Stock from C+ Rodeos arrives at the Stampede Grounds Thursday afternoon as organizers get set to kick off the 89th annual Williams Lake Stampede this weekend. Top cowboys and cowgirls are coming from across North America to compete in the Canadian Pro Rodeo.

Hot weekend ahead for 89th Stampede The weather’s going to be hot but the rodeo action is going to be hotter at the 89th annual Williams Lake Stampede.

Stampede President Fred Thomas said there’s a stacked lineup front to back for this year’s rodeo.

“We’ve got the top professional athletes coming from across North America and they’re going to put on a great show,” Thomas said Thursday of the some 400 contestants expected over the five rodeo performances.

Man badly injured in drive-thru incident Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A 61-year-old Williams Lake man is in serious condition following a collision Wednesday.

The RCMP said a man parked his 2007 Silver Toyota Tacoma pickup in his driveway on Lakeview Crescent near the intersection on Broadway Avenue South.

As he exited the driver’s seat, the truck started to roll back out of the driveway. According to police, the man attempted to jump back in the driver’s seat, but fell to the ground, was pulled under the truck and run

over by the unmanned vehicle.

The truck continued rolling, striking a parked unoccupied car and continued on until it went over the retaining wall in the McDonald’s parking lot where it came to rest on the roof of an occupied red Ford 500. The couple in the Ford suffered minor injuries.

When a McDonald’s manager tried to console the truck owner’s dog, who was in the truck, the dog bit her hand. However, as emergency crews attended the scene, the manager was seen making sure the dog was OK before returning inside to tend to her hand.

Emergency services respond to a motor vehicle incident during the noon hour Wednesday at McDonald’s Restaurant, after a truck rolled down the hill and into the drive through, hitting two other vehicles.

Bear predation of cattle increasing in region Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The amount of cattle being killed by bears in the Cariboo region is higher than it has been in four years, the Conservation Officer Service says.

“We’ve done about

76 verifications with producers who have lost cattle to predators and around 37 to 40 per cent of those are from bear attacks,” said Darrell Ashworth of the COS in Williams Lake.

“Most of the cattle lost have been calves that

are vulnerable for the first couple months of life.”

“It’s an interesting trend. My suspicion is because we’ve had such an early spring this year and everything is two to three weeks ahead of schedule and the bears have come out earlier.”

In June, bears are

breeding so they are very mobile, he added.

“They breed, have a delayed gestation of about eight months and have babies in February.”

Another five to 10 per cent of the verified kills have been attributed to

Sunburns can be painful and damaging to the skin in the long term.

A few tips on treating a sunburn: Move to a cool place; have a cool shower then apply a moisturizing cream and drink plenty of water. You can take an age-appropriate dose of ibuprofen to help with the inflammation and pain. Best way to prevent a sunburn: use a good sunscreen and avoid those hot times of day from 11am to 4pm.

Just as water under too much pressure can damage a hose, if our blood pressure gets too high, it can damage the “hoses” carrying the blood around our bodies. Blood pressure in men starts to rise around the age of 45 and if left untreated can cause heart attack and stroke as well as cause damage to our kidneys. Men, if you haven’t had your blood pressure checked lately, get it done soon.

It’s been said that 60% of Alzheimer cases are preventable. Here are a few ways: exercise your brain and your body by learning another language, challenge your body by using the opposite hand for teeth or hair brushing. Get a good night’s sleep every night and keep your levels of stress to a minimum. Also, keep socially stimulated and involved in your community.

The allergy season is here again. If you are an allergysufferer, we invite you to use the knowledge of our pharmacist staff to help you choose an antihistamine that is appropriate for your medical condition and relieve the allergies as well. This is especially important if you are a senior. Use our knowledge to increase your knowledge about the medications you use.

coyotes and the rest by wolves, who are still the predominant predator for livestock in the region, he said.

Big Lake has been hit hard again this year with wolf attacks and there has been a bit of an increase in the Horsefly

area as well.

