IT LOOKS GOOD! - OH! OH! Liz Twan photo

From this vantage point this steer wrestling run looks like money-in-the-bank for 150 Mile House steer wrestler Mike Hurst. With fire in his eye and a steely determined look on his face it looks as though the steer doesn’t have a chance of not going down, but what could have been, maybe should have been, ended with, no-time. Somehow this steer slipped from the grasp of the burly steer wrestler before he could be thrown, adding insult to injury, it then slowly trotted off down the arena to the catch-pen. The action took place during the Sunday performance of the Esk’et (Alkali Lake) Rodeo, under sunny skies in front of many knowledgeable rodeo fans who groaned in unison as the steer made its getaway.

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The RCMP are still looking for information after shots were allegedly fired at officers on the Anaham Reserve early Sunday.

At around 1 a.m. an Alexis Creek RCMP officer was at Anaham conducting curfew checks when the officer wit-

nessed two men allegedly attempting to start a stolen pickup truck.

“Upon approach, the passenger fled, but the driver was taken into custody,” the RCMP said. “While the officer was dealing with the man in custody, two other men, one of them armed with a knife approached the arresting officer and threatened him.”

Other officers were immediately called to assist and the suspects who threatened the officer, fled on foot.

Additional officers attended the scene and initiated a search for the suspects who allegedly threatened the arresting officer.

During the search, several shots were fired at police at two different time intervals.

Sam Ketcham Pool Referendum Question of the Week

Wednesday, July 30 - Iceberg Wednesday, August 13 - Floaty Toys

CMRC - 1:30pm - 4:00 pm

Q: Will the pool be closed for a long time?

A: The amount of time the pool would be closed depends mostly on the result of the referendum. The proposed project which would occur after a “Yes” vote can be built in two phases so that there is water open for public use most of the time during construction. In the recommended concept, the new leisure pool would be built first and the main tank would remain open during construction. When the leisure pool is complete, it would open and the main tank would be closed for replacement. This phased process would take between 16-20 months to complete. There would be short periods of time when both pools are unavailable.

In the event of a “No” vote for the referendum, replacement of the main tank will still occur and the entire pool area (including hot tub, wading pool, steam room and sauna) would be closed for approximately 12 months.

HELP THE CITY SAVE WATER AND THE ENVIRONMENT WITH THE LOW FLOW TOILET/APPLIANCE REBATE PROGRAM Many homes in Williams Lake are equipped with older toilets, dishwashers or clothes washers that require more water to operate. New low flow toilets and appliances require much less water while doing the same function.

By replacing your old toilet and appliances, you could use up to one-third less water! That could save the average household more than 300 liters per day, or 100,000 liters per year.

The City is offering a MAXIMUM of two rebates per residential unit per year.

1. Toilets using 4.8 liters or less, with a Maximum Performance (MaP) Tested approved new low flow fixture. Visit website www.cwwa.ca/freepub_e.asp to view.

2. Dishwashers that are on the approved list on the City’s website.

3. Clothes washers that are on the approved list on the City’s website.

WHY HAS THE CITY INITIATED THIS LOW FLOW TOILET/APPLIANCE REBATE PROGRAM? The City of Williams Lake wants to reduce the amount of water consumed as well as the amount of water flowing into the sanitary sewer system. It costs money to treat the water coming in and going out of your house. Using less water saves both money and the environment for everyone who lives in and around the Cariboo.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE REBATE?

This offer is only for owners of residential units that are connected to the City of Williams Lake’s Water and Sewer system. There is a YEARLY limit of two toilets/appliance rebates per residential unit.

Simple toilet replacements do not require a plumbing permit. However, if you are also renovating, you must apply for a building permit.

NEW CONSTRUCTION

For new construction in the City of Williams Lake, all plumbing must adhere to the BC Plumbing codes. However, the City is providing rebates for those

property owners or contractors who choose to install MaP approved Dual Flush toilets (3/4.8L) and 3 liter fixtures instead of the minimum code requirement for toilet installation. There is no maximum for this incentive.

WHAT ABOUT MY OLD TOILET OR APPLIANCE?

Your old toilet or appliance must be disposed of at the City of Williams Lake’s Municipal Worksyard at 555 N Second Avenue. You must have a copy of the approved Rebate Form with you when the fixture is dropped off. The form must be signed by a City representative.

WHAT DO I NEED TO APPLY FOR THE REBATE PROGRAM?

1. Pick up an application form at City Hall, Development Services, 450 Mart Street. Fill it in and return to City Hall.

2. Provide a receipt for the purchase of an approved low flow fixture.

3. Provide proof of installation of a low flow toilet or appliance and proof that the old toilet or appliance has been brought to the Municipal Worksyard. This is achieved by: • An inspection of the newly installed toilet in place by a City Representative.

• A signed copy of the application form proving the old unit was dropped off at the Municipal Worksyard located at 555 North Second Avenue.

4. You must agree to permit the representative of the City of Williams Lake access to inspect the installation.

Simple toilet replacements do not require a plumbing permit. However, if you are also renovating, you must apply for a building permit.

City staff will review your application and, if you qualify, the City of Williams Lake will mail you a cheque for each eligible low flow toilet or appliance (up to two rebates per residential dwelling per year).

This program is on a first come first serve basis. Your application must be approved by the Development Services Coordinator prior to purchasing a low flow toilet to guarantee a rebate.

New Tribune/Weekend Advisor publisher appointed newspaper, in fact the very first of the many Black Press newspapers,” McLean said.

“I hope to be as successful as the individuals who have held the position prior to me.”

Certain there is much to learn, McLean said she is eager to start on this new journey.

Back in 2000, she began her newspaper career at the Advocate.

Soon after her arrival, the Advocate was sold and the Cariboo Advisor was born.

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Lorie Williston, BC North president of Black Press, is pleased to announce the appointment of Kathy McLean as publisher of the Williams Lake Tribune and Weekend Advisor.

McLean accepted the position on July 24, replacing former publisher Lisa Bowering.

“I’m honoured to be the publisher of such a long-standing

Kathy McLean

After years as senior sales representative McLean was promoted to sales manager.

