Ashcroft Council voted down the notion of a paved walking track along Evans Road at the Apr. 13 meeting, at the same time acknowledging that the road is barely wide enough for the trucks currently using it.
“There are a numb number of things that need to happen in order to have a proper walkway,” said Mayor Jack Jeyes, who is also a retired Min-istry of Transportation manager.
There is no consistent shoulder width, he pointed out. “People think there’s enough room but it’s actually quite narrow.”
Fencing would need to line the riv-er side of the walkway and between that and the cement barricades, there would barely be enough room to walk: in some places there would be no room
to walk.“The costing for something like this
is beyond us to build it the way the Vil-lage would be required to build it,” he said.
“We expect a road that there will be trucks on,” said Coun. Alf Trill. “We want it to be an industrial road but I look at it and I see a road leading to a farm. We want a road worthy of indus-try.
“I think we’re doing it an injus-tice if we just pave what’s there,” said Trill. “My concern is, is the road wide enough for traf� c?”
If it’s wide enough for traf� c, he said, the pedestrians would take care of themselves.
Parts of the land next to the road just drop off suddenly several metres leav-
ing nothing for a walkway, said Coun. Barbara Roden. So, to build a pathway would require engineered drawings and fees.
“It is somewhat inadequate as an industrial road,” said Coun. Al Mer-tens, “yet we’re going to have it resur-faced (this summer), leaving us with the same substandard road. Where does that leave the village?”
“It was built to the standards of the day,” said Mayor Jeyes. They are still the standards. Will the asphalt last for 40 years? Probably not.”
He said the resurfacing does not count as making improvements to the road, and it can still be altered at a later date if the money becomes available
Coun. Roden said the resurfacing will help traf� c avoid the potholes.
Ashcroft votes against Evans Rd. walking trail
A 45 year old Fraser Lake man was the vic-tim of a fatal accident on Hwy 1 in Cache Creek on Saturday morning.
At 5:15 am on Apr. 11, RCMP were called to the scene on the east side of town near the en-trance to the golf course and just beyond where the speed limit changes to 100 kph. The man ap-peared to have been hitchhiking and was in the eastbound driving lane when he was struck and killed by an eastbound Ford F350 driven by a 51 year old Lone Butte man. It is speculated that he died on impact.
The matter is still under investigation and the victim’s name has not been released. An ac-cident reconstructionist was brought in to look at the scene and RCMP are waiting for his re-port, and also that of the Coroner’s of� ce.
Ashcroft Council voted to put together a Se-lect Committee of Council to investigate the proposal for a new family use area and dog park and determine the overall costs.
Council made the decision at its Apr. 13 meeting after checking with other communities to see how their dog parks or mixed use facili-ties were doing.
Forming the public committee “doesn’t commit council to anything,” said Ashcroft Mayor Jack Jeyes.
It only means that the Village is going to look into it, he said.
“Council appreciates the presentation (made to Council to March 23) but was concerned about where it was proposed,” he said. “We’ve already lost a baseball � eld to soccer and only have one left.
Jeyes said there are other issues that need to be studied. He added that all of the municipal-ities contacted advised against putting a hard surfaced track in a dog park.
Administrator Michelle Allen told council-lors that a Select Committee of Council would � rst establish terms of reference regarding how they would operate and what they would inves-tigate, and then they can look at different op-tions and what the costs would be.

Ashcroft to discuss Canada Day funding optionsAshcroft Council defeated a mo-
tion to give Winding Rivers Arts & Per-formance Society a $500 grant in aid... so that they could vote instead to meet with the group and discuss their plans and financial needs for a better funding strategy.
According to staff, WRAPS re-ceived a $500 grant in aid last year for the Canada Day celebrations. In addi-tion, donations of staff time and free pool time add up to about $700.
WRAPS asked for the funding at a prior meeting, adding that they didn’t look at the funding as a grant in aid, but
as assistance for putting on an event for the town. The group is also hoping to access a $500 grant in aid fro the Vil-lage for its upcoming theatrical produc-tion, but Village policy states that non-profit groups can only apply for one grant in aid per year.
Administrator Michelle Allen told Council that the actual cost of the event while the Village was hosting it would cost between $2-3,000. However, the Lions and Rotary clubs helped out with donations and subsidized food, and the Village absorbed cost of pool and staff wages. Allen added that the Village
never paid for performers while it was overseeig the event.
“They feel like they’ve taken on the Canada Day celebration on behalf of the Village,” said Coun. Al Mertens.
Mayor Jack Jeyes said the policy states that if the Village grants money to a group, it is a grant in aid, and the policy says the same group can’t get more than one grant in a year.
