While Arts on the Fly organizers scramble to find alternate accommodation for the July festival in Horsefly, teachers and the district seem to be at odds over whether the event can be held on school property if teacher strike action continues through the summer. “Rumour has it that Arts on the Fly, the Cariboo’s biggest music and dance festival, is being affected by the teacher’s strike since the festival is usually held on school grounds,” says festival chair Marin Patenaude. But she says the festival committee is confident the show will go on as usual in the Horsefly school field and rink on July 11 and 12. If by small chance the festival isn’t given access to the Horsefly school field and rink area, she says the main stage will simply move down to the Salmon Hatchery grounds with the approval from DFO as a last resort. Cariboo Chilcotin Teachers Association president Murray Helmer says hosting Arts on the Fly on the Horsefly School grounds should not be a problem whether the teacher strike continues into the summer or ends sooner with a deal.

NEWS Recent cougar sightings in the river valley Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The Conservation Officer Service in Williams Lake is warning people there have been cougar sightings in the River Valley. “I got a call Sunday that some people were walking up the trail below the Comer Station when a cougar started following along out of the bush line,” Sgt. Len Butler of the Conservation Officer Service

said Monday. “Not real close, but not really backing off.” The cougar wasn’t stalking them but followed them for quite a ways up the hill. After the man in the hiking party threw rocks and waved his arms, the cougar finally trotted off. “It’s the second call we’ve got about the river valley,” Butler said. “It’s not like they are crouching down with ears back, they

just seem to be more curious than anything.” Butler and his staff haven’t seen the cats for themselves yet so they aren’t sure of their ages, but he said he wanted to let the public know cougars are being seen in the area. People need to be diligent when walking to keep pets close and make lots of noise, he suggested. “For the most part

they are following the deer and this year we have lots of rabbits. We have also received calls about cougars up at Esler.” Cougars are curious so it’s important to do the right thing. Do not turn and run, Butler said. Always stand facing the animal and make yourself as large as possible. Anyone seeing a cougar or bear is asked to call it in to the RAAP line at 1-877-952-7277.

Assault among calls for RCMP service Bear spray and arson were among weekend calls for RCMP service. Saturday, June 21 When an RCMP officer patrolling on Second Avenue North at 2:20 a.m. approached a male riding a bicycle without a helmet and asked him to stop, the male fled, dropping a metal can which was later identified as bear spray. After a brief foot chase the male was

taken into custody and faces charges of obstruction, possession of a dangerous weapon and breach. *** At 6:18 a.m. RCMP responded to an ATV accident several kilometres south of Russet Bluff. A 52-yearold male was reported injured, and was in and out of consciousness. His friend called 911, and because of the remote location, Search and Rescue

and a helicopter were called in to assist. The injured driver was located, airlifted, and is now in stable condition in the hospital in Kamloops. Monday, June 23 RCMP were dispatched to a break and enter to a residence on Fifth Avenue South. The homeowner stated a male came to his house and demanded money, forced his way into his house, assaulted him

and made off with a small amount of money. The suspect was described as a Caucasian male with a short scruffy beard wearing a black mask over his face and a grey shirt or jacket. The victim attended the Cariboo Memorial Hospital for treatment to his injuries — three broken fingers, cuts, scrapes and two broken teeth — before being released.

Williams Lake man charged in nation-wide child pornography investigation Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A 65-year-old Williams Lake man is among 11 B.C. men charged in a nationwide child pornography investigation. He is charged with two counts of possession for distribution. Led by the RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre (NCECC), the investigation — Operation Snapshot

III — began in February 2014 and involved more than 40 police agencies. “There were 29 investigations in B.C., 22 of which were in communities policed by the RCMP,” said Sgt. Rob Vermeulen of the BC RCMP. “To date the RCMP have laid 32 charges against 11 men and there are also a number of investigations that remain ongoing.” Vermeulen said

names of the individuals charged, including the man from Williams Lake, would not be released at this time because many investigations are still ongoing. In addition to the arrest of more than 150 individuals across Canada, five children were removed from harm. “For every person arrested and prosecuted, dozens of potential future victims are

saved from harm,” said RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson in an RCMP press release. The RCMP said the operation targeted child sex offenders who collect, possess, share, make available, distribute and produce child sexual exploitation material online. The operation involved 167 investigations that were conducted by municipal, provincial and federal police services, which

resulted in the seizure of hundreds of computers and hard drives along with nearly two million images or videos. “Prevention is key in combating internet facilitated child sexual exploitation,’” said RCMP Superintendent John Bilinski, Officer in Charge of the Canadian Police Centre for Missing and Exploitation Children/ Behavioural Sciences Branch.

“Empowering children, parents, friends and teachers on how to combat internet predators can make a difference. It is crucial for people to educate themselves about who to trust, where to find help and how to take action.” Operation Snapshot III follows the two previously successful operations: Operation Snapshot in 2012, targeted individuals in the Prairie and North-

ern regions of Canada, and Operation Snapshot II in 2013, focused on individuals in Atlantic Canada. The two operations combined were responsible for rescue of five children, the arrest of 54 individuals and the seizure of millions of child sexual exploitation images and countless leads in other child sexual exploitation cases. - With files from the RCMP

NEWS Teachers and supporters rally in WL Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Williams Lake teachers and their supporters — some from other unions — participated in a Walk-a-Block for Education rally Friday afternoon out in front of Marie Sharpe elementary school. There were speeches, food, music, sidewalk chalk and many people carrying signs. Addressing the crowd, Cariboo-Chilcotin Teachers’ Association president Murray Helmer said it was unfortunate the event was even having to take place. “We have an education minister who says he has to protect the interests of the taxpayers, rather than the future of generations of students,” Helmer said. “It’s not that there isn’t money, it’s the govern-

“Arts on the Fly would not be an issue for us,” Helmer says. “We have allowed daycares to continue that are housed in schools, and we are not picketing third party user groups. The issue resides with the school district for Arts on the Fly.” School District 27 Superintendent Mark Thiessen says the district has not been able to guarantee the use of school property for any community user groups for July and August. “At this point, we are uncertain if there will be a settlement in the provincial negotiations or if our schools and other district buildings will remain behind picket lines into the summer months,” Thiessen says.

