HELP SEND A CHILD TO

By Stan MitchellIn 2012, the Cariboo’s economy

experienced a second consecutive year of growth.

Continued demand for our mining and forestry products has helped bolster our economy, which, in turn, has led to increas-es in local spending, business growth, housing development, and employment opportunities – for both locals and skilled work-ers from other regions.

According to the BC Check-Up, Regional Edition, last year the Cariboo’s labour market expand-

ed by 4,000 new jobs, bringing overall regional employment to 85,200. This growth surpassed the pre-recession high set in 2007, and the addition of 6,300 new jobs in the goods-producing industry offset the accumulated losses of the past five years.

In 2012, the value of provin-cial softwood lumber exports grew for the third consecutive year, increasing by 9.7 per cent. A rebound in United States housing starts saw lumber prices surge, while the extension of the U.S. softwood lumber deal, and British

Columbia’s victory in the soft-wood lumber dispute, freed up money set aside by B.C. forest companies for penalties.

This was excellent news for our forestry and mining sector, which last year alone saw the addition of 3,200 new workers. Detailed statistics show that employment in both sub-industries expand-ed: forestry and logging by 2,200 jobs, and mining by 1,000 jobs.

However, our region’s forest industry is not without its chal-lenges – there remains a scarcity of loggers, haulers, operators, and

other skilled resource indus-try workers. Job declines in the warehousing and transportation industries also impact resource exports, while competition for a limited supply of truck drivers in Northern B.C. has impacted the logging industry. In an effort to alleviate the problem, the FIRST Logger Training Program was launched in the Cariboo last year, targeting log and chip drivers; to date, 100 per cent of the drivers have been hired.

Economic growth gains momentum

On June 15, members of the 100 Mile Performing Arts Society attended the gala opening of the Theatre Royal in Barkerville, which is produced by Richard Wright and Amy Newman (front row centre).

A note of concern is that while our overall unemployment rate dropped, youth unem-ployment (ages 19 to 24) in our region grew to reach 14 per cent – exactly double that of the general rate. The increased major proj-ect development in our region will result in increased labour demand and it is crucial that our youth receive the proper education and training so they can become skilled workers who have opportuni-ties to capitalize on this growth.

According to the BC Major Projects Inventory, eight projects valued at $788 million are set to proceed next year – a mix of mining, energy, and commercial development.

Three of the proj-ects poised to go ahead next year involve the conversion of wood waste and beetle-killed wood into various forms of energy.

These include: Global Bio-Coal Energy’s Production Plant, val-ued at $30 million, ecoTECH’s Biomass

Project valued at $140 million, and the Alterna Biocarbon Manufacturing Facility valued at $15 million.

Looking forward, as global demand for lumber and minerals increases, the Cariboo’s economy should con-tinue to build positive momentum. However,

challenges relating to the recruitment, train-ing, and retention of workers, in particular, young workers contin-ue.

In order to prevent labour market short-ages from impacting business viability and major project develop-ment in our region, it

is imperative we focus on both retaining, and increasing jobs in our region’s most viable industries.

Optometrists feel that prolonged exposure (over years) to sunlight can damage the lens and plays a role in cataract development. Sunglasses are an effective way of slowing the long-term progress of most cataracts.

Several major projects set to goFrom 1

By Lorie ChortykFeeding wildlife may seem like an

enjoyable way to connect with nature, but it can often lead to serious problems for species, such as squirrels, raccoons, deer and bears.

Wild animals who get used to a hand-out will often take the easy route despite ample natural foods being available – even in urban areas. Although it might seem harmless and cute to feed a squir-rel on a park bench or ducks at the local pond, these activities can lead to increased habituation.

Fed wildlife can become dependent on unreliable food sources and suffer nutri-tionally when given inappropriate foods. Habituated wild animals are also more susceptible to predators and vehicle colli-sions, as they lose their fear of people and the associated flight response.

In other cases, wild animals that have been fed regularly can develop food-seek-ing aggression and can become hostile towards people and pets.

