Defence accuses Crown of delay in Gentles case Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A high profile impaired driving case is back before the courts this week.

The defence lawyer for Martin Gentles made an application for delay in Williams Lake Supreme Court Monday before Justice John D. Truscott.

Ken Walker argued the Crown is responsible for delay in the three-year-old case of Gentles, who last February was found guilty of impaired driving and fleeing the scene of a collision which left one woman dead and another seriously injured in April of 2012.

If Truscott finds delay in the case, he said he will not sentence

Gentles on his two convictions.

Crown counsellor Julie Dufour, who prosecuted Gentles on several charges relating to the incident, told the court Monday the accused suffered no serious prejudice as a result of the delay.

“Drunk driving is a terrible crime that causes carnage ... we cannot be passive. This is

The remains of the L-shaped building at Williams Inn after a blaze there early Sunday.

Fire department kept busy with suspicious fires Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Things heated up for the Williams Lake Fire Department during the weekend.

Deputy Fire Chief Rob Warnock said his crews responded to nine calls between 1 a.m. Saturday and 9 p.m. Sunday.

“We were at a dumpster fire call at a church on Carson Drive Saturday and then right after that were called to a fire in two rooms at the Slumber Lodge,” Warnock said.

Right after the structure fire at the Slumber Lodge, which is empty and has been

boarded up since 2012, the department was called to a second dumpster fire, this time at United Floors on Oliver Street.

“Then on Sunday morning we had a structure fire in the Lshaped building that was still standing at the Williams Inn, in behind where we had a fire before,” Warnock said. “The 150 Mile Vounteer Fire Department assisted us with the Williams Inn and we are very grateful.”

Warnock said it was the fourth fire at Williams Inn in the last two and a half years, noting the two structure fires and the dumpster fires are all

considered suspicious.

Later at around 4:15 p.m. Sunday the department responded to a grass fire in the 800 block of Dog Creek Road that had moved to a garage.

During the weekend the department also received burning complaints despite the open burning and campfire ban imposed last Friday throughout the entire province.

“In the city of Williams Lake there is also no burning whatsoever,” Warnock said as he urged the public to be careful. “We had a few people having campfires who just didn’t know.”

Delay decision expected today, July 8 Continued From Page A1 On April 22, 2012, Gentles’ vehicle struck Rayel MacDonald and her friend Alysha Mullett as they attempted to cross Carson Drive after attending the 2012 Williams Lake Indoor Rodeo dance at about 2:15 a.m.

The tragedy was recounted in a preliminary hearing in 2013, and again throughout a three-week trial in 2014, which saw several civilian and police witnesses take the stand before a crowded courtroom.

In his submission this week, Walker argued it was the first

year after the collision that caused his client to experience prejudice.

Originally Gentles was charged the day of the collision with two counts of impaired driving causing death and impaired driving causing bodily harm relating.

By June 27, 2012,

however, Crown stayed the charges and waited a year until April 2013 to approve seven charges against Gentles.

Walker said Crown had all of their material by the summer of 2012 and the overall time period exceeded what the Supreme Court had in mind un-

der Section 11B of the Charter, where it states any person charged with an offence has the right to be informed without unreasonable delay of the specific offence.

Dufour argued the 10-month gap between June 27, 2012 when the first charges were stayed and up to April

25, 2013 when the proceedings were recommenced should not be considered a delay attributed to Crown.

Dufour also said Gentles did not provide any evidence of actual prejudice caused by the delay in his affidavit sworn Feb. 3, 2015 or provide evidence that he didn’t agree to

any of his court dates throughout.

“He lost his job shortly after the proceedings were stayed, not as a result of the delay,” she added. “His stigma and fear were concerned with the charges not the delay.”

Truscott is expected to make his decision Wednesday, July 8.

Bench marks company’s 150th year Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer E.B. Horsman and Son Ltd. took home a bit of the Cariboo after Stampede weekend when the local branch presented the company with a Pioneer Log Homes bench to mark the company’s 115th anniversary.

“I decided to celebrate the anniversary with a bench and had it made for head office,” said Tom Wittal who has managed the company in Williams Lake for 23 years.

The bench seemed fitting for a B.C. company, Wittal added.

For the third year in a row, Wittal and his wife, Uli, hosted a VIP

tent on the Stampede Grounds where they fed their guests Friday and Saturday.

“We invited VIPs from local industry, people from the mills, mines and construction,” he said.

E.B. Horsman Ltd. was started by Edward Bodwell Horsman, originally in Moosomin, Sask., but Edward moved to Vancouver in 1907, said fifth generation family member Tim Horsman who runs the company and attended the celebration.

