it’s easier to steer.”

Brown grew up just outside of Moncton, N.B. and got his private pilot license in 1968 when he was 22.

For the second year in a row, professionals involved with mental health of youth met for an opportunity to enforce team-based care.

A Child and Youth

Mental Health Col-laborative in Williams Lake was one of many created by Inte-rior Health last year.

The initiative has now spread through-out B.C. has resulted in 20 actions teams, said Dr. Glenn Fe-dor who heads up the

collaborative along with project manager Anna Meyers and Matt Neufeld, execu-tive director of the Boys and Girls Club.

“These teams were given initiatives to do locally and one of ours was to create awareness and build

relationships to try and understand what roles we have in our community,” Fedor said.

One of the collab-orative’s action team goals is increasing timely access to men-tal health care in the community. Building

trust will go a long way in achieving that, Fedor said.

Marilyn Charley-boy, the co-ordinator of the restoring bal-ance family program with Denisiqi Service Society, spoke about her own walk in dark-ness as a single par-

ent and feeling utterly alone.

“I want you all to know that when people struggle with traumas in their lives they don’t even un-derstand they have a choice to make things go differently,” Char-leyboy said.

Various agencies had booths around the room sharing in-formation about their services.

For more about the menth health collab-orative, see upcoming issues of the Williams Lake Tribune/Week-end Advisor.

The Community Volunteer Income Tax Preparation Program is reminding people of its free income tax ser-vices.

“We are a group of long-time volun-teers,” said Surin-derpal Rathor of the 40-plus-year-old pro-gram. “We’ve all gone through training and screening. In fact in 2016 we will need to have criminal record checks done.”

There are some re-strictions to who the volunteers can help, Rathor explained.

Services offered through the pro-gram are available to single people with a maximum income of $30,000, a couple with a combined income of $40,000, for an adult and one child with an income of $35,000 and an additional $2,500 for each child.

Clients must have an interest income of less than $1,000.

Additionally, volun-teers cannot prepare returns for people who are deceased, bankrupt or self-employed.

However, each situa-tion is taken on its own merit.

“If someone comes

in who had a higher in-come in 2014, but isn’t working now, we will look at their situation,” Rathor said.

While the program is not a government agent, volunteers en-courage everyone to do their income tax re-

turns because there are benefits.

Six sittings with vol-unteers are scheduled in March.

Three are open to residents only at Glen Arbor on March 10 from 10 to 11:30 a.m., Seniors Village on

March 11 from 1:30 to 3 p.m., and Sunset Manor on March 17 from 10 to 11:30 a.m.

The other three ses-sions, open to the gen-eral public, will take place at the Seniors Activity Centre March 12, 10 a.m. to noon,

Salvation Army March 10, 10 to 11:30 a.m. and the Immigra-tion and Multicultural Services Society March 24, 10 to 11:30 a.m.

Clients can also drop off their tax informa-tion papers at either the Seniors Activity Centre or the Women’s Contact Society, or call Rathor at 250-392-0909.

“Dedicated to providing fast, courteous & informative

prescription service”

In March, we put the spotlight on poison prevention to raise awareness of possible sources of poisoning in our

homes. Examples include little soft pillows of detergent for our dish and clothes washers. Purses may contain medications, toothpaste, nicotine sources (cigarettes, gums, e-cigarettes) and alcohol found in perfumes, hand sanitizers and mouthwash. Look carefully at these poisoning sources and keep your children safe.Sometimes, when we reach for another sugar-containing

soft drink, it is beneficial to imagine how much exercise it takes to burn off those extra calories. Most of these drinks contain 150 to 170 calories and 41 to 46 grams of sugar. To work off one can, you would have to walk at medium speed for 38 minutes; run 6 mph for 13 minutes; ride a bike for 17 minutes. Kind of puts it into perspective.Compression stockings have their greatest pressure at

the ankle and reduce going up the leg. They are helpful in preventing deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in the lower leg). They may relieve symptoms and even slow the progress of varicose veins. They also help prevent the blood from pooling in the lower legs which can cause skin breakdown. Your doctor can advise if these stockings will help you.A blood test is perhaps the most common of diagnostic

tools. Back in 1884, German scientists found a way to count red blood cells for the very first time. This made diagnosis of anemia much easier.In manners of health, it’s nice to deal with people you

know. We’d be happy to get to know you better. Drop in for our brand of service soon.

TRU GRIT gala coming upGrab your fedora and

swing dancing shoes and get ready for this year’s Thompson Rivers University — Williams Lake gala on March 28.

Following the suc-cess of last year’s Let’s Go Gatsby theme, this year’s theme is Guys and Dolls, a musical set in the 1930s focusing on New York City mobsters and gambling.

To match the theme, Juno nominated, Maple

Blues Award-winners Brandon Isaak and The Twisters, Canada’s Kings of Swing, will be headlining the evening. Local band Third Degree will also be performing.

The gala is an annual event organized by TRU GRIT, a group made up of local community members, to raise mon-ey for scholarships and bursaries and to promote the university.

“We are more en-

thused than ever to be hosting such a worth-while event to help students continue their education right here in Williams Lake,” says TRU GRIT president Brian Garland.