Human carelessness can also lead to urban wildlife becoming habituated. Putting garbage out the evening before pick-up, using non-wildlife-proof bins, keeping pet food outside, leaving fallen

fruit on the ground and littering can lead to situations where wild animals – and their offspring – are killed unnecessarily.

One area where the experts disagree is on the feeding of migratory birds. Whether you agree or disagree with feed-ing birds, it is the most widespread and popular form of human-wildlife interac-tion worldwide.

Although the BC SPCA prefers you to attract birds naturally with native plants, if you are going to feed migratory birds, please:

• Ensure feeders are not accessible to other species, use baffles and “proof ” feeders.

• Keep cats indoors and ask your neigh-

bours to do so as well.• Clean feeders regularly with a 10 per

cent bleach dilution to prevent disease outbreaks.

• Feed only seasonally when natural resources are limited.

• Consult your local bird feed or nature store to determine the right feed for the season and the species.

• Place feeders in protected areas, out of the rain, snow and wind.

• Place feeders as far away from win-dows as possible. If it must be near a window, place it less than one metre away and use UV window decals to prevent injury.

• Don’t ground feed, and clean spilled seeds frequently to avoid attracting rodents.

• Do not use herbicides, fungicides or pesticides in your yard.

• If maintaining a hummingbird feeder in winter, ensure that it does not freeze, as it is likely the only food source for the birds that are using it.

• Never feed ducks, geese, swans, gulls, herons or eagles.

In an America wracked by crime and overcrowded prisons, the government sanctions an annual 12-hour period in which any criminal activity-in-cluding murder-becomes legal. The police can’t be called. Hospitals suspend help. Citizenry regulates itself without thought of

punishment. One family wrestles with who they will become when a stranger comes knocking. When an intruder breaks into James Sandin’s (Ethan Hawke) gated community during the yearly lockdown, his actions threaten to tear a fam-ily apart. Now, it is up to James, his wife, Mary (Lena Headey), and their kids to make it through the night without turning into the monsters they hide from.

The Canadian Celiac Association (CCA) is excited about the rapid expansion of the Gluten-Free Certification Program (GFCP).

It is the only Canadian voluntary certification program designed for manufac-turers of gluten-free food, drug and phar-maceutical products who want to make their product stand out in the clutter of gluten-free claims.

“The market for gluten-free foods in Canada is estimated at approximately $400 million,” says CCA pres-ident Brian Benwell. “The GFCP is about applying global-ly recognized food safety management

principles to ensure safe, gluten-free products for those with celiac disease and gluten sen-sitivity.”

Certified products can bear the trusted mark of the CCA, and the program includes a rigorous verification and regular audits.

The GFCP is a win-win program for manufacturers and retailers because having the backing of the CCA, the trusted national voice of Canadians with celiac disease and glu-ten sensitivity, means consumers will be able to shop with confi-dence.

“Previously, a person with celiac disease going grocery shopping had to scrutinize every label and decode mysterious

ingredient names,” says CCA executive director Peter Taylor.

Many Canadians are not in a position to pre-pare their own food,” Benwell explains.

“Those in the mili-tary, in long-term care facilities, in hospitals, and even at college or university, depend on

others to serve their foods and we want to make sure that all Canadians with celiac disease and gluten sen-sitivity can count on eating safely.”

For more information or to schedule an inter-view, contact the CCA at 1-800-363-7296, or [email protected].

Barkerville’s historic Theatre Royal opened its 2013 season with a gala event and reception on June 15 that began with the Barkerville Heritage Trust AGM at 11 a.m., and ended with a boot-stomping shindig that lasted until well-past 11 p.m. at the House Hotel Saloon.

In between, the cast and crew of Newman & Wright Theatre Company man-aged to squeeze in the premieres of two brand-new musical variety shows and a celebrated a one-woman historical drama, raise some much-appreciat-ed funds in a hilarious charity auction, and receive tremendous applause for their efforts.

