Nine-year-old Clare VanSpall takes her family’s dog Brie for a run while her grandfather, Michael VanSpall and sister, Emily, 12, play frisbee on the lawn at Scout Island Saturday afternoon. The beautiful fall colours and warm weather came together to give out-oftown visitors to the Cariboo Chilcotin such as the VanSpalls, a real treat on the Thanksgiving weekend.

Martin Gentles has been ordered to stand trial in B.C. Supreme Court on charges of impaired driving causing death and causing bodily harm, among others. Crown spokesperson Neil MacKenzie said an arrangement

hearing is scheduled for Nov. 18 to set the dates of the trial. The order comes after a threeday preliminary inquiry was held in Williams Lake Provincial Court between Oct. 7 to Oct. 9, where several witnesses, including both RCMP and civilian, were questioned by Crown and defence counsels in front of presiding Justice Victor Galbraith.

Gentles is charged with dangerous driving causing death, dangerous driving causing bodily harm, impaired driving causing death, causing an accident resulting in death, impaired driving causing bodily harm, causing an accident resulting in bodily harm, and failure to stop at the scene of an accident. The charges stem from an in-

cident that occurred on April 22, 2012 on Carson Drive in Williams Lake where Rayel MacDonald was killed and her friend Alysha Mullet was seriously injured. At the onset of the trial, a publication ban was put in place. While Gentles has not entered a plea, he has selected to be tried by judge alone, MacKenzie said.