Last year’s gala raised $25,000 and organizers are confident that this year’s total can be dou-bled to $50,000. All pro-ceeds from the evening go towards scholarships and bursaries awarded

to local students attend-ing the Williams Lake Campus.

“We are thankful to local community mem-bers and groups such as TRU GRIT, as well as the many sponsors and donors to this event. It is groups and organiza-tions such as these that help keep the univer-sity a strong pillar of our community,” said Dr. Ray Sanders, TRU Wil-liams Lake executive

director.Tickets are $120/

person or $960/table of eight. Cocktails will be-gin at 6 p.m., dinner at 7 p.m. and dancing at 9 p.m. A silent auction and a live auction will also be available throughout the evening. Tickets are available online at tru.ca/williamslake. For in-formation contact TRU marketing co-ordinator Myrissa Krenzler at 250-392-8048.

Author Bruce Fraser will be giving a pre-sentation about his new novel The Jade Frog: A Chilcotin Mystery, at the Williams Lake Library on Thursday, March 12 starting at 6:30 p.m.

Books will also be available for purchase and signing. The event is part of a tour Fraser

is making to present his book at Cariboo Regional District area libraries this month.

The Jade Frog: A Chilcotin Mystery, published by Granville Island Publishing in Dec., 2014 is the sec-ond novel in Fraser’s Chilcotin Mystery Tril-ogy, about love, hon-our, and revenge.

His first novel, On Potato Moun-tain (2010), is set in 1958, and begins when rancher, Brody Hanlon, is gunned down in his

living room and his adopted son, Noah, is charged with his mur-der.

In The Jade Frog, the search for Brody Han-lon’s killer continues. Relying on the secrets of the land, Noah em-barks on a quest to find the killer.

Spanning decades and immense territory, Fraser’s writing cap-tures the beauty and spiritual influence of the Cariboo Chilcotin.

Ultimately, this se-ries is not just a tale of love and mystery, but

is also a story about an incredible land and its people.

Fraser will be at the 100 Mile Library Wednesday, March 11 at 6:30 p.m. and at the Quesnel Library on Fri-day, March 13 at 2 p.m.

Bruce Fraser releases second book in series

Robert Favell and his band Padova are hosting a free concert upstairs at CJ’s Southwestern Grill in Williams Lake on Saturday, March 14 with guest band Flannel Roots.

This Beneath the Pines free show is for all ages and starts at 6 p.m., Favell says.

“This event is to gen-erate interest in local music around Williams Lake and encourage

other local artists,” Fa-vell says.

Band Padova atCJ’s next week

The Cariboo Cattle-men’s Association held their annual general meeting on Friday Feb. 27.

The day-long session began at 11 a.m. at the Pioneer Complex and did not conclude until well after 5 p.m.

One of the guest speakers on the agenda was local rancher, Erin Durrell. The daughter of Brian Durrell and Jane Eagle, Erin spent her formative years im-mersed in the cattle in-dustry as a child grow-

ing up on the Wineglass Ranch at Riske Creek.

Home-schooling af-forded Erin (and sib-lings Ian and Keely) the flexible schedule that allowed them to partici-pate in the daily chores and activities that keep a cattle-ranch opera-tional. Recently, Erin applied for a place in a nationwide cattle in-dustry program named Cattlemen’s Young Leaders and was for-tunate to be selected from a large group of candidates for the year-long adventure which pairs the young aspir-ing cattle operator with

a knowledgeable person to mentor them in the particular sector of the cattle industry that they indicated the most in-terest in. Erin spoke elo-quently regarding her travels and experiences made possible by her participation in the Cat-tlemen’s Young Leaders program thus far.

Erin is the second Cariboo area rancher selected for the pro-gram.

CCA President, Cuy-ler Huffman was in-volved last year.

Flying offers freedom for lakecity resident

Luscombes have been his preferred plane since 1971 and the one he has now he’s owned since 1987.

They can fly just about anywhere, he said of Luscombes.

He’s flown to the East Coast of Canada from Williams Lake, a trip that takes 26 hours going east and 30 hours west because of head winds.

“I’ve done it two

times,” he said, adding he’s also flown to Inu-vik and back, Califor-nia and Arizona in the same type of plane.

“As pilots like to say, it’s a favourite be-cause it dives deeper and comes up drier.”

Luscombes were de-signed in 1939 to be better, faster and slow-er, all at the same time.

“These go as fast or faster, even at today’s standards,” Brown ex-plained.

“Since 1945/46 they still hold land speed

records.”There are some

shortcomings though, he admitted, noting they are tricky on the ground and finicky to handle.

And the cabin is very crammed for two people.

“But you don’t actu-ally ride in them, you kind of zip em’ on and away you go,” Brown chuckled as he encour-aged this reporter to climb in and see what it felt like to be inside.

Some nicknames for

Luscombes include flying sports car and homesick angel for the climb rate they have compared to other planes.

But you fall in love with them and put up with the crammed space if you are a big guy, he said.

Brown and his wife Lorraine came to Wil-liams Lake in 1970 be-cause she was hired as a radiology technician at the hospital.