Councillors voted against a mo-tion to give WRAPS a $500 grant in aid and accepted another that asked them to come and discuss what they needed and how the Village could help.

Ashcroft plant swap held this Sunday
Cadets Casey Kent (left) of 136 Amphion RCSCC in Nanaimo and Ian Curran of 347 Avenger RCSCC in Ashcroft are presented the First Place Goulding Cup by Mr. John Jenkins of the Conway Society for taking the top spot in the National Qualifying Regatta.
Fred Gerwein (right) and John Farmer come away from last year’s Ashcroft CiB plant swap with potloads of goodies for the yard. The Ashcroft Communities in Bloom annual Plant Swap always attracts a great selection of outdoor plants - and gardeners.
Local sea cadet headed for national competitionCadet Ian Curran will
be one of eight competitors representing BC in Kingston this summer.
Cadet Curran of 347 Avenger Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps (RCSCC) in Ashcroft will be heading to Kingston, ON this sum-mer to compete in the Na-tional Sea Cadet Regatta af-ter placing first in the 40th Annual National Qualifying Regatta (NQR) held in Vic-toria April 3-5.
Twenty cadets from vari-ous locations throughout BC competed in teams of two
during the three-day selec-tion camp and regatta. These cadets all qualified for the NQR by sailing at the Prov-incial Qualifying Regatta, held last October in Esqui-malt. The goal of the Nation-al Qualifying Regatta is to select the eight strongest ca-det sailors to form the Pacif-ic National Team.
Curran will be sailing with skip Casey Kent from 136 Amphion RCSCC in Nanaimo.
“I feel we have a strong team for the national regatta this year,” said Lt (N) Tracy
Terry, Water Operations Of-ficer for the Cadet Program in B.C. “These top sailors have a drive to win, know the racing rules of sailing, are committed to practicing and can work together in a team environment to sail the boat fast in a variety of wind conditions.”
The NQR was held in partnership with the Roy-al Victoria Yacht Club (RVi-cYC), which offers tremen-dous benefits for both the staff and cadets. They are given the opportunity to learn from expert coaches
on the water and afterwards with daily debriefs.
“The Cadet Sailing Pro-gram runs in line with the Royal Victoria Yacht Club goals to bring together com-petitors from all parts of Western Canada to train together to develop ra-cing, race management and coaching skills, sportsman-ship and friendship,” said RVicYC head coach Steve McBride. “Every cadet who competed this weekend has an increased connection to sailing as a sport for life.”
Spring arrived early this year and as a re-sult, many yards around town are showing lots of colour already. Ashcroft’s annual Commun-ities in Bloom Plant Swap is coming up soon so now is your chance to split any perennials or shrubs you have too many of and bring them to the swap.
This year’s Plant Swap will be held on Sun-day, April 26 in Heritage Park. Because this is a plant swap, the success will depend on the quantity of plants that local residents bring in. Remember that you don’t have to bring some-thing to take something; it is open to everyone and a great opportunity to get more plants for your yard.
With that in mind, the Ashcroft Commun-ities in Bloom committee asks that local resi-dents take a little time to look around in their yards and split as many items as possible. Please try to pot them or place them in boxes – labels are great but not required.
Please bring any plants etc. to swap at 9:30am. The sale will begin at 10. No Early Birds!
Communities in Bloom thankfully accepts donations at the plant swap. All donations are used to assist with local projects.

An elderly Kamloops couple are lucky to be alive after their Ford Crown Victoria went off the road on Hwy 1 by the Perry Ranch on Fri-day afternoon.
RCMP were called to the single vehicle ac-cident around 12:30 pm on Apr. 10 after the car went off road to the right, rolled down an em-bankment and sheared off a power pole.
It is suspected that the 83 year old driv-er either fell asleep or lost consciousness while driving. He and his 81 year old wife were trans-ported to the hospital for treatment. He was treated for bruises and released; his wife is still in the hospital recovering from broken bones.
BC Hydro was called to come and replace their pole.

New incentive for rural med students
The Ministry of Health and Doctors of BC are strengthening their efforts to attract more doctors to rural and remote communities with a new shared $100,000 financial award for medic-al students who demonstrate an interest in prac-tising medicine in those communities and to support rural students entering medical school.
The first set of British Columbia Rural In-terest Awards have been granted to 20 Univer-sity of British Columbia medical students who come from a variety of rural communities or have demonstrated an interest in entering rural medicine once training is complete. Annually, up to 20 medical students will be given individ-ual awards of $5,000 to support their pursuit of practising rural medicine.
“We know that students who train in rural communities are more likely to consider practi-cing rural medicine,” said Dr. Bill Cavers, presi-dent of Doctors of BC.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A FRUIT ORCHARD STANDS IN TIDY ROWS at Horstings Farm
Dear Editor“The Press, Watson, is a most
valuable institution if you only know how to use it.”