When Black Press acquired the Advisor Group in 2010, McLean became publisher.

In September 2013, The Williams Lake Tribune and the Cariboo Advisor merged as one group and McLean accepted the role of marketing director.

“The newspaper industry has seen its share of changes, but

I believe strongly that the local community newspaper is a vital part of our city and our future,” McLean said. “Where else can you hold local coverage of news, politics and sports written by some of the most talented reporters you will ever find? Plus our readers now have the accessibility of our website and Facebook page as references.”

“I would like to thank our valued business partners and our cherished readers for

their continued support. Without it the Tribune/Weekend Advisor would not be.

“I look forward to working with everyone to help all our local businesses succeed.

“In order to create prosperity in our beautiful city that we all call home it’s important to work as a team, not only in our individual offices, but in our community as well.”

McLean said it has been a challenge the past 14 years, but they

have also been the best years of her life.

“I love what I do and am very grateful for the wonderful people I have had the opportunity to meet.”

During the past couple of years, McLean has also been involved with the Williams Lake and District Chamber of Commerce and sits on the board of directors.

She has called Williams Lake home for 28 years and has happily raised her family here.

Mount Polley Mine shuttle bus slips into ditch Three people were taken to the hospital Thursday, July 24 after a bus travelling with workers en route to Mount Polley Mines went off road right due to poor road conditions, flipping onto its

side.

The incident occurred about one kilometre up the Bootjack FSR road around 6:15 p.m.

“A 43-year-old female was airlifted to Kamloops for possible

non-life-threatening back injuries and two people were taken to Cariboo Memorial Hospital and released later that evening,” Williams Lake RCMP Sgt. Rick Lebeuf said, adding the matter is

still under investigation.

Initially it was reported 45 people were involved , however, when the RCMP arrived it was determined there were ten passengers plus the driver.

Motorcyclist in serious condition after swerving to avoid a cow Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A 47-year-old worker from Gibraltar Mines is in hospital with serious injuries after swerving on his motorcyle to avoid colliding with a cow on the road

while coming home from work Monday evening.

“He had broken ribs and possible internal injuries,” RCMP Sgt. Rick LeBeuf said.

Around 7:25 p.m. two employees were travelling down the

road from the mine on motorcycles when one of them swerved to avoid a cow and went off the road.

The mine’s rescue team arrived on scene, treated the injured rider, and prepared him for transport to Wil-

liams Lake. En route he was transferred to BC Ambulance.

“He was treated at Cariboo Memorial Hospital and then transferred to Vancouver,” said Brian Battison, Taseko Mines vice-president of corporate affairs.

Williams Lake firefighters help in Hudson’s Hope Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Five firefighters and a unit trailer from the Williams Lake fire department returned Monday from helping protect the commu-

nity of Hudson’s Hope from the 160-square-kilometre Mount McAllister wildfire.

“Our structural protection crew was contracted to help the Wildfire Management Branch get ahead of

the wildfire there,” Fire Chief Des Webster said.

The crew left Williams Lake on July 16 with enough heavy equipment to protect 30 buildings using water.

Webster said their efforts helped, coupled with the fact the weather changed and the area received some rain.

The Williams Lake crew was one of two sent to help Hudson’s Hope, the other was a

private contractor from the Okanagan.

“They don’t usually get the local fire department to do that, especially if it’s outside their fire district,” Webster explained.

“We are trained and

equipped to be able to get ahead of the fire and if needs be put sprinklers on buildings and homes. If the fire does encroach upon the buildings then they are already wet or the humidity is so high

around them that the fire goes right around them.”

The unit has been in place for several years and even before acquiring the trailer, the crew attended to help other communities.

NEWS MLAs discuss impact of ferry cuts Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer During a recent visit to Bella Coola and places along Highway 20 to Williams Lake, NDP North Coast MLA Jennifer Rice and NDP Burnaby-Lougheed MLA Jane Shin heard the cancellation of the Discovery Coast ferry is having the serious impacts people living in those communities feared it would.

As soon as Shin landed at the Bella Coola airport and was met by Rice, a senior citizen came up and asked them what is going to be done about the ferry.

“It’s the first thing I heard about when I arrived and the last thing I heard about leaving the region,” Shin said. “It’s a huge concern.”

During a stop at Redstone, the MLAs met Felix and Jasmin Schellenberg, who opened the Kinikinik Restaurant

and store there last Labour Day weekend.

The Schellenbergs told them how dire the situation is.

“We have many lodge owners who stop in for meals at the restaurants from Bella Coola and Anahim Lake and some say it’s disastrous,” Felix told the Tribune.

The Schellenbergs also own land in Kleena Kleene where they hay.

During a recent conversation with a woman who normally works at a lodge near there he learned she has no work this summer.

“She was steadily employed all the years before and now she has no employment, he said.

It is not just lodges, restaurants and gas stations, it’s a ripple effect going through the whole region that is very serious, Felix added.

Many people and organizations have requested government do an economic impact

Campfire ban remains in city Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Campers and people enjoying the outdoors will be happy to learn that campfires are permitted again in the Cariboo Fire Centre east of the Fraser River, however, the campfire and open burning ban remains in place for the city of Williams Lake.

Fire chief Des Web-

ster said Monday the fire ban imposed on July 16 is still in effect.

“We are going to be warming up again so it’s easier just to leave it in place,” he said.

As of last Friday at noon, however, the Cariboo Fire Centre rescinded its campfire prohibition in this area due to cool and wet weather conditions.

The following uses

will now be allowed in areas east of the Fraser River: • campfires, as defined by the wildfire regulation • open fires in an outdoor stove Campfires remain prohibited in the Cariboo Fire Centre west of the Fraser River, due to dry conditions and higher fire danger ratings.

analysis of ferry traffic to the region, but so far government has not agreed that is necessary, Rice said.

“One business owner told us if the government looked at the tax base that’s been withdrawn because of the cancellation of the Discovery Coast Ferry government would find the $17 million they want to save would no longer be there,” Rice said. “There are many people in the region who are committed to working with government to come up with solutions.”