“Rehearsals are over, and they have paid off,” said Theatre Royal pro-ducer, Richard Wright.

“We had three standing ovations [on Saturday]: for Lady Overlander, Pathway to

Gold and a foot-stamp-ing, clapping, whistling ovation for The Lafont & Ward Musical Revue.”

Every summer season since Barkerville was first declared a provin-cial heritage site more than 50 years ago, a pas-sionate troupe of actors, singers, dancers and musicians assemble in the historic town to re-

create the joy and creativity of the original Theatre Royal, which was built in 1868. It provided much-needed respite to gen-erations of Cariboo min-

ers, businesspeople, and families throughout the late-19th and early-20th centuries.

“Barkerville has always been fortu-nate enough to attract creative and talented people from all over the world who come together each season to help us celebrate the opening of the Theatre Royal,” said Judy Campbell, Barkerville’s

chief executive officer. “The Barkerville

Heritage Trust is proud to support this tradition, and we are thankful to those members of our local and provincial governments, business-es, and the community at large who support us year after year.”

For more informa-tion about Barkerville’s Theatre Royal Gala, or any of this season’s special events, contact Fairlith Harvey at fhar [email protected] or visit www.barkerville.ca/events.htm.

Triple-threat theatrics meant triple the ovations

The 2887 Rocky Mountain Rangers Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps travelled to Barkerville for the Theatre Royal Gala Opening on June 15. Commanding Officer Capt. Dale Bachmier, left, says it was a season-ending fun and citizenship day.

It is good to be back in the office after the hectic election period, and to continue my work as your represen-tative in the legislature.

By working together, I know we will be able to accomplish a lot in the next four years, and I will continue to make sure the voice of our

rural regions is heard.As the new

Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations for Rural Development, I will work to build the econ-omy in rural British Columbia, something that has always been close to my heart.

I will also work to ensure rural schools get the same opportunities as those in big cities and our farmers and ranch-ers are heard, and will continue to push for the New Prosperity Mine project.

Our government will bring real benefits for

rural areas, through policies, such as the tax exemption on purple gas for our farmers, and by supporting the renewal of our forestry industry through more trade with Asia.

We will also con-tinue to focus on fiscal responsibility and cre-ating the conditions for strong economic growth with initiatives, such as a 40 per cent reduction in the small business tax and the cutting of red tape.

These types of poli-cies will bring many new economic oppor-tunities to the Cariboo and other rural regions of our province.

Now that we are back in the office, I look for-ward to continuing to write this weekly col-umn to keep you up to date on what is happen-ing in our region, in the capital, and around the province.

You can also call or drop by the office any time, as my door is always open. I’m always happy to hear your thoughts or help in any way I can.

A large and presti-gious military aircraft touched down on the tarmac at the South Cariboo (108 Mile) Regional Airport on June 12.

There were 13 crew members aboard the CC-130 Hercules #333, who dropped in for a hamburger and french fries lunch at the 108 Golf Resort.

Airport manager Nick Christianson says when he received the initial request to host the huge aircraft, he wasn’t sure it could safely land on the 5,000-foot landing strip.

“They are quite a lot larger than the Buffalo [military aircraft], which is maybe half that size. So it has much more capability, and much more endurance time.”

In his decade as man-ager, he’s never seen a Hercules with a wing span of 133-feet set down at the airport, where he notes the air-strip is just 75-feet wide.

However, the aircraft also has a Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) capability to operate on as little as a 3,000-foot landing strip, so Christianson adds the airport has more than enough runway.

When arrang-ing the visit, Flight Commander Major Dennis Scharf told him he’d landed there in a Hercules 15 years ago, the airport manager says, so they went ahead with the landing, and all went smoothly.

“I wasn’t sure we could fit a 155,000-pound aircraft into our runway, but it’s obvi-ously made for it, and it is nice to know we have that capability in case of disaster. It can move huge amounts of equip-ment and people really quickly.

“If you take most of the big rescues done across Canada, it’s always the Hercules. That is the workhorse they have for [this pur-pose].”

