Gentles preliminary hearing begins Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Friends and family poured into the largest courtroom in Williams Lake Tuesday for the second day of testimony at the preliminary hearing of Martin W. Gentles. Gentles is charged with dangerous driving causing death,
dangerous driving causing bodily harm, impaired driving causing death, causing an accident resulting in death, impaired driving causing bodily harm, causing an accident resulting in bodily harm, and failure to stop at the scene of an accident. The charges stem from an incident that occurred on April 22, 2012 on Carson Drive in
Williams Lake where Rayel MacDonald was killed and her friend Alysha Mullet was seriously injured. The three-day preliminary hearing, which began Monday in Williams Lake Provincial Court, will be used to determine whether the case will go to trial.

NEWS First Nations ban moose hunt in south Chilcotin Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The Yunesit’in Band Council declared a ban on the remaining limited entry moose hunt in the South Chilcotin, effective Friday, Oct. 4. “The band council has prepared moose monitors at each bridge periodically that will affect areas M.U. 5-03, 5-04, 5-05. Affected communities may follow suit,” the band said in a press release issued Thursday evening, Oct. 3. Moose monitors will enforce the band by turning away all ATVs and similar off-road vehicles. First Nations hunters
Russell Myers Ross will be advised to take only bull moose and no more than one moose will be allowed. LEH hunters will be turned away and informational pamphlets will be handed out to local residents and others. “There are larger issues with respect to the
reasons for the moose decline, such as damage to the ecosystem,” Yunesit’in Chief Russell Myers Ross said. “However, there are immediate conservation needs. We do not feel like the province is taking us or this issue seriously. It will take decades for the moose to recover to the state they were a few years ago.” The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations is approaching the issue cautiously. “Although we do not know of any active blockades at this time, the situation is fluid and we ask forestry workers, backcountry
There are larger issues with respect to the reasons for the moose decline, such as damage to the ecosystem.”
- Russel Myers Ross recreation users and First Nations alike to be respectful to each other in the woods,” the ministry said in an emailed statement Monday evening. “The ministry has made considerable effort to ensure First Nations’ concerns with logging in the Chilcotin are addressed,” the statement said.
“This includes resource planning, which specifically addresses logging and road building to assist with moose recovery.” First Nations are not afraid of asserting their Aboriginal right to hunt, and “sometimes this means protecting that right in ways we feel justified, Tl’esqox (Toosey) Chief Fran-
cis Laceese said in the press release. The Yunesit’in council sent a letter to the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Resource Operations, on March 26, 2013, requesting a chance to meet and provide recommendations, Myers Ross said. “It’s my impression that we tried to reach out quite early on so that we would be part of the process, and we didn’t get the courtesy of a response at all,” he said. “I guess they figured it would be under the Tsilhqot’in National Government umbrella, but we felt they should be giving us the courtesy of a response by phone or anything.”
The communities have made a number of recommendations to the government for a number of years, but don’t feel they’ve had a voice, Myers Ross said. Moose populations in B.C. are managed by the province for social and ceremonial food uses for First Nations, through the Limited Entry Hunt (bulls only) for licensed hunters and through a quota system for non-resident guided hunts, the ministry said, adding all decisions are based on science and with a “conservation first” approach. For 2013, the province reduced resident hunter opportunity in the area by 35 per cent.
Officers put down four black bears in two days Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Conservation officers in Williams Lake put down a black bear near Cataline Elementary School Friday morning after receiving complaints a bear was 80 feet up in a tree in someone’s backyard.
“We started getting complaints about 7:30 a.m. about a bear running around just before school started,” conservation officer Sgt. Len Butler said. “It had a pathway, had broken through a fence, and was probably going up and down the highway and
into the Fox Mountain area.” The bear weighed about 300 pounds and was a dry sow — without cubs — Butler said, suggesting it was unfortunate because she was a very healthy bear, probably full of crab apples and garbage.
Between the RCMP and the COS office there have been numerous complaints about bears breaking through fences, hanging around schools and getting a little too aggressive during the last month. Friday’s bear brings the total to at least six
bears being put down this season within the city limits. Three bears were disposed of near Hodgson Road above Chilcotin Road elementary school on Thursday, Butler said. “It’s the same problem, they’re getting into garbage,” he insisted. “I know there
are a couple more bears hanging around Hodgson and Roberts Roads, but people are leaving their garbage out.” Spring and summer were quiet in Williams Lake, but once the berries were done, it was anticipated the bears would move into town,
he added. “ U n fo r t u n at e ly people are not being diligent with their garbage,” Butler said. “Some people get hit once and realize they need to clean up, but other times we’re getting told it’s too much of an inconvenience to put garbage away.”
Fraser Basin Council works to expand sustainability understanding Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Promoting sustainability is a key focus of the Fraser Basin Council, chair Charles Jago told the Cariboo Regional District board Friday. “We do this by working across jurisdictions with representatives from federal government, provincial government, regional government and First Nations,” Jago said. “All orders of government are given equivalent status and recognition.”
During the last year the council has worked hard to expand its understanding of the social dimensions of sustainability. It’s been an interesting exercise because it’s easy to define economic and environmental sustainability, but it is not as easy to look at the social dimensions of sustainability, he said. The 38-member FBC board operates on the basis of consensus and represents multi-interests — people who are environmentalists and people who are indus-