So said Sherlock Holmes (via his creator Arthur Conan Doyle) in the 1893 short story The Final Problem; and both Holmes and Conan Doyle were quite right. The Press - or newspapers, in this case - can be very valuable indeed, espe-cially when seeking information.
Last week I asked, via this paper’s Letters column, for help in solving what was, to me, a mystery; and myriad Journal readers were willing and able to supply an an-swer.
My question was about a now vacant patch of land to the west of Hwy 97C as one comes off the Ashcroft bridge; a vacant patch of land that somehow sports a neat row of lilac bushes. I had wondered for some time why the lilacs were there, and recently came into pos-session of a postcard from c. 1965
that shows a building on the spot. I asked what might have been there in years gone by, and Journal read-ers came through in magnificent fashion.
Thanks to Chuck Winslow, Es-ther Darlington MacDonald, Mi-chelle Allen, Murray Abram, Lou-ise McKague, Terry Daniels,
Kathleen Cordell, Fergus Joslin, and Al Midgeley, all of whom were in touch with me to
say that this was the site of a sew-age treatment plant for North Ash-croft. I will have more details (some of them not entirely savoury) in my next column; but in the meantime a heartfelt “Thank you!” to all who replied.

Volunteering isn’t for everyone, a fact well known by those who do volunteer and wish there were more volunteers around to help. Volunteers are special.
It’s National Volunteer Week, so let’s sp-preciate what volunteers do for us.
There’s no doubt that volunteers provide us with some of the best experiences and services that we’ll ever get, and in a small town such as ours, that is a vital role.
I often hear people complain that there’s no “this, that or the other” in our towns and “there’s nothing to do!” Well, imagine how much less there would be without volun-teers.
No celebrations like Canada Day or the Easter Egg Hunts, no events like Desert Daze, Heritage Week, River Festival, Graf-fiti Days, Wellness Festival, musical con-certs, art shows, parades... No services like our seniors’ housing, fire departments, min-or sports, community radio, no gardening clubs, no sporting associations, no cadets or cubs or any of the other hundreds of activ-ities that engage the public.
Without these things, there would be “nothing to do” and it wouldn’t be long be-fore we started to notice a faster decline in our populations.
Volunteers such as we have are price-less. If our towns had to pay for the work they do for free.... well, they just couldn’t. It would be more than they had in their budget.
As a volunteer myself, I appreciate the support that my group receives from our municipality. In a “job” that doesn’t get much thanks, it is gratifying to know that our town council understands and appreci-ates the value of their volunteers.
Sometimes even a volunteer will grum-ble that are are too few volunteers and too much work to do, but volunteers tend to in-crease their own workload in order to pro-vide more to their communities.
Why? Because they’re special. Because they enjoy seeing their plans come togeth-er and seeing people enjoying or benefitting from their work. Then they pat themselves on the back - or they pat each other on the back - and do it all over again.
It’s not a life for the weak!

Packing House Dinner Show with ‘West My Friend’
The Packing House in Spences Bridge presents ‘West My Friend’ on Saturday, April 18. Take the cozy con-fines of the historical Packing House, settle in to a soup or salad starter, chase it with an incredible entrée and let the music begins. Dessert then follows as the first set ends. The band joins in, talking, sharing, answering question and they also get the decadent dessert. A second set follows - oh, what a night!
Described as everything from in-die-roots to chamber-folk, ‘West My Friend’ acoustic blend of instruments and four-part harmonies challenges the conventions of popular music to create a performance that is both engaging and innovative. Songs are created through
a collaborative process: well-craft-ed and clever lyrics, acrobatic mando-lin riffs, flawless bass lines, and rich-ly textured accordion combine as every member brings forward their own ideas and experiences.”This band will knock off all your socks. They are so talent-ed, so unique, so wonderful. Of all the artists we’ve hosted, we listen to West My Friend CDs more than any other.” Reservations for Dinner (5:30pm) and Show (7:15pm) call (250) 458-2256.

Author & Songwriter Tom Coles April 25
The night will celebrate both the re-lease of Tom’s new book Spirit Talker - The Legend of Nakosis as well as his great gift of music and songs. Come an enjoy songs and stories that will open your heart on Saturday, April 25.
Spirit Talker tells the fantastic-al story of one young man’s induction into the mystique and magical world of the Shaman.