The top of the tail reaches almost 40 feet

high, he says, adding it is “just an amazing air-craft.

“It was nice to have them here, it really was.”

Christianson explains the Hercules drew quite a crowd of amazed onlookers from around the community, and others phoned in to ask what the unusually loud, rumbling takeoff was all about.

The 54,000-litre fuel tank holds double the volume the airport carries, but since the aircraft has such a long range, he notes there was plenty of fuel on site to top it up, which “definitely helps” the airport.

Stationed at 435 Squadron in Winnipeg, Man., the crew was flying the older 1973 Hercules to its new post-ing in British Columbia, Christianson says.

He adds these older, four-engine fixed-wing turboprop aircraft are refurbished as needed

by the Air Force to keep them ship-shape for flight missions.

It will continue its service as one of 17

Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) CC-130 Hercules aircraft, but now in Western Canada, Christianson

explains.En route, it per-

formed Search and Rescue Technicians (SAR Tech), pilot and navigator mountain training over Kamloops and Lillooet, he notes, including the SAR Techs parachuting into rugged terrain not available on the prairies.

This Hercules can carry up to 78 combat

troops, but is primar-ily used for search and rescue (SAR) missions.

It is also equipped with the new 406 Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) tracking devices, he adds, for picking up signals from downed aircraft or personal locator beacons.

Hefty Hercules swoops into South Cariboo

The CC-130 Hercules taxied down the 108 airport runway dwarfing the small planes usually found there. The humungous aircraft carries a great deal of search and rescue supplies, including snowmo-biles, in large orange cargo crates for air drops.

HELP SEND A CHILD TO

By Stan MitchellIn 2012, the Cariboo’s economy experienced a second consecutive year of growth.

Continued demand for our mining and forestry products has helped bolster our economy, which, in turn, has led to increas-es in local spending, business growth, housing development, and employment opportunities – for both locals and skilled work-ers from other regions. According to the BC Check-Up, Regional Edition, last year the Cariboo’s labour market expand-

ed by 4,000 new jobs, bringing overall regional employment to 85,200. This growth surpassed the pre-recession high set in 2007, and the addition of 6,300 new jobs in the goods-producing industry offset the accumulated losses of the past five years.In 2012, the value of provin-cial softwood lumber exports grew for the third consecutive year, increasing by 9.7 per cent. A rebound in United States housing starts saw lumber prices surge, while the extension of the U.S. softwood lumber deal, and British

Columbia’s victory in the soft-wood lumber dispute, freed up money set aside by B.C. forest companies for penalties.This was excellent news for our forestry and mining sector, which last year alone saw the addition of 3,200 new workers. Detailed statistics show that employment in both sub-industries expand-ed: forestry and logging by 2,200 jobs, and mining by 1,000 jobs.However, our region’s forest industry is not without its chal-lenges – there remains a scarcity of loggers, haulers, operators, and

other skilled resource indus-try workers. Job declines in the warehousing and transportation industries also impact resource exports, while competition for a limited supply of truck drivers in Northern B.C. has impacted the logging industry. In an effort to alleviate the problem, the FIRST Logger Training Program was launched in the Cariboo last year, targeting log and chip drivers; to date, 100 per cent of the drivers have been hired.

Economic growth gains momentum

On June 15, members of the 100 Mile Performing Arts Society attended the gala opening of the Theatre Royal in Barkerville, which is

produced by Richard Wright and Amy Newman (front row centre).

Industry encourages opening up land-use plan

Carole Rooney

Free Press

The potential for opening up the

Cariboo-Chilcotin Land Use Plan

(CCLUP) to mitigate mid-term tim-

ber supply shortages appears to be

gaining momentum.

Cariboo Land Use Strategy

Committee (CLUSC) project leader

Keith Dufresne made a presenta-

tion on timber-supply issues at the

June 11 District of 100 Mile House

council’s committee of the whole

meeting.Mayor Mitch Campsall and

Councillors Dave Mingo, Bill

Hadden, Ralph Fossum and Spence

Henderson were joined at the

meeting by representatives from

West Fraser Mills Ltd. (who sit on

CLUSC), district staff and a handful

of members of the public.

