The majority of vehicles sto- len in the Williams Lake area in July have not been recovered, said Insp. Warren Brown during a six month crime stats update to city council Tuesday. Of the 12 vehicles stolen in July, 75 per cent have not been located, whereas 95 per cent of vehicles stolen between January and June were located. Typically that means they’ve been dumped in remote areas and will probably be found during hunting season or spring when people are getting out into the bush, Brown explained. “Many of the vehicles that have been stolen we find there to be a tie between ourselves and the Alexis Creek detachment,” Brown said explaining the two detach- ments are working together on some strategies. In other stats, the calls for ser- vice in the first six months were up from 2012 but down from numbers in earlier years, with 5,500 in 2013 compared to 4,900 in 2012. The numbers of break and en- ters to businesses and residents and thefts from vehicle are down from 2012, as is mischief. “This year’s the lowest year we’ve had in the last number of years for mischief, so as far as property crimes go we’re slightly down or status quo.” Domestic violence reports are down from 66 in 2012 to 53 in 2013, although Brown said that only reflects the numbers that are being reported to police. “It’s a difficult category to ac- curately capture because what’s actually occurring.” To tackle its strategic priorities, Brown said the detachment each watch and section has been as- signed certain priorities. “We’ve given them specific tasks and the whole detachment continues to work on our prolific offender program.” Some watches and sections are working specifically with youth, others are working intelligence and surveillance-led projects, in areas of the city identified as higher in crime. Recently the detachment pur- chased some new mountain bikes for patrols. “You’ll see or perhaps not see the police on bikes out there,” Brown said. “Not only do we tend to have police out on the streets during the day, but we also have them out at night in those high crime areas.” The RCMP have also been working more closely with the city’s bylaw officers to clamp down on houses the RCMP get called to repeatedly for noisy par- ties and other “unruly” behaviour. “We’re working with the city bylaw officers to see what we can do to deter that behaviour.” They’ve also worked with sec- ond hand and pawn shops to “cut the head off the dragon” to iden- tify stolen property, Brown said.

The majority of vehicles sto-len in the Williams Lake area in July have not been recovered, said Insp. Warren Brown during a six month crime stats update to city council Tuesday.

Of the 12 vehicles stolen in July, 75 per cent have not been located, whereas 95 per cent of vehicles stolen between January and June were located.

Typically that means they’ve been dumped in remote areas and will probably be found during hunting season or spring when people are getting out into the bush, Brown explained.

“Many of the vehicles that have been stolen we find there to be a tie between ourselves and the Alexis Creek detachment,” Brown said explaining the two detach-ments are working together on some strategies.

In other stats, the calls for ser-vice in the first six months were up from 2012 but down from numbers in earlier years, with 5,500 in 2013 compared to 4,900 in 2012.

The numbers of break and en-ters to businesses and residents and thefts from vehicle are down from 2012, as is mischief.

“This year’s the lowest year we’ve had in the last number of years for mischief, so as far as property crimes go we’re slightly down or status quo.”

Domestic violence reports are down from 66 in 2012 to 53 in 2013, although Brown said that only reflects the numbers that are being reported to police.

“It’s a difficult category to ac-curately capture because what’s actually occurring.”

To tackle its strategic priorities, Brown said the detachment each watch and section has been as-signed certain priorities.

“We’ve given them specific tasks and the whole detachment continues to work on our prolific offender program.”

Some watches and sections are working specifically with youth, others are working intelligence and surveillance-led projects, in areas of the city identified as higher in crime.

Recently the detachment pur-chased some new mountain bikes for patrols.

“You’ll see or perhaps not see the police on bikes out there,” Brown said. “Not only do we tend to have police out on the streets during the day, but we also have them out at night in those high crime areas.”

The RCMP have also been working more closely with the city’s bylaw officers to clamp down on houses the RCMP get called to repeatedly for noisy par-ties and other “unruly” behaviour.

“We’re working with the city

bylaw officers to see what we can do to deter that behaviour.”

They’ve also worked with sec-ond hand and pawn shops to “cut the head off the dragon” to iden-tify stolen property, Brown said.

Crack shacks continue to be the target of the general investigation section.

“I’ve said this in the past that anyone involved with the illicit drug trade shouldn’t be surprised if their door has been kicked down.”

Around 15 prolific offenders commit most of the crime in Wil-liams Lake, Brown said.

