Vancouver, BC – Over the past few days, the Cariboo Regional District (CRD) was honoured with two prestigious awards at the Union of British Columbia M u n i c i p a l i t i e s (UBCM) Conference and AGM which took place in Vancouver from September 26 to 30, 2011.

On Wednesday, September 28, the CRD received a 2011 Community R e c o g n i t i o n Award presented byWoodWORKS!BC. Last year the CRD was honoured with this award for its post and beam style construction of the 100 Mile House Branch Library.

This award is pre-sented annually to a community that has

shown leadership in the advocacy of wood and wood products. This may be demon-strated through the specification of wood in a community proj-ect or through vision-ary initiatives that work toward building a community culture of wood. WoodWORKS! is a national indus-try-led initiative of the Canadian Wood Council, with a goal to support innovation and provide leadership on the use of wood and wood products.

During the reso-lutions session on Thursday, the CRD learned it won an annu-al Gold Star Award for its successful resolu-tion “Public Telephone Access”. This marks the second consecutive year the CRD has earned a

Gold Star Award after winning with aPallia-tive Care Feesresolution in 2010. The Regional District also earned Gold Star Awards in 2005, and 2008.

The Gold Star and Honourable Mention resolution recognition initiative was launched at the 2003 UBCM convention, and is intended to encour-age excellence in reso-lution drafting and to assist UBCM members in refining their reso-lutions in preparation for submission to the annual convention. Each year the UBCM executive presents Gold Star and Honourable Mention Awards to members for the best-crafted resolutions.

“It was truly a pro-ductive conference with excellent speakers and

professional develop-ment opportunities,” stated CRD Chair Al Richmond. “I would like to commend the Board and staff for tak-ing concepts and issues raised by our residents and turning them into successful resolutions such as the Public Telephone Access.”

In 2011, the Cariboo Regional District sub-mitted a total of 17 resolutions which saw a majority of success; a total of 16 receiving endorsement by the UBCM membership. The results are as fol-lows:

Resolutions Endorsed- Flood Mitigation

Programs- 911 Call Levy- Infrastructure

Costs- Regulation of

the Sale of Plants & Seeds

- Agriculture Policy- Barriers to

Small Scale Food Production &

Distribution- High Speed

Internet/Cellular Phone Coverage

- Authority to Control Weeds

Health Recruitment and Retention Project Received

Nancy Wagner and Melanie Reed, Thompson Rivers University graduate stu-dents, and Catherine Whitman, Community Health Integrated Services Health Service Administrator, with Interior Health (IH) provided a presenta-tion about the new

Recruitment and Retention Project. The Cariboo Chilcotin Regional Hospital District (CCRHD) funded the project which focused on developing a strategy to recruit physi-cians and other health care providers to the region, and in particular the 100 Mile House and Williams Lake areas.

Karen Brunoro, Residential Nurse

Manager for Interior Health also provided the Board with an update about Deni House in Williams Lake. The renovations are almost complete and will see the opening of 28 news beds on November 28, and will be fully opera-tional by December 15, 2011. Further informa-tion about IH and Deni House is available online at www.interiorhealth.ca

CRD Endorses Policies

The Cariboo Regional District endorsed a number of recommendations from the Cariboo Regional District Committee of the Whole meeting held on September 15, 2011. The policies include a code of conduct and ethics, director’s remu-neration, election peri-od communications, Regional Development Framework and a new process for appoint-ing representatives to the North Central Local Government Association.

Wildwood Golf Course

The Cariboo Regional District gave approval in principle to the Wildwood Volunteer Fire Department Association to construct a disc golf course on CRD property adjacent to the Wildwood fire hall. The approval-in-principle is for a two-year agreement with the association, subject to confirmation that there are no operational conflicts with the fire department or safety issues with the location. Disc golf is a game in which individual players throw a disc into a bas-ket or at a target.

The determination of a mother should never be underestimat-ed, or in this story, a mother who is also a Wildwood resident.

“One way or another, even if I have to dig the dirt myself, that rink is going in this year,” said Denise Thompson, showcasing the com-munity’s commitment to building an ice rink in the rural community for this coming winter.

Thompson has been a Wildwood resident on and off for the past 18 years and her two chil-dren went to the local elementary school to Grade 7. Thompson is now the Treasurer of the Wildwood Community Association and she is determined to get things done and revi-talize the community in the process.

Residents were alert-ed to fragile state of small, rural communi-ties last spring when the

School Board consid-ered closing the local elementary school. The school was partially saved; it lost Grades 4-7 due to declining enroll-ment and now func-tions as a K to Grade 3 school.

Spurred on by the Wildwood School being scaled back, Thompson and Wildwood resi-dents have begun to fight back.

“Children and fami-lies, that’s what keeps a community togeth-er,” said Thompson, who lives behind the Wildwood School and can’t imagine what the community would be like without the school.

And what better way to bring and hold the community together than with a good old-fashioned hockey rink.

The rink has been in the works for the past six or seven years, and it has been with Thompson’s drive and determination that it is

finally coming to life.CRD Area ‘D’ direc-

tor, Deb Bishoff echoes Thompson’s feeling on having kids in the com-munity.

“Kids make a com-munity,” she says. “If the school closes, the community will sur-vive but it won’t be the same.’

“It’s phenomenal, what (Thompson) has done in less than a year, what the community has been working on for years,” said Bishoff.

The rink is being built on the Wildwood School field this year, and the project for next year is a disc golf course to be put beside the fire hall according to Thompson.

“We want to bring affordable, fun, and safe family activities to the community,” said Thompson.

According to Thompson, the school is the centre of the community and if it ever closes it would be devastating to the com-munity.

She knows first-hand the difficulty of working in town, and having kids in school out in Wildwood, so she understands why a lot of kids are bussed into town.

“Next I think we need to encourage an after school program and daycare at the school,” said Thompson.

