Toosey man dies in roll over

A young man from Toosey Reserve died Monday following a single vehicle roll over on a rural road. Sgt. Bob Verbree said police were called to the scene about four kilometres up Stack Valley

Road on July 1st at 11:22 a.m. and were on scene by 11:45 a.m. The 24-year-old driver was found deceased and the passenger was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

It appeared that the vehicle rolled over several times, he said. Verbree said police are investigating whether speed and alcohol were contributing factors. The name of the deceased was not released.

Father grieves life lost in crash Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor Cyril Vigeant is living every parent's nightmare. Last week Cyril's son Kyle, 22, died following a single vehicle accident on Chimney Lake Road, under a difficult set of circumstances. “I would like the community to know my son was in no way involved with these people or these thefts,” Mr. Vigeant said last Thursday. Kyle was born and raised in Williams Lake, and worked a variety of jobs in the community before settling in as an Kyle Vigeant. assistant manager at Fast Gas.

Police further said that the group of men (excluding Kyle Vigeant) were also responsible for recent property offences and frauduent activities in the Williams Lake area. “My son was always giving people a second, and third and fourth chance. He said there's always good in someone, you just had to find it. Kyle's biggest mistake was his heart. It always seems to be the good who dies in situations like this.” The Cariboo Advisor would like to extend their deepest sympathies to the Vigeant family. We would also like to apologize to the family for not clarifying enough that Kyle was not personally connected to these suspects. Services for Kyle Vigeant will be held at Compassionate Care Funeral Home at 11 a.m. Saturday, July 6th. A celebration of life will follow at the Elk's Hall at 1 p.m.

Bicycle and horse riders make their way to Williams Lake along Highway 20 Thursday evening for the Williams Lake Stampede. The riders were from the Tsilhqot'in community of Tl' etinqox-t'in (Anaham Reserve First Nations) and set up tents at the old RC Cotton site at the end of Williams Lake.

Police take down suspected crack dealer Williams Lake RCMP shut down a local suspected crack and cocaine dealer twice last week. Police made the first bust last Thursday, July 27, at a crack shack located on 2nd Ave North. According to Insp. Warren Brown, plainclothes and uniformed police officers armed with a search warrant had to batter down a well re-enforced

door. Once inside, the RCMP arrested their intended female suspect along with two others. There were also small children inside. A significant quantity of cocaine was seized along with cash. In total, this was about a $10,000 loss to this suspect's drug business, Brown said. “This is not the first time

this suspect has been arrested for her involvement in the Williams Lake Drug trade,” he said. The following night, on June 28, the RCMP attended the same crack shack for the second night in a row, again with a search warrant. The same suspect along with a family member were again arrested for possessing a quantity of cocaine.

The suspect was scheduled to appear in Williams Lake Provincial Court yesterday. “The Williams Lake RCMP will continue to target drug houses in the community. The Williams Lake RCMP want to encourage people to report drug activity if they suspect it is occurring in their neighborhood. We have a remedy for that!”

Police report quiet Stampede weekend Overall, this was relatively a quiet stampede weekend for the RCMP. There was a high police presence in town to ensure the safety of everyone and to deter unruly behavior. There were approximately 250 calls for service and just over 100 prisoners in custody. The majority of prisoners were arrested for being drunk in a public place (unable to care for themselves) and for causing a disturbance (alcohol a contributing factor). This number is down significantly from past years where 300 plus prisoners were in cells at the Williams Lake Detachment. Prior to the weekend, on June 28, 2013 at 7:30 pm, staff at the Williams Lake Fraser Inn Beer and Wine Store reported that a male tried to steal two fifteen packs of beer and was wearing a bandanna on his face. Staff had locked the door

and the male attempted to kick his way out and smashed the glass in the door. Police arrived and arrested a 15-year-old male who attempted to run away. Police report this same male had been released from custody only hours before after committing theft at the same beer and wine store. Five charges are being forwarded to Crown. The youth was scheduled to appear in court yesterday. Earlier on June 29, police were called to 605 Carson Drive where two vehicles had been broken into sometime overnight. It appeared that the suspect(s) may have tried to steal them as the steering columns had been broken. In the early morning hours on June 29, an alert home owner called police to report that there had been some vehicles broken into on 2nd Ave North. Upon police arrival,

they observed a suspect attempting to steal a vehicle. Upon arresting this male, he punched

the police officer. The male was taken into custody without further incident. This