“Many of them are in jail, many have moved out of the com-munity, and the ones who haven’t moved out are laying low and we don’t know where they are.”

If they are indoors and laying low, that’s good news. There’s been a real community effort to work with prolific offenders to move on with their lives, he added.

Police seek garbage can culprits

Williams Lake RCMP are look-ing for suspects after a series of fires were set in garbage cans in Williams Lake Wednesday morn-ing.

Police responded to a complaint at 4:25 a.m. on Aug. 14 where several fires were set in garbage cans in the area of Second Avenue North and Litzenburg Crescent.

Nurses union concerned on staffing

When she checked in with local nurses in Williams Lake Tues-day during a tour of the Thompson North Okanagan, B.C. Nurs-ing Union president Debra McPherson heard “it’s tough out there.”

“I think the one impression I was left with was the same as with some of the other smaller communities in this area and that was maintaining adequate staffing levels is really challenging,” McPher-son told the Tribune. “They’re often left working short, working overtime, double shifts and it’s very difficult for the nurses under those circumstances to be sure that they are pro-viding good care.”

McPherson visited nurses working in the provincial government offices, at the hospital, Deni House and Se-niors Village.

“It was true every-where I visited,” she said.

In its most recent contract, the union agreed to moving from a 36 hour to a 37.5 hour work week so the em-ployer could claim some productivity gains.

“That involved a change in everybody’s

work rotation and it’s been tough getting ev-eryone’s schedules go-ing,” she explained.

“But the employer’s not holding up their end of the deal. In ex-change for us doing this they were to increase the number of nurses, that they would pro-vide vacation backfill for our members, and that if people were off sick they would be re-placed.”

That’s not happening so the nurses are feel-ing like they are work-ing more hours and not receiving the help they need.

In 100 Mile House Monday, McPherson learned there is one reg-istered nurse covering well over 60 patients in a long-term care facil-ity.

“She has one LPN helping her, and some care aids. That’s not sufficient when you’ve got seniors with a much heavier chronic disease load than they had be-fore, when there’s de-mentia, aggression and psycho geriatrics. It’s stressing those nurses considerably.”

Some of it is legiti-mate on the employer’s part, McPherson said.

“It is hard to recruit nurses to isolated, small rural communities, but on the other hand, they need to work on

incentive packages to get young people to come and work in those communities and stay there.”

People want regular employment with ben-efits, and will not move to a community for a casual position, she added.

“When we get a chance to talk with the Minister of Health that’s one of the things we’ll be addressing. We really need to see gov-ernment and the em-ployer reciprocate and acknowledge the nurs-es are working more hours.”

Nurses are terri-fied there will be more cutbacks, she added. Health authorities are being told the increase to their budgets will be two per cent next year, and McPherson said six per cent increases made things difficult.

“There were layoffs with six per cent, this year they were increas-ing it by four per cent, so employers are cut-ting back even more. We have the lowest cost of health care per patient in B.C. because we’re staffing so poorly.”

The costs will be paid for in other ways, such as nurse burnout, ill-ness, injury and turn-over.

“I don’t know what will happen if the gov-

ernment gives them two per cent next year. The health authorities will not be able to manage. It won’t cover inflation and it won’t cover pop-ulation growth.”

Tracy Quewezanc, re-gional chair for BCNU Thompson North Okanagan, said there’s an overall theme of overcapacity and un-derstaffing.

“There could be mul-tiple reasons for that. If they don’t supply enough casuals or pre-book those casuals in advance. Or it could be that people aren’t get-ting hired on.”

Retaining new grad-uates is a challenge, Quewezanc said, add-ing 18 months is the point where nurses de-cided if they will stay in a community or not.

“I hear from them regularly that it’s not how they thought it was going to be. They feel overwhelmed and don’t have as much support as they need. Other nurses would be mentoring and helping them, but they are run off their feet.”

The nursing short-age is worldwide and will only get worse, she warned.

For a response from the Ministry of Health see the Tuesday, Aug. 20, edition of the Tri-bune.

A motor vehicle incident at Hodg-son Road and Highway 20 in Williams Lake Tuesday afternoon resulted in two people being transported to hospital for minor neck injuries and whiplash.

At around 2:20 p.m. the RCMP, B.C. Ambulance and Williams Lake fire de-

partment responded to the incident.Police said a turquoise pickup truck

attempting to cross the highway on Hodgson Road collided with a blue van travelling down the highway. The truck rolled onto the driver’s side.