works to build consensus within society. Building consensus does not lead to paralysis. The board gets things done, he insisted. “We face tough issues, make decisions and move forward.” Funding comes from all levels of government and in the Cariboo region, $12,500 is contributed to the council, for a return of over $350,000 in investment. “That’s a conservative estimate,” Jago said. Last Thursday the council met with Chief
Justice Bruce Cohen for a “lively give and take,” discussion on Fraser River salmon. In the afternoon the board met with a provincial government official who is drafting the Water Act modernization. “That was a workshop where we had significant input on how that led to legislation,” Jago said. The board is often called into facilitate meetings and find the basis for resolving issues and sometimes it’s possible, sometimes it is not.
“We try to help groups solve issues,” Jago said. Presently the board is half way through its most recent strategic plan, which has four critical goals. They include climate change and air quality, healthy watersheds and water resources, building sustainable resilient communities and having a strong council. Area C director John Massier represents the CRD on the FBC and said it’s an incredible experience to be in a room with 40 board members.

Cariboo Regional District Area L director Bruce Rattray (left) and Area D director Deb Bischoff weigh in on Medical Marijuana concerns for the region after a presentation from RCMP Insp. Warren Brown.
CRD looks to RCMP for input on legal grow-ops Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Williams Lake RCMP Insp. Warren Brown sees a legitimate need for medical marijuana, but warns marijuana grow-ops are the jet fuel for organized crime. “It’s been our observation that regardless of what colour the elephant is, organized crime is nearby,” Brown told the Cariboo Regional District board Friday. During recent months, the CRD board has been debating whether to rezone area to accomodate the changing legislation around medical marijuana grow-ops. On Friday the board invited Brown to aid in the discussion. It is very apparent there is a legitimate purpose for medical marijuana for people who are ill, and a necessity to have it produced within Canada, Brown said.
“What’s being proposed by the federal government is probably the safest recommendation that’s available.
- Warren Brown
“What’s being proposed by the federal government is probably the safest recommendation that’s available.” However, whether a medical marijuana grow-op zone should exist 10 miles from the police station or an hour from the police station, Brown said he does not have a real informed opinion. As of Oct. 1, people have been able to make applications to run a legal grow-op, and that application does involve an enhanced security clearance. But Brown’s staff is telling him they don’t think many applications
will come forward from residents in the region. Area L director Bruce Rattray said the CRD’s interest is on the land use planning side. So far the CRD has been looking at the idea of a restricted number of locations where grow-ops could actually take place, ensuring those locations were relatively removed from residential areas, and had a number of setbacks from neighbouring homes. “Discussions have leaned toward industrial areas,” Rattray said. Brown said in order to be approved, the licensee has to demonstrate
to Health Canada they have met very stringent standards and security requirements. “I don’t think we need to over think this too much. There’s one of two options — agriculture or industrial. Industrial because of the business aspect and agricultural because it’s for growing. If you’re going to grow marijuana or tomatoes, you’re in an agricultural area.” Whether or not it’s near residential, Brown said he’s been told part of the security involves filters to protect the atmosphere. “I would prefer that the medical grow-ops
are on commercial or agriculture licensed areas,” Area D director Deb Bischoff said. “I think it’s better to have them contained to specific areas.” Area F director Joan Sorley said her main concern is safety. “When it blows up is it going to be the CRD’s responsibility to enforce?” she asked. “Our bylaw enforcement office is overstretched now as it is.” 100 Mile House mayor Mitch Campsall is concerned the criminal aspect isn’t very far away, he said. “I worry it’s going to restrict them, cost them and they are going into becoming illegal,” Campsall said. “I know some licenses are good and some licenses are bad, and I feel sorry for the people who are doing it the right way for the right reasons.”
Foul play not suspected in woman’s disappearance Foul play is not suspected in the case of missing 21-year-old, Caitlin Murray from Quesnel, RCMP said Tuesday. “Caitlin was last seen on video surveillance on Sept. 30 at approximately 12:45
a.m. walking on to the Fraser River footbridge. Quesnel RCMP, Quesnel Search and Rescue and RCMP Air Services have searched the immediate area including the footbridge, the Fraser River, sur-
rounding parks and riverbanks, the RCMP said. Police investigation and search efforts to date have met with negative results and have been unable to locate Murray. The RCMP said aer-
ial search efforts will continue periodically in attempts to provide answers to the family who still remain hopeful. “RCMP have followed up on a number of tips and determined that the last known
sighting of Caitlin was captured on video surveillance of her walking on to the footbridge. She was by herself at that time. There is no indication to suggest that Murray’s disappearance is linked to foul play.”