“I want to say thank you to the general public because they are the ones who realize that a public education is the cornerstone to a free and democratic society,” Grandinetti said. “They realize that teachers when they edu-

cate students are preparing them to be functioning members of society.” Grandinetti said the B.C. education system has been underfunded for 12 years and that the salary proposal from the BCTF is an eight per cent increase over a five-

year package. “The teachers of this province do believe a deal is possible,” she said as she urged people at the rally to call and e-mail the region’s two MLAs Coralee Oakes and Donna Barnett to urge them to call in a mediator.

“We are hoping to have more clarity by the end of this week as we expect the BCTF will announce their intentions regarding the strike and picket lines for July and August,” Thiessen says. “To be safe, we have advised the organizers of any community events to seek alternate locations for their events this summer.” Helmer says the issue of whether teachers will continue picketing if the strike continues through the summer is currently unresolved. “At Cataline, the balanced calendar program is in session for the month of July, and we have two teachers working there, so pickets may be required unless some arrangement is made provincially,” Helmer says. Meanwhile Patenaude invites everyone to come

out and enjoy Arts on the Fly in Horsefly July 11 and 12. “The show goes on,” reports Patenaude. “Arts On The Fly Festival Society is in high gear of preparation for another wonderful year of music, dance, community, and family friendly good times. “There are more high caliber musicians gracing the little town of Horsefly than ever before, including ska, funk and soul rockers Roots Roundup, and country boot stompers Real Ponchos, and so much more.” On Monday evening the BC School Trustees Association called for both parties (BCTF and BCPSEA) to end the lock-out immediately, however, as of press deadline no agreement had been made.

Budworm spraying planned for Cariboo The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations plans to aerially treat approximately 34,000 hectares of forest in the Williams Lake Timber Supply Area and the 100 Mile House Timber Supply Area to reduce western spruce budworm populations. The biological agent Foray 48B will be applied by two fixedwing aircraft starting about June 23 to July 5, 2014, weather permitting, on sites near White Lake, Fletcher Lake, Big Creek, Gaspard Creek, Alex Lake, Westwick Lakes, and San José and Pipeline roads south of Williams Lake, as well as Big Lake, Clink Lake, Alberta Lake, Big Bar Lake and Jesmond. The western spruce budworm is an insect native to B.C. and the Pacific Northwest. In its larval stage, it defoliates Douglas-fir, true firs, spruce and larch trees. A budworm outbreak has the potential to seriously harm

or kill trees over large areas. The pest management plan and maps of the treatment areas can be viewed at Cariboo Region Forest Health Program office at Suite 200, 640 Borland St., Williams Lake or online at: http://www.for. gov.bc.ca/rsi/Forest H e a l t h / We s t e r n _ S p r u c e _ B u dwo r m _ Spray_2014_Cariboo. htm.

Foray 48B is a biological insecticide that is widely used in B.C. and is registered with the Organic Materials Review Institute. The active ingredient in Foray 48B is the naturally occurring bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki (Btk). This spray affects only moth and butterfly larvae and can be used safely around humans and other ani-

mals. Birds, household pets, fish and beneficial insects (including honey bees) are not affected. The ministry will be using the Cariboo Regional District’s South Cariboo Regional Airport at the 108 Mile Ranch as a base for its spraying operations. The 2013, the ministry was able to treat 6,800 hectares using the South Cariboo Regional Airport as

a base. It is expected about 20,000 hectares will be treated from the airport this year as many of the blocks in the Williams Lake timber supply area are closer to the South Cariboo Regional Airport than the Williams Lake Airport.

Celebrate our history

88 years of Stampede

Generations on display

t’s Stampede week, a time to get the western spirit and celebrate the city’s history as a “cowtown.” Along with the 88th Stampede Williams Lake is celebrating its 85th birthday this year. While the dates differ for a couple of reasons, the city and the Stampede grew up together. We sometimes forget big parts of our history. Williams Lake was a First Nations community for eons before the European fur traders arrived, followed by the gold seekFrench ers. The fur tradConnection ers left few footDiana French prints. The short-lived Cariboo Gold Rush, which began mid-1800s, not only left big footprints, it opened the country for the cattlemen who stayed to make their living, if not their fortunes, on “green gold” of the Cariboo Chilcotin grasslands. Some of the oldest cattle ranches in Canada are in this area. Those first ranchers were holding competitions involving horses (stampedes, races, polo games) years before the first Pacific Great Eastern train arrived Williams Lake in 1919, and what is now the city of Williams Lake sprouted in what had been pioneer William Pinchbeck’s wheatfield. The Stampede started at the same time. The coming of the railway was all about cows and the need for an efficient way to get them to market. Williams Lake became the biggest cattle shipping centre in B.C. Those first ranches are still going strong and probably will be when other resource industries falter. These days there is much talk of the need for “sustainable” industries. Cattle have been raised on the same lands for more than 150 years. Surely that can be considered a sustainable industry. So can the rodeo industry. Our ranching/rodeo history is what makes Williams Lake unique. Other communities have ranching histories, some have rodeos. We have both, and none can match them. So this week, let’s celebrate our birthday, our history, and the famous Williams Lake Stampede. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Our Viewpoint

