School balanced calendar program axed Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer School District 27 trustees have cancelled the balanced calendar program at Cataline Elementary School. Cancelling the program is expected to save $173,000 of the $1.6 million deficit the district is facing to balance its 2014/15 operating budget. The savings will be derived from a reduction in utility costs, staffing (administrative, teaching, custodial) and busing costs according to a report from Secretary Treasurer Kevin Futcher. Trustees voted to
cancel the program Tuesday evening during their regular board meeting over pleas from a small group of parents and students in the audience to keep the program. Student Jack MacInnis explained to the board how much he liked the program. Parent Tara Sharp talked about the benefits of the balanced calendar program and smaller schools, adding that some parents were considering moving their children to private schools or home schooling them if the program was cancelled. She said the students were already trauma-

Student Jack MacInnis addresses the board. tized by the closing of their school last year and having the school’s student body split off to two different schools, and it would be unfair to make them go through another change. After Glendale Elementary School was closed last June, the
French Immersion program at the school was moved to Nesika elementary and the Balanced Calendar program was moved to Cataline elementary in September. Sharp also questioned why some schools such as Wild-
wood elementary with low enrolments were being kept open at the expense of the balanced calendar program. Superintendent Mark Thiessen explained that the district receives additional grants from the Ministry of Education to keep rural schools open. The trustees discussed the pros and cons of the decision to cancel the balanced calendar program at length and took turns explaining and apologizing for having to make the decision to cut the program. In addition to having to find measures to balance the district’s
budget, they noted enrolment in the balanced calendar program had dropped. There were 52 students in the balanced calendar program at Glendale but when it was moved to Cataline last fall enrolment dropped to 28 students. As Chair Tanya Guenther started to explain the situation, one parent in the audience shouted that the district had done nothing to promote the balanced calendar program. In cancelling the program the trustees also agreed to send copies of the district’s school of choice policy to each of the families affected by
the change. Assistant Superintendent Harj Manhas said he had personally contacted each of the families in the program to explain the situation and ask where they would like their students placed next year. Thiessen said he hoped that most parents of children in the balanced calendar program would choose to keep their children together at Cataline with their friends. In a separate presentation the secretary treasurer outlined other areas where the district is working to balance its 2014/15 operating budget.
City councillors favouring three per cent tax increase Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer City council is leaning toward a three per cent tax increase for 2014, but the vote is four against three.
At its regular meeting Tuesday, council introduced and gave the first three readings to the 2014-2018 financial plan bylaw. The bylaw will be given reconsideration
and adoption on May 6, and on the same day, council will consider the tax rate bylaw, which has to be finalized by May 13. Mayor Kerry Cook and councillors

AN APPLE A DAY... Generic medications are biologically identical to their brand-name counterparts but they may differ in appearance at times.

We will let you know when there is a change in brand. Let us know if you experience a change in effect. As summer approaches, many people look at diets to lose weight. Some of these diets concentrate on certain foods in greater abundance than one would eat normally. Let your doctor and pharmacist know you are trying one of these diets, especially if you are taking drugs like the “blood thinner” warfarin. Some foods can interfere with warfarin’s action and may alter regular blood tests. For many people, eating liver isn’t high on their preferred food list. However, prior to 1948, people diagnosed with pernicious anemia were prescribed a diet of raw liver. In that year, vitamin B-12 was first discovered as a chemical entity and a supplement was developed to treat the anemia. Much easier to take!

Garceau said to go forward with a zero tax increase is not sustainable for the city. “We are suggesting we invest two per cent toward a pavement management plan,”
Garceau said. Bonnell encouraged the public to let elected public officials know what they think about the bylaw, whether they are for or against the bylaw.

First Nations chiefs make appeal against racism Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Three local First Nations leaders have appealed to city council to help combat racism in Williams Lake. On Tuesday evening Williams Lake Indian Band Chief Ann Louie, Canoe Creek Chief David Archie and Canim Lake Chief Mike Archie appeared before city council. Racism has increased openly after the New Prosperity Mine was rejected and the Specific Claims Tribunal ruled in Williams Lake Indian Band’s favour, Louie said. “Students have experienced racism and violence since those two announcements,” Louie said. “You as elected officials are elected for every citizen of Williams Lake, not just the nonFirst Nations.” Racism is homegrown and people should look at themselves and how they are dealing with it in their own homes and determine if they are part of the solution or part of the problem, she said. There are approximately 2,500 First Nations residents living in and around the city, she continued. City council’s silence is a form of acceptance, and she has