Fire season underway W i l d f i r e Management Branch aircraft based at the Cariboo Fire Centre in Williams Lake were doing patrols over the region on the weekend, looking for possible lightning-strike holdovers and other smokes. Two wildfires were spotted on Monday, July 1 by these patrols, both in the Chilcotin. The first wildfire, reported at about 3:30 p.m., was approximately 10 kilometres south of Nazko Lake. An Initial Attack crew from the CFC's Puntzi base attended via helicopter, and found the wildfire to be on private land and involving a trailer. The fire did not spread because the area was surrounded by roads. Local RCMP also attended. As of yesterday, the fire has been turned over to the landowner. The second wildfire, reported at about 4 p.m., was approximately eight km south of Scum Lake, burning in slash adjacent to an active logging site/ plantation. Two Initial Attack crews, one from Puntzi and one from Williams Lake, attended and an airtanker actioned the fire with retardant. It was estimated in size at about two hectares. The IA crew from Williams Lake and the Ravens

Two Initial Attack crews, one from Puntzi and one from Williams Lake, attended a human-caused fire at Scum Lake Monday. Crews mopped up the fire yesterday. Unit crew from Alexis Creek returned to the site yesterday to perform mop-up duties. Both of these wildfires were personcaused and are currently under investigation. So far this season, the Chilcotin has seen 26 person-caused fires and one lightning-caused fires. There were also two lightning-caused wildfires on Monday, July 1, both reported by the public. The first fire, reported at about 7:30 p.m., was on the shore of Bootjack Lake near Mount Polley. It was a single tree and was not spreading or threatening any values. An IA crew returned yesterday via helicopter and IA truck for mop-up. This wildfire was the first of any type this season

in the CFC's Horsefly/ Likely region. The second fire, reported at about 8:30 p.m., was on the west side of Dragon Mountain near Quesnel. The caller reported white smoke, but no flames. The CFC's Quesnelbased Response Officer attended yesterday but could not find anything. WMB aircraft from the CFC will be patrolling for holdovers again yesterday, concentrating on the CFC's northeast region (Horsefly/ Likely/Quesnel Lake/ Cariboo Lake/Bowron Lake areas), where there were hundreds, if not thousands, of lightning strikes over the long weekend. Throughout B.C. on Monday, July 1, there were approximately 20,000 light-

ning strikes. There have been a total of 52 wildfires in the CFC so far this season, 43 person-caused and nine lightningcaused, burning 1,063 hectares. The CFC would like to remind the public that there is an open burning prohibition in place, banning any waste, slash or grass fires, which came into effect on April 15. The CFC would also like to remind the public to be vigilant with any type of fire use, including campfires. To report a wildfire or unattended campfire, call 1-800-6635555 or *5555 on your cellphone.

New electrolysis service at Adorn Beauty Naturally When Anna Maria Tippe decided she needed a change in her life, she was the last person to think she’d become a certified electrologist. “I was looking for a change personally. I wanted to do something totally different and I wanted to be helpful,” she says. But it was while Anna Maria was at Adorn Beauty Naturally one day as a customer that gave her the idea that being an electrologist would fit the bill. Anna Maria just received her certification in May after a 500 hour course at Swanson's Canadian Institute of Electrolysis and is excited to get started with her new career at part of the

team at Adorn Beauty Naturally at their new location downtown. “I like helping people, and I’m happy to be doing it.” Anna Maria says she saw firsthand at school the positive results elec-

trolysis can have. “I met women who wouldn’t leave their homes,” she says of women who suffered from unwanted facial hair. She says their lives were improved follow-

ing electrolysis, which is the only permanent method of hair removal that is medically approved and is effective on all skin types and colours. Anna Maria says electrolysis can be performed on all body parts, head to toe. Electrolysis involves the use of a thin filament, a tiny wire, that is slid into the natural opening of the hair follicle. A current is applied sterilizing the area so that the blood supply can no longer stimulate the hair to grow. Anna Maria says the process is very safe, and that Canada Health Guidelines are strictly adhered to and single use sterilized disposable filaments are used. Electrolysis has been performed for over 135 years.

