It was the perfect day as the sun was shining. We had a pretty good crowd come out to the hall to show their support for our very own medal bearers; Orden Mack and Barbara Dixon. There was quite a few of us that patiently waited along Mountain House for the medal to arrive from Quesnel. Finally it came and was then passed to Barb from the endurance athlete. We all followed her up to the Band office where Sandra,
Lauren, Jacinda & Cecilia sang and drummed a song for us. The Medal Bearers had the opportunity to say a few inspirational words. When Barb passed the medal to Orden he made his way back onto Mountain House Rd. with the crowd cheering him on. He then went to the end of Mountain House Rd. where he passed it onto the endurance athlete where the medal made its way to Williams Lake for the Rick Hansen Celebration. Congratulations to Barb and Orden.

The elders had a bake sale at one of the meetings on March 29, 2012. We didn't
sell all the treats at the meeting so we had some help from Noella as she went and sold the rest at Pioneer Log Homes. Thank You for that Noella. We did this to raise funds for their trip to the 36th Annual Elders Gathering this year in Abbotsford July 10, 11, 12, 2012. We would like to thank everyone who helped and
supported us in this fundraiser and a big thank you the elders and community who donated their delicious goodies for the bake sale. Altogether we raised $80.03. Keep your ears and eyes open as we might have a couple more fundraisers as we get closer to the days of our big event.
