WL Stampede starts today GREG SABATINO Tribune Staff Writer You definitely won’t want to miss anything at this weekend’s 86th annual Williams Lake Stampede. But in case you do, Fred Thomas, president of the Williams Lake Stampede Association, is bringing in a big-time treat for everyone attending the rodeo. “One of the biggest things I think that will make this year special is we’re going to have a large video screen setup on the grounds which will give us the capabilities of instant replay and those types of things,” Thomas says. “We’ll have a couple of cameras situated around the arena too so we’ll be filming all

the events, plus the mountain horse race and all the other good things. “Sight lines have always been an issue with the mountain race but being on the big video screen everyone should now be able to see it each day.” This year’s Stampede is also expected to have the largest participant pool. Thomas says there are currently 466 competitors registered. “That’s way above average,” he says. “Normally it’s somewhere in the neighbourhood of 375 to 400.” He adds not only will many of the top cowboys in Canada be vying for titles and prize money but, also, several of the top U.S. cowboys will be in town for the rodeo. “A lot of the American cowboys

— many of them have competed every year at the national finals in Las Vegas — so some of the best in the world will be here, for sure,” he says. In addition, cowboys and cowgirls will be vying for an exceptionally large purse — this year upwards of $150,000, Thomas says. “I just think our rodeo keeps getting a little better with the better competition we get each year,” he says. “The better competition you have the better rides and better scores, and all in all it makes it a bigger rodeo.” Quickly becoming a household name in Williams Lake, Alberta’s Tyson Pietsch will once again be back, for the fifth straight time, at

this year’s rodeo announcing and calling all the action. Anyone who attended any of last year’s rodeo performances will also be familiar with this year’s rodeo clown, Bert Davis. Davis, also known as the Coppertown Clown, has been working the rodeo business since 1974 — and returns to Williams Lake this year with his pack of zany dogs, who play a large part in his act. Rodeo performances, including elaborate opening ceremonies and grand entry each day, start Friday at 6 p.m. with “Wear Red to Support our Armed Forces,” then continue at 1 p.m. Saturday following the annual Stampede Parade (10 a.m. downtown).

Stampede concludes Monday Continued from Page 1 Sunday, the third rodeo performance goes at 1 p.m., before it all comes to a close following Monday’s “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” rodeo. Proceeds from the day go to benefit Diane Johnston (Sheer) and Kids Running for Kids. Additionally, local events such as the ranch challenge, wild horse race and mountain horse race take place each day. Live entertainment, including Appaloosa, Robert Rowan and Savage West, will also be performing throughout the weekend in the Let ‘R Buck Saloon and at the famous Williams Lake Stampede Barn Dance Saturday night. Thomas says the Williams Lake Stampede Association owes a big thanks to its multiple sponsors and volunteers in the community. “We’ve had such great support from the community,” he says. “It’s unreal. People think the economy is down, which obviously it is, but our sponsorship is as big or bigger than it’s been in the past 15 years.” For tickets to the ro-

deo and other Stampede events visit the Stampede office behind the grandstand or call 250-

Teachers vote Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. Teachers’ Federation executive is recommending acceptance of an agreement reached with school district negotiators that extends most of the terms of the contract that expired a year ago. Teachers are voting this week on the proposed settlement, which runs until June 30, 2013. The B.C. Public School Employers’ Association, representing B.C.’s 60 school districts, will hold a vote for trustees next week. The agreement puts off a bitter dispute over government changes to hiring, layoff and performance evaluation of teachers. Education Minister George Abbott said the deal includes a letter of understanding to continue talks on those issues. BCTF president Susan Lambert said the agreement includes some improvements to teacher benefits and leave provisions. But Wednesday Lambert announced the

union is making the latest of many trips to court to argue that imposing a two-year wage freeze violates their constitutional right to collective bargaining. The BCTF is the last major public sector union in the province to accept the wage limits. “We have been able to achieve some modest improvements but, above all, we succeeded in getting government take its concession demands off the table,” Lambert said. Abbott rejected the union’s claim that the employer was trying to cut back professional development provisions. The ministry wants to standardize provisions that were negotiated separately with the 60 districts before province-wide bargaining was imposed, he said. BCPSEA chair Melanie Joy said the tentative agreement standardizes provincial language for the number of leaves and establishes a process for determining local and provincial issues.