“Sixty per cent of our complaints come from west of the Fraser River,” Ashworth said.

Ranchers are also contending with a grasshopper problem this year, attributed to a dry spring.

Tentative Highway 97 upgrade agreement reached with WLIB Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Highway 97 improvements between Sugar Cane and Lexington Road are one step closer after the B.C. Government and Williams Lake Indian Band reached a tentative agreement Wednesday.

“With the support of the WLIB we are very hopeful that construction will begin very shortly and should be completed by early 2017,” Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Todd Stone said as he announced the tentative agreement at Coyote Rock Golf Course Thursday.

The $47-million project will see six kilometres of highway four-laned, as well as improved turning and deceleration lanes, including a new

Willie Sellars join Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Todd Stone as he announces a tenative agreement with WLIB for Highway 97. on-reserve frontage road to link the band’s new development lands to the highway.

“The Cariboo Connector is an absolutely essential corridor for trade and transportation and carries 2.3 million

cars and trucks annually,” Stone said.

WLIB Indian Band Chief Ann Louie credited the band’s economic development team for its hard work to negotiate the project and thanked the ministry of transpor-

tation team for its willingness to work with the band.

“This project is a massive undertaking for our community in terms of employment, opportunities and ongoing economic development,”

Louie said. “I want to acknowledge Lake Excavating for their willingness to create a partnership with the WLIB.” Louie also thanked Stone and the province for staying engaged with the band during what has been a difficult process at times.

Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett said she had the pleasure of becoming an ally of Louie’s during the negotiations.

“It will enhance not just Williams Lake Indian Band’s economy but all of the region,” Barnett added.

WLIB councillor Willie Sellars described the project as another example of synergy and collaboration.

“We are super, super excited, ramped up and ready to go,” he smiled.

Wildwood school slated for closure Wildwood Elementary school was officially closed for good Tuesday.

After discussing the mould/flood issues at the school at length, School District 27 trustees agreed to break protocol and give three readings to the closure bylaw so that parents would not be left in limbo over the summer.

“It is very disheartening to have to make a decision like this,” Chair Tanya Guenther said.

Costs estimated to remediate the mould/flood problem or replace the school were deemed “insurmountable.”

The trustees also redesignated the Wildwood school catchment area to become part of the Marie Sharpe elementary catchment area, where students have been attending classes as a “schoolwithin a

school” since the school was evacuated in April.

The trustees also made special arrangements to allow parents of Wildwood students to choose a different school from Marie Sharpe for their children and allocated up to $50,000 to set up a faster bus route to city schools from the northern reaches of the district around McLeese Lake.

Tsilhqot’in celebrate rights and title anniversary

sponsored by:

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Against the backdrop of Farwell Canyon and the Chilcotin River, First Nations gathered Wednesday to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Supreme Court of Canada decision to declare full Aboriginal title to approximately 1,900 kilometres of land to the Tsilhqot’in.

Organizers of the event chose Farwell Canyon because when the decision came down on the morning of June 26, 2014 many people who were participating in the annual Xeni Gwet’in Wagon Ride to the Williams Lake Stampede were camped at that spot.

Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William said the youth who were on the wagon trip last year and again this year will remember witnessing the reaction of the elders and adults when they realized they’d won.

“There are a lot of our youth here and they will remember this,”

Certainty in an Uncertain World

Xeni Gwet’in Chief Roger William speaks during a celebration marking the one-year anniversary of the Tsilhqot’in title decision.

William said. “We First Nations know what Aboriginal Rights and Title are but it’s the government that need to recognize it.”

Chief Joe Alphonse described the day as one of renewed hope.

“The decision has given us an opportunity to push the reset button and fix our relationships with the provincial and federal governments,” Alphonse said.

He described the last year as a whirlwind because it put the Tsilhqot’in on the map.

“First Nations across Canada opened their doors to us,” he said.