“I’ve attended every year,” Horsman said.

“Tom puts on a tremendous event and I enjoy getting out to visit all our branches. The

company was founded on grass roots and resource business.”

As a child he spent five years living in Francois Lake on an 80-acre farm.

Now that he’s a parent raising children in the city and working at the head office in Surrey, he also enjoys travelling to the company’s 20 locations in B.C. While Horsman divulged the company will be doing 115th anniversary events throughout the year, he wouldn’t disclose his plans for the bench.

“I’ve got some ideas,” he smiled.

In the meantime, Wittal said he continues to love working for the company he has been

SOAKING UP THE SUN

ummertime living is supposed to be easy, but it’s hard to feel easy with so much worrisome stuff in the news.

Mount Polley Mine has been front and centre in the local worry department for almost a year. We’re supposed to have some answers this month.

Things are going wonky with our senior governments. Trouble is brewing over the Site C Dam. There are more reasons against building it than for it but the Clark government barges ahead. Then there is the matter of the province’s wrongful dismissal of eight health researchers in 2012. They were having a look at the safety of prescription drugs, and at the time of their firing the government said they were under French RCMP investigaConnection tion. They were not. There was Diana French no evidence for a police investigation. Since then one researcher committed suicide and the others are demanding an independent investigation.

The Premier has apologized. There have been five investigations, none got to the bottom of the affair. There are suggestions the government wanted the researchers gone because it didn’t like what they were finding.

Responding to howls from the researchers, whistle blowers, opposition members, the former auditor general and the mainstream media, Health Minister Terry Lake has asked that the new ombudsman investigate. That’s not flying well because the ombudsman has just moved up from the Justice Ministry which was involved in the firings.

The big question is who benefited from the firings. Why the stalling? Will this end up like the BC Rail inquiry?

I won’t mention all the woes in Ottawa, but it does seem that our systems for ensuring the oversight and accountability of governments aren’t working well, which leaves us with the courts to look after our interests. Or the United Nations. Two Canadian groups are taking Bill C-51, the anti-terrorist legislation, to the U.N.’ s Human Rights Committee. That’s embarrassing.

Oh well. Let’s enjoy the summer weather before it turns on us.

Another tactic Quick question: What has eight arms and an IQ of 60?

A drunk driving his three friends home.

It boggles the mind that in this information age people are still getting in their cars and driving after drinking.

According to the RCMP, a person is killed every three days during summer in impaired related crashes. ICBC recently released the top excuses given by drivers caught in CounterAttack roadchecks and they read like a primer in idiocy: • “My girlfriend was too drunk to make it home from the bar, so I’m going to pick her up.”

• “I’m an idiot!”

• “But I have a driver’s licence, no one else had a driver’s licence!”

• “I don’t feel drunk!”

• “I’m only two blocks from home.”

• “Mom told me to bring the truck home.”

• “I had to pick up my husband.”

As my father used to say, “Those are reasons, not an excuse.”

When you think about that phrase for a moment, its depth becomes apparent. A person can always think of reasons for their

stupidity, but there is never an excuse to get behind the wheel of a ton (or more) of steel and hit the highway.

RCMP officers, and the majority of the rest of us, know that should a drunk driver be hurt or killed in an accident, it is horrible for the family — but it was also something brought on by the driver. Should that driver kill an innocent, which happens in many cases, it is an unthinkable tragedy made worse by the fact that it was so unnecessary.

Now people who drink and drive will not read past the first sentence of this editorial.

Decades of anti-drunk driving messages have failed to hit home and they are far too deluded or selfish to change their ways— especially if they feel like they are being preached to.

I suggest strong, unrelenting ridicule.

Ridicule their intellect. Ridicule their driving ability. Ridicule their lack of self-control and if the offending driver happens to be male, bring out the big guns and ridicule their manhood.

So it is up to us, all of us who know people who drink and drive to try to save a life.

ith Metro Vancouver and much of B.C. covered with a thick haze of forest fire smoke, the BC SPCA is encouraging animal guardians to refresh their emergency pet preparedness.

Several new wildfires as well as old ones have caused evacuation orders and states of emergency in several B.C. communities, prompting people to leave their homes as quickly as possible.

“When you’re ordered to evacuate, you need to do it as soon as possible, and people don’t necessarily think about their pet in an emergency situation until it’s too late,” says BC SPCA general manager of community relations Lorie Chortyk.

Evacuations are usually a busy time for staff and volunteers at the province’s BC SPCA branches, as they provide extra shelter, pet food and pet-related equipPaw ment such as Prints crates and leashes Lorie for pet guardians Chortyk and animals.