Terror threat on Canada Day Threats of terror hit home in B.C. this weekend. BC RCMP announced yesterday that they arrested a man and a woman for conspiring to carry out a terrorist attack on the B.C. Legislature in Victoria during Canada Day. The two accused John Stuart Nuttall and Amanda Korody, who live in Surrey are accused of taking steps to build explosive devices and place them at the legislature where crowds were expected to gather for Canada Day celebrations. Charges against these individuals include conspiring to place an explosive in or against a place of public use, a government or public facility,

with the intent to cause death or serious bodily injury, for the benefit of, at the direction or in association with a terrorist group. The arrests were apparently the culmination a five-month RCMP investigation named Project SOUVENIR, which was coordinated by the RCMP-led Integrated National Security Enforcement Teams (INSET) in British Columbia and initiated with tips from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS). INSET’s mandate is to detect, deter and dismantle terrorist activities while CSIS is, of course, Canada’s very own spy agency. A s s i s t a n t Commissioner James

Malizia said the suspects were inspired by Al Qaeda ideology but that it was a domestic threat, without international linkages. A s s i s t a n t Commissioner Wayne Rideout said yesterday the behaviour was intended to create maximum impact and harm to Canadian citizens. Rideout said the suspects took steps to educate themselves and produced explosive devices designed to cause injury and death. “The suspects were committed to acts of violence and discussed a wide variety of targets and techniques,” Rideout said yesterday. “In order to ensure public safety, we employed a variety of complex investigative and covert techniques

to control any opportunity the suspects had to commit harm.” You can bet your bottom dollar police ensured they gathered sufficient evidence to send these two away for a long, long period of time following their arrest. These latest arrests are a good example of Canada’s own ability to conduct a little spying on its citizens, just like the Americans are in trouble for doing after Edward Snowden spilled the beans. But you can bet that there are many Canadian citizens who unwittingly took in the Canada Day celebrations at the legislature Monday who are very thankful that the government was in fact listening in.

Editor signs off Readers may notice some changes in the editorial department coming up. Our current editor and mother of three, Angie Mindus, is taking the summer months off to spend time with her family. Sports fans will

rejoice however. The lakecity’s very own soccer fanatic Sean Glanville, who is just finishing his first year of teaching at Alexis Creek, will step in to replace Mindus in the meantime. Summertime doesn’t necessar-

ily mean there is no news either. In fact, Glanville will be put to the test with the highly anticipated and hotly debated Federal Panel Review for proposed New Prosperity Mine coming up later this month. Of course, sum-

mertime is also a great time for sports. So if you have an upcoming event, or if you see news happening give Glanville a call at 250-398-5516. Mindus is scheduled to return to work at the end of August.

The Williams Lake Stampede always draws a large crowd, such as Liam Wells and his friend, Jackson Altwasser from the Fraser River Ranch.

Drinking isn’t all that it is cracked up to be

I was going to name this column ‘Canadian beer parlours I have known and loved’. Except that I never loved any of them. In fact, I hated them! (Hate is a pretty strong word, lets say; I detested them!) Poor excuses for an English pub where locals got together to drank flat beer, ate hearty food and engaged in song around the piano, in fine camaraderie. Not that I have entered too many beer parlours over the years, as except for the regular glass of wine with dinner, I’m not much of a drinker really. And it has been proven that a glass of red wine actually is good for the heart

right? (On the other hand, a bottle consumed, creates a hangover I quickly found out.) My beer hall experience started when I was about five years old and under my grandfather’s care. He took me to one in a local hotel and made me sit on a hard wooden bench hand-

ing me a pack of peanuts, then disappeared for what seemed like hours, to drink beer with his old buddies. He liked to quote W.C. Fields. “My wife drove me to drink, and I’ve been thanking her ever since.” Of course I told all this to my mother as I was quite indignant, even at that age. Gramps got the ’what for’ believe me. Leaving a child alone? Good God! My parents were also frequenters of beer parlours and when I came of age invited me to attend. I couldn’t stand the places, basically large utilitarian rooms that were without culture or decor furnished with formica tables and

metal chairs. What’s worse, they stank of stale beer, cigarette ash and a greasy stench from the kitchen. The bathrooms were usually perfumed by a whiff of vomit seeping through the heavy smell of bleach. There was always a drunk or two passed out at the tables and when the places were full (which was often), the cacophony of voices and slurred dialogue overrode any decent conversation one might have. Most times one had to shout to be heard. Why anyone would want social discourse of that kind was beyond me. Some of the rural beer halls did provide some diversion in the

