Bike symposium delegates impressed

Praise for Williams Lake dom-inated the conversation as riders from the weekend’s provincial mountain bike symposium gath-ered for a final group ride to De-sous Mountain Monday.

Six years after he moved away

from Williams Lake and his post as president of the Williams Lake Cycling Club, Sal Demare said he was thrilled to see how far the local trail network has devel-oped.

“When I left we were in the be-ginning stages of legalizing the trails,” Demare said as he loaded his bike into a trailer provided for

the riders. “The club has taken it and run

with it, created a consortium and what they’ve done is world-class.”

Demare praised the whole town for putting on a great sym-posium as he raved about the venues, the hospitality and busi-ness support.

Justin Truelove of the Interna-

tional Mountain Biking Associa-tion of Canada said the sympo-sium was a meeting of the best and brightest minds the industry has to offer.

“It was a great way for us to come together and participate,” Truelove said. This issue may contain the

WASTE WISE PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF WILLIAMS LAKE

“We could see where the industry’s come in the last few years, see where we want to go and what our focus is going to be moving for-ward.”

Truelove hails from Ontario, but said in comparison, mountain biking in B.C. is a cul-ture.

“From kids all the way up to adults, par-ents and even retirees, mountain biking is a great common denomi-nator that brings us all together,” he said.

Truelove arrived in Williams Lake last Tuesday, in preparation for running a trail build-ing workshop Thursday and Friday.

“We were riding around with Thomas Schoen, doing some as-sessments of trails and coming up with a site to build on,” Truelove said. “We had a great experi-ence on the trails here and had a great work-shop and build site on Fox Mountain.”

During the sympo-sium University of North Carolina profes-sor Zac Cole presented results from a study he and a colleague did on

mountain biking tour-ism in North America.

“We surveyed 1,200 respondents across Can-ada and the U.S.,” Cole said. “The findings dif-fered from others in that the age demographic was slightly older than expected. We looked at how many days people typically travel, how much they spend.”

From their research Cole is hoping the next step will be to help pro-vide direction to com-munities in B.C. want-ing to further develop mountain bike tourism.

“Helping them figure out what type of attri-butes draw people in, the number of trails, ac-commodation, those are the kinds of things we are working on,” Cole said.

One of the biggest challenges for commu-nities is to build aware-ness for each destination and create a point of dif-ference, said Mountain Bike Tourism Associa-tion’s executive director Martin Littlejohn.

“At the association we really promote the diversity of mountain biking experiences in the province.”

Trails themselves need to be high qual-ity so people will keep

coming back and have exceptional experiences, he added.

“Williams Lake cer-tainly demonstrated that during the weekend. A lot of people who had not been here before were really impressed,” Littlejohn said.

Credit needs to go to the Williams Lake Cy-cling Club and Cariboo Mountain Bike Con-sortium for developing an extensive and diverse trail network, he added.

Canmore, Alta. busi-ness owner Wanda Bog-dane found the sympo-sium refreshing.

“We had the ability to share ideas with people who understand ex-actly what’s going on in

the industry,” Bogdane said. “They understand the logistics with policy, land managers with the industry, the demo-graphics.”

In Alberta, she said, the challenge is deal-ing with provincial land

managers where there’s a real division of camps.

“Some people very much understand the appreciative compo-nent of recreational activities while others have a closed minded perspective and don’t

understand the connec-tion that is fostered with wildlife in the outdoors with the stewardship that results with moun-tain biking.”

As for the local riding, Bogdane said it was ev-erything she enjoys.

“We love technical, poppy, flowy combina-tions with really nice steep patches and it seems to have every-thing,” she said.

Jordan Hammond moved to Williams Lake last May to work as the Cariboo Regional District’s economic de-velopment officer, but before that frequently visited the lakecity to mountain bike with friends.

The symposium was a fantastic way to get professionals through-out the industry to Wil-liams Lake to experi-ence the riding and talk about where the sport is going in B.C. in terms of building the tour-ism economy in smaller and larger communities, Hammond said.

“Williams Lake is awesome, it’s a real gem,” Hammond add-ed. “Pretty well every year my friends and I in Prince George would have our annual pil-grimage here.”

One of the delegates who travelled the fur-thest to attend the sym-posium was Alan Blank who works as a bike guide and trail builder in Switzerland.

Mountain biking is a lot more about commu-nity here, Blank said.

“I like that. They are involving all the guys — the land managers, the trail builders, tourism, as well as First Nations, which I was very happy about.”

The symposium ses-sions were jam-packed with information so it was nice to get out for group rides each day, he added.

And the food was amazing, he said.

“I haven’t seen any-thing like it, homemade food at an event and the zero waste management aspect made it a sustain-able eco-adventure. It was so nice to see they set that up for an event this size. We wouldn’t do that down in Switzer-land, which is sad.”

Blank said he hopes to attend a Ride Con-gress in Switzerland on Oct. 15 and 16 so he can compare the two indus-try events.

Around 160 people attended the sympo-sium.

The Williams Lake Tri-bune/Weekend Advisor reached out to federal candidates in the upcom-ing Oct. 19 election in the Cariboo-Prince George riding.

This is the second set of answers to five ques-tions posed to candi-dates, which will be pub-lished leading up to the election.

Each candidate was given a 200-word limit per answer.

What do you feel is the Federal

Government’s role in First Nations Land

Claims?

Green Party candidate

Richard Jaques

I feel the federal gov-ernment must make a genuine effort to engage the local First Nations

in meaningful discus-sions regarding consent to share the resources in their traditional and an-cestral territories.

I want to be that con-duit for communication, First Nations must be at the table from day one, they must be equal par-ties when resources ex-traction proposals are put forward that follow the guidelines in the re-cent Tsilhqot’in Supreme Court decision.

Conservative Party candidate

Todd Doherty

The federal govern-ment should be a leader at the table, and has worked with the province of BC, First Nations, and com-munity groups to negoti-ate a deal that works for all parties involved.

Strong partnerships among Aboriginal peo-ple, governments and the private sector are

emerging as outstanding land claims and treaty is-sues are addressed, and self-government agree-ments are negotiated. Land claims and self-government agreements achieve:

• greater certainty over rights to land and re-sources contributing to a positive investment cli-mate and creating greater potential for economic development and growth

• greater control for

Aboriginal people and Northerners over the de-cisions that affect their lives.

While there is still a long way to go, I want to ensure treaties are ne-gotiated by ensuring that we have a strong voice in Ottawa that is able to represent our region, and bring forward their con-cerns to the negotiating table.

NDP Partycandidate

Trent Derrick

An important factor in land claims negotiations is trust.

With Tom Mulcair as Prime Minister, the federal government will build a Nation-to-Na-tion relationship with First Nations.

FEDERAL ELECTION:

Candidates share views on land claims

Green Party candidate

Richard Jaques

Conservative Party candidate

Todd Doherty

New Democratic Party candidate

Trent Derrick

Getting beyond words and taking concrete action on key issues is an impor-tant step in building trust. This includes the NDP commit-ment to call an in-quiry in missing and murdered aboriginal women within the first 100 days in of-fice, action on hous-ing, healthcare and education. A Tom Mulcair government will implement the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indige-nous Peoples, and act on the findings of the Truth and Reconcilia-tion Commission.

Christian Heritage Party candidateAdam De Kroon

Unfortunately I think oftentimes the government com-pletely ignores the First Nations and doesn’t even listen to what they would have to say. I would say one of the big-gest things that the government needs do is to improve commu-nication and main-tain an open dialogue with First Nations.

Independent candidate

Sheldon Clare

T r a d i t i o n a l l y speaking, the federal government was the highest authority in negotiations with First Nations across Canada. However, since Trudeau introduced the Charter in 1982, the Supreme Court has become more and more involved in First Nations issues, specifically land claims and rights issues. Also, given the lack of treaties in British Columbia, First Nations land claims in our region involve the province as well.

Politicians at all levels of government have shrunk away from this issue for far too long, and it is disrespectful that the current federal gov-

ernment is more like-ly to call its lawyers before any First Na-tions leadership when a disagreement arises.

Local MPs and the governments they support are supposed to exhibit leader-ship, and if elected, I intend to do so by reaching out to First Nations leaders in our area so we can develop a strong, re-spectful relationship.

Goodwill should be the starting point, not a last resort.

Without this, the federal government will continue to be adversarial regarding First Nations land claims, as well as oth-er issues affecting na-tive peoples.

Apolitical candidate

Gordon Campbell

Not less than the messenger plus having a mediator that rep-resents First Nations above all else.

Like it or not First Nations are the poors’ best friends.

Please for God’s sake become apolitical as soon as possible.

Liberal Party candidate

Tracy Calogheros

The federal gov-ernment must play a significant role in the resolution of First Na-tions land claims. The first step towards re-solving any land claims

is to establish a degree of trust between gov-ernment (federal and provincial) and First Nations. Meaningful negotiations on land claims (or any other issues involving First Nations people) won’t go anywhere without trust. The Conserva-tives’ fighting with First Nations in the courts hasn’t built trust.