He opened his own business — Len’s cyl-

inder head and engine rebuilding.

For him flying is a sport and nothing he’s ever intended to do professionally.

“A sports flyer can go whereever he wants,” he said. “Peo-ple who fly are a great group of people to fly with, too.”

Lorraine loved fly-ing and went every-where with him. She even made some spe-cial custom cushions for the plane.

“One for the floor

that had a big hole to allow the rudder ped-als to stick through and move while she was sleeping. And then she had a half round with a pillow built for her corner by the door.”

Almost nine years ago Brown lost Lor-raine to heart failure without them know-ing exactly why.

“She flew with me all the time,” he said, as he looked up in the sky. “I think she still does.”

LCSS TOUR BAND HEADS TO EUROPE

Gaeil Farrar photoAmanda Yonkman (left), Mackenzie Howse, and Noah Ryll were among the very excited group of Lake City Secondary School Tour Band students who headed off for a tour of Europe on Thursday afternoon. The students rehearsed the songs they will perform on the tour in their final practice night in an informal concert for family and friends at the Williams Lake cam-pus on Wednesday evening. After the practice they joked about how Mackenzie has been literally counting down the seconds until they leave since before Christmas. She started at somewhere around six million seconds and was down to 76,394 seconds to lift off when we spoke Wednesday evening. Directed by band teacher Laura Eilers, a total of 19 members of the tour band are making the trip which includes visits to Vienna, Salzburg, Venice, Florence and Rome. Amanda and Mackenzie are looking most forward to performing in Salzburg while Noah is looking forward to Rome. The band will play nine songs at each date, some with local band students.

Resurrected roast evolves into a familiar comfort foodOn Sunday I decided to try a

new recipe for cooking a roast. Cooking meat is not my

strength. I’m more about the sides and salads.

We had our son’s final game for midget house hockey Sun-day at 5:15 p.m. and his team was going for gold.

I still wanted to make a nice dinner so I found a recipe that said you could cook a roast in an hour.

But when we pulled it out at 4:20 p.m., hoping it would be done it was pretty raw.

Even though there are me-dium rare lovers in the house,

my husband insisted it was too rare. So we turned the oven off, left the roast and agreed we’d deal with it later.

Three hours later, home with a silver medal under our son’s belt, we popped the roast back in the oven.

Unfortunately we forgot

about it until 10 p..m and by then it was as tough as an old leather shoe.

I tucked it in the fridge, not wanting to waste food, and for-got about it.

That was until Wednesday when I stayed home with a head cold to rest up. Our middle son had been fighting the cold too. I figured it was time to make some soup for the both of us.

Recalling a favourite child-hood comfort food, although it usually came from a can, I set out to make some Scotch Broth.

I chopped an onion, four

carrots and the tough meat. Then I remembered I’d set

out to make soup on Monday night with a chicken carcass, so I poured that stock into the pot and picked out the bones.

Once the soup had simmered for about an hour, I added a cup of bot parley and some salt for taste.

By noon the soup was ready and I was happy with the re-sults.

As I was slurping it and could feel it warming my head and heart, I was reminded how simple things really need to be in this complicated world.

Then I remembered being home for lunch in Grade 1.

I had urged my mom to put milk in my canned vegetable soup because it was too hot.

“You don’t like milk in veg-etable soup,” she replied.

I convinced her I did and then sat there for several min-utes trying to get it down.

I haven’t had canned soup in decades. I really enjoy mak-ing it by scratch because soup helps resurrect cooking disas-ters.

Let’s talk about women’s day

Cards won’t be exchanged around the city this Sunday (March 8) on International Women’s Day, and that’s all right.

Because it’s the thought that counts — thought and action and change.

International Women’s Day is observed to varying degrees around the world, most mark-edly in eastern Europe, where celebrations include cards, flowers, gifts and good deeds. We could do the same here, but then again, another Valen-tine’s Day or another Mother’s Day might muddy the message. Hopefully we already acknowl-edge our love and affection for our mothers, daughters, grand-mothers, granddaughters, sis-ters, aunts, nieces, wives and girlfriends.

But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t pay attention each year when women’s day comes up on the calendar. Women’s issues are humankind’s issues, and we should forever strive for gender equality.

This occasion is a chance to carry on a conversation, one

that could lead any number of ways. The official United Na-tions women’s day theme for 2015 is Empowering Women, Empowering Humanity, and a major UN initiative right now is the He For She campaign urging men and boys to advo-cate for women and girls.

The UN’s themes should get us thinking and talking, and there is no shortage of other topics. Missing and murdered indigenous women come to mind, and gender violence in general. We’re seeing cavalier attitudes toward date rape and sexual assault on Canadian col-lege campuses and elsewhere. In a society that is still so atavistic, it’s more difficult to even start talking about more modern is-sues like gender disparity in politics and corporate board-rooms.

It shouldn’t be difficult. Be-cause those women we men-tioned a few paragraphs back, mothers, daughters, sisters, etc., those are the ones for whom we’re advocating, too.

- Black Press

In a recent speech, Premier Christy Clark quipped that while teenagers tend to be lazy, there is a limit.