form of fights among patrons which made it sometimes necessary to dodge flying chairs and glasses. There was one attempt at civility in those days, by providing separate entrances, one for men and the other for ‘ladies and escorts’. In terms of more sensible drinking places, one of my women acquaintances has decided to create an old ladies drinking club, where they meet at each other’s houses and have their own happy hour. Sounds like a good idea to me. Drinking and driving don’t mix, and there is always the opportunity to flake out on someone’s couch if you

imbibe to much. Back to beer. Apparently there is even a recipe for beer pie. How’s that work? Seems to me, they should issue eaters with a mop, that way when they wring it out, they don’t waste any. We Canadians consume 2.3 billion litres of it per year at a cost of 18 billion dollars. No small change. The Yukon apparently, has the highest drinking rate, 180 litres per year, per person. (Must be the hangover capital of Canada.) Ten percent of Canadians are alcoholics, yet it is stated that people who drink, live longer. So is alcohol good for you? Well I say, ask your liver.

Drunkenness leads too often to misery and complaint. My mother said she drank to forget her troubles. No doubt when the booze kicks in, things turn out to be a lot funnier than when you are into sobriety. Mind you, its all attitude of mind I think. So apart from my observations, I pass no judgment on those who drink to get drunk. Who am I to stand between someone and their life lesson? Believe me if I could set things straight I would, but that is not my calling and those who would contest my views are allowed to do so, just so long as they are sober.

Panel review hearings on the way Mayor Kerry Cook The New Prosperity Mine panel review hearings are scheduled to begin July 22, and will last for no more than 30 days. This is the final stage of the public review process. These

hearings are an opportunity for the pubic to give their views on the project and its relationship to the future of the Cariboo. New Prosperity represents $1 billion investment in the region.

After the public hearings, the Review Panel will have a maximum of 70 days to write and submit a report to the federal Minister of Environment. The Government of Canada will then have a maxi-

mum of 120 days to decide if it will grant authorization for the project to go ahead. The Ministry of Transportation held its third meeting on the proposed four-laning of Highway 97 on a stretch

between Carson Drive and Fox Mountain yesterday. This is a huge, important project that will improve safety on this stretch of the highway, and will have some impacts on City streets nearby.

in something related to the Stampede. These kinds of events gets folks out and into the city to take part in the celebrations. The business community and service organizations also steps up to the plate through these fun and promotional times for Williams Lake.

We are very fortunate in Williams Lake. We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a major flood, hurricane, devastating fires or any other mother nature freaks of weather. Some folks had been complaining in the lakecity about how much rain we have had but what about the poor people in Calgary, High River and other parts of the country who have been saturat-

ed with way too much wet stuff. The folks in Calgary are pretty resilient people considering how many were forced out of their homes last week. Everyone in that city has taken up the cause and helped neighbours or have volunteered in many other ways. The Calgary Stampede may be the heart of that City and it was simply amazing how many volunteers worked at the Stampede grounds so they could be ready for opening day. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to matter what kinds of disasters we have faced in this country, Canadians on a whole

Volunteers are the heart and soul of communities The 87th annual Williams Lake Stampede is now in the history books. What a Stampede! The clouds parted and we had some pretty decent weather since last Friday. What always amazes me at the Stampede, is how people of the community come together and give of their time freely volunteering. The Stampede or for that matter, a lot of what goes on in this community, would not happen if it were not for the many, many volunteers. These folks are those who take time away from the families and friends in order to spend 25 minutes or several hours of a long weekend helping

Williams Lake came alive with sounds of live music at the 2013 Downtown Street Party Saturday. Hundreds of people stayed downtown after the Stampede Parade to take in the event, which saw more than 40 street vendors, five stages with live music and a Lakers Car Club exhibit fill the streets.

