Chlorine report released

An investigative report into the Feb. 26 chlorine incident at the Sam Ketcham Pool by the Lifesaving So-ciety has found that the harmful ef-fects of the incident were minimized by co-ordinated efforts of facility staff, those associated with swim and hockey teams, and first responders, says a city news release.

The society made several proce-dural recommendations, most of which the city had already imple-mented following the incident, the news release says.

Suggestions include reviewing evacuation plans, improved liaison and planning between facility staff/management and other emergency agencies in the community along with a review and revision of post-in-cident procedures. The report can be found on the City of Williams Lake website at http://www.williamslake.ca/index.asp?p=2218 (click on the link at the bottom of the web page).

Missing man lucky to be aliveClaudette Schafer is relieved her

husband was found after he was missing for almost 36 hours.

Larry Schafer, 73, left his home on Chimney Lake Road near Wil-liams Lake at around 9 a.m. on July 11 and was located around 11:30 p.m. July 12.

On July 11, Larry had gone out on his ATV, hauling a small trailer, to get some gravel from an area about five kilometres from his home.

Around dinner time, Claudette began to worry because her hus-band hadn’t returned. At 9 p.m. she called the RCMP.

The following evening, at around 11:30 p.m. Schafer was seen by a motorist on Place Lake Road, around 25 km away from his home.

“The man pulled over and asked him if he was lost,” Claudette says.

The motorist helped Larry into the car and brought him to a friend’s cabin, where they fed him a grilled cheese sandwich and some water.

“A few minutes later the man asked Larry where he lived and then brought him home,” Claudette says. “I’m trying to find out the name of the person who found him and brought him home.”

It was around 12:30 a.m. when Claudette heard somebody drive in toward the house. She wondered if it was her daughter or the RCMP, and expected the worst because the ATV had been located, but her hus-band had not.

Even the RCMP dog that was brought in on Thursday was not finding any scent.

“I went out with the flashlight and heard somebody fumbling with the gate. I put my light up and it was my husband. I just about dropped. I asked him where the heck he’d come from and he said, ‘in the bush,’” Claudette recalls.

She helped him up the stairs into the house, hugged him and kissed him.

“All the things you don’t do af-ter 25 years of marriage,” she says, with a brave smile.

From what she can gather from Larry, the axle broke on the trailer, so he left the trailer behind and headed out on the ATV.

When the ATV stopped working properly, he set out on foot. Unfor-tunately he didn’t have any food or water because he’d only planned to be gone for a couple of hours.

Larry wandered, drinking any water he could find, and eating ber-ries off the trees.

It was 32 C that day and at points

he stopped and dunked his shirt entirely in swamp water and then placed the wet shirt on his back.

Once it was night time, he lay down to sleep under a fir tree, but the bugs were bad, so he rose and walked, even though it was the mid-dle of the night.

“I knew when I saw his tongue that he had to go straight to the hos-pital,” Claudette says.

Larry remains in intensive care at Cariboo Memorial Hospital on an IV.

“When my daughter was at the hospital they told her yesterday they didn’t think he would have made it another day out in the bush. His kid-neys were starting to shut down,” Claudette says.

The RCMP, Cariboo Search and Rescue, Chimney Valley Volunteer Fire Department, and many citizens searched until nightfall Thursday in efforts to locate Schafer.

On Friday morning the RCMP said it would like to pass on a very sincere thank you to those who took time out of their day to assist.

Anahim Lake airport runway to be extended

Work will begin on an extension to the Anahim Lake Airport runway this week.

Crews will start work after the scheduled flight on July 17 and continue working through to July 20.

Presently the runway measures 3,950 feet by 75 feet.

The extension will add an additional 700 feet of gravel to the south end

of the runway, Cariboo Regional District Area J director Roger William says.

“We will pave the gravel and extend the us-able service, allowing for safer winter landing and increasing the passenger care and capacity.”

At a regular meeting on July 13, the CRD board approved the plan to continue moving for-ward with Anahim Lake Airport improvements.

There are also plans to build a new terminal,

with construction start-ing in 2013.

In its June 6 meeting minutes, the Anahim Lake Airport Commis-sion indicates it will be-gin public consultation regarding expanding the taxation boundary with help from CRD staff who will gather statistics about who is using the airport.

“We do have a taxation boundary for that area, but it is felt that there are people using the airport from outside the bound-

ary and that we should increase the boundary for tax purposes. This is going to be a process that will begin with working with the public in the area and communicat-ing details on what kinds of tax increase it would involve,” Williams ex-plains.