Carbon tax working, minister insists Tom Fletcher Black Press B.C.’s greenhouse gas emissions fell 4.5 per cent in the first four years of the carbon tax on fossil fuels, but most of that drop was probably the result of a world recession rather than the steadily increasing tax. Environment Minister Terry Lake released the latest emissions report Wednesday in Kelowna, insisting that B.C. is on track to meet its interim target of a six-per-cent reduction in greenhouse

gases this year. The latest federal government emission figures are for 2010, and in that year B.C. emissions crept up again after two years of decline. Lake said the global financial crisis of 200809 is likely responsible for a three per cent drop in emissions since the carbon tax took effect. The other 1.5 per cent came as B.C. residents chose to reduce their fossil fuel use, partly due to the tax and also because of the steep increase in gasoline prices. Lake

acknowledged that it will be “challenging” for B.C. to meet its target of a 33 per cent reduction in emissions by 2020, especially with new liquefied natural gas development expected to include gasfired electric power by that time. Options include carbon dioxide capture and storage from natural gas production, and the gas industry purchasing offsets to make up for extra emissions, he said. One sign that the carbon tax is working as intended is that people are twice as likely

Looking at most of the evidence, coffee is good for us. One study looked at 480,000 people to determine if coffee had any effect on the risk of stroke. Compared to non-coffee drinkers there was an 8% reduction in stroke in those who drank one cup a day and a 13% reduction in those who drank 2-6 cups daily.

People who are confined to bed or wheelchairs can develop pressure sores that can be very dangerous and hard to treat. A Canadian university has developed an undergarment to help prevent these ulcers. The garment uses electrical stimulation to keep the blood flowing in the ulcer-prone areas of the hips and rear end. It should become available to the public in the near future.

The results will be used in preparation for the budget in February. “We are beginning a comprehensive review that will cover all aspects of the carbon tax, including revenue neutrality, and will consider the impact on the competitiveness of B.C. businesses such as the agricultural sector, and in particular, B.C.’s food producers,” Falcon said.

The last scheduled increase in the carbon tax takes effect July 1, bringing the tax on a litre of gasoline from six to seven cents. Similar increases take effect on diesel fuel, natural gas, coal and other fuels, offset by business and personal income tax reductions to make it revenue neutral to the government as set out in the carbon tax legislation.

Dominion Day weekend! Well, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how it was called when I grew up. Now everyone calls it Canada Day weekend. No matter what we call it, the celebration is about the anniversary of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s federation into a dominion, a selfgoverning member of the British Commonwealth of Nations. In sense, it celebrates a growing up of a people, a graduation to the point of being able to effectively and properly govern themselves. Politically speaking, it is a great step for a country. Also politically speaking, it is a sore point for many First Nations who have been denied the right to self-government. In a way, it seems as if the upstart young brother considers the older brother, who practiced self-government for centuries, is unable to so now in our modern times. Maybe Canada really has not grown up after all. But this column is not intended to be a political forum and though I challenge each reader to consider the reality of our political situation, I do apologize if my comment has offended anyone. This column though, is about being open minded about our true situation. It is about challenging ourselves at a spiritual level to

PARSONS PEN

BY GERRIT APPERLOO determine whether we are trying, spiritually, to exercise dominion over our lives. Can people successfully govern themselves spiritually? Many people think so and practice a life of self-government. They are in charge; they determine their own fate, their own destiny. No one should dare tell them what is right or wrong, spiritually speaking. The Bible denies that this way of living is possible or even desirable. The Bible traces the history of humanity from beginning to end (yes, the Bible looks ahead to the future, your future, and my future) and shows clearly how impossible it is for a person to be successful at spiritual self-government. It is

a sad story of failure after failure. Spiritual self-government has only one predetermined outcome and believe me, it is not one we desire. The root of the problem is that people were never created to be self-governing in the spiritual sense. They were and are created to be under the rule of a King! Attempts at spiritual self-government are simply rebellion against this King. It always results in pain, in trouble, and eventually in eternal death. Politically as a nation, and personally as we live in society, control of our own environment and circumstances may be a desirable goal, one we should continue to cherish. Independence is great, but it is the last thing we should strive for spiritually. True happiness comes only when we become willing servants under the rule of the King of kings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; under Jesus Christ. Submission to him results, not in hardship and slavery, but in true spiritual freedom. And in joy and peace in our lives. Let us give up striving for spiritual control and enjoy serving a King who cares for us and looks after us. Then we can take joy in life, regardless of our circumstances.