“There was a logging truck in front of the blue van and they were com-ing down Highway 20 there,” Williams Lake RCMP Const. Jeremy Roberts

said. “The pickup truck was coming down Hodgson Road and trying to cross the highway. He said he didn’t see the blue van and went right in front of them.”

There was one person in the truck, and three people in the van, including a young boy.

“No serious injuries which is nice,” Roberts added.

Don Piller suspected poaching was happen-ing in the woods near his trailer at the Hill Side Trailer Park on Dog Creek Road in Williams Lake, but now he’s got proof.

Last week the retired Williams Lake resident was walking his dog in the woods about seven minutes from his home when he spied fresh ATV tracks, followed them and discovered a deer kill.

The deer had been bled and its carcass left to rot.

“I had a lot of prob-lems with this last year,” Piller said, adding he’s lived there for 20 years. “Since I’m retired I do nothing but take pic-tures of wildlife in our area here. I’ve been catching these guys all through the fall last year and I’ve been

shooting bear bangers off to scare off the wild-life, but nobody seems to believe me that these guys are doing this.”

There’s even been people pit-lamping, but because it’s dark he hasn’t been able to get any photographs.

Piller was very upset about the recent kill.

“We’re way out of season here, it’s not even close to hunting season and I can see where they’ve killed it and the tracks from an ATV and they are using our bush continuously.”

He guessed the deer was killed a week or two before he discov-ered it.

“You can see the cut out from where they gutted it and peeled back. It ticks me off that they took the best parts and left the rest here.”

As Piller was talk-ing with the Tribune on Tuesday morning, a dirt

biker came through the trailer park and headed into the woods, driving right past a “private property no trespass-ing” sign.

“We’ve got those guys running through there ripping up the trails,” Piller said. “We’ve got those guys and four-wheelers thinking it’s a race track

around here.”Piller retired a year

and a half ago and started doing four or five walks a day, start-ing before the sun comes up, finishing around 4 p.m.

“The poachers come in at night, coming in from the bottom above Walmart. There’s a paved road that goes to

a home, and there are signs posted no four-wheelers, no motor-cycles, but they still use that road.”

He has caught sight of poachers in the early mornings with lights on facing into the woods, he said.

“I was watching this last year and getting mad, but they hadn’t

killed anything yet un-til one archer killed and lost a deer. He was asking me if I’d seen the dead deer. I told him that wasn’t a good thing because there are people walking in the woods, and we’re going to get bears, cougars and wolves.”

Sgt. Len Butler of the British Columbia Con-

servation Officer Ser-vices Cariboo Chilcotin hasn’t been contacted by Piller and said he en-courages the public to report all poachers to his office.

“People have to make calls to the RAAP line or if they see one of our officers on the street come and talk to them,” Butler said. “Our guys work hard to catch poachers but we have a huge zone and need the public to let us know what’s going on. We want the calls.”

Butler said they’ll set up night shifts and work the areas if neces-sary.

In 2012 the region’s RAAP line received around 1,700 problem wildlife calls. Around 780 were poaching calls.

“Unlawful hunting goes on year round, and catching poachers who are hunting out of season or hunting ille-gally, that’s our job.”

Resident warns of poaching in city limits

Councillor to step down after term

No serious injuries in MVI on Hodgson Road

Williams Lake city councillor Danica Hughes will not be running for office in the 2014 municipal election.

“I want to let all of council know that I do not intend to run again for the election next year,” Hughes said during council’s roundtable discussion at the end of Tues-day’s regular council meeting.

“I am looking for-ward to fulfilling the rest of this term with

my absolute best I can do for the commu-nity.”

She also said she wanted to thank the community for elect-ing her.

“I’m working on the city’s 85th birth-day and that’s prob-ably where my focus is right now,” Hughes said.

Coun. Laurie Wal-ters told Hughes she was surprised by the announcement.

“You’re a great con-tributor and I know you’ll work hard be-tween now and that time,” Walters said.

After 13 hours of fishing for salmon at Siwash Bridge where the Taseko and Chilko Rivers meet, Tsi Del Del Band (Alexis Creek First Nation) Coun. Rocky Guichon ad-dressed the New Pros-perity Mine federal re-view panel Monday.

“You’re in Tsilhqot’in territory now,” Rocky told the panel and repre-sentatives from Taseko. “We feel that we’ve fended off more than an onslaught of big corpo-rations. We would re-ally like to educate you folks on how we expect you to understand what we’re really all about.”

