Flyer in effect until August 4, 2012 Arson in Williams LakeBy MONiCa LaMB-yOrSKiTribune Staff Writer

Arson is believed to be the cause of a fire that took place at a residential garage early Thurs-day.

The Williams Lake RCMP say that just before 2 a.m. on Thurs-day, July 26, a homeowner called police to report a fire to the ga-rage at her residence on Western Avenue near Carson Drive.

Moments before, a witness observed a male wearing black shorts, a black shirt, and a red ball cap walk by carrying a Jerry can.

Police say the fire was inten-tionally set.

The Williams Lake Fire De-partment arrived to extinguish the fire.

“Someone had poured gasoline on the face of a garage door and the damage was quite minor. It basically scorched the front of the metal doors on the garage,” fire chief Randy Isfeld says, add-ing there was a vehicle fire at the same location a few months ago.

Two pumper trucks and fire-fighters attended the scene and extinguished the fire quickly.

Anyone with information on this crime is encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or the Williams Lake RCMP at 250-392-6211.

There has been a lot written about low-dose A.S.A. (Aspirin®) lately.

There is evidence it does help people who have had a heart attack but new research has shown it has minimal effect on those with no history of heart disease. A.S.A. is a drug with side effects. Don’t start on this drug without your doctor’s consent.

Mosquitoes can be a nuisance. Everyone has their favourite way of discouraging bites. B vitamins (B-1, B-12) don’t work. Wear light-coloured clothing and use insect repellents that contain DEET. Check with our pharmacists for advice.

When camping, be cautious drinking water from mountain streams and creeks. Two water-borne parasitic diseases, giardia and cryptosporidiosis are caused by parasites sometimes found in water in rural areas. To be safe, bring water to a rolling boil for at least one minute (3 minutes at altitudes above 2000 metres).

Age-related macular degeneration is an eye disease that can affect people above the age of 60 and can lead to retinal damage and blindness. There is evidence that eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids can significantly lower the risk of this disease. Cold water fish like sardines, anchovies, mackerel, herring and salmon are good sources. If you aren’t a fish-eater, capsule supplements are available.

Take charge of your own health. Let our pharmacists be part of your health team. We would be happy to be your pharmacist.

Adrian Squinasstill missing

Williams Lake RCMP say they are still actively searching for Adrian Squinas, a 16-year-old First Nations youth who has been missing from his residence in Williams Lake since July 11.

Adrian is still believed to be in and around Wil-liams Lake; however, because he has no means of income or support, the RCMP are concerned for his safety and well being.

Adrian, who was born

on Nov. 27, 1995, is de-scribed as being 172 cen-timetres (about five feet, seven inches) tall, weigh-ing 56 kilograms (123 pounds), with black hair, brown eyes and a slight build. Adrian had gone missing earlier this year as well but was later lo-cated. The Williams Lake RCMP would encourage anyone who is aware of Adrian’s whereabouts to contact the detachment at 250-392-6211.

Some of you may recall this song that was popular in 1973.I remembered it the other day

as I was driving the Likely Road and had to swerve to avoid driving over the dead skunk lying almost on the centerline. Along with the song came many other memories, especially the stink of a skunk whether dead or alive. Having lived up north for many years, this distinctive smell had become foreign to me, and believe me, I did not miss encountering it�.I remember a young man who

saw a skunk for the �rst time in his life. He had no idea of the potential danger he was in as he decided to chase and catch this lovely looking animal. They are great looking animals, aren’t they, as they walk along so stately and proud? If you know nothing about them, you might have the urge to adopt them as pets.This young man approached the

skunk and when he got close, he noticed a pungent odour but never having experienced it before did not associate it with the wonderful animal before him. It was only after the skunk turned away from him and presented the ‘business end’ of the skunk towards the young man

that he became painfully aware of the danger.Some things in life are very

attractive, yet can be deadly. Rattle snakes belong in this category along with the skunk.In living life, many things attract

followers of Jesus as well. Some, like a rose, are wonderful to enjoy and experience. However, others, like poison ivy or a skunk or rattler, are things to avoid at all costs because they have the ability to do serious and sometimes deadly harm to a follower of Jesus.Like the skunk and the rattler, often

there are warning signs if you know what to look for and what these signs indicate. Most dangers that a Christ follower faces have a bit of a stench associated with them or have been reported as having devastating consequences even though they look and even are attractive. Ignoring these warnings leads to reaping the results. Unfortunately, many do ignore the warnings and end up dealing with the pain of the consequences, sometimes for the rest of their lives.How does a Christian recognize the

warning signs? Many instinctively (a God-given instinct) have a feeling of unease about doing certain things that are harmful. Others have seen the damage these things cause in the lives of believers. Still others have only heard of the dangers and the signs used to recognize the dangers.The most accurate way to

recognize the dangers is to be fully committed to God and following his will, reading his Word, listening to his Voice (Holy Spirit) within you. And then to obey.The young man was warned about

the danger of the skunk but ignored the advice. He paid dearly. Are you hearing the warnings?

