Wildfire 80 per cent contained

es Sunglasas t That Flo

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A 99-hectare wildfire at Soda Creek, ignited by a passing train Sunday, was 80 per cent contained by Tuesday, giving local property owners reason to breath easier. “We dodged a huge one,” said Diane Dunaway, who along with her husband Dave, own one of two properties that had the fire in their backyard. “The best in human nature came out and we’re feeling so very fortunate.” The fire started Sunday afternoon after a CN train went through, igniting small fires along a two-mile stretch of the track running through the Dunaway’s property and the neighbouring Dunlevy Ranch. Around 3:15 p.m. Diane called to alert the Kaufmans of Dunlevy Ranch about the fire. “Dave was sitting in the living room and called me over telling me to look toward the end of our property,” Diane recalled. “Then all of a sudden it started backlighting along the tracks, there was this trail of smoke, it was unbelievable.” Response to the fire was quick. The newly formed McLeese Lake fire dept. arrived first on the ground with two trucks and five personnel.

HELP THE CITY SAVE WATER AND THE ENVIRONMENT WITH THE LOW FLOW TOILET/APPLIANCE REBATE PROGRAM Many homes in Williams Lake are equipped with older toilets, dishwashers or clothes washers that require more water to operate. New low flow toilets and appliances require much less water while doing the same function. By replacing your old toilet and appliances, you could use up to one-third less water! That could save the average household more than 300 liters per day, or 100,000 liters per year. The City is offering a MAXIMUM of two rebates per residential unit per year. 1. Toilets using 4.8 liters or less, with a Maximum Performance (MaP) Tested approved new low flow fixture. Visit website www.cwwa.ca/freepub_e.asp to view. 2. Dishwashers that are on the approved list on the City’s website. 3. Clothes washers that are on the approved list on the City’s website.

WHY HAS THE CITY INITIATED THIS LOW FLOW TOILET/APPLIANCE REBATE PROGRAM? The City of Williams Lake wants to reduce the amount of water consumed as well as the amount of water flowing into the sanitary sewer system. It costs money to treat the water coming in and going out of your house. Using less water saves both money and the environment for everyone who lives in and around the Cariboo.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE REBATE?

This offer is only for owners of residential units that are connected to the City of Williams Lake’s Water and Sewer system. There is a YEARLY limit of two toilets/appliance rebates per residential unit. Simple toilet replacements do not require a plumbing permit. However, if you are also renovating, you must apply for a building permit.

NEW CONSTRUCTION

For new construction in the City of Williams Lake, all plumbing must adhere to the BC Plumbing codes. However, the City is providing rebates for those

property owners or contractors who choose to install MaP approved Dual Flush toilets (3/4.8L) and 3 liter fixtures instead of the minimum code requirement for toilet installation. There is no maximum for this incentive.

WHAT ABOUT MY OLD TOILET OR APPLIANCE?

Your old toilet or appliance must be disposed of at the City of Williams Lake’s Municipal Worksyard at 555 N Second Avenue. You must have a copy of the approved Rebate Form with you when the fixture is dropped off. The form must be signed by a City representative.

WHAT DO I NEED TO APPLY FOR THE REBATE PROGRAM?

1. Pick up an application form at City Hall, Development Services, 450 Mart Street. Fill it in and return to City Hall. 2. Provide a receipt for the purchase of an approved low flow fixture. 3. Provide proof of installation of a low flow toilet or appliance and proof that the old toilet or appliance has been brought to the Municipal Worksyard. This is achieved by: • An inspection of the newly installed toilet in place by a City Representative. • A signed copy of the application form proving the old unit was dropped off at the Municipal Worksyard located at 555 North Second Avenue. 4. You must agree to permit the representative of the City of Williams Lake access to inspect the installation. Simple toilet replacements do not require a plumbing permit. However, if you are also renovating, you must apply for a building permit. City staff will review your application and, if you qualify, the City of Williams Lake will mail you a cheque for each eligible low flow toilet or appliance (up to two rebates per residential dwelling per year). This program is on a first come first serve basis. Your application must be approved by the Development Services Coordinator prior to purchasing a low flow toilet to guarantee a rebate.

Man wielding two-by-four catches RCMP’s attention A man wielding a two-by-four caught the attention of the Williams Lake RCMP during the weekend. Sunday, July 13 At 3:50 p.m. RCMP responded to an attempted break-in

into a trailer located on the 1400 block of Broadway Avenue South. While the homeowner was away the suspect(s) attempted to gain entry into the trailer through a window. The window was damaged but entry

into the trailer was not gained. *** Later in the evening RCMP responded to a call of a man swinging a two-by-four outside the Ramada Inn. Officers attended and arrested a

23-year-old man from Williams Lake a short distance from the location. “The suspect swung the two-by-four at a male and female that had passed through the lobby of the hotel on their way outside,” said Williams Lake

RCMP Sgt. Rick Lebeuf. “They were not struck or injured during this event. All involved are known to each other and alcohol was a contributing factor.” Monday, July 14

The Williams Lake RCMP received a report of an alarm at Williams Lake Secondary School. Officers attended and noticed three males running from the building. “After a short foot pursuit police were

able to catch one of the youth involved,” Lebeuf said. “Entry into the school was made through the roof and nothing was reported missing from the school.” The matter is still under investigation.