Bishoff agrees with

Thompson saying that having daycare is one of the reasons the 150 Mile Elementary school is doing so well.

Bishoff said

Thompson and the rest of the people work-ing with her have all worked hard to bring this rink to the com-munity.

Wildwood residents rally to save themselves

The Cariboo Regional District (CRD) received Joint Emergency Preparedness (JEPP) funding to continue its emergency opera-tions planning and preparedness activities throughout the region. The grants, totalling $7,682.00 were used to purchase equipment for the CRD primary Emergency Operation Centre (EOC), backup portable communica-

tion equipment and also partially funded a Spring Readiness Symposium that brought stake-holders in Emergency Planning and Response together to discuss pos-sible events and share ideas and lessons learned from past events.

Whether it is used for training, the purchase of emergency response equipment, or emer-gency planning exercis-es, the JEPP investment is a pro-active method

aimed to reduce the loss of human life, injuries, as well as property dam-age costs associated with an emergency.

The Government of Canada, in consultation and co-operation with provincial and territo-rial governments, con-tributes to emergency preparedness and criti-cal infrastructure pro-tection projects and initiatives through the JEPP.

A victim and a sus-pect were both taken to hospital by police Sunday morning fol-lowing a disturbance and stabbing at about 8:25 a.m. that morning on Midnight Drive.

According to police, a male and female were having an argument which lead to a physi-cal altercation when another male allegedly stepped in to break up the incident and

was stabbed through the upper thigh and hit with a broken rake handle.

Sgt. Rick Lebeuf said the suspect fled the scene on foot fol-lowing the stabbing but was located by police and arrested.

During the alterca-tion the suspect had suffered a scalp lacera-tion and was taken to hospital for treated, as was the victim.

“At the time of the incident the sus-pect failed to comply with conditions of his recognizance which he previously entered into on a Prince George investigation,” Lebeuf said.

Police are recom-mending two charges of assault with a weap-on and one of failing to comply with condi-tions of an undertak-ing.

Council meeting highlights from Tuesday, October 4, 2011 Delegations

Karen Brunoro, Interior Health - Deni House Update

Karen Brunoro, 100 Mile House Residential Nurse Manager, gave council an update on the renovation of Deni House. Opening is expected Nov. 28, and Deni House is expected to be at capacity on December 15.

Regular Agenda Application to

the RCMP Contract M a n a g e m e n t Committee - Chief Administrative Officer

Council supported an application to Union of British Columbia Municipalities for the CAO to be appoint-ed to the BC/Local Government RCMP Contract Management Committee. The City of Williams Lake shares a common inter-est with other similar sized communities in having an accountable, cost effective munici-pal policing agreement and having a seat on the Committee would provide an opportunity to influence the suc-

cess of the new RCMP contract.

Contact: Brian Carruthers at 250-392-1763

Permissive Tax Exemptions

Council gave first three readings to bylaws to approve 2012 permissive tax exemp-tions, including those for land surrounding a building for public worship and for land surrounding buildings of private schools. Staff recommends that the permissive tax exemp-tions (that do not involve public wor-ship or school proper-ties) apply only for a one-year period, thus becoming effective for 2012 only. Based on 2011 assessed val-ues and taxation rates, the estimated total amount of taxes that would be imposed on the proposed proper-ties if they were not tax exempt is approxi-mately $176,069, an increase of $5,128 over the actual 2011 tax exemptions.

Contact: Pat Higgins at 250-392-1762

BC Transit - 2010/2011 Annual Performance Summary

Council received the 2010-2011 Annual Performance Summary for the Williams Lake Transit Service for information. Following years of consistent growth in ridership, in 2010/11 Williams Lake saw an overall decrease in ridership and revenues as well as a decrease in costs from the previous year. In spite of the decreases in ridership and rev-enues, the Williams Lake transit system, operating costs per ride and hour are within the average range of the comparable Tier 3 (Paratransit) in BC. It is expected that with the addition of two new low-floor buses with improved access and seating, transit rid-ership will increase in the future. Staff will be meeting with the BC Transit Regional Transit Manager to review the performance report in more detail and to identify strategies to

improve performance and reduce costs.

Development Variance Permit #08-2011 - Signal Point Road

Council accepted the application for the Development Variance Permit from Brian & Rita Sowden, Risto & Susan Kurkiniemi and Rudolf & Cathie Durfeld requesting to reduce the exterior lot line setback from 3.0 m (9.84 ft) to 2.67 m (8.76 ft) for the exist-ing cabin only in order to facilitate the regis-tration of a lake access pursuant to section 75 of the Land Title Act as a condition of a proposed subdivision of the subject prop-erty. Council agreed to issue Development Variance Permit #08-2011 upon the adop-tion of Williams Lake Zoning Amendment No. 2099, 2009; and directed staff to issue notice of the applica-tion to property own-ers and tenants within

100 metres of the sub-ject property advising of the time and date when the matter will be considered by Council. Council also forward-ed the application to the Advisory Planning Commission for review and recommendation.

Contact: Geoff Goodall at 250-392-1766

Application to Homelessness Partnering Strategy

Council endorsed an application to the Government of Canada through the Homelessness Partnering Initiative for an amount up to $75,000. Staff are in the process of prepar-ing an application to the Homelessness Partnering Initiative for the Knowledge Development Fund on Rural and Remote Homelessness. The proposed project will research the movement of homeless and home-less at risk from rural to urban communities and the information gathered for this proj-ect will assist in devel-

oping our Affordable Housing Strategy.

Financial Impact of Pool Closure

Council received a report from Director of Community Services Geoff Paynton regard-ing the financial impact of the closure of Sam Ketcham Pool this summer. When all impacts of the recent six week pool shut-down at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex (CMRC) to repair water leaks are accounted for, the negative impact to the CMRC budget will be approximately $98,500. The pool closed on June 30th and extensive work began to locate and repair the leak.