News The secret garden

Williams Lake Weekend Friday, June 29, 2012

hough the majority of my life has been spent living out in the country, when the boys were just babies we briefly lived in town. As much as I treasure the solitude of country life there were aspects of city living that delighted me. I still remember cooking up a pot of chili for supper, realizing I didn’t have any peppers and the thrill of simply shutting off the stove, loading the boys into their tandem stroller and trundling off to the grocery store. I returned a few minutes later with my small purchase feeling almost giddy with the novelty of it all. In the country I only went grocery shopping once every 10 days or so. If I forgot an item or we ran out of something, we simply did without until the next “grocery day.” There was no thought of wasting an entire afternoon and all that fuel for the sake of a couple peppers. A convenience store isn’t convenient when it’s more than 20 miles away. The other thing I enjoyed was snooping in

neighbours’ yards. That makes me sound like a peeping Pam or something and, I suppose, that’s exactly what I was. But with one notable exception — it wasn’t the people I was trying to get a peek at; it was the plants. Even back then gardening fascinated me. Every afternoon during spring, summer and fall I would load the kids into their tandem stroller and we would cruise the neighbourhood looking for gardens. If we passed a house with evidence of flower beds in the front we would bump our way down the back alley so I could catch a glimpse of their backyard, which, I quickly learned, was where the real beauty was usually held. The only person I tried to spy on was a

little old lady who lived two blocks away and even that was garden related. Her house was completely surrounded by magnificent, mature, trees. Not knowing anything about trees at the time I could only tell they weren’t poplar or spruce. In the spring I would catch glimpses of her in green rubber boots, a house dress and a pair of pruners flitting between the branches. By early summer her yard was awash in fragrance and bloom. During July and August the leaves were so thick and dense you couldn’t even make out the house, but every once in a while I would spot a pair of green boots or a white head slowly bobbing along. Her backyard was fenced with tall planks that completely obscured any view, but it seemed to me there weren’t as many tree tops in the back as there were on the sides and front. That meant … a garden! A secret garden. If Mary Lennox had not been a fictional character and if she had

moved to Canada and if she had grown old, she could have been that neighbour. I imagined how one afternoon I would catch my “Mary” on the fringe of her property, how our eyes would meet and I would tell her how much I admired her trees. She would clasp my hands warmly in her own and ask if I would like to have tea in her back garden. We would become the best of friends and she would divulge all kinds of tips; both about life and gardening. And the secret garden? It would be spectacular. That fall I finally got my chance. I was wheeling the boys past her property and there she was raking leaves off the sidewalk! I slowed down, she looked up, our eyes met and I smiled. She smiled back. And I kept walking. I couldn’t believe it. I had finally got my chance and I had blown it. I circled the block, cursing my shy gene the entire way. Next time I would tell her how much I admired her trees. Next time I wouldn’t lose my nerve. There never was a

next time. Winter came and the following spring we moved. Last summer I was early for a meeting and thinking to kill some time I drove down our old street past my Mary’s place. I felt as if I had been sucker punched. There stood her house like a wild, startled thing in the blinding sun. The trees, the shrubs, the fence — all of it had been razed to the ground. If there ever had been a secret garden in the back there was no evidence of it now. Maybe the roots were getting into the plumbing. Maybe the new owners simply wanted to let in some sun. Maybe some things are better left to memories and imagination. Shannon McKinnon is a humour columnist from Northern BC.