Swim to Survive Pilot Project launched in Williams Lake Williams Lake – The City of Williams Lake and the Cariboo Regional District recently received funding for a drowning prevention program for local students called Swim to Survive. A $264 grant from the Lifesaving Society of BC will allow grade three students from Marie Sharpe Elementary School to participate in three swimming lessons at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. The Swim to Survive program aims to provide children with the minimum swimming skills needed to survive an unexpected fall into water. The goal of this

important program is to reduce drowning by 50 per cent over the next 10 years. “Drowning is a leading cause of preventable death in Canada, and 60 per cent of Canadian children have never taken swimming lessons,” says Acting Mayor Sue Zacharias. “We’re proud to offer this program to provide the basic skills necessary to keep children safe in the water.” “As a matter of life safety, all children should learn to swim,” stated Central Cariboo Joint Committee Co-Chair and CRD Director Joan Sorley. The Cariboo Chilcotin encompasses

many lakes, rivers and waterways, and teaching grade three students some basic swimming and survival skills is a positive step.” “This pilot program is a great way to introduce the Swim to Survive program to the District,” stated School District 27, Superintendent of Schools, Mark Thiessen. “We hope to partner with the City and CRD to apply for additional funding for more schools during the winter months.” Based on the outcomes of the program, the City may apply for additional funding this fall to offer the program to other schools.

Get your lawn chairs ready and prepare for a musical celebration for the whole family every Thursday night in Boitanio Park this summer. Presented by the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society, the Cariboo Regional District and the City of Williams Lake, this year’s line-up for Performances in the Park summer concert series is sure to please. Thanks to the support from the City of Williams Lake, the Cariboo Regional District and local sponsors, the stage will light up in Boitanio Park each Thursday evening from July 4th to August 22nd, 2013 with talented local and provincial performers. From 6 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. and then from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. each night will be filled with family friendly enter-

tainment. Having two time slots provides opportunity for young performers to grow their stage legs and on some nights there will be two main acts. The series kicks off on July 4th with Angelkeys Music Studio, featuring the sweet voices of Angelkeys Children’s Choir and solo performances by very talented young singers followed by the toe tapping tunes of the Old Time Fiddlers. Michelle Erlandson and Music for Life will be featured on July 11 followed by Colin Easthope and the Coal Harbour Band. This rising Canadian songsmith fills the air with warm harmonic tones and a surprising sincerity. Some of the band members hail from Williams Lake in times past. July 18th will see Williams Lake Youth Fiddlers and Friends

take the stage, followed by the high-energy, uptempo and spacey electro funk rock of Brent Morton and his new act ‘When the Walls Bend’ are sure to entertain. Williams Lake’s got Talent on July 25th features young Williams Lake singers who delight and mesmerise audiences with jazz and folk songs, followed by the foot-stomping country gospel tunes of New Journey. August 1st will feature the Eagle Spirit Band’s country rock and Jordan Holmes will take you through a fusion of blues, folk, soul and Eastern music to journey through dreamscapes and drift on afternoon clouds. The up-and-coming rock band Beautifully Haunting is playing original tunes on August 8th followed by Perfect Match, who are playing cross-over country, pop,

light rock with lively originals that are easy on the ear and good for the heart. Locals Robyn Ferguson and Oren Barter are teaming up on August 15th and Brett Wildeman will charm the audience with raw coastal folk inspired by his upbringing in a rural coastal environment. The final performance night on August 22nd will see Rowan, Kylie and Sam, a trio originally from Williams Lake, singing covers and original tunes, and My Wife’s Quartet, an experienced and talented group of musicians who will play to your heart and soul. Please check out www.facebook.com/performancesinthepark or www.centralcaribooarts. com/performances.html for updates, details and pictures from the summer Performances in the Park concerts.

Get out your dancing shoes, because the 8th annual Arts on the Fly music and dance festival is just around the corner. Arts on the Fly features bands from across Canada and local favorites performing outdoors at the popular summertime festival in downtown Horsefly starting Friday night July 12 and running through until Saturday night, July 13. Growing from a single day festival in 2006, the festival now attracts audiences from across western Canada and beyond, with acts from around the world com-

ing to this small beautiful town. Friday night opens at 6:30pm with a special opening ceremony and continues with a full night of entertainment. Saturday opens at noon with local acts and continues until late night with entertaining and danceable bands. This year’s festival includes the sublime early jazz trio the Company B Jazz Band as well as the groovy polyrhythms of DRUMHAND, the funky rootsy Dixieland sounds of The F-Holes, African drumming

troupe Kunda, songster/ balladeers Scott Cook and Ben Rogers and the Black Oats, blues funksters Apollo Cruz, gypsy jazz folkies The Rakish Angles, the soulful R&B of High Society, and the reggae rhythms of Third Branch. It also includes local favorites Sam & Rowan, Marin Patenaude, and Pharis & Jason Romero. Both days will showcase “tweener” acts primarily by local and regional youth, and Saturday will also feature an all-acoustic stage where many of the performers who are on

