Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Residents living in and around Johnson Street in Williams Lake say they are upset with proposed improvements to Highway 97 that could see traffic exit off the highway and into their residential areas along McKinnon Road and Johnson Street. “Johnson Street is residential and it should stay that way,” Johnson Street resident Gordon Stevenson said Tuesday. Stevenson said residents don’t oppose a light-controlled intersection being installed at Highway 97 and Toop Road, but they don’t want to see the intersec-

Introducing

tion being connected to Johnson Street. If the latest proposed plan, unveiled at an open house held Aug. 28 at city hall, were to go ahead, it would “open up” the usually residential quiet Johnson Street to a substantially increased traffic flow, Stevenson said. Stevenson and about 100 other residents attended the highway project development open house, many of them to voice their opposition to the plan. They also suggested the intersection at Highway 97 and Carson Drive needs to be retained with lights, with the improvement of a left-turn advance green light. If the lights are removed at

Carson and Highway 97, it will only add to the number of accidents, Stevenson added. “With all the people currently using this route to access the Williams Lake high school, the arena, and downtown, this is a planned disaster. There are already accidents at this intersection with the traffic lights now in place.” Stevenson added Johnson Street already has enough traffic because people use it as a short cut. “We were just told by someone at the hospital that people use the hospital as a short cut and go through the parking lot to Fourth Avenue.”

The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure told the Tribune/Weekend Advisor Tuesday it will continue to work with the city to ensure the highway and municipal street connections are safe and effective for both traffic and residents. “Feedback from the previous ministry open house in June confirmed that Toop Road and Highway 97 provides a better intersection for safety, mobility and grades for the approaches to the highway,” the ministry said in an e-mailed response. “As the detailed design is completed we will undertake specific negotiation with individual property and business owners.”

GRIZZLY: Attack

Bella Coola man throws the punch of his life Caitlin Thompson Coast Mountain News Jerry Lacerte isn’t sure how he survived last week’s sudden grizzly attack, but he’s still amazed that he escaped. “I shouldn’t be alive,” Lacerte said recently as he was preparing to be released from hospital. “It’s not fun to dance around with a grizzly bear.” Lacerte was heading east on Highway 20, just above Thorsen Creek, at about 8:15 a.m. Friday morning. He said he just caught a glimpse of the bear out of the corner of his eye before the at-

tack. “She was about 50 feet behind me on the other side of the road,” he said. “I turned and she was galloping towards me.” Lacerte had just enough time to turn around and tried to make himself look big, but he said she charged on. “She grabbed my arm and knocked me to the ground and started mauling my face and head,” he said. “It was like being hit with a sledgehammer.” Lacerte was just about knocked out by the bear, but managed to recover quickly

enough to punch her in the nose. “When I punched her she let go,” he said. “Then I just covered up my head and tried to protect myself.” Lacerte played dead and was rescued almost immediately afterwards by a passing vehicle and transported to the hospital. “The whole thing lasted less than a few minutes,” he said. “I’m sure the traffic saved me.” Conservation Officers are now in the area trying to locate the bear, and CO Len Butler says they are also trying to determine what motivated the attack.

“It seems like it was a defensive attack. The bears are in the river right now feeding on the salmon … people have to be aware when there are bears in the rivers like that. It is a dangerous situation.” Butler agrees that Lacerte is lucky to have escaped the attack and is expected to fully recover from his injuries. “Just from the strength and the power of these animals, Jerry is a very lucky individual,” said Butler. “We all know the size of the grizzlies… it’s definitely life threatening and it could have been for him.”

Cougar sighting kicks off start of the school year Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Residents living in and around Chilcotin Road Elementary School in Williams Lake should beware that a cougar has been seen in the area, said Sgt. Len Butler of the Conservation Officer

Services Friday. “We’re doing a monitoring of the cougar, we’re not trying to catch it right now,” Butler confirmed. Last Thursday evening, Conservation Officer Jeff Tyre patrolled the area in and around the school and along Woodland Drive.

“He stopped into the school this morning and advised everybody of what was going on,” Butler said. “There have been no complaints of pets being taken. The cougar has just been seen in different places at different times.” Butler said there are

“so many” cougars in the region and it’s not unusual for them to be around. “We just want to let people know about this one because it has been seen close to the school.” Cougars are following deer for the most part and are not at-

Assault charges pending after vodka bottle thrown at RCMP officer Assault charges are pending against an individual who threw a vodka bottle at a police officer during a routine road check on Saturday, Sept. 7. The incident happened at approximately 11:30 p.m. at a road check on Highway 20 at Cotton Road near Riske Creek.

A westbound vehicle approached, slowed, then swerved into the oncoming lane and drove by police, failing to stop. As the vehicle passed, a passenger threw a vodka bottle at police hitting one of the police officers. Police closed the distance and after ob-

taining a plate number shut emergency equipment off and did not pursue. At that point, the transmission blew on the fleeing vehicle. The vehicle slowed and eventually came to a stop in the ditch on Highway 20. Police arrested the driver and two pas-

sengers. All were intoxicated. The driver refused to provide a breath sample. The vehicle, a black 1995 Jeep Cherokee, had been reported stolen. Charges including assaulting a peace officer, flight from police, possession stolen vehicle and impaired refusal are pending.

tracted to garbage, Butler explained. If there are cougar sightings people should call the Report All Poachers and Polluters (RAPP) line, he added. “If there is any livestock taken or cougars are demonstrating aggressive behaviour, we’d really like to

know, especially if cougars are seen by schools or dense neighbourhoods. It’s still fairly warm and if for some reason we have to deal with it by using hounds or traps, we want to get on it right away.” Butler said the odd bear has been sighted

this season, but compared to last year it has been quiet. “I’m touching wood,” he said. People are urged, however, to pick up any rotting fruit from their yards and to wait to put out their garbage cans until morning.