Dunlevy Ranch irrigation system crucial in battling blaze Continued From Page A1 “Water bombers were already there, but no one was on the ground yet,” said McLeese Lake volunteer firefighter Ian Hicks. “We just started going up and down the side of the tracks to extinguish the flames.” Soon afterwards, a Cariboo Fire Centre wildfire branch crew from 100 Mile House showed up. They were returning from fighting the Euchinko Lake fire west of Quesnel and happened to be in McLeese Lake

when the call came in about the fire. Because the Cariboo Fire Centre received so many calls about the fire from the public it didn’t take long to deploy more than 30 wildfire management branch personnel, 10 air tankers, three helicopters and heavy equipment, said CFC communications specialist Sandra Wagner. The Dunlevy Ranch’s irrigation system was crucial in tackling the wildfire, said Linda Kaufman. “We were able to provide all the water for the crews. Our irrigation

system can draw 550 gallons a minute from McLeese Lake. It saved us,” Linda said. By Monday crews were building a road at the top of the hill above the properties to get at the fire and bringing in more heavy equipment. Additionally, four water bombers, retrieving water from McLeese Lake, worked all morning. It was impressive watching the bombers in action, said Hicks who lives at the lake. “They would fly in formation, take turns getting the water from the lake, fly out, drop

the water on the fire in sequence, and return in about two minutes,” he said. When asked if it’s the first wildfire near their ranch, Linda said in the 20 years she’s lived there she can recall another wildfire. It was caused by a BC Rail train. Diane praised their neighbours, some in their 70s, who in the 38 C heat were hooking up fire hoses and helping the Dunaways get their horses put away. Up until the day before, the Kaufmans’ cattle had been grazing above the tracks in the Dunaway’s pasture as

well, but luckily had been moved the night before. Diane also credited outside support, saying it has been overwhelming. “I feel like these guys are super professional and we have tons of re-

sources,” she said. “There’s people here from West Fraser, CN Rail guys who stayed through the night Sunday, and really good leadership with the forestry guys and the ground crew.” More than 50 Wild-

fire Branch personnel remained on the ground Tuesday, extinguishing hot spots with continued assistance from three helicopters. Mop up is expected to begin Wednesday and continue through Thursday.

Campfires restricted Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Effective at noon Wednesday campfires will be prohibited in the Cariboo west of the Fraser River to help prevent humancaused wildfires and protect public safety, the Cariboo Fire Centre Wildfire Management Branch said Monday. “This campfire prohibition does not apply to cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes, but does apply to campfires, open fires in an outdoor stove, tiki torches and any portable campfire apparatus that is not CSA/ ULC approved.” Additionally, open burning will be prohibited throughout the entire Cariboo Fire Centre and anyone conducting category two or category three fires must extinguish any such fires

by noon on July 16. The use of burning barrels, sky lanterns, fireworks will also be prohibited. Specifically, prohibited activities for east of the Fraser River include category two open fires, category three open fires, fireworks, including firecrackers, sky lanterns and burning barrels. West of the Fraser River the following are banned: campfires, category two open fires, category three open fires, fireworks, including firecrackers, sky lanterns, burning barrels, chimneys (wood-burning patio heaters), tikitype torches, outdoor stoves and portable campfire apparatuses that are not CSA or ULC approved, or if the flame exceeds a height of 15 centimetres. These prohibitions cover all BC Parks,

Crown lands and private lands, but do not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has forest fire prevention bylaws serviced by a fire department. These prohibitions will remain in place until Sept. 30, or until the public is informed otherwise. The Wildfire Branch reminded the public anyone found in contravention of an open fire prohibition may be issued a ticket for $345 or, if convicted in court, may be fined up to $100,000 and sentenced to one year in jail. “If the contravention causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be subject to a penalty of up to $10,000 and be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs,” the notice stated.

Sense and Sensibility wins three provincial awards Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer The Studio Theatre’s production of Sense and Sensibility came away with three prestigious awards at the Mainstage provincial drama festival awards night in Kamloops Saturday. Sandi Alaric, who played Lady Jennings, won for best supporting actress. Jenny McPhee, who played Marianne Dashwood, won best youth actress (under age 25). Christa Obergfell won for best costumes. Director Becky Strickland says the adjudicator, Kathryn Shaw, also told the cast and crew during their adjudication their sets were inspired. Shaw is the longtime artistic director of Studio 58, and a noted Canadian director and acting instructor in demand across Canada. “She (Shaw) was really impressed with

how Curt Sprickerhoff had developed such a clean-lined set to tell the story,” Strickland says. “She also really liked the use of the images in the frame and on the trellis. There were many incredible sets this year in the eight plays performed. It was a very tough category.” Strickland says she was inspired by the works of many of the other plays she saw at the provincial festival and highly recommends the festival. “As a first time Mainstage director the whole experience was incredible,” says Strickland. “From walking into a theatre so much bigger than ours and working to create the intimacy we have in our little theatre, to watching my play come to life again in front of an adjudicator and a Kamloops audience, to listening to the encouraging and guiding words of Kathleen the adjudicator