the main stage will get a chance to play in an intimate setting for a listening audience. Festival goers can take part in workshops (songwriting, singing, dancing and more), wander through the food and wares vendors market, enjoy a delicious meal by chef Martin Comtois, or bring the young ones to Saturday’s Kids’ Zone. The Kids’ Zone this year will run most of the day Saturday, with workshops where kids can make a hulahoop, recycled key mobiles and wind chimes, or enjoy a nature walk and nature-inspired crafts with guest presenters the Scout Island Nature Center. Advance tickets are available online at www. artsonthefly.com/tickets.html, in Horsefly at Clarke’s General Store, or in Williams Lake at the Bean Counter. Children 12 and under are welcomed free to the festival, and youth (1318) and seniors (65+) enjoy special discounted rates. For more information or to volunteer at the festival, please call 250-620-0592, email pharisromero@gmail. com or visit www.artsonthefly.com.

High calibre rugby dominated the fields at Ottoman during the annual Stampede Rugby Tournament Saturday and Sunday. All three of Williams Lake's teams -- the Hustlers, the Rustlers and the Old Boys team - won in their division, making sweet and sweeping history for the local rugby club.

Top international rugby players, like this big fella from Somoa, came to town for the high calibre Williams Lake Stampede Rugby tournament.

football club teams, who swept the 34th annual Williams Lake Stampede Rugby tournament on the weekend. "It's unbelievable,” said tournament co-organizer, Todd Pritchard of the amazing and rare feat accomplished by local athletes, particularly the final matchup against the Rustlers versus Meralomas. “It's an incredible accomplishment that I don't expect to ever happen again in my lifetime. It still gives me shivers. It was one of the most exciting games I've ever seen up there.” The Hustlers girls' team, coached by Paul Carnes, was also successful in defending their title, winning their fourth in a row with a victory

over Capalino of West Vancouver 10-5. In the hard fought game, the girls sealed the win with tries by Carola Kreis and Sheridan Davis. The Williams Lake Hustlers were undefeated winning 46-0 against Vixen, 17-0 against Scrumbags and 42-0 against United. Coach Carnes said notable performances by Anna Navarot, Jasmine Niquedet, Claire Lawrence, Pam Lawrence, Krystal Carpenter, Kyla Wejr and Kim Newsome secured the trophy. The Old Boys team tasted victory by Saturday night, winning both of their games against Abbotsford, last year’s champs, 15-10 and 15-5. In the men’s division, the Rustlers had

an early win against defending champions North Vancouver's Capilano 26 - 14, before beating Grande Prairie 35-12, and heading into the quarter finals where they won against Burnaby Lake 22-5. In semi-finals action, the Rustlers overtook Abbotsford 57-0. But it was the final game that still had everyone talking yesterday, with a match up that saw the Rustlers tie up the game against Meralomas, one of the top five teams in Canada, with no time left on the clock, and then go on to win 29-24 in overtime. “It was such a massive and significant game,” said team manager Rodger Stewart. “Just a high quality,

Williams Lake teams earned major bragging rights at the tournament, sweeping all the top spots. exhilarating game with such an outstanding outcome for our rugby club. It was awesome to watch it unfold.” Stewart said the win was the result of a perfect storm of players

coming together under the coaching of Nathan Stewart, Riley Ilnicki and Brendan Pritchard. “They worked hard to build and fuse a team together ... and everything aligned and

the design worked. It’s a hell of a story.” Most Valuable Player for the Rustlers was Kane Wyatt, for the Hustlers was Kelsey Bisaro and for the Old Boys was Derek Funk.

Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor There was great racing action and hundreds of fans at the Thunder Mountain Speedway for Stampede racing Friday and Saturday night. Thunder Mountain president Tim Westwick said the weekend was a great success with fans and racers coming from across the province. “It was one of the best Stampede turn outs we’ve seen in a long time.” By fan applause, Mike Wilson won Friday night’s crowdpleasing smoke show. Crash to Pass had many entries, with Brian Bettles taking first, Jason Howlett placing second and Kelly McDonald cap-

turing third. Saturday night saw an All Class Invitational race.