Dufresne began

by noting the Special

Committee on Timber

Supply was formed in

August 2012 by the pro-

vincial government, and

by October, it had devel-

oped Beyond the Beetle:

A Mid-term Timber

Supply Action plan.

Then in April 2013,

the province’s special

committee released a pre-

liminary assessment of

three key land values: old

growth management areas, mule deer

winter range and visual quality areas.

It developed a framework for a

science-based review of sensitive

timber areas and to what degree

changes to the land-

use plans (LUPs) might

affect these three

underlying values, he

explained.The stakehold-

er consultations on

this assessment are

underway, headed up

by Rodger Stewart,

resource management

director for the Ministry

of Natural Resource

Operat ions-Cariboo

Region, Dufresne noted.

However, Dufresne added a sci-

ence-based review may not happen

at all if government deems there

is insufficient support to consider

opening up LUPs.

Locally, the Cariboo Land Use

Strategy Committee (CLUSC) was

formed with forest company rep-

resentatives to develop an industry

perspective on what options are

available to mitigate the drop in

Annual Allowable Cut (AAC) for the

Cariboo-Chilcotin Land Use Plan

area in the mid-term (about the next

50 years).West Fraser’s South Cariboo

woods manager Dan Rollert also

addressed council, encouraging the

local politicians to write a letter of

support for re-evaluating the LUPs.

on the tarmac June 12, so the crew could enjoy lunch at the 108 Golf Resort. See this week’s Cariboo Connector for the story and more pictures.

Maybe we

can look at

this a little

and say, are

these values

thought they

were?

Barkerville Theatre Royal Gala

Opening

Chris Nickless photos

by Chris Nickless

Sunshine, blue skies, bears, fox and enthusiastic theatre goers were all part of the Gala Opening day for Newman and Wright’s Theatre Royal in Barkerville June 15.

The afternoon reception saw dignitaries from Prince George, Quesnel, The Cariboo Regional District and the South Cariboo partake of a sumptuous dim sum buffet while Barkerville’s operations manager James Douglas welcomed guests and told the attendees about some exciting things in the future for the provincial heritage site.

Newman and Wright’s afternoon and evening performances were well attended and proved to be equally, if not greater than performances in years past. No visit to Barkerville is complete without taking in one or more of the Theatre Royal’s most excellent productions.

Well done Richard, Amy and the whole theatre group.At the evening performance, a short but hilarious auction took place, helping the theatre’s

bank account but more importantly providing a highly entertaining bonus for all the attend-ees.

A visit to the Barkerville Historic Site and Theatre Royal should be a bucket-list must for this year.

Street actors are a highlight of a trip back into history in Barkerville.

The Thoughtform opening reception at Parkside Art Gallery was well attended on May 31. The exhibit showcased abstract art in a variety of mediums. Upon their insistence, new Central Interior Regional Arts Council president Rita Giesbrecht posed with some of the artists, including Christa Krisman, left, Laurie Embree, Rita Giesbrecht, Megan Long, Vivian Zuba, Sybille Muschik, Wayne Larsen and Gina Myhill-Jones.

South Cariboo Health Foundation board members Joanne Lapin, left, Chuck Shaw-MacLaren, SCHF president Mary Shennum and Bill Robertson received $1,009.25 from 100 Mile House Community Band director Jack Fellner and string ensemble director Curtis Wolfe. The presentation was made at the conclusion of the band’s year-end benefit concert at Martin Exeter Hall on June 9.

The annual Peter Skene Ogden Secondary School Plant Sale was a garden-er’s paradise for Betsy Herring, left, who had some help from student Tyson Eburne, loading up on bedding plants, June 1. The sale raised money for the school’s agriculture program.