“We also employ non-First Nations who in turn pay taxes to the city through property taxes and pay income tax.” She estimated, frugally, that on average her community members alone are spending $19 million a year in Williams Lake. “Yet we are told we are a burden on society,” she added. People need to understand that First Nations bands are a form of government. They administer programs in health, child welfare, education, and social development with funding received from both levels of govern-

As well, organizations pay taxes and purchase insurance such as Three Corners Health Society, Northern Shuswap Tribal Council Society, Cariboo Chilcotin Aboriginal Training and Employment Centre and three tribal councils.

ment, she contiued. Communities within the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council are presently in treaty negotiations and if they are successful the local economy will benefit. “First Nations people are here to stay and we take pride in our contributions,” Louie said. Chief Dave Archie suggested there have been advances in the last 40 years, but the time is right to rise and be a part of the solution. Williams Lake will always be and there will always be First Nations around supporting it, he said. “When we grow strong everyone will get to feel that growth. I think there’s just a lot of fear out there, that the Indians want too much. “People wonder if we want all the land back? It’s us working together that can dispel all the fears out there, but also to dispel the fears that we carry.” Council agreed to discuss the issue further, working with First Nations leaders. “Racism isn’t acceptable and it starts with education, a willingness to listen and move forward,” Mayor Kerry Cook said. “You’ve highlighted a lot of the benefits that people don’t often think about.”

Goldfuss says goodbye after 31 years Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The city’s director of municipal services has resigned to take up a similar post in Ladysmith on Vancouver Island. Kevin Goldfuss handed in his resignation Tuesday. His last day working for the city will be at the end of June. He begins work in Ladysmith on July 2. Originally from Port Alberni, the 50-year-
old said he has lived in Williams Lake for 31 years and worked at the city for 28. “It’s going to be hard to leave this place,” Goldfuss told the Weekend Advisor Thursday. “It’s a difficult decision for our family, but my mom’s still alive and living on Vancouver Island. We have a new grand baby in the Lower Mainland and feel it’s an opportunity for us to all be living

he wanted to thank the city staff, all the city councils he has worked
with and the community. “In this position I literally met hundreds of people, that’s a rewarding part of living in Williams Lake,” he continued. As a manager he has had the privilege to work with great people and knows he will miss them. “City councils put policies together and staff implement them.

Waterfront access to Williams Lake drying up Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Access to Williams Lake’s waterfront is limited at best, and is about to get worse. On Tuesday, city council passed a motion to have no parking signs erected on both sides of Dutch Point Road in between South Lakeside Drive and the lake. Many people utilize the road to access the lake in the summer for boating and in the winter with snow machines
and motorcycles, city staff noted in a report to council. The issue of the road was brought to the city by three residents who live on Dutch Point Road. Coun. Surinderpal Rathor said residents have told him when people park their vehicles on the road, they cannot get to their homes, adding emergency vehicles would not be able to get in either. The nearest road where people can park
are on sections along South Lakeside Drive, he said. There are really only two developed public access points to the lake — at Scout Island and Dutch Point Road. Concerned about removing one of them, Coun. Geoff Bourdon said instead of closing an access the city should be looking to improve access. Coun. Ivan Bonnell agreed saying lake access is of prime importance, while Coun. Sue Zacharias suggested
the solution is to extend the hours that Scout Island is open to the public. “We have this wonderful boat launch and access there,” Zacharias said. “There is absolutely no reason Scout Island should be closed and have the limited hours it has.” There is some possibility that Dutch Point Road could be widened in the future and provide for some parking, but the road would have to be transferred to the city and that
could take months, general manager of operations Geoff Goodall said. Presently the road is on CN Rail property and the responsibility of the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, and in fact the city will need approval from CN Rail to erect the no-parking signs.

als in their own right,” he added. Municipal services covers roads, parks, water and waste, buildings, the airport, mechanical and the city’s vehicles. “Those guys are out there at all hours, plowing roads or fixing burst pipes,” he added. “They work really hard.” His wife Michelle will be leaving her job at the Sacred Heart Preschool Daycare as well.