SELL IT IN THE CLASSIFIEDS250-392-2331Distributor box catches fire

BY MONICA LAMB-YORSKITribune Staff Writer

A fire occurred in a customer-owned dis-tributor box for a series of trailers on Broadway Avenue North Wednes-day.

The Williams Lake Fire Department at-tended the scene around noon.

“The fire was com-ing from the power pole

down to the distribution box where each trailer would have its own cut off,” fire chief Randy Isfeld says. “It was en-ergized when we got there, but we managed to de-engergize it and eventually the breaker blew.”

BC Hydro’s commu-nications manager Dave Mosure says a switch burnt up. Hydro crews went out and made it

safe.Stormy weather in

and around Williams Lake on July 22 left several customers with-out power.

As temperatures rapidly rose, the wind picked up, dark clouds gathered, and there was lightning and thunder, resulting in 12.4 mili-metres of rain falling in less than an hour in Wil-liams Lake.

The dirt on organic produceBY SIMONE JENNINGSInterior Health

People often ask me if they should buy or-ganic fruits and veg-etables.

Some of the com-mon questions I get include: “Are organic foods better for you?” or “Are they worth the extra cost?” or

“I want to reduce my exposure to pesti-cides, which fruits and vegetables have the most residues?”

I always start by ensuring people that a diet high in plant-based foods has many health benefits includ-ing reduced risk of heart disease, cancer,

diabetes and other health problems.

The benefits of consuming adequate amounts of fruits and veggies outweigh the risk of pesticide expo-sure.

So regardless of whether you choose conventionally grown produce or organic, the main goal should be to get a minimum of seven to 10 serv-ings of fruits and veg-etables each day.

One serving equals one piece of fruit or vegetable or half a cup chopped.

However, if you are looking to reduce your exposure to pesticides and it’s within your

budget to purchase or-ganic then I think it’s worth it.

It’s even better if you can purchase your organic food from a local source.

Choosing local foods and buying or-ganic when possible supports a more sus-tainable food system and allows the indus-try to grow.

We are entering the time of year where lo-cal food is becoming abundant in our prov-ince so take advantage of your local farmers markets.

The thing I love about the farmers market is you can talk directly to the person

who grows your food. You can inquire

about their farming practices and use of pesticides (if any). Some foods tend to be more heavily treated as they are difficult to grow without getting bugs in them (if you have a cherry tree you probably know what I mean).

However, other fruits and vegetables tend to be more natu-rally bug free and re-quire little or no treat-ment.

You can significant-ly lower your pesti-cide intake by limiting the most contaminated produce (or buying them organic) and eat-

ing more of the least contaminated fruits and vegetables.

The Environmental Working Group has recently released the 2012 Shoppers Guide to Pesticide in Pro-duce.

The guide can help you determine which fruits and vegetables have the most pesti-cide residues.

It is important to consider this as a gen-eral guide, not a hard and fast rule, as pes-ticide levels on foods can vary depending on where and how they are grown.

The list was created based on studies done in the U.S. on local

and imported fruits and vegetables.

Nearly all of the studies tested produce after it had been rinsed or peeled.

To view the exten-sive list of foods and a downloadable shop-pers guide visit www.ewg .o rg / foodnews /summary/.

B.C.-wide metal theft law in effectCanada’s first pro-

vincial metal theft law and regulations come into effect Monday, July 23, with identi-fication and reporting requirements designed to limit the resale mar-ket for stolen assets and ensure thieves are identified and pros-ecuted.

Those wishing to sell regulated metals on or after that date must present valid identification.

In turn, scrap deal-

ers and recyclers who buy these metals will share purchase details with their local po-lice.

Officers will be able to use this information to compare against re-ports of stolen metal and seek court orders to obtain further infor-mation from dealers when required.

In May, the govern-ment wrote to mu-nicipalities that have me ta l - the f t - r e l a t ed bylaws, asking them

to ensure their rules do not conflict with the new provincial ones.

This followed con-sultation conducted in part to ensure the lo-cal and provincial ap-proaches would work together.

Metal thefts fre-quently endanger public safety, most notably by disrupting phone lines and access to 911 emergency ser-vice.

In recent years, high scrap prices have

driven thefts with a total value in the tens of millions of dollars from utilities like Te-lus and BC Hydro, many other businesses and Lower Mainland municipalities.