Work was completed and the pool re-opened on August 15th, six weeks later. During this time the fitness centre was kept open however the rest of the pool, and pool area, had to remain closed. This sig-nificantly impacted the drop-in customers who

frequent the CMRC due to the variety of services they are usu-ally able to partake in. Three complete swim-ming lesson sets were lost due to this closure and the fourth set was significantly depleted due to the inability to predict an exact open-ing date and the short time that was available to register for the les-sons once the opening was known.

Contact: Geoff Paynton at 250-392-1786

Sam Ketcham Pool & Recreation Facilities Priorities

Council approved recommendations from Director of Community Services Geoff Paynton maintain the Sam Ketcham Pool as is, and to direct staff to begin planning work on a new option to replace the pool. This item has yet to be con-sidered by the Cariboo Regional District Board of Directors.

35 days until the race. We are having a couple of fundraisers this week, one at the Child Development Centre on 2nd Avenue on Thursday and on Friday at Scotiabank and the raffle tickets should be for sale as well. Come out and help us raise money for the Rick Hansen Foundation and meet one of our goals.

I have been reading Rick’s book about his tour and what I have really taken from it is the tremendous person-al sacrifice he made to do the Man in Motion tour. Can you imagine taking two years, two months, and two days to wheel 24,901.55 miles around the world? Living in a small moto-rhome in close proxim-ity with your friends

must have been really trying at times. He did it though and we are all better off. While it has been twenty five years since his tour I think we really need to help Rick celebrate what he did then and what he has accom-plished since.

On the October long weekend my wife and kids went with her parents to Calgary to see her brother and

his family. I arranged to go fishing with my dad, brother Simon, and grandfather for sturgeon on the Fraser River. The first day we went fishing from Hope towards Hells Gate. We had a good day, went through some big water in the STS Fishing Charters Jet Boat. We landed five nice fish, and man did they ever put up a fight in the strong current. We actually had six, but Simon thought he would let that one get away, it was the biggest of the day. Sturgeon fishing is a lot of fun and it is all catch and release, so they should be there for future generations.

Day 2 of the fish-ing trip was from the Mission Harbour up on the Fraser and our

guide for the day was named Rob. Rob knew several good fishing holes and we landed seven fish in six hours, at times it was crazy how fast we were catching them, and then there would be nothing for a few hours. This was a good weekend to spend some time together. On our way back we had dinner at the Hungry Herbies restaurant in Cache Creek and my dad reminded us when were kids he used to stop there and he said ‘remember guys, remember playing the pinball machines.’ Reminiscing with fam-ily is great, do what you can with family while you can.

I sat in the RZR for a couple of hours the other day to get a feel

for the seating position and where the steer-ing wheel should be mounted and the hand controls. Everything Heino and Rick are making is custom to fit us. You just can’t sit behind the wheel for five minutes and say it feels good, you have to give it some time so you can determine how things should be

mounted after all we will be in the machine for 20 plus hours.

As we get closer to departure day I am going to continue to reinforce our three goals: Raise $25,000 for the Rick Hansen Foundation in sup-port of Rick’s 25th Anniversary of the Man in Motion World Tour; create awareness about

the abilities of people with disabilities; and inspire just one person to reach forward and strive to achieve their goals, no matter how impossible they may think they are.

As my friend Dennis Beebe says, “It is not about the disability, it is about the possibili-ties.”

Live the Dream.

Passion. It’s one thing I want for my life. I want to feel pas-sionately about the one I love, to work passionately for some-thing and to find my one true passion in life.

Being back in Williams Lake for the last few months it amazes me how many passionate peo-ple I meet, whether it is Mayor Cook who is about passionate about this town, Dr. Ray Sanders who is passionate about TRU, or Denise Thompson who is passionate about her community out in Wildwood.

I want to live my life full of passion and I want to live each day like there will be no more. With Steve Jobs passing away earlier this month, Facebook has been flooded with quotes from him. Many of the status updates referred to liv-ing each day, as it was your last and I like that

mentality. I never want to get to a point in my life and look back and think why did I do that, why didn’t I do this and so on. I want to have no regrets. So far I am close to find-ing my passion in life, but I definitely don’t feel as if I have found it just yet.

I think I need more life experience, maybe a spur of the moment trip to New York, maybe that dream of being a fashion design-er isn’t dead, maybe I’ll write for a newspaper the rest of my life. I really don’t know, but I do know that I am 24 and I am not ready to settle on one thing just yet.

I love Williams Lake and it will for-ever be my home. I get goose bumps lis-tening to Mayor Cook talk about the future, and the same when Dr Sanders speaks about where TRU will be in the next 10 years. I want to see Williams

Lake grow, I even want to help, I am just not sure how I fit in just yet. And I really can’t wait to say ‘I am from that fantastic town that has grown beyond the point anyone could have imagined years ago.”

One thing I do know is that I love writing and working for this paper. The people I work with are passionate, the people I meet are passionate, and I do truly love this town.

Not to say that there aren’t a few more adventures still in store for me before I settle down. I’d still love to backpack Europe, work overseas, perhaps intern at a magazine in Toronto or New York and I still have plans for more school.

Besides believing in living each day to its fullest, I also believe no experience is a waste of time and you can learn important skills all the time that

can be useful in the future.

I had the pleasure of meeting with two ladies this past week who are truly passion-ate about what they are doing and I love interacting with peo-ple who are full of pas-sion.

I am passionate right now about doing the very best I can in reporting and writing stories for this paper and every week I learn a little bit more. I can say without a doubt that the lesson last week was about proof reading and you bet-ter believe that I will never let another story go to press without a last look over.

Life is full of les-sons and it is what you learn and how you move forward that is important. I am not done learning here at the Advisor and I plan on learning a whole heck of a lot more before my next learn-ing experience starts.

Thompson Rivers University, and the city of Williams Lake are fortunate to have a cheerleader like Dr. Ray Sanders in our community.