Trendy new super foods Rose Soneff Interior Health Super food is a term used to promote certain foods as having additional health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Have you ever wondered if these super foods can really make a big difference in your diet and your health? Let’s take a look at three of these super foods and the hype surrounding them. Quinoa (pronounced “keen-wah”): Quinoa has become increasingly popular with the attention surrounding ancient grains. It is a good source of fibre, protein, and minerals and is a popular gluten-free choice that can be included in salads, entrées, and even desserts. Quinoa has a nutty flavour, with a fluffy yet crunchy texture. It comes in a variety of colours including yellow, red, pink, and black. It takes only 15 minutes to cook in boiling water and is a great alternative to other grains like rice and pasta. Goji Berries (aka Wolfberries): Goji ber-

ries are small red fruits that are a common ingredient in traditional Chinese cuisine. They are mildly sweet and sour, and can be incorporated into a variety of dishes, including soups, stews, or desserts. They are usually sold as juice or dried. Goji juice is ready for consumption but dried goji berries need to be cooked. Goji berries are a source of a variety of minerals and vitamin C; however, the vitamin C content varies amongst the dried berry products. There are several health claims associated with this berry including lowered blood cholesterol levels and anti-aging benefits; however, more research is needed to support these claims. Goji berries are a source of several nutrients but they should not replace other foods in your diet. Chia Seeds: Chia seeds, grown and harvested in South America and Mexico, have been touted as a popular super food. Some research shows that chia seeds have the potential to support heart

and digestive health, thanks to their high fat (as omega-3 fatty acid) and fibre content. Chia seeds have a mild, almost non-existent flavour, and contain no cholesterol. They are gluten free and low in saturated fats. Chia seeds are recommended as a protein choice for vegetarians and vegans, as they contain all the amino acids we need to consume. Chia seeds can be purchased as ground whole chia seeds, chia flour, and chia oil. Chia flour can be used as a gluten-free alternative in place of all-purpose flour in baking recipes. Thus, chia seeds can be a great food choice but should be treated as an addition to your diet and not an agent of disease prevention. There is no one food item that can provide all the energy and nutrients your body needs. These super foods may be beneficial in many ways but they should not be a replacement for a well-balanced diet. Give these foods a try by adding them to your favourite dishes for some extra nutrition

and variety.  Rose Soneff is a community nutritionist with Interior Health.

‘Poverty’ declines, nobody notices Y

ou probably didn’t hear this on TV — the percentage of Canadians deemed “low income” went down slightly in 2010, according to the latest Statistics Canada analysis. This news was delivered in the annual “Income of Canadians” report last week. The share of people who fall below the federal Low-Income Cut-Off (LICO) went from 9.5 per cent to 9.0. The CBC couldn’t bring itself to admit any actual improvement, reporting on its website that the number of people with “low income” was about three million, “virtually unchanged from 2009.” Other media outlets followed the unwritten rule that nothing remotely positive must be presented as news, particularly if it reflects positively on a rightwing government. (Plus they had the Montreal body parts case to update each day). This information likely won’t have any effect on the political discussion about “poverty” in B.C. The LICO survey will continue to be used as a measure of absolute poverty, despite the fact that it isn’t. It’s a relative measure that will always designate the same share of people at the low end of the scale. BC Stats, the provincial equivalent of the federal agency, explained this problem in a special report last year. “To illustrate,” the report

B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER

said, “take a hypothetical future Canada where every citizen earns no less than $100,000 (and assume there has not been rampant inflation in the meantime, such that buying power is not dissimilar to what exists today) and millionaires are common. “In that kind of Canada, those at the low end of the income scale (that is, those earning ‘merely’ $100,000) would be considered poor if LICOs were used as a measure of poverty.” Math aside, that’s the alleged “poverty line” routinely cited by the usual media authorities, like B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair. Sinclair campaigned for years to get the B.C. government to raise the minimum wage from $8 to $10 an hour. They did, in three increments, and on May 1 it increased to $10.25 an hour. As soon as the series of three increases was announced last November, Sinclair

called a news conference to announce it’s not enough. To get to the LICO level, the minimum wage should be $11.50 an hour, Sinclair said. Of course, if B.C. businesses ponied up for that, the goalposts would shift again and the same proportion of “poverty” would magically still exist. The B.C. NDP government-in-waiting continues to demand an “action plan” on poverty, with annual goals. All the progressive provinc-

