Child struck by car A six-year-old student ran out from between parked vehicles without looking when she was struck by a car Monday afternoon. On June 18 at 3:09 p.m., members of Williams Lake RCMP Detachment responded to a report of a pedestrian motor vehicle incident on Cameron Street at Marie Sharpe School. Police say the child was running across the street to her mother’s vehicle that was parked on the other side of the street. The girl was not in a crosswalk at the time and the driver of the vehicle was unable to react in time to avoid hitting the child. When the child fell to the asphalt she sustained a two-centimetre superficial cut to her arm. She was taken to Cariboo Memorial Hospital where she was examined and released. No charges are being contemplated against the driver as a result of this incident.

Intoxicated pedestrian hit by vehicle

last weekend for Alice — a wonderland

Gaeil Farrar photo

There are just a few days left to catch the Williams Lake Secondary School production of Alice — A Wonderland, which introduces some bright young actors and singers to the theatre. In this scene Alice (Nicole Curbello, centre) meets the cranky Cook (Tabitha Campbell, left) and Duchess Tiger Lily (Willa Julius, right) with her strange little baby.

The driver of a vehicle that struck a pedestrian Tuesday night was not at fault, RCMP say. At about 11:15 p.m. on Tuesday, June 19, the Williams Lake RCMP and the BC Ambulance Service responded to a report of a pedestrian being hit by a car. Police say the driver of the vehicle reported that while travelling southbound on Highway 97 within city limits, a male ran in front of his vehicle attempting to cross the highway. The 26-year-old lakecity male pedestrian was struck by the passenger side mirror of the moving vehicle, having nearly made it safely to the highway’s shoulder. The RCMP say the driver could not be faulted as this occurred in an area where there is no pedestrian crossing, nor any street lights. The pedestrian was transported to Cariboo Memorial Hospital and, after causing problems for the medical staff who were attempting to care for him, was arrested and held in-custody by the RCMP until he sobered, police say.

Pool’s chlorine leak cost $65K Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer February’s chlorine leak and subsequent 26-day shutdown at the Sam Ketcham Pool in Williams Lake wound up costing $65,000. In a report to the Central Cariboo/City of Williams Lake Joint Committee, director of community services Geoff Paynton breaks down the costs. Direct revenue loss from the shutdown was $33,510. Additional staff costs for incident response, debriefing and interviews totalled $7,500, union management and investigation costs were $2,200, and a temporary disinfection system design and installation was $22,000. Finally, an independent investigation by the lifesaving society cost $3,000. “There is little chance much of this negative impact will be made up in revenue during the remain-

der of the fiscal year,” Paynton says in the report. Expenses are being closely examined and cost-saving options are being implemented, but Paynton notes since the incident there has been a sharp decline in the numbers of people using the pool. In a second report, Paynton says the temporary disinfection system that was installed will require immediate upgrades to make it permanent. That upgrade will cost an additional $17,500. A report from the mechanical engineers — AME Group — also recommends the addition of an Ultraviolet water treatment system to offset the reduction of water quality. The UV system would cost $64,000 for the main pool and $206,000 if all three pools were included. Paynton says there’s no capital money in the budget for the UV

system at this point, and recommends it be deferred to the 2013 budget. After receiving the reports at its regular meeting Tuesday, council approved the upgrade cost of an additional $17,500, and accepted the recommendation to defer the

UV system costs. “I have been told that the permanent system could be transferrable,” Mayor Kerry Cook says, adding she’s thankful that nobody was negatively impacted by the incident. “It could have been far worse.”

Several vehicle thefts Williams Lake RCMP received notice Friday that a 1994 white Cherokee jeep was stolen from a property at the corner of Exchaw Crescent and Broadway Avenue South, sometime between Thursday evening and Friday morning. The vehicle was later found abandoned on Second Avenue North. RCMP Sgt. Rick Lebeuf says it is believed the stolen jeep was used for a break and enter at the Overlander Pub beer and wine store Friday, where culprit(s) made off with a small amount of liquor.

There is an ongoing investigation of the incident by the forensic identification unit, in hopes to identify suspects, Lebeuf says. The break in at the beer and wine store is a separate break in from the one reported early Saturday morning. Between June 1 and 20, there have been 10 attempted theft of vehicles reported, and four vehicles that have been stolen making a total of 14, says John Pilszek of the Williams Lake RCMP detachment, operations support.