The Cariboo Regional District has unveiled a new online public mapping system on the CRD’s corporate website located at cariboord. ca.

The new proprietary online mapping system, designed and built internally by CRD staff, is an interactive tool which will allow residents and visitors a new way of locating existing facilities and landmarks within the region.

It will also provide an opportunity to learn more about the Cariboo Regional District and the services it provides as a local government.

It is a user-friendly, interactive web-based tool that allows users to search, analyse and display information provided from the Cariboo Regional District Geographical Information Systems (GIS) Department. This tool provides information on proper-

ties (lands and buildings), points of interest, roads, reserves, service areas, and water features.

Earlier this year, the CRD launched its new website which is highlighted by improved navigation, search engine optimization, enhanced internal search capabilities, mobile device compatibility, and is compatible with all major browsers in a user-friendly layout.

Ancient coins had single purpose It’s a thin coin about the size of a quarter. It has “10”_ and “W.E. Anderson Quathiaski Cove” on it.

It came my way via Val Biffert who found it among her mother’s stuff. Her mother taught school on Quadra Island in the late 1930s.

I grew up on French Quadra.

Connection We lived on a Diana French farm at Heriot Bay until I was seven.

Getting to school required either crossing the bay in a row boat or riding several miles on the crossbar of my brother’s bike.

Dad thought this was too hard for a little girl so he took the job as postmaster at Quathiaski Cove, on the other side of the island, where the school was within walking distance.

Quathiaski’s claim to fame was the fish cannery.

Shortly before we moved, BC Packers Ltd. bought the cannery company, which included a general store, from W.E. Anderson. The Andersons had a large two-story summer home which sat on pilings on the beach at the head of the government wharf.

BC Packers converted this building into offices (one for them, one for the post office,) and three apartments.

What had been the ballroom became our three-bedroom apartment.

I have no idea why the Andersons needed a ballroom, but they left their piano behind. Dad bought it from BCP for $1.

Some time after we moved in, we discovered a lot of these coins in the back of the piano.

Until the First Nations fishermen complained in 1922, fishermen were paid this “fish money” which could only be spent at the company store.

(Owe your soul to the company store?)

The coins came in different denominations (I think 1 to 100). Dad got the idea to advertise sets of them in a coin collectors’ magazine. They sold very well.

My friends and I played store with the leftovers. I don’t know what happened to them.

Poor driving habits passed to children It shouldn’t come as any great surprise that a recent ICBC survey found many parents are passing along poor driving habits to their teenagers.

What is less expected is that only about a third of them seem to be aware of the impact their bad behaviour is having.

Whether it’s speeding, failing to come to a complete stop or not properly concentrating on the task at hand, for some, the rules of the road tend to grow a little hazy over the years. And the more comfortable we get behind the wheel, the more corners we tend to cut.

Thanks to experience, most of the time, it works out.

But for young drivers, who in all likelihood still occasionally flip on the wipers when they mean to signal a turn, there is an overwhelming amount of information coming at them fast.

Add to that, heavy traffic, aggressive and impatient drivers and a seemingly endless succession of construction projects to create stress and confusion, and new drivers have enough to deal with.

“Driving is particularly risky for new drivers because they lack experience. Not only are they more prone to crash but on average, 18 per cent of crashes involving young drivers result in an injury or fatality,” the insurance corporation points out.

Allowing teens to start out with bad habits passed down — however inadvertently — is like setting them up to fail.

Along with the caveat, ICBC offers a few tips for parents as they prepare their teens for one of the (simultaneously) greatest freedoms and responsibilities they will ever know.

When possible, they suggest, provide your teen with a vehicle that is a manageable size and has good visibility and an automatic transmission.

Write and sign a family contract, laying out in no uncertain terms what is expected and the consequences of violating the agreement. Ensure they have a firm grasp of the rules and regulations.

Most important, they say, parents should remove themselves from an emotionally charged situation and allow an expert to provide instruction. Whatever the cost, it’s worth it to know you’re giving them their best shot at success.

And, of course, it never hurts to set a good example.

Summer is just flying by as we are fast approaching the August long weekend, B.C. Day. The forecast looks like it is going to be a beautiful weekend to be outside, so why not consider taking a quick road trip up to the Gold Rush Trail and visit Cottonwood House on Monday, Aug. 4 for their B.C. Day celebrations.

The fun and excitement starts at 11 a.m. with heritage games, horse MLA drawn wagon rides and guidMusings ed tours of the Coralee Oakes grounds and of the Boyd House from 1 p.m. until 3 p.m.

There will be a live music performance from Joe Lonsdale from 11 a.m. until 1:00pm, and of course it wouldn’t be a long weekend without a barbecue lunch which will be taking place on the grounds.

This is a great family-friendly event at one of the most historically significant locations in the Cariboo.

Having been designated as a provincial heritage site for nearly 40 years, Cottonwood House has been educating residents, past and present of our heritage and history of the settlers who came to the Cariboo 150 years ago.

If the weather cooperates, take a walk on the trail system on the grounds to give you and your family the full experience of the setting and the way settlers lived at the site over a hundred years ago.

The Boyd family and successive owners have preserved this small piece of history so that we can teach the stories of the past to the future generation of British Columbians and visitors.

While you visit Cottonwood, be sure to share your excursion on social media using Destination B.C.’s hashtag, #ExploreBC on Twitter and Facebook.

This way you can show your friends and family here in B.C. or abroad the beautiful treasures that can be found right in our own backyard.

Have a wonderful B.C. Day everyone!

Coralee Oakes is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo North.

Who pays for land claims?

Editor: As I meet with people in the community, many have questions and concerns regarding the Nemiah land claims.

I am not a news reporter, nor do I have unlimited knowledge about community concerns.

Never-the-less, I continue to be bombarded with questions regarding the Nemiah land claims, many in the community would like clarifying answers as to what the settlement of these land claims really mean.

One question that has often been brought to my attention I place within this letter, hopefully someone, maybe even from the Nemiah band would like to take the time to address the expressed concerns.

One very strong concern that has been expressed revolves around the question of who foots the bill? In the non-native community obtaining ownership to something means responsibility,

responsibility being mostly financial.