Aside from increasing the boundary as a way of securing more funding, funding is already com-ing from the CRD, BC Towns for Tomorrow and Northern Development

Initiative Trust for the ex-tension and construction of a terminal building.

“The Ulkatcho band is working on getting some funding because they use the airport for medi-cal reasons and for band business, their enterprise and enterprise use. They are looking at what they can provide in terms of

funding,” William says. William has received

e-mails from constituents that aren’t happy about increased taxation, some claiming their taxes have tripled in a decade.

“It will be a lot of work for the commission to figure out what’s going to work. People will need to understand exactly

what’s involved with the airport. Some people are saying they don’t use the airport and should not have to pay, but they are already paying,” he says.

According to CRD sta-tistics for 2011, the Ana-him Lake Airport had a total of 1,116 plane arriv-als and departures; 35 of those were medevacs.

Teenager goes missing againThe Williams Lake

Lightning storms over the weekend ignited 12 wildfires in the Cariboo region.

Ranging in size from spot fires to the largest being approximately 13 hectares in size, seven of the fires have already been called out and no structures are immedi-ately threatened by any of the fires that are still

burning, says the Cari-boo Fire Centre.

“The closest ones to Williams Lake are at Redstone proper and on Baldface Mountain about 10 kilometres west of Itcha Ulgachuz Provincial Park,” fire information officer Jen-ny Fremlin says. “Both are estimated at approx-imately 13 hectares in size.”

There are two heli-copters, 54 personnel

and two pieces of heavy equipment working on the fire at Redstone and airtankers actioned this fire on both Saturday and Sunday. “Yester-day’s (Sunday’s) fire activity was mostly low intensity ground fire,” Fremlin says.

At the Baldface Mountain fire, 41 per-sonnel and two helicop-ters are on site and as at Redstone, Sunday’s fire activity was mostly low

intensity ground fire.“Crews are making

good progress on both of the fires,” Fremlin says.

Environment Canada says there were around 1,750 cloud-to-ground lightning strikes in the Cariboo region between Saturday at 5 p.m. and Sunday at 5 p.m.

The public assisted in locating many of the fires from this past weekend, and the Cari-

boo Fire Centre would like to thank the public for continuing to report wildfires.

To report a wildfire or unattended camp-fire, call *5555 on your cellphone or call 1-800-663-5555 toll-free.

NDP candidate Charlie Wyse is calling on Cariboo Chilcotin Liberal MLA Donna Barnett to speak out against the govern-m e n t ’ s plans to p r iva t ize the BC Li-quor Dis-t r ibu t ion B r a n c h ( L D B ) following the release of docu-m e n t s s u g g e s t -ing “the deal may be influ-enced by L i b e r a l insiders.”

In a press release issued July 13, Wyse said a freedom of in-formation request re-leased July 12 shows that cabinet ministers in the Lib-eral gov-e r n m e n t were ini-tially op-posed to privatiza-tion of the LDB.

Follow-ing meet-ings with lobbyists P a t r i c k K i n s e l l a and Mark Jiles the g o v e r n -ment re-versed its earlier op-position to the planned privatization, Wyse said.

“Once more this government is favour-

ing its friends at the expense of the people of this province.”

Wyse asked for a business plan and con-sultation with the beer and wine industry or the restaurant associa-tion,

“In the middle of s u m m e r , when many p e o p l e are away on holi-days, the L i b e r a l s appear to be hard at work mak-ing deals with their f r i e n d s ,” Wyse said.

R e -s p o n d i n g F r i d a y

Barnett told the Tri-bune she had not seen any business plan or business case as of yet and had no comment.

“We can’t always say no to everything and we can’t al-ways say yes to ev-erything,” B a r n e t t s a i d . “These de-cisions are made by c a b i n e t . I haven’t seen any b u s i n e s s plan yet so I don’t have an

opinion either way. But if it is a good busi-ness plan and will save B.C. taxpayers money, I’m all in favour of it,” Barnett said.

A dozen wildfires start over the weekend

Police respond to fires, thefts and vandalismPolice responded to a

number of incidents over the weekend, ranging from arson to theft.

• At 8:16 p.m. Satur-day, July 14 the Williams Lake RCMP responded to a report that a youth had set fire to a garbage can at the skateboard park located at 525 Proc-tor St.