“When you’re in a hurry, it can be easy to forgot feeding bowls, food, leashes, everything,” Chortyk says. “That’s why it’s important to plan ahead and be prepared for any emergency.”

Having an emergency pet kit handy is key, as well as ensuring your pet is already wearing a collar with up-to-date contact information, Chortyk notes. Keeping your pets inside the house so you don’t need to search for them is also a good idea, as is having emergency pet boarding plans in place.

Items to include in an emergency kit for your pet(s) include: • A seven-day supply of food and water • Identification tag and collar • Sturdy crate and/or carrier • Pet first aid kit • Blanket/plastic bags • Leash, harness • Food and water bowls (collapsible are great) • Litter box and litter for cats • Manual can opener • Copy of your pet’s current vaccination history • Any special medications and instructions “No one likes to think an emergency like a wildfire or an earthquake will happen. But in the event it does, it doesn’t hurt to be prepared,” Chortyk says.

Mel Hurtig’s book The Arrogant Autocrat says next year, 2016, the one per cent will own more global wealth than 99 per cent worldwide (Oxfam cited).

Unequal power rules unequally.

Distortion, denial, or deception?

Can Atlantic Power sue for unmade profits if burning railroad ties in Williams Lake is rejected?

We would like to deliver a big bouquet of roses to all the people who sponsored us to attend the Beautiful You journey in Lac La Hache and who helped with the program. Without your generous support this retreat would not be possible.

Const. Jacques pulled over to help us and, although it was 35-plus degrees out on Stampede weekend and clearly not part of his job, he fixed our tire and sent us safely on our way.

So, thank you for being a kind citizen and an even better police officer.

ROSES & RASPBERRIES Someone you know do something worthwhile?

Or maybe not so worthwhile?

Send them a Rose or Raspberry.

Dina Kennedy and the ladies from the Great Room *** Roses to Denise and the staff of the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. Thanks so much for adding two extra aquafit classes to the June schedule. It is much appreciated.

Over the weekend, the Conservation Officer Service conducted patrols on behalf of the Cariboo Fire Centre checking 72 campsites.

They found six campfires, which resulted in one warning ticket and verbal requests for compliance.

A “light-handed” approach was used this weekend in the Cariboo since the prohibition came into effect on Friday and people may have not been aware of the campfire ban. However, these patrols will be ongoing throughout the summer and the campfire ban will be fully enforced.

On Tuesday afternoon, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations issued a press release stating due to elevated wildfire activity in B.C., 70 personnel will be arriving from Ontario to assist firefighting efforts.

Sixty-three sustainedaction firefighters and seven other specialized personnel from Ontario will be stationed in Abbotsford and Cranbrook.

They will be deployed throughout the Coastal Fire Centre and Southeast Fire Centre based on current fire activity and projected need.

In addition, two amphibious skimming aircraft, one birddog aircraft and an air attack officer from Ontario arrived in Kamloops Tuesday.

The BC Wildfire Service cannot stress enough that the public is our first line of defence against forest fires.

Human-caused wildfires divert critical resources away from naturally-occurring fires and they are completely preventable, the BCWS said.

Identity Crisis rocks park performance Sean Glanville Special to Tribune/Advisor The young and aspiring band Identity Crisis kicked off the 2015 Performances in the Park schedule Thursday evening.

They entertained a crowd of about 300 people on a perfect summer evening in the lakecity with a variety of cover songs as well as original music.

The progressive alternative rock band consists of Ilan Peimer as lead vocalist, Kayne Robinson on bass guitar and Clayton Charleyboy playing guitar and back up vocalist.

Their performance included covers such as Pink Floyd’s Another Brick in the Wall and Red Hot Chilli Peppers’ By The Way as well as showcasing some of their newly written music.

“We did pretty much all cover songs but a couple months ago

Identity Crisis impressed the audience with their progressive alternative rock music Thursday night at Performances in the Park.

The band consists of guitarist Kayne Robinson (left), lead vocalist Ilan Peimer, drummer Clayton Charleyboy and guest guitarist Nathan Summer. begin writing our own music and we now try to play an equal ratio of covers to originals,” said Peimer.

The guys were happy with how the performance went and received plenty of positive feedback from friends and family after

the show.

The trio are all 18 and recently graduated from Lake City Secondary and have come a long way in a short time period.

“Clayton and Kayne began jamming together about 18 months ago and they heard

that I could sing,” said Ilan. “At first I never thought too much of it but when I decided to meet up with them and saw them in person I was impressed and we all hit it off from there.”

While Robinson and Charleyboy are born and raised locally,

Peimer arrived in Williams Lake from Cape Town, South Africa four years ago when his dad took a job as a doctor in the lakecity.