The provincial regu-lations focus on metal types and objects his-torically targeted by

thieves, ranging from copper telephone wire and plumbing to man-hole covers and metal grave markers.

Purchasers who fail to register with the Province and fulfil record-keeping and sharing requirements risk fines of up to $100,000.

Are you seeing or-ange? It’s that time of year again. Roadways, lawns and pastures throughout the Cariboo Chilcotin have turned a bright shade of orange due to blooming Orange Hawkweed. Hawk-weed was alleged to be introduced to North America from its native home in Europe. The ancient Greeks believed it gave the hawks that fed on it keen eyesight.

The colour of this plant’s flower is what makes it stand out from every other plant. They are brilliant red-orange colours that grow in clusters at the top of leafless stems. The en-tire stem and leaves are covered in small, stiff, black hairs.

Orange Hawkweed has the ability to estab-lish quickly by seed, above ground stems (stolons), and below ground stems (rhi-zomes), allowing it to form dense patches that displace native vegeta-tion.

Each flowering stem can be self-pollinated and may produce sev-eral hundred seeds. These seeds are spread

by wind, water, and hu-man activities. Once the seeds have sprouted, Hawkweed spreads rapidly by the above ground stems which produce new plants that form a dense mat of ro-settes.

Early detection of these plants is critical. Once they form a large colony in an area they can be extremely dif-ficult to control. Me-chanical control of this plant is limited. Small

patches can be dug up, making sure all parts of the root are removed. The smallest fragment left behind can sprout a new plant.

Therefore, repetition of this method may be necessary for the fol-lowing years. Mowing of this plant may stop seed production but strongly encourages vegetative growth and is not advised.

Fertilization with a blend that contains

higher amounts of sul-phur or nitrogen has proven effective if the infestation is sparse to moderate.

Hawkweed tends to prefer soils that are de-ficient in both nitrogen and sulphur. Fertiliza-tion in general promotes a healthy desirable plant community that will re-sist invasive plant inva-sion. If the infestation is large and quite dense, the judicial use of her-bicides can effectively control Hawkweed.

Look for herbicides containing active in-gredients including Picloram, 2-4-D, Di-camba, Aminopyralid, or Clopyralid, but al-ways remember to read the label before using and always follow the instructions for applica-tion.

If you have any ques-tions or concerns about Orange Hawkweed or need some assistance in identification or man-agement, please con-tact the CRD’s Invasive Plant Management de-partment at 250-392-3351 or toll free at 1-800-665-1636 or visit the CRD website at car-iboord.bc.ca.

Bogus advance fee loan company uses online

classifieds to target victimsBetter Business Bu-

reau (BBB) is warn-ing consumers about a loan scheme targeting residents across Canada through online classified ads promising personal and business loans up to $100,000.

“In a market where credit is tightening, consumers will look to these unregistered loan companies who are only interested in collect-ing fees,” says Danielle Primrose, president and CEO of Better Busi-ness Bureau of Main-land British Columbia. “Offers that practically guarantee loan approval are usually too good to be true.”

Global Financial Ser-vices purports to be at 600-666 Burrard St. in Vancouver, but there is no licenced or incorpo-rated company at that address. Consumers who found the Global Financial Services ad on the online classified, vancouver.backpages.com (and other Cana-dian city backpages.com sites) believed that they found a local company offering loans.

The company con-ducts most of its busi-

ness through e-mail, including sending its contract for an advance fee loan. A consumer reported paying an ad-vance fee of $216 to “cover transfer, insur-ance and underwriter’s fee” to Global Financial Services. The company provided a loan agree-ment, which offered to lend $10,600 to the consumer. The con-sumer was instructed to send the fee through wire transfer services. The wire transfer record shows that the money may have been trans-ferred to a Montreal, Que. address. The con-sumer did not receive the loan.

The Better Business Bureau offers the fol-lowing points to con-sider before responding to ads promising guar-anteed loans:

• Stay away from ad-vance fee loan compa-nies. It is illegal for a company to charge a fee in advance to obtain a loan, even if that fee is disguised as the first or last month’s payment, security, or insurance. Victims of advance fee loan schemes who have sent money to process a

loan have not received the loan as promised. Al-though legitimate lend-ers may charge a fee, the fee is deducted from the loan amount. You should never have to pay a fee in order to obtain or ap-ply for financing.

• Be cautious about online loan offers. Bo-gus loan brokers are out there posing as legiti-mate ones and using on-line classifieds because these scammers can post anonymously. Legiti-mate loan brokers would not guarantee any quali-fication for a loan before reviewing your financial history.

• Do your homework. Protect yourself by do-ing your research and taking precaution with whom and how you give your personal and finan-cial information. Check with the Better Business Bureau first at www.mbc.bbb.org by looking up the company’s busi-ness review, or call and ask to look into the com-pany.