Witnesses reported that the youth had a can of bear spray and, when the top broke off, he placed the can into the garbage container and lit it on fire. The fire department attended to extinguish the small fire. The matter is still under investigation.

• At 2 a.m. Sunday, July 15 the Williams

Lake RCMP responded to a call in the vicinity of the Cariboo Memorial Hospital (517 Sixth Ave. North) that there was a male in a black hoody and a red hat, who ap-peared to have a machete tucked into his pants. Po-lice arrived and located a male who had a knife in his left hand. The male was placed under arrest for possession of a con-cealed weapon.

The male was identi-fied and confirmed as be-ing a youth; consequent-ly he was released to the custody of his mother and released without charge as no offences were com-mitted.

• At about 2:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 15 the

Williams Lake RCMP responded to a report of a house fire.

The report was that an apartment on Third Av-enue had a lot of smoke in it and the stove was on. Police attended and entered the unit, which was filled with thick smoke.

There was no fire; however, burnt food in a pan on the stove was de-termined to be the cause. Police located the oc-cupant of the residence, sleeping on the couch, roused him and got him out of the apartment.

The occupant was un-harmed.

The building fire alarm went off causing the ten-ants to vacate for a short

time. The Williams Lake fire department attended to ensure no possibility of fire and to clear out the smoke. Once smoke cleared residents returned to their suites. No further action by police was re-quired.

• At about 2:42 a.m. on Sunday, July 15, police responded to a report of a break, enter and theft at a vendor tent at the Arts on the Fly festival in Horse-fly.

Police spoke with the owner of the vendor tent, who stated that some-one had broken into his business tent, damaged approximately $3,000 worth of the merchan-dise, and stolen approxi-mately 104 Silver ster-

ling rings (the rings are worth approximately $20 each). The matter is still under investigation and anyone with information is asked to contact the Williams Lake RCMP or call Crimestoppers.

• On Sunday, July 15, at about 9:37 p.m, the Williams Lake RCMP received a complaint of vandalism involving gar-den hoses that had been cut at 705 Midnight Dr. at the Kings Court apart-ments.

No suspects were identified. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Williams Lake RCMP 250-392-6211 or call Crime Stop-pers at 1-8000-222-TIPS (8477).

A two-year review of the Cariboo Regional District’s solid waste management operations has resulted in an im-plementation plan that will guide the Cariboo Regional District over the next decade.

Setting a goal to achieve 50 per cent waste reduction by 2021, and a long-term goal of zero waste, the plan sets goals for more recycling, more manned sites in rural communi-ties, eco depots where people make one stop, saving costs, enforcing waste bylaws, and im-proving education.

At a special board meeting held July 12, members of the CRD passed a resolution to approve the plan in principal and forward it to member munici-palities for review and comment.

“It’s the largest pub-lic consultation we’ve ever done,” CRD chair Al Richmond said of the last two years.

CRD staff held open houses, 800 citizens an-swered CRD surveys, and another 400 are on a mailing list, wanting constant updates on the plan’s development.

Over 70 per cent of respondents want expanded recycling, especially in rural ar-

eas, manager of en-vironmental services Mitch Minchau told the board.

He described the plan as a working document that gives the CRD a vision of where people think solid waste man-agement needs to go.

Area F director Joan Sorley voiced approval of the plan, pointing out there are steps within it to review it on a regular basis.

“We could put a halt and rethink things; the way it’s laid out allows time for that,” Sorley said.

100 Mile Mayor Mitch Campsall raised concerns about increas-ing costs for taxpayers, and asked if there were ways to make programs cost neutral.

Estimated costs of eco depots is $206,332 a year per site- less af-ter capital is paid.

“We could save in hauling costs if we compressed waste, and pay for 10 contracted operators to man sites,” Minchau responded. Presently the CRD is spending around $250,000 a year clean-ing up illegal dumping.

Area H director Margo Wagner told the board the transfer sta-tion at Forest Grove receives truck loads of waste from other areas.

“Forty to 50 per cent of the waste is coming

out of the area to Forest Grove. We’re serving a much larger popula-tion because people will haul stuff to our site because they don’t have to pay.”

Area A director and vice-chair Ted Arm-strong was the sole per-son who voted against approving the plan in principal, indicating the costs could “sky-rocket” and he wanted more information about possible returns, par-ticularly from different steward agencies.

“I’m not comfort-able with the way it’s presented right now,” Armstrong said.

Although Campsall voted in favour of ac-cepting the plan in principal, he said he’s concerned about the costs of operating eco depots.

