Have you ever played binocular soccer? Neither had (from right) Trevor Jacques, 10, Isaiah Smith, 9, staff member Brooke Vanderhoek, 16, and Cade Enns, 11, who clumsily attempt to find the net Tuesday morning during the 8th Annual Spirit of the Game Basketball Camp. The camp is hosted annually by the Cariboo Community Church which, this year, recruited a youth group from Abbotsford to come help coach. The camp ran Monday to Thursday in Williams Lake at Cataline elementary, then shifted to Alkali Lake for an afternoon camp there. Greg Sabatino photo
Invoice scams can be hard to spot MONICA LAMB-YORSKI Tribune Staff Writer Throughout March, local media in Williams Lake has teamed up with the RCMP to focus on the top ten scams identified by the Better Business Bureau. March is billed as Fraud Awareness Month and each week the Tribune has highlighted two or three from the top 10 scams. The first week explained advertising trolls, online romance scams, and internet investment fraud. In week two, it was affinity fraud, curbers, which are used-car “traffickers,” and rogue door-to-door contractors. Last week computer virus fixing schemes and twisted text prices were explored. In this the final week, pretender invoices and fake complaint emails are discussed. The BBB says a “pretender
scheme” happens when a scammer sends an invoice or bill requesting payment for goods or services. These invoices may state the recipient is past the due date for payment and threaten that non-payment will affect a credit rating. The invoices are fake and are for goods and services a person has not received or requested. “For example, you might be sent an invoice for a domain name that is very similar to your current domain name or for a small amount of stationery,” the BBB warns. “The scammer hopes that you don’t notice the difference and just pay the invoice.” It is important that employees paying invoices check that a purchase order is in place before paying any invoice. Tribune accountant Phylis LaFlamme says for years she’s seen one particular fake invoice come
through. “We will get one from Yellow Page and it’s usually faxed. Nobody’s contacted you to advertise. The trick is the word page, the real company is Yellow Pages,” LaFlamme explains. All bogus invoice schemes should be reported to the Canadian AntiFraud Centre at www.antifraudcentre.ca. The fake complaint e-mails are actually a BBB phishing scam. “Yep, it’s us,” the BBB says. “Hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of people have received e-mails that very much look like an official notice from the BBB.” The e-mail subject line will read “Complaint Against Your Business,” and instruct the recipient to either click on a link or open an attachment to get the details. “If the recipient does either, a malicious virus is launched on their

computer. A virus that can steal banking information, passwords and other critical pieces of information needed for cyber-theft.” Through working with security consultants and federal law enforcement to track down the source of these e-mails, BBB has shut down dozens of hijacked websites. Anyone who has opened an attachment or clicked a link should run a complete system scan using reputable anti-virus software. And, says the BBB, if the computer is networked with others, all machines in the network need to be scanned. One of the tools BBB will be using to provide helpful tips is a Twitter hash tag #justincase and encourages Twitter users to add their own tips using the same hashtag.