Traditionally the Tsilhqot’in had free range up to Vanderhoof, down to Clinton and out to the coast, Percy said.

“We’ve had great suc-cess defending our land and making sure it’s in-tact.”

A lot of his people, including himself, still hunt, fish, practice their culture and pass it on to younger generations.

“Being out on the riv-er today is what it’s all about, just being there,” he said. “The immense power and magnitude of that river running by is just amazing. The pow-er of water, as you heard

through the hydrology presentations, is prob-ably the most powerful thing on the planet. Peo-ple need to understand when they talk hydrol-ogy they are also talking about soil and air and how it is all connected. If you take out one it af-fects everything.”

When Tsi Del Del resident Mary William spoke in her traditional Tsilhqot’in language, her words were shared by a translator.

“I grew up in Nemi-ah, that’s where I was born, that’s why I love the land,” William said.

Her parents and grandparents taught her everything, includ-ing the fact that it’s not worth destroying beautiful places, she ex-plained.

“We grew up with a lot of teachings. God put us on this place. He put us in this beautiful place. Mining will not be good for this place. It will contaminate this place and we will no longer be able to rely on this place for suste-nance.”

Tsi Del Del Chief Percy Guichon said when the forest indus-try moved into his ter-ritory in the 1980s, the people didn’t benefit very much from the ex-traction.

“Most of the benefits

went to Williams Lake and the wallets of the people living there,” Percy said. “I can see the same thing happen-ing with the develop-ment of a mine in our backyard.”

There’ll be the prom-ise of jobs and big pay cheques and then when the mine closes the peo-ple will be left without jobs and the destruction of the land, resources, and wildlife, he said.

“We’re the ones who will be living here and the ones who will have to deal with the impact. Our community’s been through this and we’re really concerned with

what the social impact will be on our commu-nities, especially the Xeni Gwet’in who have been living quietly in the valley practicing the way of life that they have for years.”

There are so many reasons not to let the mine go ahead, he sug-gested.

“It’s important for future generations to be able to access and ex-perience the same won-ders of that area.”

Percy’s aunt is a leg-end keeper and told him about the spiritual sig-nificance of the area and that it was a safe loca-tion and place of refuge

for Tsilhqot’in people to regroup in times of un-certainty.

“It was secluded, they could survive while they planned. To sug-gest that spiritual sig-nificance is strategy the First Nations came up with to oppose the mine is an insult,” Percy said.

“Ours is an oral tra-dition. Things were passed on to me through legends, stories and songs, but also they were passed on by go-ing out on the land and practicing these activi-ties. It’s not just the ac-tivity, it’s everything that surrounds that ac-tivity.”

Uncles, aunts and grandparents teach and tell stories. “We’re say-ing we’re fish people and we’re saying if that Taseko River is ever contaminated and kills the fish run that’s going to really impede our op-portunity to practice our fishing activities, say at Siwash,” Percy said.

COMMUNITY INVITED TO HAVE ITS SAY ON 2014 BUDGET All residents are encouraged to participate in a roundtable public engagement session on Thursday, Sept. 12 to provide their input on the 2014 budget process.

Each member of Council will be in attendance, sitting at tables and speaking to members of the public. City managers will be on hand to provide support for the discussions. Everyone is invited to come speak to Council members and provide their thoughts the budget process, municipal operations, and the City’s vision.

Information available at the meeting will include the five-year financial plan, a departmental cost breakdown, the five-year capital plan, business plan, long-term debt analysis, and financial forecasting. The same information will also be made available on the City’s website at www.williamslake.ca

“We have made great progress in improving the budget process over the past four years, and now we are taking another huge step forward,’ says Mayor Kerry Cook. “We want residents to fill the Gibraltar Room and sit down with us so we can hear what they want to see next year’s budget look like.

“This is your chance to help choose how Williams Lake moves forward. A municipal budget affects everyone in the community, and we want everyone in the community to participate in this meeting.”

Following the meeting, there will additional public meetings during September and October where Council will discuss public input and deliberate the budget. It is anticipated the provisional 2014 budget will be approved in November. Having a provisional budget in place allows for improved planning of capital projects, and a simplified process as Council deliberates the final budget, which is required to be submitted to the provincial government in May.

The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. in the Gibraltar Room at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex on Thursday, Sept. 12.