during a two hour coffee critique, finally to sitting at the awards banquet and hearing the names of members of my cast and crew get called to receive awards for their amazing work.” She says the adjudicator, acknowledged the difficulty of staging a Jon Jory play and a classic piece of literature. “She could see that a great deal of work had been put in by the team to make it a successful production.” She says the adjudicator felt the actors had a good handle on their characters and that there were many fascinating supporting character roles within the script. In particular she noted Sandi Alaric (Mrs. Jennings), Chris Armstrong (John Dashwood) and Brad Lawryk, (Sir John Middleton) for their work with such strong character roles. She appreciated the

diversity presented within the three lead male roles; Colonel Brandon (Terry Lyons) was stoic and serious, Edward (Colin Sanford) was shy and introverted and Willoughby (Scott Smithson) was charismatic and charming. She felt playing the three men this way clearly showed the diversity within the characters. Strickland notes that it was Elinor (Kathy Macdonald) and Marianne (Jenny McPhee) whose relationship was the core of the play and Shaw commended the women on being so committed and making their characters so strong. “At the same time Kathryn presented us with a variety of new ideas to try,” Strickland says. “She worked with the cast on a number of scenes bringing in new elements and helping the actors see more that could be there.”

Lakecity airport land base expands Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The Williams Lake Airport’s land base has increased by 25 hectares thanks to a Crown grant from the province. At the airport Friday, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Coralee Oakes confirmed the transfer and said the two parcels of land in the grant are valued at more than $714,000. “The Crown grant announced today will help the City of Williams Lake increase potential hangar space, which we all know contributes to the vital economics of this region,” Oakes said. There is also potential for the Cariboo Fire Centre to expand its training and other facilities in the future, Oakes said. She also acknowledged the work of mayor and council in pushing for the land grant, crediting them as the “driving force” behind the announcement. Mayor Kerry Cook

Cariboo North MLA Coralee Oakes (third from left) announced a 25-hectare Crown land transfer from the province to the Williams Lake Airport Friday. said the request for the land first came from council to government five years ago. “It’s been important for us, not only economically, but for the future expansion of the fire centre, which has been a critical part of this region,” Cook said. Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett thanked city staff and council for their dedication to obtaining the land. “Without it, the Crown land transfer would never have happened,” she said of

their persistence. Airport manager Shea de la Mare said there has been a lot of interest in the airport, especially in the last year. The resource sector is booming, our aircraft and number of passengers have increased,” he said. “There have been inquiries from private and commercial operators of aircraft and maintenance operators interested in building facilities at the airport.” As he pointed to the new parcel of land

adjacent to the south end of the runway, de la Mare explained that the area has been identified as a spot where business and private owners could erect hangars. “This announcement means a lot to the city and the entire Cariboo region,” he said. During her first year as minister, Oakes has seen three or four requests for Crown land transfers come across her desk. “Under my ministry I’m allowed to grant a certain amount to

municipal governments and this was an important one,” she said. “All requests go through the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.” De La Mare said there are no plans to expand the 7,000 foot runway, although the city does have an application in the Airport Capital Assistance Program to repave it. The runway can comfortably hold 737 and Airbus A320s, and while some of the larger aircraft such as 757s and 767s may not regularly use it, the airport has the capability to accept aircraft up to that size. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor, who has been on council 21 years, said the city began asking the government for land to expand the airport back in 1993. “A couple of times we got the land but there was a question of us giving government 50 per cent of the income we would earn,” he said. “Today’s grant from Minister Oakes is really good news.”

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

Uruguayan president could teach lesson

Wildfire safety

ecause the news was full of it, and it was too hot to do much on Sunday anyway, I watched most of the world soccer match. My knowledge of soccer is limited to watching grandchildren play when they were little. Their games seemed to be players milling around the middle of the field trying to get close enough to the ball to kick it. I don’t know what the rules French are, so Sunday’s Connection game looked the same to me except Diana French for all the head bumps. Question: Where does soccer rate in terms of concussions? Nothing to do with soccer, except that one of Uruguay’s team members bit another player bringing negative publicity to the country the Economist named Country of the Year in 2013. That wee land has a particularly interesting head of state. President José Mujica has been a florist, a guerrilla, and a political prisoner (nine years in solitary confinement). Known as the world’s poorest president, he lives in a tiny run-down house instead of the presidential mansion and he donates most of his presidential stipend to charity. His philosophy? “A president is a high-level official who is elected to carry out a function. He is not a king, not a god. He is not the witch doctor of a tribe who knows everything. He is a civil servant. I think the ideal way of living is to live like the vast majority of people whom we attempt to serve and represent.” I wonder if any of our prime ministers, premiers, and mayors have ever seen themselves as public servants. *** Serendipity; a pleasant surprise. Turned on CBC one day last week to hear Ian Tyson playing some of his favourite songs. One was Wilf Carter singing The Blue Canadian Rockies. Some people think Carter and his yodelling were hokey, but he’s a favourite of mine too. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Our Viewpoint