Alex Wasylenko has never written a letter to city hall until now. Concerns about the intersection on Smedley Street and 10th Avenue, where his house is situated, inspired him to write and request a four-way stop be put in place. He’s lived there for 16 years, there have been many close calls, and there was an accident in November that resulted in a car plowing into Wasylenko’s fence. “There are lots of people that I’ve noted don’t stop; they just take off. It’s driver error, but I’m concerned about the fact there are lots of children around here. The street below on Ninth and Smedley has a four-way stop and this one doesn’t for some reason,” he says, adding there’s no need for people to be whipping through the intersection, they should have to stop. In a letter to council, dated April 25, Wasylenko outlines his concerns. Many students are using 10th Avenue to drive to a convenience store nearby. As well, he notes, there are no stop signs WILLIAMS LAKE so HTV along 10th Avenue

Junior Youth Council members Patrick Newsome and Abbi Taylor represented the council Tuesday evening, giving a PowerPoint presentation on the council’s activities for city council.

Youth council wraps up term Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer As some of the members of Williams Lake Junior Council prepare to hand over the reins, a final report to city council shows how effective the council has been its formative year. Members Patrick Newsome and Abbi Taylor gave a PowerPoint presentation, outlining the year’s highlights, at Tuesday’s regular council meeting. In April, the council hosted and facilitated a two-day youth forum. On the first day 25

www.wltribune.com A3

adults participated. Both the adults and youth learned about the impact of stereotypes, which can include lower selfesteem, withdrawal from society, self-abuse and aggression. “The adults learned ways to approach youth and the benefits of involving youth,” Newsome said. At the second day of the forum, 25 youth from both high schools participated and generated a list of suggestions. Voicing appreciation for the outdoor and indoor recreational amenities in

Williams Lake and the presence of Thompson Rivers University, access to scholarships and the variety of shopping available, the youth also said they would like to see improvements and upgrades to trails, bike paths, and events for youth. Better transit service was also identified. The call has gone out for new council members and Newsome said so far six applications have come in. Coun. Sue Zacharias praised the youth council for its efforts and said she’s e-mailed the final

report to friends, developers, leaders, volunteers and business people in the community, asking what can be done to help the report’s suggestions come to fruition. “After reading your report, I was quite moved,” Zacharias said. “I felt that I learned something reading the report. I think the report is important for people to read to hear the ideas, issues and concerns of youth.” Upon receiving the report, council also passed a motion to forward it to refer it to the community services committee.

City expenses released Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer As required under legislation the city released its statement of financial information for 2011 and, according to Mayor Kerry Cook, the report includes more information than the city is legally required to include. “The report allows the public to see the actual expenses and salaries in an effort to be more transparent to the public,” she said. Under remuneration and expenses paid to council, Cook received $43,687 remuneration and had $6,782.12 in expenses. Former councillor Tom Barr had $13,970 and $2,128.40 in remuneration and expenses, respectively, and former councillor Natalie Lynn Montoya received $6,350, but had no expenses. Councillors Geoff Bourdon received

$15,240 and had $3,916.79 in expenses; Ivan Bonnell received $1,270 and had $75 in expenses; Danica Hughes received $1,270 in remuneration and had $75 in expenses; Surinderpal Rathor received $15,240 in remuneration and had $9,596.58 in expenses. Cook pointed out Rathor’s expenses were higher than hers because he had attended the Federation of Canadian Municipalities conference in Halifax on her behalf. Councillors Laurie Walters and Sue Zacharias also received $15,240, with Walters being reimbursed $4,995.07 for expenses and Zacharias $4,025.61. The total for elected officials in 2011 was $127,507.92 in remuneration and $31,594.56 in expenses. In addition, legislation requires the city

to release the salary rates of all employees earning over $75,000, although Mayor Cook explained the remuneration figures also include all taxable benefits such as life insurance and extended health. At the top of the spectrum, chief administrative officer Brian Carruthers was paid $149,482.69 and reimbursed $21,288.70 for expenses, and at the lower end, manager of active living Deborah Radolla received $79,623.62, and $1,864.91 for expenses. The total costs, including salaries, benefits and expenses for employees, including those earning less that $75,000, was $6,796,523.64 in remuneration and $104,218.08 in expenses. Cook said the report also includes the costs for volunteer firefighters, which was around $140,000 for the year.

Sockeye salmon stocks declining: Dr. Craig Orr Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Dr. Craig Orr, executive director of the Watershed Watch Salmon Society, describes Chilko and Quesnel Sockeye as special. “In particular, the Chilko Sockeye is the super Sockeye of the Fraser River,” Orr says, explaining it has the largest heart of all Fraser Sockeye and the most torpedo-shaped form for better swimming. That form comes in handy, because it has

one of the longest migrations, making its way back to the Chilko Lake system. In the beginning, Chilko salmon spawn in the tributaries of Chilko Lake, where the juveniles spend a year before migrating out to sea. In terms of the Fraser River, Chilko Sockeye also have the highest temperature tolerance of all Sockeye in the Fraser, Orr says. “Fraser Sockeye are undergoing a fair bit of thermal stress these days from climate change impacts.”