NEWS Fires monitored

THREE VEHICLE MVI

The Cariboo Fire Centre is reporting that there are currently five modified response wildfires burning in the area. Modified response status means the Wildfire Management Branch is monitoring these wildfires but not suppressing them, due to the ecological benefits of naturally occurring fires as well as their remote locations. The five modified response fires are: two in Bowron Lake Provincial Park (Isaac Lake; 49 ha/Indianpoint Lake; 2.7 ha), one in Ts’ylos Provincial Park (Chilko Lake; 2 ha) and two “modified response” fires in Cariboo

RCMP, Ambulance, Search and Rescue and the Fire Department attended a three vehicle incident at the intersection of Carson Drive and Highway 97 on Friday, Sept. 6. The RCMP said there were no major injuries to all involved.

Mountains Provincial Park (Niagra River Valley; 43 ha/Summit Lake; 3 ha). These fires may be visible to park visitors and people in the area may also be able to smell smoke. The CFC/ WMB is working in cooperation with BC Parks to manage these fires. Fire is a natural process in the Cariboo-Chilcotin’s environment. It helps maintain a healthy forest and a diversity of plant and animal habitat. The CFC/WMB is using patrol flights to monitor the Modified Response wildfires and check the region for more lightning-strike holdover fires.

City to host budget discussion Thursday Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The public will have a chance to have its say at a public budget meeting with city council taking place Thursday, Sept. 12. “We want to avail an opportunity for the public to be more engaged,” chief administrative officer Darrell

Garceau said. Garceau’s hoping the public will let council know what’s important. “It’s structured, but for the most part it will be an engaged discussion,” he said. There will be seven tables set up in the Gibraltar Room with one of the seven council members at each table.

and she will also have a handout for the the public. “We didn’t want to be too instructive or prescriptive, we really want to encourage open dialogue, Garceau said. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex’s Gibraltar Room.

Free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. - Albert Camus

Affordable housing in short supply

Come share ideas at Sept. 12 budget meeting

n 1971, the Tribune’s editorial staff was the editor, sports editor/darkroom person, and me, part time community editor. Clive Stangoe was the publisher and usually wrote the editorials. He insisted the women staff wear skirts/dresses, no pants. I took issue with this. When I asked why I couldn’t wear a pant suit, he said because he didn’t like them. He eventually gave in, but he was grumpy French about it. Connection The late AuDiana French drey Maclise was advertising manager at the time. Knowing we were both a tad strongminded, a couple of people actually made bets as to how long I’d last. As it happened, Audrey and I ended up being good friends. Which brings me to another issue. Affordable housing is, and always has been, in short supply in this city. It’s bad enough driving by the boarded up Slumberlodge, which is privately owned, but what about the Cariboo Lodge building? The city owns it. Without Audrey to prod them, are councillors going to let it take up that space forever? *** Former premier Bill Vander Zalm is in the news again. This time he’s on the prod over chemtrails. I like him. A lot of people don’t. His policies in government hurt a lot of people, and I certainly sympathize with them, but just because you disagree with a person’s politics (or whatever) doesn’t mean you can’t like the person. I’m hardly a buddy but I interviewed Mr. VDZ a few times when he was in politics, and a year or so ago he was guest of honour and volunteer auctioneer at a fundraiser where GD#4 and her band were entertaining. When he learned Granny was in the audience he invited me to sit at the VIP table near the stage where he and his wife treated me like an old friend. Have to say it was fun. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Our Viewpoint

Back to school grief and relief September is the season of change, and there is no greater adjustment for families than the first days and weeks of back to school. For some, that may mean the heartache of watching their children leave the nest for college or university — hoping they’ve done enough to prepare them for the world on their own while praying that they’ll still come back to visit. For others, back to school spells relief for those fed up with wide-open summer days and who are ready for daily routines and a return to a sense of normalcy. This week also marks the start of full-time kindergarten for many, an exciting but also worrisome time for parents when their four- and five-year-old “babies” are taking their first steps away from home.

For teachers and administrative staff, this year back to school presents the extra challenge of working through major changes for teachers employed in our district due to the school board’s decision in January to close and consolidate schools. Though there are sure to be growing pains in the weeks and months to come (we have already heard of bussing issues), district staff, principals and teachers should be commended for their hard work and dedication to making the transition as seamless as possible for students. Whatever change you are in, we wish everyone the best in the first days of back to school madness.

ong term financial planning has always been a goal of this council, and we’ve always been looking at ways of improving our budget process. This year, we are taking it to the next step. I want to invite all residents to come out in an informal setting and let us know what your priorities are. We want to hear what’s important to you in shaping the future of From the Williams Lake. Mayor’s The meeting is Chair at 6 p.m. this Thursday, Sept. Kerry Cook 12 in the Gibraltar Room. We will be there to listen to you and hear what you have to say! Thank you to all those who showed up to the recent Highway 97 and Johnson Street Open House. There was a great turnout with lots of questions and discussion mainly around the impact on Johnson Street. The Ministry of Transportation project to improve safety on Highway 97 near Carson Drive by reconfiguring the intersection has been in the works for many years. There have been four open houses since 2009 about the project. The Ministry started with three design options, and based on input and reviews, brought one recommended design to an open house in June this year. Based on city concerns about local connections, another option was presented to council. A report summarizing the input from the August open house dealing with a number of issues will be prepared for council, and we will have further discussion with the Ministry of Transportation before making any decisions about the final configuration of roads and intersections. A huge thank you to all of the organizers and volunteers for the Harvest Fair and the Big Brothers and Big Sisters Tour de Cariboo this weekend. And as ArtWalk wraps up, a big thank you to the BIA and all of the businesses and artists for another successful event! Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.