• Don’t be pressured to act immediately. Loan scams will always use terms like this offer for a limited time only or the phone calls will have

high pressure tactics. Don’t allow yourself to be bullied into provid-ing your information or payment.

• Avoid giving out personal information. Advance fee loans not only aim to profit from financially vulner-able consumers, these schemes often ask for sensitive personal infor-mation like Social Insur-ance Numbers, driver’s licence numbers, and possibly banking ac-count information. Do not provide this infor-mation unless you are certain you are dealing with a legitimate com-pany.

• Report the crime. The Better Business Bureau strongly urges individu-als to report any suspect-ed fraudulent schemes to their local police or to Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501. Victims of bogus loan brokers are encour-aged to file a complaint with the BBB. While the chance of recovering the payment fee is minimal, victims can provide in-formation to help BBB warn consumers and as-sist government investi-gations.

We have a tack shed in the middle of our

sheep meadow, which is just slightly less odd than a shark tank in the middle of a des-ert.

It’s a healthy 200 metres from our house and a good 100 metres (and a ditch and three gates) from the horse pasture. One could say its location is a tad impractical. After all, a tack shed holds tack, horse tack — saddles, bridles and halters along with all the brushes, combs and blankets. And yet there it sits way out in the sheep meadow. We don’t ride the sheep, so why is it there? I blame calendars.

The shed is small with a hip roof making it look like a miniature barn. In what is now our sheep meadow once stood a gorgeous diamond willow. When we moved here we brought the shed from our previous property. I looked at the willow and pictured its branches draped over the roof. It would look gorgeous; a picture-perfect scene straight out of a cal-endar. Most likely Janu-ary. I could already see the hoar frost icing the wil-low branches and the roof tucked under a thick frosting of snow. Can you picture it? Sure you can. And you know why? Because you have a calendar.

There were plenty of de-tractors that tried to reason with me but I was fixated and firm. A little walking and inconvenience never hurt anybody. I was a lot younger. Some terrain and navigational difficulties

resulted in the shed being parked several feet from the tree. This was unfortunate, but if you stood at just the right angle and squinted one eye you could imagine the willow branches draped over the roof. We put the horses in the meadow, their tack in the shed and all was right with the world. And then we got the goats.

The meadow was small, barely two acres and fenced with page wire. The horses loved to lean over the page wire to see if the rumour was true; was the grass re-ally greener? Their experi-menting left impressions up and down the fence line like a ripple potato chip. We fenced in 10 acres across the road with barbwire, moved the horses over there and put the goats in the horse’s for-mer digs. And then the goats ate the willow tree. Well they didn’t scarf it down like a hotdog, but they nibbled all the bark off around its trunk, killing it by what is known in forestry circles as “girdling.”

For a few years things still looked picturesque in the winter with the snow on the

shed and frost coating the branches of the dead tree. Over time the willow trunk and branches turned dark sil-ver and held a certain beauty and grace in its demise. And then we got some sheep. The sheep are Icelandic and have heavy curved horns, which they love to rub on every-thing, including dead willow trees. Last year a large por-tion of the tree toppled into a heap. You don’t see that kind of thing on the pages of a calendar. Not even in No-

vember. So there sits my fol-ly in the field. They say it’s all about location, location, location. I finally admit it; the shed is in a bad location, bad location, bad location. Every once in a while we talk about moving the shed, but logistics get in the way. The skids are rotting, we’d have to take down the fence and we’d likely squash more than a few of the shrubs and trees that have been planted along the fence line since we moved here. Bad enough we

killed the poor willow. And the shed is almost 15 years older than it was when we moved it here. I don’t know what that works out to in shed years, but chances are good it might not hold up to being dragged over a bumpy pasture and then what? We’d have a heap of shed next to our heap of willow branch-es. You definitely won’t see that in a calendar any month soon. Between my garden, animals, work, projects and other commitments I’ve

been so busy I don’t know if I found a rope or lost my horse. However, this after-noon I am determined to get down to the shed to at least clean up the fallen willow and prepare to cremate its final remains. I just need to find my hiking boots … and perhaps pack a snack.

Debbie and Dave Altherr perform today at Boitanio Park market

Ranchers with a pas-sion for music Debbie Altherr and her hus-band Dave will be per-forming at the Farmer’s Market in Boitanio Park today, Friday, July 27.

They will give two half-hour concerts, one at 10 a.m. and the other at noon and play music from Debbie’s new CD throughout the day.

Debbie has been busy over the past cou-ple of years writing and recording songs and recently released her first CD called Allison Altherr Casitaville.

She chose to use her middle name on the CD because she was meet-ing so many Debbies in her musical travels that it became confusing.