As an example a typical very large corporation, could be a ranch, a forest company, a mining company or even lastly a typical home owner. The financial responsibility for lands and property is with the owner, one example might be a large forest corporation, and say an uncontrolled forest fire broke out within the corporation’s forest responsibility.

In the days of provincial forest licenses, and from my experience, it was the responsibility of that corporation to bear the burden and expense in fighting that fire.

Although the corporation may not have to bear the total cost of fighting such a fire, because of the fees, licenses and taxes that the corporation has to pay to the provincial government in the process of the logging, sawmilling, and or pulp mill operation, if that is the case.

Of course it is recognized that most band structure is not financially self sufficient in income structure, so the question is, now that the Nemiah people have settled their land claims, who would pay to fight a forest fire within this greater land claims decision?

A forest fire in this lands claim decision is a concern not only for the average B.C. tax payer, but could as well, be placing an unfair burden on major corporations in how they, from now forward, deal with issues on lands of their responsibility.

Having been at the forefront of past forest fires, quick response with adequate resources is critical to saving lives, property and animal welfare. The question being raised by many is someone aware of these concerns, and what is being done to address these concerns?

Pipeline to Bella Coola not a good idea Editor: There may be worse ideas than Reg Norberg’s suggestion for a pipeline through Tweedsmuir Park to Bella Coola (Tribune Viewpoints July 23), but nothing comes to mind.

The disruption in one of B.C.’s jewel parks, the devastation of the Atnarko watershed and critical spawning area for Chinook, Pinks, and Coho;

www.wltribune.com A7

and the negative upheaval of the Bella Coola community are only a few of the aspects of this idea that are bad.

Add to that the vision of tanker traffic through 100 kilometres of channels from Bella Coola to reach the open ocean and it becomes surreal that anyone would seriously give this a second thought.

However, the reclassifica-

tion of some parks (including South Tweedsmuir) to allow some types of industrial development is alarming and should put us all on alert.

The concept of a pipeline through the Bella Coola Valley is a nightmare that should never become reality.

Tourism suffers with changes to Bella Coola ferry Ernest Hall Special to Tribune/Advisor Midway through the 2014 tourist season, tourism businesses along Highway 20 from end to end are hurting, according to a recent survey conducted by Bella Coola Valley Tourism.

And the future for the industry may be even bleaker.

In a telephone survey of businesses stretching from the Bella Coola townsite

to Riske Creek, nearly all reported business is down this summer – with estimates ranging from 10 to more than 90 percent.

Those suffering most are businesses offering tours in addition to accommodations. Especially suffering are those most dependent on advance bookings by international tourists wishing to take the Discovery Coast Circle Tour – an adventure scuttled this season in cost-cutting measures

Nimkish recommended by BC Ferries and adopted by the BC government.

When asked if business was better or

worse compared to business in 2013, only three reported business to be about the same, noting that their busi-

nesses were not highly dependent on the ferry service. One accommodator/tour operator reported an increase of 10 percent in business which was attributed to an advertising campaign and special offers for fly-in guests Businesses hardest hit are those who have promoted largely through European agencies who used to schedule the Circle Tour as part of a three-week $15,000 “trip of a lifetime” to

British Columbia – the type of booking that is done many months in advance.

This season, tourists and agents were unable to book on the circle tour until late April, which was too late for most international travellers. Consequently, European agents scratched the Circle Tour from their packages, and those travellers found elsewhere to go.

Respondents to the BCVT survey indicated that much of the 2014 tourist traffic involves Canadian travellers.

Most of the businesses surveyed indicated that much of their operation – in some cases, 90 percent — has depended on ­ the summer ferry service. Three of these, seasonal operators in the Chilcotin, said 65 to 98 percent of their business depended on ferry travellers, and the cancellation of Route #40 accounted for business losses of 40 to 90 percent.

One Chilcotin business has nights booked for 13 couples between now and mid-September. In 2013, this number was 130. After 21 years in business, this operator says the upside is that his wife can swim in the lake every day and they are planning an August vacation. They are considering closing down the operation entirely.

One Bella Coola tour operator whose business is 75 percent dependent on ferry traffic said business is down 75 percent at this point while another reported losses of 60 – 80 percent. A third, who offers both accommodation and tours said his business, which is 70 percent ferry-dependent is down a whopping 90 percent over last year.

Not only is the circle tour losing its international travellers. One seasonal operator who has catered to three tour buses each bringing 30 to 40 Canadian seniors on the circle tour for 14 summers has just done so for the last time. These tours, west from Williams Lake, involved stopping for lunch in the

Chilcotin, overnighting at Nimpo Lake, going for a flight-seeing tour of the glaciers to the south, overnighting in Bella Coola, and heading out the channel and across Queen Charlotte Sound to Vancouver Island.

The business loss this season is only part of the gloom that has descended on the industry. With no indication from BC Ferries or the government that plans are under way to address the financial concerns of area businesses, some fear that the damage is much more far-reaching.

Because international travel agencies require months and years to arrange tour packages that depend on reliable bookings, many won’t consider recommending travel involving BC Ferries — even if a more suitable service were put in place immediately.

Such agencies need guarantees of schedules and fares for as long as five years, and as one operator put it, BC Ferries and the BC government have created such a climate of uncertainty that “European tour operators won’t touch BC as a destination.”

Tourism businesses also fear the damage to the region’s reputation caused by the Route 40 cancellation and the Nimpkish replacement. Travellers trying to book on the circle tour are discovering that space is not available, and those who do make the voyage are complaining about the inconvenience of the 16 1/2-hour trip from between Bella Coola and Port Hardy – nine hours of it on an unsuitable vessel arriving in Bella Coola at midnight.

While travellers arriving in Bella Coola on the Nimpkish are lavishing great praise on the crew for their efforts to make the experience enjoyable, many say they would not recommend the Nimpkish experience to others. The Coast Mountain News expects to publish a comprehensive report on passenger reactions to the Nimpkish experience in August.

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Even though they aren’t officially a fire department, the volunteer McLeese Lake fire department is responding to fires.