Carbon offsets ‘not credible,’ auditor says Tom Fletcher Black Press Two carbon capture projects that were the largest beneficiaries of B.C.’s multi-million-dollar “carbon neutral government” program did not provide credible carbon offsets for emissions from government operations, Auditor General John Doyle concludes. In a report released Wednesday, Doyle said a West Kootenay forest reserve called Darkwoods and a flaring elimination project by EnCana Corp. at its Fort Nelson natural gas operations accounted for nearly 70 per cent of carbon credits paid by the government’s agency, the Pacific Carbon Trust. “EnCana’s project was projected to be more financially beneficial to the company than its previous practices, regardless of offset revenue, while the Darkwoods property was acquired without offsets being a critical factor in the decision,” Doyle’s report
states. “In industry terms, they would be known as ‘free riders’ – receiving revenue ($6 million between the two) for something that would have happened anyway.” Darkwoods, a 55,000-hectare property near Kootenay Lake, was purchased as a forest reserve by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 2008. Doyle notes that the decision to buy the land was made in 2006, and a carbon offset feasibility study was not completed until January, 2009. EnCana’s project diverted gas from flares to drilling. The audit found that “the company started the project in 2008 and had already converted many gas wells by the time they met with the Pacific Carbon Trust in 2009,” and the offset payments were not a factor in the decision to proceed. B.C.’s “carbon neutral government” initiative has been controversial since it was launched as part of former premier
Gordon Campbell’s climate change program in 2008. Provincial and local governments, health authorities and school districts were required to buy carbon offset credits equal to the greenhouse gas emissions from their buildings and vehicles, with the money invested in carbon-reducing projects. According to the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation, B.C. universities paid $4.46 million into
the Pacific Carbon Trust in 2011. B.C.’s 60 school districts paid a total of $5.36 million the same year, and the province’s six health authorities paid $5.79 million. Environment Minister Terry Lake said the government “fundamentally rejects” Doyle’s conclusions, and stands by the outside experts who were called on to validate the carbon offset investments. NDP environment crit-
ic Rob Fleming said the report adds to earlier criticisms of a program that diverts taxpayer funds from schools and hospitals to finance industrial projects by profitable companies. The government responded to earlier criticism by diverting $10 million taken from school districts in the past two year into a fund to improve energy efficiency in school buildings and vehicles.

NEWS You gotta eat here
When they were growing up my kids loved my mother’s pancakes. No matter how I mixed them, my own always came up a distant second. I finally asked for the recipe and when Mom stopped laughing she said, “For heaven’s sakes. They’re Aunt Jemima!” Even when I used the exact same mix the kids still preferred Grandma’s. When I asked why they said Grandma’s pancakes were made with love, hoping to get a rise out of me, but there was truth to it as well. I love my kids and I made meals for them every day for almost twenty years, but my time in the kitchen could never be mistaken for enthusiastic. I hated them eating processed food and they were not fans of my health at-

tacks. I would labour for two hours to create nutritious meals from scratch only to have them grumble. I would bring home a frozen pizza in a box and they would practically throw me a parade. I would swing between grouchy and guilty; no wonder no one could taste the love! We finally came to an agreement on a handful of medium healthy home cooked meals I made over and over. It’s strange how much pleasure I get from vegetable gar-
dening and yet that doesn’t seem to carry through to the kitchen. If I lived alone I would be just like Ruth Stout from a couple columns ago and sell my pots and pans. I’d live on nothing but raw fruit and vegetables. And maybe some honey and toast. Sometimes I watch that restaurant show “You Gotta Eat Here” that hunts down eatery gems all across Canada. The joy and pride in the chef’s face when host John Catucci bites into a meal she made almost makes me cry. She watches John roll his eyes and swoon over how good it tastes and you can tell that’s all the payment she needs. It is such a beautiful, selfless thing to cook for another person’s pleasure and to take such de-

light in it. Chefs are such beautiful people. Well, except for that Gordon Ramsay character. He’s just mean. I know several people who love to cook so much they have opened their own restaurants. They’re like aliens to me. I am completely mystified by them, but curious too. They refer to their restaurants as their “dream.” All I can think is how in the world can slaving over a hot stove all day be anyone’s dream? For me dream cooking is making a big pot of chili, knowing there will be leftovers so I won’t have to cook for three days. Clearly I am not beautiful people. My sister in law owns the restaurant at the Dawson Creek airport. She amazes me. She works
as hard as anyone I know. Cooking has been her lifelong creativity and she has perfected it into an art form. Sometimes I dream about her cinnamon buns. Whenever I eat there it’s all I can do to stop myself from licking the plate when I’m finished; it’s that good. My kids would say there is love stirred into every bite. And I agree. Jewel McKinnon is beautiful people. Last week we went for lunch at The Diamond Willow Retreat. The restaurant is set up in a converted barn on an acreage located a few minutes beyond city limits. The place oozed with the sort of ambience you can’t get by hiring a designer. There were antiques and used books for sale and local musicians that raised

