The investigation revealed that two suspects forced their way into a residence armed with pepper spray and a firearm, demanding items, the RCMP said. After a brief skirmish with the occupants, the suspects fled.

Moments later the police identified a nearby residence where the suspects were located and arrested without incident. The weapons were recovered. Both suspects are presently in custody and well known to police.

Tribal leaders ask for help rebuilding Bella Bella Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer

NEWS A2 Safer communities promoted.

VOL. 83. No. 56

Residents of the First Nations community of Bella Bella are struggling to rebuild after a devastating fire destroyed one of the most important buildings in their small coastal village.

Last Friday around 4 a.m. fire broke out in a building that housed Bella Bella’s only grocery store, liquor store, post office, community library and cafe.

The 35-year-old wooden structure suffered extensive damage from smoke, fire and water, including the collapse of parts of the main floor into the offices and services located below.

It is unlikely that anything can be salvaged, community members were told.

“We’ve got a temporary store in the United Church now with essentials like bread, milk, eggs, diapers and formula,” Heiltusk

Fire in Bella Bella destroys main commercial building.

Tribal Council Chief Marilyn Sletts said Monday.

During the weekend B.C. Ferries transported goods to the community that were distributed to the most needy on Saturday and Sunday.

In addition, the Heiltusk Tribal Council said Friday it is accepting monetary donations on behalf of the Bella Bella commu-

nity via the website rebuildbellabella.tumblr.com.

Funds raised will support immediate assistance for families in need and will help initiate the process of rebuilding.

“Any assistance is welcome,” Slett said.

By Saturday, $3,000 had already been committed through the website, she added.

“I also heard from Kitimat city council that they have collected 40 boxes of books for us because our library was also destroyed by the fire.”

The band council from Kitimaat village has also offered help, Slett added.

Const. Lesley Smith, North District Media Relations Office said Friday in a press release that the Bella Bella RCMP were notified about the fire around 4 a.m. but already the flames were growing rapidly.

“Although fire crews attended

quickly, the immense fire destroyed the building,” Smith said.

“Due to the close proximity of several gas and diesel tanks at the local gas bar, RCMP initiated an evacuation of the local hospital and several residences in the area.”

Smith said Members of the Health Emergency Management BC have been contacted to assist the community during this disaster that will affect the community in many levels.

While the community is grateful that no one was hurt in the fire, the loss of the services will be felt by the community for a very long time, Slett said.

“Interim emergency services are already being organized to ensure our people have access to food and everything else they might need. We appreciate any support or help people are able to give as we try to salvage what we can and start to rebuild.”

Quesnel teen dies in rollover south of 100 Mile House

PM 0040785583

A 16-year-old male driver from the Quesnel area has died after a single vehicle rollover on Highway 97, three kilometres south of 100 Mile House, near the Hyra Road intersection. Two other occupants, a male and a female, were extricat-

ed from the vehicle and taken to the 100 Mile House Hospital with non life-threatening injuries.

The incident occurred around 2 p.m. Friday afternoon.

“Witnesses reported the northbound Dodge Neon swerving

within its lane prior to drifting into the ditch,” noted Sgt. Don McLean of the 100 Mile House RCMP in a press release. “The vehicle then came out of the ditch back onto the roadway, rolling at least twice before coming to rest on its roof.”

Police and emergency crews attended the scene along with a collision reconstructionist and traffic analyst from Prince George and Williams Lake.

“Liquor and speed were not factors in the fatality,” McLean said.

Alexis Creek First Nation community members Kailey Guichon, Alexis Lulua, Aniya Lulua and Giaunna Johnny helped created posters for an upcoming community rally for a safer community taking place Wednesday.

Rallying to promote safety Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer Rallying for a safer community will be the focus of an event taking place on the Alexis Creek First Nation west of Williams Lake on Wednesday, July 17.

“We are planning to walk from the top of the reserve down along all the main drags on the reserve,” said one of the rally organizers Martina William. “We are making a stand for a healthier and safer community to live in.”

The rally will begin at 10:30 a.m. and the plan is to carry signs, which children in the community have been helping create.

Also known as Tsi Del Del, the Alexis Creek First Nation is

located 110 kilometres west of Williams Lake on Highway 20.

William, 37, has lived at Alexis Creek First Nation her entire life and said 300 community members live on reserve and another 300 live off reserve.

She cannot remember a similar rally ever taking place and said the intent is to put a positive focus on helping build a safer community.

In the summer of 2012, a safety committee was established in the community.

Drug and alcohol referral worker Darlene Baptiste chairs the safety committee.

She returned to live in the community five years ago, she said.

“The chief and coun-

cil selected members for the committee and because I am part of the health team staff I was delegated to be the chair,” Baptiste said.

Eight people are on the committee, including the band manager, a chief and council representative, elders from the community, school principal and the RCMP. Since its inception, the committee has tackled issues brought forth from the community around speeding, impaired driving, quad riding on the reserve, break-ins and vandalism. Members have

also started developing some bylaws.

“We’re identifying some bylaws, creating drafts to go through with the band staff, and deciding what needs to be amended,” Baptiste said. “Once the drafts are approved, we will pass them on to chief and council for ratification.”