The Conservatives making policy chang-es and economic and resource-development decisions without consulting First Na-tions hasn’t built trust. Given the track record of the Harper Conser-vatives over the last decade, I can’t imag-ine any First Nations

person or group ever would trust the Con-servative government on any front.

If Canada is to have any hope of regaining the trust of our First Nations people, we must embrace them genuinely as equals. We must dispel the myths of misinformed stereotypes which breed mistrust and are barriers to collabora-tion.

We must prove to First Nations, by what we say and by what we do, that we respect their culture and their institutions and that we are sincere in our efforts to work to-gether with them to resolve all of these is-sues.

Palliative careIn-home end of life careAs a registered nurse with twenty-� ve years of palliative nursing experience, I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself as well as the professional palliative care services I am offering.

The need for medical palliative care is only increasing as the Canadian population ages and more people wish to stay at home for end of life care. It is my aim to support clients and families who desire a “good death” at home.

I offer quality and compassionate in home nursing care and respite for family members. I am also able to act as a liaison between the client and physicians, pharmacists, home care nurses and family members, as required.

My nursing career has focused on geriatrics, home care, and “outpost” nursing. I have extensive experience working in isolated and multicultural communities and understand the unique challenges these environments can pose. I have also completed Victoria Hospice Society’s “Medical Care of the Dying” courses, which have afforded me invaluable insight, knowledge and hands on experience. Hospice staff and faculty continue to inspire and direct me when dif� cult situations arise.

Gov’t at fault on mail delivery

Seems to me this federal election has been going on forever. This time around I wonder how much influence

technology — online alternate news sources, Facebook, Twitter — will have on the out-come. And what about cell phones and call display, are they having any impact on accura-cy of political poll taking? Will we ever know?

***I haven’t heard from anyone who is de-

lighted with the new mail delivery system and I’m astonished by the number of disgruntled folks who are blaming Canada Post for the loss of the house delivery, not realizing CP is a Crown Corporation, founded in 1867, not a private company. Don’t blame Canada Post,

blame the federal government that called the shots.

***It used to be,

long ago, in war-time, that the rul-ers sent young

men to fight other young men while women, children and older men stayed home, remain-ing relatively unscathed. The latter often pros-pered. Over the centuries men have invented bigger and better war tools and modern war-riors can be responsible for mass killings with-out putting themselves in much danger. The latest example of how this works is the recent air attack that destroyed an Afghan hospital killing 22 staffers and patients including four doctors and three children. A U.S. aircraft is suspected to be the culprit. Doctors Without Borders, the charity that runs the hospital, calls it a war crime and is demanding an inde-pendent investigation.

Question: Is this act OK because it came from a civilized nation?

***Canada is a multicultural nation, dating

back centuries to when the first foreigners came to this country. Our cultures and reli-gions range from those practiced by aborigi-nal people to those practiced by refugees and/or immigrants who arrived yesterday.

The aboriginals were tolerant of the new-comer’s ways, and succeeding generations of Canadians have tolerated, if not embraced, the many cultures that make up the melting pot that is our country. Why are we getting antsy now?

Celebrating small business month

October is Small Business Month – our chance to recognize the many contributions that small businesses

make in Williams Lake and across B.C.In our province, 98 per cent of businesses

are designated as small businesses and more than one million British Columbians are em-ployed by them. They are the backbone of the Williams Lake economy.

The Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce is a vital partner for local small businesses. The Chamber represents the busi-ness community by providing services and benefits, and provides a unified voice for the

business commu-nity.

The Chamber also acts as an advocate to help member businesses resolve issues or problems, or point

them in the right direction if the need arises.During Small Business Month, the Wil-

liams Lake Chamber has a number of events for members and potential members. For ex-ample:

• Oct. 22: Community Futures 30th anni-versary celebration open house, 266 Oliver St., 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

• Oct. 29: Williams Lake Chamber AGM and election of officers, Signal Point Confer-ence Centre, 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m.

• Oct. 29: Board social with B.C. Chamber board chairman Brant Hasanen, Laughing Loon restaurant, 5 to 7 p.m.

Another voice for Williams Lake businesses in the downtown core is the Williams Lake Central Business Improvement Area, or BIA, which acts as a networking and lobby group.

The BIA was created by local merchants to assist in the revitalization and promotion of downtown and its businesses.

Our government is working hard to make B.C. the most small-business friendly jurisdic-tion in Canada. It’s why we created the Min-istry of Small Business and Red Tape Reduc-tion. This month, join me in thanking small businesses in Williams Lake. Small business owners help build a strong economy, and a strong economy ensures that Williams Lake and communities throughout B.C. remain vi-brant.

Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for the Cariboo-Chilcotin.

Strategically or not, voteCanadians are lucky, in many ways,

when it comes to our electoral system, because we get to make choices.

We can choose to vote for something we want. But we can also choose to vote ‘strategically,’ that is to say, vote against something we don’t want. The concept of strategic voting will have some part to play in this month’s federal election. It comes with a multi-party, first-past-the-post electoral system.

It’s difficult to say what impact strate-gic voting will have in Nanaimo-Lady-smith, for a couple of reasons. The latest polls have shown enough separation lo-cally that voters can be reasonably con-fident their ballot won’t ‘split the vote,’ though we know, at the same time, that polls can be unreliable.

Another consideration is the redrawn electoral boundaries. Nanaimo-Lady-smith doesn’t have a voting history, be-cause it’s a brand-new riding. ‘Vote-split-ting’ could be a major factor here, or it could have a minimal impact, and that

sense of unknown might lead to people voting strategically, just in case.

Some would argue that strategic vot-ing is contradictory to the tenets of democracy. We don’t believe that to be true. Individual voters have the right to decide how they want to vote, and why they want to vote that way, for their per-sonal reasons. If voting against a partic-ular party — rather than voting for their preferred party — will get them closer to what they want, then maybe, for some Canadians, that’s enough.

And as for those who vote for what they want, and demand the very best Canada and won’t compromise and don’t have a second choice, how could anyone argue that those people are wasting their vote?

Because here’s the thing about stra-tegic voting. Sure, it ensures we’re not ‘wasting’ our vote. But really, the only wasted votes are the ones that never get cast.

Trees-on-farmland program ‘not expanding’

A British-based manufacturing company is considering switch-ing its B.C. tree-planting program from farmland to areas deforested by fire or pine beetles.

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc added another three farms to its B.C. land holdings over the sum-mer, prompting an accusation in the legislature that it was breaking its promise to suspend planting

trees on farmland. The company halted the program in June after more than 10,000 ha of farmland in the Peace, Prince George and Cariboo regions were acquired to use as carbon offsets for the com-pany’s world-wide operations.

Delta South MLA Vicki Hun-tington released title documents for a 320 ha grain and cattle farm purchased near Dawson Creek in July, three weeks after the compa-ny, now known by its initials RB, said the program was halted.

Asked about the timing of the purchase, RB issued a statement saying the company had three signed agreements to buy more B.C. farms when it “paused” its tree planting program to review it. Local governments have objected to productive farmland being re-forested, and the effect it would have on farming communities.

“No action has been taken on these properties as RB continues to consult British Columbians on the future of this program,” the

company said, adding discussions have continued with neighbour-ing landowners, provincial, local governments and MLAs.

“Many have highlighted the need for reforestation on lands that have been depleted by the pine beetle or wildfires,” the com-pany said. “It is an option we are exploring.”

Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick said he had a presenta-tion from RB, with suggestions about alternatives to planting

more trees on farmland.“I’m not at liberty yet to dis-

close those because they were giv-en to us confidentially but I have reason to be optimistic,” Letnick said.

RB’s website says it has planted more than seven million trees in B.C. Letnick said the company has planted most of the 10,000 ha of farmland it acquired up un-til this spring, and the three new acquisitions bring the total to 12,000 ha.

Grazing Horizons✦ THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICLUTURE ✦

Applied Sustainable Ranching program coming to TRULeRay Haynes

Students have a unique opportunity com-ing soon to Thompson Rivers University, helping to redefine the future of ranching and farming in the Cariboo and beyond.

A two-year program, Applied Sustainable Ranching is designed to attract students from places around the prov-ince and around the world, said David Zirn-helt, chair of the industry advisory board and Cari-boo Cattlemen’s Associa-tion member.

“The response has been wonderful — this engages people immedi-ately,” Zirnhelt said, add-ing that the underlying message of this program is that a ranch or a farm should stand on its own.

“They have to be struc-tured to be profitable. It’s more than a lifestyle: we expect a modern business to use modern tools.

“It’s important to us for our local students to be able to access this, which is backed up by people like TRU Grit champion Brian Garland. Most of us have a reverence for food, land and the life-style of ranching and we think we have something to offer the world here.”