Police forced into social work There’s a reason why we call them first responders. Police, firefighters and paramedics are the first people called when we need help. It used to be for fires, car accidents or falling from a tree. But soon police, firefighters and paramedics are going to have to add ‘social worker’ to their job descriptions. When they’re walking or biking the beat, police are often the ones contacting social service providers for people in need, checking on vulnerable people to ensure they’re safe, and diffusing dangerous situations. It’s a specialized skill set that used to fall to case workers. As the provincial government closes facilities for people with mental illness, reduces services and resources, case loads for social workers increase and people simply fall through the cracks. Where the police used to be

the last call, now they’re often the first. Care for people with mental illness, brain injury or developmental disabilities is complex. With fewer doctors available to take new patients, those high-maintenance clients are left calling crisis lines and walkin clinics for stop-gap measures instead of a solution. Add in poverty, poor nutrition, barriers to housing and it doesn’t take long for someone barely getting by to suddenly end up in crisis. It takes a community to raise a child, but it also takes a community to ensure that our most vulnerable people are safe and cared for. That means access to food and nutrition, health care, adequate social services and affordable housing – not a jail cell. – Black Press
For better or for worse — for you and me Let’s just say, for a moment, that everything on earth was once harmonious. What a thought! Perhaps one day we will see that again, but in the meantime — what? And sharply and more pointedly, what is one to do with pain? Not the stub-your-toe kind, but the in-your-face, or behind-your-back, inescapable pain that comes in knife twists. Pain between you and someone else. Conflict and charged words. Misunderstanding. Hurt that injures fathoms deeper than a bloody toe. There are so many delicious options! Of course, revenge comes to mind quickly, but it’s so prevalent now as to nearly be boring. Shootings, internet ‘slapping,’ social media posts, lawsuits,

and snubs might feel good — but is that who I want to be? Alternatively, we could try pretense. We could feign everything is OK, that the hurt never existed. But fake doesn’t wear well; it has a way of failing us at highly inopportune times. A burble of tears at an unex-
pected thought, or a word dagger that slips out. What is pain for, anyway? If it is to warn me that something is wrong, or protect me from further damage, perhaps I should pause for a moment. Since learning often develops during suffering, maybe I will stop and listen — just this once! From the long ago and far away, mother’s voice still whispers in my ear. Though there were times it angered me, she would often tell me to “heap coals of fire” on my offender’s head. That sounded good — until she explained what it meant. “Reward them with blessing,” she said. Squirm. “Happy Mother’s Day to you, too,” I thought, through gritted teeth.
Some will suggest keeping a diary of all those nasty throes as a way to deal with it. Really? Focus on it? Guarantee pain’s perpetuity? There are more quotes about pain online than any other topic I have searched. But there is no reason to fertilize those tender spots, or let them dictate our potential. There’s no need to rush to fulfill our cravings for revenge and retribution. Pain will come again, and we can always choose a nasty approach next time, if we really want to. After the next smarting sting, could I first consider the odds before I act? After all, it could be worse — I could be ‘them.’ I could be the one causing the wounds.
We each settle on what barriers we allow to stand. And cherish. And become our fortress. But we can still be noble. We can be our own heroes. “Live above it,” Mamma said. Happy Mother’s Day to me! No one is ever sorry they chose benevolence over cruelty. Forgiveness over retribution. Pity over payback. As Joseph Campbell opined, “Find a place inside where there’s joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.” So, ‘what’s a body to do’ with pain? For better or for worse, perhaps I could just try to avoid being one. Because the future is bigger than today. LOL@wltribune.com.