Safety committee liaison Const. Krista Mangan of the Alexis Creek RCMP Detachment said the rally is also a way to “take back the community” and promote a healthier and safer community.

“They want to

make people aware the committee exists, that they’re working on bylaws and different mechanisms within the band to deal with problem issues outside of the criminal justice system,” Mangan said, adding the committee is “working in leaps and bounds” to identify problems and come up with solutions on their own.

Organizers also hope other people in the community will decide they want to join the safety committee, or at least use the committee to make complaints, Mangan added.

RemindeR to Residents to apply foR boulevaRd paRking spots

In order to ensure that vehicles are not illegally parked on City boulevards, the City will focus on enforcement of the 2011 Boulevard Parking Traffic Control Bylaw, which prohibits boulevard parking in residential zones without an approved boulevard parking spot approved by the City.

Vehicles parked on City boulevards can impede safe snow removal, obstruct clear sight lines for motorists and cyclists, and can be a factor in unsightly properties.

Residents are reminded that vehicles parked illegally on the boulevard could be subjected to fines and/or towed.

To apply for an approved boulevard parking area, residents must submit a Request For Boulevard Parking form to the General Manager of Planning and Operations. The parking area must meet all criteria set out in the bylaw: 1. Parking spot must be delineated (must have a clear border).

2. Parking spot must be surfaced either by paving (preferred), crush, or with grindings (available from the City at a low cost).

3. Parking spot must be connected to driveway.

4. Homeowner can request a “curb drop” however this cost will be borne by the homeowner.

5. Plans for parking spots must be approved by the General Manager of Planning and Operations (GMPO) BEFORE construction takes place.

6. Parking spot must be clearly marked in the winter months for easy identification by snow removal crews.

7. All passenger vehicles parked within boulevard parking spots must be licensed and insured.

8. No recreational vehicles, trailers, or storage of any kind.

9. Vehicle must not exceed size of allotted area both in width and length.

10. Deadline for markers: October 31 of any given year to correspond with beginning of snow removal season.

Inmates make furniture for Cariboo-Chilcotin Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer It was almost like Christmas in July when a truckload of goods arrived for First Nations communities in the Cariboo Chilcotin.

On July 13 Sarah Jackman, executive director of the Punky Lake Wilderness Society, received three eight-by-three-foot dining hall tables and benches, children’s beds, rocking horses, and developmental toys made by inmates in various correctional institutes around B.C. She also received 1,100 pounds of organic produce grown by inmates at the Ferndale correctional institute in Mission.

Since September Jackman has partnered with Corrections Services Canada and wardens at five institutions in the Pacific Region.

Dubbed “CaribooChilcotin Project,” the aim is to give back to the communities while offering an opportunity for offenders to build and develop work skills, said Correctional Services of Canada media relations officer Jean-Paul Lorieau.

The goals are to improve the lives of

Aboriginal children and youth through the contribution of products which can improve their quality of life, provide offenders with opportunities to learn employment skills and make intrinsic changes which ultimately can assist them to adopt pro-social values and attitudes and contribute to safer institutional environments by engaging offenders in meaningful work.

“When you’re incarcerated you are supposed to do seven hours of productive labour every day,” Jackman said. “They were running out of things for them to do. They were finding the more boredom set in the more trouble was being caused.”

The psychiatric inmates are knitting hats, mitts, scarves and blankets, she added.

“It’s all coming to us free of charge and I get to be like Santa and distribute it and keep what I need for the camp.”

Lorieau said the program provides offenders with raw materials to produce the items.

The program has engaged First Nations leaders and organizations in the region to

develop lists of needs which includes furniture for homes, schools and band offices, as well as children’s clothing, toys, educational materials and other items.

The project is in the early stages and the plan is to continue to expand the project and create further opportunities for giving back to communities, while providing offenders with opportunities to learn employment skills they can use for a safe and successful reintegration into the community.

Anaham Chief Joe Alphonse said he has toured several of the adult correction centres involved in the project.

“It is a great way of helping the inmates get back into society,” Alphonse said. “It gives them an incentive to help the communities.”

Jackman has received feedback that the inmates are also really enjoying the program.

“There are several inmates from the Chilcotin communities and it’s giving them a chance to give back to the communities they maybe have harmed,” she said.

Gun Amnesty sees 14 firearms surrendered in W.L. Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer A total of 14 firearms were surrendered to the Williams Lake RCMP Detachment during the BC Gun Amnesty held through the month of June.

Intent on giving B.C. residents a safe way to dispose of weapons, imitation weapons and related equipment and ammunition which they were not legally entitled

to own or no longer wanted, the gun amnesty was held throughout the province.

At a press conference held in Richmond on Friday, July 12, the attorney general and minister of justice, Suzanne Anton, along with all police departments in B.C. announced the final tally of firearms turned in during the 2013 BC Gun Amnesty.

The amount totalled 1,801 firearms, 155 oth-

er weapons and approximately 30,700 rounds of ammunition.

Some interesting items were turned in, including: 1,026 rifles, 394 handguns, 380 shotguns and a machine gun received by Kelowna RCMP. Historical firearms, including a Lee-Enfield .303 rifle from World War II, bayonets from the 1800s, were turned in to Ridge Meadows RCMP.