He explained that the idea for the course at TRU came from the Cari-boo Cattlemen’s Asso-ciation wanting to tweak their process.

“We realized we needed a different skill set, and did a series of

workshops; we looked at things like marketing, what a finished animal might look like and the role of genetics. For 50 years the main industry has been raising cattle for feedlot operation,” he said. “We wanted to see if there were other ways to use our resources.”

When they concluded that year-long process, he said that while sit-ting around talking after visiting neighbourhood ranches who hosted their workshop facilitators, they concluded that they really needed to have a course here instead of sending local kids some-where else.

“We decided that a two-year program was something we should have here; we wanted TRU to formalize it and approached the dean of science and the Williams Lake campus. They were very interested.”

Applied Sustainable Ranching curriculum co-ordinator and local farmer Lynda Archibald said that it is the only program of

its kind in B.C., and that the goal is a January 2016 start date. “When I first heard of this, I thought, wow: what an opportu-nity for young people in our area, and for young First Nations people,” Ar-chibald said.

“This area is so rich, not just in ranching, but in other agricultural ven-tures such as farming. This area grows great potatoes, corn, berries, apples and superb veg-etable crops.

“This practical course is based on academic and scientific theory background. It prepares students to begin a ca-reer as a ranch worker, manager or owner,” Ar-chibald said. “It will give them a good feel from the ground up what it’s like to work and operate a ranch.”

Courses in Applied Sustainable Ranching include the financial or business end — things like strategy, costs, mar-kets, human resources and regulation of land re-sources, she explained,

adding that students will learn about sustainable grazing, water manage-ment, wildlife interac-tions, traditional and me-dicinal plants and urban agricultural interface.

“They will learn about entrepreneurial diversifi-cation, including different kinds of livestock, green-houses, vegetables, fruit and honey production, as well as a section on farm stores, value-added prod-uct and agri-tourism,” Archibald said. “Hands-on skill development will include things like equip-ment management, soil development and fenc-ing procedures.

“In the past, if you have a ranch there was always somebody work-ing outside that ranch to make a buck. The cash flow simply wasn’t there. Now you can consider a farm a business.”

“We’ve reached out to the Quesnel and the South Cariboo Cattle-men’s Association to collaborate with us on developing projects, and for this one in particular;

they have been part of the design process,” Zirn-helt said.

“The key is that initially we want to engage stu-dents locally and from across the province and by year three we hope to have at least 10 foreign students enrolled, as well as local students.

“And this is something we share with aboriginal people, many of whom are big in the industry or interested in getting back into it. I can see us collaborating with First Nations in developing programs that respect traditional land use.”

The two-year program can stand alone or ladder into a degree.

“We thought this would be a great oppor-tunity to have students placed like co-op stu-

dents in other industries. They would learn half the time on a farm or ranch with a host family, and half online working on the program, mixing face to face and hands on learning with mentorship and online instruction,” Zirnhelt said.

“They will go on week-ly ‘field trips’ that would feature a local industry expert or one from away. Bringing in a big name speaker would help meet the needs of local producers, as well as the students,” he explained.

“This is all about fa-cilitated learning, not lec-tures,” Zirnhelt said.

“Succession planning is important – our ranch-ers are getting older; we really want this to help train land stewards for the future.”

Gibraltar collaborates on high school apprenticeships

Photo submittedKyle Buhrke, one of the electrical apprenticeship program high school students hard at work at Gibraltar Mine.

For the second year in a row Gibraltar Mines has high school students from Williams Lake and 100 Mile House working on site to gain hours toward their ap-prenticeships.

“We are excited to offer this op-portunity to high school students in our district,” said Robyn West, superintendent with the mine’s human resources.

During the placement the stu-dents will work alongside cer-tified journeyman tradesman, working hands-on learning vari-ous aspects of the trade.

“The students’ supervisor en-sures the students are exposed to all aspects to provide them with the experience they require to continue, and excel, in their ap-prenticeship,” West added.

Presently there are two electri-cal students and two welding stu-dents at the mine. In 2014, there were four electrical students, West said.

The program is ongoing throughout the year, however, students are typically placed in the summer months — late July or August.

Funding for the placements at Gibraltar and other places are made possible by the Industry Training Authority (ITA) who for 2015-2016 will give the Cari-boo Chilcotin School District $20,000 for the Secondary School Apprenticeship (SSA) program support.

The funds will support the Cariboo Chilcotin School Dis-trict in placing SSA students in Grades 10, 11 and 12 with lo-cal employers to attain practical experience. Students will “earn while they learn” and gain credit towards their high school diplo-ma and the apprenticeship por-tion of their trades training.

“SSA is an excellent way to help our young people get a head start into a career in trades,” School District 27 career pro-grams co-ordinator Dave Corbett said. “We have had a number of secondary students in the Cari-boo Chilcotin benefit from this program and continue to see an increase as more and more stu-dents pursue an apprenticeship

while still attending school.”Last year’s SSA registration

numbers were the highest they have been since the 2009 pre-re-cession years. In 2014-15, 1,048 students registered in SSA pro-grams across B.C., representing an increase of more than 10 per cent over 2013-14.

“This funding will provide

students with skills development through practical, hands-on ex-perience,” Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett said. “Our region will need skilled workers in the years ahead and these stu-dents are in a prime position to earn those jobs.”

“The youth play a pivotal role in sustaining B.C.’s future

economic boom,” ITA chief ex-ecutive officer Gary Herman said. “There are more skilled tradespeople retiring from the workforce than entering it, so we need to support the youth in trades training so they are ready to respond to the in-creasing demand in the labour market.”

New Connect Parent Group to start Oct. 14The next 10-week Connect Par-

ent Group will start on Oct. 14 and run into December depending on enrolment.

The Canadian Mental Health Association’s Family Solutions Group program was originally

scheduled to start on Oct. 7. The program will run on Wednesdays from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

There is no charge, but pre-reg-istration is required due to limited seating. Food and refreshments will be provided.

For information contact fam-ily counsellor Amara Montsion, at 250-305-4487.

Connect focuses on enhancing the parent’s ability to reflect before acting, by teaching skills that help parents ‘reframe’ their child’s be-

haviour. This is done by working with

parents to understand and modu-late their own emotional responses to problem behaviour and by prac-ticing and communicating empa-thy for their child’s experience.

The Seniors’ Activ-ity Centre has its much needed face lift.

The doors and all the walls on the inside have been painted.

The carpets in cer-tain areas have been re-placed by flooring and the quilting room has been expanded much to the delight of the quilters.

In the kitchen the leaky dishwasher and the counter on that side have also been re-placed.

All this work was done during the two weeks recently when the centre was closed thanks to the trades-men and some volun-teers.

It is indeed a plea-sure to walk into the centre and work in the kitchen to see every-thing so sparkly clean and shiny. Now, to pay the piper. The centre

will have fundraising events.

In fact, the OAPO is busy selling raffle tick-ets at the centre and around town. So if you see the seniors sitting out at the various ven-ues raffling off a quilt, stop and buy a ticket.

It is only $2 a ticket, less than the price of a cup of coffee.

As you read this ar-ticle, we have had our first fundraising din-ner. It was a barbecue of steak or chicken, labour provided by the Rotary Club. Safeway also contributed gener-ously towards the din-ner. And of course we must not forget the la-dies who helped serve and clean up.

Everything was so delicious and the best part was that I had the night off from cooking supper. If you missed this event, it was your loss.

On Oct. 9 we will have our monthly pot-luck supper. Doors

open at 5 p.m. and dinner is at 5:30 p.m. This will be followed by cribbage from 7 to 9 p.m. or any other card games. So bring your favourite dish and come on out. All mem-bers are welcome.

On Oct. 10 the ad-vance poll will be at the centre, so there will be no bingo.

Also, there will be a polling station at the centre on election day, Oct. 19.

Thank God that you live in a democratic country and have the privilege to vote.

The OAPO Good Used Clothing Sale is coming up on Oct. 24 and 25.

Here is your chance to clean up your clos-ets and donate.

Items can be de-livered to the centre between 9 a.m and 3 p.m. Monday through Friday. Come and purchase some retro outfits, clothing, hats, shoes etc.

On Nov. 5 the OAPO will hold their bazaar and luncheon. Watch for the posters as the date draws nearer.

Meanwhile, people,

as you harvest your garden keep in mind that the bake table will appreciate, preserves, jam jellies and baked goods.

1 in 30 women in Canada will die from breast cancer.

In Canada, the 5-year survival rate for breast cancer is 88%.

Breast cancer mortality rates have decreased by 44% since the peak in 1986.

In 2015, breast cancer continues to be the most common cancer diagnosis in Canadian women – with 1 in 4 (26.1%) cancer diagnoses being breast cancer. It is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in

Canadian women, after lung cancer.