“This is one of the biggest downloads I’ve ever seen by provincial and federal govern-ments to require region-al districts to handle the costs of handling large recyclable items,” he said.

Solid waste supervi-sor Tera Grady pointed out it costs $100 a tonne to haul waste material to Gibraltar Mine.

“It is a benefit to di-vert material so we’re no longer landfilling it — financially and environmentally. A lot of these materials have

hazardous waste in them,” she said.

Delaying implement-ing a new plan any fur-ther was a concern for director Bruce Rattray.

“There is a lot of good stuff in the plan that I think we need to get on. A lot of it fo-cuses on extended ser-vices and extension of the recycling program, but I think the eco de-pot concept is a good concept.”

“One of the major problems with a re-cycling program is if people have to travel all over town to find where to drop stuff off. What-ever we do has to be a sort of one-stop shop. There has to be an abil-ity to do that.”

How that’s imple-mented, or what kind of relationship tran-spires with stewards, will have to be worked out, he added.

“We’ve got some work to do, but if you look at the timeframe in the plan, there’s lots of time to do it.”

Grady explained the plan will now be pre-sented to member mu-nicipalities over the summer, and the board will consider any re-quested changes in September.

“Once approved, the plan will be sent to the Minister of Environ-ment for review in Oc-tober and then can take

up to three months be-fore we’ll hear back,” Grady said.

CrD directors deliberate over solid waste plan

The Yunesit’in (Hanceville) First Na-tion will benefit from the fourth round of funding from the First Nations Clean Energy Busi-ness Fund with capacity funding of $15,000.

Project details include determining the reasons residential power costs are so high and estab-lish methods on how to reduce power costs for the Yunesit’in school. As part of its energy ef-ficiency and clean en-

ergy feasibility study, Yunesit’in intends to conduct assessments of both residential homes and the school and as-sess the net benefits of installing a solar thermal or geo-exchange system for the school and health centre.

“The first step in achieving any goal is to fully understand the scope of the objective,” says Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett. “Helping the Yunesit’in

First Nation with a Clean Energy Business Fund payment will help them get started with this very important proj-ect.”

Band manager Lena Hink thanks Chief Ivor Myers, councillors Gabe Pukacz, Darnell Myers, Molly Hink and Douglas Myers, and economic development officer Heather Curtis for the good news that Yunesit’in’s submit-ted proposal has been

approved by the First Nations Clean Energy Business Fund Commit-tee .

“We would like to thank the Ministry of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation for providing the opportu-nity to submit our fea-sibility study project to consider alternative/joint power sources for residential and busi-ness buildings in the Yunesit’in community,” Hink says. “We are ex-

cited to do the study and investigate numerous options available in our area for this fiscal year.”

Minister of Aborigi-nal Relations and Rec-onciliation Mary Polak adds: “The range and quality of applications to the First Nations Clean Energy Business Fund underlines First Nations’ willingness to embrace clean energy. These projects provide greener sources of pow-er for their communities and create economic opportunities that will benefit all British Co-lumbians.”

Including the most recent May 2012 intake, the fund has provided al-most $2.5 million to 53 aboriginal communities across B.C. to support First Nations participa-tion in the clean energy sector.

This funding is from

the fourth call for appli-cations. The next intake of applications closes at the end of September 2012.

The First Nations Clean Energy Busi-ness Fund promotes increased First Nation participation in the clean energy sector through:

• Revenue-sharing from eligible clean en-ergy projects based on revenues derived from water rentals and land rents;

• Equity funding of up to $500,000 for First Na-tions to invest in clean energy projects and help communities attract fur-ther investment; and

• Capacity develop-ment funding of up to $50,000 to support First Nations with commu-nity energy planning, feasibility studies or en-gagement with private sector proponents of

clean energy projects. A Community Energy

Plan is the initial step for a community to estab-lish energy objectives, develop an overview of the community’s current and projected energy demand, and identify viable energy efficiency and clean energy devel-opment opportunities to pursue.

The First Nations Clean Energy Business Fund was announced as part of the Clean En-ergy Act in 2010 and was created to support First Nations and new power projects with an initial contribution of $5 million from B.C. A percentage of land and water rentals generated by eligible projects will be returned to the fund with the goal of the fund becoming completely self-revenue generating in the future.

A look at priorities

Input on forestry due FridayAnother empty storefront

downtown with Fields store gone.