Land reserve needs protecting

ritish Columbians, indeed people anywhere, need to eat. Relatively few of us worry about where our food comes from. Most of us buy it from stores and our main concern is the price. There is a fast-growing movement to buy local food, but our production is limited. Many things we think we need can’t be grown locally, yet, anyway. Besides, only about about five per cent of the B.C. land base is productive farmland and B.C. is a long way from being self-sufficient foodwise. The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Facilities is currently undertaking a review French of provincial Connection services. Diana French Although t h e r e were reviews of the Agricultural Land Commission and Land Reserve already (Auditor General, 2010, ALC Chair, 2011) the agencies are on this review agenda. Judging from some comments he made recently, some fear the minister in charge of the review, Honourable Bill Bennett, has both on his hit list. The legislation protecting agricultural land was introduced amidst tremendous opposition by the NDP government in the early 70s. It was by no means perfect. Good land was left out, poor land included, and the impact on some owners of farmland left a lot to be desired. However, the legislation has protected a lot of farmland, and chipping away at it doesn’t bode well for our future good supplies. Because I like to eat, I support the ALR and ALC. Sure they could be improved, but in favour of farms and farmers, not developers, there are alternatives for developers. I am not hopeful though. Too many People in Power (PIPs) consider those who are concerned about the future of our land and water to be alarmists, people-against almost-everything, even eco-terrorists. It was short notice to present to the review panel here yesterday, but there is still a chance for input, written submissions will be accepted until Oct. 16. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Hats off to Gavin Lake This area has a real gem in its midst, and it’s called the Gavin Lake Forest Education Centre. For years now the Gavin Lake Forest Education Society and its board of directors has been enabling hundreds, maybe even thousands of our area’s youth to learn about the outdoors where they should — outdoors. The centre is a year-round camp featuring many school programs where students learn, play and explore in its wilderness setting. At about this time every year some lucky Grade 6 students from across the district make the annual pilgrimage to Gavin Lake with sleeping bags in hand and pillows under arms. The trip is an all-expenses paid, threeday journey where students sleep in cabins by night and partake in modules during the day such as Camping 101, The Perfect Stream, Archery, Compass Course and Wetlands to name a few. The camp teaches other valuable lessons as well, such as having good manners and picking and cleaning up after yourself, not to mention being taught how not to waste food or throw recyclables in the garbage. For some students and parents Gavin Lake is often those first overnight steps
away from home, and for some, a first introduction into enjoying the outdoors. For many of the students Grade 6 camp is also about making memories. It is that last tender year or two before becoming a teen. As far as we know Gavin Lake is the only free camp left of its kind in the province. The folks running the camp strongly believe in providing the service free of charge so that all schools and students, regardless of their demographics and economic circumstance, have an equal opportunity to participate. These types of important facilities don’t run themselves. It is through the hard work and dedication of its members, board of directors and camp director/manager Mike Tudor that make experiences like Gavin Lake possible. These dedicated people have managed with great success to steer the camp through tough economic times and are going as strong as ever with their vision of educating youth so we can have a sustainable, healthy environment into the future. Congratulations are in order to the society as well as the many local businesses and private citizens who make Gavin Lake possible. Thanks for the memories.

Case not closed on ongoing climate change Editor: Has global warming actually stopped? It would be really good news if the climate-change contrarians are correct. Tom Fletcher, in his weekly column, claims that the IPCC has admitted that global warming has stopped in the last 16 years. Alan Trenzek spouted the same rhetoric in a recent letter to the editor. Case closed? Not so fast! The IPCC report does indeed show that the warming since 1998 is less projected. However, when you pick another 15-year period (19922006), the actual warming exceeds the average projections. This shows that random natural variability has a significant impact on climate over the short term (15 years or less). However, long-term trends (which average out the shortterm effects) clearly support
the evidence for ongoing global surface warming well within the range of IPCC projections. The IPCC is partly to blame for the misinformation that global warming has stopped. Last year, they leaked an early draft before it had been thoroughly checked over for errors. In that draft, they aligned projections to the year 1990, an exceptionally warm year. They should have aligned the projections to a baseline of 10 to 15 years since projections average out the effects of natural variability. They fixed this error when the final draft was released last week. Global warming unfortunately hasn’t stopped nor have its consequences gone unnoticed (e.g. warming and acidification of the oceans). So what will you and I and our elected representatives do about it? Will we choose to be wise stewards of the earth rather than do little or nothing at all?
Will the likes of Al Gore adjust their extravagant lifestyles and put their money where their mouth is? The future will tell.