Fewer Canadian women are dying from breast cancer today than in the past. Breast cancer deaths have decreased by 44 percent since the peak in 1986 due to earlier

detection through regular mammography screening, advances in screening technology, and improved treatments.

This represents a small, but incremental increase year over year – in 2013, the reduction in breast cancer deaths was quoted as 42 percent, and last year, it was 43 percent though the actual numbers diagnosed each year are increasing due to population growth.

TALKINGYour Preschooler and… Talking

Language development is a cornerstone for being ready to learn in school. Language is the main way that your child will communicate with the world around them, expressing their needs and wishes. Generally, between the ages of three and � ve your child’s vocabulary will almost double to about 1,500 words. Around age three, a child can use four-to-� ve-word sentences beginning with words like “I” and “you”. Most three-year-olds will begin using “what”, “where” and “how” to ask many questions, and will know social words like “hello”, “please”, and “thank you”. The best way to support speech is simply to talk with your child and listen to them. Most preschoolers have the language skills to be part of family and play groups. Take advantage of opportunities that arise in everyday living to talk with each other.

Try some of these with your preschooler:1. Talk with your preschooler about the day’s activities

or about plans for the following day. Discuss the day’s events at bedtime.

2. Point out names of things to your child as you ride in the car or walk to the store.

3. Listen carefully to your child. Show that you are interested in your child’s ideas and ask questions about what you hear from him or her.

4. Use rhymes to increase interest in language. Play rhyming games and read rhyming stories and poetry.

5. Sing songs. Make up simple songs about everyday activities like having lunch and sing them together with your child.

6. Have fun with tongue twisters. Help your child learn to say, “Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.”

7. Expand your child’s sentences. If your child says, “Daddy cook soup,” respond with, “Yes, Daddy is cooking vegetable soup for lunch.”

8. Ask your child to tell you a story about a picture he or she has drawn.

9. Talk about colours: “Look at that blue car”, “Are you going to wear your red dress?”

10. Play word and sound games: “How many words do you know that start with the same sound as your name?”

11. Make up stories together.

A-Pork-Alypse helps eradicate polioThe Rotary Inter-

national campaign to eradicate polio around the world is one step closer thanks to the Williams Lake Day-break Rotary Club.

Daybreak Rotary raised approximately $3,500 for the cam-paign with their A-Pork-Alypse fundrais-ing pig roast and dance held at the Let R’ Buck Saloon behind the Stampede Grandstand on Sept. 17.

“It was a fun evening with 80 people attend-ing,” says Daybreak president Lori Macala. “Join us for the second annual A-Pork-Alypse fundraiser on Sept. 17, 2016.”

Funds raised go to the Polio Now, Rotary International and Dis-trict projects.

Macala notes that all polio dollars raised will be matched five to one by the Canadian feder-al government and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

When the Polio Plus campaign began in 1988 Macala says there were more than 350,000 cases of po-lio in more than 125

countries. “Now we are down to two coun-tries where polio is still endemic, Afghanistan and Pakistan,” Macala says, adding Nigeria hasn’t had a case of polio since last July, so was taken off the list.

In 2013 there were about 416 recorded cases of polio in those three countries.

“Only 34 cases have been reported as of March 11, 2015,” Ma-cala says.

She notes war and

strife in those coun-tries has prevented the vaccine from reach-ing many people who fear the vaccine is an attempt by opposing forces to poison their children.

The Polio Plus cam-paign ends in 2018 and by then Macala says Rotary hopes to see an end to polio around the globe. If the country is polio free for a year the campaign in that coun-try can be considered a success, Macala says.

Fresh new talent rides onto the art scenewith Into the Wind

The October show at the Station House Gallery brings a fresh new perspective to just how much art is around us every day that we take for grant-ed.

Into the Wind is a celebration of motor-cycles, from tiny little ones to souped up big ones and even really old bicycles that were first converted to mo-tor power.

There are motorcy-cles creatively rebuilt by local fabricators and bike builders com-manding the centre of the gallery. There are two sculptural creations make from motorcycle parts that are, when hooked up a workable shower and sink.

And there are in-tricate drawings, abstract paintings, realistic paintings, photography to cap-ture the viewer’s at-tention.

And it is all just a little bit different be-cause this show fea-tures the work of 15 local artists who bring their own particu-lar appreciation for the motorcycle to the show.

Into the Wind is an exhibition about a passion for motor-cycles and the open road with artistic con-tributions from Dave

Brewin, Kevin East-hope, Brian Garten, Dana Hamblin, Jack Hood, Motocycho Norm, Ian Pare, Chris Purdy, Lori Rankin, Jana Roller, Jane Wellburn, John Well-burn, Kurt Williams, Matt Williams, Yann Yann, and Yuri. The exhibit will be on dis-play at the Station House Gallery until Oct. 24.

Gaeil Farrar photo Not all of the 15 artists featured in the October show at the Station House Gallery Into the Wind were able to attend the opening of the show last Thursday evening but there was an enthusiastic representative of the artists group pictured here from the left: John Wellburn, David Graf, Dana Hamblin, Chris Purdy with his son Rowan, Kurt Williams, Jane Wellburn, Jana Roller, and Lori Rankin.

Haunted trailsat Xat’sull

It’s early in October but things are already shaping up for com-munity Halloween parties in the Williams Lake area.

Xat’sull Heritage Village is planning a Haunted Harvest event at the village for Oct. 29.

Starting at 4:30 p.m. there will be haunted trail activities for all ages that will be con-tinued after the dinner and bonfire starting at 5 p.m. and fireworks at

6:30 p.m. Admission is by do-

nation. Organizers ask that participants wear their costumes and to reduce waste, please bring your own plate, bowl, travel mug, and water bottle.

Miocene Halloween

Getting a jump start on the traditional Oct. 31 Halloween date the Miocene community is holding a Hallow-een party on Saturday, Oct. 24 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the community hall located at 3511

Horsefly Road in 150 Mile House.

There will be fun, games and prizes for the younger trick or treaters in the main hall plus witches,

ghosts and more to see in the haunted barn for the folks brave enough to come and find secret passages, have their fortunes told and help solve a double murder.

First Williams Lake Board of Trade meeting in a yearFor the first time in a year the

Williams Lake Board of Trade held a meeting in which the President, H. G. Richardson, condemned the past president, (himself) and other officers for not attending to business of the town and district, and calling regular meetings.

Mr. Richardson stressed the urgency of a new president who could get out and around and attend to business of the Board. He then called for an election of new officers.

Herb Gardner was elected president; C. Huston, Vice-president. Honorary presidents - J.G. Turgeon and Louis Le Bourdais. Secretary-treasurer - J. Phillipson, and the executive composed of O.J. Simons, G.W. Renner, H. Lambirth, Geo. Luscombe and R. Beau champ.

The pitiful state of the road to Dog Creek was discussed and it was disclosed that several outside hired gravel trucks and their drivers had been idle for three weeks while awaiting the road to be put in condition for graveling.

Altogether, it was decided that something should be done to improve this much-used road before traffic had to find a different route to a railroad. As a result the new president was instructed to see the District Engineer and find out what plans were being made for the improvement of this road, and then for the president to wire both J.G. Turgeon and Louis LeBourdais accordingly.

Shortage of meat was

discussed, and W.S. Western volunteered the information that he believed that the present regulation would work out for the best.

Further, under a recent new regulation, Lambirth & Co. would be able to buy live animals and have them slaughtered for him by obtaining a permit. This seemed to solve the difficulty providing Lambirth & Co. was able to qualify for a permit which so far he had not been able to obtain.

Mr. Western stated that he had received word from the Prices Board that Lord Martin Cecil, John Hargreaves and

R.C. Cotton had received permits to slaughter animals for sale. But agreed later that R.C. Cotton had refused to accept his permit according to information received in town.

The terrible smell from the open manholes of the sewer in the vicinity of the railroad tracks was brought up and W.S. Western stated that he had already taken this up with the Public Works Department which owned the sewer, and they had promised to cover the open manholes as soon as possible.

R.l. Walters brought up the question of improvements to

all roads especially the Likely-Keithley Road, but the opinion of the meeting was that there was too great a shortage of labour to ask the government to spend much on all public roads.

Those present at the meeting were: H. Gardiner. C. Huston. J. Phillipson, F. Exshaw, H.C. Richardson. 0.J. Simons, S.C. Elliot, Geo. Luscombe, W.S. Western, G.W. Renner, R.l. Walters, R. Kelt. K. Kaverly, P. Coxon, R. Biair, H. Lambirth and J. Smedley.

News censored on airports,railways

Plans completed for town, � re hall

• PUBLISHED IN THE WILLIAMS LAKE TRIBUNE 1940’s •

Some of the readers of the Tribune may at times wonder why this paper does not carry certain Items of news of interest to the district such as airport construction, railway deals and surveys to Alaska, proposed Alaska highways, radio and telegraph communication constructions. Some time back we received instructions that all reference to

the above items were strictly for bidden under the Defense of Canada regulations and for us to please co-operate by not mentioning anything on the above items, also many more items of news interest.In fact, the list is so long that will

soon boil down to where we will have to print John Jones was in town and leave it at that. What sometimes makes us hot

around the collar is instructions to not mention such things as the Alaska Railroad and then a week later comes radio broadcasts over the government system on the same subjects that are forbidden to us.