The energetic Sanders wants the University to thrive and that is what he tells everyone who will listen. The Dr enthu-siastically suggested Williams Lake is going to move forward and he wants TRU North University to play a role in future devel-opment of this com-munity.

Ray Sanders wants to introduce new pro-grams at the University, attract more local stu-dents, and also make it inviting for those around BC, across Canada and reach out to those around the

world.It is an ambitious

program, however I suspect Dr Ray Sanders is ‘up for the job’ and we in Williams Lake and the University community will be the benefactors of his knowledge and enthu-siasm. Go Ray!

The political land-scape in Williams Lake is becoming more intriguing with the addition of councillor

wannabees sprouting a little more excitement.

I’m hearing Richard Vollo is once again going to try for a seat on coun-cil... Mike Jacobson, Paul Kondola, Steve Forseth, Ivan Bonnell, will take on the four current councillors.

Whew, the slate thickens and we have until Friday the 14th for those wishing to stand up and try for one of the top posi-tions in the land. There probably will be more people come forward to try a kick at the council can, come this Nov 19th, voting day.

I have a pretty good idea how much extra sweat is required each month for a council seat and the abuse that comes with the job. I do commend those

citizens for wanting to heavily invest in town, and be a part of City Council

Tom Barr will not run this time. Thanks Mr Comer, Tom Barr, for you dedication, for a job well done and thanks for the dedica-tion of your time.

There are will also be a vacancy or three for each of the ‘other’ head honcho’ politi-cal jobs at the CRD and School District 27. More on these folks later.

Congratulations to Board Chair of School District 27, Wayne Rodier, to five time elected Pete Penner and to Bruce Mack for your fine contribution and many long hours to the Board of School District 27. They are hanging up their

Education Spurs.Susan Lampert, the

chief over at the |British Columbia Teachers Federation is sound-ing a lot like the NDP Opposition these days, suggesting government has cut taxes in the last ten years, they are giving big business too many breaks and the working stiffs are going to hell in a handbasket. She says, if we didn’t reduce taxation on cor-porations and those with highest incomes, go to business, there would be more money for education and the programs wanted by her Union.

Now does that not sound like Adrian Dix or one of the other NDP leaders shouting out the same mantra for the last twenty or so years.

Local students were given the chance to network with key industry leaders in the community last week at the third annual Williams Lake Job Fair.

Along with students from the local high schools, the job fair was open to anyone who wished to come down to the Gibraltar room to meet potential employers, drop off resumes, or research career goals.

Rhonda Labelle, Executive Director for the Cariboo Chilcotin Aboriginal Training

Employment Center whom is the main sponsor of the job fair says events like this bring the community at large together.

“We want to promote local jobs in our community,” said Labelle. “The youth are the future of the labour force, we need to give them the infor-mation they need to make decisions.”

Labelle said on the first day they had more than 600 people come through the fair, many of them high school students, and there was lots of entertainment and prizes given out.

This was the third event like this one that CCATEC had put on and Labelle says they welcome participation from any local employer for future events.

“Having local business sup-port is critical,” said Labelle

Courtney Taylor PhotoTolko had representatives at the job fair last week, HR manager Trudy Temple and Safety Supervisor Ed Ma were on hand to pro-vide anyone interested with information about Tolko Industries.

Educating parents on cyber safetyAngie MindusCariboo Advisor

The District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC) is hosting a cyber-space safety presentation later this month to help protect children from the risks involved in using social networking and the Internet by educating their parents.

DPAC Parent Education Coordinator Shelley Wiggins, who is organizing the event, says social networking and the Internet in gen-eral is often voiced as a topic of concern by local parents.

“We are trying to give the par-ents some tools they can use so they are better-equip to deal with the risks associated with these new and ever-changing technologies.”

Technologies speaker Steve Dotto will be giving an informative presen-tation called Cyber Safe which will outline the risks of social network-ing and Web 2.0 for youth and the tools parents need to come to terms

with both the dangers and their role in protecting their children.

“Without fail the response of our audience is shock, concern and determination to take on the responsibility of our generation, namely protecting our youth in cyberspace,” Dotto says of his pre-sentation.

If this event is well attended, Wiggins says DPAC is hoping to bring in more speakers on a num-ber of topics suggested by parents. Parents wishing to request a future topic may write on the DPAC’s website at [email protected] or to www.sd27dpac.com.

Tickets for Cyber Safe with Steve are $3 in advance available at Cariboo Memorial Complex, or $5 at the door. The presentation begins at 7 p.m. on October 26, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Gibraltar Room.

Parents are urged to leave their children at home due to the adult content of the program.

Cancer Society for the CCRHD’s contri-bution of $60,349 to the Kordyban Lodge Campaign in Prince George. This amount was determined based

on a formula of $1 for every resident of the Cariboo Chilcotin.

Construction on this facility began in July, 2011 and is expected to be fully operational

by the end of 2012. A total of 36 beds will be available to serve cancer patients and their fami-lies from communities throughout Northern BC.

25,000 Sq. FT. FACILITy

Once completed, Kordyban Lodge will be a 25,000 square-foot facility in Prince George, offering com-

fortable and affordable accommodations for cancer patients and their caregivers. Guests of the Lodge will be provided with ameni-ties such as access to 24

hour nursing support, three nutritious meals a day, wellness and sup-port programs and the opportunity to connect with others who are fac-ing similar issues.

Those bikinis and trunks may now be tucked away in a draw-er, but if you’ve got the hottest body around, we have a place you can wear them.

Fit City Athletica is hosting the first annual ‘Hottie Body’ contest in Williams Lake com-ing up in November.

After brainstorm-ing with a girlfriend, Fit City owner Teena Olson came up with

the idea for the contest in hopes of bringing the community togeth-er to have some fun.

“We also want peo-ple to know that we have something other than just the gym, we have clothes as well,’

said Shelley Green, Fit City Employee.

And Fit City doesn’t just carry regular clothes; they carry specialized boutique clothing.

