Kim Ohrling of 100 Mile House is the latest lottery winner in British Columbia after scratching a winning Set for Life ticket.

Lottery has woman “Set for Life” Arlene Jongbloets Free Press

Hairstylist Kim Ohrling of 100 Mile House is feeling like a cut above the rest after winning the top prize on a BC Lottery Corporation Set for Life Scratch and Win ticket. The lucky ticket was one of three she purchased on a whim on June 3 at a Kamloops drug store, while in town for a hair show. It remained untouched until June 6 when she was back at home, alone, enjoying a cup of coffee. “I wasn’t sure at first when I scratched

it and had to look at it a few times. I called my husband (Ed Ohrling) and told him that he’d better come home, but he didn’t believe it either.” The couple took the ticket to the local Husky gas station to have it checked. “The woman at the counter was so excited. Her terminal shut down and she made a call to the Lottery Corporation.

After giving it some serious thought, the couple has decided to have weekly winnings deposited into an annuity, which will be saved for retirement. “It secures our future,” Kim says, adding she wasn’t a regular Scratch and Win player before her windfall. “I used to buy tickets several years ago and never won anything. Now I’m thinking, ‘holy smokes, I guess people really do win’.”

Wine makers reap fruits of their labour Monika Paterson Free Press

“Literally flabbergasted” were the words Callie McHarg, of Grapes Galore Wine Shop, used to describe the feeling she had on June 10. That is when she got the news the wines she and Sharon Brooks made had won two gold, six silver and three bronze medals at this year’s International Wine Making Competition in Manchester, New York. McHarg notes the competition is the “Olympics of wine making,” The 20 bottles of wine they entered were among the 4,300 bottles of wine being judged from eight Canadian provinces

McHarg was extremely pleased with the silver-medal placing of their 100 Mile fresh rhubarb wine, as she used rhubarb from her neighbour’s garden. She was also happy their fresh fruit British Columbia-grown cranberry wine received a bronze medal.

In addition their sparkling dry Cellar Classic

Gewurztraminer wine won gold and Best-in-Show notori-

ety, and their Coffee Port wine also took a gold medal. Last year, McHarg and Brooks only entered four bottles of wine, but still received two gold medals, as well as a best in show. This awards competition is open to any wine makers from kit wines brewers to vineyard owners. It is quite the accomplishment for this 100 Mile House winemaking duo.

Old-Fashioned Doctors will vote on deal Western Church Service By Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. Liberal government has reached a tentative agreement for a fouryear contract with the province’s 10,000 family doctors and specialists. Victoria released few details of the agreement, which must be ratified by members of the BC Medical Association in a vote to be completed by the end of July. However, the BCMA board is recommending acceptance. Health Minister

Mike de Jong said the tentative deal represents a 1.5 per cent increase in the province’s overall budget for doctor fees over the first two years. That translates to an additional $45 million in each year. The proposed agreement doesn’t specify an increase for years 3 and 4, but it commits the government and the BCMA to negotiate that amount later. The health ministry promises the new deal will improve patient access to family doctors, including in rural areas, and

improve recruitment and retention of specialists. de Jong said an additional $20 million is available for specialists, but it is up to the BCMA’s various committees to work out how it is shared. “There will now be a discussion within the specialist groups about how that will be allocated.” The government is still negotiating with other health-care employee groups and much of the rest of the provincial public service, under a mandate the government

called “co-operative gains.” The ministry and the BCMA have agreed to a review of laboratory services that de Jong said may save $10 million to go to other priority areas.