Sprinkling regulations are in effect from April 1 to September 30, and watering of lawns is not permitted between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Odd-numbered addresses can water on odd-numbered days, and even-numbered addresses can water on even-numbered days. ). In the case of mobile homes in mobile home parks and strata developments, watering days are determined by bay numbers or unit numbers.

This week, the 55th an-nual 4H Show and Sale is taking place here in

Williams Lake, running from Friday, Aug. 16, to Wednesday, Aug. 21. This is a great local tradition, so I hope you get the chance to attend the Show and Sale down at the Williams Lake

S t o c k -y a r d s starting this Fri-day.

4H is one of

the longest-running youth or-ganizations in Canada, helping young people make their com-munity a better place to live. With the motto “learn by do-ing,” 4H prepares young people to become community leaders by pledging to their Head to clearer thinking, their Heart to greater loyalty, their Hands to larger service, and their Health to better living, for their club, their community and their coun-try.

4H is a fantastic organiza-tion, and ten different 4H clubs will be participating in the Show and Sale, including Big Lake, Canim Valley, Highland, Horse-fly, Chimney Valley, Rose Lake/Miocene, Clinton,  Springhouse, Big Creek, and Chilcotin.

With the 4H Show and Sale starting on Friday, it’s fitting that our Minister of Agriculture, Pat Pimm, is also in the riding this week. Tuesday he met with local ranchers, and yesterday he and I toured the Chilcotin Harvest Abattoir and met with Chilcotin ranchers in Alexis Creek. Af-ter a busy day of meetings and travelling, the Minister met with South Cariboo ranchers in 100 Mile House and today he will be touring Country Prime Meats in Lac La Hache.

Ranching is a big part of our local economy, and I was very happy to host Minister Pimm here in our riding. He knows how important ranching is for our region and our province, and so do the young people in 4H. I hope you’ll show your support.

Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

Don’t forget your camera this summer

Show your support to 4-H

Whether you’re spend-ing your summer vacation relaxing in

your backyard or adventuring into the B.C. wilderness, the BC SPCA

w a n t s to show off your best B.C. wildl i fe pictures.

A m a -teur photographers can enter the fifth annual Wildlife-In-Focus Photography Contest by submit-ting digital photos until Sept. 30.

The contest is a fundraiser sup-porting the society’s Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre (Wild ARC) on southern Vancouver Island, where more than 2,500 orphaned and injured wild animals are cared for every year.

“With the nation’s greatest di-versity of wildlife in our own prov-ince, we are excited to help back-yard and amateur photographers showcase these amazing animals,” says Sara Dubois, manager of wildlife services for the BC SPCA.

Some photos entered in previ-ous contests have been featured in the BC SPCA’s AnimalSense and Bark! magazines, local newspapers and even a book, City Critters: Wildlife in the Urban Jungle, au-thored by local journalist Nicholas Read. Prizes will be awarded for the top three photos in each of two categories: wild settings and back-yard habitats. The contest is open to all adults (age 14 years and up), backyard and amateur photogra-phers, residing in B.C. Learn more and see winners from past contests at spca.bc.ca/wildlife-in-focus.

The annual contest encourages participants to explore greens-paces, roadsides, beaches and even backyards to find striking images that represent the resiliency of lo-cal wildlife living at the interface with humans. Wildlife includes free-living birds, mammals, am-phibians, reptiles, fish and insects, but not exotic, feral or domestic animals, or wildlife in zoos or re-habilitation facilities. For more in-formation about the contest e-mail [email protected].

Lorie Chortyk is the general manager of community relations with the BCSPCA.

Take the high groundActor George Takei has started a petition to have

the Sochi Olympic Games moved from Russia to Canada. U.S. President Barack Obama has cancelled a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

While Obama’s reasons for cancelling the summit are many, one of them is Russia’s crackdown on civil rights…namely new laws that almost make homosex-uality a crime.

Takei, a well-known gay rights activist, has that as a specific reason for wanting the Olympics moved from that country. Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird has denounced Russia’s controversial new anti-gay law as hateful. Kudos to Baird, Takei and Obama for tak-ing a stand. It’s time, however, that the International Olympic Committee took a stand.

Too often the powers-that-be hold their nose and look the other way when dealing with countries rife with human rights abuses. Or, they rationalize that in doing business with such countries, the abusers will see the folly of their ways and change.