“It’s items you can’t get at Zellers, Walmart

or other big box stores,” said Olson.

The deadline to enter the ‘Hottie Body’ contest is October 20th, and there is a non-refundable $20 entry fee, which includes 10 free tans.

The girls at Fit City would like to stress that the contest is open to both women and men ages 19 and over since the event is going to be held at Oliver Street Bar and Grill.

“The first prize is a 1 year free gym mem-bership and $250 cash, which I think is a pret-ty nice incentive,” said Olson.

Along with the title of Fit City’s Hottie Body, the free gym membership and the cash is a one-month bronze-tanning pack-age according to Olson.

The runner up will receive a free three-month gym member-ship and one-month bronze-tanning pack-age.

For all the non-con-testants in the crowd there will be tons of great prizes such as a pair of Miss Me jeans, a Guess purse and cloth-ing from Lady Dutch just to name a few.

During intermis-sion, Olson will show

off her boutique cloth-ing she has available in store with a fashion show.

So if you think your body is the hot-test thing around then prove it at Oliver Street Bar and Grill Saturday November 12.

Forks Over Knifes movie coming soonArticle submitted

The documentary Forks Over Knives which explores the ben-efits of a plant-based diet debuts in Williams Lake at the Thompson Rivers University Cafeteria on October 19 at 7 p.m. This film will be pre-sented free, courtesy of Adventist Health and could save your life.

Forks Over Knives is a new documentary that explores the idea that the majority of the degenerative diseases -- heart disease, dia-betes, cancer, etc. that are plaguing Canadians can be avoided, or even reversed by simple life-style changes.

Did you know that for 50 per cent of per-sons who suffer a heart attack, the first symp-tom is sudden death, with no warning? This new movie examines the science that choos-ing the right foods is cheaper and better that going under the knife—thus the name Forks Over Knives.

As this documentary reveals, highly esteemed nutritional research-ers have compiled eye-

opening information that proves we are get-ting sicker and more obese than our health care system can handle. Unfortunately, the con-ventional methods of dealing with disease often have harmful side effects and are ineffec-tive for patients.

What if we could halt, or even reverse most if not all of the degenerative diseases that afflict us? This Forks Over Knives documentary reveals the stunning healing power of a plant-based diet. You can view movie

trailers: www.forks-overknives.com.

In the process of tackling this idea, Forks Over Knives, docu-ments the incredible journeys of two inno-vative researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn.

Campbell and Esselstyn didn't know one another at the time, but their revelations led them to oversee multi-ple revolutionary stud-ies, one of which took place in China and is still among the most thorough health-relat-ed investigations ever

undertaken.This profound docu-

mentary will not only convince you of the value of a plant-based diet consisting of whole foods, it could eas-ily change your life and health in the process. Plan now to see the film, Oct. 19, 7 p.m. at the TRU Cafeteria. This outstanding film is sponsored as a free community service by Adventist Health, Thompson Rivers University and a num-ber of local community sponsors.

If anyone has ques-

tions they can call TRU at 250-392-8000 and after hours 250-398-9188. Full info including a full list of local sponsors on our website: www.silverhill-sontheroad.com/forks

kind of an accident how I ended up here,” said Stasica.

She recalls thinking back to when she was young, visiting her mom in the hospital when she was just 14 years old. She says she recalls try-ing to help an elderly lady in the bed across from her mom who was moaning and groaning.

“I knew she wanted something, and I did the best I could to try and figure it out,” said

Stascia. “She held my hand and slowly drift-ed off to sleep, like she felt better just knowing someone was there.”

Flash forward to the fall of 2001, and Stasica is working in the mail-room at the Tribune, and has the opportunity to go down to Abbotsford to visit a co-worker who was diagnosed with can-cer and was dying.

Before Stasica saw Diane in the hospital, another friend warned her of how she looked, and about the smell in

the room.“I walked in the room

and the smell was indeed awful and she didn’t look the same, she looked like she was dying, but with-in a couple of minutes that all went away and it didn’t matter.”

Stasica recalls getting very angry at the nurse because she noticed there was no one com-ing into the room to check on her friend.

She was told that the nurses were having a hard time going in the room because Diane was quite young. Stasica said she told them she didn’t care about the staff and told them they should be at least going in and pretending to do some-thing.

“There are still things you can do to comfort the person even if you can’t save them,” said Stasica.

So she stayed with her friend for three days and sung songs and lul-labies and things like that. She says she didn’t really know what she was doing - she just had an overwhelming need to comfort her.

After Diane passed away, Stasica was thanked by her mom for helping Diane feel better, some-thing Stasica didn’t know she had done, but she also thanked the family for allowing her to help Diane because she now knew what she wanted to do for a career.

As soon as she was

back home she quit her job and went straight to the Deni House and asked if she could visit with anyone who need-ed visiting.

“I told them to give me the worst, give me the ones nobody wants,” said Stasica. “Give me the ones who have nobody, those are the ones that maybe I can help.”

It wasn’t long before Stasica had to go back to her job, she could only last so long without pay,

but she was volunteering during the day.

After a couple of months the woman she had been paired up with passed away and Stasica went to the funeral and contacted the family and told them how much she had liked their mom.

“I found I fit in the environment,” said Stasica. “I was of service and that’s what I wanted to feel.”

One of the women at Deni House told Stasica that she should do hospice work, and when Stasica asked what hospice was she was told that they only deal with people who are dying.

“I thought ‘that’s where I should be,” said Stasica.

“I went straight to the hospice office and asked for an application to be a volunteer.”

A week before her training was done, Stasica’s dad passed away unexpectedly and she was not allowed to sit with any clients.

“And that broke my heart,” said Stasica. “At the time, they felt that I needed time to deal with my lose before I could help others.”

Stasica said she has since changed that thought.

As it was, she ended up helping Kate McDonough, the execu-tive director, with assess-ments and arranging the volunteers.