A study done by UBC faculty in 2011 states the temperature has increased by two degrees since the 1950s, with the last 20 years being some of the warmest on record. It also states there are more than 100 distinct populations of Sockeye salmon, and to spawn, each population completes a unique migration route. Some stocks, like Adams River stock, are quite susceptible to thermal stress, Orr adds. Watershed Watch was

an official participant and part of the conservation coalition during the 18 months of the Cohen Inquiry. While the report isn’t due until September, Orr references some of the findings from the inquiry and testimonies that wrapped up in December. Twenty participant groups participated in the inquiry over 180 days of testimony involving 181 witnesses speaking. “Something like 2,145 exhibits were officially tendered and there were

33 expert and policy and practice reports put out by the Cohen Inquiry. There’s a very large data base of information that came out of the inquiry.” Orr was an expert witness on water issues and salmon farming issues during the inquiry. He’s been involved with salmon conservation efforts since 1990. Watershed Watch has studied the impacts of salmon farming for the past dozen years on coastal populations of wild salmon. “We’re seeing severe

concerns over water for salmon around British Columbia, and impacts from gravel extraction, disease and sea lice.” From the inquiry people have a much better idea of the problems facing Fraser Sockeye, Orr says. The question is going to be around political will and whether changes in policies can occur to protect them. “It’s like a stock portfolio out there in the Fraser River. Not all Sockeye and not all stocks do equally well. Chilko

Sockeye have been one of the better performers in the Fraser and in the stock portfolio for many years, although recent trends suggest they’re declining as well.” Orr also currently serves as chair of the Pacific Marine Conservation Caucus and is the founding chair of BC Hydro’s Bridge Coastal Restoration program. He was to also make a presentation at the arts centre in Williams Lake Wednesday evening, after Tribune press time.

LOW FLOW TOILET / APPLIANCE REBATE PROGRAM The City of Williams Lake is pleased to announce its Toilet Replacement Incentive Program will be offered again in 2012, and has been expanded to include clothes washers and dishwashers The program has been designed to assist residents of Williams Lake in replacing their old inefficient toilets, clothes washers, and dishwashers with new, more efficient models . Older toilets can use as much as 20 litres of water per use whereas newer low flow toilets use only 4.8 litres or less, some using as little as 3 litres. As a result, changing only one toilet to a more efficient model can save tens of thousands of litres of water per year. Replacing residential toilets also saves wastewater entering the sewage treatment plant, saving on treatment costs and on the amount of effluent leaving the plant. A total of $25,000 is being made available for this program in 2012. The rebates are as follows: Toilets: • The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $75 for a 4.8 litre flush toilet. • The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $100 for a 4.8/3 litre flush toilet. • The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $125 for a 3 litre flush toilet. • A rebate for contractors who build new homes can receive a $75 rebate for installation of a 3 litre toilet instead of the standard 4.8 litre. Clothes Washers and Dishwashers: • Amount of the receipt to a maximum of $150 for appliances that have a Water Factor of less than 6, and the amount of the receipt to a maximum of $200 for appliances that have a Water Factor of 3 or less. For a list of appliances and the Water Factor, visit www.williamslake.ca. Click on Departments, Planning and Operations, Water Conservation. The City of Williams Lake will be implementing the Toilet Replacement Program between June 1 and August 31 on a first-come, first-serve basis. There is a limit of two toilet/appliance rebates per residential dwelling per year. Applications and information brochures are available at City Hall, and information brochures will be available online at www.williamslake.ca

PUBLIC INPUT SOUGHT ON RENTAL SUITES IN SINGLE FAMILY HOMES

New property owners are responsible for payment of their annual property taxes by the due date to avoid a 10% penalty, whether or not they receive a Property Tax Notice.

The City of Williams Lake encourages residents to fill out a survey in order to collect public input on rental suites in single family homes.

To avoid a penalty of 10%, payments and properly completed applications for the Northern & Rural Home Owner Grant (N&RHOG) must be received by 4:30pm, on the Property Tax Due Date, without exception. It is not necessary to make payment in order to apply for the N&RHOG.

A survey is available online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NN38NPT and at City Hall, 450 Mart Street.

KidSport Classic Run

The survey asks questions regarding whether the City should allow secondary suites where the homeowner does not live in the home, and how the City should approach duplexes with secondary suites. Currently, the Policy states that suites are not allowed in homes where the owner is renting both the main part of the house, as well as the suite. This requirement reflects a higher number of complaints about noise and property maintenance, where homeowners do not live in the home. It is believed that if the owner lives in the home, there will be fewer issues and complaints from both the neighbourhood and the tenant. Houses with both the main and secondary suite rented are not permitted and would either need to remove their suite or consider an application to rezone to an R-2 designation (Two Family residential).