A few rules for summer fun as heat continues Summer burst into its full glory this week in the Cariboo. Time to fire up the barbecue, head to the beach and enjoy the sun. However, without becoming a total buzz kill, here are a couple of points that seem to need repeating every year. First: Be careful out there. Our regional beaches and lakes are as inviting on hot summer days as they are potentially deadly. Use proper water safety to ensure a tragedy doesn’t result. And keep it alcohol free. Water and alcohol simply do not mix. Not only is it unsafe, it’s illegal. The summer sun is great, but remember it can also can be a killer. Don’t leave your pet in a vehicle for any reason, for any length of time. An open window and a bowl of water won’t help an animal trapped in a hot car. Remember, too, that the sun we miss so much during the winter snow packs a wicked punch.

Recent reports indicate that instances of skin cancer remain high, despite years of warnings. So if you’re going outside, even if the clouds creep in, wear some sunscreen. Second: Be respectful. The simple rule — pack it in, pack it out — seems lost on far too many people. Enjoy that early morning coffee by the lake, but don’t leave the empty cup on the bench for someone else to dispose of. Gathering up all the garbage and leaving it in a green garbage bag by the roadside is a nice thought. And speaking of which: if it’s your dog, what’s left behind is your responsibility. Williams Lake and the surrounding areas have some spectacular parks and walking trails; they’re not made better studded by dog feces. Williams Lake is a great place to be in the summertime. A couple of simple rules can make it even better. - Black Press

hile campfires and camping go hand-in-hand, there is the ever present danger of the smallest spark causing widespread damage to our pristine natural spaces. This week the Cariboo Fire Centre has issued fire bans prohibiting any type of open burning and campfires west of the Fraser River to reduce the risk of any further spread of wildfires in our region. These actions were taken in order to ensure the risk of new fires caused by human activity is reduced and allows firefighters to focus their efforts in preventing and controlling fires already burning. MLA Reality is, nearly Musings half of all wildfires are caused Coralee Oakes by human activity, and these steps had to be taken to eliminate this risk. Campfires are currently allowed east of the Fraser River, but extreme caution must be taken and can only take place where there are no bans are in place by municipal authorities. Any campfire must be under total control and completely extinguished before leaving your site. If your fire does escape, you could be liable for the cost of suppressing the fire and face other penalties. For the latest up-to-date information on all current fire bans and listings of current wildfires burning, please visit bcwildfire.ca or Emergencyinfobc.gov.bc.ca for any information regarding evacuation alerts and info-bulletins. Report any wildfires calling 1-800-663-5555 or *5555 on your cell. Last but not least, I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to all of the men and women of the Cariboo Fire Centre who are protecting our communities against the dangers of wildfire as we speak. Our forest firefighters are doing a tremendous job and should be commended for their bravery and service to our province. Last week, I was pleased to announce a land transfer at the Williams Lake Airport to allow both the airport and Cariboo Fire Centre to have the land necessary to expand their facilities in the decades to come. Coralee Oakes is the MLA for Cariboo North and is the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

More Viewpoints Keep pets out of the oven Question of the week Editor: I cannot believe the amount of people who are dragging their animals around in mobile ovens while they shop or do errands. Today I saw a few cars with all the windows open in parking lots in the heat. So, now you have opened the oven door and the dogs can bake with some air? These are beings who have no choice but to trust you to make intelligent decisions for their wellbeing and you are failing, big time. When it is hot out and you are in your car you know it is hot, regardless of air conditioning or not. So why would you subject a

sentient being to that? Would you leave a child in that car? Then why would you do that to your dog? Or, if you really can’t make your mind up, you sit there in the blazing sun for 20 to 30 minutes with the windows down a couple of inches and see how you hold up. Nice outing, hey? There are also the people who walk their dogs at the hottest time of the day when the pavement is broiling and the dogs foot pads are burning — they are in great stress just to keep up. Or, when the metal in the back of your pickup is too hot to touch, yet you expect your dog to jump right up there and stand for

however long. Or, the people who put great big dogs into small cars (because the dogs like it) and put them at double risk when they cannot breath. Animals are in stress just being outside in this heat as they are not used to it and dogs can only pant to try to maintain some balance of temperature. They need our help as much as possible. Any apartment, basement suite, house or whatever is a kinder place to leave an animal rather than this senseless and cruel habit of putting them in the oven.

A possible downtown solution Editor: What an excellent column Diana French wrote in the July 9 edition of the Williams Lake Tribune about the downtown core. I’m wondering if Diana has heard of the situation in St. John’s, Newfoundland? They are having the same problems but with an excellent

outcome: Council decided to renovate the failing downtown core — it built houses. They sold slowly and council was losing money. They brought in a new manager and he decided to paint them all yellow. Others bought some from council — and painted them all blue.