A well-publicized military missile more than six feet long, was also turned in by the relative of an individual who reportedly kept it as a souvenir of a tour of duty overseas.

Williams Lake RCMP Detachment operations support John Pilszek confirmed Friday that seven handguns, of which two were prohibited firearms, five rifles and two shot guns were turned in.

In Williams Lake the surrendered guns will be taken to Cariboo Steel for disposal. The serial numbers will be removed and they will be crushed with a 50-ton press.

“Once that’s done they’re nothing more than scrap metal,” Pilszek said.

Even with the Gun Amnesty completed for 2013 Insp. Warren Brown encouraged the public to turn in any

firearm to the RCMP if it is no longer being used for a legitimate purpose or if it is unwanted.

“Often firearms are left in the possession of family members after the owners have passed on,” Brown said. “In some instances, the firearms can be a burden as the law requires safe storage and not everyone has the knowledge, capacity, or ability to store them safely.”

The amnesty did not

apply to weapons or firearms used to commit crimes.

According to the RCMP, about 5.3 per cent of British Columbians have a firearms licence, slightly below the national average of 5.7 per cent.

StatsCan reported in 2011, the last year for which a figure is available, 158 homicides (27 per cent) in Canada were committed with firearms.

Bambi’s mom is probably nearby COS says Monica Lamb-Yorski Tribune Staff Writer The problem with rescuing fawns is that most of the time the doe is probably nearby and the fawn does not need rescuing, said Sgt. Len Butler of the Conservation Officer Services in Williams Lake.

“It’s that typical time of year when people are picking up fawns thinking the mother is not around,” Butler told the Tribune Tuesday.

In a number of cases the COS is telling people to take the fawn back where they found it because the doe will most likely be off feeding somewhere and will return to the fawn.

“That’s their defence mechanism,” Butler said. The fawns do not have an odour so the doe will usually hide the fawn in an area.

“A lot of times when we tell people to take the fawn back where they found it, mom will come out of the bush.

We’re not making this up, we’ve been doing this for a lot of years.”

Unless people see a doe hit on the road and a fawn close by, then the fawn should be left alone, Butler insisted.

“People need to take some time, review the situation, and leave the fawn there. I know it’s a Good Samaritan thing we think we’re doing, but the reality is mom is probably not that far away.”

He said the same goes for birds and water fowl people are finding and bringing in.

“It’s better for nature to take its course,” he said.

The Conservation Officer Services is reminding the public to leave fawns alone because most likely the doe is nearby.

Tammy Zacharias runs the Second Chance Wildlife Shelter in Quesnel and said fawns are easy to capture.

“When you run after them, they’ll lie down.

They’re funny like that.

It’s like goats when you scare them and they fall over.”

Presently she has four fawns in the shelter and all of them were taken with no moms dead.

“One had a hurt shoulder. Some people found it in the middle of the road, so we picked that one up.”

Zacharias said fawns are sketchy when taken into a shelter and the biggest challenge is feeding them.

“We try to use baby bottles but a deer nipple isn’t that big. It’s a fight to feed them at the beginning. It’s horrible on them because we almost have to force feed them.”

Because she’s on her fourth year caring for

fawns, she waits until they’re hungry enough and have calmed down enough that they are willing to eat.

When people bring in a fawn she will ask where and why they picked it up.

Often she will tell people to return fawns back to the place where they were taken because the mom will take them back.

“Sometimes people will freak out, so then we do that without them knowing. We’ve taken them out two days later and the mom has come back for them. It’s amazing.”

Even if the fawn has been touched by humans, the doe will take it back, she assured.

“I think they told us back in the day that the mom wouldn’t take the fawn back just so we wouldn’t touch them.”

Zacharias took in seven fawns in 2012 and 13 in 2011 because they received several from the Kamloops

It is unlawful to pick fawns up, but if there are circumstances warranting a rescue, then people should call the

“They will be referred to a shelter,” Butler said.

“It’s been quite the last couple of crazy

years,” she said.

The four she has now are an “average” number, although the shelter has put down two this year because they were hit by a vehicle or run into fence before they were brought in.

Normally fawns are pretty hearty and they’ve only lost one in five years, Zacharias said.

The ones in the shelter will stay until March and then will be released into the wild.

When it comes to moose calves, the same holds, said Julie Steciw, wildlife biologist with Natural Resource Operations in Williams Lake.

“They should also be left alone too, unless a dead mother is nearby.”

Billy Barker Days make for a great weekend It’s hard to believe there are just two short days to go until the beginning of Billy Barker Days in Quesnel! This will be the 40th edition of this wonderful festival, a Cariboo classic. With live music, a rodeo, a kids’ day, seniors’ day, parade, and fireworks, there is sure to be something for everyone to enjoy.

I’d like to take a moment to thank the Billy Barker Days Society and the countMLA less volMusings unteers w h o Coralee Oakes w o r k h a r d every year to make this festival happen – this festival wouldn’t be possible without them. It also wouldn’t be possible without financial support from our local businesses. Our provincial government is also helping out with a $25,000 grant. This is a great investment in an event that is not only fun for the whole family, but helps make Quesnel a vibrant community and has a positive economic impact.