In every daily issue of the metropolitan papers are articles and stories on the progress of the Alaska Highway and of the construction of new rail lines

south from Alaska into Canadian territory to connect with Prince George and last Wednesday evening the C.B.C. broadcast that Frederick Delano had recommended to President Roosevelt that the rail road be completed to Prince George from Alaska. The Tribune does not believe in publishing what is not nationally known and has refrained even before the censorship regulations from publishing anything on new projects of national defense and will continue in the future with the same policy. There is no harm in publishing articles on the Williams Lake airport because it was a commercial port and well publicized, and it still remains in the same state of unuse as it has been for some time, and no work is being done on it.

But you might find from other sources that the airports are under construction in the interior.

The TribuneJuly 27, 1942

Plans for a two story combination town and fire hall have been completed and are now in the hands Village Commissioners of Williams Lake who inform the Tribune that the erection of the building will be let out by tender.

The plans call for a 24 by 36 foot two story frame structure with a cement lower floor, roomy enough for a fire truck when one is obtained, a future

caretakers room and a drying tower.

The second floor will allow for the village clerks office, and a community assembly hall of approximately 20 by 26 feet.

The assembly hall will be available for the Cariboo Stockmens, Fair Association, Farmers Institutes, Volunteer Fire Brigade, and all town and district community meetings.

The Commissioners state

that they believe that the village owes it to the whole district to provide this service and will try to maintain it free but it may be necessary during the winter months to collect a contribution for the maintenance of heat and light.

The building will be erected on Second Avenue, between Oliver and Borland Streets.

The TribuneMarch 2, I942

Everybody got into the act back in the early years in Williams Lake when the town was small and community spirit was probably at its highest peak. This play, produced in the late 1940s and held in the Elks Hall, was just one of many produced to raise money for a “good cause.” From left to right Jim Stett, Pauline Mackenzie, Tom Hawker, George McKenzie, Margaret Levens and Laurie Pigeon.

BORLAND EMBODIES GOLD RUSHA21-22

UKULELE FUNA23


One of the origi-nal streets in the town of Williams Lake was named Borland Street, and out in the 10 Mile area, we find Borland Valley, Borland Creek, and Borland Meadow.

I've also mentioned in a previous article that our town was almost named Borland. So who was this fellow and what do we know about him?

As it turns out, Robert Borland was an early gold seeker who became one of the most promi-n e n t businessmen in the Cariboo before losing his fortune and going back to his prospect-ing roots in his twilight years.

Robert Borland was born in Port Hope, Ontario in 1840. During his teenage years, he heard stories about the gold rush in British Columbia, sto-ries of fist-sized gold nuggets lying on the ground just waiting to be picked up.

So, when he turned 19, he made his way overland across the country, working at various odd jobs along the way.

By 1862, he had arrived in the Cariboo,

and, like so many other gold seekers, he fol-lowed rumours of gold strikes in the Quesnel Forks, Keithley Creek, and Snowshoe Mountain areas.

Somehow, he was always behind the curve, and he met with very little success, bare-ly eking out an exis-tence in the goldfields during the summer, then migrating south to Victoria in the win-ters where he took on any job he could find.

Then, one day in the summer of 1869, his luck changed. He met George Veith, another man with a serious case of gold fever who had also been unable to strike it rich.

The two of them decided to join forc-es, pool their meagre resources and "mine the miners."

They opened a lit-tle store on the flats near Keithley Creek on the south side of the Snowshoe Mountains from Barkerville. Right

from the outset, their fortunes changed. They happened to be in the right place at the right time, and the place began to boom. As the town of Keithley Creek grew, so did the store, and every improve-ment they made gener-ated more income.

Soon, they added rooms to accommodate the miners and gold seekers who were rush-ing into the area and before long they were operating a large stop-ping house complete with a saloon and gam-bling area.

By 1871, the firm of Veith and Borland, headquartered in Keithley Creek, was well known through-out the Cariboo. That year, they established a sawmill, as well as opening a slaughter house and a second store in Quesnel Forks.

They set up and operated mail service to and from Barkerville, and they formed a pack train of 64 hand-picked mules, which they contracted out to the Hudson's Bay Company to supply its northern outposts.

They also continued to speculate in mining, either by developing their own claims, lend-ing money to down and out miners for

a share in promising ground, or purchasing claims from the estates of miners who had met an untimely end.

Borland once claimed that more than $2 million had passed through his hands dur-ing his years at Keithley Creek.

In 1884, Veith and Borland bought the 150 Mile House, which had suffered a major decline over the years. They rebuilt the hotel and the store there, and brought the ranch back to its former profitable condition.

Under their man-agement, the 150 Mile Hotel and Store also flourished.

Between 1886 and 1890 the firm reached its peak with two work-ing mines, four gen-eral stores, three hotels, several cattle ranches, a packing house, and a freighting service.

The Keithley Creek holdings, for example, included a post office; a hotel with a saloon; gambling room; din-ing room; kitchen and pantry; 10 rooms; Borland's Willow Ranch at the mouth of Keithley Creek; a significant interest in the Keithley Creek Onward mine, and much of the Keithley Creek townsite.

Borland was very much a hands-on owner. He often accompanied the pack train as they transport-ed goods to the Skeena region.

On one occasion in 1889, as he rode ahead of his mules into Hazelton, he was sur-prised to find that the local natives had sur-rounded all the white settlers in the HBC

fort and were refus-ing to allow them to leave. Since he was a neutral party who had traded with both groups, he was able to convince some of the natives to paddle him down the Skeena River. He caught a passing steamboat and arrived in Port Essington, then made his way to the captial city of Victoria where the legislature happened to be in ses-sion.

Borland entered the chambers and star-tled the members by announcing.

"Gentlemen, do you know there is a war going on in Hazelton?"

In 1898 at the age of 58, Borland married 16 year old Chrissie Glassey of Hat Creek. She was a young, beau-tiful brunette who was also an accomplished musician.

She enjoyed host-ing lavish social occa-sions which featured her grand piano recit-als. Borland didn't have a chance. Chrissie lived life to the full-est, spending money on clothes, furs, and frequent trips to Vancouver.

Largely because of Chrissie's spending, in 1899 the Veith and Borland partnership dissolved and both men went their own ways.

Borland purchased the Pinchbeck Ranch at Williams Lake for $17,000, then refur-bished the Lake House there for his young wife. They moved in and for some time the place was noted for its great parties.

Borland, however, continued to work hard, building up the ranch operation and opening a post office and store. However, trouble between the Borlands soon devel-oped.

Even though Chrissie had a Chinese cook, several servants, unlimited access to Borland's money, and even though their home became renowned for gracious living in the Cariboo, she was not happy.

She began spending more and more money on trips to Vancouver of ever increasing lengths.

They began to have arguments about what she was doing on these trips. Borland contin-ued to pay the bills, but the marriage was on the rocks.

In 1912, he sold the ranch to the gov-ernment, which had plans to develop it as

a new townsite when the Pacific Great Eastern railway came through.

Robert and Chrissie separated. She moved to Vancouver and he went back to the Willow Ranch at Keithley Creek. There, he lived a simple exis-tence, without much money (he was still supporting Chrissie), but happy in his old age.

He raised some stock, tended a garden, put up hay, and con-tinued to prospect for gold up in the Little Snowshoe region.

He also cared gener-ously for some of the old timers who had fallen on hard times, providing them with room and board for $1 a day.

Robert Borland died on January, 22, 1923 in Quesnel at the ripe old age of 83. The cause of his death was listed as "a severe attack of indigestion which had a weakening effect on his heart."

He was buried in

the little Keithley Creek Cemetery and his grave can still be seen there today.

At the time of his death, he had very lit-tle in the way of finan-cial assets. Chrissie

had seen to that. His life was one full

of highs and lows. He lived a true gold rush adventure and now his name lives on in the places and street called Borland.

On the Cover On the cover Sharon Hoffman (left) gives Terri

Person a pointer on how to set her fingers for a note on the ukulele during a workshop held at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre, during Culture Days at the end of September.

Hoffman is one of the founding members of the GadZukes ukulele group that gets together to have fun playing together and ventures out into the community to entertain at the Seniors's Village and periodically for other community events.

Anyone with an interest in learning how to play is invited to join them on Wednesday mornings from 10 a.m. until noon at the arts centre.

The ukulele may be one of the smallest stringed instruments but it is big on fun for players and group entertainment.

A ukulele group start-ed about five years ago by a small group of retired teachers continues to blossom and grow today.