Keep pets out of the heat

Roads and more roads

ith summer fast approaching, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to remind pet guardians across B.C. about the serious consequences for pets left inside cars on hot days. Every year, the SPCA receives hundreds of complaints about dogs left in hot cars because many people still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grasp the danger of this situation. Even if you park in the shade and it seems cool outside when you leave, the sun can change direction and heat up a carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interior in no time. With an outside temperature of just 26 C, the temperature inside a parked car at this time of year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even one thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the shade with the windows cracked â&#x20AC;&#x201D; can climb to above 37 C in just 10 minutes and 43 C in 20 minutes. A dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s normal temperature is 38 C. At 41C your dog begins to suffer irreparable brain damage or death. If you see a dog languishing in a hot car, call the SPCA, animal control or police. Before the authorities arrive, help prevent a tragedy by attempting to find the animalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guardian. If the car is in a mall or grocery store parking lot, for example, ask to have the owner paged over the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s PA system. Return to the car to monitor the dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition. Guardians should also use caution when exercising their pets under the sweltering summer sun. Signs of heatstroke in pets include exaggerated panting (or the sudden stopping of panting); rapid or erratic pulse; salivation; weakness and muscle tremors; lack of co-ordination; convulsions or vomiting; and collapse. If your dog shows symptoms of heatstroke, you should immediately move the animal to a cool, shady place; wet the dog with cool water (do not apply ice as it constricts blood flow); fan vigorously to promote evaporation; allow the dog to drink some cool water; and take the dog to a veterinarian. For more tips on how to keep your pet safe and happy this summer, visit spca.bc.ca. Lorie Chortyk is the general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA.

Our Viewpoint

Help for families Williams Lake now has a full-time pediatrician. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to believe that Williams Lake has been without one for more than five years. Though a pediatrician has visited the lakecity once a month â&#x20AC;&#x201D; coming all the way from Prince George â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to tend to patients, that is not enough (he will still come to Williams Lake each month because the need is just that great). We welcome Monica McKay and her family and hope they will enjoy our wonderful, little city and feel at home soon (see story page A15). She is an independent physician and has an office at the Cariboo Chilcotin Child Development Centre. A full-time pediatrician would reduce some of

the heavy workload experienced by the medical community in Williams Lake, as well as provide often critical and complex care to our youngest community members here â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in their hometown. Though we have a wonderful team of doctors, nurses, and other health professionals here, often a baby or small child needs an extra level of care, and their young age makes them especially vulnerable. Pediatricians are devoted to the care of infants, children, and adolescents. In addition to having a high level of training in diagnosing and managing acute and chronic illnesses in children, they also have extensive knowledge of child development and behaviour. Having a pediatrician here will definitely be a benefit and welcome addition to our community.

tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been great to have had some quality time in the constituency, and I feel like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m finally getting caught up on both individual constituent matters and community initiatives. One area that is always an ongoing concern for my MLA office is Musings our road Bob Simpson infrastructure, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a focus for me again these past few weeks. I had a good meeting with Ministry of Transportation senior staff to go over the various road projects and initiatives currently underway and planned for the near future. Along with the continuation of more four-laning of sections of Highway 97, there will be significant work undertaken to repair and upgrade a number of secondary and side roads throughout the region. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping that one of those projects will be the West Fraser Road, which needs significant repairs as soon as possible. The 150 Mile House road project, which is well behind schedule, will continue this summer and is to be completed by the fall. Ministry staff will closely monitor the contractor through the completion of this major project. The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (FLNRO) has begun work on the 3100 Road (the Likely-Wells connector road), which was washed out last spring. The road will be closed for about three to four weeks for blasting and repairs and should be reopened for the summer tourism traffic. In addition to maintaining and upgrading the road infrastructure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve asked both the MOT and FLNRO to look at the resource roads in our region with a view to ensuring that people living in either Quesnel or Williams Lake have easy access to the existing and potential mining opportunities throughout the region, and to ensure we can fully utilize our available timber supply.Â Â Investment in the strategic expansion of our road infrastructure is necessary to maximize economic development and job creation opportunities in our region. Bob Simpson is the Independent MLA for Cariboo North.

NDP needs to answer questions Question of the week Editor:

why has he not imposed this on the NDP? Is Dix saying this while collecting donations from unions? Could this be just another â&#x20AC;&#x153;sounds good to votersâ&#x20AC;? platform promise that may likely disappear if the NDP are elected with a majority? The silence of the NDP is unusal as they will not give a position statement on how they would handle the BCTF union demands. â&#x20AC;Ś They should let B.C. know their intentions and include the huge numbers of unionized public sector workers. If the BCTF gets a raise in these tough economic times, the rest of the public sector will get the sameâ&#x20AC;Ś hundreds of millions more for the taxpayers to fund in tough times.