“Indigenous people in Belize were even celebrating for us.”

Yunesit’in Chief Russell Myers Ross recalled the excitement and shock from all parties when the Supreme Court decision was announced.

“Even though a year has passed, there are still outstanding issues,” Myers Ross said. “Xeni Gwet’in got title but there is still the rest of the Tsilhqot’in territory that needs to be reconciled. We as people need to express our history and explain where we want to go.”

B.C.’s Aboriginal Relations Minister John Rustad said he was excited to be at a time in history when First Nations and the government are exploring

what peace can look like.

“I know there’s been conflict for a long period of time,” Rustad said. “It culminated in this court case. The province fought against the Tsilhqot’in, but you won it. The province recognizes the win and celebrates it.”

Rustad said the government has heard concerns from First Nations about education, children and families, wildlife management, fish habitat and the justice system.

“These are the types

of things we are negotiating,” Rustad said.

“We as a non-Aboriginal people came in and took away that management.”

He said he is hopeful negotiations can be done in three to five years and not take generations.

“It is fragile and won’t be easy because there is 150-years plus of history.” ?Esdilagh Chief Bernie Mack said the challenge for the Tsilhqot’in is to let the decision become the game changer everyone else says it is.

“I see a day down the future where we as Tsilhqo’tin will be owning and running a big company,” Mack said.

As the celebration came to a close William said many Tsilhqot’in people are strong and thriving, know the language, go out onto the land, have university degrees and jobs, but there are those who are struggling.

“There’s alcohol, drugs and gangs, but it’s within us to get the resources to be able to deal with what is affecting us,” he added.

Tough Enough to Wear Pink On Sunday, rodeo fans have a chance to take in the action while also supporting a good cause during Tough Enough to Wear Pink.

One dollar from every rodeo ticket sold Sunday will go to the cancer fundraiser, as will donations given for pink ribbons and wrist bands.

Stampede director Sherry Bullock said this year’s earnings will be given to two very worthy causes: Cops for Cancer and to local volunteer Jim Byer and his wife, Jean.

Jim, who has been a Stampede volunteer since 1996, director from 2000 to 2010 and office administrator since 2011, has had two bouts with cancer in the past six months. Money raised will go toward his travel expenses.

“It’s been overwhelming to know that we are supported so much by the community. We are very grateful, it means a lot,” Jim said Thursday as he tended to business at the Stampede Office.

Jim said he doesn’t mind talking about his cancer because, “I’m a survivor,” he said.

Jim received a lung transplant 11 years ago this Stampede weekend, keeping one of his own lungs and receiving a new one.

Since then Jim said he has monthly checkups with his doctor and that was when stomach cancer was discovered, which was surgically removed.

Then, cancer was also found in Jim’s lung.

“The cancer came as a complete surprise,” he said.

Sherry describes Jim as a fountain of knowledge when it comes to the Stampede and an all-around helpful person.

She noted treatments due to travel have been very costly for the 72 year old.

Cops for Cancer Tour De North riders from Williams Lake Constables Colby Hendrickson, Andrew Waters and Daniel Cohen will be at the rodeo Sunday dressed in pink, and selling 50/50 tickets.

Donations for Cops for Cancer can also be made at convio. cancer.calgoto/williamslake.

Stampede volunteers Sherry Bullock and Jim Byer make some of the final preparations Thursday just prior to this year’s Williams Lake Stampede. Byer, a longtime volunteer for the Williams Lake Stampede Association, is one of the recipients of this year’s Tough Enough to Wear Pink cancer fundraiser after battling two bouts of cancer during the past six months.

Show off our country heritage this weekend at Stampede The Williams Lake Stampede got underway last week with the crowning of Cheleigh Sand as this year’s Williams Lake Stampede Queen.

For me, that’s when the Stampede starts and it keeps going right through to Monday evening — a day of rest for some on Tuesday, then Canada Day celebrations at Boitanio Park.