Try some sensible new high school names Editor: Maybe I’m “old school” in that I believe in traditional values — and one of these is democracy. It seems that Williams Lake is sadly lacking in the democratic process. One obvious example is the new reconfiguration of the high schools. School District 27 administration, strongly influenced by three or four individuals, has decided to make Williams Lake secondary the senior school, and Columneetza secondary the junior school. Wrong decision. Columneetza, a campus style school, has always been for senior grades, and is fortunate to have the best trades shops in the province, very good instructors, and an apprenticeship program for the trades with TRU. In an area where trades are very important, these shops and training are very important for the future careers of the students. Many chose to attend Columneetza for this reason.

Now, with reconfiguration, their education will be derailed, with adjustment to the change, shuttle buses for classes, and much less extra time for their own projects. I also hear that TRU has dropped the apprenticeship program. There were public meetings for concerned parents to voice their concerns. These meetings meant nothing. There was no vote involving the students, parents, and teachers who are affected by the decision, even though the online poll showed 75 per cent opposition to making WLSS the senior high school. A similar scenario occurred some 12 years ago when it was announced that a new $10 million multi-care facility for seniors would be built ... when we had some of the best care facilities for seniors in the province. Town hall meetings were held where many people voiced their opposition. An overwhelming majority of

the community opposed the plan. At that time the predominate influence to push the new Seniors Village was the Liberal wannabes hoping to further their political ambitions and gain favour with Gordon Campbell’s new bureaucracy. At that time there was no vote or referendum, despite the clear majority opposition. More than a dozen of the elders in the community died in the transition months. Williams Lake needs some changes in its management, and a lot more common sense. Listening to a few persuasive individuals rather than the majority of the community simply does not work. Democracy becomes a thing of the past. And the people in the community suffer. How easy could this “reconfiguration” have been?

Police should focus on real bad guys Editor: Regarding Jeff Nagel’s story on the Tatla Lake gun sting, Re: Police raid huge gun arsenal in B.C.’s Chilcotin. You need to do your own investigative reporting.

I was around the day the undercover police were there for their fishing trip — entrapment is all I can say. And I would be surprised if the main charges stick. The police need to start catching bad guys and stop ha-

rassing an important person in our community of Tatla Lake who spends his time contributing to making the West Chilcotin a better place. Doug McMann Tatla Lake

I hope many of you had the chance to check out the Williams Lake Harvest Fair last

weekend, which showcased the products of our local farmers and ranchers. With food, entertainment, ranching competitions, and much more, this was a great cel-

ebration of our local farmers, and it was perfect timing that Farmers’ Appreciation Week kicked off right in the middle of the Harvest Fair. Appreciating and helping our farmers is important, and our government works to support our farmers through programs and policies like the Farmers’ Market Coupon Nutrition Program, the Buy Local program, a carbon tax exemption on coloured fuels used in farm equipment, and the Growing Forward

agreement with the federal government. The best way to support our local farmers, however, is to buy locally-sourced food. An easy way to do that is to shop at a farmers’ market, and we have two of them right here in Williams Lake. The Williams Lake Farmers Market is in Boitanio Park every Friday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the Oliver Street Market at the Old Courthouse Square is on Fridays from 4 to 9 p.m.

These markets are a great place not just to get delicious food, but also to meet people and socialize. So this week, don’t forget to give thanks to our local farmers. The forecast for the next couple of days is warm and sunny, so it’s a great chance for one last barbecue with delicious B.C. beef before the fall sets in. Coralee Oakes is the MLA for Cariboo North and is the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

What’s the Scoop! your guide to what’s going on in Williams Lake

Film club season opens with Mud Treat yourself to a weekly night out!

Krista Liebe Special to The Tribune The Williams Lake Film Club is happy to announce that the new season is starting this coming Tuesday, Sept. 17. And to make it even more exciting we have chosen a film many of you are really looking forward to see — Mud. I know, the title is not exactly promising but the film sure is. It will be screened at the Gibraltar Room at the Memorial Complex at 7 p.m., back doors open at 6:30 p.m. Admission still is $9 regular, $8 for film club members, and $6 for seniors/elders and students, TRU students included. Memberships also are still only $10 for the whole season (September till May) and will be available at the door. Membership entitles you to one Dollar off regular admission (not for seniors, so sorry) and you will receive regular email reminders of upcoming films and events and you will have input in the choosing of the films to be screened, as it happened with this one. We normally do not look too closely at big name productions, but this one really seems to fit our club.. Mud is a film that is a pleasure to look at, and it also has a fantastic story that weaves in poverty, youth, the loss of innocence, love, and violence. It stars Matthew McConaughey as the rustic, snaggle-toothed man on the run, Reese Whitherspoon, portraying perfectly dam-

The first film up for the Williams Lake Film Club’s fall season is Mud starring Matthew McConaughey (above). The films shown by the film club are always fundraisers. All proceeds go to rebuild the Learning Disabilities Association Williams Lake Chapter of the Association for Students with Learning Disabilities. aged goods and his lost love, Tye Sheridan, and Jacob Lofland, the two 14 year old boys and best friends, and Sam Shepard. Set around the Mississippi River and told from the perspective of one of the boys, director Jeff Nichols’ third feature film (Take Shelter and Shotgun Stories are his first two films) taps into a romantic image of alpha male: the man in the forest with the gun, man against establishment, the vagabond who sleeps in a different spot every night, but it truly is about the complexity of man in his relationship with others. It also is about the fragility of man, the craving to be loved and how easily that love is misplaced, taken away, cheated on or lost.