Casita means little home or cottage in Spanish.

“Casitaville is my name for the little gypsy trailer I ‘home-steaded’ in backyards, on city streets, in fields and even the occasional gravel pit,” Debbie ex-plains on the CD cover. “It’s the nest I occupied while on adventure travelling from British Columbia to Arizona, exploring the differ-ent genres of music I love. To me Casitaville defines home, free-

dom, euphoria and the state of mind in which I found my passion for songwriting.

“Life in Casitaville afforded me the time to reflect and weave the varied chapters of my life into the lines of songs. This album, is a collection of some of those songs along with a few old favourites.”

The songs are a lit-tle bit country and a little bit blues, but all

in a lovely clear vocal range.

Debbie says she worked hard to make sure every sound came across in the recordings as she needed them to be.

Debbie and Dave had a ranch in the Chilco-tin for many years and are now sharing their time between winters in Arizona and a small-er ranch at McLeese Lake.

Debbie trains herding dogs for ranchers using her own sheep and also uses fibre from sheep, goats, dogs and even horses to incorporate into her fibre art, which includes creating unique felt hangings and felt boots. Many of her fibre art pieces portray the flora and fauna of regions where she has resided over the years from the Arctic to southern Arizona.

Please note, the performance date listed in the Thurs-day, July 26 edition of the Tribune for Debbie and Dave Altherr’s concert was incorrect. The concert is today, Friday, July 27 at the Farmer’s Market in Boitanio Park. They will give two half-hour live shows at 10 a.m. and again at noon, and also have music from Debbie’s new CD playing dur-ing the market. Deb-bie is pictured at left visiting with friends behind the chutes at this year’s Williams Lake Stampede.

TIPS FROM THE CRD

Clothes Dryer Appliance & Venting Maintenance

Excerpts from the BC Safety Authority website

A dryer and the attached vent system require regular cleaning and maintenance. Lack of such regular cleaning and maintenance has been identified as causing fires. Improper dryer venting also poses a carbon monoxide risk on gas supplied dryers. The dryer vent system removes moisture and the gas by-products from your appliance to the outdoors.When a dryer/venting system is clogged with lint, air flow is restricted, your dryer then has to work harder which leads to overheating. As the dryer ducts remove lint and moisture from clothes, not all of the lint is captured by the screen or makes it to the outdoors; this builds up on the sides of the vent system and eventually dries to a hard material. This material attracts more lint, where it eventually creates a restriction that leads to overheating, potentially resulting in a fire.It is recommended that dryers and all fuel burning appliances are maintained or serviced on an annual basis at least, or as per the Certified Appliance instructions by a Licensed, Qualified Gas Contractor. To find a local contractor in your area please visit our website at: www.safetyauthority.ca.

BC waterski championships this weekendChimney Lake will

be the site of the B.C Water Ski Provincials taking place on July 28 and 29.

Parnell Pinette, an or-ganizer and competitor, says roughly 50 people from as far north as Prince George and as far south as Vancouver Island are competing.

Locals include Par-nell, his 12-year-old son Conley, Brian Doering, and Brent Graham. Age categories range from boys and girls up to men and women over 35.

The event, organized by the Pinettes and B.C. Water Ski Provincials, received a $2,500 grant earlier this year from the Ministry of Com-munity, Sport, and Cul-tural Development’s Hosting B.C. program and further funding from several other local sponsors.

“What that does is helps us bring all of our stuff up to the calibre it needs to be, to be a sanctioned event,” Par-nell says.

All of the events take skill, and maybe a little luck, too.

For example, Parnell says that in the slalom ski event, there is a six-buoy course, and each time a competitor is successful through the course, the speed in-creases.

“Eventually, they start to shorten the rope each time,” he says. “It gets harder and harder to get through … until you fall.”

Conley, who has been waterskiing for the last five years, has moved up to the under-14 age division, setting a new Canadian record for the under 14 boys jump in the Can-am in Blaine,

WA.His distance was 117

feet, beating the previ-ous record of 113 feet.

And he came home with a gold metal, so he is off to a good start heading into the B.C. Water Ski Provincials at Chimney Lake.

Two weeks after that, he will head to the Ca-nadian Nationals in Cal-gary.

Two weeks after that, he will compete in Saint Louis for the Canadian U14 team.

And then he will head to Florida for the Pan American Water Ski Championships for the Canadian team.

The B.C. Water Ski Provincials takes place on the east end of Chimney Lake. The community is welcome to attend and watch the competitors ski for a win.

Many people in the Cariboo know Ross Douglas for his nine years as musical director, actor and songwriter at Theatre Royal in Barkerville.