Health Minister Terry Lake issued the following statement in recognition of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on June 15:

“Every senior

deserves to age with dignity and to feel appreciated and respected in their com-munities.

“Elder abuse is every-one’s business, and

British Columbians must be informed about how they can take action to prevent and reduce elder abuse in our society. Elder abuse can take various

forms, including physi-cal, emotional, financial and sexual, and is often under-reported and very difficult to detect.

“We know that achieving our ultimate

goal of reducing the incidence of elder abuse in our communities requires a foundation of strong collaboration and co-ordination.

“As part of our

Families Agenda, we have developed polices that ensure families are protected and feel safe. Together to Reduce Elder Abuse – B.C.’s Strategy works at ensuring seniors, their families and their care-givers have access to information, networks and tools to better rec-ognize, address and respond to abuse.

“This strategy is one of the key deliverables in

our seniors’ action plan. For more information on the seniors’ action plan and the strategy to reduce elder abuse, visit www.seniorsbc.ca.

“If you suspect a senior is being abused, are a senior who is experiencing abuse or are seeking informa-tion about elder abuse, call the Seniors Abuse Information Line at 604-437-1940 or toll free at 1-866-437-1940.”

Lake Of The Trees Bible Camp (LOTT) is hosting a Community Open House on Saturday (June 22) to “give people a taste of what the camp is about,” says camp director Tom McIntosh.

Folks are invited to the camp, which is about a half hour drive northeast of 100

Mile House, for a free barbecue, which starts at noon.

The open house will start after 11 a.m. and run until 3 p.m.

McIntosh says people can enjoy swimming or kayaking, or they may want to try some of our other programs and activities, such as the water

slide and the Blob (waterfront trampo-line).

“People can also meet the staff and tour the facility and just enjoy a really nice part of God’s green creation in the Cariboo.

“We’re on a lakefront to ourselves and

there’s no swimmer’s itch or leaches, and it’s a turquoise emerald when the sun comes out.”

McIntosh says people are welcome to bring their fami-lies and friends to enjoy the afternoon.

More details about, and directions to, the LOTT are available at www.lakeofthe trees.com.

The Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre (CFEC) in 100 Mile House is looking for 10 girls and 10 boys who would like to experi-ence a day and a night at Educo Adventure School free of charge this summer.

CFEC is foot-ing the bill for the youth, who must be between the ages of 12 and 18, through the Community Action Initiative (CAI) fund-ing the centre received around 18 months ago.

CFEC community

development program manager Chris Pettman says the money is com-ing out of the Involve Our Youth program, which was the result of the CAI application.

“The goal is to inte-grate and motivate the youth in our commu-nity. The objective is to increase youth attach-ment and capacity in our community and, thereby, decrease the likelihood of at-risk behaviours.”

Last year, Pettman says, the CFEC youth had the Educo camp

all to themselves and a large number of camp counsellors were dedi-cated to the group. They got to experience the climbing wall, and the ropes, canoeing, meals and play a lot of games, he adds.

“Educo is a leader-ship school and our youth will get a taste of the experience.”

The dates of the over-nighters are July 8 for the boys and July 9 for the girls.

Pettman says youth

will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis and they only need to contact him at (cpettman@cariboo family.org) or Bithia Harris ([email protected]) at 250-395-5155.

Diana ForsterInterlakes youth

group, Teen Space, which is spon-sored by the Cariboo Presbyterian Church, spent May 31-June 2 visiting Barkerville and area.

They were guided by the appropriate biblical theme from Psalm 19, v10 - “God’s teaching is more precious than pure gold.”

Co-ordinated by Coreen Caldwell, the trip included Dawn and Cameron Caldwell, Katelynn and Caleb Duits, Brent Ehlers, Fessica Fauchier and Jason Vogel, as well as chaperones Elaine and Bill Adams and Ken Malm.

The whole exercise, including food and lodging, was excellently planned by Coreen, and the youth had a marvel-lous time.

They spent two nights, with their own

bedding, in the Wells’ curling rink and were able to cook there.