“We’ve found out about the fires by seeing the smoke,” member Ian Hicks said.

At the recent Soda Creek wildfire, volunteers arrived first on the ground with two trucks and five firefighters.

They also responded to another fire two months ago on the new power line that goes to the Gibraltar Mine.

“Out of the blue one of my volunteers came down and told me we better go have a look,” Hicks said.

Jumping into a F350, they roared up the road and discovered dozens of little fires burning.

“There was an excavator fully engulfed in flames directly under the power line,” Hicks recalled, adding

We were running up and down with our response truck putting out all these little fires.”

Hicks credited Gibraltar Mines who originally gave the department $10,000 in seed money which has

allowed them to get two trucks on the road and put 14 volunteers through some training.

They’ve also fully relied on bottle refunds, earning $500 to $600 a month from the McLeese Lake volunteer fire department account at Amanda Enterprises in Williams Lake.

“That pays for a lot.

We used $160 on gas

HAFI Funds Home Modifications for Disabled Man When Lorie and Walter bought their home in Port Alberni 13 years ago they slowly began renovating the unfinished basement to accommodate Walter’s changing needs as his muscular dystrophy advanced.

“The basement was a black hole when we moved in,” recalled Walter. “After 12 years of skimping and saving, we made the downstairs completely wheelchair accessible, except for the bathroom. It was way too small.

I could only stand for about a minute and a half without collapsing in the shower stall and I could no longer pull myself out of the tub in the upstairs’ bathroom, even with Lorie’s help.”

Through funding from BC Housing’s Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program, Walter and Lorie were able to work with a contractor to transform the space. A wall was removed to make room for a wheelin shower with benches, grab bars were installed, and the vanity and fixtures were relocated.

“ I just slide into the shower now,” said Walter. “I feel safer and no longer dread trying to wash myself. What was previously a dangerous chore for me is now a welcome treat.”

Walter and Lorie hope to spend the rest of their lives in their home.

The HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently.

Cariboo Idols on stage at Performances in the Park Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Seven of the original 10 contestants are continuing with the Cariboo Idol contest this summer, says Cariboo Radio event organizer Robert Fry. Fry says three of the original contestants had to drop out for reasons out of their control.

The seven remaining contestants will be performing on stage at Performances in the Park (Boitanio Park) in Williams Lake Thursday evening, July 31, for the 6 p.m. concert time.

Since the Cariboo Idol contest began earlier this spring, the contestants have been performing at as many community events as they can leading up to the finals in September.

“Cariboo Idol is a program that helps mostly young people get in front of an audience and helps them grow as a performer,” Fry says.

“We try to get out to mostly fundraising events to help with the entertainment aspect.”

“This gives them six to seven chances during the program to throw themselves to the wolves.

At each event there are judges that watch and listen to the idols and keep tabs on their progress.”

Fry says all of the Idol contestants are permitted to have accompaniment or back tracks while performing, but this year most of them are playing an instrument themselves.

Cariboo Idol wraps up every year at the South Cariboo Community Fall Fair in September at the South Cariboo Recreation Centre.

Thanks to local sponsors, he says all of the contestants this year will have a chance to record at the New Age Studio to create a couple songs and a video clip.

This year he says all of the contestants will receive a cash prize.

Instead of declaring a top Idol this year, he says one of the contestants will be singled out as the judges’ choice.

“The program isn’t about money at all,” Fry says.

“It’s just about community support and performing live. It’s always a pleasure to work with them and watch them grow.”

The local band Soupbone with Dean Fulton, Shane Boxeur, Joel Gyselink, and Kent Bernadet is on stage in Boitanio Park Thursday evening starting at 7 p.m. following the Cariboo Idol group.

The festival brings together the talents of people performing music, dance, and the spoken word.

Some of the participants from the Williams Lake area included Brent Morton (Drum and Bell Tower), Troy Forcier, Oren Barter, Lorne Dufour and Sage Birchwater, Thom Walker and John Kopas.

“This was the third year for Hootstock and it was a hoot,” Birchwater says. “Very intimate and grassroots with a main stage and tweener stage…”

Other groups and individual performers from around B.C. and beyond included Tamar Ilana and the

The old Bradley Creek School House is located just past Ruth Lake and was built circa 1936 by some pioneers from the community.

It closed as a school house in the late 1950s and has since been used as a community gathering place. Over the years it has heard the laughter of many children at countless Christmas, Easter and other parties.

The main site also boarders a Schoolhouse Lake Provincial Park. A trail leads from the main site and takes 40 minutes to hike, really great swimming.

Ruth Lake Park is right down Eagle Creek road about a five minute drive.

As well Bradley Creek flows just across the road.

Cariboo Idol, Soupbone and a movie cap off July Performances in the Park Cariboo Idol contestants Alyssa Lindberg, Stephen Perry, Britta Westerager, Kira Saenger, Tyrell Norton, Tanya Guenther and Jillian Thomson, possibly with some special guests will lead off Performances in the Park tomorrow evening, says event organizer Angela Sommer.

“Cariboo Idol has been running since 2004,” Sommer says.

“It has always been about supporting community events and teamwork.”

She says Cariboo Idol co-ordinator Robert Fry finds the contest a great way to build confidence in young people through music and song.

The second act will feature the popular local funk powered blues/rock band Soupbone.

Just take some crazy Texas-style blues guitar — mix with some smooth soul and R&B and add to that the funkiest rhythm section this side of Motown, strong vocal performances, great song writing and a bunch of fun and you’ve got Soupbone.

The current Soupbone lineup of Dean Fulton (keys and lead vocals), Shane Boxeur (bass, vocals), Joel Gyselink (guitar, vocals) and Kent Bernadet (drums) are putting the finishing touches on the second Soupbone album slated for

Local youth fiddlers take the stage for a community concert during the Bella Coola Music Festival July 19-20.

Bella Coola Music Festival rocks the valley Evangeline Hanuse Special to Tribune/Advisor The rain did little to dampen the spirits of attendees at the 15th Annual Bella Coola Music Festival.

