Need for low-cost housing on the rise

COMMUNITY A15 Maranatha Players on stage.

Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer

Weather outlook: Expect snow and rain on the weekend.

City councillor Ivan Bonnell said he was a “little bit surprised” to see how high the need is for emergency shelter, youth-at-risk, and low-income housing revealed in a new housing study prepared for the city of Williams Lake by City Spaces Consulting. “I was a little bit surprised in terms of the numbers and the need. I didn’t think they were quite as high as the study projected,” Bonnell said, adding the other thing the study showed was “how little” has been done on the housing issues during the last decade. The city released the study on its website last week and Bonnell hopes it will receive broad circulation with groups that are involved with housing. “Maybe we can start to build some partnerships and flesh some

of the initiatives out and bring them into tangibles and see some new housing projects to fruition,” he said. Since being elected in Nov. 2011, Bonnell has participated on the Cariboo Lodge task force and said there is more work to do to finalize some questions about the current state of the facility. “We have to determine if the best approach is to move with renovations or demolition and talk about building something brand new, and what the site would be used for in the future. Those are policies issues that will have to come to council.” Anne Burrill, manager of social development for the city, described the study as a useful document for the whole community. “I think there is information in there beyond housing with lots of really useful demographics the whole community can use. Cer-

tainly anyone who is involved in housing development, whether it’s affordable housing or market housing, will find it interesting,” Burrill said. She wasn’t surprised by the data in the report because she has done work on the issue in the past. “The main reason for doing the study was to make sure we had a solid piece of research from an objective, third party consultant that could look at what’s going on in our community and give us a real clear snapshot.” A comprehensive housing study was prepared in 1996 for the Williams Lake Housing Committee at the time through the Social Planning Council, that was updated in 2009. “It presented a long term look at housing needs in the community,” Burrill said. “This new study is a bit more comprehensive.” The study is finalized and is now

being shared with the community. “It will facilitate the work of the Cariboo Lodge task force and the city will be looking at the recommendations in the study and using it to form our plans in the future supporting affordable housing.” One of the things Burrill thinks is helpful about the study is often there are varying opinions about what the housing needs are in Williams Lake, and the study gives a good picture. “We have gaps. Housing here isn’t as expensive as it is in larger urban centres, but we still have a number of issues. We have affordable issues. We have quality issues in our rental housing stock,” she said, adding most of the rental housing is “quite” old. The full report is available on the city’s website http://www.williamslake.ca/files/1/doc_FinalReport_HousingNeeds_WL%20 2012.pdf.

This is the message that the Rotary Club is extending to the community during the up-coming Operation Red Nose campaign which will be operational each Friday and Saturday evening from Nov. 30 to Dec. 31. In Canada, this year, an impressive 90-plus host organizations will provide the Operation Red Nose service. Teams of three volunteers will travel our communities’ roads and highways again this year in order to provide a sim-

ple and accessible way for their fellow citizens to arrive home safely. Everyone is invited to volunteer and come and experience the joy of serving their community. In addition to making roads safer for everyone during the holiday season, Operation Red Nose volunteers allow our community to raise funds which directly support youth organizations and amateur sports in Williams Lake. KidSport, Williams Lake Gymnastics, Williams Lake Skating Club and Blue Fins will be the recipients of the fundraising efforts this year. The easiest way to vol-

Valuable guitars taken in break and entry on Third Avenue A hit and run and three notable break-ins occurred between Nov. 23 and Nov. 26 in Williams Lake, said the RCMP in a press release this morning (Nov. 28). Nov. 26 At 5:54 a.m. RCMP responded to a report of a hit and run motor vehicle incident in the vicinity of Bagshaw Road and Highway 20. A truck was rear ended by another vehicle as it merged onto the high-

way from Bagshaw Road. The driver of the vehicle that struck the merging vehicle fled from the scene. There was extensive damage to the front of the vehicle that rear ended the truck and both airbags were deployed. No serious injuries were reported. The driver of the vehicle that rear ended the truck was eventually located and charged under the motor vehicle act.

At approximately 8:17 a.m. RCMP received a complaint of a break and enter at Columneetza Secondary School from school authorities. It was reported that the breakin occurred sometime over Friday, Nov. 23 and was discovered on Saturday morning around 11 a.m. The door to one of the portable classrooms had been pried open and a white NEC projector had been

stolen.

Nov. 27 At approximately 8:30 a.m. police responded to a break and enter at a residence located in the 2000 block of Third Avenue North. Thieves broke into the residence and stole items worth $3,000. Police responded at 8:21 a.m. to a report of a break and enter to a residence on Third Avenue North. The investigation revealed that a witness

saw two males break into the victim’s house. Police spoke with a witness who said that at 11:20 p.m. the night before, Nov. 26, they heard a bang. While looking out the window they noticed two males: one described as thin, 5-feet 6-inches to five-feet seven-inches tall and wearing a black hoodie decorated with skulls ,and jeans; the other is described as shorter,

wearing a heather-grey coloured hoodie. The witness said one of the males walked out of the residence with a guitar and then both males stood in the front yard and went back into the residence. Taken during the break-in were one electric Cort Guitar, red with a white pick guard, worth $450, an electric SG homemade guitar that is red and black valued at $300, an acoustic Taka-

mine guitar with a cut away and a pre amp tuner, colour antique brown worth $1,500, a Toshiba Laptop worth $600, an HP Notebook valued at $150, a Playstation 3 valued at $350 and a Nintendo Wii valued at $150.