That simply doesn’t happen. When it comes to the Olympics, the IOC is the first to tout itself as a world-wide organization touting inclusiveness, etc. In fact, the second principle stated in the Olympic Charter reads:

“The goal of Olympism is to place sport at the ser-vice of the harmonious development of humankind, with a view to promoting a peaceful society concerned with the preservation of human dignity.”

So what does the International Olympic Committee have to say about Russia instituting homophobic laws?

“As a sporting organization, what we can do is to continue to work to ensure that the Games can take place without discrimination against athletes, officials, spectators and the media. To that end, the IOC has received assurances from the highest level of govern-ment in Russia that the legislation will not affect those attending or taking part in the Games.”

In other words, hold your nose and dive right in.– Black Press

Question of the weekA mysterious pianoEditor:

A few years ago I acquired a very beat up piano from the 108 Elementary School. My wife and I had it tuned and had the cabinetry refinished. Although it has a few flaws, it has turned out to be a beautiful piece of furniture and a grand

old instrument, as well. We would like to know something of its history. Where did it come from? How did it come to live at the 108 elementary?

Our piano was built in 1892. It is a stand up grand Krell Piano with Cincinnati — New York inscribed on the front.

Under the lid is inscribed,

“World Columbia exposition in commemoration of the 400th anniversary of the landing of Columbus.”

If you have any idea or leads to this archaic piano’s history please call me at 250-392-3492.

I can’t thank you all enough for the donations, and the customers who helped, and the paper in which it was print-ed. I hope that all the future yard sales will always outdo the first.

Two Williams Lake archers successfully defended their ti-tles Aug. 2-10 at the Canadian 3D Archery Championships in Woodstock, NB.

Fred Streleoff, now a two-time national champion in the men’s instinctive recurve class, and Al Campsall, now a 10-time national champion in the men’s compound division, both fought through incessant down-pour through most of the com-petition to repeat as Canadian champions.

“Fred dominated from start to finish,” Campsall said, add-ing his path to the title had a few more rough patches.

Trailing by 14 points on the final day of the competition, Campsall battled back to win the men’s masters 50 event by eight points.

Both Streleoff and Campsall represented Team B.C. at na-tionals.

Two days later Campsall shot in the field portion of the Cana-dian Outdoor Championships — an event he’s relatively new

to.“A rookie mistake cost me the

silver medal,” he said. “Imagine my group of four shooters ap-proaching a target in the woods with four columns of three small bull’s-eye targets each.

“The first two to shoot are assigned columns A and C, the next pair shoot B and D.”

Campsall said he stepped up to the shooting line and scored perfect bull’s-eyes each for six points on his first two shots,

then scored a five on his last shot, totalling 17 of a possible 18 points, noting he was pleased as he stepped away from the line.

The Kidney Foundation will host its annual Kidney Walk in Williams Lake Sunday, Aug. 25.The walk will start in Boitanio Park at 9 a.m. The Kidney Walk raises funds for critical programs and services for British Columbians affected by kidney disease. The Kidney Walk also helps raise awareness about the seriousness of this disease and highlights the importance of organ donation. Thousands of volunteers and participants in 20 B.C. communities participate in Kidney Walks each year. The events feature live entertainment, prizes, fundraising barbecues, silent auctions and more. Kidney disease is a serious disease that has no cure.  It is a disease that is both under-recognized and undetectable in its early stages.

saturday, sept. 7Tour de Cariboo

On Sunday, Aug. 25, Tracy Short is in-viting everyone in the community to come help make a differ-ence at the first ever Kidney Walk and Run in Boitanio Park.

Short, this year’s regional honouree for the Kidney Walk in Williams Lake, has seen first hand the devastating effects kidney disease can have on a family.

Short’s dad Ken DeWalt, who she is representing on Aug. 25, passed away from kidney disease in 2011 and, through his story, she hopes to help put a face to the disease.

“Many people suf-fer with kidney dis-

ease, like my dad,” Short said. “While there is no cure, my goal is to help engage and generate interest in organ donation.”

Short said her dad suffered with kid-ney disease for seven years.

He was on perito-neal dialysis for those seven years until May of 2011 when he was put onto hemodi-alysis. However, his heart was too weak and, unfortunately, one month later, he died at the young age of 62.

“I didn’t know any-thing about the Kid-ney Foundation (of Canada) until my dad got sick,” she said.

“So last year I de-cided on his birthday to check into the Kid-ney Foundation walk

in Kamloops and did that for the first time.

“I was drawn to walking again this year but I wanted the money raised to stay here in Williams Lake.”