Share your ideas on liquor laws At the beginning of August, our government began a review of our province’s liquor laws. The last time B.C. held a comprehensive review of liquor policy was 1999, and as times change, it’s important that we adjust our laws to keep them in line with our values. When it comes to alcohol, we always need to make sure that we keep a healthy balance between economic and social interests and the need to ensure safety and the best interest of the public. That’s why it’s important to listen to stakeholders and to the general public, and to consider their ideas and opinions as we think about changes to our liquor laws. That’s why the guiding principles of the review include ensuring that government revenue is maintained or in-

Initially the ministry will refine the role of rural development so that Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett, as parliamentary secretary for rural development, can continue her work around rural issues. “We’ll be meeting with local governments and beetle action coalitions to look at all the work they’ve done with the Rural B.C. project,” Thomson said. “The work they’ve done on creating successful regional development.” The plan is to build
on the successes they have already achieved, he added. When asked about the Annual Allowable Cut for the region, Thomson said the inventories for the region are still being done. “I think that’s also one of the reasons why our ministry is a key focus in rural development because we will be working with industry and local governments as the industry continues to address the issues of the midterm timber supply.” Barnett said she thinks having a minister responsible for rural B.C. will only benefit the province.

What is Electrolysis? Electrolysis can be performed on all body parts, head to toe, and is effective on all hair colours and skin types. Electrolysis involves the use of a thin filament, a tiny wire, that is slid into the natural opening of the hair follicle. A current is applied sterilizing the area so that the blood supply can no longer stimulate the hair to grow.

School district enrolment down 137 students Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer School District 27 enrolment numbers have been finalized. As of Sept. 30 Superintendent Mark Thiessen says enrolment in the district stands at 4,833 students. “We are down 137 students from last year,” Thiessen says. “This number is slightly below what we were projecting to lose, so
Mark Thiessen that is good news in a way. “However, as we remain in funding pro-
tection and will actually lose 1.5 per cent of our funding protection again this year, this does not mean any new funding for the district.” In other district news, Thiessen says the board is also considering a return to the former secondary school names in Williams Lake. Reconsideration comes after the board received a request from a delegation appearing before
the board at its regular meeting in September. The board also received a letter asking for the return of the old names, Thiessen says. “The board has agreed to review the naming of both campuses at its next meeting,” Thiessen says. “The board gave no indication if the name would actually change or if considered, what those names might be.” In consultation with
the public the secondary school names in Williams Lake were changed this year to reflect the amalgamation of the two former grades 8 to 12 secondary schools into one grades 7 to 12 school operated on two campuses. The former names were Columneetza and Williams Lake secondary schools. The new combined school name is Lakecity Second-

Stress part of life for parents and children Children flourish when they know they are loved and cared for, feel they belong and are approved of, and know they can succeed, says Mark Thiessen, School District 27 superintendent. “Parents play a key role in helping a child flourish, a role that involves protecting the child from experiencing too much stress for too long,” Thiessen. In efforts to help parents and their children adapt to a new and changing school year,
Thiessen provides the following information about stress that has been adapted from the Psychology Foundation of Canada. Things to know: • Stress is part of life. Stress is a normal human response to daily hassles and challenges, and a certain amount of it actually helps us feel alert, energized and interested in life. • Coping with stress is essential to survival. We all need to learn how to cope with stress in order to survive and
thrive in the world. How we learn to cope with stress in childhood influences our capacity for resilience and effective stress management throughout our lives. • Stress is hard to hide. A child may show signs of stress with their body (headaches, stomachaches, sleep problems, illness), their mind (poor concentration, forgetfulness, difficulty problem solving), their emotions (fear, anxiety, frustration, sadness, anger, oversensitivity), and
their behaviours (nailbiting, daydreaming, fighting with others, being overly cautious, bullying, having difficulty calming down). • Too much stress for too long — without support from a caring adult to mediate the impact — can affect a child’s developing brain and immune system, and cause problems with learning, memory and self- regulation. This is especially true when the stress is related to unhappy or difficult experiences
that are beyond a child’s control, such as ongoing conflict between yourself and them, a serious illness or death in the family, or unrealistic expectations or demands placed upon them, or that they place upon themselves. - Adapted from the Psychology Foundation of Canada