When you read that regular exercise is good for you, the exercise doesn’t have to be jogging or walking. One of the best forms of exercise is swimming. The water keeps you buoyant so there is less stress on your joints because it’s not a weight-bearing exercise. Aerobics swimming classes can help you lose weight and improve your mental health as well. We often hear about the dangers of drinking too many cola drinks. Besides a high sugar content, cola soft drinks also contain phosphoric acid which can reduce the absorption of calcium from the intestinal tract. This can lead to a lower bone density. If you are used to having a soft drink every day, try sparkling water. Over the past year, there have been many shortages of certain medications necessitating changes in brands. Our pharmacists will alert you when there is a change. But if your medication looks different than it did on previous refills, call your pharmacist.

Former chief wants First Nations forum on New Prosperity proposal MONICA LAMB-YORSKI Former chief Ervin Charleyboy would like to host an all First Nations forum about Taseko Mines Ltd.’s New Prosperity Mine proposal to develop an open pit gold-copper mine located 124 kilometres southwest of Williams Lake. While he has no specific plans in place yet,
Charleyboy said there has not been a general assembly for the Tsilhqot’in Nation for more than three years, and he thinks it’s time. A forum or general assembly would give all First Nations an opportunity to share opinions about the mine. Charleyboy has consistently voiced support of New Prosperity, although in the past he
was dead against it. “I’m in favour of the mine today,” he said. “Our young people need jobs.” Charleyboy told the Tribune he wants meet one-on-one with each chief of the six communities within the Tsilhqot’in Nation.

NEWS More mom musings on the strap
I told you some of my mom’s story last month – her impossible survival at birth – and I had many interested comments about it so I want to share a few funny bits, too. We heard many stories over the years about her unique experiences. One story is about a time my mom, trying desperately to drive and fend off three overly rambunctious young children in the back seat at the same time, told us very sternly she would pull over next time she had to tell us to “smarten up.” We knew right away what she meant and our heads briefly flooded with visions of the strap, (that short length of leather she frequently threatened to use but rarely did). However, the threat was not enough to stop the shenanigans and, when she got hit

by one of the flying “missiles,” she immediately screeched to a stop on the side of the road, reached into her purse and brought out the strap, turning around to give us a well-deserved swat. At that very moment, the passenger door flew open and into the front seat hopped a breathless, very grubby young man with a big toothless grin. She had been distracted and not noticed the hitchhiker as she pulled over so imagine her surprise when he jumped, mumbling “thanks, lady.”
He took one look at the strap and said: “thanks, lady” again as he quickly jumped out! We all howled with laughter at the look on his face! Another time, when the town minister was visiting, mom turned to scold my sister for being so noisy while they were trying to talk. To her horror, my sister cringed away like a beaten dog, as if in terror. The minister gasped and left the house without a word! Ever after, mom told us, the minister was “extremely cool” to her. Once, on a trip to Hawaii, she and my cousin were looking out the window of the hotel and noticed a big party going on in the penthouse of the next building. Looking for adventure (and on a bit of a dare), the two of them went right on over and
bluffed their way into the party, waving their drink glasses cheekily at their husbands

And, be ready to laugh along to the antics of rodeo clown and barrel man, Dennis Halstead. “I want to do the best job I can do and that involves trying to get better every day,” said Gardiner, an eight-year veteran in rodeo announcing. “So goals? Yeah, I have lots. And I hope one day I can accomplish them all.” And with spring in the air, C+ Rodeos guarantees to provide stock that will undoubtedly treat fans to an exciting performance.