Regimental RCMP funeral a comfort to father Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The father of RCMP Const. Adrian Oliver, the 28-year-old Surrey man that was killed after his unmarked car was struck by a transport truck Nov. 23, said his son’s regimental funeral held in Langley Nov. 20 was a great comfort. “I was warned by my RCMP liaison that it was going to be overwhelming, but actually I found that it felt that all arms were around me,” Erwin Gebhard, 55, said from his home in Williams Lake. “It was actually quite comforting.” A truck driver and heavy equipment operator at Gibraltar Mine for the past two years, Gebhard hasn’t returned to work yet, and said through the tragedy his co-workers

Historical records now available online Images of the original historical records of births, marriages and deaths in B.C. are now more available thanks to a partnership between the BC Archives and the Vital Statistics Agency, as well as an in-kind donation by FamilySearch International. So far 700,000 original records have been scanned, indexed and are now available for printing – free of charge – through the Royal BC Museum/ BC Archives website. Since 1997 the Vital Statistics Agency has provided BC Archives with annually updated indexes to publicly releasable vital event information. The BC Archives is allowed to release personal information about deaths that occurred at least 20 years

ago, marriages that took place at least 75 years ago, and births registered at least 120 years ago. In the past, the photographed images of actual documents were only available on microfilm at the BC Archives reading room, at a FamilySearch International centre or through a number of libraries across the province. “This free access to digital images of historical vital event records is long overdue,” said Kathryn Bridge, manager of Centralized Access, Royal BC Museum.

were touched by Adrian’s heart,” Gebhard said, adding he will miss Adrian very much. “I will always cherish the fond memories, especially over the summers we spent together. He was an amazing person that touched a lot of hearts all over the world.” Adrian and his twin brother Ben, also an RCMP member, were born at the Grace Hospital in Vancouver because they were premature and

Kate, their mom, had been medi-vaced from Williams Lake when she went into labour. At the age of five the twins moved away from Williams Lake to Ottawa with their mom, after the couple split up, but throughout their lives Gebhard spent time with his sons. He’d last seen his son two months ago at their grandmother’s home in Merritt, where Gebhard was raised.

In a photograph, Gebhard is surrounded by the twins. “My friends and I were celebrating my 50th birthday in Las Vegas and the boys showed up and surprised me,” he explained. Adrian joined the RCMP in 2008 and was assigned to the Surrey detachment 2009. His brother, Ben, and his stepfather Joe Oliver are also RCMP members. “My heart pours out to the entire Oliver family and Adrian’s fiancé Shelagh Mitchell during this tragic and unbelievable loss. I’m thankful to the RCMP and all of the individuals who have gone above and beyond in this time,” Gebhard said. “What an amazing organization. They had liaisons helping me. I cannot say enough.” Gebhard has a daughter, Angelina, living in Williams Lake who accompanied him to the funeral. “She’s been with me since the beginning of all this and been great. I wouldn’t have been able to go through it without her,” he said of Angelina.

Lie to me

Think local when buying gifts

he Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce is a vital part of the business community and of Williams Lake as a whole, and today marks the installation of the new officers. I always appreciate the chance to speak to the chamber and its members. I will be talking about the year that’s almost done, and I will share s o m e of the From the positives Mayor’s we’ve Chair seen in Kerry Cook 2012: W e s t Fraser’s announcement that they will build a new planer mill, the continued development of the Platform Properties site, and the re-investment we’ve seen from local car dealerships and other businesses. There have been (and still are) some challenges, such as the recent announcement of the closure of Tolko’s Creekside mill. We still have a lot of work to do. Congratulations to local free rider James Doerfling, who is featured in the film Where the Trail Ends riding on the Fraser River and in the Gobi Desert. The film will be screened Thursday evening at Paradise Cinemas at 7 p.m. The pictures and video of James’s riding are incredible. We’ve very proud to have such a talented rider representing Williams Lake and all of the mountain biking opportunities here. Way to go James! Christmas shopping season is upon us already, and I’d like to urge residents to think local when buying gifts. We have a wide variety of excellent local stores with plenty of great things for under the tree. Please support these local businesses, who are not only critical to our economy, but who generously support our sports teams and community organizations all year round as well. When we can come together and support each other we all benefit! Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.

Our Viewpoint

Let’s support those who help Many of us are looking at our Christmas shopping lists, as we try to decide what we’re going to give loved ones on that special day. Once we have the list written out, we usually go over it to make sure we’ve covered everyone and have an idea of what we’re going to get him or her. In that way, we’re just like the jolly old elf — we’re making a list and checking it twice. Unlike Santa, however, we don’t have elves to make everything on our lists. Certainly, some of us are capable of crafting gifts, but the vast majority of us are either strapped for time or short on talent. We are left with the choice of going shopping. There is another vitally important choice we make: Where do we make our purchases? We urge everyone to think long and hard before they make that decision. We encourage everyone to shop locally as much as possible. In these difficult times, we believe area residents should be supporting the merchants who are keeping their doors open, so we can have goods and services year round — so we don’t have to travel long distances to get things we really need.