Much of the action will be taking place at Lebourdais Park. For anyone visiting from out of town, just follow the “Gold Rush Trail,” or Highway 97, and you’ll find Lebourdais Park beside the visitor information centre. There will be live entertainment on stage in the park for all four days of the festival, with many talented artists performing. This includes northern B.C.’s own Aaron Pritchett, who will be taking the stage on Friday, as well as Kenny Shields and Streetheart, performing on Saturday. For a full schedule, and more details about everything happening this weekend, go to billybarkerdays.ca.

Korean War Day proclaimed We were heartened recently upon hearing Canadian veterans of the Korean War were finally to be recognized with their own day of remembrance.

The Year of the Korean War Veteran was proclaimed by the federal government in January of this year, to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the armistice signed in 1953.

But the enactment of a special day, July 27, to be marked in perpetuity to honour the sacrifices and efforts of Canadian soldiers, sailors and air force personnel, has more long-term significance.

In all, 516 Canadians died and another 1,558 were wounded in the three-year conflict, a battle between the Soviet and China-

supported north, and the south Koreans, supported by the United Nations, some of the member countries of which waged war against the Nazis just a handful of years previous.

Stories retold by local Korea vets of surviving family members receiving little in the way of acknowledgement of their sons and daughters’ sacrifices from the Canadian government were both shocking and embarrassing.

Media of the day largely ignored the conflict, to the point where many Canadians back home didn’t realize their country was playing a combat role in the war-torn region.

Luckily, things have changed in 50 years, including the treatment of veterans and the value we place

on their role in maintaining peace and reducing chaos in the world.

Most wars in which Canada has been involved have aimed to achieve a political end for the greater good. The people on the front lines working to accomplish that aim – some of whom paid the ultimate price – deserve to be recognized for their efforts, which in the vast majority of cases are honest, true and patriotic.

Regardless how one feels about war, the Canadians who have fought them have, at the end of the day, worked to protect the rights and freedoms we should never take for granted.

For that, they deserve our thanks.

Good news for pot proponents.

King of Pot Marc Emery, who is serving five years in a U.S. jail for selling marijuana seeds across the border, was given permission to transfer to a Canadian jail, supposing our government accepts him.

Elect i o n s BC has French given Connection marijuaDiana French na activist Dana Larsen approval-in-principle to use B.C.’s unique initiative legislation to propose a law that would effectively decriminalize pot by preventing B.C. police from enforcing simple possession of cannabis.

Larsen and his Sensible BC campaign have good company in advocating for changed laws.

John McKay, the former U.S. district attorney who prosecuted Emery, says the war on pot is a total failure, current laws allow gangs and cartels to generate billions of dollars in profits. In calling for legalizing and taxing pot, he is joined by former B.C. Attorney Generals Geoff Plant and Ujjal Dosanjh who say if the government produced and sold marijuana like alcohol, those dollars would go into government coffers. Their group, Stop The Violence B.C. Coalition, notes opinion polls suggest most British Columbians agree with them.

Larsen’s petition with tell that story.

Is marijuana a health hazard? Willie Nelson, as famous for advocating for pot as he is for his singing, says no. In good health after smoking pot for 60 years, he says pot won’t kill you unless you let a bale of it fall on you.

Smoking tobacco kills even if used properly. It’s no longer socially acceptable but it is still legal. Alcohol abuse results in horrendous health and criminal problems but the sale and use of alcoholic drinks is not only legal, it’s encouraged.

Sensible BC has two months to enlist canvassers and prepare to start collecting signatures on Sept. 9. A successful referendum would send the proposal to the provincial legislature. The Liberal government has shown no enthusiasm for changing the law, but it could be difficult to ignore an overwhelming yes vote.

Prizes support urban aboriginal life Tom Fletcher Black Press Projects in Penticton, Victoria and Vancouver to improve circumstances for B.C. aboriginal people who live off reserve have been awarded prizes of $15,000 each to continue their work.

B.C. Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rustad announced winners Monday of a province-wide competition for community-based projects that was launched in February.

There were 21 entries, and winners are: • Penticton Peach Festival aboriginal cultural village, presenting traditional food and ceremonies to increase community collaboration and reduce racism.

• Arts For Wealth, a program of the Victoria Native Friendship Centre that pays honorariums to aboriginal artists to produce original works for auction at cultural and charitable events.

• Vancouver Native Health Society’s aboriginal instant kitchen, a cooking program that passes on traditional food gathering and preparation along with nutrition theory, food label education and hands-on cooking, shopping and gardening skills.

Rustad noted that 74 per cent of B.C.’s aboriginal people live off reserves, and 60 per cent of those live in urban areas. The contest was created in conjunc-

“This competition was really about finding out the groovy things that are happening in

the communities around British Columbia, and honouring that and recognizing that that’s

where the solutions are,” said Paul Lacerte, the association’s executive director.

B.C. marijuana vote gets green light Tom Fletcher Black Press Elections BC has given approval in principle to marijuana activist Dana Larsen’s bid to lead a petition drive for de-criminalizing marijuana possession.