The cinematography is beautiful, the acting is near perfect, and the story will keep you involved and will stay with you. Okay, I have not yet seen the film but from all I have been told and found in my research, I do believe that this is a perfect opener for our season. I am really looking forward to it. Mud played to great acclaim at Cannes, Toronto and Sundance and is now finally making its way to Williams Lake. There will be one screening only, don’t miss it. And just to remind you, our films and events are always fundraisers. All proceeds go to rebuild the LDA, the Williams Lake Chapter of the Association for Students with Learning Disabilities.

Library film night Sept. 12 The Williams Lake Library will show the film Stories We Tell directed by Sarah Polley on Thursday, Sept. 12 starting at 7 p.m. in the library program room. In this inspired, genre-twisting new film, Oscar-nominated writer/director Sarah Polley, discovers that the truth depends on who’s telling it. Polley is both filmmaker and detective as

she investigates the secrets kept by a family of storytellers. She playfully interrogates a compelling cast of characters, eliciting candid, yet mostly contradictory, answers to the same questions. Polley unravels the paradoxes to reveal the essence of family: always complicated, warmly messy and fiercely loving.

Participants of the 2013 Tour de Cariboo pose for a group photo at the Cariboo Memorial Complex Saturday morning before heading out on the road to Gavin Lake for the 21st annual Big Brothers and Big Sisters event. This year’s Tour de Cariboo raised more than $45,000 for the local charity.

21st Tour de Cariboo another success Angie Mindus Staff Writer Men and women of all ages put their summer training to good use Saturday by participating in the 21st annual Big Brothers and Big Sisters Tour de Cariboo. The 75 km road ride, held as a fundraiser for the local charity, brought in more than $45,000 this year and attracted cyclists from near and afar to take part in the friendly competition. For Cher Sytsma, the tour meant fulfilling a longtime fitness goal to take part in the popular event. “It was on my bucket list,” the mother of three said Saturday morning, moments before the start of the race. “I said I would do this before I turned 40, which is next month, so today is the day.” First time Tour cyclist Amy Butler said it was the encouragement from the staff at Barking Spider Mountain Bikes who motivated her to take on the ride, and her

proud mom was there to support her. “I’m just so proud of her, she’s an inspiration,” said Patricia Butler. Local teen Sarah Austin was the youngest rider to take part in the event, at just 16 years old. But it was the more seasoned cyclists who showed everyone who’s boss with Dr. Ann Carter competing in the women’s over 50 category, but who was the fastest woman overall to finish with a time of 3:01:38. Former Cariboo North MLA Bob Simpson was in fine shape as he took the fastest time for the men’s over 50 category and in general with a time of 2:32:22. But it was wasn’t all about the times. The top three pledge earners were Tory Kier with $13,045, Dean McDonald with $2,385 and Patsy Kohnke with $2,200. For a full list of Tour de Cariboo race results and more rider photos check a future Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

We encourage everyone with youth soccer players as well as anybody who has an interest in volunteering to attend.

Racers thrill fans and volunteers Saturday with the first ever Crash to Pass trailer race Saturday afternoon at The Day of Destruction season wrap-up event at Thunder Mountain Speedway. Fans turned out in droves to say farewell to their favourite drivers for the season.

Speedway hosts Day of Destruction Angie Mindus photo

Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The checkered flag has dropped on another season at Thunder Mountain Speedway. On Saturday the staff at TMS hosted its final season points championship races, along with a spectacular crash to pass and the first ever trailer race, billed as a Day of Destruction. With head-to-head matchups in three racing divisions set to decide who would take home the year’s title, fans were treated to some exciting finishes. That said, this year’s final standings won’t be tallied until TMS’s year-end banquet on Oct. 26. Fast times in Saturday’s qualifying laps went to Gorden Bettles in the bone stock class, Marius Dunford in the pro-mini class and division leader Arnie Kunka in the street stock class. In the ‘A’ dash it was George Giesbrecht — in third heading into Saturday’s race — taking home the checkered flag in the bone stock division. Tim Roberts, meanwhile, was busy chipping away at division leader Allen Robert’s one-point lead heading into Saturday, winning his ‘A’ dash. And in the street

stock division ‘A’ dash it was Arnie, again, crossing the finish line in first place. Saturday’s heat races went to fourthplace’s Shawn Knott in the bone stock class, third place’s Tim Westwick in the street stock division and Roberts in the promini event. The main event, however, created some surprises as Allen, the division leader, rebounded from his previous races in the day to claim the checkered flag. Dunford, again, was solid in the main event — bringing home first place. And in the street stock main event it was Donny Kunka edging his dad, Arnie, to beat the field. Heading into Saturday Arnie held a ninepoint lead over Donny to lead the street stock division.

Following the season points championship the crash to pass cars let loose their mayhem, with Quesnel’s Jason Howlett outlasting three other drivers to win.