We need to consider how much support the local business owners give to this community — not only within the district boundaries but also throughout the Cariboo. These folks are the ones who support every team that comes through their doors with request for sponsorship — most of them are youth teams, but not exclusively. And when they’re not coaching or helping out on an executive board, these local businesspersons are donating prizes for raffles, draws or other types of fundraisers. These people also sit as volunteers on various community boards or one of the service groups that help make the quality of life better for all of us who live here and in nearby communities. So, do they deserve our support? Absolutely. For many merchants, the yuletide holiday shopping season is a make-it or break-it proposition. We encourage everyone to support those who support us every day of the year during this Christmas shopping season. It would be a good way to quietly thank our merchants who quietly support our loved ones in so many ways. - 100 Mile Free Press

t’s bad enough that the BC Liberals continue to use taxpayer money to feed us propaganda about the state of B.C.’s economy, our job growth relative to other provinces, and the supposed benefits of natural gas to BC’s bottom line. They’re now going to further insult our intelligence by delivering a “balanced” budget for 2013 in advance of the May election. The Feb. 19 budget will be subjected to minimal scrutiny and will not be passed into law before the May election. The governing party can say whatever they MLA w a n t Musings about Bob Simpson h o w they’ll balance the budget because they won’t be held accountable to that budget — whether they win the election or not. The pre-election budget will be the ‘big lie’ that best fits the government’s political propaganda needs. In this case, the Liberals are still trying to claw back the conservative vote, so they hope to appeal to the fiscal prudence of these particular voters with a “balanced” budget. Recall that during the last election we saw a budget with a projected deficit of under half a billion dollars, no new taxes, and the promise that B.C. would weather the 2008 financial collapse. After the election, the deficit was over two billion dollars, the Liberals introduced the HST, and we’ve deficit financed ever since! As long as the fixed election date is in mid-May, regardless of who’s in power we’ll get a propaganda budget every four years. The failure to protect the budget from crass political manipulation every four years dramatically undermines our ability to govern ourselves over the long term in any meaningful way. This practice must stop. We must change the fixed election date to the fall and ensure that the election year budget is real, debated, and passed into law, so that all political parties have to work from the same, scrutinized set of numbers when they make their election promises. Bob Simpson is the Independent MLA for Cariboo North.

Resident raises safety concerns about South Lakeside intersection Editor: The traffic flow from South Lakeside to Highway 20 before the fire hall was built, and changes to the road were made, was already at a maximum for safety. This is before the traffic light and road changes at the South Lakeside intersection. It worked like a fourway stop before the traffic light was installed. From the light on South Lakeside Drive for the next 10th of a kilometre there are eight possible left-hand turns into businesses — only one has a left-turn signal. All B-Trains, chip trucks, highboys and flat deck trucks must stop on the roadway to wait for traffic to clear to make a left-hand turn, piling up traffic behind them. The more traffic into the WalMart site will mean a longer wait time to turn left. Unworkable. Trucks delivering steel to Beamac must stop traffic in both directions to allow the truck to enter and leave. Traffic coming off of Highway 20 from out west to Canadian Tire or the Real Canadian Wholesale Club must cross three lanes of traffic, cutting everyone off from right to left. From town, fuel tankers, highboys, low-boys, etc., also cut off all traffic on three lanes from right to left going into the Real Canadian

Wholesale Club or Canadian Tire. When snow covers all the painted lines because there is no proper alignment of road lanes this is a major traffic accident waiting to happen. South Lakeside Drive was never designed to handle traffic from Pioneer development. All traffic in and out of the WalMart site was designed to go in and out at the four-way stop, and the curb and gutter is already in place to exit in and out below Pioneer office complex. Building a road where it was originally designed to go into WalMart and exit Wal-Mart site would give two ways into and out of South Lakeside Drive — a major safety factor. As well it would remove all traffic from South Lakeside Drive back to its original flow before Wal-Mart site opened. Not to mention when Pioneer site is fully developed there will be three times more commercial traffic, plus 250 to 350 residential properties. Plus, there is more undeveloped land, all inside city limits. There is no way you can move that much more traffic through South Lakeside Drive, no matter how much money you spend, aside from a road out of Wal-Mart to Highway 20. If in the future an upgrade was needed to South Lakeside Drive,

traffic could be detoured to allow a more efficient construction at less cost. I met with Coun. Surinderpal Rathor and Coun. Ivan Bonnell several times this summer to discuss and observe obvious problems at the intersection lights — observing and discussing traffic flow and safety issues in the event of an accident. I also met with Mayor Kerry Cook at city hall several times — also Geoff Goodall (planning and operations manager). Mr. Goodall said he had no intention to even consider the original plan out of the Wal-Mart site. All the changes and the money already spent on South Lakeside Drive has not made the road safer or faster. Money would have been better spent on the exit in the original design. Also, the city has a new plan to spend more money on a road that cannot possibly handle more traffic than is using the road each day now. I do not believe I am the only person using Highway 20 and South Lakeside Drive that is unhappy with this intersection. If anyone else is unhappy with this intersection they should phone, fax or e-mail city hall at 250-3922311 to let them know. If you have any question or comments please call me at 250-302-7967.

Mountain pine beetle winter survival subject of new study Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The mountain pine beetle’s ability to survive extreme cold is the subject of a new study from the University of Northern British Columbia. “Mountain beetle overwinter as larvae mainly and they can withstand some pretty cold temperatures, some figure down to about minus 40 Celsius. It is amazing they can survive that underneath the bark of a tree,” said UNBC Ecosystem Science and Management Professor Dezene Huber, the principal investigator in the study.