COs just doing job A story broke late last week of a cougar that had to be put down after entering a home. A woman in Vernon came home from a walk to find a cougar in her living room, with one of her dog’s chew toys in its mouth. The conservation officer was eventually forced to kill the cougar. The most shocking, and saddest, part of this story is not that the cougar died; it’s the vitriol that has been spewed at the conservation officer on media websites carrying the article. “That S.O.B.” “A-holes.” “Wish the cougar would have gotten one of them first.” Although this incident did not happen in our region, whenever one does, similar comments are put forward. Such comments are not only uncalled for, they are ignorant. The bottom line is, conservation officers are exactly that: CONSERVATION officers. They are not hired to kill wildlife, and to a person, they will say it’s the part of their job they despise the most.

Killing an animal is a last resort for them. In this case, that cougar had become so comfortable around human scent that it entered a home and was sprawled out on a living room rug! Yes, it was a chew toy in the cat’s mouth. It could just as easily have been a toddler. This is a wild carnivore. It will attack, kill and eat many creatures smaller than it, or perceived as weaker. Cougars are “beautiful, majestic” animals, as one poster describes, but they are also predators. And relocating cougars is next to impossible. Many cougars found in populated areas are young males and they are there because they’re trying to seek out their own territory and that can lead to run-ins with us. In the end, the public needs to allow conservation officers to do their jobs. They don’t need to be second-guessed when there’s a potential danger to human life.

an you feel the excitement building in the air? Store fronts are all decorated in western themes, hotels are getting ready to welcome thousands of visitors and the grounds are ready for the excitement and action of the world-famous Williams Lake Stampede. Now in its 88th year, the rodeo has hosted some of the best cowboys and cowgirls competing against each other on this important tour stop. The Stampede has MLA defined Williams Musings Lake and has helped preserve Donna Barnett our western heritage and culture. On top of the exciting action at the rodeo grounds, I also have the chance to talk with many local ranchers, agricultural producers, constituents, community leaders and even catch up with old friends. The Stampede is truly a community event with lots of events for all ages throughout the weekend. From the parade on Saturday morning, community pancake breakfasts organized by Rotary and Knights of Columbus, and the evening entertainment featuring B.C. country music artists like Whiskey Jane and the Ken McCoy Band at the Let R’ Buck Saloon and Clancy Wright and the Silverados playing at the beer gardens. And of course, the Stampede is one of the biggest draws for tourists giving locally owned businesses, hotels and other tourism operators a significant boost to their bottom line every year. If you are attending on Friday night, be sure to dress-up in your favourite red shirt in support of our men and women serving in the military. On Sunday, be tough enough and wear pink in support of cancer research where $1 of each ticket sold will be donated to the Cariboo Memorial Trust Fund in support of local Stampede legend, Bruce Watt. Have fun, be safe and enjoy the action at the rodeo. If you drink, please do not drive. Make arrangements before-hand, or designate a driver so everyone gets home safe. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

MORE VIEWPOINTS

Consider financial plan in vote Editor: I have been complacently negligent in following our city’s business and must accept a share of guilt in my dissatisfaction with the 2014-2018 Financial Plan as outlined in the tax bill insert. I might be able to accept one per cent to address inflationary cost although this is not reflected in my pension income. However, the two per cent to provide a five-year fund to address “infrastructure deficits” shows how some council mem-

bers are not in touch with the economics of the community. How many of us would like to save two per cent of our income for personal “infrastructure deficits” such as roof or plumbing replacement but find it impossible to mange. My math indicates that the city will have $724,106 in additional monies in 2014: $338,000 — reduced operating costs and $336,106 - additional income. I will watch with interest the 2015 budget process. We know that once a tax is in place, regardless of promises, it

Question of the week

stays forever — witness income tax and GST. I was unable to find the wording for the increased tax motion but city staff agreed with my interpretation that this motion is finite — that is, at this point the three per cent tax increase ends in 2018. I urge you to keep this in mind when deciding how to cast your ballot in November, and question the candidates accordingly. Thank you. Alena Grosso Williams Lake

Don’t worry about scars — they won’t hurt you Editor: This letter is in response to what Rita Corbett wrote in the Tribune/Weekend Advisor on June 13 about a woman who scratched her knee and was worried about scars. I think I would take first prize if there was a contest about scars. I have a scar on each knee 13 inches long. The first operation was to give me an artificial knee, but that operation was a failure so they operated two

more times cutting open the same scar each time. The third time they did a good job and I had an artificial knee on my other leg. They operated twice before they had a good knee cutting open the scar. I am not worried one bit about these scars as they are covered by my trousers, only the girl who gives me a bath sees those scars and can hardly believe I’ve had five operations, covering over two years. That’s not all — I have a third

of my finger on my right hand cut off, too, and it does not worry me one bit. Now I cannot kneel down on the floor anymore and I was put on old age pension at age 63 because I could not work as a welder. Right away it became a must that all welders had to have rubber knee pads all the time, so don’t worry about scars — they won’t hurt you.