Is the NDP the answer for British Columbia? Keeping quiet seems to be the only strategy the BC NDP has. While Adrian Dix supported removing the HST, his qualifying statement came after the vote. The NDP has always had hugely influenced ties by big unions, an antithesis of the Liberalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ties to big business. Neither position is good for B.C. in our turbulent times. Is it a question of the lesser of two evils as often said? Neither evil works. While Dix, NDP leader, talks about eliminating donations from unions and big business, an idea he seems to have borrowed from the BC First political organization,

Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t he answer some pertinent questions about taxes, union affiliations and donations (note where his contributions came from last election), health-care reforms, RCMP behaviour and contracts, Site C, the degrading of the B.C. utilities commission, and the proposed Taseko mine at Fish Lake? How would the NDP revitalize and reform forestry management? Just a few important matters to be answered. If the NDP canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deal with these problems then they should not hold any influence in our B.C. government. Gary Young Independent candidacy for the Cariboo-Chilcotin

It assisted in the visual upgrades to the old Petro Canada building on the corner of Third Avenue and Oliver Street where it now shares office space with Cariboo Growers and Community Policing. It also helped with the renovation of the Spirit Square, improved accessibility on sidewalks and streets in the downtown core of Williams Lake and improvements to downtown parking lots. It also hosts several events throughout the year including: Ladies Poker Run, Street Party, Art Walk and the Santa Parade and Winter Light up. The WLCBIA also acts to make the downtown safe. In 2010, in conjunction with the city, the WLCBIA worked to install a video camera surveillance system that is believed to have contributed to a reduction in crime in the downtown core. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Submitted by the Williams Lake & District Chamber of Commerce.

Locals prepare for Tough Mudder Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer

SPORTS NOTEBOOK Friday, June 22

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s referred to as the toughest event on the planet, and for good reason. The Tough Mudder, designed by British Special Forces, tests competitorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strength, stamina, mental fortitude and camaraderie through 10 miles of obstacles. For several Williams Lake teams, all of this will come into question this Saturday, June 23 when they join 16,000 other competitors at Whistlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Olympic Park to participate in the event â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the first of three Canada-wide stops this summer. The Williams Lake Fire Department, Concrete Fitness and a team of teachers, family members and friends are just three of several groups from the lakecity participating. Steve Dickens, Bobbie Dickens, Jason Greig, Brooke Greig, Becky Abrahams, Kevin Ernst and Shane Elzinga form one of teams. Steve said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not exactly sure what to expect, but have been preparing for some extremely challenging scenarios. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The one thing I understand about the Tough Mudder is there is no winner and there is no official times given,â&#x20AC;? Steve said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more of a team process where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re lucky just to make it through with your team and to complete all the obstacles.â&#x20AC;? Steve added the course consists of about 25 obstacles, including two secret obstacles, which will likely be situated on two Whistler ski runs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The two mystery obstacles on two hills â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I think one may be where competitors have to carry logs up a hill, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ski runs.

In preparation his team completed its own mini-mudder at Steveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inlaws. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bob and Lorrie Greig, who live out on English Road, they set up a course on the hill out there so we ran our team through, just so we could all meet and get to know each other,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We did log carrying, crawling through skinny culverts and mud bogs, walking on ropes, scaling walls and all that. So it was pretty cool.â&#x20AC;? The WLFDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team of Alain Lachapelle, Spring Wiebe, Kevin Holling, Tallon Rolston, Troy Feist, Rayna Carpenter, Trevor Schick, Ed Ma, Russ Brown, Andy Wiebe, Bob Campbell, Bonnie Gillis, Ryan Grove, Steve Carpenter and Tanya Kielpenski have been training near the River Valley Trail in Williams Lake.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We made a loop down there that incorporated crawling, climbing over logs, going through the river and going up hills,â&#x20AC;? Rayna said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about eight- to nine-kilometres and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done that a couple of times. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also hiked out at the end of Westridge and gone out past the power lines, then back around, which is about 15 kilometres.â&#x20AC;? Rayna said her teammates initially thought she was out of her mind when she suggested competing in the Tough Mudder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The day I went into the fire department and suggested we put a team in, I think every single one of those people called me crazy,â&#x20AC;? she joked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I started e-mailing and sending them links and slowly got more to join. It was fun forming this team.â&#x20AC;? Concrete Fitnessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team of Brian Doering, Stefan Hoelzler, Kim Col-

gate, Cher Sytsma, Mike Lenz, Don Lecomte, Jay Cheek, Brett Cheek, Kristen McDonald, Mike McDonald, Tyler Hamm and Arron Delay, was formed around New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Sytsma said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d seen some adds on Facebook and thought it would be fun. Soon after her brother, Tyler, asked if she wanted to start a team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought he was crazy,â&#x20AC;? Sytsma said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I started asking around at Concrete Fitness where I work and some people there said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d love to do it.â&#x20AC;? All of the teams participating this weekend have at least one thing in common â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they all want to start as a team and finish as a team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our main goal is to at least attempt every obstacle and finish,â&#x20AC;? Sytsma said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a race. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something we intend to do together and help each other through.â&#x20AC;?