If your kid is still on the couch after age 30, she said, he’s not a teenager any more. “He’s a New Democrat.”

Clark’s ‘get off the couch and get a job’ message is now being translated into government poli-cy. The B.C. government is using one of the few tools available to it to track down people who aren’t paying off their student loans, by linking defaulted debt to driver’s licence renewals.

There are “hardship” provi-sions for those who don’t have a job. ICBC will only refuse to re-new a driver’s licence or vehicle plates for those who have let their student debt go for a year with-out making some effort to deal with it.

Student debt collection is a long-standing problem for the province, with about $185 million currently on the books as default-ed and unpaid.

Students naturally move around after completing their studies, and once the six-month grace period for beginning to re-pay student loans expires, finding those who aren’t paying becomes a costly effort.

Historically governments sent defaulted debt to collection agen-cies. Last year $17.3 million was collected.

How big is student debt these days? The subject was discussed briefly in the legislature last week.

In question period, NDP lead-er John Horgan reminded the

government that tuition fees have doubled over the past decade, and cited a Bank of Montreal es-timate that the average university student emerges from a four-year program owing $35,000 in stu-dent loans.

With his usual modesty and tact, Advanced Education Minis-ter Andrew Wilkinson dismissed Horgan’s accusation that he is in-different to the plight of students. Wilkinson noted that the Bank of Montreal surveyed 602 students across Canada, and only 78 of them were in B.C.

“To clarify this, and to address the cackling chickens on the oth-er side, we have 430,000 students in our system,” Wilkinson said. “Some of them are part-time; some of them are on short cours-es. We have 180,000 students who are in the system full-time and eli-gible for student aid.

“Of those 180,000 students, 45,000 turn to the province for financial aid — meaning that 75 per cent of students, more than what was quoted on the CBC yesterday, go through their edu-cation without incurring debt through the provincial student aid program.”

Whatever the amount owing is for an individual, it’s a debt that will be more difficult to avoid paying. The province has long used the withholding of driving privileges to collect unpaid pro-vincial court fines, and that was recently extended to those who are 90 days in arrears on $25 or more worth of Lower Mainland bridge tolls.

This student debt collection

move follows efforts to match up post-secondary funding to areas of employment demand. In an era where misguided university professors use their positions to organize violent protests against job-creating projects, the mes-sages are similar.

Variations of this productivity theme are being heard from gov-ernments across North America.

The baby boomers are retiring. We are bringing in temporary foreign workers, not because of some right-wing plot, but be-cause too many people growing up in our society refuse to do an increasing range of jobs.

We have an education system — and media — that encourages people to complain and make demands to get what they want.

And we are seeing the results of all of this.

There was a U.S. president once who said, “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”

Wake up and shake up needed in industry board roomsTony Kryzanowski, in a re-

cent Logging and Sawmilling Journal article, “Taking action now to avoid hitting the fibre wall” starts with an encouraging prediction of a strong period of long-term growth in the Cana-dian forest industry.

Some of the following reasons are given: The increased exports to China (3,500 per cent in one decade), devalued Canadian dollar and technological chang-es (high speed computer grading in sawmills).

Also helping are impending changes to the National Build-ing Code of Canada allowing for all wood six-storey buildings along with new modular con-struction products like “cross laminated timbers and structur-al insulated panels.”

He goes on to give examples of how our forest industry is much more diversified in its ex-port markets and product mix.

The author describes some advances in the bio-economy, like the huge pellet plants and biomass energy plants being constructed in Eastern Canada and a potential bio fuel industry.

“Canada hasn’t even scratched the surface regarding the production of green gaso-line and diesel from wood fibre

yet which now appears as pos-sibly the next big leap in techno-logical advances.”

For one of the first times the market will not limit the growth of the forest industry but the main problem will be the sup-ply of raw materials due mainly to the impact of the pine beetle and global warming implica-tions.

He uses the term “hitting the fibre wall” to describe the im-pending shortage of wood fibre. The recent announcement of the Williams Lake TSA AAC reduc-tion is a good local example of the pending fibre shortage close to home.

He also reviews the need to take steps toward developing silviculture practices which help mitigate the impact of global

warming on the future establish-ment of our forests.

Scientists have been tracking growth and yield projections for seedlings and they have evidence that climate change is having an impact in some areas of refores-tation.

“Looking at maps being gen-erated by scientific experts on the likely impact on Canada’s commercial forest should global warming continue , there is only one word to describe the out-come, scary.”

The solution is the proper planting of species better able to adapt to the predicted warm-ing trend.

He also believes we should be encouraging more commercial tree farming on private land along with a well managed car-

bon and credit trading program. He ends with this warning.

“What concerns me is that while I hear a strong and growing voice from researchers on this issue, I hear very little coming from forest company board-rooms.

That has to change — and sooner rather than later — or forest companies might find themselves short of commer-cial fibre a lot sooner than they think if demand continues to grow and there is no action tak-en to adapt to climate change.”