Ottawa takes lead on training
B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER
The B.C. election campaign that’s about to get underway will feature lots of talk about skills training. It will be everyone’s top priority, along with a dozen other top priorities. But since elections are no time to deal with serious issues, don’t expect much frank discussion about ways to redirect our increasingly soft, urban society toward useful work. Somebody might be offended. The B.C. Liberals see lots of skilled, technical jobs on the horizon, but they cut their skills training budget and many of their MLAs are also looking at a career change. The B.C. school system, like that of other provinces, still pushes kids to university programs that lead to coffee-serving jobs and the need for another round of training. This has been going on since the 1970s, and it’s not confined to B.C. The B.C. NDP apparently expects to coast to victory with the same empty rhetoric about “income inequality” and student debt that they’ve been using for years. Their only discernible intent is to return control over how many apprentices can be on a job site to industrial unions, which severely restrict it, squeezing out small business. This team’s ideas are mostly left over from the last
industrial revolution. Fortunately there is a midterm federal government that has acted. Last week’s federal budget launches new programs that the next B.C. government will have to go along with. Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government didn’t claw back post-secondary funds from B.C. and other inept provinces, as some had feared. What we got from Ottawa was social engineering, Conservative style. The centrepiece is the “Canada Job Grant,” a $5,000 grant to employers willing to match it and train
an unemployed person. To qualify, the province has to match as well, for a total $15,000 commitment to one worker who will have a job to go to. Delta-Richmond East MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay was one of the Conservatives out to promote the budget. She said when the Canada Job Grant is fully rolled out, it will fund training for 130,000 people a year. Some will be young people, but there will also be older workers whose skills need upgrading. “If they’re willing to look at the jobs that are available
and understand that that’s their best shot at making a living and being able to support their own families some day, we want to be sure that the opportunities are there,” Findlay said. The difference is that it has to be what an employer needs, not what the student might prefer. It’s a publicprivate partnership, as we have seen with modern public works. Findlay acknowledged that even with a big push on training, Canada will still need to import foreign workers. In B.C. we are bracing for
an unprecedented resource boom, much of it in the B.C. Interior and north. That’s one reason for a $241 million increase over five years to the federal Income Assistance Program for aboriginal reserves. The new money is available only if the community leadership commits to a mandatory training component. They didn’t call it Idle No More, but that’s the gist of it. Of course, no worker or province or band council is required to participate. They have the option to leave the federal money on the table.
But the NDP should note that the Canada Job Grant applies to union-run apprenticeship schools as well as those in community colleges and technical institutes. Saying no isn’t much of a choice. Whatever grand promises the B.C. Liberals and NDP have written into their yetto-be-released election platforms, they will need to find the money to participate.

Ferry route cuts known by summer TOM FLETCHER Black Press Coastal ferry users are braced for reduced sailings on some underused routes, and many are open to cable ferries, barges, passenger-only vessels or even bridges where practical to contain rising costs. Transportation Minister Mary Polak released the government’s consultation report Tuesday on ways to save $26 million on operations by 2016. That was the target set by BC Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee after he was appointed last year. About 4,000 people took part in the consultation, with more than half saying they agree with the need to reduce costs. When the government announced the service review last year, it added an
Friday, March 29, 2013 Williams Lake Weekend
extra $20 million to the subsidy for the service over four years, bringing the total taxpayer subsidy to about $180 million per year. Polak said specific service cuts won’t be made public until June 30 at the earliest, and the government may extend that deadline after reviewing the consultation results with BC Ferries. She denied that the timing was chosen to push the unpopular move past the May 14 election. “If the idea was to stay away from discussion of potential cuts during an election period, I dare say we would not have embarked on the consultation,” Polak said. “We were very up-front in putting out the utilization numbers so people can see where the challenges were and where there will likely be cuts.”
Last year BC Ferries cut sailings on the Duke Point-Nanaimo run, which was losing an average of $50 per vehicle carried. BC Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan said the corporation expected to cut at least 100 sailings on its major Vancouver Island routes, mostly lowridership runs late in the evenings. NDP transportation critic Maurine Karagianis wouldn’t commit to increasing the taxpayer subsidy or any specific action, such as returning BC Ferries to Crown corporation status. “If we treat it like transportation infrastructure, the same as bridges, rail, roads, that’s a slightly different approach to the ferry system,” Karagianis said. “At the end of the day, we need to see some cost savings.”
As expected, raising property taxes or fuel taxes in coastal communities to help pay for ferry service was an unpopular choice, endorsed by only 20 per cent of participants. Most called for ferries to be funded by all B.C. taxpayers or by the users themselves. A call for “innovative ideas” also produced few surprises. The top suggestion in consultation meetings and written feedback was to reduce fares to increase ridership, an experiment that BC Ferries has tried several times on major routes with no success. BC Ferries has found that ferry use is declining on B.C.’s free inland ferries and other jurisdictions such as Washington state, as people choose to travel less because of the cost of fuel and other factors.

