venue to solicit support for their annual civil disobedience said.

Magee did not return mes- sages by press time.

Webb said Magee first men- tioned her belief the WCWC and the Solstice Festival were connected after council’s grants in aid meeting April 17.

At that meeting Magee sec- onded a motion to deny SAC a grant entirely, and opposed a motion for a $1,000 grant in aid which passed.

Webb said that shocked him because the Super 8 Motel, which Magee manages, supported SAC’S trade fair booth for the last two years.

He wrote to Magee April 25, explaining SAC was a non- political organization, and did not question its members on their affiliations or ideologies.

Magee’s reply, which was provided to The Chief, said she could not support a municipal grant to SAC because it supported the Solstice Festival, “which is hosted by the Western Canada Wilderness Coalition (sic) as a

efforts in Tree Farm Licence 38.

The SAC provided the festival with a $500 supporting grant, half of which is a for- givable loan, after the festival became a SAC member. ’ .‘‘Knowing now what I do, I cannot support this association in the future,” she wrote, adding the hotel would with- draw support as the SAC’s Trade Fair sponsor.

“The owners of the hotel have deep roots in forestry and do not wish to support anything that can be associat- ed with WCWC.”

Webb questioned why Magee, when questioned on a council matter, dealt with it as the Super 8 manager, and whether or not that constitutes a conflict of interest.

“There’s no way she should be sitting there [on council] voting against us when the

Webb said Magee must have meant the Solstice Festival organizers when she referred to infiltration of SAC by the WCWC in her letter.

Webb said he wondered i f ’ Magee’s beliefs were even true, and started asking questions. Solstice Festival

The Squamish Arts Council (SAC) wants an apology from Coun. Wendy Magee for com- ments she made linking the Sea to Sky Solstice Festival - which SAC helped support - to the conservationist Western Canada Wilderness Committee (WCWC).

The SAC executive sent a letter May 25 to Mayor Corinne Lonsdale asking for Magee’s apology (see .page A10).

“We request a public apology from Coun. Magee, for her unfounded and erroneous allegations,” the letter reads. “...only a clear and unequivocal apology will rectify this situation.”

Lonsdale said she would not be acting on the letter, since it was unsigned. SAC President Kelsey Webb said Saturday the letter will be re-sent under his signature.

a private helicopter assisted in the search and the Salvation Army deployed its emergency food kitchen at the search site in Murrin Park.

Dwight ran ahead of his family on the trail after they were returning from the lake and soon became lost.

“As soon as I ran ahead I knew I was in trouble,” Dwight told media assembled at Murrin Park after he was found on Monday. “I waited for my dad and then I went in the opposite direction. By the time I knew what had happened I was lost. When it got dark I went to sleeP and in the

of us finding him much earli- er would have been a lot higher,” Dubeck said.

“He (Dwight) obviously has a good head on his shoulders and he didn’t panic, that was a major factor. If you’re ever lost in that type of situation the best thing is to ‘hug a tree’ and stay put.”

Other tips that Dubeck sug- gested were to find some shel- ter be it trees or branches and to always stay together when hiking with a group.

“If Dwight had not run ahead and stayed together, he wouldn’t have gotten lost,” Dubeck said. “Always stay within the group and don’t go off by yourself.’’

Squamish Search and Rescue (SAR) ended up res- cuing three youths and a man who tried to save them on the Mamquam River Sunday afternoon.

Just after 1:30 p.m. Squamish RCMP were notified that three 15-year-old males who had been ‘tubing’ down the Mamquam River were trapped in a log jam and could not reach shore.

When police arrived, they found the victims stranded in the middle of a tributary of the river situated near the south

appeared to be safe after climbing up the tree, but the third males was clinging to an overhead branch and was standing or supported by his knees and feet on another part of the tree.”

The victim was partially submerged with his lower legs and feet in the swift moving water. Several other fallen trees approximately 50 feet below their location known as ‘strainers’ created a very haz- ardous, dangerous situation.

SAR was notified and members trained in swift water rescue prepared to move into act ion.

“Prior to police and S A R arriving, a citizen with good intentions and some climbing gear waded across to the stranded males, but in doing so almost got swept away and drowned,” Orthner said. “This man managed to make

it to the three, but was also stranded with the three boys.”

SAR assessed the scene and after three failed attempts to swim to the victims, one of the members managed to get to the tree and climb over i t to the victims.