es have one, which I guess is why poverty is all but eradicated in enlightened places like Manitoba. There are signs of the reality behind this political smokescreen. Here’s one. For what may be the first time in history, we now have a North American society where one of the most reliable indicators of poverty is obesity. This often gets explained away with a popular theory that poor people are somehow forced to eat fast

food and drink pop because they can’t afford healthy food. People who advance this theory presumably don’t do much grocery shopping. There are plenty of processed, sugary, fat-laden choices at the supermarket too. But there is also whole wheat bread, rice and fresh or frozen vegetables that are as cheap as anywhere in the world. Given basic cooking skills and some effort, it’s easy to

demonstrate which diet is cheaper as well as healthier. Most immigrants know this. Which diet you choose isn’t a function of money, but rather one of education and self-discipline. There is genuine poverty in our society. One of the things that’s needed is a useful way to define it.

Where to go,

what to do.

100-plus entries for parade Entries for the Daybreak Rotary’s Stampede Parade Saturday broke the 100 mark Thursday and more entries are always expected right up until the parade day. Eric Zwiers, one of the co-parade marshals responsible for logistics, says people seem to be having a lot of fun with the Rock ‘n Roll theme this year and there are lots of Elvis entries going for the $250 prize for the best Elvis impersonator. The best Rock n’ Roll theme entry wins $500. The lakecity’s original and most famous international Elvis tribute artist Morris Bates — who enjoyed international performances as Elvis and a 10-year career as the world’s top Elvis tribute artist in Las Vegas, before retiring and becoming a youth and corrections counsellor — is looking forward to riding in the parade as the honorary parade marshal with his partner Eileen Lafferty. Bates 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 he is just as happy to be riding in Laker’s Car Club secretary Paul Christianson’s 1959 Cadillac. “To have them do this is just great,” Bates says of his invitation to be the honorary parade mar-

shal. Zwiers says there are lots of equine entries, floats, and visiting entries from Houston, Armstrong and other locations. Earlier co-parade marshal Nancy Gale said there were also entries from Vernon, Quesnel and 100 Mile House and lots of local musical entries, of vintage vehicles. “We have a number of new entries so we are quite excited,” Gale says. Laker’s Car Club president Wayne Potter is scheduled to escort Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett in his 1928 Model A Ford. For the past eight years the Stampede Parade has been organized by the Daybreak Rotary Club.

“No one is turned away,” Gale says. “We usually get 20 or so entries on parade day.” On parade day Saturday, Zwiers advises spectators to come early and park in the Williams Lake Secondary School parking lot or access one of the parking lots south of Oliver Street via Mackenzie Avenue. Parade entries also access the marshaling area via Mackenzie Avenue and check in at Comer Street and Second Avenue. Equine entries gather at the Cariboo Memorial Complex. Registration starts at 7 a.m. and judging starts at 8 a.m. The parade starts at 10 a.m. following the tried and true route on Fourth

Avenue starting at Proctor Street; left on Borland Street; right at Eighth Avenue onto Oliver Street; then proceeding the length of Oliver Street; then turning right on First Avenue to the disbursal point. The Museum of the Cariboo Chilcotin will have a Cowboy Coffee concession with coffee, water, and soft drinks available in front of the museum during the Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade Saturday. Money raised helps with the museum upkeep and operating expenses. Wayne Lucier will also be back at the museum

on parade day singing and playing in front of the museum while people wait for the parade to start. Gale 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.