They’re now selling well and council is finally making a profit. Downtown core problem solved, it seems. A bit radical for us. But what else can we do? Thanks again Diana for an excellent column — the best you’ve written, in my opinion. Pat Cullum Williams Lake

Bottom two per cent not a place to be Editor: Re: Comments from Brian Battison in the Williams Lake Tribune, June 4: “Comments from leadership shocking.” As CEO of the BC First Nations Energy and Mining Council I feel it is important to respond to the June 4, 2014 comments by Brian Battison, Vice President of Taseko Mines Ltd. I first knew of Brian Battison 10 years ago when he was the interim president of the Mining Association of BC, the lobby organization that advocates for mining companies. At that time he was advocating for the Kemess North mining proposal and opposing the First Nations concerns with regard to Amazay Lake. It seemed to me that Mr. Battison simply could not understand why First Nations would not negotiate an agreement in exchange for turning that fishbearing lake into a tailings pond.

Letters aLways weLcome

The First Nations from Kwadacha, Takla and Tsay Keh Dene stated they were not opposed to development but in order for the project to proceed the company had to find an alternative to killing the lake. The federal government rejected Kemess North as proposed at that time. Ten years later that company and those three First Nations have now signed an interim agreement to consider pursuing underground mining of the deposit thus creating less tailings and not requiring a new impoundment area and preserving the pristine nature of Amazay Lake. Mining agreements for new and existing projects are a standard practice across Canada between industry and First Nations. I hope that Taseko will instead support the vision of Chief Joe Alphonse and others who are opposed to projects with unacceptable cultural and environmental impacts while at the same time

reaching out to governments and industry to achieve revenue and profit sharing agreements where mine proposals are acceptable to the First Nation. The Tsilhqot’in Nation has firmly opposed the New Prosperity mine because of its unacceptable cultural impacts and the decision of the federal government to reject that project — twice — must be respected. At the same time, the request by the Tsilhqot’in Nation for the company to negotiate an impact benefit agreement for the Gibraltar Mine is entirely reasonable and a standard practice for business today. My experience is that 98 per cent of companies are prepared to negotiate agreements with First Nations. How long will Mr. Battison insist on being in the bottom two per cent?

Workshop for fungi fans

• Professional Advice

Sean Glanville Staff Writer Around 30 people attended a Mushroom Identification Workshop Thursday night at the Gibraltar Room hosted by Dr. Bill Chapman. “We were pleased with the turnout, there’s only so much interest in trying to attract people to this type of thing,” said Chapman’s wife Louisa. “Our goal is to eventually have a group and form some kind of mycological (study of mushrooms) group in our community.” The Chapmans and many people attending the workshop plan to go on a mushroom foray this fall. “Fall is often a good time for mushroom picking as the weather gets a bit cooler and wetter,” said Chapman. Anybody interested in joining the foray can contact Bill or Louisa at lbchapman@shaw. ca. Bill, who holds a PhD as a soil scientist, can also provide expert advice on anybody with questions about mushrooms. “Many times people find a mushroom and they either want to know what it is or if they can eat it or in some cases they’ve already eaten it and become ill. Bill can often help them identify it,” notes Louisa. Many larger communities like Vancouver and Victoria have mycological clubs and a lot of people pick mushrooms like the pine or morel commercially. Mushroom are actually a hot commercial commodity, especially the morel or fire mushroom as they’re commonly referred to. These mushrooms appear the year after a major forest fire. “After a big fire everybody gets excited and picks hundreds of dollars worth a day. They’re a luxury especially in Europe where people adore them and they go for big bucks,” mentions Louisa. “After the big fires

They continue to be fascinated by the ever increasing nutritional benefits that fungi has been garnering.

“People for years have been saying mushrooms have no nutritional value but they have many health benefits including high-protein and anticancer agents,” he said. Oriental people have been using them to treat illnesses for centuries as well,” points out Chapman.

Metis Jamboree shaping up Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer For the second year in a row, the CaribooChilcotin Metis Association will host its Music Jamboree at McLeese Lake the second weekend of August. Throughout the weekend the McLeese Lake Hall will be filled with music generated by at least 10 bands, said Arnold Lucier of the CCMA who is part of the organizing team. “The music will start at 9 a.m. on Friday and Saturday and goes until 9 p.m.,” he said. Musicians are coming from as far away as Fort St. John, Terrace, Fraser Lake, Valemount, Prince George, Quesnel and Vancouver to join local musicians in celebrating the Metis culture. The line-up includes Ray Leslie and Pat Myers, Perfect Match, Rosetta Paxton, Arnold and his brother Wayne as the Lucier Brothers, Quesnel Jiggers, Skeena North, JJ Lavalee — who has won champion Metis fiddler five years in a row, Tom Salley, Lincoln Merriot, Al Giddons, and Cariboo Thunder. The Guitar Sellers’ Paul Maas is running the sound and providing equipment. On Sunday, however, eight hours will be set