A rope rescue from members on shore successfully removed all four persons from the river, with mild hypother- mia the only injury.

Orthner said people should use extreme caution when the rivers are high from spring runoff, and noted persons with good intentions that they should carefully assess situa- tions and not put themselves at risk in attempting to perform dangerous rescues.

“These should be handled by trained professionals as in this case it resulted in more persons having to be rescued,” he said.

News Local strikes Dragon Boat gold in Vancouver

13Y IAN JACQUES R e po rt e r

S cl u a in i s h ’ s La i i Week s pxidled for a great cause last weekend i n Vancouver.

Weeks, a breast cancer sur- vivor, was one of thousands of women who took to the waters around the Plaza of Nations in the third annual Breast Cancer Race - part of the 2000 Dragon Boat Fe s t i va 1 .

For Weeks, i t was her first time competing in the cvent and i t was something she will nevcr forget.

“I t was a lot more challeng- ing than I thought i t would be,” Weeks said who was part of’ the 22-paddler team w w w. Ca tc h Us .corn that won the gold medal.

“For me winning was icing 011 the cake. Seeing the par- ticipation and all those women on the water who have overcome so much and realizing that there is life after something like this is the real story.”

Weeks was detected with breast cancer i n 1996 and

recently beat the disease through medical treatments.

She found out about the Dragon Boat competition through Whistler’s Linda Seifred, who competed last year and was in the boat that finished in second at this year’s race.

“I give a lot of the credit for our win to our coach Ian Gardner,” Weeks said. “He gave 11s a real inspirational speech right before the race that we just weren’t here to compete we were here to raise cancer awareness. It was really emotional and I think it gave us that extra push for us to win.”

The Breast Cancer Race was one of the major highlights to this year’s festivities that ran last Friday through Sunday.

Now in its fifth year the Dragon Boat Festival brings together some of the best teams from around the world.

For the Breast Cancer Race there were 1 1 boats - the largest turnout that they have had i n it’s short history.

Competitors came from

Lail Weeks

Ontario, Quebec, Portland, Oregon, throughout the province and one team came all the way from New Zealand to compete.

Weeks said she will be a part of the event next year and hopes that others in the corridor with follow her lead.

“It was a fantastic experience to be a part of something that meant so much to so many people,” Weeks said. “It’s really quite overwhelm- ing.”

News : J

. f J! Hudson’s fate uncertain yt 1 1

:T BY DARREN GALLACHER 4 Reporter

: The Royal Hudson, No. 2860, is out for at least a year

. for major repairs, but now ’ there are questions of whether

i t will return at all. “We’re in the process of

evaluating what’s going to be , ’ done with it,” BCR Group

director of communications Alan Dever said Wednesday.

“No decisions have been made. We basically need to rebuild the boiler and firebox. It’s never been done in the 60 years of lifetime of the train.”

Dever said BC Rail is in dis- cussions with the province’s Ministry of Energy and Mines.

While the Royal Hudson is out, the excursions are being run by the Port Coquitlam, Engine No. 371 6.

“For the average passenger there isn’t much difference. You’ve got an engine in front that spouts steam and pulls the Hudson cars behind it,” Dever said.

He noted the ‘3716, which was originally a freight engine, was built in 1912, making it almost half again as old as the Royal Hudson.

“You want to talk about a vintage engine; it’s one of the oldest engines on the conti- nent,” Dever said, but pointed out the Port Coquitlam had been completely restored, unlike the Hudson.

“This replacenient engine doesn’t have the same charis- ma and history,” Mayor Corinne Lonsdale said June 20 during a meeting with BCR Properties.

Coun. Wendy Magee made a passionate case for keeping the Royal Hudson on the rails, citing its world-wide recogni- tion and heritage value.

“When you say Royal Hudson, nobody says North Vancouver. They say Squamish,” said Magee.

She described i t as the crown jewel of the community’s tourism.

“It would be a catastrophe, an absolute catastrophe,” she

said of losing the Hudson. “I know how fondly that

Movie Beaver comes back to town BY DARREN GALLAGHER

Reporter

Visitors to Municipal Hall will notice a new addition to the foyer.

I Eager the Beaver, a six- foot-plus-tall prop from the movie Say It Isn’t So which was shot in Squamish this spring, is temporarily residing at Municipal Hall after the movie crew donated the chainsaw-carved beaver.