At Barkerville, attrac-tions included the requisite ride on the stagecoach and gold-panning, as well as an exciting show at the famous Theatre Royal. Malm took them to visit the cemetery, and they also visited the old mining town of Stanley where there is another, still well-maintained

cemeterySunday included a

church service at St. Saviour’s Anglican Church, led by a min-ister from Drumheller, Alta.

The youth took a tour of Wells on most interesting bicycles, built for two and four; and they walked to the courthouse at

Richfield, where Judge Begbie holds court in the summer. All in all, it was a highly successful vacation.

Teen Space members voiced their sincere appreciation for the public’s support of their fundraisers, which cov-ered the cost of this much-enjoyed and edu-cational trip.

Teen Space enjoyed Wells/Barkerville

During their recent visit to Barkerville, Teen Space members posed with Judge Matthew Begbie at the court-house at Richfield, where Judge Begbie holds court in the sum-mer.

RCAF SAR Techs are members of elite, highly-trained rescue specialist teams that provide on-scene medi-cal aid and evacuation all over Canada, regard-less of the conditions.

The 435 Squadron also supports SAR units in the United States, and recently participat-ed in a joint mission over Lake Superior.

Their regular patrols range from the B.C.-Alberta border to Thunder Bay, and from the U.S. border to the North Pole.

Hercules aircraft are also used for a wide range of other RCAF missions, including troop transport, tactical cargo airlift (includ-ing vehicles), air-to-air refuelling (AAR) and aircrew training.

It carries 6,200 lbs. in its own fuel and can hold another 38,000 lbs. of fuel in its supply tanks for tactical AAR.

They are so large and cumbersome, Christianson notes they take up a bit of time and a lot of tarmac, so for small, but busy airports,

it can create an obstacle smack in the middle of the action.

However, the mili-tary’s aircraft are always warmly welcomed on the landing strip at 108 Mile Ranch, he explains, and the crews seem to appreciate and enjoy that.

“They are now going to be coming up a lit-tle more often. Major [Scharf] said they’d definitely be back, they were quite pleased.”

With files from Chris Nickless.

Aircraft always welcome at 108 strip

Winners across the board for 108 men’s night

Arlene JongbloetsFree Press

The second flight had Jack Rausch in front with a 40 score. Jamie Crellin was sec-ond at 41 and Bob Wieduwilt took third with a 42.

Al Kregosky won the third flight low gross with a 44, followed by Al Smeds with 46, and

Ken Waite with 47.In low-net compe-

tition, the first flight winner was Al Sidor with a 33 in a count back over Rob Douglas, and Gord Rowat was third with a 34.

Second-flight leader was Bill Stokes with a 32, and Rick Lunsted took second at 34 in a

count back over Shawn Reid.

Dan McCaffrey won the third flight low net with a 34, followed by Ron Tonts at 35, and Peter Messner with a 37.

Long drives were hit by Bob Garrow, Karam Parsad and Gary Desjardine. The long

putt of the day came from Eric Ohlund.

Winners in the closest-to-the-pin com-petition were John McNeil, Met Boyson and Kregosky. Andy Wahnschaff and Rausch shared the deuce pot.

Men’s Club goes out for a round each Wednesday.

The sun shone on 47 women who golfed on Ladies Night at Marmot Ridge, June 12.

Linda Hames was the low score winner and Tamara Van Loon finished with the high score.

Long drive and closest-to-the-pin prizes went to Rene Zelt, Hames, Laurie Hill, Marg Mitchell, Deanna Oenema, Arlene Jongbloets, Darlene Wieduwilt, Becky Pincott and Lynda Lewis.

The enthusiastic TIB JONES & FRIENDS team wore red for the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s Big Bike Ride in 100 Mile House on June 10. Local event co-ordinator April Roberts says her team raised close to $4,000. It was the only one to ride the bike in 100 Mile and they went around twice. Roberts adds another team raised a significant amount of money, but was unable to pull enough riders together to go on the ride.