NEWS Horsefly Roundtable: Watershed gets help from Mt. Polley Bruce MacLeod Special to Tribune/Advisor Report of the regular Meeting held June 19, 2014 at the Horsefly Public Library: Special guest Joan Sorley from the Cariboo Regional District attended along with Northern Shuswap Tribal Council (NSTC) Fisheries Manager Ernest Kroeker and a good group of regular members and directors. Outstanding issues from the last meeting were dealt with. The new outhouse for the campground across the bridge will be done before much more time has passed. At the suggestion of Aaron Higginbottom from the Williams Lake Indian Band it has been decided to include some traditional Secwepemc language on some interpretive signs along the Salmon walk. There will also be a commemorative plaque installed honoring Clarence Hooker who passed away recently. Clarence was a long time worker on the salmon channel and organized our salmon egg races. Due to the teachers’ picket lines, the Arts on the Fly group feel they may have to cancel this years’ music festival unless they can secure another location, and it was suggested they could use the area along the Salmon channel if DFO gave their approval. This option is being looked into as time is of the essence. The strategy to introduce the Agricultural Research and Development Corporation (ARDCorp) environmental farm plan — group plan is being developed. Local agricultural producers will be contacted and invited to participate in an agri-environmental risk assessment. Group plans are more effective at addressing watershed level concerns than individual plans, and participants may be eligible for additional funding incentives. The Roundtable is looking forward to

working with Mount Polley Mining Corp. on a restoration project following completion of their Offset Plan for habitat compensation as part of their commitment under the new Fisheries Act legislation. Mt. Polley is considering project options near Horsefly under guidance from federal and provincial fisheries biologists and other stakeholders to ensure the Offset Plan meets local fisheries management objectives. Small tributaries to the Horsefly River help to produce as much as 75 per cent of the rainbow trout for Quesnel Lake and also provide critical Chinook and Coho salmon rearing habitat. The Horsefly watershed is ranked No. 1 “most at risk” in the Cariboo region and was recently recommended for Fisheries Sensitive Watershed status, so it’s good to see it treated as a management priority. The Roundtable is pleased that Mt. Polley will be providing funding to help restore critical rearing habitat in the Quesnel/Horsefly watershed. Although we haven’t seen a report yet, we are informed that the NSTC has been carrying out bass research on the Beaver Lakes and streams and are finding many large bass. Hopefully we will have some numbers to report next meeting. People are reminded to report all bass incidental catches to the Conservation Officer Service (COS). The Salmon Festival is proceeding well into the planning stage. A festival co-ordinator has been hired as well as the children’s art workshop person has been secured, and once again we are hoping the Sugar Cane and Soda Creek Bands will be holding a Pow Wow on the flats along the spawning channel. Like any other of our projects, this is subject to available funding and volunteers, so we are hoping everything works out for the Bands.

The insurance for the campground and Salmon Trail not counting special events amounts to about $1,500 annually. After some discussion it was decided that since the Roundtable is managing the trail for free, as well as taking care of the washroom accommodations, and other maintenance issues and we do not own the land, that it should be incumbent upon the

land owner, namely DFO or the Government of Canada, to insure the area for liability. We will take out special events insurance for our Salmon Festival. The Pumped Storage Hydro projects at Hen Ingram and the other lakes was discussed, inasmuch as there has been no contact from Eclipsol to members of the Roundtable, and all the same issues

raised have not been addressed by the proponent, we will have to wait for their application to proceed to be approved before we take any kind of action individually or as a group. Horsefly is not being treated as a place of reference by the proponent; instead they have chosen to deal with the CRD and First Nations, and to go around the local

population. It is a fact that Eclipsol does know who we are, but choose to ignore us because they have the permission they need to proceed from the B.C. government, and we fell what we think simply doesn’t matter to them. In addition to ongoing salmon habitat restoration funded by the Pacific Salmon Foundation, there may be opportunity

for local trout habitat enhancement through the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation. Streams which are currently under consideration for restoration or enhancement are juvenile salmon and trout rearing streams such as Wilmot Creek, Patenaude Creek, Sucker Creek, and Kroener Creek. Next meeting will be on August 21, 2014 at the Horsefly Library at 7 p.m.

Melissa Stieman, Verne Solomon, and Micheile Solomon at the Riske Creek School where they are working to help restore the school as a community-use facility.

Riske Creek school being transformed Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Half a dozen Tl’esqox School alumni are back helping to transform their old school into something new. Since the end of April they’ve been part of a crew, renovating the old Riske Creek school on Stack Valley Road off Highway 20. “It’s different to come back to the school,” 19-year-old Micheile Solomon said as she took a break from sanding the floors in one of the old classrooms. “I never thought I’d be fixing it.” Along with five other young people, also from the Toosey Indian Band, Micheile is learning skills from Dennis Tulloch, a journeyman carpenter who recently retired from School District 27, and Donald Sparks who has been the maintenance manager at Toosey for the last two years. The plan is to trans-

form the school into a space that can be used for training, recreation, and as a community space for weddings and funerals. Built in 1976 for the school district, it was a public school until the Toosey Band took the school over. The band ran it until the end of the 2006/2007 school year. Band social development program manager Clay Palmantier worked inside the school when it was operational, running a lunch program for the students. “We made food so the kids didn’t have to go home for lunch. I spent a lot of time in here,” he said. The project was the brain child of the band’s forestry manager Craig Kennedy. He drives back and forth past the old school to look after logging in the National Defence’s military reserve and decided something could be done with the build-

ing. “I put in a proposal to offer some training and renovate the building at the same time,” Kennedy recalled. He secured funding through the Cariboo Chilcotin Aboriginal Training Centre and last week Northern Development Initiative Trust approved a grant of $30,000 for materi-

als through its upgrades for community halls and recreation facilities program. Any rent from the building will help keep the lights and power on, he said. An exciting aspect of the project involves economic development. See SCHOOL Page A16