The view from the East Coast of Canada I’ve just spent two weeks viewing events from the opposite side of Canada, in and around St. John’s Newfoundland. It’s the same country, but you wouldn’t know it sometimes.

Here on the West Coast, “kayaktivists” paddled around a Shell offshore oil drilling platform being serviced at Seattle, striking poses of resistance for the media from their petroleum-based watercraft.

Meanwhile at Bull Arm outside St. John’s, work continues on a massive “gravity-based structure” that will soon be drilling into the Hebron oilfield 350 km offshore. It will have living quarters and drill rig above and a tank with capacity for 1.2 million barrels of crude below.

Offshore oil has turned St. John’s into a boomtown. With one industrial park nearing capacity on the edge of town, a second is under construction. Locals call it “Dannyland,” after its developer, former premier Danny Williams.

St. John’s Airport is buzzing with flights back and forth to Edmonton and Fort McMurray, and crew helicopters shuttling back and forth from offshore oil rigs.

Tourism is picking up, with a new cross-Canada ad campaign and WestJet starting service to Dublin and London.

A foreign supplier won a contract for tankers to bring oil ashore. With no media-connected environmental groups to steer the subject to far-fetched disaster scenarios, debate in the Newfound-

land and Labrador legislature turned to concerns about maintaining local employment.

Outside the city, parallels with B.C. become evident. Tiny towns struggle to hang on as young people choose opportunity over isolation, and the only expansion is at church graveyards. While cities struggle with high housing and recreational property costs, homes in remote areas are going for a song.

Up north in Labrador, a hydroelectric dam at Muskrat Falls is under construction. Its $8 billion estimated price tag is in the same range as BC Hydro’s Site C project on the Peace River, which will part a sea of protesters and lawyers and move ahead this summer. Nalcor Energy, Newfoundland’s electrical utility, is dipping into contingencies in an effort to keep it on time and on budget.

Here on the Left Coast, enviros and the Green Party rail against hydro as well as oil and gas, and

of course you can’t even mention nuclear. Climate activism proceeds in a logical vacuum in these parts, as it often does in Europe.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper signed on to a farcical “carbon free in 85 years” pledge at the G7 meeting in Germany. But hey, it’s an election year, not a time for serious discussion of issues.

Imperial Oil’s Kearl oilsands mine at Fort McMurray has started production from its $9 billion second phase, with the help of many Newfoundlanders. Production continues to grow, heavy oil prices have surged with paving sea-

son, and large-scale liquefied natural gas export plans begin to take shape in B.C. With the legislature about to be recalled to endorse the Petronasled LNG export project, Premier Christy Clark has assembled a climate action team with representatives from industry, First Nations, local governments and a couple of professional protesters for good measure.

They have an absurdly short deadline to recommend changes to B.C.’s token carbon tax, as gasoline consumption returns to pretax levels despite continued high

pump prices.

In St. John’s, another long, cold winter has finally loosened its grip after piling snow to doorknob levels. Every street in sight is being patched and repainted.

The debate about new energy supplies has a more serious tone in Newfoundland. The last elected premier, Kathy Dunderdale, lost her job in the wake of winter power blackouts.

Good idea, wrong location to burn railroad ties For those who attended the recent information session hosted

by Atlantic Power Corporation on increasing the use of old creosoted railroad ties in the Williams Lake Power Plant (WLPP), also known as the co-gen plant, how many noticed the poster and fact sheet that showed the proposed percentage of ties used in the plant could reach 50 per cent of the fibre mix?

Any mix approaching these high percentages would mean a massive transport of ties (and possibly other related and dangerous products) into our community.

Current science indicates that disposal of creosoted railroad ties is least polluting when burned in a hot, contained environment like the WLPP. The main concern is where

Forest Ink Jim Hilton such a plant should be located. In my opinion these kinds of plants should be built well away from any populated areas and their critical water sources.

Operations using a large percentage of treated feedstock could eventually become the repository for a wide variety of dangerous products.