“A bunch of us want-ed to pick up the uke and we met and sort of taught ourselves,” says Sharon Hoffman, one of the members who led a beginners work-shop for Culture Days in September.

“Our motto is ‘no angst,’” Hoffman says. “We play and plunk, go to Retirement Concepts once a month, and there is the occasional other performance that we do, but no one is pressured to do these.”

The group is called GadZukes and now includes up to about 20 people from all walks of life. Sometimes the group is smaller depending on the schedules of members who work or travel.

The members origi-nally took turns hosting gatherings in their homes but then retired teacher Sheila Wyse arranged for the group to practice at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre. They play at the arts centre Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to noon.

On the third Wednesday of each month they entertain residents at the Seniors’ Village.

"Most of us took workshops with band teacher Mike Butterfield, who used to plunk with us, and also we’ve had workshops with Diamond Tooth Molly who has taught up at Wells,” Hoffman says.

Butterfield taught ukulele and the band program at Sacred Heart School, and directed the Williams Lake Community Band before moving to Nelson a cou-ple of years ago.

She says Molly is from Victoria and gave a week-end workshop in the lake-city in the fall of 2014.

She says most of the original members own song books put together by Molly and bring songs they have found online for the group to play. There is no fee to join

the group but once a year everyone chips in to have music photocopied. Pam Hedley Smith keeps the music organized for the group.

“We do not have a leader,” Hoffman says. “When we get together we take turns suggesting the next song to play. Or we introduce new songs to try.”

For the first 40 to 50 minutes of a session she says they play slow-er songs with the most familiar chords and fewer chord changes.

“Later on we may choose songs that are more challenging,” Hoffman says.

“At this time the new people will play what they can, and learn new chords at their own pace. There is no pressure to keep you, you just do what you can. New people are welcome.”

She says people who don’t want to come to a session cold will find lots of ukulele tutorials online.

“There are two tunings for ukulele,” Hoffman says. “We all have the ‘C’ tuning on our ukes, so if people go out to buy a uke, it is best to get one that is tuned this way.”

Hoffman says she has read that some retirement homes have a ukulele pro-gram because it keeps the fingers nimble, and it is really good socially to be a part of this sort of group.

“The ukulele is a great little instrument,” Hoffman says.

“It is not expensive. It is portable and a very social instrument. You can learn about five chords and that gives you so many songs to play.

You can keep it simple, or make it fancy, and people from all levels can play together.”

She says GadZukes plays a lot of folk songs, old rock, Beatles, some Second World War songs, gospel songs and more. At the Seniors Village recently they had requests for Hank Williams songs and the Tennessee Waltz.

She says they also enjoy playing a couple of songs

written by LeRae Haynes, one called Amadeus the Goat, and another for the BC SPCA encouraging people to spay and neuter their pets.

“It is quite funny. The opening line is ‘Give me

a snip, a clip, food and water, put me in the bath or I smell….'’’ Hoffman says.

“It was fun plunk-ing and singing this with Angela Sommer’s little kids choir.”

Registration underway for chess openThe second annual

Lake City Chess Open coming up Saturday, Oct. 24 will feature newcomers and veter-ans to the sport alike.

Tournament orga-nizer Scott Richardson said he hopes to build off the success of last year’s event, hosted at the Williams Lake Li-brary.

Prizes for first-, sec-ond- and third-place players are lined up,

along with additional prizes for the open divi-sion, while all the youth will go home with something.

During last year’s tournament the young-est player was six, while the oldest was 92.

At this year’s event, Scott’s son, high-ranked chess player Kai Rich-ardson, will be playing simultaneous games against up to 20 players.

Old-time chess player

and tournament orga-nizer, Nick Weber, will be participating this year, Scott said.

“Players should bring their own boards and clocks in case we run out,” he said. “A chess clock app at chess.com on a device will work fine.”

Kai will also be giv-ing pre-tournament pointers and playing scrimmage games on the two Wednesdays

before the tournament at the library on Oct. 14 and Oct. 21 starting at 6:30 p.m.

All levels of players are invited to play in either casual/youth or open divisions.

Open registration is $20, casual/youth is $15 until Oct. 20. Free entry for players 75 and up.

Anyone interested can register online at http://lakecitychess.homestead.com.

Stamps split season openersThe Williams Lake

Stampeders split a pair of weekend games to open its 2015/16 Cen-tral Interior Hockey League campaign.

On Saturday in its season opener Wil-liams Lake’s Dylan Richardson played the hero, notching the winning goal in a 5-4 shootout victory over the Prince Rupert Rampage.

After goals from Matt Lees and Kaleb Boyle in a 2-2 first period, Williams Lake went up 4-2 in the sec-ond, with Boyle notch-ing his second and Na-than Zurak potting his first of the season.

Rupert answered back with two of their own, before Richard-son scored the winner in the shootout.

On Sunday in Kiti-mat versus the Ice De-mons, the Stampeders fell 7-4.

Kurtis Bond, An-drew Fisher, Boyle and Stuart Sasges scored for Williams

Lake, while Bran-don Wakita (2), Ian Coleman (3) and Josh Slanina (2) found the twine for the Ice De-mons.

Coming up this Sat-urday, Oct. 10, the

Stampeders host their northern rivals, the Quesnel Kangaroos, in their home opener at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex.

Puck drop is 7:30 p.m.

How much exercisedo I need?

Fitness Canada recommends a minimum of twenty minutes three times a week in order to increase the ef� ciency of the heart and lungs. The bene� ts of regular exercise are: reducing the risk of heart disease, weight management, improving self esteem and reducing stress.

The best activity would be the one that you enjoy. If running is not your style than � nd some activity that you enjoy. People � nd that joining a � tness class or a group keeps them motivated. Ensure that you don’t try to do too much too soon.

Williams Lake family ties are hoping to help the BC Major Midget Hockey League’s Cariboo Cou-gars to another remark-able season.

Cougars’ head coach Trevor Sprague said four lakecity hockey players cracked this year’s lineup — two returning players and two newcomers to the roster.

Brothers Chase Dubois and Daine Dubois and cousins Colton Thomas and Trey Thomas all bring various skillsets to the table, Sprague said, noting Chase and Colton, both returning players, will be looked up to this season in leadership roles.

“Colton is a leader on our team,” Sprague said. “He’s a dominant player every game and that’s the expectation of a guy that’s 17 — he can’t show up and not play his best game.

“Our job is to put him into the BCHL or the WHL … he needs to be consistent every night which will help him out to be a junior hockey player.”

Chase, who plays on the team’s top line on Colton’s wing, likewise, leads by example, Sprague said.

In six games this season Chase has two goals, sev-en assists and nine points, while Colton has four goals and an assist.

“He needs to hold ev-eryone else accountable,” he said. “For him it’s play-ing with pace and making sure he’s a dominant play-er every game. He has the skills and talent to do it.”

Both Colton and Chase helped the Cougars to a first-place finish at last year’s Mac’s Midget ‘AAA’ World Invitational Tournament.

Meanwhile, newcom-ers Daine and Trey are expected to play major roles on the team when the Cougars host the 2017 Telus Cup, Canada’s na-tional midget hockey championship.

“Daine has the natural ability to be able to score

goals,” Sprague said, not-ing injuries sidelined the young forward up until the past few games. “What he did earlier in our summer camp — we were com-fortable enough to know he’s a guy here next year for the Telus Cup if he wants it.”

Daine has notched two goals and an assist in four games played to date, while Trey potted his first goal of the campaign dur-ing the weekend.

Sprague pointed to Trey as an instigator who should play a crucial role on this year’s club.

“He’s a Brad March-and type player,” he said. “He’s got that edge to his game. He’s an agitator out there, teams don’t like him, and he’s a good 200-foot player, but he’s got to play under that bar to be effective, and he’s done really well.”

In six games the Cou-gars have put together two

wins, three losses and a tie on the campaign.

“All four from Wil-liams Lake are outstand-ing,” Sprague said. “Their character, their families they come from, they’ve done a great job.”

He also pointed to To-tal Ice Training Centre in helping with the develop-ment of lakecity hockey players.

“On skill development,

they’re a step ahead,” he said. “Hats off to [Total Ice owner] Tyrel Lucas and his family for hav-ing a facility like that. It’s giving these kids an op-portunity to move up to not only the Cougars, but these guys are wanted by Junior A teams and the WHL in moving their ca-reers forward.

“The proof is in the pudding.”

Family ties bring four-way punch to Cariboo Cougars


Waxing a car is a great way to maintain its exterior. Including waxing as part of your routine vehicle main-tenance can protect the car or truck from some natural hazards, including sun damage, pollen and the dirt and grime that can accumulate on a car over time.