School library to become wood training shop

Monica Lamb-Yorski photo

Donald Sparks, Melissa Stieman, Kyle Houde, Micheile Solomon, Clay Palmantier, Verne Solomon, Craig Kennedy and Dennis Tulloch (missing Ketih Johnny and Brett Houde) outside the school at Riske Creek they are transforming into a community facility. Continued From Page A15 The library is being turned into a wood shop to train workers to build core boxes for mining exploration companies. Holding up a sample of a core box, Kennedy explained the core boxes have four, fivefoot sections within for geologists to store core samples taken from the holes they drill. Part of the training will include business management too, Kennedy explained, as the

workers will price the supplies they’ll need for glue, staples and nails, create a website and find buyers. Tolko and West Fraser have committed to sell the band plywood for boxes and to get the project started have both donated some lumber. It’s been great to gain skills, said 20-year-old Melissa Stieman as she pointed to a huge area outside she’d scraped off in anticipation of painting the building. “We’ve done roofing,

carpentry, and sanding so far,” she smiled. When the group got started on the project at the end of April, the building was a “mess” and every window was broken, 20-year-old Verne Solomon said. “Six weeks into the project the old school already looks better,” he said. The 35-hour work week is keeping Kyle Houde, 24, busy and he said it’s kind of cool all six of them went to school there. Tulloch said seeing

the old school brought back to life while teaching skills to young workers is adding satisfaction to his retirement. “I did maintenance here in my time,” Tulloch said as he explained what’s been done and what will be repaired. Looking around the gymnasium, Sparks agreed it will be good to whip the building back in shape. “I dressed up as Santa Claus for the students many times,” he recalled. On a Friday afternoon in June, the crew stood outside the school for a group photo under what remains of the old school’s name. Melissa warned in the very near future the building would have a fresh coat of paint. “The brown trim is staying but we’re painting the building all teal,” she said. Kennedy said the Toosey Indian Band basically took over the school in the band’s

name, and the School Board was very supportive to make the project happen. “With the community’s new band and health centre almost ready for staff to move in, spirits are high and everybody’s really happy,” he said.

Celebrating Legion Week In honour of our Veterans

ROYAL CANADIAN BRANCH 139 KEN WILSON This is Legion Week in British Columbia. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139 in Williams Lake reminds you they are more than a Remembrance Day organization. Most of the money raised in Williams Lake as a result of Legion activities, is spent here, right in town. We give cheques to local organizations and individuals who need some financial help. These funds are in addition to the money raised through the annual Poppy campaign, which is reserved for veterans services and other specifically authorized u s e s . Branch 139 is a strong Legion and we are attracting new members each month, like Charlene Harrison who was one of five new people sworn into the Legion in Williams Lake last Saturday. Steak dinners, Pasta nights, meat draws Friday and Saturday, along with a Ladies only night ‘fashion show’ are just some of the events where the Legion raises money for Veterans and the Community. The Royal Canadian Legion takes part in the Stampede activities this weekend with breakfasts, steak dinners with dancing to “Perfect Match” and we will take part in the July 1st Canada Day Celebration. Does the Great War of 1914-1918 still matter today? A hundred years later, there is not a single soldier left alive in any of the belligerent nations, and the economic and political shocks the war produced were almost certainly exceeded by the carnage of the Second World War that began 25 years after 1914. Only the millions of dead, marked

A Salute To Our Veterans

by monuments of remembrance, remain as silent witnesses to the suffering of men and women. Canadian troops took Vimy Ridge during that war and it became a defining moment in Canadian history because it was the first time all four Canadian divisions had taken part in a battle together. The First and Second World wars took the lives of so many Canadians who volunteered to serve their country for us. We counted on them, now they can count on us to remember and show that we care.

Stampede Street Party grows with more new events The annual Stampede Street Party Saturday promises to be bigger and better than ever says vendor co-ordinator Angie Delainey. “Already we have surpassed our vendor/merchant numbers from the last year putting us up around 55-plus booths and businesses to visit,” Delainey says. “This year we have put more emphasis on organization, gathering spaces and clustering like business so that there will be a flow to the market that will take you up and down the streets and in and out of our shops.” She says the organizers hired help for the Kids Zone and Entertainment. Linda Bingham from the Boys and Girls Club and Oren Barter, a local musician, have both come to the table with their talents and it’s paying off, she says. “The Kids Zone is going to be a hit!” Delainey says. A huge sand pile, bouncy castles, 4-H Petting Zoo, interactive experiential games, face painting, remote control cars and much more will be there for the kids. The entertainment component boasts three stages with performers such as Bluenote, Perfect Match, Nostalgie, Eighth Deck Kelly, GMO’s, Carmen Mutschele, Kalvin Locke and the Youth Fiddlers, Williams Lake Pipe Band, Francis Johnson and the Emerald Lake Dancers and much more! “Plus a special sur-

prise!” Delainey says. “I’m really stoked that more of our local merchants are participating this year by bringing their goods either to the street or onto the sidewalk, we

want to make sure that the 10,000 people who come to the streets with money in their pocket have places to spend it.” She says there has also been an increase in community participa-

tion. “We’ve got the Stampeders Street Hockey Tournament by Caribou Ski as well as a barbecue by donation put on by FBB Accountants, and a flea market and Pet

Parade/Show organized by Sue LaChance of New World Cafe. Anyone who would like to be part of the Flea Market or Pet Parade can contact Sue at info@newworldcoffee.