Lakers sail to OV Pub slo-pitch championship Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Sixteen teams took part in the Overlander Pub Slo-Pitch Tournament on the weekend in Williams Lake, braving wet conditions in the name of fun and fundraising. The event, a fundraiser for the Williams Lake Slo-Pitch Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four fields at the Elser Sports Complex, even attracted three teams from Quesnel, two teams from 100 Mile House and another team from Mount Currie. Teams took part in a bracket-style playdown, eventually landing in one

of either the A, B or C divisions for playoff games Sunday. In the A division it was the Lakers taking first, knocking off the Rowdies in the final. In third place were the X-enders, from Mount Currie. The B division saw the Honey Nut Ichiros nab top spot, while the Wolf Pack took second and the Rookies claim third. The Wild Chickens won the Cdivision title, with the 2c Rez Riders finishing runner-up. Total cash paid out at the tournament was $2,700. Prize packages were also awarded to the winners including two MVP shirts to ev-

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 Williams Lake 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.

The Williams Lake Lightning emerged victorious for the fourth consecutive year from the Revelstoke Big Bear Soccer Tournament last weekend. The Lightning downed Canmore, 2-0, in the final.

Lightning four-peat in Revy Ryan Glanville. Williams Lake was placed in Pool B with Kelowna and Invermere. They picked up a 3-0 victory over Invermere in their opening game Saturday morning with Glanville scoring a pair and Chris Monteleone adding a single. In game two, later on in the day, the Lightning downed Kelowna 3-1 to win their pool and earn a spot in Sunday’s semifinal. Glanville scored another pair with Monteleone adding the other in the contest. Williams Lake took on Vernon Dynamite in the semis and Glanville finished with his third straight two-goal game. He notched a pair of second half goals from a free kick and a penalty shot to put the Lightning into the final. Williams Lake took on Canmore United in the final, a re-match from last year’s final which the

Lightning took by a 3-1 score. For the final, Williams Lake were down to only 11 healthy players due to injury so they would have no subs. “By the finals it’s our fourth game in just over 24 hours and we’re tired and sore, and with no subs we knew we had to play with a lot of heart. Canmore always bring about 18 quality players and we knew they wanted revenge after last year,” Glanville said. The Lightning were able to withstand some early pressure from their Alberta counterparts before Glanville set up Monteleone for a pair of goals about 10 minutes apart late in the first half. Williams Lake would go on to earn a 2-0 victory and capture the cheque for top prize. It was the Lightning’s sparkling defensive work that was the key to victory, allowing only a single

goal in four games. Goalkeeper Mike Norris had three shutouts and the backline anchored by Sean Glanville, Luke Mojer, Craig Latin, and Kevin Ayres was solid all weekend. Midfielders Dale Latin, Geoff Buchanan, and Jay Voth won a number of vital battles all weekend, as well. This was the second tournament in a row the Lightning captured this summer. They were victorious May long weekend at the Penticton Invitational Tournament. They won the 11-team tournament by defeating the Pacific Coast Soccer League side and home team Penticton Pinnacles 1-0 in the final. They will look for a perfect sweep of all three tournaments this summer at their next showing, the Kamloops Invitational during the August long weekend.

The Williams Lake Lightning men’s soccer team were crowned champions for the fourth consecutive year at the 21st annual Revelstoke Big Bear Soccer Tournament this past weekend. The men’s side featured 13 teams from across B.C. and Alberta including sides from Banff, Canmore, Golden, Revelstoke, Kelowna, Vernon, Kamloops, Nelson, Nakusp, Invermere and Williams Lake. Revelstoke was dealt heavy rain the entire weekend which made for extremely wet conditions. The Lightning was also weary that all teams were gunning for the three-time defending champions and there would be no easy game this time around. “All the teams get up a little more for the game when they play us; they want to be the team that ends our run,” said striker

Total Ice hosts inaugural tourney This past June 9-10 Total Ice Training Centre kicked off its inaugural 3 on 3 hockey tournament. Six teams were involved in the fun-filled weekend with players travelling from as far away as Vanderhoof and Quesnel coming to participate. The games started Friday night with four local teams trying to earn their spot in Sunday’s playoffs. Saturday morning the tournament started back up and didn’t stop the evening. Nine fun-filled and

competitive games were played Saturday, followed by a skill and accuaracy competition in the afternoon. Rob Sandrock won the battle by hitting four targets in 10 seconds. After the games Saturday the teams had a great time with a social event that brought everyone together for some good times and laughs. Sunday, playoffs began. The first game saw Yahtzee, aka the Toe Dragons, take on Vanderhoof. The Toe Dragons came out on top and waited for

the winner of game two of the playoffs between The Stamps and The Longcuts (Quesnel). The Stamps edged out the Longcuts and earned their spot in the finals with the Toe Dragons. The finals came right down to the last buzzer with the Toe Dragons taking home the cup. All in all the tournament was a huge success and everyone went home happy. Total Ice said it would like to thank everyone that participated, and added all the players helped make the week-