Motorists unfamil-iar with waxing may be intimidated by the sheer volume of waxes on the shelves at their local automotive sup-ply stores, which will no doubt offer an ar-ray of both liquid and paste waxes as well

as many spray waxes. When testing waxes it was found that liquid and paste waxes were relatively equal with regard to their effec-tiveness, while spray waxes were very con-venient though not very durable.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN

WAXES

In a study of liquid, paste and spray wax-es, it was found that paste waxes were easi-er to apply than liquid waxes, but that the overall performance of paste waxes fell

short of liquid waxes. Liquid waxes were

very durable and pro-vided the gloss many motorists are look for when waxing their ve-hicles.

Spray waxes were convenient and easy to use, and many can be wiped off without drying. But reports found spray waxes were not as durable as liquid or paste waxes, so they may need to be applied more fre-quently.

There are some ad-ditional tricks driv-ers can employ when waxing their vehicles that can make the job

easier and the wax that much more effec-tive.

• Wash first, then wax. Make sure you give your car or truck a good wash before you apply any wax. Allow the car to dry completely before ap-plying any wax.

• Avoid sunlight. tests show that sun-light can soften paint and make it suscepti-ble to scratching, so avoid washing and waxing your car in di-rect sunlight.

• Use microfiber towels. Microfiber towels were found to be more effective than

cloth rags at removing residue. In addition, cloth rags can trap dirt and scratch fin-ishes, so opt for lamb’s wool mitts instead.

• Go from top to bottom. The bottom of a vehicle is more susceptible to grime, so work your way down when waxing so you are not contami-nating your towels. A contaminated towel increases the risk of scratching your vehi-cle’s exterior.

When waxing your vehicle, the right wax and technique can make all the differ-ence.

Top driver distractions Distracted driving

can be very danger-ous. Diverting one’s attention from the road for mere sec-onds can have seri-ous, and potentially fatal, consequences.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have found distracted driving kills more than 15 people each day while injuring more than 1,200. Any activity that takes at-tention away from driving is considered a distraction.

These include tak-ing your hands off the wheel, daydream-ing or engaging in any behavior that takes your eyes off of the road.

Certain activities are known distrac-tions, and under-standing which hab-its can be dangerous and making strides to correct behaviors can help save lives, prevent injuries and reduce accident-re-lated expenses.

A study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Ad-ministration and the Virginia Tech Trans-portation Institute indicates 80 percent of crashes and 65 per-cent of near-crashes in the United States involve some form of driver distraction. This distraction took place a mere three seconds before the

vehicle crash.An Allstate Cana-

da marketing survey of 1,605 Canadian adults conducted between July 26 and July 28 found that, although the vast majority of Cana-dians thinks driving while distracted is unacceptable, near-ly three out of four Canadian drivers ad-mits to engaging in a behavior that is con-sidered a distraction.

That is perhaps in part because drivers are not aware just how distracting some the following behav-iors truly are.

USING MOBILE PHONES

Leading the list of the top distractions behind the wheel are mobile phones. Phones now do more than just place calls, and drivers often cannot pull away from their phones, even when driving. According to the California Depart-ment of Motor Ve-hicles, studies have shown that driving performance is low-ered and the level of distraction is higher for drivers who are heavily engaged in cell phone conversa-tions.

The use of a hands-free device does not lower distraction levels. The percent-

age of vehicle crash-es and near-crashes attributed to dialing is nearly identical to the number associ-ated with talking or listening.

Accident rates have increased thanks to texting, which in-volves a person tak-ing his or her hands and eyes off of the road. A 2009 study by Car and Driver magazine compared the dangers of tex-ting while driving to the effects of driving drunk to see which would be more dan-gerous under the same conditions. Measuring the time it takes to brake af-ter being alerted by a red light to stop, the reaction time was recorded when the driver was legal-ly drunk, reading an e-mail and sending a text.

Texting easily elic-ited the slowest re-sponse time.

Ironically, in Janu-ary 2011, Texas man Chance Bothe drove off of a cliff after texting that he had to stop texting or risk dying in a car acci-dent. Bothe survived but sustained signifi-cant injuries and had to be revived from death three times.

MOVING OBJECTS

Whether there’s a

pet bouncing in the front seat or children being boisterous in the back, passen-gers and items mov-ing around the car are significant dis-tractions. Turning around to look at the kids or to reach for a ball that may be rolling around on the floor of the car can take a person’s eyes off the road. If something really is important and needs to be addressed, it is much safer to pull over and take care of it before getting back on the road.

DAYDREAMING

Many people will admit to daydream-ing behind the wheel or looking at a per-son or object outside of the car for too long. Perhaps they’re checking out a house in a new neighbor-hood or thought they saw someone they knew on the street corner. It can be easy to veer into the di-rection your eyes are focused, causing an accident. In addition to trying to stay fo-cused on the road, some drivers prefer the help of lane de-parture warning sys-tems.

EATING

Those who haven’t quite mastered walk-

ing and chewing gum at the same time may want to avoid eating while driving. The majority of foods require a person’s hands to be taken off of the wheel and their eyes to be di-verted from the road. Reaching in the back seat to share some French fries with the kids is also distract-ing.

Try to eat meals before getting in the

car. For those who must snack while en route, take a moment to pull over at a rest area and spend 10 minutes snacking there before resum-ing the trip.

READING

Glancing at an ad-vertisement, updat-ing a Facebook sta-tus or reading a book are all activities that should be avoided

when driving. Even pouring over a traf-fic map or consulting the digital display of a GPS system can be distracting.

When driving, at-tention should be placed on the task of safely getting from point A to point B. All other activities taking place in the vehicle are distrac-tions that can end up risking a person’s life.

WILDWOOD VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT

Camaraderie is the key to success for WLFDAngie MindusStaff Writer

It’s shaping up to be a busy year at the Williams Lake Fire Department (WLFD).

The department, which covers about 75 square miles, receives on average 350 calls per year. So far this year, the WLFD has already responded to 267.

“We’re just getting busier and busier,” said Fire Chief Des Webster, who has been with the detachment for 21 years, starting as a paid on-call fire fighter in 1994.

The WLFD attends car accidents with the ambu-lance if requested, grass fires, car fires, gas and chemical leaks and, typi-cally, about six structure fires per year.

Webster said it is the camaraderie amongst members and the feeling of being of service to the community that he loves most about the WLFD.

“It’s a great group of people here. We all work very close together.”

Earlier this year a group of 15 WLFD fire fighters and their spouses travelled

to Washington, DC to take part in the World Police and Fire Games where 13,000 athletes competed in everything from golf to running to dodge ball.

“It was a great oppor-tunity to meet people who do the same thing you do,” Webster said. “We all had a common bond, and it was also great to share ideas from departments all over

the world.”The most memorable

part of the trip for Webster was when members from a New York Station gave the WLFD members a ride in their fire truck over the Brooklyn Bridge, then to Ground Zero to tour the 9/11 Memorial and Free-dom Tower.

“It was amazing – very moving,” Webster said of visiting the site and being with the New York mem-bers who lost fire fighters in the 9/11 attacks.

“Even now 14 years later when they talk about it, they still get choked up. It was pretty emotional.”

The WLFD is currently accepting applications for paid on-call fire fighters.

“We like to keep a com-pliment of 42,” Webster said. “We will be looking to fill four positions.”

An informational ses-sion will be held at the Williams Lake Fire Hall, located at 230 Hodgson Road, on Wednesday, Jan. 21 at 7 p.m.

Successful applicants will be motivated, physi-cally fit and over the age of 19.

Members of the WLFD visited the Freedom Tower in New York City this summer.

McLeese Lake Volunteer Fire Department Society members have been working hard to serve the McLeese Lake area. Currently there are 10 active members.

On the cover

Fire Prevention Week of-ficially runs from Oct. 4-10, 2015, with this year’s focus on the need for working alarms in every bedroom.

“Smoke alarms save lives and that’s been proven,” said Williams Lake Fire Department Chief Des Webster.

About half of all resi-dential fire deaths occur between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. when residents are asleep and that is why Fire Pre-vention Week’s theme Hear the Beep where you sleep is so important, he said.

“Smoke is a silent killer – it will get you before fire will.”

Webster, a husband and father of two, said when his children were young he read a Health Canada re-port stating children slept through smoke alarms.

He tested the theory on his own family by setting off an alarm outside of his son’s bedroom and the children did not wake up.

“It was a little unnerv-ing,” he said of his own ex-perience.

“It’s a good indication of the need to have smoke

alarms in every room.” Fire preparedness activi-

ties will take place at fire halls and schools across the province over the next week along with a series of tweets from Minister of State for Emergency

Preparedness Naomi Ya-mamoto and a social me-dia campaign delivered through Twitter aimed at providing fire safety tips to all British Columbians.

The awareness week, held across North Amer-

ica, is the longest running public health and safety observance on record and falls on the anniversary of one of North America’s most significant fires: the 1871 Chicago fire.

Fire Prevention Week

aims to draw public aware-ness to fire safety and pro-vides an opportunity to review evacuation plans, practice fire drills, test the batteries in fire alarms and carbon monoxide detec-tors, and ensure fire extin-guishers are serviced and functioning.