NEWS Charges laid in theft, weapons and drug offences Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer
A 36-year-old male and a 49-year-old female have been released on bail and are awaiting court appearances after being charged for possession of stolen property, firearms possession and storage offences, and possession of Methamphetamine, the Williams Lake RCMP said Friday. On Aug. 31, through information received from the public, Williams Lake RCMP en-
tered a property in 150 Mile House located on a side road off Highway 97 with a search warrant looking for stolen property. As a result of the search, police recovered an antique pickup truck, firearms, four quads, a motocross dirt bike, several power saws, welders, a large air compressor, water pump, kayak, bicycles, snowboards, snowblower, drugs and numerous other items. Many of the items recovered by police have been returned to
owners, however, the RCMP are hoping to identify the owners of the remaining items. “I think most of the property returned has been to people inside of Williams Lake,” Const. Black of the Williams Lake detachment said Friday. “The kayak came from a camp that was down south somewhere.” Unclaimed items are two mountain bikes – one red, one gold — an air compressor, water pump, snow blade for a quad, snowboards,
welders and chainsaws. Anyone who may have lost any of these items and can identify them is asked to contact either Corp. Pole or Const. Black at the Williams Lake RCMP 250-392-6211.
“This offence was identified and a successful investigation recovered all this stolen property with the direct assistance of members of the public,” the RCMP noted in a press release.
“The Williams Lake RCMP would like to thank the people involved for their help in having the property, returned to its rightful owner. “If you have any knowledge of this of-
fence, or know who committed this offence, please call the Williams Lake RCMP at 250-392-6211, or Crimestoppers at 1 800-222-8477.” - with files from the RCMP

NEWS CRD endorses Williams Lake fringe area OCP The Cariboo Regional District’s new Williams Lake Fringe Official Community Plan was adopted during the board’s regular meeting Friday and is now in effect. Development of the fringe area official plan has been a collaborative process, including area residents, the City of Williams Lake, the Williams Lake Indian Band, provincial agen-
cies and other key stakeholders as vital contributors. This is the first official community plan for the Williams Lake fringe communities and outlines the Regional District’s long-term vision for the affected area. The plan serves to balance the social, environmental, and economic needs of the specified area.
This plan has some new tools to implement the overall vision which includes wildfire probability, Temporary Permits and Development Permit Areas (DPA). Temporary Permits may now be considered for uses of a limited duration in specific areas of the Williams Lake fringe area. Development Permit Areas include: aquatic habitat development
permit area, environmentally sensitive development permit area, geotechnical hazards development permit area, commercial/industrial development permit area, and multi-
family development permit area. New developments within identified DPAs will be required to submit an application to ensure the proposal complies with the plan.
This may require reports from qualified professionals and other submissions. To view the Williams Lake Fringe Area Official Community Plan, visit the CRD website
at cariboord.bc.ca. If you are planning a development, please review the plan and contact planning staff at zoning@cariboord. bc.ca for more information.

The annual Ryan Schonke Memorial Baseball tournament has provided the Williams Lake chapter of KidSport $21,500 in financial support over the past six years. This year the donation is for $2,000. KidSport provides funds to cover the cost of sport registration for kids who might not otherwise get the chance to play sports. The statistics are clear: a child involved in sport is likely to be a better student, is less likely to be a burden to the social justice system and will develop lifelong physical activity habits which reduce health care costs. The benefits to the child are immeasurable. Mark Bremner organizes this memorial

Cariboo ChilCotin Partners for literaCy Hen and beekeeping bylaws come into effect January 1st The City of Williams Lake has recently adopted bylaws to allow the keeping of hens (not roosters), as well as beekeeping on single family and two family residential properties. While this is an exciting opportunity for a number of residents, the City wishes to remind residents that certain regulations must be adhered to and procedures must be followed in order to proceed with these activities. 1. The bylaws enabling these activities are not to come into effect until January 1, 2014. Adoption was delayed to ensure that residents take the opportunity to properly prepare for these activities and acquire their animals only after they have fulfilled all requirements of and acquired the necessary license(s). 2. A license, similar to a dog license, is required prior to beginning the activity of hen or beekeeping. 3. The regulations are in place to ensure the safety and welfare of animals and their owners, as well as the continued comfort and enjoyment of living on neighbouring properties. The City will be preparing public education material, licensing procedural documents, and, possibly workshops to educate interested residents on how to develop suitable facilities and obtain licenses through the winter. If you are interested in being advised of such workshops, please contact Chris Hutton, Planning Technician at chutton@ williamslake.ca or (250) 392-1770.