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20You impress everyone with your creativity this week, Aries. Allow this creativity to be the inspiration behind projects you have been putting off of late.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Keep your goals relatively simple for the next few days, Taurus. You can benefit from the positive reinforcement of completing tasks and getting things done.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21

Gemini, you have been immersed in work and are starting to show the ill effects of keeping long hours. Now is a great time to take a few days off or enjoy a mini-vacation.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22

Cancer, you have a lot to get done, but resist the urge to micromanage every detail, as this could be a surefire path to burnout. You need to take a few breaths.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, avoid the temptation to get started on another new project. You already have plenty of other things on your plate. Finish those tasks before moving on to something new.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22

It is sometimes easy to miss the forest for the trees, Virgo. Try taking a step back so you can look at a puzzling project from a new perspective.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you may be searching for a new adventure, but try to appreciate the here and now as well. It’s easy to get swept up in fantasies, but don’t let them carry you too far away.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, you suspect that someone is hiding something, and that very well may be the case. Perhaps a welcome surprise is coming your way. Resist the urge to dig too deep.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21You can probably talk your way out of trouble, Sagittarius, but this time it’s better to let things play out. Keep conversations light and free from controversy.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20

Capricorn, find balance between your personal ambitions and things you have to accomplish at work and at home. Finding a middle ground is the best approach.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, you need a few extra people to contribute to a special task, but you do not know who to ask. If you think hard enough, you will know who you can depend on.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20

Your demeanor makes it easy for others to enjoy your company, and that will come in handy as your social schedule fills up in the days ahead.

Studio Theatre legacy of a passionate playwright

The Studio Theatre is celebrating its 60th anniversary year with two plays by the club’s founder and noted Canadian playwright, Gwen Pharis Ring-wood.

The plays Still Stands the House and Garage Sale start a two-week run at the Studio The-atre next week and do so with the involvement of many people whose lives were personally touched by the late playwright.

Directed by Cathie Hamm, who grew up friends with the Ring-wood family, Still Stands the House stars Sharon Hoffman as Hester, Amanda Le-Forte as Ruth, Curt Sprickerhoff as Bruce, and Tony Savile as Manning.

Directed by Sylvia Swift, Garage Sale stars Michael Rawluk who was mentored by Ring-wood as a youth, and Gwen’s daughter So-phia (Susan Ringwood) Schneider.

The same team is working behind the scenes for both plays.

The producer is Mary-Jo Hilyer; stage manager Brad Lawryk; assistant stage manager and props manager Merla Monroe; set de-signers Sheryl-Lynn Lewis and Curt Sprick-erhoff; lighting designer Micheal Hodgson and Alix Leary; lighting tech and sound design Alix Leary.

Gwen moved to Wil-liams Lake in the early

1950s with her husband Dr. Barney Ringwood.

Together they raised four children here and were actively involved with many other estab-lished and new families in the community when it came to promoting cultural activities in art, music, and theatre.

In Williams Lake Gwen continued the

playwriting career she started as a single uni-versity student. She wrote, directed, pro-duced, taught and participated in work-shops that continu-ally brought people of many talents together, explains Sophia.

She says her mother never tired of her in-volvement with the

theatre and with young people she mentored and inspired.

“They in turn in-spired her to keep up with a changing world,” Sophia says. “To this day The Williams Lake Studio Theatre Soci-ety involves children and grandchildren of people Gwen enjoyed working with in so many varied ways. I know she would feel deeply moved by be-ing remembered in this way for this anniversary year.”

The two plays se-lected for the 60th an-niversary year reflect Ringwood’s work at the beginning and toward the end of her playwrit-ing career, explains So-phia.

She says Still Stands the House was written in 1938 when Gwen was a young, single univer-sity student working on her masters degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Still Stands the House is a moving and dark re-flection on the difficulty of life during the Great Depression and dust bowl years.

Both directors Hamm and Swift, have worked behind the scenes on various plays and are directing for the Studio Theatre for the first time.

Hamm, says she started reading Gwen’s plays over a year ago and realized that when she read Still Stands the House she just had to direct this play.

“When I read the play it jumped into my head,” says director

Hamm, of her vision for bringing the sad im-plications of this play to life on stage.

Garage Sale is a more uplifting play about an elderly couple that Schneider says her mother wrote in 1980 and dedicated to her father.

“You just get caught up in an elderly couples’ world,” says Swift.

“And learn what is real and not real,” adds Sophia.

Sophia and her sib-

lings have given the Stu-dio Theatre the gift of permission to produce Garage Sale without royalties and for the first time in a commu-nity theatre production.

The plays will be staged on the evenings of March 11 to 14 and March 18 to 21 with a matinee on March 21 as well as the evening per-formance.

Tickets are available at About Face Photog-raphy, The Open Book, and Realm of Toys

Photo submittedThe late Gwen Pharis Ringwood, who chose to raise her family in Williams Lake with her husband Dr. Barney Ringwood, was a noted Canadian playwright who inspired the com-munity to start the thriving Studio Theatre which celebrates its 60th anniversary this year. In keeping with that celebration the Studio Theatre is starting a two-week run of Gwen’s plays Still Stands the House and Garage Sale next week. Both plays will be staged each performance date.

Randy Hoehne photoRandy Hoehne captures an image of the first trum-peter swans to grace the waters surrounding Scout Island this week. B.C.’s trumpeter swan is blue-list-ed because rela-tively few pairs are known to breed in the province, and key wintering habi-tats are vulnerable to development and oil pollution.