Fish and Bird house concert coming up Fish and Bird, the five-piece, indi-folk powerhouse that performed at Arts on the Fly in Horsefly last summer, is returning to Horsefly for a house concert on Saturday, April 6. The concert takes place at Geoff Patenaude’s home on 108 Mile Road in Horsefly, starting at 8 p.m., says event organizer Pharis Romero. Fish and Bird began in Victoria in 2006 as an acoustic duo, comprised of Taylor
Ashton (banjo, guitar, vocals) and Adam Iredale-Gray (fiddle). On their 2007 self titled debut, their take on folk included original songs in odd time signatures and traditional murder ballads with rock beats. The 2009 their Left Brain Blues CD was a more mature exploration of the space between folk traditions and reckless creativity, with Ashton and Gray playing multiple instruments on each song, and toying with
the formats that inspired them. Some of the friends they enlisted to help fill out the sound on the record and at live shows eventually became permanent members of the band, and now Fish & Bird is the five-piece indiefolk powerhouse of today. They have weird vocal improv sections, they rock out in 11/8, sometimes it seems like they’re playing bluegrass, and they might make you cry.
Fish & Bird’s latest album, Every Whisper is a Shout Across the Void, marks a major step forward for the young band. Tickets are $15 and available along with reservations by e-mailing pharisromero@ gmail.com or by phone until April 3 at 250620-0592. Directions will be provided with reservations. Come early with snacks to share, Romero says. Check out www.fishandbird.ca

Film Club hosts World Tour 2013 Reel Paddling Film Festival KRISTA LIEBE We have made it. We are part of the World Tour 2013, the World Tour 2013 Reel Paddling Film Festival that is. We already have had emails from other places in Canada asking us if they can be a part of this. How exciting and awesome is that! You probably all know the Banff Mountain Film Festival, an incredible festival about everything to do with mountains. This is along those lines, only it has everything to do with water. And what can happen on water: paddling in many ways, canoeing, kayaking, rafting, surfing, stand-up surfing, and using any type of transportation on water possible. Like in the film “Go Ganges” in India. And even kayaking down waterfalls.
Surfing is among the sports that are featured in the World Tour 2013 Reel Paddling Film Festival. The Williams Lake Film Club is very proud to present to you The World Tour 2013 Reel Paddling Film Festival. It will be screened on Thursday, April 4, at 7 p.m. at the Gibraltar Room. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 in advance at Red Shreds, $15 at the door, cash only at both places. Actually, it was Colin at Red Shreds who
made me aware of this festival and asked me if I could bring it to Williams Lake. I took him up on it – and here we are. Thanks Colin. There will be a range of films shown, some longer, some shorter, about rafting in the Grand Canyon, award winning films, like First Glide, which has been awarded best documentary film, Go Ganges, best adven-
ture travel film filmed in India, Blind Bird Singing Rain, best canoeing film, there are just too many to name, at least eight of them, probably more. We even will have a film about a project from the community school in Bella Bella. What a beautiful place that is! You will be on the edge of your seats at times, you will lean back and let the medita-
tive powers of water and your time on it relax you at other times. At any event, I do think you will really like it! If we can make it work, we will bring it back to Williams Lake on an annual basis. So, tell your friends about it, tell your family, your mates, let’s make this a smasher. During the intermission we will have nibbelies from the Hobbit House and the Co-Op Organic Food Market. We want this to be a fun evening for everyone. Be there – enjoy yourself! And remember, all the proceeds go to the LDA, Williams Lake Chapter of the BC Association for Students with Learning Disabilities. So you can have some real fun and do something real good, it does not get much better than that.
The Williams Lake and District Credit Union and DundeeWealth are sponsoring a free tin whistle workshop, taught by Rob Menzies, member of the 6-time world champion Simon Fraser Pipe Band. He is a world-class piper and master of the Celtic tin whistle. The tin whistle has been featured in the sound tracks of blockbuster movies such as Titanic and Lord of the Rings. Please join us for the workshop (free whistles will be provided) on April 6, from 10:00am until 12:00pm at the Gibraltar Room. Space is limited. For more information or to reserve your seat contact wlpipeband@shaw.ca or phone Jeanne-Anne Bentham at 250-392-3683 or John at 250-398-7964. Check out the Williams Lake Pipe Band on Facebook!