Huber said a popular misconception about the pine beetle is that northern winters are no longer cold enough to kill the insect. “While the overall depth of winter cold is important, the timing of deep cold snaps — how early or late the cold happens — is more important.” The study examined what proteins are present in mountain pine beetle larvae in early and late autumn, compared to early spring and late spring, to see if the protein present related to genes being turned off or on. If a gene gets turned on, then that protein related to that

gene gets made in the insect’s body. Proteins will, depending which proteins there are, do things such as help to produce certain antifreeze compounds, like glycerol, or may help the insect to cope with physiological stress that it’s experiencing as it goes into the cold. Or in the spring, it may take some of those compounds it has made and reconvert them into energy so the larvae can complete its development into an adult. “What we did is take the first look at everything that’s going on inside of mountain pine beetle as it heads into winter and as it leaves

winter. Now we have a really good 30,000-foot view of all sorts of different things that are happening in the complex physiology of this insect and it gives us in our lab a lot of interesting questions to chase down,” Huber explained. In the larger scheme of things the lab also works quite closely with people who that are modelling the expansion of the outbreak into Alberta that can use information related to insect physiology to try and determine where the mountain pine beetle is going to spread next, specifically over the Rocky Mountains and into the jack pine

forests of Alberta. “Or how climate change may allow it to spread further or into areas that it’s never gone into before,” Huber explained. MABE_NOV15-JAN3_EASEL_EN_ADMAT.ai

Williams Lake is seeing desired trends in air quality, says the Ministry of Environment. Speaking to city council Nov. 20, air quality meteorologist Arvind Saraswat said fine particulate matter PM2.5 and coarse particulate matter PM10 are the main areas of concern in the city and that there has been a clear decline in the levels of both. “The PM 2.5 levels measured at Columneetza and the Cariboo Regional District library sites show they have been within our objective and both sites show a slight decreasing trend. That’s great news. The trends are not huge in magnitude, but in the right direction.” Saraswat said although the number of PM10 exceeding incidents are higher at the CRD site than at Columneetza because of influence of local traffic and road dust,

overall the levels have declined. Increases normally occur in the spring when the winter road materials are still present. Saraswat said episode management is recommended when the valley experiences inversions. Home owners are encouraged to use cleaner fuels, such as switching from wood stoves to natural gas. Industry is also encouraged to switch to natural gas if possible. Dust control measures include managing road dust as well as dust from unpaved surfaces and from permitted industrial operations. An independently conducted air shed management plan review has been in progress since September and should be completed in Feb. 2013. “We have two sets of objectives we’re working with — provincial objectives and those of the air shed management plan. We are meeting the provincial objectives but are

not meeting the air shed management plan objectives at the CRD site.” Councillor Sue Zacharias said it was “heartening” to see the levels coming down. I was on the committee in 2008 and it’s gratifying to see the results. Statistics show it has gone down and show there are active stakeholders from the community and businesses that generate particulate matter. It’s been a team approach that is obviously paying off.” Coun. Surinderpal Rathor told Saraswat he is interested in any data from the South Lakeside area and asked when the city could expect to see those results. Recently air quality monitoring equipment was installed on the roof of the Williams Lake fire hall, however, data from it hasn’t been made available yet. “There’s a time lag because it’s a noncontinuous station and filters go to Burnaby for sampling.

UNBC hoping for feedback on pine beetle study Continued From Page A8 Funding for the project was provided by Genome Canada, Genome BC, Genome Alberta, the Canada Research Chairs Program, the Canada Foundation for Innovation, and the BC Knowledge Development Fund. “Because of our integration with other groups it’s hoped that the data will be shared widely. We have made the study an open article so all of the data involved is available to anybody in the world, including industry, and other scientists,” Huber said. “Hopefully people are able to grab it and make use of it one way or another.” Up until this point in time, the only thing known for certain about mountain pine beetle overwintering, other than some of its

temperature minimums and a few other things, was that it used glycerol as an antifreeze compound. “This study points to all sorts of different things related to the physiological development of the insect so there are all sorts of different directions to go with it. I see this paper as hub and from that research our group and other groups will take off. I can’t even predict where it will go because our group will look at it from one angle but other people will look at it from a different perspective,” Huber said. Prior to the most recent mountain pine beetle epidemic, researchers in B.C. did not have the benefit of genomics research, but have had access to other “excellent,” research based on ecological and population-based

studies. “This time the insect broke out into a different scientific context where we actually have different scientific tools to look at it. So we’ve been able to take the excellent foundation of previous research and now we have this new tool and we’re able to overlay that tool on the previous research, understanding what we know about the behaviour and physiology of this insect and find new things, which hopefully are able to help us currently as the pine beetle spreads into Alberta and in 20 or 30 years if this happens again,” Huber said. He also hopes it will help to understand parallel types of insect outbreaks such as spruce beetle or other creatures. “The amount of work that has gone into the

mountain pine beetle in the last decade is pretty unbelievable, but we know a heck of a lot more than we ever did in the past. It’s probably one of the best researched insects in the world,” he said, adding it doesn’t mean a magic bullet will be discovered any time soon to manage it perfectly. As scientists move toward understanding better how to manage insects like the mountain pine beetle, the world is also challenged by more uncertainty because of climate change. “There are two prongs to this thing. We know more about it than ever but we there’s also a lot more going on than ever with the insect,” Huber said. Huber’s article can be viewed at: www. sciencedirect.com/ science/article/pii/ S0965174812001221.