Who’s my friend?Recently, The Salvation

Army here in Williams Lake had a � ood. We received approximately 1000 gallons of water in our Drop-in Center. Well like anyone else we roll up our sleeves and got to it. You know, clean it up and wished you had more hands to do it. So as I started contemplating the task at hand I thought of friends and family. Those are the people we normally call when the going gets tough. Now I realize that some of you are fortunate enough to live close to family and friends, yet there are some of you who have left that security because of job placements like myself.

You know that got me thinking about what a true friend is. A true friend has your back no matter what obstacle you are facing. The Bible tells us in Proverbs 27:10 “Never to abandon a friend – either yours or your father’s. Then in your time of need, you won’t have to ask your relatives for assistance. It is better to go to a neighbour than to a relative who lives far

away.” So I called some of my

adopted family and friends (my church family) for help and guidance. And quickly we started cleaning up the mess, hauling out the damaged furniture; the soaked drywall and carpet. Then it was time to appraise the damages and get quotes. As we were doing this task, I was totally taken aback by people coming forward, from my neighbourhood (friends of

The Salvation Army) donating money. I became intrigued when a business neighbour gave us materials for our restoration at cost. I was told by a third party that the owner was a devoted Catholic (church friend from another church – a person I do not even know).

The Bible tells us in John 15:12-13 where Jesus’ says “I command you to love each other in the same way that I love you. And here is how to measure it – the greatest love is shown when people lay down their lives for their friends.”

Well folks, the fact is that Jesus did lay down his life for you and for me. He bore the punishment of our sins by dying on a cross for us. Now that’s a true friend!

Not only did God send His Son to die for us, He also promised in Deuteronomy 31:6 that “He will neither fail you nor forsake you.” He is your friend! He is always waiting for you to call on Him. So do not wait any longer call on Him today.

First Nation education addressed

School District 27 is one of five school dis-tricts in B.C. selected to help develop a new Ministry of Educa-tion provincial curric-ulum guide for First Nations students.

More than 80 rep-resentatives from School District 27 board and staff, First Nation leaders, Cari-boo Regional District, Williams Lake City Council, RCMP, Min-istry of Education and others participated in a conference toward that goal held at the Signal Point conven-tion centre, Monday.

During the after-noon portion of the convention, facilita-tor Kaleb Child asked the group to focus on positive actions that could be implemented to improve education for First Nations and

all students.Child is the School

District 85 District Principal First Na-tions Programs and is facilitating the five provincial conferences on behalf of the Min-istry of Education.

The first conference was held in Tsaxis (Fort Rupert) on Feb. 4.

The others will be held in Burnaby, Cranbrook, and Kelowna.

He said the vision for the conferences is to further define Ab-original perspectives and world-views in the classroom, strat-egize further engage-ment opportunities for all learners and to explore regional ex-amples of excellence.

In addition to rais-ing the profile of the changes coming to the BC curriculum, Child said one of the pri-mary outcomes of the

five sessions will be to produce a comprehen-sive teacher’s guide that will identify com-mon themes for edu-cational practice.

He said the publi-cation will also build on the relationships between communities and schools to en-sure teachers are well equipped to respond to the expectation of

incorporating local First Nations perspec-tives into classrooms for all students.

He said School District 27 was cho-sen for participation in this review process because it has already adopted a number of innovative programs to inspire and encour-age First Nation stu-dents in learning.

Why You Need Vitamin C and Lysine for Heart Health and More...

Vitamin C is arguably the sin-

gle most important water soluble anti-oxidant in the hu-man body. Antioxi-dants play a key role in protecting cells against free radicals,

which can cause damage and play a role in heart disease, cancer and other diseases.

It’s tragic that researchers are unaware that high doses of vitamin C and lysine cannot only prevent, but reverse athero-sclerosis in coronary and other arteries in the body. Vitamin C is needed for the manufacture of collagen, the glue that holds cells together. A lack of vitamin C means poor collagen, resulting in cracks appearing between coronary cells thus setting the stage for fatal blood clot.

Recently, Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, made this monumental dis-covery. He took photos of the retinal arteries and then gave patients 6,000 milligrams of vitamin C and 5,000 of lysine (lysine adds strength to coronary arteries just like steel rods increase the strength of concrete). A year later he re-peated the pictures. To his surprise, he found atherosclerosis fading away.

Millions of North Americans also suffer from osteoarthritis. Without sufficient vitamin C to produce collagen, a major component of cartilage, bone eventually grinds on bone. There would be fewer joint replacements if more vitamin C were available to produce healthy colla-gen.

Rheumatoid arthritis, the inflammatory type, also requires large doses of vitamin C. Every moment of the day our bodies are using oxygen to keep us alive. But oxi-dation results in metabolic ash, known as “free radicals”, which are believed to trig-ger an inflammatory reaction in joints. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to reduce damaging free-radicals.