PUBLIC HEARING

SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON TIMBER SUPPLY Chair: John Rustad, MLA (Nechako Lakes) Deputy Chair: Norm Macdonald, MLA (Columbia River–Revelstoke)

How can timber supply in BC’s central interior be increased? Forests make up nearly two thirds of the province and are an important economic, social and environmental resource in the lives of many British Columbians. Over the last 13 years the outbreak of mountain pine beetle has affected an estimated 18.1 million hectares of forest throughout BC. The effects of the infestation continue to present major challenges to the forest industry and communities in BC’s central interior. The all-party Special Committee on Timber Supply was appointed by the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia to examine and make recommendations to address the loss of mid-term timber supply in the central interior. Specifically, the committee must consider recommendations that could increase timber supply. A discussion paper describing the issue and outlining possible options is available online to inform and focus public input. The committee will be holding a public hearing in 100 Mile House on Thursday, July 5. British Columbians may also participate by sending a written submission, or a video or audio file. The deadline for public input is Friday, July 20, 2012. For more information, including meeting dates, locations and times of public hearings and to view the discussion paper, please visit our website at: www.leg.bc.ca/timbercommittee OR CONTACT:

Nordic Ski Society needs volunteers Ken Alexander Free Press

There was a good turnout for the recent 100 Mile Nordic Ski Society annual general meeting, and the consensus was the 2011/12 ski season was a very successful. Most of the executive members were willing to stand again and were voted back into their positions. Don McDermid has stepped down as grooming co-ordinator and Don Savjord will take over that position, says media co-ordinator Lauren Bock. “We are very grateful to McDermid for taking on the position last year and thank Savjord for stepping into the position now.” Most of the executive members have played a role on the executive for many, many years and are becoming burnt out, she says, adding the society needs a couple of volunteers to take on small jobs to help spread the load. Help is needed in the following areas: • Someone to

help organize coaching workshops (Barb Matfin will be the mentor). • A couple of people to be part of the adult events committee, which plans adult events such as Valentine’s ski, moonlight skis, ladies tea, but only requires a time commitment of a few hours. • Someone who enjoys writing, as the executive would like to have an occasional club newsletter. The 2012/13 executive includes president Nicola

Maughn, secretary Tracy Moore, treasurer Anke Zucchelli, registrar Maryanne Capnerhurst, media co-ordinator Lauren Bock, coaching co-ordinator Barb Matfin, skill development program co ordinator Colleen Ellens, grooming co-ordinator Don Savjord, trail maintenance co-ordinator Neil Manhard, and facilities co-ordinator Tom Puckett. Bock notes Deb Summers has agreed to co-ordinate the Challenge 300/500 again next year.

OPEN HOUSE

“We have two wonderful volunteers who have offered to write grant proposals. Thanks go to Kathleen Rotluff and Colleen Robb.” She adds the trail maintenance team has been already been working on improving the trails. If you are willing to help out with a couple of small jobs, contact Lauren at brucelauren@shaw. ca or Nicola at nem aughn@gmail.com.

Summer reading for children The Summer Reading Club registration begins soon at the 100 Mile Branch Library and parents are encouraged to sign their children up for some fun activities. This year the theme is “Strange... but True, and involves books, activities and games. The free series runs July 3 to Aug. 16 and ends with a party in Centennial Park.

Several choices of weekly days and times are available

in four different groups for children aged three-four, five-six, seven-nine and 10-12. Pre-registration is required in person at the library with Kendyl Boyd between June 15-28. “Regular reading during the summer helps kids to maintain or even improve their reading and literacy skills,” says Boyd. “Studies show voluntary

reading is the number 1 factor in establishing good reading habits.” Parents may choose one, hour-long program session each week offered for the younger age groups at various times on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays, while the aged 10-12 group is available Tuesday or Thursday from 3 to 4:30 p.m. The 100 Mile House Branch Library is located at 449 Birch Ave.

108 golfers weather the storm By Spence Henderson The sun came 24 hours late for the fairweather golfers at the 108 Men’s Night on June 6, as 27 “real” golfers showed up and played the men’s nine before the rain came, and seven of them shot 40 or better. In my fivesome, birdies were recorded by four of the golf-

ers, who qualified for prizes. Did I mention I didn’t earn a prize this week? Maybe fivesomes do work better than foursomes. There were five deuces. Unfortunately for some, four of them were in the first flight, so they were not as valuable as the sole second flighter Dan