Area based tenures a controversial topic According to Don Kayne, president and CEO of Canfor Corporation Vancouver, his focus is to make sure they have access to enough fiber to meet the needs of their customers, and they need the support of British Columbians to operate on public lands. He goes on to say in his letter to the Vancouver Sun on April 15, “We feel the benefits of area based tenures are marginal at best and that there are many higher priorities that would yield greater positive impacts.” So who is behind the government’s push to change our volume based system to area based tenures? If you read the Forest Minister’s comments on the government site, it appears that there are two companies in favour of the conversion. The government itself appears to be looking for issues it can take credit for in the next election. If the government issues a few TFLs before the next election it will claim the public will benefit from an increased investment by the corporations in control of these area based tenures. Some suggested reading will show this is a very controversial issue. With the lack of public interested in the issue, the government may just pull this off. The problem is a lack of long term vision and commitment to well managed forests that profit local communities as much or
Forest Ink Jim Hilton more than large corporations. It will take real courage and possibly a different governance model (like local forest trusts) to change the monopolies in our tenure and lumber processing arrangements. Adequate public involvement surely has to be more than the “invitation only” approach outlined in the May 1 forest tenure consultation process proposed by the government and headed by Jim Snetsinger. Maybe we could get some specifics from Mr. Kayne based on another quote from his letter. “Canfor would only support a fully transparent process that is fair to all licences and involves sufficient public support of British Columbians.” For those who got an invitation to meet with Mr. Snetsinger you might ask these questions if they are not already on your list. What are the government’s long-term plans regarding corporate monopolies of the tenures and processing facilities? Is there any limit to the concentration of corporate power the government will tolerate on our public forest lands? Currently in Williams Lake,
we are down to two companies with volume based tenures controlling most of the milling capacity. Is the government concerned about further amalgamation into a single corporation controlling 90 per cent of the milling capacity and 80 per cent of the tenures of this province? What plans do they have for dealing with the intrusion of genetically modified (GM) plants onto the public forests? Are they concerned that the research on GM poplar trees
could lead the way for a Monsanto-type corporation controlling our forests like they control many crops in the agriculture industry? Some suggestions on how you can express your opinions are the following: In the case of the TFL issue, I suggest you read some articles by Bill Bourgeois or Fred Marshall. Both are RPFs and provide a good review of the issues leading up to the government’s proposals.
Some may recall that Mr. Bourgeois worked for Lignum before it was taken over by one of the corporate feeding frenzies. You could phone, send letters, attend meetings or participate in the government’s site, http:// engage.gov.bc.ca/foresttenures. Jim Hilton is a professional agrologist and forester who has lived and worked in the Cariboo Chilcotin for the past 40 years. Now retired, Hilton still volunteers his skills with local community forests organizations.
Restructuring post-secondary education a good thing B.C. is restructuring its education system somewhat so young people can get skills training before they leave high school. I think it’s a great idea, it perhaps is a bit late, why could the government have not done this sooner? When I was growing up in Saskatchewan, in the day, they had trade training in some high schools starting at Grade 10. Getting some trades training in high schools gives young people a head start in the work place and maybe that may mean some may stay at home. A recent poll in B.C. asked a question relating to how the government manages B.C. ed-

ucation. It showed most people thought the education system was OK, however, those in the 35-54 group that earned less than $50,000 per year and voted NDP in the last election were less than satisfied with
the system. Part of the problem with education in this province is the teacher union (BCTF) and the government. They don’t get along very well and have not for a number of years, and this conflict between the two groups did not happen just when the Liberals were in power, but also when the NDP were government. (Can you remember that far back?) During the current negotiations the two sides are still far apart. The government is offering a 10-year deal with a seven-percent wage increase over the first six years, and increases tied to inflation in the follow-
ing four years. The teachers are seeking a 13.5-per cent raise over three years, smaller classes and more support for special-needs kids. I think the teachers should be allowed their basic human rights to freedom of association, and to teach in our public schools without having to be a member of the B.C. Teacher’s Federation. The BCTF has such an incredible lock on the teachers that it has destroyed any hope for desperately needed reforms in our public education system. I understand each year the BCTF collects about $40 million in union dues, and the union uses many of those mil-
lions to fight a running battle with the government, for control of our education system. I think that teachers are very special people and by-in-part do a good job of educating our children. Keep up the good work. *** Don’t forget the big city birthday party tomorrow. There are many activities for all family members at the Boitanio Park starting with breakfast. Hope to see you at some of the many fun things as we celebrate 85 years as a wonderful and fun city. Ken Wilson is a freelance columnist with the Tribune/Weekend Advisor.

strument or who sings, will sing the same song at the same time from coast to coast.” This is the second year School District 27 has hosted a Music Monday event. School participants will include music groups from Lake City Secondary School, many elementary school choirs, Peter Skene Ogden, and elementary bands/choirs from 100 mile elemen-
tary schools, along with various musicians from across the Cariboo, Eilers says. Participants will start off singing and playing the Music Monday song, then each of the groups will perform one or two pieces each on their own. “It is a great event to promote music education and the students last year had a lot of fun!”
She says Music Monday is an event to promote the importance of music education. “Every two years a new song is written by a Canadian artist, and is then transcribed into a plethora of arrangements for different groups, such as band, choir, steel drums and recorders,” Eilers says. She says 2014 marks the 10th anniversary
of the Coalition for Music Education’s Music Monday project, an event which gets bigger and bigger every year. The song, lyrics and arrangements can be found on musicmonday.ca. “The event takes place the first Monday in May every year and it has become a day that many students across the country look forward to,” Eilers says.