Jarret Bond (Ft. St. John) Pro-Minis – #51 Billy Beasley During one of the races Saturday night Westwick said there was incidental contact going into the corner, causing a car to explode on impact. Westwick said the accident was a scary one, but the young driver was able to get out of the car and stop, drop and roll while the safety crew also responded quickly to help. Westwick said the 14-year-old driver is doing well, and is recovering from some second degree burns in hospital. Next event at Thunder Mountain is July 27th for the Christmas in July event.

Barkerville Theatre Royal Gala Opening by Chris Nickless Sunshine, blue skies, bears, fox and enthusiastic theatre goers were all part of the Gala Opening day for Newman and Wright’s Theatre Royal in Barkerville June 15. The afternoon reception saw dignitaries from Prince George, Quesnel, The Cariboo Regional District and the South Cariboo partake of a sumptuous dim sum buffet while Barkerville’s operations manager James Douglas welcomed guests and told the attendees about some exciting things in the future for the provincial heritage site. Newman and Wright’s afternoon and evening performances were well attended and proved to be equally, if not greater than performances in years past. No visit to Barkerville is complete without taking in one or more of the Theatre Royal’s most excellent productions. Well done Richard, Amy and the whole theatre group. At the evening performance, a short but hilarious auction took place, helping the theatre’s bank account but more importantly providing a highly entertaining bonus for all the attendees. A visit to the Barkerville Historic Site and Theatre Royal should be a bucket-list must for this year.

HOrOscOpe You don’t need to hide behind a mask, Aries. Let your true feelings be shown and you will gain more respect for having done so. If you meet resistance, try again. Don’t worry about a missed opportunity this week, Taurus. You will get a second chance and make the most of that welldeserved opportunity. Gemini, you will need to find ways to sure up a plan of action before you can start to move forward. You may want to seek advice from Pisces.

Cancer, keep trying even if you feel as though your efforts are getting you nowhere. Eventually you will make a breakthrough, and all that hard work will pay off.

Last Week’s Answers

Virgo, you may experience a scare, but it will be short-lived and you will recover quickly. The rest of the week may prove uneventful, but do your best to stay busy.

Tips and tricks for cooking on an open campfire Hope you had enough hamburgers and steaks during the 87th annual Williams Lake Stampede. There is nothing as nice as having some good weather so you can spend most of your free time in the outdoors of the beautiful Cariboo Chilcotin. Planning on doing some camping this summer? While you are enjoying Mother Nature this summer do just a little planning before the trip, when it comes to the meals. You can cook over the barbecue or on top of a campfire, or on a campstove, and it is

true that things taste better outside, even if perhaps the food sometimes gets a little crusty on occasions. It’s easy to get distracted in the summer time, in the outdoors. Because there is so much fresh produce and fruit now, make sure these goodies also go along on your camping trip. Good utensils,

like a cast iron pot or frying pan for campfire cooking. One of the best friends you can have when cooking outside, is some tin foil. You can use it on the barbecue or the campfire to cook almost anything. Make sure you have nice coals to cook your favourite camp meal, too much fire will give your foods a blackened look pretty quickly. Try a rack of pork ribs cooked on hot campfire coals. I like to use a dry rub and a cooking time of at least 30 minutes. The smoke from the wood will give the ribs a nice taste.

Leo, take care of a few things early in the week and then enjoy some much-needed and welldeserved rest and relaxation. Put travel at the top of your to-do list.

Libra, you may be secondguessing an earlier decision that you now find isn’t working out exactly as you had hoped. It is not too late to take a different path. Scorpio, spend some quality time at home if you have been away for awhile. Time spent with your loved ones will reinvigorate you and put some hop back in your step. Sagittarius, step out of the shadows for a bit this week to get the praise and recognition you deserve. There’s no shame in accepting the gratitude of others. Capricorn, your focus on the future may be making it difficult for you to see what is right in front of you. Take stock of your immediate future and you’ll be glad you did. Aquarius, expect to tackle many things on your to-do list this week. While you are feeling motivated, keep going. You may accomplish a lot more.

Corn on the cob and some nice veggies done in tin foil with a dab of butter, gives this an

easy to cook campfire recipe. Bye for now and Goood Cooking.

Pisces, sometimes you will have to make sacrifices, and this week you may find yourself putting others first. You thrive at being selfless.