Patients often appear surprised when I tell them that vitamin C will help them keep their teeth a lifetime. By age 65 one in five North Americans has lost all their teeth and many of their teeth were nor-mal. Rather, it was the gums that could no longer hold teeth firmly in place in part due to inadequate amounts of vita-min C. This vitamin is needed in large amounts to produce healthy collagen, the glue that holds cells together and keeps gums healthy. Without good mor-tar bricks fall apart and the same happens when gums lacking collagen lose their grip on teeth.

The essential amino acid lysine is probably best known for its use in those with herpes simplex infections but several other bene-fits have been ascribed to the molecule, including favourable effects on blood pressure and stroke prevention but also a positive influence on mood and anxiety.

In addition to providing healthy collagen production and a healthy cardiovascular system, vitamin C and lysine supplemen-tation helps support:

• Immune system health • Vision • Teeth and gums • Wound healing • Bones and cartilage • Recovery from shingles • Recovery from herpes outbreaks

This is why I’ve been taking high doses of vitamin C and lysine for the last 16 years following a heart attack. I believe it saved my life. Medi-C Plus™, containing high doses of vitamin C and lysine, is available in powder and capsules.

vwww.wltribune.comCDC hosts ice fishing outing

The sky was blue and the weather was unseasonably warm for the Cariboo Chilcotin Child Development Centre’s fourth annual

ice fishing outing for clients and their fami-lies Saturday at Chim-ney Lake.

The first year the event was held at Du-gan Lake but for the past three years Chim-ney Lake has been

home to the outing where staff, volunteers, and family pitch in to drill holes in the ice, help students set up and manage their fishing lines, keep a fire going on shore to warm up cold hands and bodies, and put on the lunch.

Among the volun-teers were Conservation Officers Sgt. Len Butler and Const. Justyn Bell.

About 30 people par-ticipated in the event seeking to catch a few

Kokanee for the frying pan.

Unfortunately no fish were caught but it was a great day for an outing.

“This year we had a lot of new families come out which was nice to see,” says CDC supported child de-velopment consultant Sherry Kahanyshn who organized the event with CDC child and youth care worker Jose Salazar.

Conservation Officer Sgt. Len Butler helps Alexis McComber with her fishing line.

proximately 25 million cubic metres of tail-ings and waste-waters to downstream surface waters.

Since the spill re-searchers have been engaged in looking at potential impacts of the tailings pond breach on

the Quesnel Lake sys-tem which represents some of British Colum-bia’s most important sockeye salmon habitat.

Bull sale coming up

Students in Arin Buller’s Chilcotin Road elementary re-source room are get-ting a jump on their bicycle riding skills.

The students, who all have various special needs, have been given the opportunity to

ride in the school gym Wednesdays all winter as part of their Physi-cal Education.

“It’s something they can do without as-sistance,” says Buller of the many benefits of riding, such as im-proved balance, muscle tone and brain devel-opment.

“Their bodies fight

them to do anything, so it’s exhausting. Their little successes are like climbing huge mountains and we cel-ebrate all their achieve-ments.”

The resource room offers a special class-

room available for stu-dents across the district where the focus is on life skills.

Buller says working with the students has many rewards.

“They have so much love to give, and they

try so hard.”Some of the bikes

used in the program are older, so if any-one is interested in donating a bike to the class, please contact the school at 250-392-5455.

Greg Sabatino photosThe Williams Lake Blue Fins’ Taylor Fitzgerald swims the 200-metre butterfly Sunday during the swim club’s annual Cariboo Dental Swim Meet. Fitzgerald took seven first-place results in multiple events throughout the weekend.

Blue Fins a powerhouse at home meetFeaturing 110 swimmers,

including 60 from out of town, the competition was fierce last weekend during the Williams Lake Blue Fins’ annual Cariboo Den-tal Swim Meet.

“The meet was a great success with all the swim-mers having a great time and swimming fast,” said Blue Fins’ head coach Chad Webb. “So many best times to mention and all great swims this weekend by so many different swimmers. I was particularly impressed with how well the meet ran with so many volunteers and support from the com-munity.”

Of note, swimmers who competed at their very first swim meet were: Parker Barbie Bruce, Journey Campbell, Steven Camp-bell, Eric Haseldine, Helen Herman, Ashlynn Jennings, Evie MacDougall, Cristell Panida, Ashton Petruk, Mekena Petruk, Dane Ra-mier, Livia Seabourne, Au-brey Silver, Quentin Silver, Brett Jones and Harmony Lycette.

Webb said notable swims were from Kenna Saunders in the 200-metre butter-fly making her first ‘AAA’ provincial time with a first-place result.

Cole Turner, meanwhile, achieved his second quali-fying time as he swam the 100-metre backstroke to a second-place finish and a ‘AA’ provincial time.

Liam McCreight fin-ished off the weekend with

a spectacular swim in the 100-metre Individual Med-ley Subway Showdown, earning himself a Subway cash card for the win.

Shaylee Stewart’s 100-metre breaststroke was also a great swim, Webb said, as she inched her way closer to be within a few seconds of a ‘AA’ time in a tough age group.

Webb added both Brett Jones and Steven Campbell swam strong meets, far ex-ceeding his expectations.