A Story Worth Hearing I love a good story. Telling a good story is an art form, and there are some doozies in the books that were written about the life of Jesus. Luke was a doctor in ancient Palestine, a man of science who wanted to tell the story about Jesus. He searched out the facts with hours of testimony from eye witnesses to the life of Jesus. We are left with a masterpiece called the Gospel According To Luke. It is filled with vignettes that awaken our imagination and cause us to smile with wonder. One such vignette is told about two of Jesus’ students walking to a village called Emmaus (Luke 24:13-34). The day was Sunday, the first day of the week. This was the Sunday that we now remember as ‘Easter’ or Resurrection Day. But these two men knew nothing about a resurrection. They were convinced that Jesus, their hero, was dead. The freedom movement they hoped he would start was, presumably, also dead. They had much to discuss and much to mourn. Engrossed in conversation as they journeyed along, it took them a while to recognize that a stranger had come up alongside them. He wanted to know what they are talking about. They were
were burning with the story of the Messiah. They sat down at the table to eat. The stranger lifted the dinner bread and thanked God for it in Aramaic. He broke it. The disciples’ hearts burned with wonder and their dull eyes were opened. They looked across the table and recognized Jesus their teacher and Savior! He was with them the whole time. In that moment he smiled (my addition) and vanished—no doubt off to show someone else that he really did conquer death. He was PARSONS PEN RISEN indeed! As a good story should, this BY JEREMY VOGT one inspires wonder and raises questions. It offers hope and amazed, believing they had met invites a response. The hope the only person in the region who offered is this: even though you knew nothing of Jesus. Urged on may feel alone, you are not.

He is not a bully. They were amazed at his knowledge Revelation 3:20 (NLT) says “Look! and insight into the old prophecies. I stand at the door and knock.

As in past years the organizing committee is seeking support from parents and the public through a variety of fundraising events taking place between now and then, and of course on the night itself says Marilyn Strohschein, the Dry Grad 2014 communications representative. The major fundraiser is the Dry Grad 2014 truck raffle. “This year the grand prize for our truck raffle is a 1998 GMC Sierra 4x4 extended auto,” Strohschein says. Second prize is a six-foot, hand-crafted log bench, donated by Pioneer Log Homes. Third prize is two tickets to a BC Lions home game, plus two, $200 vouchers from Central Mountain Air. Tickets are $10 and will be available at the various fundraising events taking place around the city in which the Dry Grad volunteer participation is needed. Help will be needed at the following events, Strohschein says. • The first hot-dog fundraiser is this week at the Brick on Thursday, May 1, Friday, May 2, Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. • The Lions/Lioness Mother’s Day breakfast and flea market coming up Sunday, May 11.

LAWNS, HOMES & GARDENS Spring lawn seeding essentials
Spring has sprung, and there are many activities to enjoy now that the warmer weather has arrived. Many homeowners make the most of warmer weather by tackling projects around their properties. While autumn is a better time to overseed a lawn for new growth,
satisfactory results still can be had if seeding is done early enough in the spring. Grass needs ample time to establish roots and grow strong before the summer heat takes its toll. Many types of grass need six to 12 weeks of ideal temperatures and growing conditions to germi-

nate and produce a sturdy grass that will grow and endure. Seeding can be done to rejuvenate an existing lawn and fill in bare spots. It also can be done to start a lawn from scratch. The following are some tips to help make seeding projects more successful. * Begin by raking the lawn to remove thatch and any fallen leaves leftover from autumn and winter. Raking also enables you to inspect the lawn for bare patches or matting of grass that may be indicative of a fungus or other problem. * Dust off the mower and trim the lawn short, especially if it was left long at the end of last season. This will help seed penetrate the blades of grass and get to the soil beneath. * High-traffic lawns may need aeration to counteract compacted soil. Moss on the ground is often an indication of compaction. Aeration will help with this problem, as it pokes holes
Spring is the season to assess lawn health and reseed as necessary to ensure a healthy lawn into the soil to enable oxygenation that keeps new grass robust and promotes faster growth. Lawn aerators can be rented from many garden centers. * Spread a mixture of topsoil and compost
over the top of the lawn. This will add nutrients through organic matter to the lawn and create a good base for the new seed to take root. It will also help strengthen any existing grass and promote long-term health. * Test a sample of the soil to check the pH. Grass prefers a neutral pH, but some soil tends to lean toward the acidic side, especially if you see the presence of moss. Knowing the pH will help determine just how much lime per square foot you will need to adjust it accordingly. Liming is a
corrective measure and does not need to be used on a healthy, thriving lawn. * Invest in a spreader to add seed to the lawn. The spreader will have various settings that enable you to calibrate the rate of seed dispersion depending on your walking speed. Fill the spreader with seed and begin to walk around the lawn. Drop spreaders require you to apply seed in rows with no overlap. Broadcast spreaders will cast seed widely and may need some overlap to guarantee complete coverage.
* Spread another thin layer of compost mix over the seed and water thoroughly. The compost will help keep moisture in while the seeds germinate. * Aim for lawn watering two to three times per day. The seed should be barely dry between watering. After seeds have germinated and established, you can reduce the frequency of watering but increase the depth of the watering to keep roots strong. * Avoid foot traffic on a newly seeded lawn until the grass is well established..