The other day I came across a copy of the strategic priorities adopted for Williams Lake in the early days of the Kerry Cook council. Number 7 was “Lively Downtown.”

It’s getting less lively all the time, I would say.

T h e priorities are the v i s i o n for the city, and

it’s early days to be sure, but how are we doing with other strategies? I’d give full marks for arts/culture/heritage. We have the arts centre and a heritage committee. Active and convenient transport? Go Bus hours have been extended. World-class recreation? Pool improvements are underway, and we have a dog park and plans for trails. Partnering with First Nations? OK with some bands, iffy with others. Local Food/ Agri-culture? City supports non -profit groups (i.e. farmers markets, com-munity gardens). Cherished local ecosystems. Council dropped the sustainability committee. Don’t hear much from the water committee, but the Water Wise program is still going strong. Citizens are “green-ing” themselves with two new non-profit groups and the Green Gazette newspaper. Is the installation of the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning system) at city hall counted as green?

I don’t know about social well be-ing, but like the lively downtown, we aren’t moving forward very fast with either resilient economy or afford-able housing/liveable neighbour-hoods. Any non-profit groups out there willing to get the ball rolling?

***What is the difference between a

protest and an information rally? We can find out July 19.

The inherent problems associated with the proposed Enbridge pipe-line caught the attention of Premier Christy Clark after reports of the company’s inability to deal quickly and effectively with a major spill in the U.S. hit the headlines. A caravan travelling from Nelson to Kitimat, with stops along the way, will be at Herb Gardner Park at 11 a.m. Thurs-day and will have information on the B.C. part of the pipeline.

It’s no surprise to anyone read-ing this that the mountain pine beetle outbreak has affected our

region in a colossal way. Over the last 13 years, the outbreak

has affected an estimated 18.8 million hectares of forest in our province. In some regions, the blow is gently felt; in others, it has citizens very con-cerned about their futures as timber supply is imperative to the economic successes of their communities — to the livelihood of their families.

On May 16, the Legislative As-s e m b l y of British Co lum-bia ap-poin ted the Spe-cial Com-mittee on

Timber Supply to examine and make recommendations to address the loss of mid-term timber supply in the cen-tral interior. I was happy to be a part of this committee as I know for cer-tain residents in the Cariboo-Chilcotin need this challenge addressed, and answers brought forward. We’ve been focused on understanding how we can possibly increase timber supply, and which areas require change to legisla-tion and/or key implementation tools. We’ve also kept in mind things such as fiscal commitments, environmental standards, maintaining a competitive forest industry, and other rights and agreements already in place.

The public had the opportunity to contribute to this discussion by having presented at one of our public hearings which just wrapped up last week, and you still have until Friday July 20 to submit a written or video submission at www.leg.bc.ca/timbercommittee/written-submission.asp.

Throughout the public hearings, I was overwhelmed with the hard work and time people put into contributing to this discussion. There is a clear pas-sion and drive from citizens invested in B.C. forests. We have received a vast amount of quality information over the last few weeks and we look forward to bringing forward our rec-ommendations next month. The re-port on our findings to the Legislative Assembly is due on Aug. 15.

Ever since I was involved in the Beetle Action Coalition right from its very inception, we’ve been working hard towards diversifying our situa-tion, and ensuring that if there is a loss, that there is still a bright future ahead.

Time to gas the taxIt is really interesting the B.C. Liberal government is

asking British Columbians to supply written submissions on the Carbon Tax to “help inform the comprehensive review” announced in Budget 2012 by Finance Minister Kevin Falcon.

This is especially interesting because the request comes at the same time as the most recent Carbon Tax hike on July 1, which took it from 5.56 cents to 6.67 cents per litre. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation estimates British Co-lumbians will pay $1.8 billion in taxes at the gas pump this year.

It should be noted Statistics Canada numbers show the amount of gas purchased since the tax started in 2008 has risen slightly rather than gone down as the aforemen-tioned government promised us when it launched the plan to reduce greenhouse gases. According to a B.C. Liberal government, it announced the review back in February to look at “all aspects of the carbon tax, including revenue neutrality, and will consider the effect of the tax on the competitiveness of British Columbia businesses.”

That announcement came on the heels of a public up-roar over the fact school districts and hospitals were pay-

ing carbon taxes to the Pacific Carbon Trust, which, in turn, handed them over to the province’s biggest polluters, and some of the biggest companies, to pay for projects to help them try to reduce the greenhouse gases they were produc-ing. Meanwhile, families that are struggling to make ends meet are paying for Big Business to green up.

