Questions about Campfires, Forest Fires and Fire Bans?

Visit the following web sites for information:

B.C. Wildfire Management Branch: http://www.bcwildfire.ca/

Current Fire Bans: http://bcwildfire.ca/hprScripts/WildfireNews/Bans.asp

Today, Port Alice is at a crossroads like never before. There

are many potential future scenarios: a thriving small mill

town, a retirement community, a tourism hot spot, and

more. What future do residents want to see?

What future is realistic?

What can Port Alice do to influence that future?

How have other places managed an economy in transition?

The Village of Port Alice is working with William Trousdale,

Colleen Hamilton and others from EcopPlan International to

develop an economic development strategy that answers these questions and is grounded in the values of

residents, the economic realities of the area, and the capacity and resources available.

Throughout the next few months, EcoPlan will analyze demographics and existing data, interview

residents, business owners and other stakeholders, and hold a community open house to acquire this

information.

Progress reports will be published in future editions of the Port Alice Rumble Sheet newsletter.

Port Alice’s economic development strategy, and the plans to implement it, will be presented in early 2016.

Visit on Club Night, September 16th, where EcoPlan will have a booth and welcomes your input!

Also please join us at the Community Open House hosted by EcoPlan on September 29th.

Attention Boaters

Get ready for boating season by getting your pleasure craft

licence and proof of competency now.

Pleasure craft licence

In Canada, all recreational boats with a motor of 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) or more must have a pleasure craft licence. A pleasure craft licence provides a unique identification number that must be displayed on your boat. This allows Search and Rescue personnel to access important information in an emergency.

Pleasure craft licences are valid for 10 years. Operating a pleasure craft without one may result in a $250 fine.

Proof of competency

Everyone who operates a power-driven boat also needs proof of competency—something that shows they understand the basic rules and how to safely operate a boat. The most common proof of competency is the Pleasure Craft Operator Card. You can get the card by taking a boating safety course in-person or online, and passing the test at the end of the course. For more information on how to get your card or to get an Application for a Pleasure Craft Licence,

visit www.tc.gc.ca/boatingsafety or call the Boating Safety InfoLine at 1-800-267-6687.

Attention Crab & Prawn Trappers DO NOT ATTACH crab or prawn traps to the Rumble Beach Marina docks. Traps found will be removed daily and disposed of.

Marina Manager: 250-209-2665



The Program works on the honour system

with a variety of sizes of PFDs available for

children to borrow. These can be used while

fishing on the dock, or taken on a vessel and

returned to the station near the Rumble Beach

Marina dock or one of the other local marinas

(Jeune Landing or Yacht Club).

The program is brought to Port Alice by The

Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue,

Unit #43 Port Alice, and The Port Alice Marine

Rescue Society, and is funded by the BC

Lotteries Community Gaming Grants.

Safety is a culture that is learned and

we hope that when our children become famil-

iarized with proper use and type of PFDs they

will practice safe boating for a lifetime.

The Port Alice Marine Rescue Society’s

Mission Statement is:

“To Save 100% of Lives at Risk”.

We attempt to fulfill this mission with

our Search and Rescue Unit and by

proactively promoting safe boating.

A special thank you to Dean

and Gordon from Parks Dept.

While traveling to Port Hardy, we had a

blow out on our tire. The boys took over

and changed our tire and rim for us.

They didn’t want payment and said it

was their good deed for the day.

So Thank You Dean & Gordon.

Mount Waddington

Hospice Support Services

Improving the quality of life for those who are living

with or dying from an illness has been the definition

of what hospice services provide since 1975 when

the movement arrived in Canada. North Island

Crisis & Counselling Centre Society is pleased to

announce that Mount Waddington Hospice

Support Services are available in many local

communities. Hospice supports are provided by

volunteers who have received specialized training

and completed criminal records checks.

Currently, hospice support services are available in

community for Port McNeill and Port Hardy resi-

dents. In the fall, hospice supports will be available

in Island Health facilities in those communities and

Eagle Ridge Manor.

The goal of our hospice support program is to

provide comfort, peace, dignity and compassion for

North Island residents and their families. Volunteers

are able to provide support by offering companion-

ship and resources, providing respite for families,

and by sitting vigil at the bedside of loved one.

If you or someone you care about are interested in

hospice supports, please contact the Hospice

Support Program at North Island Crisis & Counsel-

ling Centre Society for more information by calling:

(250) 949-8333

or by Emailing: [email protected].

You can also stop in and pick up one of our