Sense and sensibility back on stage

ca or by calling 250-2673284. She says the street party will also have a farmers/artisan market, and festival eats located in Spirit Square. Entertainers include Master Magician Clint W Gray and Magical Jesaja and clowns! The Street Party starts right after the parade around noon Saturday, July 28 and runs until 4 p.m. “During that short period of time about 10,000 visitors gather in the downtown core for the party and we want to provide them with an awesome experience,”

Delainey says. To make that happen the BIA still needs some helping hands to keep the event running smoothly. We’ve added a few dollars to our budget to donate towards a group of 4 or more for: • 18+ people to man a barricade for the parade/ street party • help with clean up and take down • volunteer groups may sell raffle tickets for their organization while working, and wear their club jerseys. Interested volunteers can contact Delainey at 250-305-4422 or 250-398-9020.

Parade marshals continue 4-H tradition Gaeil Farrar Lyn Stafford Tribune/Advisor Bill and Virginia-Lyn (Lyn) Stafford, the 2014 Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade Honorary Parade Marshals, and their families are continuing a B.C. 4-H Club tradition that spans four generations and more than 50 years. Fittingly the parade theme this year is the number 4 and the letter H. Bill and Lyn operate the Chimney Creek Hereford Ranch with their two sons Ross and James. Growing up Bill and his siblings were involved in showing cattle with his parents, the late Bill Sr. and Beryl Stafford, who introduced their children to the 4-H program during the late 1950s. The senior Staffords felt the 4-H program provided valuable training in animal husbandry, public speaking and much more. Bill Sr. supported 4-H in every possible way he could, becoming a parent leader and 4-H Club supporter. Their four children joined the Springhouse 4-H Club with Bill Jr. and Betty starting as pre-club members. Betty was a member from 1960 to 1971; Elaine from 1961 to 1973; Bill Jr. from 1963 to 1975; and Fred from 1973 to 1983. The children always had beef projects, until Betty and Elaine decided to do a tractor project on which Bill Sr. had to do some repairs when they were done. Over the years the Stafford children won many awards in showmanship, grooming, judging, public speaking, demonstrations and their market steers. Elaine won grand champion steer in 1966 and was the first 4-H member to get a $1 a pound for her steer. The steer was bought by Mel Call and Frank Armes (Lyn’s grandfather). Betty took reserve champion that same year. In 1972 Bill won grand aggregate and calf scramble. Donated by Cariboo Concrete the calf weighed 490 pounds. That was the starting weight of a market steer back then. 4-H doesn’t have the calf scramble anymore for the safety of members and the animals. When Fred joined he also won grand champion steer in 1976 and as a boy created a picture in leather craft of a cowboy roping a calf that was donated as a 4-H raffle fundraiser. Ray and Chrissy Pigeon won the picture. Bill and his sister Betty went

Betty was the main leader and Bill was the beef leader. Bill and Lyn were married in 1978 and raised their three children, Ross, James and ConnieLyn in the Springhouse 4-H Club with Bill and Lyn becoming club leaders. Lyn started out as a leather craft leader. Bill served as assistant leader of the club under Bill Bennett, and took over the club as main leader in 1990, with Lyn serving as assistant leader, and serving as a leader with the Springhouse and Chimney Valley 4-H clubs for 25 years. Ross joined 4-H in 1989 at the age of nine. James and ConnieLyn, joined as pre-club members in 1990 and 1991 respectively. As a pre-club member James couldn’t sell his steer in the regular 4-H sale so they sold it at the old Stockyards on South Lakeside where the pellet plant is today. Connie-Lyn joined 4-H with a

swine project as a pre-club member, but from then on raised beef. Pre-club members are now Clover Buds from age six to eight. For safety sake Clover Buds are not permitted to raise animals. In 2000 the Stafford children won the best group of four steers and the best group of two heifers with all of the projects coming from the Stafford Ranch. Ross won grand-champion heifer; Connie-Lyn reserve champion cow/calf, and James won runner-up champion market steer three times. At age 20, Connie-Lyn became one of the first 4-H ambassadors serving in 2002 and 2003. Her cousin, Amy, followed in her footsteps as ambassador in 2011 and 2012. Bill and Lyn have continued as leaders in various 4-H capacities for many years. Bill served as a club leader for 14 years and as the Williams Lake district council president from 1998 to 2002 when he retired a leader. Bill continues to support the

4-H program by supporting its members at the annual 4-H Show and Sale in August, hosting club achievement days, serving as a beef judge at other club’s achievement days and at judging rallies, and providing projects for the 4-H Club members. Bill and Lyn are now looking forward to their youngest grandchildren joining 4-H when they are old enough. Ross and Dorreen, have four children, Henry and Lisa-Marie Stafford and step-sons, Andrew and Tyler. Ross has been a Springhouse leader for 10 years and served two years as district vice-president before becoming the 4-H district president in 2013/14. Connie-Lyn and her husband, Travis Redl (who also grew up in 4-H), have two daughters, WillaLyn and MacKenzie-Rae. Connie-Lyn continues the tradition of being a 4-H leader in beef. James is single. The family members are also huge Stampede supporters both watching and participating. Ross, Travis and James compete in the ranch rodeo challenges. Bill’s brother, Fred (a key leader), and his wife, Elaine, also continue the family tradition as 4-H leaders with the Chimney Valley 4-H Club. Their three children Amy, Ian, and Allan, have all been Chimney Valley club members in swine, small engines, and gardening. Allan, who has won champion garden display, is still an active club member. Bill’s sister Elaine (Cawley) and her husband, Cliff’s children, Marina, Naomi and Regan also joined 4-H about the same time as Bill and Lyn’s children did. Marina won reserve champion steer and Naomi won runner up steer, while Amy won grand champion market swine. During their more than 50-year involvement with 4-H Bill and Lyn have seen a lot of changes in the 4-H program, all progressing to the standards and rules of today’s industries. Food, grandparents, bicycles, small engines, sheep, beef, swine, poultry, rabbits, horses, dogs, photography, and tractors, are just some of the many programs 4-H offers today in the Cariboo Regional District. At the coast there are many more projects offered including dairy cows, sewing, and even lama projects. Lyn and Bill Stafford continue to support the 4-H program any way they can and hope their grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will carry on the family tradition.