On average, one Brit-ish Columbian is injured by fire every 44 hours in the province and the Fire Chiefs’ Association of British Columbia research suggests that fatality rates rise 74 per cent when a working smoke alarm is not present.

An update to the BC Smoke Alarm movement report initially released in October 2012 titled ‘Smoke Alarms Work, But Not Forever: Revisited, says total deaths have dropped by nine a year between 2012-14 as a result of pres-ent and working smoke alarms.

In B.C. the primary source of residential fires is stove top burners, but other top ignition sources include electrical, fireplac-es and chimneys, as well as

cigarettes.Many fires are prevent-

able, yet statistics show that on average, fire kills eight people each week in Canada, with residential fires accounting for 73 per cent of those fatalities.

150 Mile fire fighters raise thebar with fundraising calendar


150 Mile House Vol-unteer Fire Department’s fundraising campaign this year is sure to raise a few eyebrows and garner many appreciative fans of the ru-ral department.

“I had been bugging Stan to do a calendar for three years and last December he told me I had his permis-sion,” 150 Mile House vol-unteer firefighter Madeline Hjelden said of Fire Chief Stan McCarthy, noting she has been with the fire department for about four years.

Using a local photogra-pher and printer, Hjelden was able to gather enough sponsorship to cover all the costs so 100 per cent of the sales from the 500 calendars could go directly toward purchasing new equipment for the depart-ment.

She then went around the department in January asking members if they’d be willing to be in the cal-

endar and had five women and five men commit.

“They all ended up hir-ing personal trainers and went to fitness classes to get to the level of fitness they wanted.”

Photographer Jana Roll-er did the photo shoot at the end of July and pro-duced dozens of images to choose from.

In the end Hjelden said she was very happy with the final results.

“It turned out great,” she

smiled. “It’s the first firefighter

calendar with women in it that I know of.”

Members of the depart-ment will be selling the cal-endars on Oct. 24 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Save-On-Foods:

Oct. 31 at the 150 VFD Halloween Bonfire and Fireworks Event: 7 p.m. hotdogs and hot Chocolate and 8 p.m. fireworks;

Nov. 8 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Save-on-Foods and;

Santa’s helpers bring joy to Miocene Christmas EveMonica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer

Aside from responding to calls, the Miocene Vol-unteer Fire Department is also committed to events that serve the community.

Every Christmas Eve members transport Santa around the neighbour-hood, something they have been doing for five years, said Fire Chief Stan Pogue.

“We borrow an antique sleigh from one of the members in the commu-nity, we put it on top of out fire truck and deck it all out with Christmas lights and have a PA system so we’re playing Christmas tunes,” Pogue said of the event, which then sees San-ta arrive and travel on the fire truck.

The run starts on Spokin Lake Road about 4 p.m. and proceeds up and down “just about” every street in the district.

“If someone is stand-ing out at the end of their driveway we stop and hand out candy canes to all the kids and the adults and little stuffed toys for the

kids.”Pogue said everything

is donated and it’s all vol-unteer on behalf of the department, and is not a money drive in any way.

Santa completes the visit in about three and a half

hours, subject to the weath-er.

“If the weather is even 15 or 20 below, we’ve had 75 to 85 people come out, if it gets much colder than that it’s a little too cold for the kids, but I think the lowest

(number) we’ve had is 50.”The department also

helps with the Miocene Community Club’s an-nual Mother’s Day and Fa-ther’s Day breakfasts either cooking, serving or setting up some first responders’

scenarios.“We will set up the fire

truck for the kids and spray some foam around, things like that,” Pogue said.

Another program that’s been going on for a decade is their Helping Hand Pro-gram.

Members donate a call-out and practice night re-numeration to the program and then approach busi-nesses in town for dona-tions.

“If a business donates an item then the fire depart-ment matches that amount either with a product or a

gift card.”Pogue then takes sugges-

tions from the community of a person or family in need within the Miocene fire district.

Members then create a gift basket including all the food needed for Christmas day meals with all the trim-mings.

“It remains anonymous in the sense that only my-self and the person who gives us the name know who the recipients are.

“It doesn’t go any fur-ther,” Pogue said. Baskets are delivered on Dec. 24.

Likely community celebrates new firehallIn September the Likely

and District Fire and Res-cue Society held an open house to celebrate their new hall.

“We had a good open

house with a steady flow of people coming by to view the facility and to recognize the results of many years of volunteer efforts and to recognize

the donations made by the community and busi-ness organizations,” said member Paula Maison-ville.

Volunteers prepared

food for the barbecue, and Gerrit Apperloo the Like-ly Chapel Pastor provided a blessing for the build-ing and the community of people it represents.

Doug Watt, longtime member of the Likely Volunteer Fire Department (right) helps at the open house.

MD Boot Drive

McLeese Lake serves up local cookbook They might be just a

small rural department, but McLeese Lake Volun-teer Fire Department Soci-ety president Ian Pare said they are ready to help when needed.

“Those days of nobody coming to help are over,” said Pare.

“We have trucks, we have water – we are ready to go.”

The MLVFDS was cre-ated in response to the dev-astating 2012 accident near

M c L e e s e Lake which claimed the lives of a family of five.

Since then the commu-nity has ral-lied around

Pare and his mission to cre-ate a fire department, which now includes Fire Chief Nick Dube and 10 active members and has respond-

ed to emergencies such as a fire which threatened the Kaufman’s ranch and corn fields a few years ago.

As a way of saying thank you, Pare said the ranch of-fered the department free corn.

Pare said members picked 700 cobs to sell at the local farmer’s market this year, to compliment their funds raised collecting bottles and selling burgers.

“We are just hanging in

there,” said Pare of ongoing expenses such as gas and in-surance.

He is thankful to sup-porters including Gibraltar Mine, Mount Polley Mining Corp., the Trucker’s Assoc. and the Cariboo Regional District.

The department is cur-rently selling a cookbook filled with favourite fam-ily recipes as well, which is available by calling Pare at 250-297-6114.

Williams Lake fi refi ghters Trevor Stockdale (left) and Alain Lachapelle braved a very cold evening Friday, Oct. 2 to help out with the fi re fi ghters’ annual MD Boot Drive to raise funds for the Muscular Dystrophy Association of Canada. The fi refi ghters were collecting donations at various locations around the city on Oct. 2 and 3. Since its incorporation Muscular Dystrophy Canada has been supported by more than 800 fi re departments and associations across Canada who currently raise more than $3 million annually for the organization’s various support and educational programs.

Help me to embrace a little childBefore it’s too late,Or some older personFrom the horror of that fate.Enable me to be alertAnd hear the weakest shout,And quickly and efficientlyTo put the fire out.I want to fill my callingAnd give the best in me,To guard my neighborAnd protect his property.And if according to Your willI have to lose my life,Please bless with Your protecting handMy children and my wife.

Horsefly Fire Department’s annual ATV poker runshowcases magnificent mountain scenery


Mark your calendars for July 23, 2016 for the Horsefly Volunteer Fire Department’s annual ATV Poker Ride.

This fourth annual poker run is a major fun-draiser for the fire depart-ment that was incorporat-ed April 22, 1992 and has been proudly serving the Horsefly community for 23 years.

This year the theme for the HVFD ATV Poker Ride held on July 25 was Full House - Kings over Aces with the win-ning hand held by Wayne Johnson.

A total of 121 riders and 14 ghost riders par-ticipated in the 80 kilo-metre route which wound through mountain scen-ery in the Eureka Peak, Black Creek country at the headwaters of the Horsefly River.

The hardy riders were

rewarded by the sun com-ing out at the top of the mountain after a wet and strenuous ride.

Under the leadership of trail boss Wayne Johnson the event was supported by numerous volunteers

and local businesses and the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Re-source Operations.

HVFD enjoys the sup-port of the permanent and seasonal residents of Horsefly and area.

Funding is obtained through fire levies, special events, BC Lottery Gam-ing Grants and Grants for Assistance from the Cariboo Regional Dis-trict.

Members truly appre-

ciate the support that enables them to be an ac-tive fire department with a dedicated crew which includes Fire Chief Ce-cil Morhart; Deputy Fire Chief Paul O’Toole; Fire Captain Andrew Schoenle; Fire Captain Ben Morhart; secretary Louise Harry; treasurer Linda Bartsch; and chair Victor Khong.

First responders and firefighters are Cecil

Morhart, Paul O’Toole, Andrew Schoenle, Ben Morhart, Joe Morhart, Linda Bartsch, John Hol-lan, Jack and Lou Bigg, Marc and Julie Caron, Mike Cavanaugh, Gra-ham Gillies, Louise Har-ry, Ellie Seelhof, Judy Hillaby, Eric Irving, Vic-tor Khong, Larry Ritchie, Kyle Chappell, Evan Chappell, Ivan Yahnke, Tory Hewitt, Norm and Vonnie Poisson.