“And I’ve been in this position ever since.’

Stasica did the job as a volunteer for three years while working nights at the mailroom at the Tribune.

“There were some days I was changing my clothes while on the phone in the office,” said Stasica.

Stasica said seven years ago, funding was found to make her posi-tion into a paying one, and she is paid six hours a day, but says she stays for as long as she is need-ed.

“She is a part-time staff, but works all hours and is totally dedicat-ed to our clients,” said McDonough. “She has definitely made a huge difference in many peo-ple’s lives.”

Stasica says the job is a little more than she bargained for in the beginning, but that it’s turned out.

“It does feel good to be of service, and what more can you ask for than to have made a difference in someone’s life,” said Stasica.

As volunteer servic-es coordinator, Stasica meets with all the cli-ents, writes the assess-ment, and arranges all the volunteers, but she says she wishes she could spend more time with the clients.

“When I retire, I am going to be a hospice volunteer.”

It may not sound like far, but 1.5 kilometre is a pretty good distance to run -- just ask all the elementary students who ran in this year’s District Cross Country Run held at Boitanio Park last week.

The park was turned into a racecourse with loud, cheering spec-tators Tuesday and Thursday afternoon as children aged eight-to-ten-years-old and 11 and 12-year-olds raced for top spots.

Both afternoons were gorgeous blue-sky days with the sun shining down and both days had great parent turnout to come cheer on the children.

This year there were students from across the district, with run-ners from as far away as Alexis Creek.

“I think it’s the best event the School District holds for school spirit,” said Kelly Feldinger, a parent. “It’s good for them to see kids from other schools.”

Grade 6 student Faith Meyers said she wanted to give the run a try even though she doesn’t love running because her friend Emma Feldinger who does like to run con-vinced her to partici-pate.

The girls said they trained for a week for the run at school and were looking forward to the race.

First place finish-ers for Thursday’s races were Kassidy Herrick from Nesika for the 11-year-old girls, Dillion Derose from Kwaleen Traditional for the 11-year-old boys, Faith Outhouse from Cataline for the 12-year-old girls, and Connley Pinette from Sacred Heart for the 12-year-old boys.

First place finishers from Tuesday’s races were Tanner Dyck from Kwaleen Traditional for the 10-year-old boys, Elizabeth Cassler from Mountview for the 10-year-old girls, Jack Henderson from 150 Mile for the nine-year-old boys, Paige Outhouse from Cataline for the nine-

year-old girls, Finnely Enns from Mountview for the eight-year-old boys and Claire Brown from 150 Mile for the eight-year-old girls.

Runners who placed from first to twentieth received ribbons, while the rest of the runners received ‘I survived’ rib-bons.

Older students called ‘rabbits’ ran ahead in each race to lead the way for the younger runners. In the 11-year-old girls’ race the ‘rabbit’ had a hard time staying in front with Kassidy Herrick overtaking her near the end. Grant Gustafson, Nesika Elementary principal, thinks she may have even broken a school record with her

time.Another ‘rabbit’ that

had a hard time keeping ahead was the one run-ning with the 12-year-old boys. Pinette man-aged to overtake his ‘rabbit’ as well near the end of the race.

Over all it was a great couple of days accord-ing to Gustafson and he said that was in part to a great turnout of spectators and the great weather they received.

Courtney Taylor PhotoLast Thursday after-noon saw the District Cross Country races for 11 and 12 year olds, here 11 year-old Adriane Kennedy runs hard to keep her place in the pack.

(NC)—Unless you plan to hibernate this winter, you will inevita-bly be faced with some challenging road con-ditions in the coming months.

“Knowing how to handle the road in harsh weather is one of the most important steps in keeping you and your family safe,” says Bill Hume vice-president of Hankook Tire Canada. Hume notes that sim-ple preparations and preventative measures can enhance safety and reduce the stress associ-ated with winter road conditions.

These three impor-tant winter driving tips can help get you through many slippery situations:

1. Keep your dis-tance: Always leave plenty of space between you and the vehicle in front of you. Doing so will give you enough time to brake in a con-trolled manner and

time to react in case of an emergency. Stay vigilant of road con-ditions, and increase the space if you detect or suspect black ice. A general rule of thumb is that if there are ici-cles on your windshield wipers or frost on your side view mirrors, there is a good chance that there is black ice on the road.

2. Understand your brakes: If your car is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS), hit the brakes and let the system work for you: your ABS will pump the brakes at timed intervals without locking your wheels, enabling you to stop safely. It’s normal to feel pulsation in the brake pedal, that’s the ABS working. A lot of peo-ple have a tendency to release the brakes as the ABS kicks in; do not lift your foot until you come to a stop. If your vehicle is not equipped

with ABS, pump your brakes to avoid locking your wheels.

3. Use appropri-ate tires: Studies have shown that at -14 C all-season tires lose

up to 60 per cent of their grip compared to winter tires. Unlike all-season tires, winter

tires are made with spe-cial rubber compounds that stay soft even at very low temperatures.

A softer tire will stick to the road better, and give your vehicle more traction for optimal control. Some winter tires like the Hankook Winter i*cept evo are designed for high per-formance and offer a smooth ride with great grip on icy roads. If you plan on doing a lot of driving in the winter months having the right winter tire will make a big difference. For more information on how winter tires function, speak to your local tire dealer.

It is also important to stay alert, slow down, and stay in control—the three key elements of safe winter driving. Drive according to highway and weather conditions, and keep an eye on your car’s main-tenance throughout the season. Be prepared and don’t let winter ruin your road trips.

More information is available online at www.hankooktire.ca.

Winter tires like the Hankook Winter i*cept evo are ideal for slippery winter roads - offering maximum steering response and stability.