Hunting Season in the Cariboo

Hunting and trapping ethics It is extremely important for hunters and trappers to realize that they use a public resource! With this privilege it is vital to maintain a perception among the public that we hunt and trap in an ethical and humane manner. The majority of British Columbians support hunting and trapping to one degree or another, but there is a prevalent misunderstanding among the general public as to the role that hunters and trappers play in conservation and environmental stewardship. Fueling that misunderstanding are images and media reports of hunters and trappers who are at least perceived to be acting in a less than upstanding manner, or who disrespect the wildlife they pursue. It is important for all of us to remember not only the legal obligations, but also the unwritten rules of ethics that keep hunting a great sport. •Safety for yourself, your companions, and the public is the most important aspect of hunter training. Hunt-

ing accidents continue to be very rare because we all know that there is no room for recklessness at the expense of safety and courtesy. •Have respect for the sensitivities of others. Do not display your kill or firearms where it may offend other people. What may impress your friends may not have the same effect on your neighbours •Respect wildlife and the sanctity of the harvested animals’ lives. Strive to make every kill a clean one. Prepare your firearm in advance of, and during, the season to ensure accuracy and depend-ability. Practice your marks-

manship at a licensed firing range, and do not shoot unless you have a clear shot of a vital part of the animal. Remember: “you can’t pull the bullet back.” •Prepare the meat properly. Proper handling of meat is easy to learn and to not do so is both illegal and wasteful. • Respect the environment by packing out everything you packed in! Nobody wants to arrive at a campsite and clean up the mess left by the previous occupants. •Do not consume drugs or alcohol while hunting or trapping. •Respect private property. Always seek permission from land-

owners and thank them for the opportunities given. Unless explicitly stated, permission granted once does not entitle you to access the property on subsequent occasions. •Please respect gates, fences and equipment as they are there for a reason. Leave everything the way you found it. •Be the eyes and ears for the enforcement agencies and report those who break the law. Remember the RAPP program 1-877952-7277 (RAPP) or www.rapp.bc.ca. • Be aware that you are a mentor when

youth are observing. • Respect your fellow hunters. Work with one another to promote good relationships, safety, knowledge and a fair distribution of opportunity and harvest. •Lead by example, you are an ambassador for the public and media image of hunting. Ethical hunters and trappers are critical to effective and sustainable wildlife management, and to the ethical hunter we offer our sincerest gratitude; opportunities for the sustainable use of wildlife are possible because of you.

Hunting Season

in the Cariboo Deer hunting season in Canada

Fall 2013

When those that are new to the sport of hunting think of deer, the whitetail deer usually comes to mind first. It is one of the most commonly hunted of the big game and can be found in every one of the Canadian Provinces. The big whitetails are typically found in the northern regions where size matters when it comes to survival. The further south one goes, the smaller the deer get. Most hunters are looking for the big trophy rack. In order to find big deer with monster racks hunters must hunt where the whitetail deer are permitted to live long enough lives so they can develop the monster antlers. Alberta province is well known as the best chance for hunters of whitetail deer trophy antlers to achieve their goal. Here the whitetail grows large though many other provinces as well as some of the United States have been seeing bucks that are larger than in the past. About the Whitetail Rack There are a few factors that come into play when we talk about rack size. A buck needs to have an adequate supply of minerals and food that not only supports growth of the antlers, but their body as well. Genetics also has a role in the size of a buck’s antler as does his age. Bucks usually sport their biggest ant-

lers during their fourth or fifth year. They don’t grow a good set of antlers until their third year when their body is finished growing. Once a buck has his sixth birthday, his teeth become worn and subsequently are unable to process food the way he did when he was younger. The rack of the deer goes downhill from there. Hunters need to seek out provinces where a whitetail deer can have the chance to reach his fifth year if he is looking for the best trophy. Mule Deer in Canada The second most popular deer hunted in Canada is the mule deer. Mule deer are found in the northwestern Canadian provinces. Often hunters can find a good number of mule deer where whitetail deer can be found. The mule deer is said to have received his name because of the size of his ears. The mule deer is typically larger than whitetails and tend to inhabit higher regions if at all possible. Hunters usually use the same methods that they use for hunting whitetail, but to be successful, most seasoned hunters use the technique of spot and stalk. Canadian Antelope Those that are interested in hunting the Canadian Antelope must do so in the southern regions of Saskatchewan and Alberta. Though the population of antelope is relatively

small in those areas, those that hire outfitters usually have a high rate of success. It is typical for hunters to stalk antelope when they are hunting for mule deer. Antelope do not have antler racks like other deer species; instead they have a horn that is shaped like a lyre. The horn of a male pronghorn antelope can grow to a length of up to twenty inches and it typically has a short prong that juts upward and forward at half the length of the base. The pronghorn antelope is unusual because they shed their horn unlike other animals. Facts about the Canadian Red Deer The red deer of Canada boasts the distinction of being the largest of the wild animals in the country. A stag at maturity will stand approximately four feet at his shoulder. He can weigh as much as 300 pounds. Not only does he have a proud bearing, but he sports a magnificent set of antlers. They are long, spiky and hard. A red deer that sports antlers of approximately 36 inches is considered having a good trophy or head. Feral red deer usually don’t sport antlers with more than 14 points, but those that are captive bred have been known to have pointers of as many as twenty eight. Yearly in the months of March and April, they shed their antlers. See Page 16

Hunting Season in the Cariboo

Fall 2013

Best techniques when deer hunting

From Page 15 As soon as the old rack is shed, they begin growing a new set right away and by July they reach their maturity. Best Techniques when Deer Hunting Deer are smart and have an excellent sense of smell. One of the best methods for hunting deer is to scout before the hunting season so that the hunter can get to know the trails that are used and their feeding patterns. If you are scouting during hunting season, you are well advised to use scent spray so they cannot detect the smell of humans. Another piece of advice is not to walk the same trail repeatedly. Deer scare easily and if they become frightened by

frequent human invasion, they will move to other areas. Another popular method for stalking and hunting deer is to build a blind or a stand. Typically a stand is built in the trees and the hunter is out of sight of his prey. The scent of a hunter is better dispersed the higher he is as well. It is also recommended that when

hunting from a stand that camouflage clothing is worn so that the hunter blends in with the branches and leaves of the tree and his silhouette is not as obvious. The blind is built on the ground. Natural blinds are best using materials such as hay bales, brush and deadfalls. Pop up blinds have become popular especially among bow