Cariboo-Chilcotin Metis Association representative Arnold Lucier is busy helping to plan the annual Metis Jamboree coming up at McLeese Lake in August. aside for an open jam session. “If people want to come up and play, they will be encouraged to do so,” Lucier said. Last year so many people said they wished they could have played so organizers decided to throw the day open, he explained. The association has

secured the facility for Thursday to begin hauling in food, etc. and on that day the

free camping will open up on a first come first served basis. There will be a full concession stand, serving breakfasts, hamburgers, smokies and deep fried bannock, and chicken or maybe even spaghetti dinners. Geared for families, with no alcohol or drugs allowed, and on site security, Lucier said there are lots of fun activities planned aside from the great food and music. A loonie auction with great prizes to be won such as barbecues, flat screen TVs and bikes will occur. “We have Indian Bingo too,” he said, explaining 15 people stand at a table vying to win one of 10 prizes, during a three-minute round of throwing the dice hoping for pairs. The prizes are wrapped so people don’t even know what they win until they open it and if there is time left and all the prizes are gone, it’s fair game to steal a prize from someone else. Then there’s the lake to swim in, face painting, cotton candy and a scavenger hunt. “There’s lots for kids

to do,” Lucier smiled. He arrived in Williams Lake in 1969 from Manitoba and has helped organize an annual Metis celebration in the summer for almost two decades. For 17 years it was held at Felker Lake, but its popularity meant it outgrew the venue. Last year’s jamboree was so successful at McLeese Lake that the community welcomed them back. The hall has been renovated to be wheelchair accessible and Lucier said it has a gorgeous row of windows along one side with a great view of the lake. Overwhelmed by community support, Lucier said Community Futures gave them $2,500 for their culture-inspired and community minded event. Wristbands for the weekend are $30, a day pass is $15, and children up to 15 years old are free. Passes are available at the Metis Association office at 83 Oliver Street from Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. or call 250392-4428.

Te m p e r at u r e s topped out in the mid 30 degree range Saturday but that didn’t stop close to 200 gardening enthusiasts from taking part in the Williams Lake Garden and Arts Tour. There were nine gardens on the tour where onlookers could appreciate the fruits of labour by local green thumbs. “We had 200 tickets printed and I think we sold all of them. We were very satisfied with the turnout, especially since it was very, very hot Saturday,” said organizer Gerry Gebert. This is third time the event has been held with the first in 2011, then again in 2012 before returning this year after a 2013 absence. Gebert helped start the garden tour back in 2011 after recently moving to Williams Lake from Kelowna. “When I lived in Kelowna I loved going on the garden tours so I thought it would be a great idea to host one in Williams Lake.” The tour gives gardening aficionados the opportunity to share insights and ideas and simply enjoy the love of gardening.

Continued From Page A13 “The garden tour is all about people getting together to share their ideas and knowledge and people always enjoy seeing beautiful gardens,” said Gebert. This edition of the tour was the biggest so far and each of the nine garden venues had either an art or music exhibit on site. “Every venue we had some type of exhibit; this year we had spinners, weavers, quilters, potters, quilters, as well as musicians playing the guitar, flute and Chinese harp,” said Gebert. “This was the largest tour and it gets better each time.” Eight of the gardens were local with one located out of town, Lynette Patenaude’s property at 153 Mile. Other venues included the Seniors Village and residences of Christa Obergfell, Kim Herdman and Michael Rawluk, Leah Selk and Michael Kjelsrud, Lilliana Dragowska, Tina and John StaceSmith, Ming and Ester Wong and Joyce Scarff. “All the venues were very well attended and a number of people took the time to travel to the Patenaude’s at 153 Mile which was really nice to see,” added Gebert. For many of the hosts, gardening plays a huge role in their daily lives and they commit countless hours to their yards. Kim Herdman and Michael Rawluk bought their home on 332 Third Ave. back in 2012 and featured a number of before and after pictures showing how they completely revamped the entire property. The couple has to use cranes and

Big new Harley 750 weighs in light By Alexandra Straub

AUSTIN, TX. – I can’t think of a better time to learn how to ride or a harder time to ride. These juxtaposing thoughts can be explained thusly. There are so many great choices for new riders when it comes to machinery it’s hard to make a decision on what to add to your garage. But the variety also means there are bikes to suit all. Those wanting to get on sportbikes don’t need to start on a 250 or 300 cc, let alone a 600 cc variant. You can get a 125 cc. Or when it comes to cruisers, you don’t have to start on a machine that might be a little on the heavy side. You can get a competent road partner, which looks cool and doesn’t weigh south of 250 kilos. Enter the 2015 Harley-Davidson Street 750. 222 kilos, soaking wet. Hitting streets later this year, it’s the first new bike the American motorcycle maker has concocted from scratch in the last 11 years. The last allnew bike was the V-Rod. And with a blank canvas, Harley could start from the ground up, listen to the voices