Williams Lake Stampeders Greg Nickel (right) and Tyrel Lucas (left) battle in front of Lac La Hache netminder Willie Sellars and defenseman Drew Rose during Saturday’s Central Interior Hockey League season opener in Williams Lake.
Stamps stop Tomahawks in opener Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The line of Greg Nickel, Jassi Sangha and Tyrel Lucas combined for 16 points Saturday, leading the Williams Lake Stampeders to a 9-6 homeice win over the Lac La Hache Tomahawks in its Central Interior Hockey League season opener. On a night when close to 800 fans packed into the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex — many travelling from Lac La Hache to watch the game — Williams Lake held it together, protecting a 6-2 lead heading into the third period, long enough to thwart a late Tomahawks surge. Nickel lit the lamp three times and chipped in three assists to cap off a sixpoint performance in his first ever CIHL game, while Sangha setup five markers of his own and added a goal midway through the first period. Lucas, meanwhile, recorded a hat trick and assisted on Nickel’s first goal. Also scoring for Williams Lake in the win were Nathan Zurak (1-1-2) and Jose Reyes (1-0-1). For the Tomahawks
it was Wade Balbirnie leading the charge with two goals and an assist, while Kevin McNab (2-0-2), Drew Rose (1-1-2) and Wilfred Robbins (1-2-3) provided offense in the losing effort. The Stampeders peppered Lac La Hache netminder Willie Sellars with 41 shots on goal in Saturday’s contest. At the other end of the rink Williams Lake goaltender Justin Foote saw 38 shots fired on net. The Tomahawks opened Saturday’s game scoring two goals on its first three shots before Williams Lake took control notching six unanswered goals through 40 minutes of play. The Tomahawks stormed back in the third period, but ran out of time in the losing effort. In total, 68 minutes in penalties were recorded in the contest — 29 minutes for Lac La Hache and 39 minutes for Williams Lake. In other action around the CIHL the Kitimat Ice Demons opened its season with two wins at home. The Ice Demons doubled the Terrace River Kings 6-3 on Saturday before thumping the Quesnel Kangaroos 7-3 on Sunday.
The Stampeders continue its season this weekend, Oct. 12-13, on the road for a twogame set against the Terrace River Kings.

All eight entries were screened to the packed house, and people are already planning their entries for next year. “The Cariboo Mountain Bike Consortium is focused on two primary goals” said Justin Calof who was the MC for the evening. “We’ve focused on growing the mountain bike economy over the past few years, but this is our first major attempt to address our goal to grow mountain bike culture in the region. The partnership with the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society is one that we hope to grow alongside this festival” said Calof. Keaton Carruthers won the Best Mountain Bike Action category. “Super stoked,” Carruthers explained to the crowd. “I’d like to thank Dalton Anderson and the Feldingers for being my riding team, and to all the parents who supported us in the project.” Shawn Lewis won the Best Mountain Bike Storyline category with his film The Process. This video is about the process of building an authorized and legal trail in Williams Lake. Shawn Lewis, president of the Williams Lake Cycling Club and Justin Calof have spent the last five years working with the province of B.C. and trail builders to create a sustainable and functional process for trail building that encourages creativity and progression, at the same time as balancing the needs of other users of the land. This film was shot over the summer of 2013 as they

Sam Tudor won the Best Editing and Production category with an impressive film called Home — A Bike Film. Home is only a brief glimpse into the lives of three brothers who have been riding bikes since they were all knee high to a grasshopper. In documentary as well as classic bike film style, Home tries to capture the essence of what it means to live and ride in the Cariboo. The idea is that biking is a part of life here, not just a succession of epic backflips and stuff. It’s crashes and sometimes crutches and it’s still fun. The runners up for the film festival were also screened. Season was filmed and edited by Wes Gregg from Quesnel. A commentary on the role of adventure sport in the tourism economy, Wes presents a winter and summer perspective on the Cariboo. Jesse Hohert and Kurt Williams teamed up on two entries to the festival. The first was called S--t People Say in the Cariboo and is a statement on the riding cul-
ture in the region. The second was a short edit with their poodles and the pleasure of riding with your four legged friends. Leah Selk, executive director of the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society used the film festival as an opportunity to delivery an all time ‘smack down
taunt’ on Jane Wellburn. It all began in 2010 when Jane challenged the community to not only grow the largest pumpkin, but paddle it across Williams Lake as you delivered it to your competitors. Jane, having never even successfully grown a pumpkin was humbled
with Selk’s audacity and pumpkin growing prowess. “This is the most severe taunting I’ve ever been victim to. It’s a sad day for the Wellburns,” Jane said. Jane also submitted an edit of the Sprockids season and their Monday night rides. This ride is key to our sustainability as a mountain bike community as we foster the next generation of riders. We would like to thanks all who participated and supported this project. We hope to grow the festival over the years and grow mountain bike culture in the region and integrate mountain biking into difference facets of our Cariboo life.