LAWNS, HOMES & GARDENS Start your garden off on the right foot As winter slowly winds down, many gardeners cannot wait to soak up the springtime sun and get their hands dirty in the garden. Such excitement is not just good for gardeners, but can benefit the garden in the months to come as well. Late winter or early spring is a great time to get a head start on the gardening season. Even if gardening season is still around the corner, completing the following projects can ensure your garden gets off on the right foot. Clear debris One of the best things you can do for your garden as winter winds down is to clear it of debris. Winter can be especially harsh on a landscape, and gardens left to the elements are often filled with debris once spring arrives. Dead leaves, fallen branches, rocks that surfaced during the winter frost, and even garbage that might have blown about in winter winds can all pile up in a garden over a typical winter. Clearing such debris likely won’t take long, but it’s a great first step toward restoring the garden before the time comes to plant and grow the garden once again. Examine the soil Soil plays a significant role in whether a garden thrives or struggles. Examining the soil before the season starts can help gardeners address any issues before they plant. Ignoring the soil until a problem arises can turn the upcoming gardening season into a lost opportunity, so test the soil to determine if it has any nutrient or mineral deficiencies. This may require the help of a professional, but if a problem arises, you might be able to
adjust the acidity or alkalinity of the soil and still enjoy a successful gardening season. Another way to examine the soil is less complex but can shed light on when would
be a good time to get back to work. Reach into the soil and dig out a handful. If the soil quickly crumbles, you can start preparing for gardening seasoning. But if the soil is
still clumped together, it needs more time to dry out before you can begin your prep work. Initiate edging Edging is another task gardeners can begin as they get ready

for the season. Edge plant and flower beds, but be sure to use a spade with a flat blade or an edger designed to edge flower beds. Such tools will cut deep enough so grass roots that may eventually grow into the flower bed are severed. Depending on how large a garden is, edging can be a time-consuming task, so getting a head start allows homeowners to spend more time planting and tending to their gardens once the season hits full swing. Fight weeds Though weeds likely have not survived the winter, that does not mean they won’t return once the weather starts to heat up. But as inevitable as weeds may seem, homeowners can take steps to prevent them from turning beautiful gardens into battlegrounds where plants, flowers and vegetables are pitted against unsightly and potentially harmful weeds. Spring is a good time to apply a pre-emergent weed preventer, which can stop weeds before they grow. Though such solutions are not always foolproof, they can drastically reduce
the likelihood of weed growth. Though gardeners might not be able to start planting their gardens in late winter or early spring, they can still get outside and take steps to ensure their gardens thrive once planting season begins.

Greg Sabatino Staff Writer It’s so far so good for Williams Lake pro motocross racer Brock Hoyer, who’s lit up the track at the B.C. Motocross Association Championship Series’ first two races. The 26-year-old rider took wins April 5 in Ashcroft in the MX-2 Pro and Youth classes, before duplicating the feat last weekend at Kamloops’ Whispering Pines Raceway. Hoyer has been competing in the BCMACS since 1997. “It’s been a long time,” he said. “This series is the grassroots of racing. It started here [for me, racing in Williams Lake] and it’s always fun to get out and ride with the kids.” Hoyer added he’s been preparing to race the Monster Energy Motocross Nationals beginning May 31 at Nanaimo’s Wastelands with round one. He’s also been busy riding for snow bike videos for upcoming releases from Nitro Circus, Thunderstruck and Brap. “Nationals are only three weeks away, so I’ve just been getting prepared for that,” he said. “I’ll be doing Nanaimo, then