hunters. King Buck Safaris This outfitter has lodges in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. They have claimed the prize of being responsible for a hunter bagging a typical 8X8 whitetail deer in the wild. Joe Lurch of Wall N.J. made the official kill. Experts say that bagging a deer of this size is extremely rare. So if you are looking for an outfitter that has a proven track record of aiding hunters in bagging big trophy deer, you may want to look into King Buck Safaris. Deer Hunting, Tourism and Economics In the past, people hunted deer for food and used almost every part of the deer for their

survival. Today, most hunters are hunting for the sheer pleasure of the hunt and are looking for antlers that can be mounted and boasted about. Though most hunters eat their kill, it is no longer a necessity. The deer hunting seasons are vital to many economies as hunters flood popular hunting areas. They hire guides, outfitters, buy supplies and rent lodges. They are an important source of income for many of the Canadian provinces. Hunting is not just grabbing a gun or a bow. It is a complex sport that requires patience, perseverance and a number of skills so that a hunter can kill an intelligent animal that is swift on its feet.

Hunting Season

in the Cariboo How to choose your first compound bow For anyone wanting to break into the awesome world of archery, there can be an overwhelming learning curve when it comes to choosing the right bow. These days, most new bowhunters start with a modern compound bow, which is relatively easy to master and simple to tune. And with the help of modern sights, arrow rests and releases, a beginner should be able to shoot consistent groups in a relatively short period of time. Once you’ve mastered the compound, it’s natural to eventually want to try a recurve for other more challenging form of archery, but a compound bow is what most beginners should opt for. Here’s what you need

to know to choose just the right model for you. Shoot for comfort If you’re not familiar with modern bows, arrows and accessories, the associated technical jargon can make it difficult to compare equipment, let alone know what it is you even need. Do you want parallel or split limbs? Is a forged or machined riser better? Is carbon or aluminum the way to go? There are so many different questions, most new archers simply opt for the same set-ups their more experienced buddies use. Try to avoid this, as what’s good for your buddy won’t necessarily be good for you, the beginner. You can take some relief in knowing that all new compound bows will meet your demands, although some are designed for experienced archers

looking for more speed and specifics. For the novice, the most important thing to consider is how well the bow fits and how comfortable it is to shoot. The best bow to start with will be relatively easy to draw and hold at full draw. If you need to strain to draw, or the string wants to jump out of your release at full draw, it’s not the bow for you. Certainly don’t start with a heavy draw weight— with today’s bow technology, you don’t even need to. Comfort and stability are the most important considerations. In the end, something as simple as how the bow feels in your hand can be the most important decision in your first purchase. The more relaxed and confident you are with the equipment, the easier it will be to master the sport. Test the market To find the bow

that’s best for you, set your price limit and start looking, taking the time to shoot several different makes and models before making a final purchase. This will also help you begin to develop your archery muscles, as well as the proper shooting form. If you go to an archery shop that won’t let you shoot a bow on its shelf, you aren’t in the right store. Most shop owners are very knowledgeable, and they’ll help you set up and compare equipment. There isn’t any one shop that carries all the different archery brands, however, so make your rounds and take your time making a decision. Be fussy and try them all. After you shoot several bows, you’ll find one that naturally lines up to quickly acquire the target. It will just feel right, and stand out above the rest.

If the ideal bow is out of your price range, don’t be afraid to keep looking—you’ll be surprised at the number of inexpensive, easy-to-shoot bows on the market. There are also some great package deals for new bowhunters, complete with bow, sights, rests, quiver and arrows—the perfect option for determining whether archery is, indeed, your game. Tip: When you buy a new compound bow, keep in mind you’ll want to grow with it. That is to say, make sure the bow’s draw weight and draw length is adjustable. That way, you can always take things up a notch as your strength and form improve. This is particularly important for younger shooters as they grow and become more familiar with their bow. from Outdoor Life

Hunting Season

in the Cariboo Take care of your game meat

Fall 2013

Dillon Alberts with his first grouse, got it in a tree with one shot.

For many people the opportunity to dine on flavourful wild meat is one of the prime benefits of hunting. Others, out of sorry past experience consider game meat quite unpalatable. Which will it be: gourmet or “gamey?” the difference depends much less on the skill of the qualified butcher who may cut the steaks and roasts for your table than it does on the care you take as a hunter in your initial treatment of the carcass. The basic rules: •Place your shot carefully for a quick, clean kill with little damaged meat. •Clean the animal as soon as possible.

BIG NEWS... to serve you better

•Keep the meat free of hair, dirt and other contaminants.

•Cool the carcass down and keep it cool. Don’t expose

it to heat from a car motor, fumes or road dust.

The fall spread will do many things to make a hardier healthier stand. The timing of a fall spread is important. It should be after you notice that the top growth has slowed and while the ground is still warm. It is during this time that the plants are now actively working hard to send nutrients to the root system. By feeding them now you will create a lawn that has that nice dark colour late into the season, and will green up earlier in the spring because of the added energy to the roots. It will create healthier root systems that will help your lawn in the stresses of next summer.