Also consider the human tendency for monitoring and quality control to become lax as time goes on and equipment to become less efficient and properly

maintained.

Hence, the need for a considerable buffer from populated areas.

With the ongoing discussions about the Mount Polley mine breach, the public is going to be sceptical about industry claims about not creating adverse health, safety and environmental impacts on the community.

A much smaller proposal to burn railroad ties in Kamloops was rejected because of potential health concerns.

This proposal was to use the latest technology and was small in comparison (two one-megawatt plants compared to the 66 megawatt plant here).

Local politicians and residents should be concerned about Williams Lake becoming the railroad tie burning capital of the province or of western Canada. More

thought needs to go into the alternate use of rail ties and where a processing plant should be located which would burn a high percentage of rejected ties.

An anticipated short fall of sawlogs caused by the mountain pine beetle epidemic could come within the next five to 10 years and would mean a reduction of lumber production, as well as the resultant residual material (chips, sawdust, bark, etc.) currently used by the WLPP and pellet plant.

In my opinion the anticipated fibre shortfall for the cogeneration plant in Williams Lake and possibly the pellet plant could be met by using the residual fibre left on many logging sites.

The majority of the cull piles (cull logs, tops, branches, etc.) following logging have been traditionally burned on site because

this material was considered too expensive compared to the relatively cheap residual fibre coming from the lumber mills.

I think Atlantic Power Corporation has a responsibility to the people of Williams Lake and surrounding communities to look at all fibre options to meet the anticipated shortfall, especially if it minimizes health risks and reduces local green house gas production.

All levels of government need to encourage the best use of our resources along with protecting our health and environment.

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.

Saturday parking alternatives suggested People coming downtown to watch the Rotary Daybreak Stampede Parade Saturday morning should be aware that there won’t be as many parking spaces available in Boitanio Mall this year as there has been in other years.

Boitanio Mall manager Jeanette Tuerlings says the mall parkade is currently closed to all traffic and there won’t be any parking behind the mall due to construction happening in that space.

There are several alternative locations suggested for people to explore, including parking along Carson Drive and in the Lake City Secondary Williams Lake Campus parking lot.

There is also parking in the Oliver Street Bar and Grill parking lot and the vacant lot adjacent to this site as well as across the street on Mackenzie Avenue with two big parking lots on either side of

the Station House Gallery. The Stampede Grounds also provide lots of paid parking opportunity.

The Sacred Heart Church upper parking lot and school parking lot will also be available.

Volunteers will be manning the barricades set up around the marshalling areas and parade route.

People will only be able to turn right at the

bottom of Carson as the front and back lots at the Cariboo Memorial Complex will be the staging areas for the horse entries.

First, Second, Third, and Fourth Avenues will also be blocked off for parade marshalling between Comer Street and Proctor Avenue for parade entry marshalling and also at key points along the parade route which includes Fourth Avenue,

Borland Avenue to Eighth Avenue, Oliver Street to First Avenue and up First Avenue to the exit point at Comer Street.

“The parade is a totally volunteer run event so please be respectful of the volunteers providing direction at the barricades,” asks Daybreak Rotary parade committee member Lori Macala.

Oliver Street will continue to be blocked

off between Mackenzie Avenue and Fourth Avenue for the annual Stampede Street Party as well as portions of some side streets inbetween.

First Avenue South between Oliver and Yorston will feature children’s activities.

Second Avenue North between Oliver and Borland will feature the Lakers Club car show.

There will also be an entertainment stage at Second Avenue South blocking the exit to the Shoppers Drug Mart mall but leaving the southern entrance open.

Fourth Avenue South to halfway down the block will also be blocked off for activities as well as the Mart Street entrance to Oliver Street by city hall.