Hodgson Place celebrates its customers With all but one space filled, things are busy at the Hodgson Mall in downtown Williams Lake. Carl Johnson, owner of the Dollar Dollar, used to have a store down the block from the mall for ten years and remembers Hodgson Mall being quite empty.
“The mall manager approached me and offered a space that would take me from 2,300 to 7,500 square feet so I took a gamble,” Johnson said. Shaun Fosbery has recently returned to Williams Lake and the mall with Galaxy Games. “The location and mall was full and

to be honest, I got a good deal,” Fosbery said, adding there’s a “good amount of foot traffic.” His store, painted a vibrant turquoise, is geared toward table top gaming and collectibles. A few doors down, Sheila Chometzky has Bloom’n’ Gifts, a store she opened on Dec. 25, 2012.

Friends and artists (from left) Gladys Wheatley, Kathryn Steen and Lynda Sawyer take a moment to take it all in during their opening night showing of The Lynch Mob - Hanging Out at the Station House Gallery Thursday evening. The women got the idea for their showing after working together as the gallery’s hanging committee for years.
Lynch Mob takes over Station House October show features top Williams Lake artists Angie Mindus Staff Writer Inspired by displaying the artwork of others, the Station House Gallery’s hanging committee members have claimed a space of their very own in the main gallery this month. With the cleaver title The Lynch Mob — Hanging Out, well-known local artists Lynda Sawyer, Kathryn Steen and Gladys Wheatley are October’s featured artists and hosted an opening Thursday evening to rave reviews. “We’ve been inspired by seeing the work of other artists (featured at the gallery) and thought we should do something,” said Steen of the motivation behind the show. “And we were also inspired by just going out together and sketching.” In fact, for the past four years or more the women have set off on adventures into the countryside with sketch books in hand in search of artistic inspiration. “We just let the wind blow us down the road,” said Wheatley. That road led the artists to natural rural areas around Alkali Lake and Canoe Creek,
which is reflected in all their work. Wheatley describes Lynda Sawyer’s latest offering as “soft, just like her, and beautiful.” Steen rightfully describes Wheatley’s artwork as “brave, vibrant and colourful.” “It’s magic that happens when she paints,” Steen said. Sawyer said there is a feeling of familiarity in Steen’s paintings, “because she has walked in all those grasslands and knows the feeling of being there.” “I find her work spiritual, very haunting with the grasslands,” added Wheatley. Above all else, the women said they were inspired by their friendship. They enjoyed the support they found with each other and the freedom of being able to go out and explore their surroundings together. “The thing is you never know what will inspire you,” said Steen. “Who knows when it will hit you,” added Wheatley. The Lynch Mob — Hanging Out will be on display throughout the month of October at the Station House Gallery in Williams Lake.
The Cariboo Regional District Library will be screening Alanis Obomsawin’s documentary The People of the Kattawapiskak River on Thursday, Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. at the Williams Lake Longhouse. This film explores the housing crisis faced by 1,700 Cree in Northern Ontario, a situation that led Attawapiskat’s band chief, Theresa Spence, to ask the Canadian Red Cross for help. With the Idle No More movement making front page headlines, this film provides background and context for one aspect of the crisis.