This appears to be the modus operandi of the Premier Christy Clark government. It will do what it wants to do until there is a boisterous public outcry and the party falls further in the polls.

Then the government has a miraculous epiphany and decides it’s time to go to the people to see what is most popular outside of the castle in Victoria.

This means it will ask the public to send presentations to a government website. However, that doesn’t mean they will hold town-hall meetings in every constituency in fear of gathering like-minded people who will protest against the Carbon Tax altogether.

Perhaps, the B.C. Liberals feel they have to increase the tax even further because it’s not slowing down gas pur-chases.

Don’t build the mine; leave our land alone

Ground breaks for Memory Garden July 28

Editor:Re: Chilcoton territory versus

New Prosperity mine.

This is what I think of this. I can’t believe what’s happening. First in-dustry is taking all the trees by the truck load after truck load out of

our natural Mother Earth. There are clear cuts all over the place. When is it going to stop? Until we have no more trees left?

There’s no ending to this. They just keep taking and cutting every-thing in sight. How greedy can you get?

Now you want to put mines on our Chilcotin land. What next? Will everything get contaminated and polluted? What’s going to be left for our generations to come? Nothing?

You talk about protecting our land. You can’t. The area won’t be

left the same after you’re done and made billions of dollars out of our land.

Mother Earth is sacred to us and that’s why we are trying to keep its natural resources, which we, the Chilcotin people, live off to survive. Our livelihoods are being

taken away from our children. The bottom line is nothing is going to be the same after you people are done (forget about promises). Once the land is ruined, it’s never ever going to be the same. Leave it alone.

news

The memory garden located on Carson Drive below Williams Lake Secondary School will have a ground breaking ceremony on July 28 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

At a committee of the whole meeting July 10, council received an update from Cody Slinn and Michelle Daymond, food action co-ordinators with the Food Policy Council.

Slin told council future plans for the 25,000-square-foot site, includ-ing erecting a fence, building 40 raised beds, and erecting two green-houses, a composting centre and a community root cellar.

Fencing would keep deer out and act as a sound barrier and a visual boundary.

“We also want to offer on-site gardening lessons,” Slin said.

The name for the garden was cre-ated two years ago by students from the high school. The incentive being that the community garden would

be a place were great memories would be made.

This summer energy will be fo-cused building the garden, putting in a cover crop, but growing in 2013.

“There’s a lot of soil improve-ment that needs to be done there,” Daymond said.

So far funds for the garden have come from the Williams Lake & District Credit Union ($3,000), United Way ($18,000), and a grant-in-aid from the city ($3,000).

One of the stumbling blocks has been obtaining insurance, due to its cost.

“It’s a high risk because there’s no history with community gardens. Insurance companies see them as public spaces,” Daymond explained, adding throughout the entire history of the community garden located beside Cariboo Lodge, there’s only been one turnip stolen and no van-dalism.

As the Food Policy Council looks further down the road, it will con-tinue to research insurance costs, involve students in the project, and

partner with the local arts commu-nity.

“We will be writing proposals

and fundraising. The vision is to create beauty and gather commu-nity,” Slinn said, adding the group

has a landscape designer helping them draw up an official layout for the garden.

smoke on the Water just a swim away

It’s time to put on your suits and swim caps to get ready for the third annual Smoke on the Water open water distance swim races.

The all-ages race, hosted by the Williams Lake Blue Fins Swim Club, includes options of a 750-metre, 1,500-metre, or 3,000-metre swim.

The event will include gold, silver, and bronze medals being awarded in all three distances for each age category.

Blue Fins head coach Marilyn Haines notes that last year the event had 18 competitors, so ev-eryone swam away with a gold, silver or bronze medal.

“We are still trying to grow the event,” Haines says, adding that swimmers of all levels are en-couraged to participate.

“You don’t have to be a com-petitive swimmer. You don’t have to be a pro-triathlete. Anybody who has an average swimming ability can definitely get through a 750-metre race, which is about 30 lengths of the pool.”

She says those who tried swim-ming in the 750-metre category

the first year chose to step it up the following year and go for the 1,500-metre race.

Haines adds that Chimney Lake makes for a perfect spot to hold the races, due to it being clear and warm by early August.

The race starts and finishes at the public beach.

The 750-metre swimmers go around a short buoy — 375 me-tres each way. The 1,500-metre

swimmers go around a buoy that is 750 metres away, and then the three-kilometre races go around that twice.