Lorraine Levitt

Big Brothers Big Sisters in Williams Lake is hosting an open house tomorrow to say goodbye retiring excutive director Lorraine Levitt and welcome the new executive director, Melissa Newberry. Levitt has been working for BBBS for 27 years. She was hired in June 1987 as a parttime co-ordinator while working full time as a commercial credit/ mortgage officer with Scotia Bank. “At the time I was hired there were seven matches,” Levitt says. “Some were active and some were not. For a number of years I juggled both jobs until BBBS was getting too large to handle on a part time basis. “I ended up leaving the bank for a job where my heart was invested.”

CCCTA hosts photography contest Friends, families and travellers from far and wide may be eligible to win a multitude of amazing outdoor adventure prizes in the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism Associations photo contest, says CCCTA marketing manager Brad McGuire. “The goal of this fun and interactive online photo contest is to engage with travellers in the region and to motivate future visitors to the CCC from within our North American

of our largest fundraising events,” Levitt says. “In 2013 we served 174 children in one on one matches.” People wishing to meet Newberry and say goodbye to Levitt, who is moving to Kamloops are invited to stop by the centre at 200-369 Oliver Street between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Thursday, June 26.

Blue Fins put forward best times at ‘AA’ provs The first night of finals at the AA provincial swimming championships from June 20-22 in Victoria featured half of the Williams Lake team competing for top spots. Although three swims were a 10th of a second or less away from making a final, the group rallied around their other finals. David Russell had a busy day with three solid swims in the morning and three finals in the afternoon. David finished up 16th in the 100 back, 15th in the 200 IM and eighth in the 50 free. Danika Robson swam to a second swim in the 100 back finishing up 15th over all and just missing the 50 free by a 10th of a second. Leif Brandson had a great 200 IM making it into finals and narrowly missing another final by less than a 10th of a second. Leif bettered his morning performance and captured the silver medal in the 200 IM. Gracie Frost missed her 50 free by a 10th of a second adding to the near misses of the day for the team, but buckled down in her 100

Gracie Frost back to win the event and qualify for AAA championships with her second AAA time. Gracie was neck and neck with her competition into the turn where she nailed a fast turn and took off on the rest for the field. It was a battle until the end but with a good finish Gracie took the gold medal. The second day was a bit light in

the number of finals but that didn’t stop Gracie and Danika from improving significantly. Gracie captured a bronze in the 100 butterfly beating her best time by more than seven seconds and gaining another AAA time, while Danika finished with a fifth in the 400 free. The third night was a big finish for the Blue Fins as Leif managed three finals, Gracie two, and Danika and Keanna Saunders had one final apiece. Danika swam to a seventh-place finish in the 200 free to finish off her weekend and a solid year. Liam McCreight swam some tough swims, and while he was feeling under the weather he managed a great swim in his last event in the 200 back bettering his time by more than three seconds. Keanna took another second off from her five-second improvement in the morning and finished in seventh spot in the 100 breast stroke. Gracie took off with an early lead in the 200 free and just got out touched for fourth as she nar-

rowly missed another AAA time. She wasn’t done there for the night as she crushed her best time in 200 back by 12 seconds and took another gold to wrap up her impressive weekend. Liam and David also finished with some solid swims and Liam, despite being sick, posted a great swim and best time in his back stroke to move up 10 places in his rankings. Leif had another solid swim in the 200 free, not quite swimming to his morning’s best time but finishing the race with a fifth. In the 200 back Leif swam his way to his first AAA time in the morning and finished with another best time taking over six seconds off all together. In his last swim and last chance for AAAs Leif swam his sixth race of the day as he finished with a 400 individual medley with a goldmedal performance and a 27-second improvement qualifying him as the sixth Blue Fin for AAA provincials. Leif also broke a 10-yearold club record in the 400 IM.

The past three weeks have seen the Williams Lake Rustlers rugby team riding hard on the trail. First up was the Terrace Northmen, Interior Rugby Union league play. Injuries and work commitments created pressures for the team, as several stalwarts had to stay home. Strong, simply structured rugby kept the Rustlers pressing through the match, with Sky Freeman scoring one try, Doug Fraser adding two tries and two conversions for 19 points. The Northmen were tenacious, taking advantage of the few lapses in Rustler defense to score 19 points of their own. With the game drawing to a close, Terrace crashed through to the Rustlers end zone, only to have their game breaking score reversed due to a penalty infraction.