(NC)—Follow these fuel-efficient driving tips from Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) and make fewer trips to the gas station this winter:

• Avoid aggressive driving behaviours, such as quick starts and

hard stops—that can increase your fuel con-sumption by up to 25 per cent;

• Drive at the posted speed limit—decreasing your cruising speed from 120 km/h to 100 km/h will decrease fuel con-

sumption by approxi-mately 20 per cent;

• Don't idle—idling for more than 60 sec-onds uses more fuel and produces more CO2 compared to restarting your engine;

• Use cruise con-trol—on dry, flat, wide-open highways, use cruise control to help improve fuel efficiency by maintaining an even and steady speed;

• Take the most fuel-efficient route—routes with fewer stop lights and less traffic may use less fuel than shorter routes with more stop

lights and heavy traffic;• Measure your

tire pressure once a month—under-inflated tires by 56 kilopascals (eight pounds per square inch) can increase your vehicle's fuel consump-tion by up to four per cent;

• Calculate your mileage—set your trip odometer every time you fill up and chal-lenge yourself to go far-ther and farther on each tank of fuel. NRCan has a handy online fuel calculator on their web-site at www.vehicles.nrcan.gc.ca.

How to get the most out of every tank of fuel

Some people may look at curling and see a sport that can come across as somewhat bor-ing, but when you take a closer look what you find might sur-prise you.

The Williams Lake Curling Club held an open house last Saturday encouraging lake-city residents to come out and try the sport for them-selves to see what it’s all about.

Laura Ball has been curling for the past 15 years and was recently brought on as a coordinator, a posi-tion she says she is excited about.

“I love to curl and any opportunity to expand the club is great,” said Ball.

For Ball, the sport has become a family affair with her two daughters Jessica and Michelle curling for the past six or so years at the club with her.

The girls say they love the challenge of the sport, and though it may look easy not everybody can pick it up.

“I like that (curling) is laid

back, but that there is a chal-lenge to it,” says Michelle.

Their mom compares the game to chess and says it’s a sport for kids who like a chal-lenge.

“It’s a strategic game of try-ing to (oust) your opposition,”

said Ball.For newcomers to the sport

it can be a little intimidating with all the experienced play-ers seeming to talk in another language between getting into the ‘hack,’ calling for a ‘chip,’ and all the yelling of ‘hard’ or ‘hurry.’ But the Ball girls reas-sure everyone that once they get the hang of it, curling is a lot more fun than it looks on television.

For long time curler John Shepard, it’s all about the com-radery of the game that he loves the most.

“It doesn’t look like a whole lot of fun, but when you get on the ice it is a lot of fun with the social aspect added in,” says

Shepard.Shepard has been

curling for 40 years, sponsoring ice for the last six years plus she currently curls with three different leagues.

She said the open house was about show-ing off the sport to newcomers, and Bert Cons had the pleasure of doing just that. He showed 13-year-old Devon Hill the basics.

“We got some curl-ers out today, and if we can keep them interested like they are

today, then they’ll do pretty good,” says Cons.

Cons says curling is a great winter sport for all ages.

Ball says in Williams Lake more kids play hockey, but she’s hoping she can convert some to at least come try curling.

“I love curling and I think everyone should at least try it,” says Ball. “You wont know if you like until you get out and try.”

The Williams Lake Stampeders split their two away games this past weekend with a very short bench. The Stamps had 14 players

on Saturday for their game in Smithers and only 13 players for their Sunday match in Hazelton.

The Stamps put

forth a great effort but lost to the hometown Steelheads with a score of 6-4 on Saturday night. On Sunday, with just 13 players,

the Stamps offence pounced on the Hazelton Wolverines and notched eight goals, winning with a score of 8-3.

STAMPEDERS HOME GAME

The now 2-1 Stamps will be back at home this weekend for a single home weekend

game Saturday evening against the visiting Hazelton Wolverines.

The Stampeders and Quesnel Kangaroos will then renew their

long-time rivalry the following weekend, as Quesnel will make the journey south to play Williams Lake October 22.

“Fitness is a lifestyle,” says Rozanne Friesen of Fitness By Design “And my goal is to help peo-ple experience the ben-efits of exercise, eating right, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.”

She does this through personal train-ing at her studio, Fit City and even in her client’s home. Her cli-ents find that Rozanne helps bring a balance of health, happiness, and productivity to their lives.

Rozanne’s private studio provides a “judg-

ment free” and a “drama free” zone. Come as you are. No judgments are made and everything is confidential. The goal

of Fitness by Design is to provide motivation, encouragement, and create exercise programs that will help each cli-ent meet their individu-al goals. Whether you are looking for a kick in the butt to get back on track or are looking for help setting up a long-term fitness and eat-ing regimen Fitness By Design can help you.

All training sessions are an hour of training with Rozanne with the added option of extra time for cardio. Every client is given an assess-ment to establish their initial fitness and to help establish realistic goals. Rozanne then develops a fitness pro-gram and schedule that is based on your fitness level, goals and abilities. Exercises within your program are changed from day to day so that you don’t get bored and your body keeps responding and improving.

For women who want to have a good time and have some laughs all while still

working out Fitness By Design offers Fitness Pole Dancing. These new classes have a blend of the original classes with the added benefits

of bodyweight resis-tance training. This increases the intensity of the exercise while still having fun in a group environment.

Whatever your fit-ness level, Rozanne can help you set realistic goals and her studio can provide you with a safe place to achieve

those goals. For more information call her at (250)392-0064 or check out her website www.f i tnesswithro-zanne.com.

HOME PLAN OF THE WEEK

(NC)—As the cold weather approaches and the first snow-flakes begin to fall, it is important to ensure your home is winter-ready. There are plenty of simple ways to win-terize your home with-out breaking the bank,

with a positive effect on lowering your heating bills.

Interior: First, inspect your furnace and replace the filter. Stock up on furnace filters and be sure to change them every month. Next, have your fire-

place cleaned so it will be ready for use. Screen the top of your chimney to keep out rodents and birds and store firewood in a dry place away from the outside of your home. Inspect the mortar between bricks to make sure that your

fires remain contained within the hearth. And, ensure all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors have had the battery replaced.