July 3 – 13 CENTRAL CARIBOO LANDFILL TRANSFER STATION BYLAW NO. 4950 The Cariboo Regional District (CRD) is advising residents that starting on July 4, 2015 a landfill ban on recyclables will come into effect. Any load of waste (garbage, wood, or demolition and construction) containing more than 10 per cent by volume of recyclables will be charged the greater of a $25 fine, or $200 per tonne as per the new bylaw.

“Recyclables” include, but are not limited to, deposit beverage containers, pharmaceuticals, empty oil containers, oil filters, paints, lead-acid batteries, antifreeze, antifreeze containers, electronics and electrical products including

batteries and accessories, passenger and light truck tires, large and small appliances, scrap metal, corrugated cardboard, packaging and printed paper (household recyclables). If you g e n e ra t e a ny o f t h e s e recyclables you will need to develop alternate disposal methods to ensure they are being recycled. All listed materials can be recycled at various locations in Williams Lake. Household recyclables are accepted at various CRD Transfer Station recycling depots, visit rcbc.bc.ca or call 1-800-667-4321 to find dropoff locations for all other materials.

ELITE YOUTH TOURNAMENTS Futures (U19) Showcase (16U)

Bylaw 4950 has been established, and will be enforced, to protect our environment and manage tax dollars responsibly. Diverting recyclables from the landfill conserves our landfill space; keeps harmful substances out of our environment; reduces methane gas p ro d u c t i o n ; a n d c o n s e r ve s resources.

Did you know that when you purchase recyclables you also pay for the cost of recycling them? If the recyclables end up in the garbage, you as taxpayers pay again to landfill them.

Emery said the course is about much more than learning to control your temper, adding it teaches core lessons you can use in your everyday life: your job, social life and your family.

Emery was certified as a Life Skills coach in Williams Lake under the New Start program, and several of his workshops were sponsored by Canadian Mental Health, and facilitated by Cariboo Memorial Hospital, the Williams Lake Indian Band and others.

shops would help fill those gaps, and started rebuilding them with new lesson plans,” he said. “My goal is to make these skills available to anybody who wants them, and with these courses, you don’t have to be referred, or belong to a group to have access.”

Life Skills coaches can work with any kind of interpersonal relationships through the lesson plans, according to Emery. “We can address things like dating, working with the elderly, job skills, communication, problem solving and much more — it’s very versatile. My two programs, Managing Anger and Assertive Communication in a New World, deal with certain specific areas, but there are many more. We can tailor a program to meet any need,” he said.

“The programs are meant to push us to the limits of our selfawareness and beyond.

It takes us to those dark and dusty corners where we become aware of things that control us. The programs are meant to help us become aware of those things and by knowing what they are, we take back control.

We own our own stuff.

We learn to address our needs and the needs of others. We learn to communicate in a way that is non-threatening and develop skills that help us stand up for our rights, communicate our needs, wants and express them in ways that are more meaningful and productive.”

He said he is currently working on a new program to address career exploration for young people.

Bob: Yeah I know, I know.. I probably should have asked someone, but you know I was doing pretty good until it threw me up into the air about twenty feet. If I keep practicing though I think I can be a champion bull wrestler.

Reporter: Bull wrestling is not an event. Rodeo events are based on real ranching activities.

Williams Lake Rustlers Rugby Football Club player Jordan Pritchard looks to make his way through the Prince George Gnats’ defence during a 17-0 victory last Saturday at the Ottoman Drive rugby fields.

Rustlers shutout Gnats heading into Stampede Rugby weekend Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The Williams Lake Rustlers Rugby Football Club will rumble into this weekend’s Annual Stampede Rugby Tournament with momentum on its side.

The team asserted its dominance last Saturday during a 17-0 shutout victory over the visiting Prince George Gnats at the Ottoman Drive rugby fields.

Rustlers new head coach Braden McCallum — who moved to Williams Lake from Nova Scotia with his wife and one-year-old son last August — said he thought the effort from his players on the pitch was outstanding.

“It was a great win for us,” McCallum said.