‘‘

of the customer and translate that into a cruiser that is tailored to urban riding. On the streets of Austin, Texas, a group of international media had the opportunity to take the new machinery for a test drive. While the majority of the route takes us on long, sweeping stretches of country roads, the Street 750 really shines in slow speed environments. Why does it thrive in an urban setting? – For many reasons, the first being that Harley wanted to create a bike for the city rider. A bike that has a

low-revving yet silky smooth engine and transmission, a low seat height, a favourable suspension – for all the potholes and road imperfections one might encounter –and is a bike on which variety of riders can feel comfortable. Let’s start with its all-new engine. The Street 750 is matched with a liquid-cooled – yes, liquid! - 749 cc, 60-degree, which gives ample acceleration when you need it, particularly when you’re accelerating from a standstill. Not only that, it doesn’t spew unwanted heat towards the rider when they’re idling. And if you’re like me, and wear full gear even on hot, summer days, you’re incredibly grateful for that. Furthermore, it’s paired to a 6-speed transmission. Normally, stop-go traffic on a Harley would be a pain. However, it wasn’t with the 750. It’s the easiest and lightest clutch I’ve worked with on any of the American motorcycle manufacturer’s bikes. Speaking of low seat height, it measures in at 709mm (27.9-inches.) The Harley 750 doesn’t carry some of the bulk people might associate with the

brand. It’s like losing all the weight you put on during the Christmas holiday! It just feels good. When it comes to the 750’s suspension, it’s not jarring and pleasantly soft. Not so soft, that it puts you to sleep, but a good balance of urban comfort mixed with open road riding pleasure. Up front, the 37mm telescopic forks and rear twin tubular externally mounted shocks absorb the bumps in the road and leave the rider feeling fine. However, after a day of logging over 200 kilometres, the rear end does feel a little sleepy! General ergonomics are good, though I would have brought the handlebars a little closer to my body. They’re not a stretch for me, but something that would have made the ride more comfortable. I also would have liked a little more “grab” in the front and rear brakes. It seemed like I really had to bite hard into the front brake to get it to slow down. The logic behind that is

that new riders are less likely to get in trouble in an event where they are nervous and get a little jumpy. Lastly, fit and finish of the bike could have been neater. Wires were exposed, and it took away from the overall

aesthetic. That said the bike does have character to it. The 2015 Street 750 from Harley-Davidson has many good things going for it. And with it tipping the scale at just 222 kg (489 lbs.) – in running order – looks like Christmas

SPORTS NOTEBOOK Monday, July 14 to Thursday, July 17 Angie Mindus/Tribune file photo

Last year’s group of riders for the Tour de Cariboo combined to raise more than $45,000 for Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Williams Lake. The ride is a 75-kilometre bike ride from Williams Lake to Gavin Lake.

Tour de Cariboo registration underway Britany Klingmann Special to Tribune/Advisor Summer is finally here! Time to dust off the bike, pump up the tires, oil the chain and come out to enjoy the spectacular scenery that Williams Lake has to offer. Whether you are an avid cyclist, thinking it’s about time to find a new fitness challenge or just want to support a great local fundraiser, the 22nd annual Tour de Cariboo on Sept. 6, 2014 is the perfect event for you. This is a major fundraiser for Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Williams Lake. All the money raised through the event remains in Williams Lake and benefits more than 100 local children through programs such as Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Couples for Kids, In-School Mentoring, Aboriginal In-School Mentoring and Teen Mentoring. In 2013, over $45,000 was raised. The Tour de Cariboo is a very scenic 75 kilometre bike ride from Williams Lake to Gavin Lake. Some riders are competitive and treat the event as a race while others choose a more leisurely pace to enjoy the journey. Also, if the thought of completing a 75-km hilly ride is too overwhelming, come join the fun as part of a relay team. Encourage friends, family or colleagues to join as a team and train for the event together. The event is a perfect opportunity to meet up with old friends, make new ones, improve your health, fitness and wellbeing as well as enjoy a sense of accomplishment when it is all said and done. For those who are unfamiliar with the format, there are

friendly volunteers located at several checkpoints along the route to offer snacks, drinks, first aid and lots of motivational support. A tasty lunch is provided at the Big Lake Store rest stop. Support vehicles monitor the route and will carry extra gear, assist with mechanical difficulties and offer encouragement when necessary. Once you reach Gavin Lake, there is plenty of time to socialize, shower, swim, or just relax. Gavin Lake has full facilities, cabins and offers various recreational opportunities such as canoeing, fishing and hiking. Massages will be available to riders after completing their journey — a perfect remedy for fatigued muscles! Participants and volunteers are then rewarded with a fabulous buffet supper as well as musical entertainment. Festivities will continue into the evening so take advantage of the heated cabin accommodations at Gavin Lake or bring your own tent or trailer. Registration is $40, and as this is a very important fundraiser for Williams Lake Big Brothers and Big Sisters, each rider is expected to raise a minimum pledge of $100. There are motivational prizes for top pledge earners. Sign up for the Tour de Cariboo today. To register contact Williams Lake Big Brothers and Big Sisters at 250-398-8391 or register online at www.bbswlake.com. Pledges can also be collected online. Stay tuned for upcoming articles with useful tips about training, bike fitting, equipment as well as nutrition and hydration. - Brittany Klingmann, MPT, BSc Kin, CAFCI

Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Williams Lake boxer Stuart McLellan improved his professional record to 11 wins, no losses and three draws late June while making his debut at welterweight, a drop in weight for the pugilist. McLellan, 27 — the Eastern Canadian champion and the NBA Maritime Title holder at middleweight — forced Vancouver’s Steve Conkin’s corner to throw in the towel in the early stages of the third round of a scheduled six-round, 145-pound bout, hosted June 26 at the Deerfoot Inn and Casino in Calgary, Alta. “I felt really strong in there,” McLellan said. “It’s definitely the weight I should be at. The eight-ounce gloves are nice, too. Felt a little faster and it was nice not having the other guy be so strong.” During McLellan’s last several fights at middleweight he said

sports European Football School celebrates 11 years in lakecity Greg Sabatino Staff Writer There’s an undeniable passion Saibo Talic brings to the pitch in his coaching style. In the 11 years he’s been hosting his Vancouver-based European Football School soccer camp in the lakecity many players have experienced it and many more have benefited from his instruction. Close to 100 players split into sessions by age spent Monday to Friday last week at the Esler Sports Complex working on skills and tactical knowledge of the game from Saibo and his coaching staff. There was also a select camp and a coaching clinic held during the early evenings. Saibo, joined by his son, Amar Talic, EFS technical skills coach Steve September, goaltending coach Ryan Ritson, Patrick Logan, Thompson Rivers Uni-

versity WolfPack men’s soccer team head coach John Antulov and local soccer players Vanessa Hansen and Jake Walsh guided players through the paces during the week. “I’m really impressed with the skills of these players,” Saibo said. “It’s been a pleasure to work here in Williams Lake again. There’s lots of quality players in the older group (under 13 to under 18) and the second group (under 13) is also very good.” Saibo — who holds his Canadian license ‘A’ and UEFA licence ‘B’ in coaching — suggested to several of the older players during the fiveday camp they could be groomed to play soccer in Europe as he regularly brings teams from the EFS to compete at tournaments. Last April two Williams Lake players — Justin Hansen and Scott Cramer — both travelled to Europe with Talic for a

series of friendlies. “I think I’m going to send one or two boys from this association for a tryout in Europe and three or four good girls who should look for scholarships,” he said. September, who has been a coach with the EFS since 2001, said he looks forward to coming to Williams Lake for the camp annually. “It’s a fun camp,” he said. “We’re surprised by more athletes coming every year and more people enjoying it. We’ve seen a different level of players coming through so something good is happening at the club level and that’s important to us because it makes our jobs a little easier, too.” Saibo and the EFS host camps in Whistler, Williams Lake, East Vancouver, Salmon Arm, North Vancouver, Kamloops and Squamish throughout the summer.

Texas 4000 70-day bike ride to roll through Williams Lake July 19 The longest annual charity bicycle ride in the world, the Texas 4000 team, will be rolling through Williams Lake on Saturday, July 19, just 50 days after departing from Austin, TX. on to their final destination of Anchorage, Alaska. While in Williams Lake, the 2014 Texas 4000 Team will celebrate and share hope, knowledge and charity with friends and family before continuing on their 70day journey. Seventy-nine undergraduate and graduate students from the University of Texas at Austin brave the rain, sleet, wind, snow, heat and will pedal more than 7,242 kilometres in support of the fight against cancer. Along their journey, riders will volunteer at community events that contribute in the fight against cancer and visit with cancer survivors, patients, caregivers, and family members to make educational presentations about cancer prevention and early detection. They also use this time to offer hope, encouragement and share their personal stories to cancer fighters of all ages and to those who have been affected by the disease. “This ride comes with some obvious physical demands and perhaps less than obvious emotional demands,” said Texas 4000 executive director, Jen Garza. “It’s incredibly encouraging for the riders to be supported by the people of Williams Lake, and have the opportunity to share their stories about how they pursue this ride in hopes of living in a cancer-free society.” In its 11th year, 79 student riders began their journey in Austin on May 31 with a 70-mile community bike ride called ATLAS. From there, the riders head north, separating into three routes: Rockies, Sierra, and Ozarks as they continue on a ride twice as long as the Tour de France. “The ride itself serves as a metaphor for the difficult battle cancer patients wage each day: A long and difficult road, with hard days and easier ones, good days, and not so good days. This is a difficult trip for me on many levels,” said Ben Morse. “But I have known so many people with cancer who bravely,

fiercely, and with determination, fought this dreadful disease. I ride for those people.” Texas 4000 began 11 years ago when Chris

Condit, a University of Texas student and cancer survivor, sought a way to share a message of hope, knowledge and charity to those with cancer. Since

then, Texas 4000 has sent more than 400 riders on their bicycles, traveling more than two million miles to honour those affected by cancer. Collec-

tively, these riders have raised more than $4 million for the fight against cancer, funding cancer research projects at MD Anderson Cancer Center,

The University of Texas Biomedical Engineering Department, and survivorship programs such as the LIVESTRONG Navigational Services Center.

To learn more about the incredible people that make up the Texas 4000 team, to make a donation or read the riders’ blogs, visit www.texas4000.org.