Tom’s music has been described as “Gordon Lightfoot meets Doc Wat-son”, citing two of the major music-al influences in his life. Yet his style is uniquely Tom Coles. Growing up in Toronto during the folk music heyday of the 60’s and 70’s gave Tom the op-
portunity to experience first hand some of folk music’s true legends - experiences that would have such a great impact on his musical dir-ection. Tom recalls as a teenager and novice singer/guitarist seeing the likes of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, Ian and Sylvia, Joni Mitchell and, of course, Gordon Lightfoot and Doc Watson to name a few.
He started playing profession-ally as a folk singer at coffee houses in and around Toronto in the early to mid 70’s but the popularity that folk music had enjoyed was waning as discos had began replacing the folk venues. Al-though he had by now studied commer-cial art and graphic design, he decid-ed to continue with music making the move to country and country rock and from coffee houses to clubs and bars. A road that he was to travel on and off of for the next almost 15 years.
He moved to B.C. around 1979 and except for a few interludes (the US, India and Nepal) he has called it home ever since. He toured with a multitude of bands and duos over those many years on road tours that literally went from Inuvik to Southern Arizona. He and his wife, Sandy, moved to an acre-age above the picturesque Thomp-son River near Clearwater where they enjoy the simple country life.
Doors at 6:30pm - shows starts at 7pm with Na-dine Daven-port open-ing. Limited to the first 30 people only. Tickets at the door or in ad-vance. Drop by UniTea to buy your tick-et or phone (250) 453 9345 to re-serve.

Mother’s Day Tea and Plein Air coming in MayNext Family Movie Apr 25 with Paddington Bear
The Village of Cache Creek pre-sents another fun Family Movie Night at the Cache Creek Community Hall.
Paddington Bear is this month’s feature on Friday, April 25. Admission at the door. Doors open at 6 pm, Movie starts at 6:30 pm.
Popcorn and snacks available at the Cache Creek Elementary School Parent Advisory Council concession.
You Can Heal Your Life showingUniTea Tea Room will be host-
ing another Video/Discussion Night that features a range of Spiritual/En-vironmental Documentary style Vid-eos for mutual enjoyment and conver-sation. The evening will include a por-tion of the night dedicated to discussion and reflection on the Video presented at each evenings Video Circle. This is a free event. This month’s inspiration-al video feature is ‘You Can Heal Your Life’ showing on Thursday, April 30 from 7-9pm.
This entertaining and inspirational movie based on the best-selling book of the same name is hosted by author and teacher Louise L. Hay. This film gives penetrating insights into Louise’s fas-cinating personal story; and shows how her views on self-esteem, abundance, and the metaphysical causes behind physical ailments were developed. It also reveals how she applied these con-cepts to her own emotional, spiritual, and professional life.
A number of luminaries in the fields of self-help, philosophy, health, spirit-uality, and New Thought join Louise, giving their take on success, happiness, and the myriad ways in which people can heal their own lives. And there are also gripping first hand accounts from others who have been positively affect-ed by Louise’s work.
Also showing is a 30 minute short, Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds - Part 3 of 4 The Serpent and the Lotus. The spiral has often been represented by the
snake, the downward current, while the bird or blooming lotus flower has repre-sented the upward current or transcend-ence. The ancient traditions taught that a human being can become a bridge extending from the outer to the inner, from gross to subtle, from the lower chakras to the higher chakras’.
This four part video is the single best exposition on the spiritual ‘arts and sciences’ that I believe or know to exist in the world.
Mothers Day Afternoon Tea and two cello/harp performances with Crossbow
UniTea Tea Room will be trans-formed into an English style Tea Room on Sunday, May 10. The afternoon will offer you delicate finger sandwich-es, pastries, crumpets and scones and a choice of the many organic Herbal or black teas such as Lavender Mint, Earl Grey, Cream Earl, Earl Grey Lavender and many more. UniTea is also break-ing out the good china with various unique tea cups, saucers, tea pots and serving plates.
Entertaining for a short set will be the Celtic / Classical duo from Kam-loops, ‘Crossbow’. The afternoon event takes place from 1-3pm, with tickets available at the door or in advance - a set price per person.
A special evening event will feature a longer concert performance. ‘Cross-bow’ are Neil Burnett (Celtic harp, penny whistle, etc.) and Christina Zaen-ker (cello and voice) who make music from a wild new recipe for 38 strings, ringing timber, and assorted son-ic spices. These well-seasoned musi-cians serve up original compositions using traditional Celtic forms and hints of jazz, creating music that is uplifting, at times melancholic, and always en-chanting. Doors open at 6:30pm with the Concert starting at 7:30pm. Tickets in advance only for either event, they can be purchased at UniTea Room or by phone (250) 453 9345.
Wine Tasting and Cafe Murder Mystery Theatre
Join WRAPS and the Ro-tary Club of Ashcroft/Cache Creek for a co-presented even-ing of wine tasting, appetizers, dessert and an interactive mur-der mystery play! The Wine Tasting and Cafe Murder Mys-
tery Theatre will take place May 2 from 7–9pm at the Ashcroft Community Hall.