McLellan in line for title fight Wins unanimous decision in Moncton Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Williams Lake professional boxer Stuart McLellan is the number one contender for the National Boxing Authority’s Canadian Middleweight Title. McLellan was in Moncton Saturday taking on Brantford, Ont.’s Chris Aucoin (4-10-1) in an elimination bout to determine who would face former World Boxing Federation (WBF) intercontinental champion Fitz “The Whip” Vanderpool of Kitchener, Ont. in March for the currently vacant title. It was McLellan’s first fight in a year-and-a-half, and the lakecity pro showed he hadn’t missed a beat winning a unanimous decision over a game Aucoin in an eight-round bloodbath. With the win McLellan kept his undefeated record of eight wins, no losses and three draws intact. “I cut him bad in the second round,” McLellan said. “By the end of it we were both covered in blood and his left eye was completely swelled shut. “He’s probably the toughest guy I’ve ever come across. There was no quit in him. The whole time he was trying to win. He wouldn’t break down mentally.” McLellan said he felt good stepping back in the ring, despite having a bit of trouble adapting to the eastern time zone’s three-hour difference. “To be honest I felt like taking a nap [just before the fight],” he said. “It was rough with the time change this time. I didn’t get a whole lot of

Williams Lake pro boxer Stuart McLellan, 26, will fight for the National Boxing Authority (NBA) middleweight championship in March against Fitz Vanderpool. sleep but it’s just like a light switch goes off when you go in the ring and I felt good. “He’s a tough guy. He was right there to be hit and he could take them all night.” McLellan said the key to the fight was his movement, as Aucoin’s fighting style lends itself to

brawling. “I used good distance and timing coming in,” he said. “I just counter-punched him. He was coming straight forward and brawling so I’d let him come in and make his move, and I moved well on my feet.” Blair Cormier, a director with

the National Boxing Authority, said the fight was outstanding to watch. “Aucoin showed once again why he belongs with the best in the business, while McLellan showcased his gifted hand speed and accuracy,” Cormier said. “Few fighters anywhere would have survived this bout.” McLellan’s next test against Vanderpool will undoubtedly be the toughest of his career. Vanderpool, who is in his 40s and has fought the likes of former International Boxing Federation (IBF) light middleweight champion Fernando Vargas, recently made his comeback to the sport in September with a victory. He is a former Canadian welterweight champion, a former WBF welterweight champion, former World Boxing Council (WBC) light middleweight champion and former WBF light middleweight champion. McLellan’s brother Roberto, the current Canadian Professional Boxing Council’s (CPBC) light middleweight champion, is also slated to be on the March card in Moncton to fight for an NBA title. McLellan said the support he received from local Williams Lake Boxing Club sparring partners and his dad, Gary, and brother, Roberto — who was his cornerman for the first time in his career — was phenomenal.

Stampeders split weekend games Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer A short-benched Williams Lake Stampeders squad won one and lost one on the weekend, lifting them to a first-place Central Interior Hockey League East Division tie with the Lac La Hache Tomahawks. Saturday, Williams Lake skated to a 5-1 trouncing over the Prince Rupert Rampage. Sunday, however, a 12-player, two-goalie ros-

ter began to takes its toll on the Stamps and the Terrace River Kings picked up its second win of the weekend with a 5-2 win over Williams Lake. Saturday Williams Lake netminder Justin Foote picked up the win, while Stamps’ leading scorer Nathan Zurak (11-5-16) potted four power play goals. Brent McIsaac also scored for Williams Lake. Scoring the lone marker for Prince Rupert was Josh Kierce. Sunday, Terrace goals came from

the sticks of Kyle Holtom, Richard Clair, Joey Carmano (2) and Tristan Murray. Williams Lake’s offence came from defenceman Aaron Zurak and brother Nathan. Foote turned aside a peppering 37 of 42 shots in the losing effort. The weekend road split, paired with two weekend losses by the Lac La Hache Tomahawks, leaves both teams in a first-place deadlock in the division. Williams Lake sits at 6-3-1 while Lac La Hache has amassed a 6-4-1

record just past the midway point of the 18-game regular season. This weekend both teams will be looking to take sole control over first-place in the division with a pair of divisional matchups. Williams Lake hosts the Quesnel Kangaroos Friday at 7:30 p.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex, before heading off to Lac La Hache’s Rolf Zeis Memorial Arena Saturday for a tilt with the Tomahawks. Game time in Lac La Hache is 7:30 p.m.

SPORTS NOTEBOOK Friday, Nov. 30

Stampeders host Kangaroos The last time the Williams Lake Stampeders and the Quesnel Kangaroos faced off it was quite the spirited affair, to say the least. Williams Lake walked away 7-4 winners but the Kangaroos will likely have payback on their minds. Game time is 7:30 p.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. Currently the Stampeders sit at 6-3-1 in a first-place East Division tie with the Lac La Hache Tomahawks.

Doug Green talks boating, bike film This is the third and final part of a three-part series of interviews profiling Cariboo residents involved in Where The Trail Ends. The film will be screened tonight at the Paradise Theatre at 7 p.m. This interview is with Doug Green of Cariboo Chilcotin Jet Boat Adventures, who hosted the Fraser River segment of the film in the fall of 2011. Consortium: When did you first get contacted about this film? What were your first thoughts about it? Green: I was in Whistler, B.C. at a board of directors meeting for Aboriginal Tourism BC in the fall of 2011 when I received a call from Derek Westlund of Freeride Entertainment. I hadn’t met Derek before, and he asked if I’d be willing to take a crew of mountain bikers down the Fraser River for a film called, Where The Trail Ends. We talked about his history in the area primarily associated with the New World Disorder films, some of which featured James Doerfling from Williams Lake and I was impressed by some of the gnarly stuff that he had been riding recently. I asked about Where The Trail Ends and he went on the explain how Red Bull Media was involved along with some of the other major sponsors like North Face and Contour. He told me some of the riders that were going to be involved, including James Doefling and Darren Bearcloth. It sounded like it was going to be a