Hadden’s deuce. Due to the smaller numbers, we only had two flights of golfers – zero to 12 handicaps and everybody else. Match play sign-up is over, but as of June 7, 25 golfers are in the competition. The Club Championship has been slated for the Aug. 18 weekend. First flight Shane Wilkie shot the low gross (34), while George McGibbon had the low net (gross 37

108 Mile Ranch youth golfing sensation Lynden Jeffrey competed in the Junior Simon Fraser Tournament in Prince George, June 9-10. He captured the overall low gross title by shooting the lowest two-day round, with scores of 74 on Saturday and 77 on Sunday. He was two shots better than the runner-up. Jeffrey also qualified for both provincial teams. He says he will definitely be attending the Juvenile Boys (16 years and under) that takes place in Princeton in August. However, he is sure if he’ll be competing in the Junior Boys (18 years and under) that takes place on Vancouver Island in July. Jeffrey’s next tournament will be the Kamloops City Junior Golf Championship at the Kamloops Golf and Country Club on June 24-25.

and net 34). Chris Stevens had a 37 and Tony Morete and Matt McNeil had 39s. Second flight Dean McNeil’s

score of 40 was good enough for low-gross honours. Tony Lidstone returned to action with the overall low gross for all golfers (42 gross, net 31).

One Day at a Time documents the tremendous revolution that took place in the B.C. Interior’s forest industry three and four decades ago. In one way or another, Dave Ainsworth has had his hand in every aspect of this revolution. Dave is one of those people who knows how to put his vision into practice. It’s this tremendous resourcefulness we owe him credit for. I know of no other book that so accurately records the vital changes that have taken place in the woods and at the sawmills; it’s a record that will beneﬁt the whole industry. ~ Ray Williston, B.C.

BUY A GARAGE SALE PACKAGE AT THE 100 MILE FREE PRESS AND WE’LL HELP YOU HAVE A GREAT SALE! 10 TIPS TO A GREAT SALE! 1. Place your advertisement for 2 weeks in our classiﬁed section. 2. Call friends and neighbours to see if they’d like to do a sale together. The bigger the selection, the more customers you’ll have. 3. Give yourself a couple of days to get organized. 4. Gather boxes, newspapers, and bags to use during the sale to package purchases. 5. Set your dates and times. The ﬁrst and middle of the month are paydays for many people. 6. Take the time to clean up your items… products will sell better when they look “taken care of.” 7. Make the most of your display by setting up in a visible area such as the front yard, the driveway or near the curb. Don’t tuck yourself and your merchandise in a dark garage. 8. Label everything for sale with tape. Price it so you might consider buying it for yourself. 9. Before the sale, go to the bank. Get plenty of small bills and change to have on-hand. Keep a calculator handy for quick adding. 10. Be an entrepreneur. Make extra money by selling canned sodas, lemonade, etc., to shoppers. If you have kids, have them do this!

Area students learn about physical literacy By Monika Paterson Free Press

District of 100 Mile House Councillor Dave Mingo welcomed Avril Harris, of the Let’s Play Program, to 100 Mile House Elementary School recently. Harris brought 16 wheelchairs for the students to try. The program is intended to assist students with mobility limitations to become physically active early in life by helping establish the fundamental skills, knowledge and abilities that develop physical literacy and allow them to confidently participate in play, sports and physical education with their peers. As part of his welcome, Mingo had an opportunity to try one of the sports wheelchairs, and wheeled it forward and backwards in the gym. He notes it is easier pushing it straight, but manoeuvring, turning around and

going backwards, is harder than it looks. “It is good to have kids experience wheelchair athletics and you can participate with or without a disability.” Let’s Play also went to the Mile 108 Elementary School, where principal Tom Turner says it was a great day with all of the students having a chance to participate in the place of a physically challenged person. “Avril was excellent. He was energetic and tried to get the students into a frame of mind of a physically challenged person.” Students were amazed at how much work it took to participate. The other thing they learned was how to be a participant with a mobility-challenged person, he adds, and how they can help without doing it for them. The program also made stops at a number of other schools in the South Cariboo.