“We get really good commu-nity support from the people of Chimney Lake,” Haines adds.

“Often they come out and cheer everybody on, and we have lots of volunteer support as well. There’s lots of supervision on the water. We’ve got kayakers, as

well as people in aluminum boats and speed boats that are supervis-ing the course.”

Smoke on the Water takes place Sunday, Aug. 12 and runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The $30-entry fee includes a light breakfast after the race and a cap.

For further information, e-mail [email protected] or call Haines at 250-305-9546.

Summer is upon us and about one third of the riding season has al-ready passed.

Many may be won-dering what happened to the Dirty Knobby. Good news — the Dirty Knob-by 2012 has not passed you by.

The Dirty Knobby 2012 will be on Sept. 8 in the Mountain House Road area. It will be hosted by members of the Williams Lake Off Road Motorcycle As-sociation. It will (as always) be open to all ages and skill levels, with more fun and activ-ities planned than ever before.

A possible change in location may provide a much improved parking area and room to host this event. Visit www.wlorma.ca for updates on events and locations. Printed advertising will precede this fall’s event too.

WLORMA encour-ages all off-road users to respect the areas and other users of the places in which they recreate. Be sure to ask for per-

mission for access to pri-vate property, be sure to close all range gates that you open, be respectful around cattle and hors-es, and be aware that mountain bikers, hikers and horseback riders share the same areas as we do.

The association would also like to give a huge high five to the moun-tain bikers in the area for the success of their registered trail network on Fox Mountain. As the association is also pursu-ing a registered trail net-work, it says it admires the amount of time and commitment that a small group of riders have giv-en for the good of a huge demographic of riders — members or not.

WLORMA asks all dirtbikers to show the utmost of respect for the hard work that has gone into the Fox Moun-tain network by pass-ing through these areas cautiously, staying off of man-made obstacles, and remembering that most mountain bike traffic flows downhill — don’t ride against the

flow to avoid accidents and conflict.

Heed the non-motor-ized postings on some of the trails by using other trails. Through hard work and co-oper-ation there will always be room for all two-wheeled users to ride in harmony.

The annual, famous Overlander Cross Coun-try is scheduled for the Sept. 9. The association looks forward to see-ing all of you out at the event to spectate and maybe even ride with some of the best in the province.

The association re-minds trail users that riding on Crown land is a privilege — not a right — so responsible, respectful, and a good ambassador for the sport that many of us love so much — dirt biking!

As WLORMA is a non-profit organization, the association encour-ages anyone interested to join and become a member.

Membership info is available on the associa-tion’s website.

This year at the joint West Coast Adventist School and Cariboo Ad-ventist Academy gradu-ation ceremonies held in Williams Lake, parents were emotionally moved as a tearful Rita Bryant, of Terrace, paid tribute to the parents of students in this year’s graduating classes.

Earlier in the month, the graduating classes of the two schools had se-lected Rita to deliver this year’s tribute to parents.

She was excited to be given this opportunity on behalf of the class and began right away to pre-pare the speech that she would deliver to the sig-nificant people in these students’ lives.

With the help of her father, Peter, she drafted the speech, the contents of which were kept as a secret surprise for her mother to be delivered on the Friday night of graduation weekend.

Rita has been a student of West Coast Adventist School, the distributed learning school operated by the British Colum-bia Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church office of educa-tion, located in Williams Lake for the past four years.

She began attending

online classes when she entered Grade 9 and con-tinued to attend as her family moved a couple of times around the prov-ince.

Over those years she developed friend-ships with her online classmates and came to know them better when she visited the school for Face 2 Face Weeks. These are times when online students come to attend classes at Cariboo Adventist Academy to enhance their academic experience.

On the morning of Fri-day, June 1, one week be-fore graduation, tragedy struck the family when Peter was killed in a heli-copter crash just outside of Terrace. It was not known if Rita would be able to attend graduation, let alone give the speech she and her father had worked on together.

By the beginning of the following week it was apparent that Rita would be attending, and she was still determined to de-liver that speech. Bailey

Helicopters, Peter’s em-ployer, arranged for two of their employees, both personal friends of Rita’s father, to join the family for the weekend in Wil-liams Lake, and to “stand in” for her father.

On the Friday night of graduation, Rita ap-proached the microphone and began delivering the tribute to the parents. In

the second row, Rita’s mom, Vi, could be seen watching her daughter. At the beginning, Rita faltered a bit, and one of her classmates came and stood by to hold her hand.