During that time Ross also wrote some of the most poignant, funny and honest songs about life in the community of Wells and the Cariboo in general. His songs may be set in the recent past or the present, but they still carry a timeless mes-sage.

To the rest of the world Ross Douglas lives in Vancouver, has produced three independent CDs, acted, wrote and sang in such hits as Billy Bishop Goes To War, Angry Housewives, Rocky Hor-ror Show and more. In addition, he’s won in-ternational awards for his jazz, folk, and roots song-writing skills, and has fans in 115 countries around the world.

The Bear’s Paw Cafe will host Ross Douglas for what has become his annual visit to Wells, on Saturday, July 28 at 7:30 p.m. at the outdoor stage. His live shows are a fab-ulous blend of a wide va-riety of musical genres. They are played on an equally varied collection of musical instruments, from keyboard to man-dolin. In addition, he in-terjects history, comedy, and theatre in a show that is guaranteed to please crowds.

Ross is promising to play a wide selection of his Cariboo favourites, including the gold stan-dard of song-writing ... Wells, from his second album Cariboo Eclectic.

This song describes Wells in its heyday in the 1930s. The lyric: “I’d rather be a miner with a smell, than a disinfected hobo begging nickels in Quesnel,” is just part of a tender and romantic bal-lad, written to describe the heyday of Wells dur-ing the Dirty 30s. Ko-kanee Canary Canoe, a Gold Award and Grand Jury winner in the 25th annual Mid-Atlantic Song Contest is another tune that is actually in-spired by a fishing trip on Bowron Lakes.

Ross’s third album, The Art of You and I, has received more airplay around the world and

features even more songs about life and Ross’s own varied experience, including the folk/coun-try feel-good hit Love.

Dave Jorgenson, owner of the Bear’s Paw notes: “We’re thrilled to have Ross returning to our venue.

“It doesn’t really mat-ter whether it’s a song with local flavour or any other tune, Ross’s crafts-

manship and shownman-ship bulge out from his performances, and really make his performances special.”

The Bear’s Paw Cafe, in Wells, hosts a variety of musical and theatri-cal events throughout the year.

The Ross Douglas show is just part of a one-week performance series that also features Linda

McRae on Thursday, Aug. 2, and four days of music as one of the open venues for Artswells Mu-sic Festival starting on Friday, Aug. 3.

To enjoy what is bound to be another great night in the Bear’s Paw concert season on Saturday, July 28, phone 1-866-994-2345 to make a reserva-tion or get more informa-tion.

Quirky characters at festivalDean Bareham, artistic director of Green Fools The-atre, offered up various personas throughout his stint as the mas-ter of ceremonies during Saturday evening’s concert at the 13th annual Discovery Coast Music Festival in Bella Coola, July 21 and 22.

Community gardenground breaking saturday

MIChelleDAyMoND Special to The Tribune

Join the Williams Lake Food Policy Council, in partner-ship with the Cariboo Chilcotin Child De-velopment Centre, on Saturday, July 28 in breaking ground on the new Memory Gar-den Community Gar-den site.

It has been years in the making, but we are now ready to start building the gar-den. The Williams Lake Food Policy Council partnered with the leadership class at Williams Lake Senior Secondary School, and came up with the plan to create a large com-munity garden near the school.

The WLSS students have named the com-munity garden space The Memory Garden.

“The WL leader-ship students wanted to make a difference in the community,” states teacher Dena Baumann, “in memory of people they had lost that had inspired and made a difference in their lives.”

The Memory Garden Community Garden space is 25,000-square feet and therefore will be large enough to in-corporate a variety of features to demonstrate

methods of growing food in our region.

“At present, the plans for the space in-clude over 50 individ-ual raised-bed garden plots, two greenhous-es, a community com-post centre, commu-nity root cellar, public access fruit trees and berry bushes and xe-riscape garden” says Cody Slinn, food ac-tion co-ordinator.

Over the years, the Food Policy Council has created an exten-sive network of vol-unteers, local busi-nesses, schools, and non-profits, and has built strong partner-ships with the Cari-boo Chilcotin Child Development Centre, the City of Williams Lake, the Cariboo Re-gional District, Interi-or Health, Thompson-Nicola United Way, the Williams Lake and District Credit Union and our local media.

It is thanks to all these individuals, organiza-tions and businesses that the Memory Gar-den Community Gar-den is breaking ground this month.

Organizers invite everyone to attend the ground-breaking work party on Saturday, July 28, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Come ready to dig in, lend a hand, or meet other people interested

in local food. There will be jobs

for all ages and skill levels, so bring your family and start plant-ing the seeds for local food production in our city.

The official ground-

breaking ceremony will be at noon and the Food Policy Council is sponsoring a free, lo-cal food lunch for all volunteers.