well-organized and big production, and he also agreed to help me promote my business. So we made a deal over the phone. At the end of the day, Derek said he would to treat me well and he has. This was a great experience working with professionals along with the adrenaline pumping action that comes along with this sport. I really enjoyed it. Consortium: Did you know the area in the film before hand? Does the area have any history that you could share? Green: Yes I knew the area that was featured in the film and had a pretty good idea of what they were looking for. James had an idea where he wanted to go as well, so I brought them a little bit further in and, to everybody’s delight, we found the zone. There is a lot more river and more lines out there that didn’t appear in the film, so we may not be seeing the end of freeriding on the Fraser. We just scratched the surface of it. Consortium: Tell me about the trip? How many boat trips did you have to make to get all the gear in? Was the boat involved in the filming as well? What were the river conditions like? Green: It was fall, so the river was a little low. The crew had a lot of gear so it took about six trips to get it all in over two days. There were two helicopters on the shoot as well, which was super cool. Being chased by helicopters as you’re navigating rapids and canyons on the river is pretty exhilarating and a great way to

wake up every morning. They filmed every aspect of the boat from our launch at Sheep Creek to our camp down river. Our camp location is in this really stunning part of the river and is in my traditional territory — really nice location near Riske Creek. It’s a great spot with enough area for the 21 tents and 19-21people involved, a kitchen, couple of chefs that prepared amazing meals, good fires at night, it was a great time. Consortium: How do you feel about mountain biking in your Traditional Territory? What do you say to any other riders who want to come and ride these areas? Green: I think most of the locals that know the area and have respect for it. They know where to ride, and which area to leave alone and respect. Visitors don’t know the area so it’s best if they get a guide so they don’t disrupt the partnerships we’ve built and the environment we have. When visitors are planning a trip, they should contact the local bike shop, the consortium or me to get advice. Consortium: Any final thoughts? Green: One thing I noticed after watching the movie was the abundance of wildlife on the Fraser River segment compared to the other locations. There is more wildlife here than all the other locations combined. Overall it was an awesome experience hanging out with these guys. I worked with the crew on the shoots in most of the zones and it was amazing watching these dudes perform.

Thursday, November 29, 2012 Williams Lake Tribune

“They call the Cariboo home” Dan Hicks photographic retrospective Dan Hicks Special to The Tribune I have lived in Alexis Creek since April 2003, where I came to work for the Chilcotin Forest District as a forest technologist, a relocation from Prince George necessitated by massive layoffs in the BC Forest Service. I was originally in compliance and enforcement but moved to the stewardship monitoring program in April 2006. Stewardship involves monitoring the effectiveness of forest practices regarding cut-block reserves, adjoining streams, and road crossings of streams. In 2010, the Alexis Creek office was reduced to a field office, becoming part of the Cariboo-Chilcotin District of the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations. This month, nearing 29 years with the BC Forest Service and derivatives thereof, I became a confirmed candidate for a pension. Alexis Creek’s population has dwindled over the years, and our local community and gun clubs have shrunken to a critical membership core. The absence of social distractions in Alexis Creek has facilitated my taking my photography hobby more seriously than I otherwise would, though I remain an unremunerated amateur. I have shared many memorable Chilcotin moments with Tribune readers beginning with its Dec. 13, 2007 publication of my illustrated article, “Bull Canyon Billy, the lone goat of the Chilcotin.” I had managed to capture a portrait photo of our resident goat that September when, in an effort to elude me, he ran uphill and met me. My next Tribune submission and first Tribune front page photo was of my Feb. 20, 2008 total lunar eclipse photo, in the Feb. 22 Tribune, with another eclipse photo and an article published a week

Dan Hicks photo

Amateur photographer Dan Hicks takes beautiful pictures in the Chilcotin which have appeared in the Tribune. He lives at Alexis Creek and works as a forest technologist. later. The dark sky of the Chilcotin, relatively free of urban sky-glow pollution, has enabled me to capture various lunar and astronomical images; one of the more memorable images being of a Harvest moon rising above distant Douglas firs, published in the Sept.16, 2011 Tribune. My Alexis Creek night wildfire images were featured on the Tribune front pages of Aug. 6 2009, and July 30 and Aug. 3, 2010, and on Aug.17, 2010, a front page photo of a “surreal sun,” the setting sun dimmed by intense smoke to resemble a moon-like orb. The two 2010 wildfire photos, captured on July 29, were of a roaring predawn crown fire west of Bull Canyon whose sound was as intimating as its appearance. Besides fire, a less dramatic portrayal of the mountain pine beetle scourge was my Oct. 8, 2009 front page photo of a dead pine and its gnarled branches silhouetted by the Harvest moon. Perhaps the photo of mine which best intimates the

sad extent of beetle-caused pine mortality was published in the Tribune on Sept. 21 this year, entitled “Chilcotin Marsh Ghosts In Early Autumn,” at Henri Lake swamp, showing a crumbling and doomed Russell fence extending into a forest of dead pine. Though I have never been a trap shooter myself, I photographed the annual May BC Forest Service Alexis Creek Trap Shoot for five successive years, from 2007 to 2011, its 40th year. The Tribune always published my summary of the shoot and at least one of my photos. Our July Alexis Creek Daze community activity event was initiated in 2011, and the Tribune has featured a few of my Daze photos, the most notable being this year’s July 27 front page image of choreographed dancing cowgirls. A combination of the trap shoot and the Daze events would be sensational, Alexis Creek would spawn an astounding display of choreographed dancing cow-

girls with shotguns. The Chilcotin rodeo mountain races at Nemiah and Redstone are unique and daring equestrian competitions, and I was proud to have the Tribune publish two of my photos which I believe portray the spirit of these races; the Aug. 10, 2010 “kings of the mountain” photo from Nemiah, and the Aug. 28 “Redstone rumble” photo of this year. That said, my most memorable Chilcotin equestrian image may be the one which graced the front page of this year’s Aug. 21 Tribune, showing the young winner of the Redstone Rodeo’s second Quarter Mile Flatland Race galloping to victory alone on her steed across the open grassland. An endearing Chilcotin rodeo artistic experience for me was the painting of two of my Nemiah Rodeo photos of a child barrel racer by an amateur Williams Lake artist who has since moved away. The artist was inspired to create her first painting after seeing my photo of the