Lakecity gets full-time pediatrician Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer After about five years without one Williams Lake has a new fulltime pediatrician. Monica McKay and her family moved to Williams Lake from Johannesburg, South Africa at the end of May. After getting settled she started seeing patients June 11. Her husband Douglas is a business analyst and they have a daughter, Ivy, who is eight-yearsold. Last year McKay says she and her family visited several places in Canada including Penticton and Nelson in B.C. and Newfoundland before deciding to accept the position in Williams Lake. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of our main aims was to go from city living to a small town,â&#x20AC;? McKay says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted out of the rat race and we like the outdoors and outdoor recreation.â&#x20AC;? She says the doctors and community here were also very wel-

She says McKay arrived in time for the CDC to incorporate some special requests into the design of her office and examination space. Gale says Williams Lake hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a full-time pediatrician since Dr. Jan Riegl retired about five years ago. Since then a pediatrician from Prince George has been visiting the community once a month and will continue to do so. Alison Rualt, administrator for acute care services with Interior Health, was part of the recruiting team which she says included representatives from the health care professions, education, and community leaders who came together to welcome McKay when she visited the lakecity to see about the job here. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty pleased she is here,â&#x20AC;? Rualt says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The community really came together to present itself well and the benefits of living in Williams Lake.â&#x20AC;?

September target for CDC expansion completion

Saturday, June 23

Gaeil Farrar Special to The Tribune

The Stampede Queen coronation takes place Saturday, June 23 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Gibraltar Room. Tickets are available at the Stampede office behind the grandstands.

By September the old storage building at the Cariboo Chilcotin Child Development Centre on Second Avenue will be replaced with a new 6,000 square-foot addition that will house a new storage area, as well as new clinic offices and meeting rooms. The addition will bring the CDC building to 20,000 square feet of space for children and the professionals who work with them. The CDC has operated continuously since 1975 providing assessment, treatment, education and assistance to vulnerable children and children with special needs and their families. The $60,000 renovation project is expected to be completed by September, and will allow the society to bring all of the services it provides back under one roof, says executive director Nancy Gale. For the past few years CDC programs have been split between the main CDC centre on Second Avenue and the Central Interior Community Services Co-operative building on Fourth Avenue. The co-operative is currently shared by the CDC, Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Contact Society, Boys and Girls Club of Williams Lake and District, the Williams Lake Association for Community Living, and

The expansion project will take place this summer. the Canadian Mental Health Association, Williams Lake branch. Gale says the renovations currently taking shape at the front of the building on Second Avenue include a new waiting room for parents and children, a new reception area and two more offices. The sprung floor gymnasium will stay but the old storage room beside it will be replaced with new storage space, plus meeting rooms and offices. She says the society has raised all but $50,000 of the funds needed to complete the $60,000 project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done really well,â&#x20AC;? Gale says.

She notes the city owns the property on which the CDC sits and the Cariboo Chilcotin Child Development Centre Society owns the building. She says the renovated and expanded CDC will provide a central location where professionals working with children can work and connect. Among the new offices, there will be one for the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new full-time pediatrician Dr. Monica McKay and one for visiting doctors. She says a pediatrician from Prince George will continue to visit the community once a month and Dr. Jeff Peimer from Cariboo

Memorial Hospital emergency department also visits the CDC to work with children and youth. Gale says the CDC also employs two physiotherapists, three occupational therapists and one speech language pathologist, who have offices and facilities at the CDC. The CDC also has a very active pre-school program for children ages three to five which is open to all children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have one of the longest running pre-school programs in the community,â&#x20AC;? Gale says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has been running continuously since 1975 and has lots of playground space.â&#x20AC;?

Tequila Mockingbird performance a hit

Brad Huston

Sage Birchwater Special to The Tribune The Tequila Mockingbird Orchestra performed at a house concert hosted by Martin Comtois at his place on Cameron Street Saturday, June 16.