Williams Lake will be joined by 19 other communities across B.C. who are cham-pioning the Kidney Walk. Since 2008, the Kidney Walk has raised more than $860,000 for kidney patients in B.C.

This year’s goal is to raise $340,000 province-wide.

Free registration for the Williams Lake Kidney Walk and Run begins at 9 a.m. in Boitanio Park, with the walk and run starting at 10 a.m. The walk will be a 2.5-kilometre route,

while the run will be five kilometres in length.

There will also be an opening ceremo-nies, speeches, a si-lent auction for the Kidney Foundation, a food vendor and a bouncy castle for the kids.

Short said dona-tions to the Kidney Foundation can ei-ther be made online or at the walk, and information about becoming an organ donor is available online at transplant.bc.ca.

Short will be at Save-On-Foods in Williams Lake this Friday, Aug. 16 from noon until 5 p.m. sharing informational brochures and hand-ing out wristbands for the upcoming walk.

“Then, as the next pair approached the shooting line, the guy supposed to shoot the D column noticed that my three arrows were blocking his bull’s-eyes.

“So, I forfeited my 17 points and the eventual silver med-al.”

Campsall settled for fifth place in field ar-chery, following that event up with two more days of a sepa-

rate event, target ar-chery.

“The target portion saw me finish sixth overall in Canada,” he said, noting his mis-take in the field por-tion of the champion-ships has only made him want to improve more in those events.

“This setback has only strengthened my resolve to master this target archery stuff.

“To that end I have already enrolled in an archery workshop in the fall on Vancouver Island and another in

the Lower Mainland with several of the top archery gurus in Canada.”

In October both Campsall and Strele-off will travel to Sas-sari, Italy to compete as members of Team Canada at the 2013 World 3D Archery Championships.

Campsall is repre-senting Canada in the compound men’s divi-sion.

Streleoff will shoot in the instinctive men’s recurve divi-sion.

Approximately 300 guests gath-ered at the McLeese Lake Com-munity Hall for the Metis Asso-ciation Music Jamboree this past weekend.

From Friday evening through Sunday, people from around the province and from as far away as Manitoba, enjoyed live music, great food, vendors, fellowship and the opportunity to revisit, discover and celebrate their Metis culture and tradition.

Dancing, storytelling, music and sharing an open mic characterized the weekend, as well as shopping at the vendors booths for things like natural health products, jew-elry, décor and handcrafted items.

Entertainers included Wayne and Arnold Lucier, Troubadour Ray Leslie, Le Lala Dancers, Rosetta Paxton, Quesnel Metis Jiggers, Perfect Match, Cariboo Thunder, Country Calibre, River Edge Fiddle and Stuff and Skeena North.

The event was a partnership be-tween the Cariboo Chilcotin Me-tis Association and the BC Metis Federation.

The North Cariboo Youth Jig-gers from Quesnel, led by instruc-tors Kim Berard and Amy Rob-ertson, said they’ve been together for just over a year. They explained jigging is a type of Metis dance

that includes step dancing, pattern and square dancing all combined. The group also included a high-energy broom dance in their per-formance, as well as an audience participation dance.

The group’s colourful costumes were characterized by woven sash-es with great cultural significance, both decorative and practical.

“They were created as a belt, and in the old days were used to keep the Metis people’s coats closed,” explained instructor Amy Robertson.

“They served as a baby cradle around the waist, worn around the forehead and tied to heavy items for transport and even the tassel was used for specific purposes.”

The Metis were nomadic — they followed the buffalo, said Robert-son.

“When traveling, all their small pieces that they didn’t carry in their trunks were tied onto the tas-sels: trunk keys, spoons and forks. Individual strings from the tassels were used for sewing and mend-ing.”

The group explained that Me-tis traditionally wore the red sash when they went into war and the blue in peaceful times; the black sash was commemorative.

BC Metis Federation president Keith Henry said this is the first time the Federation and the local Metis Association have put on an event.

“We all really wanted to put to-gether a whole weekend of culture with camping, so we started orga-nizing about seven months ago,” he said. “Both boards started work-ing together, and our board co-ordinator, musician Rene Therrien has been a real star for us, helping to make this happen. We worked with Arnold and Wayne Lucier and the rest of their board.”

Cindy Lightfoot from Perfect Match said that it was an honour and a pleasure to be invited to perform at the Metis Jamboree at McLeese Lake. The Williams Lake duo played a mix of old time fa-vourites and some of their original tunes for an appreciative audience.