The game gave new players the opportunity to prove their potential and gave experienced players a chance to demonstrate their leadership and rugby skills. In the first half, Emma Feldinger scored two tries and Carrie Lang scored one. In the second half Gina Davis, Michélyn Whitford and Celina Moore each achieved

City to offer new Junior Lifeguard program; starts Wednesday, May 7 Registration for the upcoming Junior Lifeguard program is underway at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. Deb Radolla, manager of active living with the city, said one of her department’s goals this year was to create the program in order to grow its base of lifeguards over the next few years. “Participants could become staff members when they turn 16,” Radolla said. The program’s instructor, Kendra Freeland, has a wealth
of experience working with youth and is excited to launch the program, Radolla said. Participants in the program will work toward their Rookie, Ranger and Star Patrol Awards from the Canadian Lifesaving Society. Participants should also be able to swim one length of the pool and tread water for one minute. “The Junior Lifeguard Club is a place to build on swimming skills, learn the basics of personal safety,
first aid and aquatic rescue, while having fun with new friends,” Radolla said. The program runs Wednesday from 3:45 to 4:30 p.m. beginning May 7 and running until June 25. The cost of the program is $45, which includes pool time, award stickers, coaching and training for eight weeks. The program takes place at the Sam Ketcham Memorial Pool.

Water skiers medal at international competition Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Williams Lake father and son duo of Parnell Pinette and Conley Pinette skied to success recently at the 2014 International Waterski and Wakeboard Federation Pan American Water Ski Championships. Conley, 14, and Parnell competed as members of Team Canada at the event, hosted in Bogotá, Colombia, from April 14-19. Conley, who spent the
early part of April training with Team Canada in Florida alongside world water ski champion Jaret Llewellyn and Team Canada coach Matt Rini, finished with a silver medal in the under-17 team competition. The U.S. won the gold medal, while Peru finished with bronze. Parnell, meanwhile, skied to an overall bronze-medal finish. He also added a silver medal in the team competition, a bronze medal in jump and a sixth-place result
in slalom to his resumé. At the 2012 Pan American Games Parnell was a bronze medalist in the 35-plus men’s jump. Conley was the 2012 Pan American under-13 overall gold medalist and was the 2012 silver medalist in under-13 jump. The Pan American Water Ski Championships are held every two years. Conley now has his sights set on competing at the Junior Waterski World Championships at the end of July.

Generations collide as runners prepare for BMO Marathon Photo submitted
Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Williams Lake runners Cade Enns, 13, and Sheldon Manchur, 28, have something in common. It was 18 years ago when Sheldon, who recently returned from a six-month marathon training regiment in Iten, Africa, working with some of the top marathon runners in the world — set the 1,000-metre Grade 6 record along with his brother, Trent — who set the Grade 4 record — in the School District 27 District Run. Last year Cade and his brother, Finley, both broke longstanding records held by Sheldon and Trent. Cade’s new Grade 6 record is three minutes and 25 seconds. This weekend Sheldon and Cade will both be taking in the atmosphere at the BMO Vancouver Marathon. Cade will be running the eight-kilometre BMO Teen Challenge, while Sheldon will be competing in the full marathon. After Cade and Finley broke Sheldon’s record, they thought it was neat that two brothers broke another two brothers’ record. Following the race they decided to meet Sheldon and have since kept in touch, even throughout Sheldon’s training in Iten. Both took time this week to train together, while Sheldon shared stories about his experience in Iten with Enns.

PLAN NUMBER 2-3-752 IDEAL FOR A GROWING FAMILY This attractive two-storey home, with a glass-fenced covered deck that wraps around part of the front and side, would be ideal for a growing family, since it includes three bedrooms on the main living floor, plus room for a fourth on the ground floor. The covered entry leads into a foyer with the den, with a cupboard to store the hot-water tank and furnace as well as built-in shelves to the right. On the left is the Ushaped staircase to the main floor, with storage tucked beneath the stairs. Still in the foyer, a coat closet is located opposite to a doorway to the double garage. Upstairs, the great room boasts a vaulted ceiling, plus French doors on to the covered deck and a gas fireplace flanked by windows. The open space in the stairwell is safely surrounded by railings. In the kitchen and dining area, the ceilings rise to nine feet. These rooms share sliding doors to a patio overlooking the back garden, making outdoor dining an easy choice during the warmer months. The kitchen’s U-shaped counter configuration will save many steps for the cook, and a large pantry will provide extra storage. A three-seat eating bar provides an ideal spot for quick meals and snacks. The master suite overlooks the front garden and includes a spacious walk-in closet and a four-piece ensuite with a soaker tub and a glassed-in shower stall.
A bookcase just inside the doorway will provide storage space for bedtime reading. The secondary bedrooms, both looking out to the back garden, share a three-piece bath. The linen cupboard and laundry room are located near the bedrooms, along with a small storage space. On the ground floor, a fourth bedroom has been planned for future family growth, in addition to a sec-
ondary suite. Exterior finishes include horizontal siding, vertical board-and-batten and decorative woodwork in the gables, and stone-based pilasters flanking the entrance. This home measures 48 feet wide and 9 feet deep, for a total of 1,421 square feet. All ceilings rise to nine feet, except where otherwise indicated. Plans for design 2-3-752 are