On July 19 and 20, a diverse and talented lineup of artists performed against the striking backdrop of billowing clouds and soaring mountains.

The songs of the Nuxalkmc singers and drummers echoed through the crowd on Saturday afternoon, welcoming them to the Valley.

Master of ceremonies Al Simmons kept children and adults alike entertained with his bag of tricks and peculiar gadgets while comedic MC Howie Miller amused the audience with his wit and irony.

Local favourites AKA took the stage as well as the talented duo Rollah and Laina.

For the first time, the Music Festival was broadcast live on Nuxalk Radio 91.1 FM and the sounds of the festival could be heard through the valley.

It was an exciting collaboration for both parties and they plan to repeat it every year from now on.

Don Amero, a Métis artist from Winnipeg impressed the audience with his soulful yet upbeat musical style.

While singing ‘Turn These Grey Skies Blue’ the sun literally broke through the clouds providing relief from the downpour.

His message of inspiring his listeners to do well in life and follow one’s own path comes from his ability to thrive despite seeing the struggle of those around him.

With four albums released, including Heart On My Sleeve, The Long Way Home, Deepening and

Change Your Life, Amero has been touring across Canada for the past six years. The success of his career has earned him numerous awards, including Aboriginal Songwriter and Male Artist of

the Year at the 2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards and Male Entertainer of the Year at the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Awards.

The accomplishments Amero has

earned are credited to his ability to stay focused on the bigger picture.

In the future he hopes to mentor other up and coming artists.

On Saturday evening 54-40 returned to headline the music festival and had the crowd dancing the night away.

Such hits as She La and Ocean Pearl were performed, radiating energy throughout the crowd.

After hitting the 30-

year mark of writing music and performing together, the group shows little sign of slowing down.

Several other bands were obvious hits with the crowd, including the incredibly energetic Shred Kelly, who entertained the audience with their upbeat banjo tunes and tales of their misadventures down at the estuary.

Kobo Town delighted the audience with their beautiful accents and sunny demeanours. During their last set they ventured right into the crowd to play and sing along to an audience who gladly

surged forward to meet them.

The unique sounds of Petunia and the Vipers captivated the crowd and left them with an appreciation for the variety of genres the festival works hard to present.

With a style that includes old-time country, yodeling, and rock, Petunia has an indescribable voice and an aura that leaves the audience curious for more.

As always, the rockstar of the North Rachelle Van Zanten was a hit with the crowd.

With her down to earth attitude and ability to relate directly to people, Van Zanten delivered a dynamic performance that brought the audience to their feet.

The Fugitives had the honour of closing the show on Sunday evening and they delivered a stellar performance that included comedy, a little political humour, and a lot of dancing.

MC Howie Miller, who is now famous in Bella Coola for his ability to handle a dozen rowdy kids, led the finale with a pretty awesome rendition of ‘Stand By Me.’ With the rugged beauty the Valley has to offer and the friendliness of the “Bella Coola wave” when driving the Highway 20, guests and performers were captivated by the experience.

Organizers, volunteers and vendors were ecstatic with successful music festival, and surely many more to come. NP104-728

the 5.7L Hemi V8 with 360hp, moving all that power to four wheels through an 8-speed automatic. City fuel economy can be frightening but I was surprised at how good this truck is, even when taking advantage of the new 120 km/h speed limit on the Coquihalla highway. The Durango put in a solid 11.8 L/100km, with more than 900 km driven. Keep in mind I didn’t soft foot my way to or from Kelowna. I did notice that the fuel economy improved vastly the closer I stayed to 100 km/h.

The handling is a bit top-heavy in the corners, especially at higher speeds, but after some initial body roll, the Durango is very stable. One notable feature is the automatic fantastic adaptive cruise control, making the ride very enjoyable.

Verdict If you drive in the city, the base 3.6L V6 engine might be a better choice based on fuel consumption but, if you drive a lot on the highway or tow a boat (3,265 kg towing capacity), the

Hemi is the right choice. Power was always there to pass and pull up a hill and the fuel economy can be good if the driver watches their speed. The V8 has the ability to switch off four of the eight cylinders when the truck is under light load and accessing this as often as possible makes a big difference.

Another thing to consider is price: the Durango is not inexpensive, starting at $39,995 for the V6 and running up to $52,495 for the top Citadel V8.

Trucking in style through the big wide open

By Zack Spencer

My last adventure was from Vancouver to Kelowna to visit some friends and hang by the lake, get a bit of tubing time behind our gracious host’s boat and take full advantage of some BC wine.

The wonderful thing about my job is that I get to hand pick the vehicle for heading out on the highway and I always like something roomy and powerful with cars German often on the top of my list. Instead of an Audi A7 diesel, this time around I selected the full-size truck-based Durango SUV from Dodge and surprisingly it does have some German roots.

‘‘

City fuel economy can be frightening but I was surprised at how good this truck is, even when taking advantage of the new 120 km/h speed limit on the Coquihalla highway..

Zack Spencer

Looks My family and I are no strangers to the latest Durango; we had the very same grey Citadel version over the Christmas break last year. Same thing, I wanted something big to move people around over the holi-

days. That stretch was mostly city driving, this time it was wideopen road. What many people might not realize is the basis of the Durango was developed by Mercedes-Benz for its GL-Class vehicle and Dodge in turn took that same platform and made it into the Durango. My two boys, Jack,12, and Charlie, nine, love the big doors, the easy to access back seat and were surprised at how huge the cargo area is when the third row of seats is folded flat. My youngest Charlie helped me load and unload and he noticed the low power lift gate switch that shorter people can access easily.

Inside Any time you get four

people in a car for over four hours the high and low points of the interior design bubble to the surface.

My wife instantly loved the two-tone black and beige leather seats that are heated, and more importantly, cooled for hot summer days. She also appreciated the big 8.4-inch uConnect screen that is only offered on this top Citadel trim, the lower trimmed cars get a 5-inch unit. The boys in the back noticed that the seats recline for more comfort and legroom is massive.

On the way out of Vancouver Charlie instantly fell asleep and didn’t wake up until Chilliwack for a Tim Horton’s break, so the seats must be comfy. Jack on the other hand spent the better part of the trip playing on his iPhone but the Citadel is equipped with flip-up screens for gaming consoles and DVD movies.