Of the 13 zones competing at the Games, the North Central Zone finished seventh with 124 medals (52 gold, 43 silver, 29 bronze). First place went to the Fraser Valley — one of the largest zones population-wise — with 403 medals (168 gold, 139 silver and 96 bronze). For Williams Lake athletes, a pair of Williams Lake Golf and Tennis Club members, Alex Wasylenko and Arnie Zimmerman, medalled at the Games. Wasylenko brought home a gold medal in the ages 70-74 category winning the Low Gross. “I was happy with how I played in both

rounds,” Wasylenko said. “The event was very well organized and there was good competitions — it was a pleasure to participate.” Wasylenko and Zimmerman played their first rounds at Sun Rivers Golf Resort and their second rounds at the Rivershore Golf Links. Zimmerman, meanwhile, won a silver medal in the ages 75-79 category coming runner up in the Low Gross. “The first day golfing at Sun Rivers the heat was incredible — it must’ve been about 40 degrees outside,” Zimmerman said. “It was a great event and very well run.” Both golfers have previously participated in the B.C. Seniors Games but this is the first year either of them have won a medal. In soccer, Williams Lake’s Norm Prevost and Ian Hughes joined a combined team of Prince George and Kamloops players to win a bronze medal in the men’s 65-plus division. Williams Lake’s Leo Rankin, Bryan Chubb, Jim Johnston and Marlene Johnston blazed up the track at the TCC combining for 14 medals. Rankin, in the men’s 60-64 division, won gold medals in the 1,500-metre

Reader Clarence Moore submitted an exercise for people over 60, suggesting it was good for a giggle.  Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.  With a five-pound potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.  Each day you’ll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer. After a couple

of weeks, move up to 10-pound potato bags.  Then try 50-pound potato bags and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-pound potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. (Clarence is at this level). After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag. Blanche Landry said she was willing to try the exercise with potatoes in the bag. Holding up two five-pound bags she said she’d have no problems lifting 10-pound bags.

You can take the man out the country but you can’t take the country out of the man, just ask our cover cowboy Len LeBlanc. LeBlanc has spent his life ranching, but has made the transition into town in recent years. LeBlanc shows no signs of leaving his ranching roots behind though, with his seasonal summertime job as a day rider for Roberts Ranching and winters spent rodeoing and riding in Arizona. We caught up with LeBlanc competing at the Harvest Ranch Rodeo last weekend, where he rode for the Roberts Ranch team with his prized horse Scooter. “I do it because I love it,” LeBlanc says of continuing to work. “I just love horses.”

Seniors Activity Centre starts a new season Win Gooding Special to The Tribune The fall season is fast approaching and activities at the Seniors’ Activity Centre are beginning. I hope everyone had an enjoyable summer with family and friends. I managed to visit family in Kelowna, Vancouver and Campbell River, and enjoyed every minute I was away. The weather has certainly co-operated, which was a huge plus. The Senior’s Centre opened on Tuesday, Sept. 3 and the kitchen renovations are completed and a joy to behold.

The kitchen volunteers will be thrilled with the new cabinets, counters, flooring and paint job. The new design makes the working area so much more convenient with the storage more accessible. Drop in for lunch and have a look around. You will be pleasantly surprised. Congratulations to all the seniors who won medals at the B.C. Senior Summer games held in Kamloops this past August. Keep up the good work. The regular monthly OAPO meeting is happening today, Thursday, Sept. 12 at 2 p.m. at the Seniors’ Activity

Centre. New members are always welcome so please plan to come and bring a friend. The OAPO fall pancake breakfast at the Seniors Activity Cen-

tre will be on Saturday, Oct. 5 from 8:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. so mark your calendar and plan to bring a friend or the family for this tasty breakfast. Until next month.

Mary Telfer fair grand aggregate winner LeRae Haynes Special to The Tribune The grand aggregate winner at the 2013 Williams Lake Harvest Fair was Mary Telfer, pictured here with event MC Michelle LaPlace. Telfer received the highest points in the most categories, stating that she won the award in 2012, but that this year was truly a surprise. Telfer has been a volunteer at the Harvest Fair for many years as a director and as secretary. “Looking around it’s wonderful to see all the kids’ entries we had this year,” she said. “It’s great to see them coming up behind us.” Other high point winners were as follows. Cut Flowers: Cheryl Procter. Floral Art: Cheryl Procter. Potted Plants: Margret Menzies. Vegetables: Jane Cameron Canning: Cheryl Procter Baking: Darline Pauselius Needlework: Shirley Pascas Quilting: Shirley Pascas Knitting and Crochet: Darline Pauselius Seniors: Linda Hanson Arts and Crafts: Mary Telfer Pre-Junior Children: Payton Destree Junior Children: Addyson Cullum.

Thursday, Sept 12 Library film night The Williams Lake Library will show the film Stories We Tell directed by Sarah Polley tonight, Thursday, Sept. 12 starting at 7 p.m. in the library program room. In this inspired, genre-twisting new film, Oscar®-nominated writer/director Sarah Polley, discovers that the truth depends on who’s telling it. Polley is both filmmaker and detective as she investigates the secrets kept by a family of storytellers. She playfully interrogates a compelling cast of characters, eliciting candid, yet mostly contradictory, answers to the same questions. Polley unravels the paradoxes to reveal the essence of family: always complicated, warmly messy and fiercely loving.

Shirley Pascas needlework high point winner LeRae Haynes Special to The Tribune Winner of the 2013 Williams Lake Harvest Fair needlework, sewing and quilting high point awards was Shirley Pascas, a long-time quilter and member of the Cariboo Piecemakers quilting club. Pascas says she is an “art quilter” and that her process is a little different from other kinds of quilting. She adds that some of her pieces are abstract and may have very little symmetry. “I start with a sort of pattern in my head, working with the fabric itself, putting colours up on the wall to see if they work and changing them around,” Pascas says. There were 90 quilt entries in the 2013 Williams Lake Harvest

COMMUNITY NOTEBOOK

Fair, a number higher than last year and more than doubled in the past two years. Pascas said the youngest quilters this year were under 12 years old. “I’m so glad to see kids quilting and want to see them carry it on,” Pascas says. “Hopefully they’ll be inspired by what we do, and can inspire us.” New quilters are always welcome at Cariboo Piecemakers at the Cariboo Arts and Culture Society in Williams Lake (778-4129044) and Ibea’s Quilting and Crafts Galore (250-392-7748) offers quilting classes to the public.

