The issue of youth gangs and violence will be discussed at an open meeting Thursday, June 18 in Williams Lake. Pat and Erin Graham, who run Guardian Youth at Risk and Family Services in the lakecity, have organized the meeting. “We called a meeting last month with Shannon StumpWilliam who runs Changing Directions in Support of Aboriginal Youth and we invited city council, the RCMP, the mayor, the legal system, social workers and the general public,” Pat said. “We hope this second meeting will produce more answers on how to deal with gang problems in Williams Lake.” Through their business, the Grahams work on the rehabilitation of gang members, street kids or foster kids, any children in need of having a life change, Pat said, noting he was drawn to work with youth because of his own background. “I’m an ex gang banger myself,” he said.

Outgoing Stampede Queen Michelle Ball crowned her successor, Cheyleigh Sand, at the coronation held Saturday at the Lake City Secondary School Williams Lake Campus.