Along with the alcoholic bever-age tasting (wine, sparkling wine, ales, ciders), there will be coffee by Beans Roasted Right, appetizers, desserts and an interactive, comedic murder mys-tery performed by WRAPS! Tickets are available at Interior Savings Ashcroft and all Rotarians.
Cafe Murder is a hilarious murder mystery comedy. Rosemary Saint-John is a loud, annoying hypochondriac con-vinced she is allergic to water. Cele-brating her birthday at a restaurant with her four kooky sisters – a hippie, a val-ley girl, a trucker and a banker–Rose-mary makes enemies with everyone around her. When she disappears and is presumed murdered, the only object-ive witnesses in the restaurant are the audience members, who must cast their vote. Was it one of Rosemary’s sisters? The self-taught detective? The passion-ate French chef? The polite and prop-er mâitre d’? The sarcastic waiter? No one is above suspicion in this delightful dinner theatre murder mystery!

We all know we should recycle, and routinely place our newspapers, plastic bottles and alumi-num cans at the curb for collection. There are many other lesser known things that can be recycled. While these things may not be able to be placed curbside, they can be dropped off at recycling centers. Before an item is relegated to the trash can, you can do a little re-search and see if it can be recycled. Some companies or organizations pick up certain recyclables, saving individuals time and gas.
1. Appliances. Some cit-ies have appliance recy-cling or rebate programs. An older, less ef� cient appliance can be turned
in for a rebate on a new energy-ef� cient model. If a computer is in good working order, it may be sold or passed on to an-other person who can put it to use. Some seniors are not interested in RAM or processor speed. They just want a means of connect-ing to the Internet and can bene� t from a recy-cled machine. Otherwise, computers may be donat-ed to schools. For those who simply must recycle the machine, there are different drop~off zones for computers and periph-erals, like printers. Some goodwill organizations will take them and turn them into pro� ts.
2. Batteries. These pint-size sources of power con-
tain heavy metals that can leak out into the ground and water supplies. They should be brought to recycling centers to be disposed of properly. Oth-erwise, consider buying recyclable batteries and a charger.
3. Mattresses. Thanks to bed bug epidemics, fewer people are willing to pur-chase or take on a used mattress. For those who are upgrading to a new mattress and have an old one to discard, check with your local municipality to � nd out which transfer station will recycle the mattress. Some mattress stores will cart away an old mattress if a new one is purchased.
4. Scrap Metal. Those
with scrap metal clogging up garages or basements can actually make some cash off these items. Scrap metal is in demand, and there are dealers who handle the sale and trade of these materials. Check the classi� ed section of this paper to � nd local dealers in this area.
5. Cds and DVDs. The number of these plastic discs in circulation is high. Find out where they can be recycled or turn them into handy items for oth-er uses. For example, use a CD as a re� ector on a mailbox or at the end of the driveway. Pintrest has some great suggestions for reusing Cds and DVDs.
6. CFL Bulbs. The com-pact Fluorescent bulbs
save energy but they should be recycled proper-ly, thanks to the minuscule amount of mercury they contain. Some stores will collect them so check with your local retailer.
7. Toner and Ink Car-tridges. Don’t discard those spent cartridges. Bring them back to of� ce supply stores for recycling credit.
8. Oil. If individuals are changing their own motor oil, it will need to be taken to the transfer station or recycling centerfor proper recycling, Many commer-cial oil change businesses will recycle their oil, which makes paying for an oil change convenient and environmentally respon-sible.

Less people attending, Bean Supper carries onUNITED IN SPIRIT
United Church Women
Phyllis Gray
The Zion United Church Women held their April meeting at 2 pm on April 1 with seven mem-bers attending. We repeated the U.C.W. Purpose together,
President Reta Robertson wel-comed everyone and thanked us for giving of our time for the work of the UCW. Reta lead the devotional in Jack-lyn Desrosiers’ absence. She read from the book Quiet Moments For Women by June Bacher. In all things have faith and hope. The scripture was 1st Cor-inthians 13:7 and also verse 9:10. Love endures all things. She closed with prayer.
The agenda was circulated and ap-proved. The March meeting minutes were approved as circulated.
Old Business was next and we evaluated the Friendship Tea and the Bean Supper. The numbers were down but we wish to thank all those who brought food and attended. Without all of you we could not continue to carry on with the Bean Supper. So thank you again!
Correspondence was dealt with and we had may newsletters and Thank Yous. They came from Action Inter-national missionary Carmen, the Cen-tre for Christian Studies, Canadian Bible Society, Naramata Centre and Riding The Waves magazine.