“Everyone was so friendly — it was a great atmosphere and a fun place to play,” she said. “It was so inspiring for us to hear the other groups and musicians, and we were glad to work with Paul Maas from the Guitar Seller. We’d defi-nitely come back for this fun event again.”

There were approximately 70 campers on site, and 300 guests, which is what Keith Henry said the BC Metis hoped for at this first event.

“We’re really happy with the turnout and the weather couldn’t be better,” he added.

“This is all about keeping our culture alive. There have been is-sues and dysfunction in our com-munities and this is about putting

politics away for a weekend and really focusing on people being proud of being Metis.”

He said the weekend was for cel-ebration and awareness.

“A lot of our people don’t un-derstand the Metis culture and are struggling, and there is no better way to make them feel comfortable and want to learn than in a setting like this event.”

To Metis people, this music was the cornerstone of how many of their families lived — the kitchen parties, fiddle music and jigging.

“This is about reconnection to an old-fashioned part of our cul-ture,” he added. “We can be Metis and be contemporary without for-getting who we are and where we came from.”

He said that this event will defi-nitely happen again, adding that the BC Metis Federation col-laborated on five events last sum-mer. He noted that the Cariboo Chilcotin Metis Jamboree marks their 10th partnership so far this summer, adding that they have two more coming up on the Lower Mainland in the next few weeks.

“Our goal is to keep our culture alive and you can see that people want this. People came from long distances to be here this weekend — there are people from at least 20 different communities. Our commitment is to keep growing these events and helping people be proud of who they are.”

Floating past moun-tains, forests and bridg-es, Horsefly’s Marin Patenaude and seven other participants have been adventuring down the Fraser River as part of this year’s Sustain-able Living Leadership Program.

Last Monday, Aug. 12, the group stopped their rafts under Sheep Creek Bridge for a Fisheries and Oceans Canada juvenile fish net demonstration and fisheries discussion before heading into Williams Lake to visit the Potato House and Scout Island.

“I have a lot of fer-vour for environmen-tal stewardship right now,” said Patenaude. “I really found another passion in wanting to protect our backyard.”

The Sustainable Liv-ing Leadership pro-gram seeks to help the participants learn about stewardship, wa-tersheds, salmon and sustainability, during a month long trip canoe-ing, rafting, hiking and bussing 1,375 km from the headwaters of the Fraser River down to its mouth in Vancou-ver.

On Monday, the group was 12 days into the trip and had just switched from pad-

dling down the Fraser to rafts.

“Past halfway, it starts to feel like water going down a funnel,” said Fin Donnelly who swam the Fraser in 1995 and founder of the Rivershed Society that puts on the voyage.

During the trip par-ticipants also work on developing their own unique sustainability projects.

“This is an excellent group. Every year the group is different and that is what makes the program,” Donnelly said.

Patenaude plans to create a compilation CD of artists around the province singing songs about the Fraser and its watershed.

Proceeds from the CD will go to the Po-tato House, she says.

The Potato House it-

self was once a project taken on by a partici-pant of the program, Mary Forbes.

“They are all doing exciting projects,” said Donnelly.

Some of the other projects include imple-menting a food com-posting program at a church, establishing a community garden at a school and a relay swim of the Fraser River set for 2015 commemorat-ing Donnelly’s swim.

The trip so far has been “absolutely in-spiring” for Patenaude.

“Everyone is ex-tremely compassion-ate but individual at the same time,” said Patenaude. “Everyone is extremely diverse too. I appreciate the age range, it makes for an interesting pace change.”

“There’s a lot of

space for vulnerability.”Patenaude has thor-

oughly enjoyed the trip so far, with one of her favourite places be-ing the headwaters of the Fraser River in the Robson Valley.

“The headwaters in general are just beau-tiful and entirely new Fraser country for me,” she said. “It’s cold and clean and fresh.”

Although her jour-ney down the Fraser is not yet over, Patenaude encourages anyone to apply for the trip in the upcoming years.

“I think any person who is able to should do this trip. It’s beau-tiful, it’s inspirational, the leadership and the learning skills you get out of it are so com-plete,” she said.

“We use these skills every day but we don’t get a chance to refine

them, and that’s what I feel we are doing here — refining those skills.

“If you need to refu-el your passion for B.C. in general than you should do this trip.”