Identity Crisis have been very busy playing local gigs all over town including the Stampede Street Party, busking at the Bean Counter, playing in front of their high school and all kinds of other local events.

Favourite musicians for Ilan include Black Keys and Kings of Leon, Kayne’s top bands include Tool and Radiohead and Clayton likes to rock out to Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Pearl Jam. They were headed to a recording studio in Quesnel on Sunday to record their first album which includes 10 songs.

For more information on the band and their upcoming gigs you can like them on Facebook.

Summer Reading Club builds in all directions Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer There’s a party going on at the Williams Lake Library activity room this summer complete with festive ribbons and pinatas, a star tunnel, and rocket launcher photo booth.

It’s all part of the set Katherine Goertz-Sheppard has created for the library’s Summer Reading Club to help kids keep in touch with reading while having fun over the summer holidays.

Katherine and her husband, John Sheppard, who is working for Big Brothers and Big Sisters, are university students working in the lakecity for the summer.

Katherine is one semester short of completing an honours degree in English at the University of Victoria. John has finished his degree in history and psychology.

They both plan to further their educations to become elementary school teachers. In between their university studies, Katherine says they took some time out to serve in Niger with the Christian Missionary Alliance.

Katherine is originally from Salmon Arm and has some relatives here. John grew up in Williams Lake and has family here.

Katherine credits the power of the internet for the interesting displays, posters and activities she has developed for the Summer Reading Club but says she is no artist.

“My mom’s an artist,” Katherine says. “I’m more crafty than arty.”

The Summer Reading Club program is sponsored by the B.C. Library Association and pubic libraries throughout the province.

The free program for children ages three to 12 began at the Williams Lake Library July 7. While some classes are already full, Katherine says there are still lots of spaces available.

Registered Summer Reading Club members receive a special reading kit with a booklet in which to keep track of their reading over the summer, or in the case of younger children what their parents or caretakers may read to them.

In addition to the booklet the reading kit includes bookmarks, posters and stickers. A reading suggestion list is provided along with a display of books available in the library that will change each week to match that particular week’s theme.

The library sessions will include a variety of fun activities, crafts, and story-times based on the theme “Build it.”

Katherine says they will usually start with a story that she will

The activities, stories and crafts will relate to each week’s theme: build the future; build your story; build it yourself; build to last; build your imagination; build for fun; and build a mystery.

Katherine has some fun craft ideas she has found include building a space rocket pack out of large pop bottles which she will have the older children make.

The younger children will decorate robot costumes which she made this spring and had some children embellish for the Summer Reading Club’s entry in the Daybreak Rotary Stampede Parade.

In building their stories children may use collage, and upcycling of old books, plus words and writing to tell their stories.

She’s also got plans for making paper bag houses, popsicle stick bird houses, and towers made from dry spaghetti and marshmallows. They may also build creatures out of plasticine, sparkles and pipe cleaners and build crafts based on the Minecraft video game.

Other activities such as sending a secret invisible message (until the paper is warmed), a scavenger hunt with hidden clues, making a cellophane magnifying glass, and puppet play.

Children can attend one free session per week and even if they

Each week Katherine says she will put all of the names of the children who have read for 10

minutes a day into a draw box for a small toy prize.

And at the end of the seven week program every child who has read for 10 minutes a day receives a medal. And at the end of the seven weeks all the children will be invited to a party to wrap up their summer reading adventures.

Katherine has been working since May planning the program and in June visiting schools. She, along with the other library staff will be available to help children find suitable materials, whether it’s a print book, audiobook, ebook, magazine or any combination of items.

The Summer Reading Club is designed to motivate children to read regularly (or be read to), and to help children maintain or improve reading skills while school is out. To register call 250-3923630 or email wlsrcoordinator@ cariboord.ca.

The Studio Theatre is holding a script reading at the theatre on July 19 starting at 5 p.m.

People who have a script or scripts they would like to read that are not part of the 2015/16 season are invited to bring them along.

Each script piece should be no longer than 10 minutes.

Readers without scripts are also invited to join the fun.

Advance registration is required as the club is providing a pot-luck hamburger barbecue at wlstheatre@gmail.com.

There will also be a Studio Theatre board meeting at 3:30 p.m. which people are invited to attend to see just how much fun it is to be on the board.

Barkerville Cemetery Accessible Trail officially open The historic town of Barkerville is the most recent community in the Cariboo Chilcotin to unveil a new accessible trail.