Reports were next and treasurer Colleen Mireau handed out her report. It was accepted Verbal reports were given by Dorothy Pears for Sunshine, Phyllis Gray for Publicity, Hilda Drink-water for Archives and Reta Robertson for Outreach. Thank you for all who save and turn in the Campbell labels. Please make sure the bar code and the name Campbell is intact. If you slit the label down the back, hopefully it will come off the can in once piece. Thank you to all who save these for us as they help with Christian work elsewhere. Also thank you to those who save used stamps. They also help with Christian
work. The United Church will host Soups On in the United Church Hall tomorrow, April 17, from 11 am to 1 pm. The Anglican Church will be hosting the annual Art Show in their Hall at that time.
We then paused for a time of re-freshments and fellowship.
New Business was attended to and the U.C.W. Will lead the worship in Zion United Church on June 14. More planning for this will take place at our May meeting. Our next meeting will be May 5 at 2 pm and Devotional and Re-freshment ladies were made known.
We adjourned the meeting and stood to repeat the United Church Women’s prayer together.
If any ladies are interested in our work, come and join us as a visitor – you would be most welcome.
Show off your beautiful vegetables, flowers and herbs at this year’s Ash-croft & District Fall Fair on Sept. 13.
It may seem like a long ways away, but right now is when gardeners are de-ciding what they’re going to plant.
The Fair has entry categories for all vegetables, fruit, herb displays and cut flowers. A nice ribbon for your efforts
gives you bragging rights, but some of the categories come with cash prizes or gift certificates. Check the Fair’s entry booklet for those details when it comes out later this Spring.
So plan before you plant and bee ready. The Ashcroft & District Fall Fair is held Sept. 13 from 10 am to 4 pm at Ashcroft’s Drylands Arena.

Desert Daze adding musicians, Farmers Market getting readyJust when you
thought spring was here the tem-perature plum-mets and the Co-quihalla gets a dump of snow!
We were for-tunate enough to have nice weath-er for our spring cleanup. There was a pretty good turnout including a gaggle of kids and everyone chipped in and did their share of picking up litter from all our roads and highways. What a great thing to do! I do think that folks are not littering as much as they used to. It seems that over the years of doing this I have seen a decrease in in how many bags of garbage we collect. Thanks everyone for coming out and helping.
Easter Sunday was also a lovely day. What an amazing turn out! (Photos on page 10.) The Easter Bunny left lots of chocolates for all the kiddies, lots of kids took part in the many games, kite mak-ing, and t-shirt decorating. And somehow all the food got eaten! Thanks so much to Cook’s Ferry, The Log Cabin Pub, Bait’s Motel, and the SB Fire Dept. for the gen-erous donations that enable the Spen-ces Bridge Community Club (SBCC) to host this event! The SB Farmer’s / Flea market committee ran a successful raf-fle and bake sale to assist with the start up costs for the market. Thank-you to every-one for donating the raffle prizes, bak-ing the goodies, and to all those who pur-chased….thanks for your support!
Our monthly bingos continue, with our next one on April 20. Mark your cal-endars for the third Monday of every month, and come to Cleme’s Hall on Hwy 8 for a fun night of bingo! Doors open at 5:30 – concession snacks avail-able. Hope to see you there!
I can now announce another fantastic band that has confirmed for desert daze -
Kara Kata is a 10-piece high energy band. The follow-ing descrip-tion is from their website: “Kárà-Kátà ... can be called world but we blend effort-lessly origin-
al afrobeat, afrobeat reggae, soca, calyp-so, afrobeat gospel, modern funk, jazz, blues, salsa, psychedelic rock & soul. our musical spice is exotic and inspiring. We celebrate and share the beauty of African/Canadian multiculturalism with dance, music, fashion through our live performances. although the music is African origin, but we are 90 per cent of dif-ferent backgrounds and ori-gins and 10 per cent African. we are truly the world beat.”
This will truly be a dy-namic musical experience! And just as an example of the diversity of the music at this festival I am very excit-ed to have also confirmed award winner and multi-award nominee alternative country, roots, folk, blue-grass singer and songwriter Angela Harris!! For more in-formation, or to sign up as a vendor or to volunteer please visit the website www.de-sertdaze.ca and visit us on Facebook!
We’re planning another cleanup on Saturday, April 18 – we’re tackling the graveyard this time. Please come along and lend a hand to tidy up our graveyard. Bring a rake, shears, weed
wacker, or whatever your tool of choice might be, and meet at the graveyard at 9:30 am.