“We’re definitely improving. And as a new coach coming in I’ve brought in some new offensive systems and a new way of playing and the guys are buying into it and slowly

Williams Lake Rustlers player James Hawes (right, carrying ball), works to stay on his feet during a Saturday win against the Prince George Gnats. starting to feel more comfortable.

“We’re getting better and better each game.”

The weekend prior Williams Lake scored a 12-8 win in Prince George over the Gnats, after dropping its first game in Terrace late May, 27-19.

To date, the Rustlers have amassed a two-win, one-loss record on the campaign.

The team has one more league game left — a home tilt with Terrace on Saturday, July 25 at the Ottoman Drive rugby fields.

As for the Stampede Rugby Tournament, McCallum said so far seven teams have registered in the men’s division.

“We’re [the Rustlers] looking to put two teams in to bring it up to eight teams,” McCallum said.

In the women’s division

eight teams will also vie for the coveted Stampede belt buckle.

Games go all day Saturday and all day Sunday, with semifinals and finals slated for Sunday afternoon.

There will be a licensed beer garden open Friday night beginning at 7 p.m.

On Saturday and Sunday the beer garden opens at 11 a.m.

Carey Price sweeps NHL awards, named MVP Netminder wins Hart, Vezina and Ted Lindsay awards Kolby Solinski Black Press Carey Price cleaned up at Wednesday night’s NHL Awards in Las Vegas, taking home hardware as the league’s player-voted MVP, its best goalie, and finally capping the hat trick with the Hart Trophy as the NHL’s most valuable player for 2015.

(Price actually received a fourth award in Nevada, sharing the William M. Jennings Trophy (for the league’s fewest goals against) with Chicago Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford.)

Price, who was born in Vancouver and raised in Anahim Lake, B.C., became the first goalie to win the Hart since Jose Theodore did it, also with the Montreal Ca-

I would like to take a moment to encourage First Nations youth...

I wasn’t discouraged.

I worked hard to get here, took advantage of every opportunity that I had and I’d really like to encourage First Nations Youth to become leaders in their communities. Be proud of your heritage.”

- Carey Price nadiens, in 2002.

The Habs finished second in the Eastern Conference and Price led the NHL with a 1.96 goals-against average and a 0.933 save percentage. He also led the NHL with 44 wins, just ahead of fellow Vezina nominee Pekka Rinne’s 41.

“Obviously, I couldn’t have done this without my teammates,” Price said after winning the Vezina, his second time on the podium Wednesday night, as the NHL’s best goaltender.

Price’s story is wellknown: faced with a 10-hour round trip commute from Anahim Lake to his home rink in Williams Lake, B.C., Price’s father Jerry bought a plane to aid in his son’s love for hockey. Price played his junior hockey with the Western Hockey League’s Tri-City Americans and was drafted fifth overall by the Canadiens in 2005, eventually winning gold with Canada’s World Junior team in 2007 and Olympic gold in Sochi, in 2014.

to be leaders in their communities.

“Be proud of your heritage, and don’t be discouraged.”

Earlier this season, Price was featured in a memorable video with a boy, Trent Leon, who flew from his hometown of Anahim Lake to Montreal to meet his idol, Price, to join the goalie on the ice in Quebec and to present him with a gift from his classmates in B.C.

Poffenroth ready to rope at Stampede Asked why he competes in rodeo, Virgil Poffenroth is quite frank.

“We are a dying breed and rodeo is one of our longest traditions,” Poffenroth said. “I’m doing my best to keep it alive.”

The 26-year-old family man is one of Canada’s young, up and comers in tiedown roping.

Born in Riske Creek just west of Williams Lake, he came up through the top ranks of the B.C. High School Rodeo Association.

He competed in the B.C. Rodeo Association where he won the season leader saddle twice, as well as the finals, plus two go rounds.

From there, he decided to turn professional.

Poffenroth, along

with his wife, Caterina and son, Rino, recently made the move to Alberta.