“The completion of this new accessible trail adds another great feature to the popular historic town of Barkerville. I applaud the work and leadership of the Cariboo Regional District, and the many businesses and individuals whose support and financial contributions have made this new trail a reality. Together, you have created a valuable public gathering place for individuals of all levels of mobility to enjoy for years to come,” said Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

Approximately 750 metres long, the Barkerville Cemetery Trail follows along a portion of the old Cariboo Wagon Road, providing a unique route between the Barkerville town site and the Barkerville Cemetery.

Visitors of all mobility levels can enjoy this picturesque trail with access to the historic cemetery.

“It is with great pleasure we are able to officially open another trail in the Cariboo Chilcotin and take the next step towards developing the region as an accessible and inclusive tourism destination,” stated CRD Electoral Area C Director John Massier. “Partnering with Barkerville, the province, NDIT and

CCBAC have helped us expand access to this site to those with limited mobility and I know it will be an outdoor attraction for both residents and tourists.”

Five rest stops are interspersed along the trail route and an informational kiosk is provided for users’ convenience. The trail has a packed, six-foot wide crushed gravel surface with a gentle grade and sections of moderate difficulty.

“The official trail opening is the completion of a vision to connect the Barkerville site and the Barkerville Cemetery in an inclusive way,” stated Barkerville Historic Town’s Chief Executive Officer, Ed Coleman. “The Barkerville Heritage Trust is very excited to provide an additional opportunity for people of all mobility levels to enjoy Barkerville’s rich history, and we would like to thank everyone who helped make this trail a reality.”

“The Barkerville Cemetery Accessible Trail means that more people will be able to learn about and enjoy the incredible history

behind B.C.’s Cariboo region. Northern Development is proud to have played a small role in helping to make this first-class attraction more accessible,” states Janine North, CEO of Northern Development Initiative Trust.

“The Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Action Coalition is excited to be a part of this regional project,” stated CCBAC Chair, Bob Simpson.

“It is an excellent example of how partnerships, cooperation and collaboration can achieve great results.

Projects such as the Barkerville Cemetery Accessible Trail improve our communities by making our region accessible to all and enhance the visitor experience in the Cariboo Chilcotin.”

The Barkerville

ABORIGINAL

Cemetery Accessible Trail is located 81 kilometres east of Quesnel on Highway 26. Ongoing management of the site is provided by the Barkerville Heritage Trust.

The Barkerville Cemetery Accessible Trail was built in partnership between the Cariboo Regional District, the Barkerville Heritage Trust, Friends of Barkerville, Northern Development Initiative Trust, Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Action Coalition and the provincial government through the BC Community Recreation Program.

NDP MLA calls on B.C. government to digitize democracy Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Burnaby-Lougheed NDP MLA Jane Jae Kyung Shin has been travelling across the province advocating that government accept electronic petitions.

“This past session I tabled an E-Petition

I think it’s a great opportunity for B.C. ... and do what makes sense for the electorate.”

- NDP MLA Jane Jae Kyung Shin bill for the third time,” Shin told the Tribune.

Other jurisdictions, including Quebec,

the UK and U.S. have already done it, she

said.

“They’ve acknowledged the Internet has been around for 30 years and it allows people to participate and voice their opinions by electronic submissions.”

When federal opposition MP Kennedy Stewart tabled the bill, the federal MPs

regardless of party passed it unanimously, she added.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for B.C. to also follow through and do what makes sense for the electorate, especially the rural communities, where the challenges of distances sometimes keep people from having their voices heard.”

Shin has a petition she’s been taking with her on the road in hopes she will gather enough signatures to present in the legislature when MLA resume in July.

“I call it my petition for E-petition,” she chuckled, noting a lot of people don’t realize when they copy and paste a petition and send it to their MLA,

or post it on social media to express concerns, it does not go any further.

“It does not ever make it to the house because it’s not accepted in that form.”

Shin said people can mail in signatures or e-mail her so she can figure out how to obtain the hard copies.

“I will be happy to hear from anyone who wants to support the bill and I have an E-Petition to support the E-Petition, although I won’t be able to introduce that.”

Shin can be reached by mail Room 201 Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. V8V 1X4, by phone 604660-5058 or by e-mail jane.shin.mla@leg. bc.ca.

Public feedback on distracted driving penalties encouraged B.C.’s Minister of Justice Suzanne Anton is urging the public to weigh in as her ministry looks at revamping distracted driving penalties.

“Distracted driving is the second-leading cause of death on B.C.’s roads,” Anton said during a press conference Tuesday.

Of the thousands of people who have provided feedback since the campaign began two weeks ago, 90 per cent said they are concerned about stopping distracted driving.

However, most of the public responses are coming from urban centres, Anton said as she encour-

aged people in the North and Central part of the province to provide feedback.

Seventeen per cent of deaths caused by distracted driving occur in the North and Central part of the province, she added.