The following weekend, the Rustlers travelled to engage the Prince George Gnats at their Kelly Road grounds. Within five minutes of the opening whistle, Jordan Pritchard worked down the touchline with fluid passing movement with several support players to score the Rustlers first try. With their cleats in home soil, the Gnats were much improved in sustaining ball possession, creating several scoring chances before Beau Parker snagged a clearing kick and blew through the Gnats defense for his first try of the match. Then, after receiving a late hit from Prince George, Parker stepped up hard, putting on a skills exhibition in scoring two more tries before Prince George could stem the tide with two

He also kicked three conversions, giving the Rustlers 31 points on the day, to 12 for Prince George. For a third weekend in a row, the Rustlers mounted up to participate in the Penticton Sun Fest Tournament hosted by the Penticton Harlequins RFC. In the first game of the tournament series Williams Lake met Merritt taking a 15-0 win. Next up was Trail, where the Rustlers gathered steam, scoring 22 points to nil. Advancing from top of their pool, the Rustlers met the Capilano/Gibson’s combined squad in semifinal play stacking up 32 points again without conceding a score. The final against the

“There haven’t been too many of those lately,” he joked, pressing harder on the metal, perhaps to make a point. As Infiniti Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products, rather than merely offering his name as a celebrity endorsement. He talked enthusiastically about the new compact, performance-oriented Q30, which should see the light late next year in Europe and a little later in Canada. The 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 Q50S we were riding in also benefitted from a little of his input. He’s clearly looking forward to Infiniti giving the go-ahead to the Q50 Eau Rouge concept, which features the Nissan GT-R’s growling 560-horsepower twin-turbo V6. Another corner loomed and I leaned into the door, as he barely slowed from the rapid pace we had zipped along the straight. “Your cornering has improved since last year,” I offered cheekily.

“Thank you, I think I’ve got the apexes about right,” he grinned. Hours earlier, it’s doubtful he had even heard of the tricky track, nevermind driven it. Harkening back to his references to happy endings, I reminded him that after driving with me last year he had enjoyed nothing but success. “That’s right . . . it’s all down to you,” he said with what I believed was a thoroughly genuine smile of appreciation. The end was nigh. Time flies when you are having fun: our hot lap and friendly chat took less than four minutes. Last Sunday, he enjoyed only his second podium finish of the year taking third place at the Montreal Grand Prix. You’re welcome, Seb. Same time next year, in the Eau Rouge?

Zoom-Zoom goes flash and boom With a flash of lightning beside our car, my co-pilot Alexandra Straub let out a screech as loud as the accompanying crack from the massive flash. Pouring rain in our tiny car made the very first day of the 2014 Mazda rally one to remember. The Mazda MX-5 (Miata) is a car most would associate with sunny, summer top-down driving but this little machine was determined to show what it was made of. The howling wind, torrential rain and debris-covered roads were all taken in stride as we carved our way through the Tennessee mountains on our way to the Brasstown Valley Resort in neighboring Georgia. Over the next three days, we experienced the MX-5 on some of the most dramatic and scenic roads this continent has to offer, and there was money on the line, big money. Last year was the inaugural Mazda Rally, which Alexandra and I won, taking home $10,000 in charity money for Kidsport. As last year’s champions, we had extra pressure this year to repeat, something we later found out would be much tougher than we had imagined. If you ever take a drive through the south east of the United States, do yourself a favour and divert away from the interstate highway system and experience driving nirvana, traversing the Blue Ridge, Unico and Smokey Mountain ranges. The lush National and State parks along with small towns and twisting river valleys is something to experience. This is a destination for drivers too, especially the “Tail of the Dragon”, a section of highway 129, just inside the North Carolina border that has 318 turns over an 18km stretch. This is a favourite of motorcycle riders but it is open to anyone wanting to experience back-to-back corners ranging from very tight to wide, sweeping turns. Our run up this road was wide open thanks to steady rain, with a few dozen motorcyclists out for a tour and several photographers taking pictures, then selling them to tourist, the same way you can buy a picture of your rollercoaster ride at the PNE! Paved roads are the place the MX-5 shines, wet or dry. It never felt like the car was

out of control, even on the fastest and most aggressive corners. There is so much goodness dialed into this little car that it rewards the driver and passenger hour-after-hour. With a front engine, rear drive setup and perfect weight distribution, the MX-5 has been one of my all-time favourite cars because of its simplicity. The small, light, thrifty dimensions matched to a raspy 2.0L 4-cylinder and 6-speed manual makes for a fantastic power-to-weight distribution, meaning the 160hp engine might not sound like much on paper but, in practice, it makes the most of every situation. One thing Mazda’s event planners has us do was drive and collect information for each days challenges. All of these were kept secret until the beginning of each drive, including the roads we might travel. A surprise was that some sections were unpaved. Taking Mazda’s brand new MX-5 through forest back-roads at speed, meant rocks flying, branches felled from the previous night’s storm kicking up, sliding sideways through corners and pounding over rough and rutted gravel. At the end, the MX-5 showed no signs of wear; it just powered on to the next challenge, which was another surprise, the Atlanta Motorsports Park for an autocross challenge. To say we went from one extreme to the other is an understatement. An hour earlier I was sliding across gravel roads, followed by sliding around a racetrack trying to avoid pylons to dial in my best lap time. As it turns out I did get the second best time of the event but one of those pylons got in the way, knocking down my time by two seconds, all part of the challenge’s rules. Over the three-day event, Alexandra and I didn’t have one disagreement, I made some navigational errors

and so did she. We let it roll, these were long days and we hoped a few small glitches wouldn’t impact our score too much. We also missed one major clue in our guidebook, one that was worth a whopping 50 points. At the end, we had slipped from second place after the first day to fifth place. Sadly, next year we won’t be able to proudly display the number one on the side of our Black Press car. zack.spencer@drivewaybc. ca PLEASE READ THE FINE PRINT: Offers valid until June 30, 2014.