Canada Day fun Sunday Canada Day celebrations in Boitanio Park this year will be filled with family fun in the afternoon and rock and roll in the evening, says event spokesperson Beth Holden. The celebrations kick off at 2 p.m. with a blessing from T’exelc Williams Lake Indian Band and a welcome by city and CRD representatives. It will be a day of music, dance, magic and fun. Daytime musical performances include Signal Point Drummers, Quintet Plus, the Williams Lake Community Band and the Sugar Cane Hand Drummers. While people enjoy these performances the Magical Jesaja will wander through the crowd dazzling all with his magical moves and the talented Al-Lisa will paint the faces of young and old alike. “We are also happy to welcome the Little Chiefs Elementary School, which offers information about their school, stickers and pens, and a taste of homemade bannock and jam while local nurses will be testing

blood pressure and handing out water. The Grade 9-10 art students from Williams Lake Secondary School will be helping children create a collaborative painting that celebrates Canada Day in the Cariboo and, of course, we will have the traditional giant Canada Day Cake being served by Mayor Kerry Cook, members of the CRD and board members of the CCACS and Stampede Royalty. From 5 to 6 p.m. the sweet voices of Angel Keys Children’s Choir will fill the air. Then pull out your dancing shoes and get ready to rock and roll with Williams Lake’s own Rossetta Paxton, Randy Pokeda, Pat Myre and Mark Lees in their band called Hwy 97. Their original tunes include influences from traditional bluegrass, classic country, old time fiddle and classic rock. “This four-person band has talent, rhythm and energy to spare, Holden says. “It is an evening not to be missed.” Paxton recently performed at the Seniors’ Village luncheon and

wagon rides event. Holden says Canada Day is presented by the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture So-

ciety, City of Williams Lake and the Cariboo Regional District, with help from a number of community sponsors.

ranchers study modern grazing methods World re-knowned grazing expert Jim Gerrish (right) smiles as he illustrates a point in response to a question at session one of the recent four-day series of Rancher’s Field Days held June 18 to 21 on various Cariboo cattle ranches. This first seminar was held at the San Jose Cattle Company (150 Mile House) with Karen (left) and Clint Thompson (third left) graciously hosting about 35-40 ranchers and government personnel on their ranch. Also looking on and listening with interest is Hugh Bayliff (second left) who, along with his wife Helen (not pictured here) were to host the final series field day on June 21 at their home place, the Chilancoh Ranch, located 32 miles west of Alexis Creek. Overall attendance was good at the four field days. Gerrish’s visit was sponsored by the Cariboo Cattlemen’s Association and several other generous sponsors. Liz Twan photo

22 Simon Says Shape Shifting

• Read the “Can You” poem together and in-vite your child to copy the movements of the animals, adding the sounds each animal makes. Think of different animals together, move as they do. • Use some of these movements and sounds in a game of Simon Says. Move only when the leader beings by saying 29 stay still. For example, if you 30 “Simon Says” - otherwise say “Simon says be a bear,” your child should move like a bear. IF you say “Be a bear,” your child shouldn’t move a muscle.

Performances in the Park program set This year’s line up for Performances in the Park summer concert series rocks, say organizers. Local and provincial performers will light up the stage in Boitanio Park each Thursday evening from July 5 to Aug.16. From 5 to 6 p.m. performers will cater to children and youth, and from 7 to 8 p.m. acts, oriented toward adults, will be family friendly. The line up includes rock and roll, jazz, bluegrass, dancers, theatre and more. Youth acts are diverse in genre and capture the attention of young and old alike. Local teenager, Robyn Ferguson, will kick off the series at 5 p.m. on July 5 with her renditions of country and soft rock. Later at 7 p.m., Doug Koyama will take the stage and captivate the audience with songs of life, love, peace and truth, yet by listening to his lyrics one would never know. He uses looping, a cappella and improv to create music to the ears. The series unfolds to reveal some of the musical talents of Williams Lake, the surrounding villages and countryside, and the province of B.C. Acts include Horsefly duo Carmen and Dena who, on July 26, will mesh their voices into beautiful harmonies while singing of love loss, self discovery and friendship. On Aug. 9, the members of Big Twang Daddy will gather together from the Cariboo landscape to create folk and rock that will get your toes tapping and your body moving. On July 19, another Horsefly favourite, Pharis and Jason Romero, share their passion and adeptness for roots, folk, early country and old time music with beautiful harmonies. Local bluesy jazz sensation, My Wife’s Quartet, takes the stage July 12 following a performance by an incred-