Sugar Cane Tread-Pro receives service award In keeping with their constant growth and improvement, Sugarcane TreadPro was awarded with the TreadPro Tire Centres Service excellence award for 2012 at the group’s recent annual meeting in Calgary. “This location was an interesting location as they came to us fresh, having not been in the tire industry before,” said TreadPro Group President Les Donaldson. “They got off to a bit of a rocky start, but over the past couple of years, they have really come on board and stepped it up.” Donaldson cited that the shop, located on the Williams Lake Indian Band has shown a strong level of commitment to the group and their customers
over the last couple of years, showing an increase across the board in many key areas. This increase Donaldson added was due in no small part to the band’s hiring of a new manager. “When they brought Willie (Sure) on board,
we saw a marked increase in the successes at this location,” he said. “He really brought the business around. We look forward to working with him, the band and the skilled technicians at the store for a long time”
This is the second year in a row that Sugarcane TreadPro has received an award at the group’s annual general meeting. In 2012, they received the award for ‘Most Improved Location’ during the event held in Banff.

News Cancer Society celebrates 75th anniversary
During Daffodil Month, in April the Canadian Cancer Society is asking Williams Lake residents to wear a daffodil pin as a symbol of support for people living with cancer and to join the fight against cancer by making a donation to the society. March 28 marked the society’s 75th anniversary. The Canadian Cancer Society was founded on March 28, 1938 and through the years has grown into Canada’s leading national cancer-fighting charity. Today – thanks to the years of support of volunteers and donors in cities like Williams Lake – the society has the reach, strength and experience to make the most impact against cancer. “We are so impressed by the number of British Columbians who wear their daffodil pin during April to show their support for those affected by cancer,” says Barbara Kaminsky, CEO, Canadian Cancer Society, BC & Yukon. “This movement – which originated here in BC and is thanks to countless dedicated volunteers – recognizes the cancer journey and mobilizes communities to make a really big difference in the fight against cancer.” During the society’s early years in the 1940s, the cancer sur-
vival rate was about 25 per cent. Today, more than 60 per cent of Canadians diagnosed with cancer will survive at least five years after their diagnosis. “Our 75th anniversary is an opportunity for us to celebrate how far we’ve come while also recognizing that more work needs to be done,” adds Kaminsky. “We know about half of all cancers can be prevented so it’s time for us to focus on doing just one thing to reduce our risk.” The bright yellow daffodil has been an integral part of the society’s history since it was used by volunteers during the 1950s to decorate tables at fundraising events that became known as Daffodil Teas. The society continues to host special events and activities throughout April to raise vital funds for the important work of
the society. Daffodil Day – Saturday, April 27 – helps wrap up the Society’s campaign by designating a special day where we can reflect upon the thousands of Canadians who are on a cancer journey and also to remember those who have not survived. Donations to the Canadian Cancer Society during Daffodil Month help fund research to outsmart cancer, assist in providing information and deliver programs to prevent cancer and support those living with cancer, and support advocacy for public policies that improve the health of Canadians. To donate online or to find out where you can get a daffodil pin, go to fightback.ca or contact Marjo van Helvoirt Koop at 250564-0885. For 75 years the Canadian Cancer Society has been with
Canadians in the fight for life. We have been relentless in our commitment to prevent cancer, fund research and support Canadians touched by cancer. From this foundation, we will work with Canadians to change cancer forever so fewer Canadians are diagnosed with the disease and more survive. When you want to know more about cancer, visit our website at cancer.ca or call our toll-free bilingual Cancer Information Service at 1-888-9393333;TTY,1-866-7863934.