The SB. Fire Dept. has reported that we have two new First Responders step-ping up to the plate for training. This is great news, as our First Responders are a very important vital part of the emer-gency medical response for our commun-ity and their dedication is truly appreciat-ed! The Fire Dept. and the First Respond-ers will be holding their annual Mother’s Day Pancake breakfast fundraiser. Please come out and support these volunteers and enjoy a fantastic breakfast at the same time – your Mother will love it! Sunday,
May10 at 9 am at the old school.The Sunday of May long weekend
(May 17) will be our first Market of the year. It is fast approaching, so if you’re interested in renting a table, please call Oliva @ 458-2532. We could also do with a few volunteers to help with concession and market opening / closing. There is a sign-up sheet at the PO if you’re interest-ed.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank our secretary Joris Ekering who has given his notice to step down in his role with the SBCC. Thank-you Joris for your dedication to our community, and we wish you all the best.

ON A BRIGHTER
NOTE
Think lost, not strayFor over two weeks
my life has been con-sumed with trying to find our beloved dog, Charlie. Between put-ting up flyers, chasing tips, social networking, actively looking, and managing emotions on the home front, it’s re-mained all-consuming.Educating myself on
how to think like a dog has taken some time as well, but it’s been a necessary step to find-ing our boy. I’d had this vision of calling out his name and him bounding out in front of me, wagging his tail at finally being found. But I’ve learned the longer a dog is missing the less likely they are to respond to their own name or show them-selves at all. At first I was asking
people to grab Char-
lie if they saw him. I soon learned that was the wrong thing to say. After a dog’s been on their own for a time they enter a frightened, semi-feral state and even their family can appear threatening. Chasing after a lost pet will often exacer-bate the problem since they’re likely to run and become even more lost and in danger.Now I ask people to
take a picture if they can and notify me or dog control immedi-ately. The picture helps to confirm it’s actu-ally our dog and we’re searching in the right area.I also encourage peo-
ple who want to help with his actual rescue to try attracting him by lying on the ground and speaking softly, of-
fering food if they have any. This non-threaten-ing stance will feel safer and more inviting.The notion that lost
dogs are stupid because they can’t find their way home or abused because they won’t approach a human is incorrect. We have no idea what they’ve gone through. They might have been chased sev-eral times, they may have narrowly missed being hit by a car, or
they may be injured. Any harrowing experi-ences combined with having to suddenly find their own food, water and shelter in unfa-miliar surroundings without their families will put them in a sur-vival mode where their animal instincts kick in and they can become skittish of everything and everyone.Lost dogs usually
settle in a residential neighborhood, ranch
or farm where their needs can be met and they’re able to hide out undetected for weeks or months on end. They typically stay in places that have a quick getaway route, like a woodsy area they can escape to.They often seek ref-
uge in garages, work-shops, playhouses and under balconies. They will hide if they hear people coming so it’s almost impossible to find them unless a sighting’s reported. At that point, it’s impor-tant not to scare them away and call the own-er or Dog Control so they can coax them to safety.There are a lot of
helpful tips on the In-ternet to finding lost pets and for anyone who ends up in the un-enviable position that we’re in now, I highly recommend reading up on it right away.This heartbreaking
experience has brought out both the “crazies” and the “compassion-ates.” I could give you several examples of the former, but I’ll just say one of the worst was the scammer who pre-tended to have Charlie and threatened to cut off his head and leave it on our doorstep if we didn’t put money in his account.Thank goodness the
wonderful people have far outweighed the ter-rible, and for us that’s
really been the big pos-itive since losing him on March 23. Friends and complete strang-ers have helped us by sharing our posts on social media, sending us encouragement, tell-ing us their stories, giv-ing us advice, putting up posters, and actively looking for him as well as other lost pets in our community.So far five people
believe they’ve seen Charlie, but none of them said anything until hours after when they saw my ad. We are grateful for their help, but if we, as a society, automatically respond to an unfamil-iar dog out and about on it’s own in the same way we would seeing a toddler on their own, more lost dogs would be found.In the past two weeks
I’ve heard so many sto-ries of people keeping cats and dogs they con-sidered a stray without
first reporting them to the SPCA. While they might be well inten-tioned, this is theft and it’s completely crushing to the family missing their treasured pet.The idea is to think
lost, not stray. If the animal has been re-ported to the SPCA and no one claims it, then it can be put up for adoption. But these steps must be taken or lives can be deeply affected in a devastat-ing way, especially for those of us who see our pets as family.We still haven’t found
our precious Charlie, but every day we wake up hoping this will be the day that we do. We’re offering a large reward to anyone with a tip that leads to his safe return and we hope we’ll be paying up soon.Lori Welbourne is a

Luke Franklin KirbyJuly 15, 1946 - April 2, 2015
Luke passed peacefully and now watches over us with his dear Grandfather Frank Chase, his Mother Frances L. Kirby and Father Luke T Kirby.