tight-turning barrel racer in the Aug. 17, 2010 Tribune, a painting which was in turn featured in the Dec. 9 paper. The painting was part of the BC Rodeo Association exhibit at the March 2011 Kamloops Cowboy Festival. I acquired both paintings in September 2011, but was unsuccessful in my attempt this February to arrange a trusteeship for them with the barrel racer herself as the future beneficiary. Although dismissed as cartoonish by some, I see these paintings as charmingly sentimental portrayals of a confident little rodeo cowgirl and her horses in a pastoral Chilcotin setting. The only formal photography recognition I have ever received was from Montana’s Glacier National Park in 2009, when, for the park’s 2010 Centennial, I was designated one of 14 “Glacier Centennial Artists” for my smokey, August 2000 photo of Kinnerly Peak in Glacier’s Rockies, taken from Akamina Ridge in BC’s Akamina-Kishinena Provincial Park. The photo and Erin Hitchcock’s article was published in the July 15, 2010 Tribune. I have covered a lot of ground in that park. The Americans are generous with their national parks and, in Glacier, a network of good backcountry trails facilitates access into some majestic Rocky Mountain vistas. Although Glacier serves an important role as a nature preserve, it is nevertheless an actual “park,” for the people and open to the people. What of the Chilcotin’s wild mountainous environs? Images of these rugged places are the purview of another Alexis Creek photographer, globetrotting adventurer Chris Schmid, who sleeps out under the winter stars. I am more of an opportunist, observing the rural world around me, and occasionally capturing some memorable moments in time.

Maranatha Players back on stage Val Hanet Special to The Tribune Maranatha Christian School has been a buzz with costume fittings, set building and rehearsals. This year, under the direction of their drama teacher, Becky Strickland, the high school students have been working on their production, the musical Peter Panic. As the Maranatha Players head into their 11th year of musical performances, the cast is a blend of new and experienced actors who are working together to create a show of the highest calibre. Many of the older students have taken on the responsibility of mentoring those in grades eight and nine. Together they grow, not only in their skills on the stage, but in their respect for one another. They truly learn what it means to work as a team. This year, a fusion of choreographers took on the creation of the choreography for the many musical numbers in the play. Not only has Becky Strickland been working to bring the songs to life, but she has been assisted by a fellow thespian, Stacey Poirier, and one of the actors from the play, Monika Klaue. Both Poirier and Klaue have many years of dance background which helped develop the modern feel of the dance numbers. “Their help was invaluable.” Strickland said, “They truly brought a new perspective to the music and what could be done.” Together the

Paint Rock High’s football team (Garrett Shepherd, Rudy Klaue, and Mike Warkentin) try to sabotage the drama club’s production of Peter Pan in The Maranatha Player’s musical, Peter Panic. three choreographers have created some very unique numbers, full of energy and enthusiasm. Peter Panic is the story of Pam, played by Sarah Hanet, the president of the drama club at Paint Rock High School, and her thespian friends who decide to save their club from the school budget cuts by putting on a huge production of Peter Pan. But Coach Rook, played by Matt Schuetze, has other plans. He’s facing his own budget crisis

in his football program and sets his pirates loose on the drama club to wreak havoc! Football players audition for parts, cheerleaders become mermaids, and in desperation, Pam recruits students from detention to help out. This refreshingly clever and fun homage to the original classic is full of heart and will remind both the young and the young-at-heart to always follow their dreams!

Peter Panic runs Dec. 6-8 and Dec. 13-15, with a matinee on Dec. 15. Tickets are on sale at Wise Owl Toys and Maranatha Christian School; adults $10, and children (under 13) and seniors $8. This production will be on stage at the Maranatha Christian School Theatre, 1278 Lakeview Crescent. So come fly away with Pam and the drama kids as they battle Rook and his pirates to save their Neverland.

Yuletide Christmas Feast celebrates community caring Plans for the 15th annual Yuletide Christmas Feast are moving right along, say organizers. The dinner is a gift from members of the Williams Lake community to anyone experiencing lean times this season. Lean times need not mean only a shortage of funds for a traditional feast, but perhaps lean on company to celebrate the season. The dinner will be held at the Ramada Convention Center (Overlander) with many thanks to Lindsey Gasparini and all the staff for

donating many hours of their time preparing and serving the dinner, says organizer Vanessa Riplinger of the Child Development Centre. Last year more than 600 people attended the dinner and the number is expected to increase this year. “The Ramada Convention Center has graciously offered to once again host this year’s Yuletide Christmas Dinner,” Riplinger says. “Thanks in advance to Lindsey Gasparini, and all the staff at the Ramada for their incredible gift to the community of Williams Lake.”

The dinner will be served at the Ramada Convention Center between 4 and 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 5. The dinner is also made possible by contributions from the community. The cost of sponsoring an individual plate is $10. The cost to sponsor a family of four is $40. This promises to be a joyful and festive occasion with great food and entertainment. “This entire event is a volunteer effort,” Riplinger says. “If you

would like to donate, money donations can be dropped off at the Child Development Centre at 690 North Second Ave. The Yuletide Dinner Group is a registered group for tax receipt purposes. “Thanks to all the volunteers that are already promising to make the Yuletide Dinner wonderful. Thanks in advance to all the support anticipated from our generous community and welcome to all of you coming to dine, and joining in the festivities.”