Stampeders to challenge Regals for Coy Cup berth

One team will be chopped the weekend of Friday, March 13 when the Williams Lake Stampeders chal-lenge the Powell River Regals for a berth at the 2015 Coy Cup Se-nior Men’s ‘AA’ Cham-pionship.

“It’s going to be an unlucky day for some-body,” joked Stamped-ers president Marko Zurak of the Friday the 13th reference, not-ing the series will be a best-of-three.

Game one goes March 13, followed by game two March 14 and, if necessary, game three on March

15. All three games will be played in Pow-ell River.

“They have a decent team, and I think it will be fairly good games,” Zurak said. “We’re hopeful we can go in there and do what we need to do. It would be nice to get another shot at Terrace.”

The Terrace River Kings recently defeat-ed the Stampeders in the Central Interior Hockey League play-off finals in a gruelling three-game set.

In the other senior men’s backdoor chal-lenge for a Coy Cup slot the Fort St. John Flyers defeated White-horse to earn a spot.

During last year’s

Coy Cup Champion-ship, hosted in Wil-liams Lake, the Stam-peders defeated the River Kings in the final to claim its third Coy Cup in franchise history.

During this year’s 2014/15 CIHL regular season the Stampeders finished with a 15-win, one-loss record.

The Regals play an independent schedule under the supervision of the BC Amateur Hockey Association, which qualified them for a chance to play at the provincial champi-onship.

This year’s Coy Cup will be hosted by the Fort Nelson Yeti from March 24-28.

Bullets win interclub challenge with VortexA season long com-

petition encourag-ing all speed skaters to strive toward their personal bests came to a close last Thursday for the Williams Lake Bullets Speed Skating Association.

The Bullets record-ed a win during the In-terclub Personal Best Challenge against the Vernon Vortex.

Racers from both clubs were timed once a month at a set dis-tance and, using a mathematical formula based on net times, in-cremental points were awarded individually for skaters who made the most improvement on their personal best time.

All skaters were awarded points for participation. Month-ly club totals based on individual results were

then tabulated, re-sulting with Williams Lake accumulating the most points dur-

ing this year’s skating season.

“The idea came about at last year’s

BC Speed Skating As-sociation AGM,” said Monica Johnson, as-sistant coach of the

Bullets. “I got to know Mike Hall, coach of the Vernon Vortex. He suggested the In-

terclub Challenge as a way to motivate the kids in both clubs, and to provide a monthly race environment to help prepare the rac-ers for sanctioned meets.”

No stranger to com-petition, Hall is a for-mer Olympian, com-peting for Canada at the 1994 Lillehammer Olympics.

“With credentials like that, you leap to take his suggestion,” Johnson said. “Mike has been an incredible support and mentor to our coaching team.”

Johnson added the interclub competition achieved its objective.

All skaters made very significant im-provements in their personal best times, and became more comfortable and look forward to timed rac-

es.“We also recognize

the skater each month, within our club, who has made the most im-provement with their personal best time,” she said.

Additional points were also awarded to skaters who achieve personal bests at sanc-tioned meets.

Johnson said though improvements in their racing is im-portant, the focus with the skaters remains on participation and fun.

“We’re committed to providing a sup-portive environment for kids to improve their fitness and par-ticipate in sports in a fun environment,” she said.

PLAN NUMBER 5-3-642 CONTEMPORARY

RANCHER

Rustic exterior details lend this contemporary rancher the air of a charming country cottage.

Solid logs support the gabled roof over the front porch, and are repeated on both sides of the double garage. Shingles fill the three gables, one of which boasts an attractive arched window.

Even the panelled garage door, with its narrow arched windows, exudes character.

Inside, this three-bedroom rancher boasts a practical floor plan with a bonus: a 398-square-foot games room over the garage.

The covered front entry opens to a compact foyer that leads directly into the multi-purpose great room. This open living space has a stylish gas fireplace in one corner, as well as space for either a free-standing or built-in entertainment unit.

French doors open onto a covered porch, ideal for year-round grilling.

The adjacent kitchen includes everything the contemporary cook might desire, including a raised eating bar, a full complement of modern appliances and a convenient pantry.

While simple meals for one or two people are likely to be served at the eating bar, the dining area next to the kitchen has plenty of room for more formal dinners with family and friends. Natural light will stream into the dining area through windows on three sides.

From the kitchen, a door leads to the double garage, passing a storage room, and the laundry on the way.

A staircase from the foyer climbs to the games room

over the garage. This space could serve as a home office, for storage or for playing games such as billiards or table tennis.

The bedroom wing is located to the right of the main entry. Two smaller bedrooms face the street, while the master bedroom suite overlooks the back garden.

The master suite has a walk-in closet, a niche for a television and an elegant corner en-suite bathroom with a soaker tub. Another three-piece bathroom serves the secondary bedrooms.

This home measures 50 feet wide by 59 feet, 6 inches deep, for a total living area of 1,610 square feet.

Plans for design 5-3-642 are available for $725 (set of 5), $820(set of 8) and

$896 for a super set of 10. Also add $35.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $60.00 outside of B.C. Please add 12% H.S.T., 13% H.S.T. Or 5% G.S.T (where applicable) to both the plan price and Priority charges.