So far people are saying the fines are too low, Anton said, noting B.C.’s fines are the second lowest in

Canada.

“At $167, some people are saying the fines are the cost of doing business. Some people think the fines should be as low as $250, some $500 and some as high as $750.”

In reviewing the penalties, the ministry is also wondering if immediate roadside vehicle impoundment

is the way to go or if license suspension is the answer and what the length of those impoundments or suspensions should be, Anton said.

The consultation runs until July 16, 2015. To add your voice, visit gov.bc.ca/ distracteddriving or tweet @RoadSafetyBC using the #distractedbc hashtag.

Shuster Johnston (second from left) and his No. 77 driving team of Don Fletcher (from left), Grant Overton, Bryan Desilets, Murray Driver, Barrie Brown at the Quesnel Auto Racing Association Race Track.

After 40 years, Johnston calling it a career Greg Sabatino Staff Writer Stock car driver Wayne “Shuster” Johnston is going out his way, by the numbers.

After all, 77 was the number that graced the side of his multiple legendary winning cars and, after 40 years in the racing business, at age 77 with countless track records and titles under his belt, Johnston figures it’s time to hang up his racing suit.

“I’m already going goofy,” Johnston said of not racing this season.

“But 77 years (old) is a start. It’s not like we can’t do it. I’ve toyed with the idea of getting another car but my wife doesn’t seem to like that very much.”

A room filled with trophies from 23 championships in more than five different classifications, a rookie of the year title from Thunder Mountain Speedway in 1973, a gold medal from the BC Games in 1974 and a scrapbook overflowing with newspaper clippings both good and bad highlight a career full of memories to remind him of his glory days.

Johnston moved from Lulu Island (Richmond) to Riske Creek in 1948 when his parents bought the general store. He then came to Williams Lake to look for work and, eventually, found himself a career in excavating — a business he’s worked in for the past 60 years.

His foray into the racing world

Shuster Johnston (back from left), Vince Lafek, Eddie Thibeault (bottom from left), Ronnie Thibeault and Terry Rust with a racing trophy at the Chilcotin Inn in 1977/78. began when he was literally dragged to a track by a friend.

“I didn’t even want to go,” he said, noting he was 38 years old at the time.

As he watched a racer, Larry Bulitsky — the racer to beat in the early 70s — beat the pack in a 1957 Chevy, he was unimpressed.

“I went out and thought: ‘I can do a better job than those guys,’” he said.

His friend convinced him to prove it.

“My first year I never won a race but finished second and was hooked. I’ve done it ever since.”

The stories about his many victories, more often than not, aren’t his favourites. Johnston is the first to admit the sport of racing is a team effort.

“It’s all camaraderie is what it is,” Johnston said, pointing to his team of dedicated racing crew members over the years.

“The guys hang out and win, lose or draw it is what it is. It’s a team sport all the way. It’s a pricey sport to hang in there and my guys, they’ve been around so long.”

He said Andy McCallum, his early crew chief who moulded the No. 77 team into what it is to-

day, plus crew members Murray Driver, Terry ‘Rusty’ Rust, Vince Lafek, Don Fletcher, Darren Bailey, Larry ‘Sparky’ Bethune, Grant Overton, Brian Nicholson, Dan Prins, Gerry Fluttert, Wayne Randall, Peter Becker, Bryan Desilets, Derrick Berry, Dale Stickle, Barrie ‘the tire guy’ Brown, Fatty Fellows and Billy Nelson all helped him succeed in the sport.

He also thanked his many sponsors from throughout the years for making it possible for him to afford to race.

Asked why more young people aren’t getting into racing, Johnston said the sport requires some deep pockets.

“I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on race cars,” he said.

“The young guys coming into the sport just don’t have the money and it’s a shame. I got fairly good and you get sponsors because you win. The young fellas are a little rambunctious. They wreck a lot of stuff before they learn.

“It’s more of a challenge to beat the rookies than the good guys, though. You try to school the rookies. I always said, ‘lad, you don’t win every race. Wait to pounce. You wait ‘til there’s an opening, you don’t make one.’”

Johnston has one final piece of advice for those coming into the sport: refuse to lose.

“I’m not leaving on a sour note,” he said. “I love the sport.”

Williams Lake Blue Fins swimmers Cole Turner, Taylor Fitzgerald, Kara Zavitz and Ashley Beauchamp were in Victoria July 2-5 for the Swim BC ‘AAA’ Long Course Championships.

Blue Fins close out season at AAA provincials The Williams Lake Blue Fins finished up their competitive racing season with four swimmers travelling to the Swim BC AAA Long Course Championships in Victoria July 2-5.