Const. Micheal Berns awarded Queen’s medal Const. Micheal Berns received the Queen’ Diamond Jubilee Medal at an RCMP awards ceremony in Prince George Nov. 7. He is one of the few Williams Lake and area residents to earn the honour. The new commemorative medal was created to mark the 2012 celebrations of the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the Throne as Queen of Canada. The Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal is a tangible way for Canada to honour Her Majesty for service to this country. At the same time, it serves to honour significant contributions and achievements by Canadians. During the year of celebrations, 60,000 deserving Canadians will be recognized. Since moving to Williams Lake in January 2007 Const. Berns immediately started working on a weekly basis with the local 3064 Army

Const. Micheal Berns is pictured here with his four-year-old daughter Sienna. Cadets, states his biography. As commanding officer he is responsible for administering the training, ensuring safe and efficient delivery of the program, and for enhancing community involvement in the cadet movement in Williams Lake. Const. Berns fosters positive working relationships with all sec-

tors of youth in Williams Lake. Over the past year, Const. Berns has also assisted 202 Chilcotin Sea Cadets in Williams Lake. He spends an average of 12 days a month working with cadets on various activities on top of his full-time career obligations and family commitment. Without his drive and

dedication, the community of Williams Lake would not have two wonderful youth-based programs. Const. Berns is a full time RCMP officer with the Williams Lake Forensic Identification Section. He is one of the founding co-coordinators responsible for planning and implementing the RCMP Youth Academy held in Williams Lake in March of 2012. He looks forward to planning another successful youth academy in 2013. Const. Berns is also an accomplished bagpipe musician. He has played with the Williams Lake Pipes and Drums band and has volunteered for numerous community events as a bagpiper including Remembrance Day ceremonies, funerals, banquets, and other special community events. He is currently developing a youth-based pipes and drums band in Williams Lake.

Const. Berns is dedicated and works above and beyond to provide opportunities and positive choices for the youth in Williams Lake. He brings credit to his community and Canada as an outstanding citizen, states his biography.

Kleena Kleene gets a new postmistress Linda-Lou Howarth photo

Linda Lou Howarth Special to The Tribune Once again a road trip out west proved eventful when we stopped at the new Kleena Kleene post office. As of Oct. 1 the post office has been situated at a new place, located about three kilometres west of the Shortreeds. The post office is near where the mailboxes are against a building just off the side of the road about a half hour or so from Tatla Lake. Melodie Dawn Gano, was appointed as post mistress of the Kleena Kleene post office, where upon she immediately found a

Cataline elementary intergenerational dinner Dec. 11

Photo submitted

Mark Johnson, and Cooper Smith give senior Jean Yablonski a big buddy hug.

The Cataline Elementary Intergenerational Learning project’s annual fundraising dinner and silent auction is coming up on Tuesday, Dec. 11. This is the second year the Grade 6/7 class at Cataline Elementary has been involved in an intergenerational learning program with seniors living at the Seniors Village. The students go to school with the seniors at the Seniors Village for five weeks during October/November and again in the spring. All funds raised at the dinner and silent auction go toward creating a scholarship that the

Eye Health Matters EYE HEALTH - THE BASICS For most of us our vision is our most precious sense. However, many people overlook eye health as part of their regular health routine. There are specific steps we can take to take care of our eyes and promote good eye health and vision. In many cases the steps we take now help to give us the best vision possible in later life. • Get regular comprehensive eye health examinations by an optometrist or ophthalmologist. Many eye diseases have no symptoms until late in the disease. Many people are surprised to learn that even though vision could be 20/20, an eye disease could be progressing. Your eye doctor should give you a full explanation of your eye health status, any specific eye health risks and how often you should have an eye exam. • Always wear eye protection when working or playing in a situation where eye injury is at risk. This can’t be emphasized enough. Some studies show almost 50% of eye injuries occur in the home so it pays to be diligent with safety eyewear.

• It is also helpful to know your risks of eye disease. If you have a family history of glaucoma or macular degeneration you have a greater risk of eye disease. Other risk factors include: history of eye injury or surgery, a recent change in vision, pain in or around the eyes, age over 65, and diabetes. If any of these factors apply to you, regular comprehensive eye health examinations are even more important.

• Eat healthy. Choose foods rich in vitamins C, E, beta-carotene, zinc and lutein. Coloured vegetables and green leafy vegetables tend to be good for your eyes.

• Protect your eyes from exposure to UV light from the sun. Sunglasses do not have to be expensive but should have a label ensuring adequate protection from UV light. A wide brimmed hat also is helpful in that it also protects the sensitive skin around the eye.

OAPO Christmas dinner Dec. 13 Win Gooding Special to The Tribune

It’s hard to believe there are only 23 sleeps until Christmas. Time to get busy and write those yearly Christmas cards to relatives and friends so they’ll arrive before the day. The turnout for the OAPO Branch 93 lunch and bazaar on Nov. 15 was awesome as usual.

Thanks to all the seniors and friends for your support and to everyone who contributed to the bake table and raffle. A big thank you to all the volunteers who worked in the kitchen, the servers and elsewhere. Without your dedicated help, this event wouldn’t be the success it was. Tickets are on sale now at the centre’s office for the gala Christmas OAPO

dinner on Dec. 13. Pick up your tickets early so you don’t miss out on this annual event. Memberships for 2013 are also on sale at the Seniors’ Activity Centre. There will not be an OAPO Branch 93 monthly meeting in December. The next meeting will be on Thursday, Jan. 10 at 2 p.m. Coffee, tea and refreshments are served afterwards.