Local musician Mark Lees responded to the need of a bass player Peter Mynett who broke the low “E” string of his stand-up bass, and loaned the group his Cort bass for the night. The band members

Stampede parade excitement builds on rock and roll theme idea Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer Does anyone have a 1956 Cadillac they would like to host a dignitary in for the Stampede Parade next week? Laker’s Car Club secretary Paul Christianson says the honorary parade marshal has requested to ride in a 1956 Cadillac, but if one can’t be found he will have the honour of escorting him in his own 1959 Cadillac. This year’s Stampede Parade theme is Rockin’ & Rollin’ in the Cariboo and in a fitting tribute to the theme, Morris Bates, the lakecity’s and the world’s first really great Elvis tribute artist, has accepted an invitation to become this year’s honorary parade marshal. Bates says he is looking forward to the visit back to his hometown with his partner Eileen Lafferty. He says he requested a 1956 Cadillac because a pink Cadillac was the first vehicle Elvis bought for his mother when he first made it big as a singer. But Bates says he will be happy to ride in any vehicle and is honoured to

And a $500 prize goes to the best theme entry so Gale is encouraging people to put on their blue suede shoes and get rockin’ & rollin’ and have some fun tonight — well any day or night — creating their parade entries. “It’s craziness but it’s always lots of fun,” Gale says. “It’s been a tough winter economically for people so we thought it was important to put on our blue suede shoes and have lots of fun.”

She says the parade costs about $10,000 to put on, $5,000 of which comes in the form of a grant from the city and $5,000 of which the Daybreak Rotary recoups through entry fees and sponsorships. She says the club started providing prizes for the top entries a couple of years ago. There are seven entry categories, equine, floats, bands, youth, automotive, mascots, and best theme, with several sub categories within each category, for instance best conventional, marching and community bands. Entry forms can be picked up at Papyrus printing 111 North Second Ave., or at the Williams Lake Visitor Information Centre at 1660 South Broadway and can also be downloaded at the website www.stampedeparade.com.

WEEKLY

MORTGAGE MESSAGE First Time Homebuyer? Buying your first home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make in your lifetime. It’s important that you’re prepared for this exciting and busy time in your life! Let these 5 professionals make your first home purchase go smoothly: 1) First things first, get a mortgage broker to do a pre-approval so you know what you can realistically afford to purchase and maintain. This is imperative to making a wise and affordable choice. 2) Choose a realtor to work with and stick with that realtor throughout the entire process. Your realtor will get to know what you want and will fine tune the list of homes they show you. 3) Once you’ve made an offer on a house, and the financing has been approved, get a home inspection from a professional House Inspector. You need to be aware of any potential problems with the house’s major structures. 4) Pick a lawyer or notary that is efficient and cost-conscious to do your mortgage completion. It’s just as important to shop around for the right lawyer or notary as it is to choose your mortgage broker, realtor and home inspector.

Working with these 5 professionals will make your first home purchase a dream!

“They call the Cariboo home” Melissa Newberry passes on her love for dance

Gaeil Farrar photos

Melissa Newberry adds the sparkle and shine before the performance.

Melissa Newberry leads her young dancers Lacey Schaafsma (left), Brianna Pope, Kassandra Kozak, Kiera Shewchuk, Ava Johnson, Anna Fait, and Niraporn Suapa in some dance runs around the stage as parents watch the recital. Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer Freshly sparkled and made up for the show, tiny dancers were given a small taste of what it is like to be a prima ballerina at their year-end performance last week. The little preschool dancers are among the many dance students in classes taught by Melissa Newberry through the city’s recreation services program. The little dancers meet in the Gibraltar Room’s theatrical change room which is just their size. Melissa and her family immigrated to Canada from South Africa in 1999 and moved to Williams Lake in 2001. She and her husband, Charles, the human resources manager at the Williams Lake and District Credit Union, have been married 30 years at the end of this year and have three children. Their son John, now 20, was

born in South Africa and just finished his second year in the biomedical bachelor of science program at the University of Northern B.C. Son William, 14, was also born in South Africa and is now in Grade 9 and plays violin. Son Peter, 9, was born in Canada and is in Grade 4, and loves skiing and mountain biking. In South Africa Melissa studied ballet at the Pretoria High School for Art, Ballet and Music then studied drama and psychology at Rhodes University. “I have always loved teaching children any of the performing arts,” Melissa says. “I started teaching classes when I was 18 years old and still enjoy it today. I have been teaching drama and dance in Williams Lake since 2005. She has taught hip-hop, jazz, African and ballet dance to all ages from three to 65. When she returns to the

classroom in January 2013 she will be adding a new class to her roster for a tween group aged eight to 12. “I think that ballet, and in fact all dance forms, are beneficial to everyone and will teach you balance, spatial awareness as well as musicality and rhythm,” Newberry says. This past January Melissa also accepted a position as community development associate for the Cariboo with the United Way. “I have enjoyed my position immensely and have found that it connects me to the community in a new way,” Melissa says. “We have such a generous community in Williams Lake. “Our community has so many things to offer too. I enjoy participating in all the outdoor activities with my family and we spend weekends mountain biking, fishing or camping in the summer. In the winter we all enjoy downhill and cross-country skiing.”