Making a Wind Chime
*Parent Supervision Required There’s no sound as beautiful as a wind-chime blowing in the breeze. Follow these directions to make your own sweet-sounding wind chime. 1. Go on a treasure hunt and look for items that will create 20 a lovely sound when they collide, such as seashells, bells, beads and stones. 2. If the items are thin enough, poke a hole through them with a nail or hole punch. Then pull a piece of string or nylon thread through each hole, and tie a knot. 3. For heavier objects, such as stones, wrap the string around 27 the object a few times, and rub non-toxic liquid glue over the string to hold it in place. 4. Next, find a colorful plastic lid to serve as the top of the wind chime. 5. Poke holes through the top, and pull the pieces of string or nylon thread through the holes; tie a knot at each end. 6. Finally punch two holes in the center of the top, and loop a piece of string through the holes. Tie another knot, and hang your wind chime from a nail or a branch of a tree. Note: If you have young children, avoid using small objects, which can present a choking hazard if swallowed.

MULTI GABLED FAMILY RESIDENCE Gables always make a house seem extra homey, and this multi-gabled three-bedroom family residence is no exception. In addition, the cross-bracing above the garage door, the deep eaves and the mullioned windows evoke the ever-popular Arts and Craft style. Entry is up a couple of steps into a roomy foyer. A coat closet is located nearby, across from a powder room. Immediately to the right of the foyer is a den, featuring French doors to a covered porch. Through an archway is the great room, with a dramatic double-height ceiling and a fireplace. The dining room, open to the great room, occupies a bayed-out area and enjoys access to a spacious terrace — the perfect spot for al fresco summer meals. The kitchen is separated from the dining room by a prep island, so the cook will never feel isolated. The sink, set diagonally into a corner, will receive lots of light from windows on two sides. A walk-through pantry connects the kitchen to the laundry room. With a useful coat cupboard, as well as access to the double garage, the laundry room can double as a mud room. A U-shaped flight of stairs leads to the second floor, a portion of which is open to the great room below. The master suite features a large window that overlooks the back garden. The walk-in closet, roomy enough for any fashionista, is separated from the four-piece ensuite by a handy linen cupboard. A shower stall and soaker tub in the en-suite add a touch of spa-like comfort.
The second and third bedrooms, separated by a threepiece bathroom, both enjoy an extra-wide window sill. Ceilings measure nine feet throughout. The double garage is large enough to contain a compact workshop. Exterior finishes include painted trim and wood siding, and the wooden pilasters that frame the front porch have stone bases. This home measures 38 feet wide and 54 feet deep, for a total of 1,997 square feet of living space. Plans for design 7-3-946 are available for $676 (set of 5), $766 (set of 8) and $819 for a super set of 10. Also add $30.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $55.00 outside of B.C. Please add 12% H.S.T., 13% H.S.T. Or 5% G.S.T (where applicable) to both the plan price and Priority charges. Our NEW 45TH Edition of the Home Plan Catalogue containing over 300 plans is available for $13.50 (includes taxes, postage and handling). Make all cheque and money orders payable to “Home Plan of the Week” and mail to: HOME PLAN OF THE WEEK c/o...