Bike safety the theme for Bicycle Rodeo Bicycle safety will be the theme for the Bicycle Rodeo on Saturday, May 3 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Canadian Tire parking lot. All children who can ride tricycles or bicycles are encouraged to attend. Bring your bicycle and helmet along. You must register for this free program. Call the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex at 250-398-7665. This year the McDonald’s Bicycle Rodeo committee is teaming up with the Cariboo Chilcotin Conservation Society who, in partnership with Red Shred’s Bike and Board Shed, is offering gently used bicycles for anyone that doesn’t own a bike. Anyone needing a used bicycle can call the Conservation Society at 250-398-7929 and ask for Briana van de Wijngaard. The Bike Rodeo promotes safe bicycle riding habits which will reduce accidents involving children. The event is free and offers many interactive activities for children. “As more people start riding their bikes it is important to remind riders that safety and awareness are critical,” said Dave Dickson, safer communities co-ordinator. “Parents should always wear a helmet as it shows children through example that you should never ride your bicycle without one.” A course with a series of eight safety stations will give children the opportunity to learn correct riding skills. A safety inspection of the bicycle is the first stop on the course. Professionals will also check the child’s bike helmet to make sure it fits well and is being worn properly. “Children suffer injuries doing wheeled activities because of a combination of factors that most commonly include inexperience, loss of control, lack of traffic safety skills, high speed and the tendency to attempt stunts,” states the Safe
Kids Canada website. The remaining bike safety stations will focus on riding techniques and skills. Children will
be asked to ride through established courses of figure eights, circles, and parallel lines. The emphasis for children
at this event is to learn how to control their bicycle. Sponsors of this event are: McDonald’s, Suc-
cess by Six, United Way, Canadian Tire, the Brain Injury Society, Community Policing, Red Shreds, Boys and
Girls Club, Youth for Christ and the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. Contact Suzanne Co-
chrane or Denise Skarra at 250-398-7665 for more information or visit activewilliamslake. com.

Lakecity dirtbikers tackle Odessa Desert 100 Widely considered one of the most prestigious off-road races of the year, the Odessa, WA., Desert 100 treated a small group of local dirtbikers to an epic weekend April 5-6. Brayden Methot, his dad Brad Methot, Dave Dunaway, Steve Mass and Mike Kozolofski made the trip to the race, which has attracted close to 3,000 entrants for the annual poker run Saturday and another 1,000 racers for Sunday’s main event annually since 1969. Sunday’s Desert 100 has the longest offroad starting line in the world stretching more than three kilometres wide. “All the racers stand 10 metres behind their bikes and when a cannon in the distance goes off everyone runs to their bikes, starts
Mike Kozolofski, Brad Methot, Brayden Methot, Steve Mass and Dave Dunaway (not pictured) recently competed in the Odessa, WA., Desert 100. them, then it’s a drag race across open desert for the ‘holeshot’ — the first one to the first turn,” Brad said. For Mass and Kozolofski, it was their first race ever. The duo competed in the Iron Man Poker Run Saturday, and the 160-kilometre Desert 100 Sunday, placing 205th and 125th overall, respectively.
Brayden turned some heads in the pro class finishing fourth in four hours and two minutes in the Desert 100, good enough for a top-10 finish. “Each lap was 50 miles,” Brayden said. “The starting line was crazy. You were seeing guys going down right beside you going 100 kilometres an hour in the desert and making
blind passes because you can’t see anything because of the dust.” Dave and Brad, meanwhile, had a good day in the “Fast Old Guys Class” posting 20th- and 17th-place finishes. “Desert racing in the U.S. is crazy to say the least,” Brad said. “A big shout out to Williams Lake Honda for all the support.”