Larsen has proposed that B.C. go around the federal law with a “Sensible Policing Act” that would disallow the use of B.C. police resources to prosecute simple possession of small amounts of pot by adults.

This fall, Larsen will be allowed to begin collecting signatures in an effort to force an initiative vote similar to that used to reverse the harmonized sales tax.

Individuals and groups have until Aug. 12 to register with

Marijuana in the growing stages.

Elections BC to oppose the initiative, run ads for or against the petition or collect signatures.

Larsen, who was involved with the B.C. Marijuana Party before seeking the leadership of the B.C.

NDP in 2011, has worked for the last year to build support for what he calls Sensible BC. His organization will have 90 days from Sept. 9 to collect signatures from 10 per cent of registered provincial voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts.

If that threshold is reached, Elections BC would hold a province-wide initiative vote, likely by mail as was done to repeal the HST. Decriminalizing pot has received mainstream support in recent years, including a narrow majority vote at the 2012 Union of B.C. Municipalities convention.

In a debate at that convention in Victoria last September, former B.C. Liberal attorney gen-

eral Geoff Plant advocated for loosening marijuana laws, as has since been done in the U.S. states of Washington and Colorado.

The idea was opposed by criminologist Darryl Plecas, who was elected B.C. Liberal MLA for Abbotsford South in the May provincial election.

Larsen has had a colourful career, including editor of Vancouver-based Cannabis Culture magazine and co-founder of the Vancouver Seed Bank, which has sold seeds for marijuana, poppies, peyote and coca.

Larsen resigned as an NDP candidate in the 2008 federal election, after videos surfaced showing his drug use a decade earlier, including taking LSD while driving a car.

Mine rescue practiced Continued From Page A5 Over the course of the four-day camp students were introduced to many different career options available in the mining sector.

The New Gold simulator was provided for all students to experience mining equipment and scenarios.

“It was just like playing a really big video game,” one student said.

Students also got the chance to operate a backhoe brought out to Gavin Lake by Finning Canada.

Various informative talks and activities were provided by the Mt. Polley Mine Rescue Team, Mt. Polley Heavy Duty Mechanics, Gibraltar Millwrights and Orica Blasting Engineer.

All camp participants experienced a working mine site with a tour of Gibraltar Mine and pretended to have their own mine while partaking in a cookie mining activity. And what would going to camp be without swimming, canoeing, and some archery?

The goal of the camp was to create awareness of the vast array of opportunities in the mining industry in a fun and interactive way, so that local youth and parents may make better informed choices when time comes for grade 10 – 12 course selection and career planning.

Overall the camp was a huge success.

My hope is to see this camp run yearly for all upcoming grade eights and nines to enjoy and benefit from.

Williams Lake’s Melissa Rispin dives for a ball during a goalkeeping drill at the European Football School soccer camp last week at the Esler Sports Complex. Saibo Talic (left), a UEFA-licensed coach, has been bringing his Vancouver-based camp to Williams Lake for the past 10 years.

European Football School 10 years in W.L. Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Saibo Talic, head coach of the Vancouver-based European Football School, feels a special connection to Williams Lake.

That’s why when last week, in his 10th consecutive year bringing his soccer camp to the lakecity, Talic couldn’t help but to think back about how much the Williams Lake Youth Soccer Association has grown since he began. “Honestly, I am really attached with this city and with this association — all these years,” Talic said. “It’s been an honour and a pleasure to be in this town.”

Talic, along with four other coaches, ran the camp July 8-12 at the Esler Sports Soccer Complex, attracting some of the top local youth soccer players ages 7-19. And this year’s camp, with 95 players, was the biggest camp he’s held in Williams Lake yet.

See SKILL Page A10

The Cariboo Cowgirls, Wild West Riders and Little Britches will open the show for the RCMP Musical Ride performance in the Williams Lake Stampede Grounds Thursday evening.

During the day, until performance time at 6:30 p.m., the horse stalls will also be open for public viewing.

Thirty-six riders, 36 horses, a farrier, a technical production manager and three noncommissioned officers travel with the Musical Ride on tour.

The highlight of the Musical Ride is, without a doubt, the CHARGE when lances, with their red and white pennons, are lowered and the riders and their mounts launch into the gallop.

Advance tickets for the Musical Ride are available at Cariboo GM, Margetts Meats, J & E Gifts, Taylor Made Cakes and Sweets and the Williams Lake RCMP Detachment office.

The tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under.

Tickets will also be available at the gate.

Skill development and creativity a priority Continued From Page A9 In past years Talic has even taken along players from Williams Lake to tournaments in Europe and the U.S. with his European Football School

teams.

“I’ve taken many players with me to those places, and when I see the development of the players here — these girls here, they won under-16 provincials for girls — this is great

things for this community,” he said.

“North Shore (Vancouver) has 3,000 girls, and this association has maybe 500 — this is a great achievement (for Williams Lake) and I can see (soccer) growing

in popularity and lots of good players.”

Talic holds is Canadian license A and UEFA license B coaching tickets.