Ashley Beauchamp, Kara Zavitz, Cole Turner and Taylor Fitzgerald all competed after achieving qualifying times throughout the season.

Beauchamp raced her last meet with the team with some solid

results and will now prepare for university next year, said Blue Fins head coach Chad Webb.

Webb said Zavitz, meanwhile, finished off a great year of racing, narrowly missing finals in her swims.

“It certainly did not take away from her impressive year,” he said.

Turner almost managed to qualify for finals in his 50-metre freestyle following the Swim BC AA Long Course Champion-

ships the weekend prior where he managed to qualify for the AAA event.

Fitzgerald was the lone Blue Fin to make a second swim in the finals managing a seventh-place finish in her 200-metre backstroke.

“This was Taylor’s first AAA meet and her future looks very good with the team,” Webb said, noting although there weren’t as many final qualifications as he’d hoped for, he was still happy

with the meet.

“They are a solid group of swimmers that will just keep getting better and better,” he said.

“We lose Ashley this year but we have quite a few younger swimmers that will be here at this meet in the near future.”

The Blue Fins will now run two weeks of summer camps then take a break until Sept.

14 when they will hold their annual free week of swimming again.

Soccer teams gearing up for provincials The Williams Lake under-14 girls soccer team held its opposition scoreless late June to march away with a gold medal from the Cariboo Youth Soccer League finals in Quesnel.

The team thumped Prince George, 5-0, then handily downed Quesnel, 4-0, en route

to the championship.

The Williams Lake under-16 girls, meanwhile, scooped up a silver medal at the tournament.

The team lost a heartbreaker, 1-0, to Quesnel in the final off a penalty kick after a Quesnel player was fouled in the box.

Lakecity soccer

teams are now preparing to travel to their respective provincial championships this weekend.

The under-14 girls will be in Nelson, the under-14 boys travel to 100 Mile House and the under-16 girls and the under-17 boys make their way to Penticton.

Glagowski,

Klaus-Dieter

May 15th, 1938 - June 11th, 2015 With heavy hearts we had to say goodbye to Klaus, who passed away at home in the loving care of his family. He leaves behind Siegrid, his wife of 51 years, his daughter Ariane, son-in-law David, granddaughter Charlotte, and his sister Anneliese who lives in Germany.

We lost a true gentleman and loving father. Klaus was born in Germany where he left the former East Germany by passing Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin. To avoid conscription into the West German army, he decided to do volunteer work in a Catholic Mission in the Belgian Congo (now Zaire) where he worked for two years.

There he learned many languages including Dutch, English, French, and Lingala (Congo dialect). Africa became his second home. He returned briefly to Germany but went back to Africa (Burundi) where he worked for the White Fathers Catholic Mission. After two and a half years he decided to settle down and married Siegrid.

However, after spending so much time in the wilderness of Africa, Germany was not for him anymore. In 1969, a few years after the birth of his daughter, the family left Germany and settled in Kelowna. In 1972, the family moved for the last time, finding their home in Williams Lake. Klaus worked as a Volkswagen mechanic at Kenworth Motors and in 1979 he and his partner Erwin Richter founded Williams Lake Autohaus. He decided to retire in the early nineties.

Jack Rowat

July 22, 1935 ~June 2, 2015 Jack was born in Dryden, Ontario to Jack and Christine Rowat.

They moved to Vernon when Jack was 14, then to the Cariboo in 1951 where he worked in the family sawmill at Borland Valley.

Jack and Marg Grover married in 1956. They had five children: Jacquie, Gord, Robbie, Ryan, and Shannon, who were all born when they lived on Rowat Road.

Jack went into the trucking business in 1966, first with a gravel truck which took him to Prince Rupert, and later with the family for a short time, to the Queen Charlotte Islands. He later purchased a logging truck, and later his career change to supplying truck parts as owner of J & C Equipment.

Jack and Marg later built and operated a bed and breakfast near Scout Island. Retiring in 2001, they moved to Lac la Hache, where they spent many happy times with family and friends.

Later they moved hack to Williams Lake to the home built by Jack’s parents in the 1950s.

Jack was a busy man, always puttering in th garden, traveling, and building things. He loved working with rocks and camping, playing cards and sharing time with family and friends, often hosting and cooking big breakfasts. He liked to read, especially the atlas, encyclopedia, bible and the farmers almanac; he always wanted to know the facts, where people came from, and what their job was. He was a faithful friend and his family was everything to him.

Jack was a dependable, honourable, easy going, steady and independent man. His faith in God was real and he proved that actions speak louder than words.