The Cariboo Men’s Choir, directed by Carl Johnson, rehearses for upcoming events in Williams Lake. A group favourite is Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, a popular song with rich harmonies and poignant lyrics that appeals to a wide range of audiences.
Cariboo Men’s Choir lifts community spirit LeRae Haynes Special to Tribune/Advisor The Cariboo Men’s Choir is preparing to celebrate 10 years as a unique musical voice at a wide range of community events, including fundraisers, concerts, festivals and special occasions. They have delighted adjudicators at the Cariboo Arts Festival, inspired their first standing ovation and enjoyed both the music and the camaraderie from their very first note. Directed by Carl Johnson, the group has performed for events like Remembrance Day, the Hough Memorial Parade of Choirs, the Rick Hansen anniversary tour, Tuba John’s Christmas, Hospice Memorial Tree, Mayor and Council at city hall and the annual Yuletide Dinner. The choir is actively welcoming new members, and longtime participants say that joining has always been as easy as wanting to belong. “It’s wonderful to sight-read but it’s not crucial; the important thing is to stand beside someone who does really well and
‘tag along’. In this group there is a great deal of tolerance for tagging along,” explained member Elmer Thiessen. “To join, all you need enthusiasm and a willingness to participate; I don’t think there is any such thing as a person who can’t sing.” The choir was born when several friends heard the Welsh Men’s Choir from Vancouver perform in Williams Lake, and afterwards sat around talking about it and said, “We should do this here.” The friends phoned around asking other guys if they were interested and put a notice on the radio and in the newspaper. They said that from the beginning there were no restrictions; if you were interested in singing in a men’s choir you were welcome to join with no audition or experience required. “Some of them had played musical instruments and some may have sung a bit, but many had no experience at all,” said choir manager Jim World. “In the beginning director Carl Johnson had been teaching el-
ementary band, so for the first year we sang a lot of kid’s music. Most in unison – lots of unison. “The very first song in the first or second year where we actually sang harmony was in the song Frobisher Bay and when we first really heard the harmony, when it hit home, everybody has goose bumps, and that’s when we were hooked.” Members explained that the group has a lot of influence on the song choices for the choir, but director Carl Johnson has the final word. He stated that a tune has to be melodious for all parts.” We’re not interested in traditional, classical four-part harmony, barbershop quartet music that is very theoretical,” he said. “I want each of the men’s sections to sound melodious to each singer.” Brian Lapoint has been singing with the group four years, and said that everybody joins for a different reason. “I used to sing beside my wife at church and one time she looked over at me and said, ‘You need discipline,’ so she sent me to Carl,” he ex-
plained. World said that generally the only time men get together is around team sports, and the men’s choir is a very rare opportunity for a group of men to get together. “Singing with a bunch of men with three or four part harmony is unique; when we sing at festival and often the adjudicator will be ‘blown away’ with a men’s choir in a town this size,” he continued. Johnson said that he recognizes different learning styles, abilities and experience, using a flexible teaching style for the group. “Everyone feels comfortable and successful,” he explained. “It’s very positive, with lots of mentorship, camaraderie and fun.” The next opportunity to hear the Cariboo Men’s Choir will be on November 2 at the Williams Lake Pipe Band’s Celtic Ceilidh at Elks Hall. For more information about the Cariboo Men’s Choir, including rehearsal times and how to join, phone Jim World at 250-392-3679 or Carl Johnson at 392-2563.

Means also hopes the day will help raise awareness because • • • • • •
she’s been told repeatedly by people they didn’t know ACL existed. As residential coordinator Means runs a group home for two wheelchair-bound people. “We also try to recruit community members who will share their homes and invite someone to join their family on a permanent basis,” Means said. The pay is little, in comparison to some of the work required, she admitted, but said Williams Lake has been awesome with helping people who need help. There is a regime

Anna Maria
Coming to Williams Lake Acupuncture Clinic is changing my life. After only two treatments, my strength and energy started to increase dramatically. Grace has taught me that by receiving the acupuncture and moxibustion treatments, my immune function will be stimulated. To do the job it is meant to do naturally. I look forward to further improvements in several areas while I continue with treatments at the clinic. Areas helped: - relief from general weakness - significant improvement in tendonitis - strength increased greatly

Halloween festivities in the works Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer The city’s annual fire works display will have a spooky neighbour this year. Karen’s Place Restaurant owners Karen and Raymond Brown are setting up their popular haunted house in the Long House this year. In other years they have turned their restaurant into a haunted house on Halloween night. Last year the spooky venue attracted more than 100 children so this year, with a little help from other businesses, they are expanding the con-
cept and moving it to the Long House in Stampede Park. “We are changing things up a bit this year,” Raymond says. “It is for all ages. We make sure we don’t scare the bejeepers out of everyone.” He says they will also be giving out free hot chocolate and candy bags to children. The Long House is just up the hill from the parking lot where the city will be setting up its up a roaring bonfire for people coming to the Stampede Grounds to watch the city’s 34th annual fireworks show on
Halloween night. The bonfire will be lit at 7:15 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 31 and the fireworks will start at 7:45 p.m. A city report says the Halloween fireworks show is an event that promotes positive community health and provides a safe venue for families, youth groups and individuals to enjoy a spectacular annual event following the trick and treating that many families enjoy. The fireworks show also helps to reduce crime in the community by drawing people together in one place and providing a focal point to
visit friends and families. The 150 Mile House community club is also gearing up for its popular Halloween party which has been a tradition in that community for 25 years. 150 Mile Fire Chief Stan McCarthy says the party starts at 6 p.m. in the 150 Mile Community Hall on Halloween night. The event includes free hot chocolate, hot dogs, cotton candy, and goody bags for the children, followed by a fireworks show at 8 p.m. McCarthy says the event is free, however, cash donations are accepted.