He was born in the former Yugoslavia (Bosnia) and played professionally there

from 1969-1981 before moving on to coaching. He coached PC Podgrmec of the Yugoslavian Div. 1 from 1982-1992 before moving to Vancouver in 1993 where he coached Croatia SC to Pacific Coast League and Premier League titles in 1993 and 1994. He had a three-year stint (1995-1999) coaching the Capilano College men’s team, which won a national title in 1996. He then moved back to Bosnia in 1997 to coach before returning to B.C. to start the EFS in 2000.

He now runs camps in Whistler, Williams Lake, Kamloops, Squamish, Pemberton and North Vancouver.

He said what sets his camp apart from other soccer camps is attention to learning skills and developing creativity.

“We really work on skills with the players — this is the number one thing,” he said.

“Skills and unpredictable play of players, and imagination.

These things take time, and are what we work on.”

He also tailors his

Haying time again

Signs of industry and the results from hard work are evidenced by scenes like this all over the Cariboo. The square hay bales in this field on the Xgat’temc (Dog Creek) First Nation hay field`s were all stacked and ready for pick-up last week. All that remained is for someone to haul them from the field to the main stack-yard. Then the process can begin all over again once the irrigation pipes are returned to the field. In August the field (crop) will once again be ready for harvesting the second cut.

sessions by age group.

“With the younger kids we spend more time with the ball,” he said. “We try, in one tour-hour session, to have 1,800 touches with the ball — that’s the average in Europe for the young kids. It’s to enjoy it, but to also work on co-ordination and agility.

“With the older kids we use lots of tactical strategy.”

Talic’s EFS camps continue throughout the summer. Next up, he’ll be at East Vancouver’s Trillium Turf Field, before going to Salmon Arm.

Bighorn lacrosse players move up to intermediate league Greg Sabatino Tribune Staff Writer Two Williams Lake Bighorns lacrosse alumni are settling in

on a new team this year after moving up to the B.C. Intermediate Lacrosse League.

Benn Taylor and Riley Lawryk, who both

played for the Williams Lake Bighorns midget lacrosse team last season, made the move to Surrey during this year’s season

to play for the Fraser Surrey Stealth.

Lawryk joined the team at the start of the season after one of his BC Games

coaches referred him to the Stealth’s coach, Ray Lagace.

Taylor, on Lawryk’s recommendation, joined the team midway through the season.

And so far, both said it’s been a bit of an adjustment in getting used to the new league.

“It’s bigger, it’s faster, it’s quicker, and there’s a lot more structure,” Taylor said. “All the players can play.”

The B.C. Intermediate Lacrosse League attracts some of the best lacrosse players

in the province to the Lower Mainland. In B.C. opportunities to play lacrosse at a high level are limited.

“It’s just a good chance to keep playing,” Taylor said. “It’s a longer season, and we couldn’t really keep playing here.”

Lawyrk who, in 15 games played so far this year, has five goals and seven assists, said the best part about playing in the league is getting in more games, and more practices.

Taylor, in nine games, has one goal and five assists.

The Stealth, meanwhile, sit in eighth place out of 10 teams in the regular season standings, with one game left on July 15 versus the Langley Warriors before heading into playoffs.

The Stealth are joined by the Coquitlam Adanacs, the Delta Islanders, the Port Moody Thunder, the New Westminster Salmonbellies, the Port Coquitlam Saints, the North Delta Hawks, the Ride Meadows Burrards, the North Shore Indians and the Langley Warriors.

Fish Lake Alliance fundraiser LeRae Haynes photo

At last week’s Horsin Around session eight-year-old Pavneet Gill enjoyed her time on Dakota, a horse who is brand new to the program, along with volunteer Riley Cooper. They are pictured here with nine-year-old Zachary Newman on long-time participant Harley, volunteers Tessa Hare and Brandon Bunce. The program continues this week at the Trail Riders Arena.

Kids and horses make connections at CDC Horsin’ Around workshops LeRae Haynes

Special to The Tribune Local children are discovering this week what it means to fall in love with a horse, during the Horsin’ Around program put on by the Child Development Centre (CDC).

The program runs for two weeks and is designed to foster love and respect for horses, let kids participate in the everyday care and grooming of a horse, and let them learn the principles of safe horse handling and develop basic horsemanship skills.

The Williams Lake Trail Riders graciously donates the use of their indoor arena and Jane Folka provides the instruction.

Young volunteers spend two weeks as helpers, assisting with games and activities in the arena.

There are volunteer horses, too, carefully screened to be perfect companions for the children.

Sherry Carter from CDC said there are huge changes in the kids during their week with horses.

“Some kids won’t even get on the horse on the first day and by the fourth day they’re running to get on the horse as fast as they can,” she explained.

“Their confidence increases and it’s wonderful to see the relationships between the children and the volunteers.

“Children come back from the year before and they remember ‘their’ horse’s name and look for them; they also remember their helper’s name and look for them, too.”

She explained that some of the horses have been with the program for a long time and some are newer.

“It takes a special horse to do this and a special volunteer,” Carter added.

“Parents describe this as an

‘awesome’ program and they hope it continues; they have all good things to say about it.”

One of the teen volunteers for Horsin Around is Matina Durfeld, recently graduated from high school and spending two weeks of her summer in the arena with children from CDC with her horse Kokanee.