Drive My seat was a good spot to take stock of a few things, primarily fuel economy. This is a big rig and was equipped with the 5.7L Hemi V8 with 360hp, moving all

The Dodge Durango

that power to four wheels through an 8-speed automatic.

City fuel economy can be frightening but I was surprised at how good this truck is, even when taking advantage of the new 120 km/h speed limit on the Coquihalla highway.

The Durango put in a solid 11.8 L/100km, with more than 900 km driven. Keep in mind I didn’t soft foot may way to or from Kelowna. I did notice that the fuel economy improved vastly the closer I stayed to 100 km/h. The handling is a bit top-heavy in the corners, especially at higher speeds but after some initial body

roll, the Durango is very stable. One notable feature is the automatic fantastic adaptive cruise control, making the ride very enjoyable.

Verdict If you drive in the city, the base 3.6L V6 engine might be a better choice based on fuel consumption but if you drive a lot on the highway or tow a boat (3,265 kg towing capacity), the Hemi is the right choice.

Power was always there to pass and pull up a hill and the fuel economy can be good if the driver watches their speed. The V8 has the ability to switch off four of the

eight cylinders when the truck is under light load and accessing this as often as possible makes a big difference. Another thing to consider is price, the Durango is not inexpensive, starting at $39,995 for the V6 and running up to $52,495 for the top Citadel V8. My family loved spending time in the Durango, we all had a lot of space and the trip was effortless. Our next adventure is to Portland Oregon in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel, I can’t wait to see how that new truck compares. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

Late goal caps Storm title run Sean Glanville Staff Writer A storm was brewing up at the Esler soccer fields Saturday as the last place WL Storm completed their remarkable run to the Williams Lake Men’s Soccer League playoff crown Saturday.

After pulling off a pair of upsets last week over Windsor Plywood and Celtic Engineering the Storm capped off their season in dramatic fashion as striker Darko Ognjanov scored on a header from a corner kick in the 89th minute to give his side a 2-1 victory over Williams Lake FC. “They should make a Disney movie about us,” joked Storm defender Duncan Peeman, referencing his team’s stunning turnaround.

The Storm, also known as the United Nations, featured players from all over the world which gave the league a welcomed infusion of football culture.

Storm featured players born in Macedonia, South Africa, Nigeria, Germany, Mexico, Chile, Federated States of Micronesia, Netherlands as well as having First Nations, French Canadians and players with Indian, Jamaican and British descent.

“It was very cool that this summer we had the World Cup and I was able to play with guys from all over the world,” said Storm defender Ken MacInnis. “It truly

WLFC player Luke Moger dribbles the ball while three Storm defenders circle him, including Michael Mthandazo (left to right), Darko Ognjanov and Basil Robbins. Moger’s WLFC dropped a 2-1 decision in the Williams Lake Men’s Soccer League playoff final Saturday as Ognjanov scored the winning goal with only two minutes left. is the world’s game and soccer is the one common language everybody knows.”

The scoring opened in the 20th minute as Storm talisman Brandon ‘Magician’ Phillips collected the rebound off an Ognjanov shot that rattled off the crossbar, and after WLFC netminder

United Floors Nick Iachetta (left) battles for the ball with Celtic Engineering’s Kevin Woodward in Saturday’s Consolation Final. Iachetta scored twice to lead United Floors to a 5-1 win.

Randy Riplinger made the initial save Phillips got a second crack and popped the ball in the net to make it 1-0.

Storm then suffered a setback as playoff leading scorer Pablo ‘El Pibe’ Aguero suffered an ankle injury and was forced to watch from the sidelines.

WLFC rallied to tie the game early in the second half as Rajan Mangat slammed the ball into the roof of the goal from a corner kick to make it 1-1.

It was a defensive battle which saw very few quality chances to score but plenty of strong defending on both sides.

Luke Moger had the best chance to put WLFC ahead as he rounded Storm goalkeeper Travis Nystoruk but MacInnis was able to get back in time to block Moger’s shot from an acute angle off the goal-line. The game looked destined for overtime until Ogdjanov’s header sealed the win.

“Our team really came together at the end of the season and there were times when we were under pressure but we managed to keep calm,” said MacInnis.

“Grant (Gustafson) said at the awards how the social part of the sport is so important and our team had great chemistry and got along really well.”

Storm goalkeeper Nystoruk had another solid game and was named Playoff MVP. Nystoruk only surrendered two goals in three playoff contests to earn the

award. Nystoruk also generously donated his share of the 50/50 winnings to a fundraiser for soccer player Robin Dieck who is recovering from a motorcycle accident.

Members of the winning Storm team that played in the final included Marc-Antoine Richer, Viktor Stamenov, Ognjanov, Nystoruk, Phillips, Peeman, Aguero, Michael Mthandazo, Bal Janda, Nick Bergeron, Gerrardo Cibrian, and Basil Robbins.

In the Consolation Final United Floors scored five unanswered second half goals to down Celtic Engineering 5-1. Celtic took an early lead through Justin Hansen to make it 1-0 heading into half time. Nick Iachetta led United’s attack scoring a pair of goals.

Following the contest the league awards were handed out.

The winners were: Top Goalkeeper – Curt Levens (United), Top Defender – Mike Holmes (Celtic), Top Midfielder – Luke Moger (WLFC), Top Forward – Kolby Taylor (WLFC), League MVP – Luke Moger (WLFC), Most Sportsmanlike Player – Ethan Patey (Celtic), Best Oldtimer – Kevin Woodward (Celtic), Leading Scorer – Nathan Zurak (Windsor Plywood), League Champion - Celtic Engineering, Playoff Champion – Storm, Whiner of the Year - George Fraser (WLFC) and Russell Lund Memorial Trophy - Kevin Ernst (Windsor).