Art Walk 2013 wraps up on a high note Sage Birchwater Special to The Tribune The Downtown Williams Lake Business Improvement Area (BIA) wrapped up its 2013 Artwalk and Sale on an upbeat note last Saturday, Sept. 7. My Wife’s Quartet provided some musical ambience in the Station House Gallery for the gala event celebrating the artists and merchants who participated in the month-long exhibit. This was the seventh year that the BIA has hosted the affair showcasing the city’s downtown businesses and the region’s artists. Willie Dye, in the guise of Arty the Artwalker, did the tireless legwork to make this year’s Artwalk a success. It was bigger and better this year, he says, estimating that close to 75 artists showcased their work in 56 locations around the city’s downtown. “This year there were nine more locations for artists to display their work than last year, and 20 artists who had never been in Artwalk before,” Dye says. “There were more artists, more merchants, more diversity of art, and more communities represented than ever before.” Artists from Bella Coola, Quesnel, 100 Mile House, Merritt, Kamloops, Horsefly and Williams Lake had their work in this year’s Artwalk. Dye told the gala that the beauty of Artwalk is how it brings three diverse communities together: the business community, the artistic community, and the general public.

Davis says the chance to mix with and meet the other artists from around the region at the wind-up gala at is always a treat for him. “Being an artist in Williams Lake can be kind of lonely. It’s nice to have that time to get together with other artists and talk art.” Now a fulltime artist, Davis says one of the special attributes of Artwalk is the opportunity it offers emerging artists wanting to show their work for the first time. “Where else can firsttime artists display their work? It’s very difficult. Any recognition helps an artist. It’s amazing how many artists are having their work shown for the first time in the Artwalk. It helps artists get over the intimidation of a show in a gallery.” At the conclusion of the gala, Arty the Artwalker (Willie Dye) announced the winners of various categories and handed out prizes. Wen-

dy Pare of Lac la Hache won the grand prize twoday golfing getaway to Sun Peaks. The most popular artist decided by the artwalkers themselves was first-time participant, Dawn McAmmond. Her watercolours were displayed at BFF Fashions on Oliver Street. Second most popular artist was Reva Schick with her display of dolls at J&E Gifts and Treasures on Oliver Street. Jeanie Herron, who displayed her graphite, acrylic and photography work at the Sandman Inn, received the third highest number of favourite artist votes. Honourable mention went to Geoff Bourdon and Liz Twan. The most popular merchant voted by participants was Eloquent Spa and Salon, followed by About Face & More, and Woodland Jewellers. Dwayne Davis paid $325 as the highest bidder for the Ed Deak painting, Big Sky at Big Lake, donated by the artist as a fundraiser for the Station House Gallery. “I always wanted an Ed Deak painting,” Davis concluded.

New Fire Chief in Williams Lake Former Williams Lake Fire Department Fire Inspector and Deputy Fire Chief Des Webster assumed his new role as Director of Protective Services and Fire Chief this week, following the retirement of Randy Isfeld. Webster joined the Williams Lake Fire Department (WLFD) in 1994 as a paid on call fire fighter, and started full time as Fire Inspector with the rank of Captain. He was promoted to Assistant Chief in 2006 and to Deputy Chief in 2008. He was hired as the Director of Protective Services this summer. “Most people strive to retire at the pinnacle of their career, I am no different,” Webster says. “However, to be able to fulfill that aspiration within my home department, where I have spent my whole career, is an added bonus.” Isfeld joined the WLFD in 1976, and was a volunteer firefighter for 10 years before joining the department full-time. He has been Fire Chief since 2008. “I’ve had a tremendous career with the fire department,” Isfeld says. “The members and the staff are like family, and I will miss working with them every day.” “I know I speak for Council and the whole city when I say a heartfelt thank you to Randy for his years of dedicated service to the people of Williams Lake,” says Mayor Kerry Cook. “His resiliency, leadership, and commitment to excellence have been extraordinary. “We are very proud to have Des Webster as our new Director of Protective Services. The safety of city residents has always been his number one priority, and I know he will continue the long and proud tradition of our devoted fire chiefs.”

Summer student heads back to school Tara Sprickerhoff Tribune Staff Writer Well Williams Lake, it’s been quite a summer. In the midst of all the changes and challenges the city has faced over the past four months, it’s been quite the experience to work with my colleagues here at the Tribune. I’ve had the opportunity to cover everything from opening rallies for the New Prosperity Mine, to the closing of Glendale Elementary School, right down to day-to-day happenings of life in the lakecity. One of my first days on the job I found myself in a school board meeting, watching as the trustees debated changing the name of the school I graduated from. Later that week I sat in a coffee shop listening to a woman tell me the story of how

she escaped from near death at the hands of the Ethiopian army. It’s hard to believe all the things that have happened this summer in Willie’s Puddle. The people of Williams Lake have incredible stories. That’s

my dorm room in Ottawa, the day before classes start. It’s exciting starting a new year of school. Tomorrow I will take my first radio class, a form of journalism I am entirely unfamiliar with. Hopefully I can take with me the lessons learned from my work this summer. It’s been an incredi-

ble four months discovering Williams Lake from an entirely new point of view, and I’d like to thank everyone who helped me along, those who let a newbie from the local paper ask them all sorts of questions and everyone here at the Tribune who showed me the ropes. See you next time.