Anyone wanting more information or to RSVP for the upcom-

ing work party can con-tact Food Action Co-ordinator Cody Slinn at 250-392-0294. 1050 S. Mackenzie Ave. 250-392-6282

Military vehicle historical convoy to visit lakecityWestern Command

Military Vehicle His-torical Society (WC-MVHS) supported by Veterans Affairs will be convoying with ap-proximately 20 per-sonnel and 10 to 15 vehicles from the Van-couver and Edmonton areas to Fairbanks this summer between July 27 and Aug. 19 says

convoy co-ordinator John Hawthorne.

“Our goals are to raise public awareness and remembrance of our veterans as well as to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Alaska Highway,” Hawthorne says.

“We plan to visit several legions and communities along our

route from Vancouver by displaying our old vehicles and equipment to the veterans and gen-eral public.”

He says legions to be visited include Ashcroft, Clinton, 100 Mile House, Williams Lake, Quesnel, Prince George, Chetwynd, Dawson Creek, Fort St John, Whitehorse and

Delta. Several other communities include Fort Nelson, Muncho Lake, Watson Lake, Teslin, Haines Junc-tion, Beaver Creek, Delta Junction, and Fairbanks.

He say the club has had extensive convoy experience over the past several years visit-ing legions in commu-

nities from the interior of B.C., Vancouver Is-land and Washington State.

Western Command is not part of the much larger U.S.-led Military Vehicle Preservation Society (MVPA) Con-voy that will be depart-ing from Dawson Creek on Aug. 4, Hawthorne says.

Art route program provides exposure for artistsArtists in the region

have a new and ex-citing opportunity to become part of devel-oping a new Central Cariboo Art Route, says Leah Selk, Cen-tral Cariboo Arts and Culture Society co-ordinator.

The project is spon-sored by the arts and culture society with the support of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tour-ism Association and the Cariboo Regional District, Selk says. It

is supported financial-ly by the Community Tourism Opportuni-ties (CTO) program under the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and In-novation.

Participation is open to artists living in the Central Cariboo areas of Williams Lake and Cariboo Regional Dis-trict areas D, E, and F and who are willing to open up part of their home or a building on their property to display their art and

practice.“The Central Cari-

boo Art Route is an opportunity to devel-op the arts sector and showcase the region’s artists and artisans,” Selk says.

“Through a year-round, self-guided tour, locals and visi-tors alike will have the chance to connect with artists at work and gain a deeper sense of their practice.”

She says the program is designed to provide

increased market ex-posure and revenue generated for local artists through direct sales and/or post-visit shipping orders, along with increased visits and sales to local gal-leries and cafes, has the potential to trans-form our resource de-pendent economy to a diversified economy, rich in artistic talent.

Non-profit and busi-ness participation, also located within the Central Cariboo, is

Reflective address signs aid first respondersThe Williams Lake

Lions Club is teaming up with local area fire departments to pro-mote and sell reflec-tive address signs that will make it easier for emergency personnel to find homes in emer-gencies.

In an emergency when every second counts, firefighters, police or medical emergency services may lose critical time if they cannot locate your home, explains the Lions Club appli-cation form.

Despite recent ad-vances in technology and improvements in 911 emergency dis-patch systems, there is a marked difference for emergency person-nel in being directed to an address and actu-ally locating the resi-

dence. In an emergency,

time lost trying to lo-cate the correct drive-way can have a tragic result. You can help assure that you re-ceive emergency as-sistance in the short-est possible time by properly displaying large highly reflective house numbers.

Signs that are not reflective or right be-side the road may not be seen, especially at night or in bad weath-er conditions.

The Lions Club has arranged to supply the reflective signs at a cost of $15 for a sin-gle-sided sign and $25 for double-sided sign. The signs are eight inches high by 16 inches wide and made of engineer-grade alu-minum with five-inch,

high black numbers on a white, highly reflec-tive background.

These signs are quite easily seen in the day-time and at night, as well as during adverse weather conditions.

Purchase applica-tions for the signs are available at Clarke’s General Store in Horsefly, 150 Mile House Husky Lotto Centre, and Valley General Store in Like-ly.

In Williams Lake the signs can be pur-

chased at Burgess Plumbing, Cool Clear Water, Schickworks and SpeedPro Signs. Applications must be made by Sept. 15 with cheques made payable to the Williams Lake Lions Club. Signs should be ready for distribution by the end of September and the Lions Club will con-tact purchasers to ar-range for pick-up and arrange to help with installing the signs if assistance is needed.

Proceeds from the

sign venture will be shared equally be-tween the Williams Lake Lions Club and local volunteer fire departments.