Durfeld explained that she has volunteered with the program since she started high school, and that she started taking riding lessons when she was five years old.

“I got my first horse when I was 12 years old, and boarded it at Minton Creek Ranch,” Durfeld said. “Rene and Carla encouraged me to volunteer with my horse for the program and I loved it from the beginning.”

Durfeld is on her way to Vernon to start a two-year BC College of Equine Therapy program, and said that it includes

physio for horses, applied kinesiology and massage.

She said that she really enjoys seeing the kids in Horsin Around from the first day – going from shy and scared to excited and confident.

“If you kneel down beside them you see how really big these horses are from their point of view; it takes a lot of courage to get up on a 1,000 pound animal when you’re only 30 pounds,” Durfeld continued, adding that on the second day the kids are already more confident and excited to be with a horse.

“One of the little girls I had today said, ‘I missed you, Kokanee: I love you.’

“When you fall in love with a horse it’s a unique bond and it changes you forever,” Durfeld said. “I love seeing this happen to these kids.”

Participants were equally thrilled with the program.

Fish Lake Alliance is hosting a fundraiser Friday, July 19 to protect Fish Lake.

There is free admission to this evening event and fundraising auction with snacks and live music.

All funds raised will help to bring experts to the environmental review of the controversial New Prosperity mine, which starts Monday, July 22.

The relaxed evening includes music by the band, Drum and Bell Tower starting at 7 p.m. Friday at the Limelight Theatre. Items auctioned will include getaways at cabins in the Cariboo and Sunshine Coast, art, crafts, services and smaller items of interest.

Country artists come together to raise funds for flood victims Former Lakecity resident Angela Harris is among Canadian country artists coming to the aid of Alberta flood victims.

Singer/songwriter, and music promoter Harris is among country artists who will be heard in a new song written by Sean Hogan called The Love Leads The Way, Come Hell or High-Water that will be sold to raise funds for flood victims through the Red Cross.

“Sean Hogan is a good friend and recording artist/songwriter that I admire,” Harris said last week in an interview with The Tribune.

“I learned of Sean’s fundraising initiative through multi-instrumentalist Eric Reed (who played electric guitar on the recording), at a time when I was looking for ways that an artist/songwriter like myself could help assist in the flood relief efforts.

“I was moved by the premise of Sean’s project and reached out to him offering my talents and services which led to me singing on the project, as well as doing the design of the promo and marketing the initiative.”

On the marketing front, Hogan confirmed in his press release that Harris’s Vancouver-based company Fair Wend Entertainment Services will help to create awareness by taking a ‘grass roots’ approach for the song’s national promotions campaign, starting with his friends, family, comrades, and fans.

Upon completion of the single, it will be made available to the public for digital download with 100 per cent of the proceeds intended to assist the Red Cross in their disaster relief efforts, which include the operation of seven emergency shelters for victims in the area as well as providing funding to food banks. Release dates for the single will be announced soon.

In his press release Hogan said he was gripped by the extreme circumstances of the Alberta floods while

Angela Harris grew up in the Chilcotin and played music in Williams Lake before moving to Vancouver to further her career.

She is working to help Alberta flood victims. watching the news and feeling for his friends and family.

“I wondered what could I possibly do to make a difference, when I then saw the story of a Siksika Nation band member named Leonard Bear Shirt,” Hogan said.

“In his interview he said he had minutes to go into his house and grab some personal affects and decided to grab his drum.

“That connection between spirituality and music had a significant impact on me and I felt compelled to write a song whose sales could offer a contribution of relief needed by those who have suffered losses due to this very unfortunate circumstance.”

Hogan sat down and penned the aptly written track Come Hell Or High Water (See What Love Can Do) with thoughts of reaching out to his comrades across the nation and making it a collaborative project. He shared the song and idea with his band mate, and multi-instrumentalist Eric Reed who agreed that Hogan was on the right track.

Since then, artists from all over Canada have agreed to sing on the track including Bobby Wills, Shane Yellowbird, Patricia Conroy, Duane Steele, Shane Chisholm, Samantha King, Tenille, Blake Berglund, Clayton Bellamy, Angela Harris, Wyatt, Brett

Kissel, Crystal Shawanda, Pear and Jake Mathews, with more star power still coming on side, Hogan said.

He said some artists could not participate due to their own busy schedules but the door has only just opened and the days are early for this project to become a great funding source for the cause.

The song is being co-produced by Hogan and long time buddy Rick Hutt from Ontario and mixed by Kevin Churko. By the power of the digital age, the recording, editing, mixing and mastering of the single will take place at various recording studio’s throughout Canada and the U.S. who have graciously offered to give of their time, so that recording artists can cost effectively record their parts on the song as per the direction of Hogan and Hutt.

Harris got her start in country music singing and playing acoustic guitar with her mother Marion Tilloton at various events around the Cariboo Chilcotin when she was just 13. At 19 she was performing independently and with the lakecity’s Lightning Creek band for three years. Over the next 10 years she made numerous trips to Nashville exploring the music scene and honing her craft. Her first album Angela Harris was produced in 1999 followed by her second album Roots in 2005.