Exterior: Examine the exterior of your home for cracks and crevices, which could allow cold air to seep inside. Apply weather-stripping around doors and caulk windows. Homes with basements and attics are prone to cold drafts. In base-

ments, consider cover-ing window wells with plastic wrap. When the warm weather returns, you can remove the wrap. Warm air rises, so adding extra insulation to your attic will ensure the warmth stays where it’s needed. “These small, but important steps can make a huge difference on your heat-ing bill,” says Yvonne Ratigan, a senior execu-tive with Royal LePage Canada. “Time and a

little money spent in the fall, can pay big div-idends in the winter.”

Garden: Prune trees and shrubs to minimize potential for damage by snow, particularly those that hang close to the home. Clear out plant-ers and store for spring and dust plant bulbs with bone meal. Drain all garden hoses and shut off outside water. If we enjoy a warm day, it may be a good time to seal the driveway or

deck.These simple steps

can help you to enjoythe winter withoutfear of damage to yourhome. Be prepared, andembrace all that thewinter has to offer.

NEW VIDEO RELEASES

THE HELPBased on one

of the most talked about books in years and a #1 New York Times best-selling phenomenon, The Help stars Emma Stone as Skeeter, Academy Award®–nominated Viola Davis as Aibileen and Octavia Spencer as Minny—three very differ-ent, extraordinary women in Mississippi during the 1960s, who build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project that breaks soci-etal rules and puts them all at risk. From their improbable alliance a remarkable sisterhood emerges, instilling all of them with the courage to transcend the lines that define them, and the realization that sometimes those lines are made to be crossed—even if it means bringing everyone in town face-to-face with the chang-ing times.

Don’t be afraid to make a move if you aren’t happy with your emotional situation. Opportunities will develop through those you encounter while attending organizational events. You will have the ability to capture the interest of others.

If you put your mind to it, you could entertain or host a multitude of social events. Involvement in fi nancial schemes will be followed by losses. Travel may be confusing.

Your attitude could be up and down like a yo-yo. You are best not to discuss your personal life with others. You may have more people on your domestic scene than anticipated.

Consider applying for a job in another part of the world. You may be in love today, but who knows what tomorrow may bring. You will be able to make changes regarding your living arrangements.

Do some research if you want to fi nd information that you can apply against the opposition you face. You should be promoting your ideas. Emotional deception is evident.

You need to do your own thing and work on making yourself the best you can be. You can get others to do things for you but be sure not to overpay them or lend them money. Helping children may be rewarding and challenging.

New love connections can be made through group associations. Friends or groups that you’re affi liated with may want you to contribute more cash than you can really afford. Take time to fi nd out all you can.

Opportunities to get involved in investment groups will payoff. Visit friends or relatives who have been confi rmed. Your suggestions for fund raising events will be well received.

Quarrels will erupt if you get into philosophical debates with friends. You will be looking for creative ways to make a little extra cash. Your intuition will be right on. Follow your feelings in matters pertaining to fi nancial investments.

Residential moves should be considered carefully. Your attitude could be up and down like a yo-yo. Avoid getting involved with married individuals.

Be sure to take time for old friends or relatives you don’t get to see that often. Involvement in groups will be favorable and lead to valuable information. Group endeavors will provide you with entertainment.

Try to curb your bad habits, and compromise if your partner gives you an ultimatum. After all, they may have valuable information to pass on. You have the ability to motivate others.

A nice vegetarian dish that everyone should enjoyThis is Vegetarian

month and so I thought perhaps a nice vegetar-ian dish that everyone should enjoy, would be apropos.

I did some research on Vegetarianism, and didn’t find anything new except one saying I thought was kinda cute. ‘Being a Vegetarian means never having to say you’re sorry to a cow’!

Some vegetarians will eat eggs and not dairy products while others will have dairy foods but no eggs, and raw vega-nisim which includes only fresh and uncooked fruits, nuts, seeds and vegetables. Veggies can only be cooked up to a certain temperature.

I could be a vegetar-ian for a while but then I suspect somewhere down the line I would probably like a nice piece of beef tenderloin, or a juicy chunk of salmon or perhaps some tasty chicken thighs.

I found a recipe that I have not cooked as yet, but will before the end of the month as a salute to Vegetarians and

then I can say I practised Veganisim for at least one day.

Vegan Shepherd’s Pie...meatless comfort food!1 onion chopped3 cloves of garlic

minced3 stocks of celery

chopped3 carrots chopped1 sweet potato diced½ cup of peas1/4 cup soy sauce or

tamari1/4 tsp of Worcestershire

sauce1 cup of dried brown

lentils2 cups vegetable stock2 bay leaves2 cups fresh spinach

choppedFor the topping...2 large potatoes diced

and steamed½ cup vegetable broth

or soy milk...I would use the soy milk as that I what I drink daily.

Salt to tasteDice potatoes, leav-

ing skin on for more nutrition and fiber if desired. Salt lightly and steam for about 20 minutes or until pota-toes are very soft. In a large pan over medium heat, saute onion and garlic with a little non-stick cooking spray, add vegetable broth, then cook for about 3 or 4 minutes until onions become translucent. Put in celery, carrots and sweet potatoes, adding more liquid as necessary. Then put in peas, soy

sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lentils, stock and bay leaves. Bring to a boil then reduce to low and cover, simmer for approximatley 25 min-utes until lentils are ten-der. Preheat oven to 350. While veggies are sim-mering, mash steamed potatoes wtih soy milk. Salt to taste. At this point you could put in some rubbed rosemary leaves. Once lentils are tender, remove from heat and take out Bay leaves. Stir in spinach, the pour into a casserole dish. Top with mashed potatoes and bake for thirty min-utes. Turn the broiler on for the last few minutes for a nice crispy topping. Bye for now and Goood cooking.