The reflective signs should be placed in the yard at the end of the driveway, high enough to be above snow in winter and

weeds in summer, and far enough back from the main road not to be hit by a snowplow or obscured by thrown snow or mud. The signs should be placed in locations clearly visible from a distance of 50 meters.

More information is available on the sign

application forms.People who have

questions about the program or need as-sistance installing the signs can call Lions Bob or Eleanor Donk-er 250-620-0503, Lion Lional Burnier 250-398-5297 or your lo-cal volunteer fire de-partment.

This attractive two-storey home features a ground-floor entry and would be ideal for a family with active young children. The main living area is next to the kitchen and on the same level as the bedrooms, making it easy to keep an eye on the youngsters. A large unfinished area in the basement would

make an excellent play room, or could be developed into a self-contained suite, while the den adjacent to the foyer would make a convenient home office. Upstairs, the large great room with its vaulted

ceiling and fireplace feature wall makes the perfect setting for watching television, reading and visiting with friends. A railing along the side of the great room provides views to the foyer below. The adjoining kitchen and dining area feature an

optional buffet and a large work island with an eating bar. Sliding glass doors open to a sundeck with plenty of room for patio furniture and a barbecue. The master bedroom includes a three-piece

ensuite and a bayed window with a wide sill that could be used as a window seat. Two additional bedrooms at the front of the house share the main three-piece bathroom. A closet for linen is situated just outside this bathroom. A coat closet and laundry facilities are located on

the ground floor.

The exterior of this home is enhanced by decorative windows, wood trim and an attractive peaked roof. The appealing porch entry will be even more charming with the addition of all-weather furniture, seasonal planters and hanging baskets. This home measures 38 feet, 6 inches wide by

40 feet deep, for a total of 1,099 square feet of finished living space on the main floor, plus a partially completed basement. Plans for design 2-3-717 are available for $490

Robert Douglas MacKenzie passed away on July 16, 2012. Bob was born November 5, 1933 in Langley, BC and grew up working on his family farm as well as other local farms until he became a Millwright and worked in local sawmills and the logging industry. After running his own welding and auto businesses in Fort Langley he had mastered his knack for being able to fi x anything with nothing and still have materials left over for the next job, Bob and his wife Anne developed a love for American Shetland ponies, as well as cart and harness making.

Bob and Anne moved to the Interior where Bob spent most of his adult life ranching, mechanicing, farming and leather making in the Williams Lake area at Riske Creek, as well as the Armstrong and Enderby areas. Through 42 years of marriage Bob and Anne were apart no more than a dozen days or so and were inseparable partners until Anne passed away in 2006.

Bob was a wonderful lifelong friend to many. Bob had a huge heart and a very kind spirit. He was always looking for ways to help others. He will be greatly missed by his many friends and his family Mike and Jessie Wallis, but can now rest in peace with his beloved wife, Anne, whom he never stopped missing.

A memorial service will be held in Armstrong on August 25, 2012 at 2:00 pm at the Odd Fellows Hall.In lieu of fl owers, please send donations to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Condolences may be expressed at www.schoenings.com

Cremation entrusted to Schoening Funeral Service, Kamloops, 250-374-1454.

Robert MacKenzie1933 - 2012

It is with sadness that the families of Bill announce his passing, at the age of 81, at the Williams Lake Seniors Village.

Born in Ellscott, Alberta, Bill worked many years at Gibraltar Mines before retiring in 1996. He spent his retirement years in Horsefl y, in great peace, with his wife Marjorie. Together they travelled in their trailer and sailed on numerous cruises,

exploring life together while ensuring unbreakable bonds with their families - the Redekopps, McIntyres and Molzahns. It will remain typically romantic that Bill passed only nine short days after his beloved wife, Marj.

Bill was pre-deceased by his sister Elsa, brother Richard, wife Marjorie, son Daniel, step-son Darren and daughter-in-law Joanne. He leaves behind a long list of adoring family and friends including many grandchildren and great grandchildren.

At his request no Service will be planned. For those wishing to honour Bill’s memory, donations may be made to the Williams Lake S.P.C.A., or the charity of your choice.

IfIf you can keep your head when all about youAre losing theirs and blaming it on you,If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,But make allowance for their doubting too;If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make your dreams your master;If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;If you can meet with Triumph and DisasterAnd treat those two imposters just the same;If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spokenTwisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,And stoop and build ‘em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winningsAnd risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,And lose, and start again at your beginningsAnd never breath a word about your loss;If you can force your heart and nerve and sinewTo serve your turn long after they are gone,And so hold on when there is nothing in youExcept the Will which says to them “Hold on!”

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,‘Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,If all men count with you, but none too much;If you can fi ll the unforgiving minuteWith sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,And - which is more - you’ll be a Man, my son. Kipling