Jack is survived by his wife Marg, children Gord (Nadine), Ryan (Teri), and Shannon (Brucks Wedel); grandchildren Mason, Reece, Sierra, Chloe, Ethan, Roberta (Lyndon Froese), Elizabeth, Ascher, and Wilson; great grandchild Talia; two sisters: Verna (Nate Parchomchuck) and Linda Duthie; and mother-in-law Ruth Eddy. He was predeceased by daughters Jacquie and Robbie, son-in-law Dale Hopkins, brothers Gordon, Richard and Don. Jack has left a big hole in our hearts.

The family would like to thank the many people who touched our hearts this past while: the nurses and doctors, RRTs and everyone who cared for him in the hospital. He didn’t think he could have gotten better care anywhere. He so appreciated all of you.

Also a big thank you to family and friends who travelled, brought flowers an food, and comfort to all of us. Thank you as well to Father Derrick and Luc LaPrairie.

Klaus loved hunting, camping, fishing and was most happy somewhere in the mountains up north. His best hunting partner was always his wife, who never shot anything.

What a wonderful life we had together.

His memorial ceremony will be held on Saturday July 11, 2015 at 11:00 am at the Sacred Heart Church. Father Derrick Cameron officiating.

The family would like to give special thanks for the support of our wonderful neighbours, friends, and the Home Care nurses.

July 22, 1934 ~ June 27, 2015

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father, Marvin Jorund Hansen, of Williams Lake B.C., on June 27th, 2015, at the great age of “80” years old; just 3 weeks shy of his 81st birthday!

Dad was born to the late Magnus and Hildebjorg Hansen on July 22nd, 1934 in Port Alberni, B.C. He was a proud “Norwegian Canadian” and member of the Sons of Norway.

Dad grew up with his parents and 3 siblings in Port Alberni where he met and married his first wife, Joan Gibson, in 1955. They had 4 wonderful children together, who were lovingly raised in several communities in British Columbia.

Dad was a dedicated Telecommunications Union Worker (TWU) and started his long career with B.C. Tel, at age 16, in Port Alberni. He was transferred to Fort St. John in 1963, to Abbotsford in 1965 and then settled in Williams Lake in 1971, where he lived the remainder of his life. He enjoyed his service as Shop Steward of the local TWU for many years and also volunteered with the Telephone Pioneers of America. He retired from BC Tel, after 44 years of service at age 60 in 1994.

After his marriage to Joan ended, Dad met and married Margaret Zowty, in 1979. Throughout his life, Dad pursued his passions of family, gardening, fishing and hunting, playing sports and coaching. He was an avid outdoorsman and took every opportunity to go fishing and hunting with his friends and family! Dad proudly supported his son, Rick, as he journeyed on the Man in Motion World Tour from 1985 – 1987 and continued to help keep the dream alive by volunteering on the Williams Lake Wheels in Motion committee for years afterwards.

Dad is survived by his wife: Margaret Hansen of Williams Lake, B.C.; his sister: Gunhild McKay (Roger) of Oliver, B.C.; his 4 children: Rick Hansen (Amanda) of Richmond, B.C., Brad Hansen (Jeannie) of Williams Lake, B.C., Cindy Moore (Geordie) of Williams Lake, B.C., and Christine Clayton (Ray) of Sechelt, B.C.; his step-daughter: Dawn Aronitz of Surrey, B.C.; his 9 grandchildren: Emma (Aaron) Vandenbrink, Alana Hansen, Rebecca Hansen, Jena (Jeff ) Fraser, Grant Hansen, Alexis Moore, Lauren Moore, Sharli Clayton and Cassidy Clayton; his great grand-daughter: Isabelle Fraser; and all of his nieces and nephews.

He is predeceased by his parents: Magnus and Hildebjorg Hansen from Port Alberni, B.C. - originally from Norway. Also, predeceased by his brother: Herman Hansen; his sister: Eileen Hansen; his step-son: Jim Aronitz; and his precious, 1st great grandson: Reid Richard Vandenbrink.

Our family would like to extend a very special thank you to Dr. Scrooby and all the compassionate and devoted nurses, care aids and staff at the Williams Lake Seniors Village, who took such good care of our father for almost 6 years! A special acknowledgement goes to our dad’s dear friend, Jack Burgar, who shared many great adventures with him and who was always his loyal friend.

Although Dad has left his loving family and friends, he will be forever in our hearts. We will always cherish all the wonderful memories we have of him! A celebration of our father’s life will be announced in the near future and will be a special opportunity for all of us to gather, share our great stories and memories, as we honour him! In lieu of flowers and to honour our father’s legacy, we request that donations be made to the Rick Hansen Foundation.

“May you rest in peace, Dad ~ we will love you forever!”