“To compete in the Canadian Pro Rodeo circuit, it’s so much easier being over in Alberta,” he said. “It’s hard on the horses making the constant haul over the mountains.”

You won’t find many others with as much dedication to the sport as Poffenroth.

When he’s not travelling to a rodeo he’s in the practice pen critiquing and improving himself, all while keeping a full-time job as a hired hand at a large Alberta feedlot.

Poffenroth doctors cows, delivers calves and fixes machinery at the feedlot.

“The Kellys have been great to me,” he

said. “They understand and love rodeo as much as I do, so if I’m up at a Wednesday morning slack performance they don’t mind if I’m not at work.

“If I’m not at a rodeo on a weekend I’ll be at the feedlot.”

Poffenroth grew up around rodeo.

His dad, Bryan, calf roped and his mom, Raylene, ran barrels.

He’s come by the sport naturally, picking up a rope as soon as he could fit it in his hand.

Whether it was roping his cat or his little sister, Bailey, he hasn’t stopped, and loves helping others with their roping.

When Poffenroth lived in Riske Creek, high school calf ropers would travel to the house during the summer and they’d be out

in the practice pen improving their roping.

“Kids just love him,” Caterina said.

“We will be at family functions and there Virg will be roping the dummy or playing tag with the kids.

“There’s always one little one who doesn’t know how to swing a rope yet there’s Virgil teaching them how.”

Poffenroth said he’s looking forward to competing this weekend at the Williams Lake Stampede.

“Williams Lake is my favourite rodeo,” he said. “It’s one I’ve always wanted to win.

“It’s a great atmosphere and it’s awesome being in front of my hometown crowd.”

Poffenroth will be competing in the Sunday afternoon Williams Lake Stampede, which starts at 1:45 p.m.

Grass Stains claim slo-pitch title Greg Sabatino Staff Writer It wasn’t easy, but the Grass Stains squeaked out a 16-15 victory over the Rookies in the ‘A’ division final of the Williams Lake Slo-Pitch League Overlander Pub Fundraiser Tournament Sunday.

On the ‘B’ side of the draw it was the Brew Jays, climbing back through the losers side of the draw to earn revenge on the team that sent them there, the Vigilantes, in a 17-7 final victory.

Sixteen teams competed at the tournament, which WLSPL president Linda Bar-

bondy said was a complete success.

“The tournament was very good,” she said. “The weather was close to perfect and everything worked out really well. We made just over $2,000 for the league which will go toward money to pay for concrete for our two new sets of bleachers up there.”

Third place in the ‘A’ division went to the Rowdies, while third in the ‘B’ division was the Wild Chickens.

For their efforts, the Grass Stains took home $1,000 cash, along with a team prize pack including shirts, hoodies hats and bags.

the steering wheel broke off. Super Dave had to fly the plane by opening and closing doors and the manual effort of leaning back and forth. Despite several failed rescue efforts, Dave flew the plane for 52 minutes that way before beautifully landing the plane.

Once on the ground he fainted.

From the age of 8, Dave knew he wanted to fly. A glider flight and watching a Snow Birds performance, he was hooked.

He’s been a pilot for Air Canada Jazz, a bush pilot, started a float plane business in Greece, then went on to fly United Nations relief into Sumatra, charters in the Arctic, the Carribean and Maldives Islands.

With more than 16,000 commercial hours of flying time in more than 160 different types of airplanes, some in test flights, he’s now a full time air show pilot.

Super Dave is one of the featured performers at Skyfest Aug. 3-4 and he said he’s quite looking forward to the show.

Super Dave pilots a Scheyden MX2. It’s his third season in this plane which is the only one of its kind in Canada.

“It’s completely constructed of carbon fibre which makes it lighter and stronger.

You can’t break it in the sky,” he said.

“My plane has the highest roll rate at 500 degrees per second.

With 385 horse power I can fly at 300 miles an hour.”