ible Chilcotin youth, the Magical Jesaja. He has already taken the Quesnel Farmers Market by storm and will perform at Arts Wells on the August long weekend as a part of Potato Dreams. A version of this play, Potato Dreams, will take the stage at 5 p.m. on Aug. 2, featuring Likely Gold, a dramatic group of youths directed by Venta Rutkauskas. These young actors will open for the always entertaining, dance inspiring Maria in the Shower. This Eastside Vancouver foursome shifts with ease from uptempo swing to sensitive

folk ballad, or energetic samba to subtle waltz. Prepare to dance up a sweat while taking in their captivating performance. Mill Girl Follies, a collective of Can Can dancers from throughout the province, but mostly from Clinton, will take you back in time at 5 p.m. on July 26. Energetic and talented, they will make you want to join their troop. Other youth oriented openers include the local Uke Tuba Trio whose fun music is entertaining and reining from Hope. On Aug. 9, the Ta Daa Lady brings her mes-

merizing charms. Tap dancing, puppetry and singing are just aspects of her presentation. To keep everyone on their toes, the Aug. 16 concert format, the series finale, is a little bit different. Big Lake youth Sam Tudor mingles his musical talents with the likes of Marin Patenaude and Drum & Bell Tower in two sets of great music starting at 5 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. Performances in the Park is presented by the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society, the City of Williams Lake and the Cariboo Regional District.

Horsefly hosts Arts on the Fly Five Alarm Funk, Fish and Bird, Linda McRae and many more artists will be performing at the Arts on the Fly music and dance festival in Horsefly July 13-14. “Horsefly, B.C.’s incredibly popular summertime festival, Arts on the Fly, is going full steam ahead with its seventh annual festival,” says musician Pharis Romero. This year she says the festival will be on Friday, July 13 and Saturday, July 14 with a full schedule on the Friday evening. Growing from a single day festival in 2006, she says the festival now attracts audiences from across western Canada and beyond, with acts from around the world brought to this small, beautiful town. Friday night opens at 6:30 p.m. with a special opening ceremony featuring local elders, cowboy poetry and special programming. It continues with a full night of entertainment with local favourites Jesse LeBourdais and Drum & Bell Tower, all-girl roots-rock act Jungal, the Vancouver-based LunaSea Circus Troupe, roots/folk award-winners Fish and Bird, and local rockers Big Twang Daddy. Saturday opens at 11 a.m. with local bluegrass-folk ensemble Jenny’s Jam, then youth band Calling April, the high school duet of Sam and Rowan, the intricate sounds of the harp-cello duo Crossbow, local singer-songwriter Colin

Easthope, and Horseflybased lady of folk and blues Marin Patenaude. The evening show continues with former Spirit of the West member and country crooner Linda McRae, the eclectic jazz-roots of Danielle Savage, outlaw country singer Joey Only, and the classic western sounds of the Little Horsefly Country Band. “The last two acts of the evening will keep the crowd up and dancing; Tim Readman and the Eire Born Irish Dancers were a huge hit at last year’s festival, and this year we are proud to present the 10-piece funk powerhouse of Vancouver’s Five Alarm Funk,” Romero says. Both days will showcase “tweener” acts primarily by local and regional youth. Satur-

day will also feature an all-acoustic stage with performances by Pharis & Jason Romero, Fish and Bird, Doug Koyama, Crossbow, Christian Hoelderl, and Troy Forcier. Festival goers can take part in workshops — laughter yoga, vocal improvisation, and Irish dancing, wander through the vendors market, enjoy a delicious meal by chef Martin Comtois, or bring the young ones to Saturday’s Kids’ Zone.

Our Kids’ Zone this year will run most of the day Saturday, with workshops where kids can make a ukulele with local expert lutheiers, or a didgeridoo to take home, among many other ongoing arts and crafts. Advance tickets are available online at www.artsonthefly.com, in Horsefly at Clarke’s General Store, or in Williams Lake at the Bean Counter and the Gecko Tree.

Kelly Matthew Krizmanich August 30,1987June 25, 2009 Every memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose. All his memories are treasures that remind us of him everyday. Kelly’s passing was one of those unexpected things and everyone that knew him did not think we would be going on 3 years without him. Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I’ll miss you until we meet again. R.I.P. Love your family.