Peewee barrel racer, Kaitlyn Lulua of Williams Lake tugs lightly on her reins, encouraging her barrel horse to make the proper turn as the duo rounds barrel number two in the cloverleaf pattern at the Esk’et (Alkali) Rodeo on Sunday afternoon. It’s no surprise that this little cowgirl likes to go fast, she was likely born with ‘speed’ in her genes; her father Jimmy Lulua is the former champion mountain racer (Williams Lake, Nemaiah Valley and Redstone (Tsi Del Del) . The go-fast without-fear gene comes from both sides as Kaitlyn’s mother June (nee-Cahoose) Lulua also appears to have no fearof-flying. She was one of the competitors (and a winner) in the Wild Cowgirl Race, a new event featured at last months’ Williams Lake Stampede. Kaitlyn’s run-time on Sunday at Esk’et was 17.84 seconds which was good enough for third place and a cheque in the Peewee barrel race division.

Windsor wins ladies soccer title Sean Glanville Staff Writer The Williams Lake Ladies Soccer League final featured a battle between the top two teams in the regular season.

The league champion U-17 Rep Team took on runners up Windsor Plywood for the playoff championship Saturday at the Esler fields.

Windsor Plywood were the better team on the day as they raced out to an early lead and never looked back on their way to a 6-1 win.

Both teams went into the contest short players with Windsor fielding 10 and the U-17s nine, leaving both teams to deal with no substitutes and the mid-day heat.

“It was a tough game for both teams being short players and it was pretty hot out.

I think them (U-17s) having only nine really affected how they normally play,” said Windsor midfielder Katie McMahen.

“We (Windsor) were expecting a close game because we were pretty even with the U-17s during the season.”

McMahen’s credits much of Windsor’s success to the improvement of the team over the course of the year in particular the new players.

“Our team kept improving and we played really well in the final.

Our new players really improved a lot over the course of the season,” said McMahen.

Ritter competes in debut fitness show her first-ever fitness competition.

Ritter participated in the World Beauty Fitness & Fashion Inc. fitness and fashion weekend

Sean Glanville Staff Writer Williams Lake’s Aliesha Ritter had a successful debut in

at the River Rock Resort and Casino Saturday.

“This was my first ever fitness competition and it’s always been something I’ve wanted to do. I love fitness and working out,” said Ritter.

Ritter finished in the top five in her category of Fit Diva Bikini which included both a bikini round and a costume round.

More than 100 competitors took part in the event and Ritter plans to return in 2015.

“I hope to compete again next year at the event and keep improving. I’m undecided if I will do an-

If you want a real world tough ATV with an attractive price tag, look no further than the Bruin 350. Conceived as a versatile, value-oriented ATV that never shied away from hard work, the Bruin has been a mainstay in the Yamaha line - and with satisfied customers - for years.

other competition in between but, I’ll be taking a little break for now,” said Ritter.

Ritter trained hard for 14 weeks prior to the competition working out six days a week at Concrete Fitness.

“The dieting routine is really intense and includes a lot of fasting and cutting out carbs and salt loading which can be really tough on the body.”

Ritter, who works as a practical nurse at retirement concepts, found out she was registered in the wrong category just a week before the competition and the pressure was on when she found out

she had to come up with an outfit for the costume round.

“The fairy costume I made myself and we only had a few days to make it, but we got a lot of compliments on it — it all worked out,” smiled Ritter.

Ritter credits boyfriend Tyler Bate for not only helping train her but for his support over the past couple months. She also thanks Concrete Fitness owners Marcus and Crystal Hoelzler, Tina Campbell for helping her with her poses and all her friends and family who made the trip to Richmond to watch her competition.

Aliesha Ritter poses in the bikini round of her fitness competition at the River Rock

2014 Yamaha Bolt R - Spec

You would think that launching the Grizzly 550 would have upstaged Canada’s own, Kodiak 450. Not so. In fact, the Kodiak 450 is still one of Canada’s most sought after ATV’s. With the addition of power-steering in 2011, this model continues to be the ATV of choice for riders who want bulletproof reliability and go anywhere capability wrapped in an affordable package.

Year in and year out, the Grizzly legend grows. Now a host of changes see the Grizzly with more power, improved ride comfort and 30% better gas mileage. If you’re looking for a big-bore ATV that’s lean, mean and real world tough, there’s none better than the tried and true Grizzly 700.

There’s not much that can stop a Viking. Ours is no different.

An all-new chassis, comfortable 3-person seating, Electric Power Steering, and an engine with more power, more top speed and the reliability you expect from Yamaha.

Combine it all with the best ergonomics and suspension in the business for the most capable side by side we’ve ever released. Always wanted to go where few have been? Go there, with the new Viking.

A new trend is emerging in the motorcycle world, with a “back to basics” approach. Designers and custom builders are stepping back to a time when the mechanical beauty of a motorcycle was highlighted in its styling. The Bolt R-Spec’s simple styling, compact layout, 942cc V-Twin power and natural riding position combine to offer an incredibly fun riding experience.

Jefferson, Ray With heavy hearts the family announces the passing of Ray at the age of 86, on July 27, 2014.

Ray was born in 1927 and raised in Victoria, B.C. and in Victoria was where he started his career in the B.C. Forest Service as a mechanical engineering technologist.

In 1973 Ray, his wife Shirley, and his young family transferred to the growing young city of Williams Lake, and was responsible for supervising the construction of the many new Forest Service buildings and facilities in the Cariboo.

Ray retired from the Forest Service in the early 1980’s, and because of his love of boating, he and Shirley embarked on many, many adventures with their sailboat, that took them up and down the coast of B.C., Alaska, the Great Lakes in Ontario, down the Mississippi, Florida and the Bahamas.

We will miss his wit, energy, wise words, and he was always there to lend a hand for friends and family. He leaves his wife of 59 years Shirley; daughter Donna Williams (Jim Siwek); grandchildren: Calvin Williams, Lindsey Martens, Jesse Siwek, Sierra Siwek and great grandchild Silas. Ray was predeceased by his son David.

At Ray’s request there will be no service. The family invites friends and family to an open house tea, Saturday, August 2nd at Ray’s 150 Mile home, between 1-4 pm.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, or the charity of your choice.

We hope you are back at the helm “Pup�, sailing across that great starry universe!