Luke is survived by his beloved wife Jan Kimberley and his four children, Alisha Wilby (husband Mike), Luke Kirby, Matthew Kirby, Jason Kirby and first wife Dorothy Kirby. Luke is also survived by his brother Terry Kirby (wife Wendy), sister Colleen Stothert (husband Bob), brother Mark Kirby, stepmother Irene Kirby and many nieces and nephews as well as his loved and esteemed friends. He will be forever missed by his family and friends.
Luke was born in Princeton, his family moved around BC a great deal in his early years due to his father’s job. He spent his teenage years in Vancouver. After attending Brentwood College for several years he worked with explosives building logging roads all over BC with his grandfather until marrying in 1979 and moving to Abbotsford where he worked as a drywaller and helped raise his four children. The last 10 years he lived in Ashcroft with his wife Jan whom he loved very much.
He enjoyed being an integral part of the Ashcroft Legion. He loved hunting, fishing and just being in the great outdoors. He often stated he felt he had been born 100 years too late as he would have loved to have been a pioneer living off the land.
Service will be held at the Ashcroft Legion #113, 300 Brink Street, Ashcroft, BC April 18th 2015 at 1:00 p.m.
Fairburn, Doris Edwina, passed away peacefully on April 9, 2015. Winnie, as she was lovingly known, is survived by her daughter and son-in-law Bonnie and Roland Stanke, son Jody Crombie, sister Mary Nelson, brothers Roy and Randy Gallant, grandchildren, great grandchildren and nieces and nephews.
Winnie loved nature and wildlife; she spent most of her life in the Cariboo Region of BC. She was loved by many and will be
remembered always. An intimate evening service for family and close friends will be held at 6:00 pm on Saturday, April 18, 2015 in the Royal Canadian Legion basement in Clinton, BC.
In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to the Ashcroft Hospital where she received the greatest of care in her last days.
Online condolences may be made at www.tvfh.ca

The End of an EraAnyone visiting the Village of Clin-
ton Municipal Office after April 30 may notice a difference. Deputy Clerk Dina Connon is retiring after serving for over 39 years in the Village Office.
Dina started on March 1, 1976 and has been a constant fixture in the office ever since. She has worked with nine Mayors and numerous Councillors and 10 different Administrators over the years.
Everyone in Clinton depended on Dina’s exceptional memory. She car-ries more knowledge about the hist-ory of Clinton than anyone else I know. She could be relied upon to remember names, dates, even tax role numbers. Many residents of Clinton have never seen the Village Office without Dina there. She will be missed.
On Tuesday, April 21 the Village staff and Council invite everyone to drop in between 1-4:30 p.m. to enjoy cake, fellowship and stories with Dina.
The Village of Clinton Mayor, Council and staff wish her well in her retirement and remind her to drop in to visit. She knows what time the coffee is on!
Enjoy your retire-ment, Dina. You’ve earned it!
PAC Needs More Parents
The Clinton School Parent Advis-ory Council (PAC) is again asking parents of school students to get involved.
The School Act gives parents the right, through PACs, to assume an advisory role in every school.
PAC is the officially recognized collective voice of parents of their school. A PAC, through its elected officers, may ad-vise the school board, the prin-cipal and staff of the school re-specting any matter relating to the school other than matters assigned to the School Planning Council (SPC).
PACs are forums with-in each school community to discuss matters affecting your school and the education of your children. Parents’ voices are a tremendous value to their school. They offer a wealth of ideas and support in the chal-lenges that face all public schools. PACs strive to repre-sent the diversity within their communities and contribute to the benefit of all students by providing opportunities to educate and inform parents about the school, involving parents in volunteer activities and openly discussing parents’ concerns and aspirations for their schools.
Parents or guardians of all students are welcome to at-tend the PAC meetings. These are held monthly on the third Monday of the month at 6:30 p.m. in the school library.
Meetings typically last about an hour. The next PAC meeting is on Monday, April 20.
Council MeetingsThe regular meetings of the Vil-
lage of Clinton Council are held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. These meetings are open to the public and attendees will be given the opportunity to question or comment on anything that is on the agenda. The next regular meet-ing is on April 22 beginning at 7p.m. in Council Chambers in the Munici-pal Office building.
Wild Game BanquetThe Clinton and District Out-
door Sportsmen Association will hold a Wild Game Banquet on Sat-urday, April 25.
This is the major fundrais-ing event for this group and in-cludes dinner, a silent and live auc-
tion and a dance. The funds raised help with their environmental stewardship projects, Moose counts, and more. As usual the tickets sold out quickly.