B.C. singer/songwriter Sean Hogan has written the song The Love Leads the Way, Come Hell or High-Water and is working with other country artists to record the song as a fundraiser for Alberta flood victims.

In songs such as She’s Got Opinions of Her Own and T-T-Talk to Me, Good Things Will Come and Is Your Life as It Should Be, Angela presents a fusion of bluegrass, traditional country, folk and blues.

After moving to Vancouver Angela developed a career in music promotion and continues to sing and

perform with some of Vancouver’s top artists in a group called the High Bar Gang: Barney Bentall on guitar and vocals; Shari Ulrich on fiddle, mando, and vocals; Wendy Bird on vocals, Colin Nairne on guitar and vocals, Rob Becker on bass and vocals, Eric Reed on banjo, mandolin and dobro.

Piping hot time for WL Pipe Band at Silver Star LeRae Haynes Special to The Tribune After a week at Simon Fraser University Pipe Band’s ‘Piping Hot Summer Drummer’ workshop at Silver Star, the Williams Lake Pipe Band attended the

2013 Kamloops Highland Games, where several members competed as individuals and where the band successfully performed a medley in the Grade 4 band competition.

The Williams Lake musicians also partici-

pated in a massed band performance, along with bands from Vernon, Kamloops, Quesnel and Simon Fraser University.

The week ‘on the mountain’ at Silver Star included individual and band instruc-

tion from world-class pipers, drummers and dancers from around the world, including J. Reid Maxwell, Stuart Liddell and Jack Lee. It was the 20th anniversary of the school and there was a record number of students

This was Williams Lake Pipe Band tenor drummer Sandra Lees’ second year at Piping Hot Summer Drummer. After spending a week receiving instruction from two Simon Fraser Pipe Band tenor drummers – Nicola Purvis from New Zealand and MacKenzie Webster from B.C., Lees says that a real highlight at the workshop for her was learning to more successfully put her flourishes (drum stick twirls) to the beat of the music.

“Sharp tones mean quicker movements,” she explains, adding that she was excited to take her new skills to a peak experience of the weekend for her – the band’s competition performance at the

Kamloops Highland Games.

“It was overwhelming – what a great feeling,” she said. “I was so scared going in, but I just went with the flow and put my flourishes with the music.

“When we played our way off the field and finished, the feeling was unbelievable for me. Maybe we didn’t win, but that doesn’t matter to me.

I know we did our best and we played well.”

She said that the incredible inspiration from her week at Piping Hot and from the • • • • • •

Highland Games performance will spur her on to try harder and get better. “I can’t wait to get back and show my instructors that what they taught me has made a difference,” she added. “And I want my band to be proud of me.”

Graffiti style makes for interesting signage Tara Sprickerhoff Special to The Tribune The word graffiti often carries all sorts of negative connotations.

People think of it as a crime, ugly and something that needs to be removed.

Reina Barnes however, has taken a different approach to what she calls the “art form” of graffiti.

Her work is personalized, fun, and above all, legal.

Barnes, 25, who paints what she calls

“urban art,” is new to showing and selling her work, but at this year’s Street Party during Stampede weekend, she could be found in front of Two Doors Down Consignment with a number of her graffiti-inspired

pieces.

Her artwork, unlike traditional graffiti artists, is done on a base of recycled wood (not buildings) and features a base of spray paint with overlying details painted in acrylics.

Although Barnes has always been interested in art, taking art classes in school, sketching and painting, she discovered this new medium two years ago.

“A friend of mine that I met here one summer was a graffiti artist. I know graffiti is vandalism and is bad for you and blah blah blah and everyone despises it, but I think that the art work isn’t really appreciated for what it is. After he taught me, I went with it.”

Originally, most of Barne’s work was personalized and given as gifts for friends or family.

“I like personalizing it because you can make it more appealing to the person that has it,” she said.

Soon after she started giving her art as gifts, her friends and family started pushing her to show her work and even sell it.

Barnes worked for almost a year to create nine pieces she could display and the Street Party was the first time she had shown her work to the general public.

“It’s pretty cool that people liked it,” she said. “It’s different, it’s not really the same as what everybody does, like those scenery pic-

tures, but I think its fun because it is really colourful and you can make it personalized.”

Most of Barnes’ work features a graffiti-style word with some sort of detailing or design around it.

Although Barnes sold two pieces at the Street Party — a fact she is quite pleased with — she had never really considered selling her art before.

“Art’s not really my job. I don’t think I really want to have it as my job because it’s not. It’s my hobby.

It’s something that I’m passionate about and I think that if I have it as a job it might ruin it a little bit,” she said.

Barnes works doing tax preparation at H&R Block, next

door to Two Doors Down Consignment, her mom Daphne Johnson’s store, where some of her art is currently on displayed.

Born and raised in Williams Lake, Barnes lives with her boyfriend and her “babies,” her two miniature Pomeranians Mercedes and Sassy, and Koda, a Rottweiler rescued from an unhappy home.

In her free time, Barnes hula hoops for exercise and takes the time to go hunting with a compound bow, a skill she learned from her grandfather.

Art, however, remains one of Barnes’ favourite activities.

“I do it to relax. It helps me think and not get stressed out.”