With great determina-tion she continued on saying, “I want to break this down into two parts, since there is a mom and

a dad.” When she con-cluded speaking about the support given by their mothers to the grads, it looked like Rita might not be able to continue as she transitioned to speak-ing about fathers.

When her classmates saw she was beginning to become overwhelmed with emotion, her en-tire grad class came and gathered close around her to lend their support to her.

As Rita completed her tribute to parents, sur-rounded by her fellow classmates, the entire auditorium stood to their feet in ovation to this young girl’s courage and determination.

CAA students host “A Night at the Museum”

During the last week of school, Grade 7 and 8 students at Cariboo Ad-ventist Academy brought a special treat to the community by putting on what they called “A Night at the Museum.”

Under the direction of their teacher, Ms. Meryl Carey, students chose and researched individu-als who lived during the Renaissance period of history.

The students then used this information to write their own scripts describ-ing who these people were, the influence they had during this period, their accomplishments, and any other “interest-ing” facts they could find out about these people.

The students donned period costumes created by Carey and her mother,

Teri, to complete their persona.

Not only did the stu-dents research their characters, but they also

created models of the technology or props that would be associated with them.

Around the gymnasi-

um there was Michelan-gelo painting the Sistine Chapel ceiling, daVinci with a model of his flying machine, Galileo and his telescope, a banker from Florence, Guttenberg and his printing press, mystics, other painters and inventors, as well as some figures from the ar-istocracy.

Each character was frozen in place until the patrons to the “museum”

dropped their coins into the boxes by each char-acter, then they would come alive to tell their story.

Funds raised from the event were given to the Cariboo Adventist Acad-emy Home and School Association to go toward purchasing decorations for the float that was part of the Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade on the July long weekend.

Horsefly group raises $1,100 for ALS Society

Sheryl and Ron Viher with son Patrick and grandson Thomas were joined by Esther Os-chwald, Karen Jenkins and Monika Schlaep-fer from the Horsefly Ladies Walking Club for the annual Walk for ALS in Williams Lake.

Ron has a sister with ALS, and Esther lost a brother Ernst to ALS in 2010. Between the Horsefly Ladies Walk-ing Club and the Vi-her family $1,100 was raised for the ALS so-ciety.

ALS stands for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, sometimes referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease, and

there is simply no way to sugar coat the out-come of ALS. Average survival depending on different factors is 39 months from time of diagnosis.

Anyone who has been told they have cancer knows that ini-tial feeling of shock; however, there is al-ways hope that with treatment, survival is possible. With ALS it is only a matter of time until one becomes completely unable to function.

It is an extremely rare disease with no real known cause, and no cure. There is some evidence ALS is genet-ic in some families, but nothing can be nailed down as fact. It is a

frightening prospect to say the least.

The B.C. Supreme Court has turned down every attempt by peo-ple with ALS to be al-lowed to have assisted suicide; the most fa-mous B.C. case being Sue Rodriguez, who was assisted by another person with MP Svend Robinson present, and currently Gloria Tay-lor, another B.C. resi-dent is petitioning the Supreme Court, but time is running out for her.

As I write this article, the BC Supreme Court granted Gloria Taylor’s petition, but now the federal Supreme Court has already stated it will not agree, and so it continues.

They are highly trained and dedicated professionals. Let’s not forget their families who experience, all the disappointments when the paramedic is sent on a long call at the end of his or her shift. It’s family time they will never get back. If you want to become a paramedic, consider the cost. When someone needs help, we’re dedicated to respond as quickly and safely as possible and to provide the best possible service to the fine people of British Columbia. The problem is time; time is our enemy.

Thank You!

for your big hearts & strong dedication to our community.

Kamloops Air Vac #370 Bravo... this Ambulance Helicopter covers our whole area in case of an emergency and has flown out here quite frequently.

Alexis Creek Ambulance is a vital service in the community, covering a huge area from Tatla Lake to Riske Creek, and the only ambulance service between Williams Lake and Anahim Lake, often using Kamloops Air Vac depending on the emergency.

The crews have to work against poor weather and road conditions, often putting their lives on the line to get patients to definitive care.

We would like to give a special thank you to the bystanders, the community, the Alexis Creek RCMP and Outpost Nurses for assisting us this past year. We could not have done it without you.

Eleanor CooperActing Unit Chief, Alexis Creek Ambulance