He arrived at Municipal Hall Thursday night, and was set up near the entrance

to the special projects office. While Municipal Hall was

masquerading as the police headquarters for Beaver, Ore. this spring, Eager was situated across the street in Stan Clarke Park.

When the crew was wrap- ping up filming i n Squamish they asked what they could do for the district, aside from a $4,000 grant f a - improvements to Second Avenue, Mayor Corinne L,onsdale said.

She asked for Eager. “It’s a great idea to accu-

mulate things from various movies that are filmed here, create our own movie hall of fame for people to irisit,” she said.

The final home for the Gle ti Greens ides sc u1 pt ure remains to be seen.

“We need to get a hold of the carver and ask h i m what needs to be done so Eager the Beaver retains his good looks,” she said.

The spotted owl population is declining rapidly, with estimates of well below 100 in B.C. and only 25 nesting pairs.

“It has obviously an impact on the whole debate on logging in the Elaho and near the Doug!as fir loop trail,” Geza Vamos said.

Vamos, president of EcoMountain Tours and founder of the ETA, said he was with EcoWalk director John Kelson in the Elaho when Kelson photographed of the owl. “I hope ... Interfor will realize the significance of this and not log that block,

year; Interfor is currently only cutting in 102-5 1.

“If there is a nest ... we’ll do everything to protect it,” said Interfor project forester Gord Prescott. However, he said he believes the claim to be a lie to cloud the issue and delay logging in the Elaho.

EcoMountain Tours hired three biologists, including one who has worked for MELP, to enter the Elaho and attempt to confirm the owl sighting.

“Hopefully he finds it this weekend if it’s there, but if he doesn’t it doesn’t mean it’s not there,” said Clark, adding it would take at least 25 hours of night watching to prove the owl isn’t inhabiting the area.

“If they find an owl, we’ll want to talk to Ministry of Forests,” said Clark.

Eco-tourism operators are searching the Upper Elaho Valley for a small brown bird that could halt International Forest Products’ (Interfor) logging in the old-growth forest.

Members of the Elaho Tourism Alliance (ETA) claim have found a member of the endangered northern spotted owl species (strix occidentalis) in a cut block in the Elaho.

Just before 11 p.m. on June 17, an officer on patrol saw an intoxicated person walking along Hwy. 99 with open alcoholic beverages.

The police officer stopped the man and as he was dealing with him, several people from a nearby party came out to assist the person.

“As the amount of people grew so did the number of police officers,” Zettler said. “After all was said and done, three were arrested and spent the evening in custody.”

The accident occurred just

Zettler said the driver of the vehicle lost control and hit the rock face on the right side of the highway.

Two people in the vehicle received minor injuries and were treated at Squamish General Hospital and later released. The driver has been charged with refusing to provide a breath sample.

RCMP received a report of several vehicle break-ins in the day parking lots around Squamish on June 21.

Several items were stolen including various credit cards.

Box 3500 Squamish, B.C.

“Wedge to the Ledge” campaign was well-named. It jl refers not only to the wedges of old-growth trees they wheeled through Squamish last week on their way to

i Victoria, but to the wedge they hoped to drive into this community between those who live off the working forest here and those who do not and are concerned by the nega-

! tive view of Squamish in the media earned by the ongoing protests and court challenges.

But instead of driving a wedge, the hardy near-dozen protesters, several of whom were high school students, found themselves faced with a united front on the steps of Squamish’s Municipal Hall - a crowd of over 100 loggers, sawmillers, business owners, civic and provincial officials and citizens and their families - and a few wheelbarrows of their own, full of dollars showing the impact forest dollars have on this community in health care, education and social programs.

Was it a media stunt, contrived and designed to put a spin on the WCWC’S own carefully orchestrated campaign? Absolutely. Did it work? We think so - not so much because of what happened as what didn’t happen. There were no confrontations, no refusals of service, no angry words. Just a strong show of support, an organized shot at the assembled media spotlight and a walk away when Joe Foy went fgr the mike.

The WCWC still got their media time - that’s going to continue to happen - but with no crowd to play to or to anger, it was largely a message without teeth. Leaving Squamish without an incident to get enraged over takes some wind out of the WCWC’s sails as they make their way to Victoria - without having taken up Mayor Corinne Lonsdale’s offer to drive them there. What a car ride that would have been.. .

But the strategy devised by the newly-formed working group is proof that Interfor and its allies are learning - learning not to acknowledge their opponents’ publicity unless it can be made into positive press for them.

They have done their cause proud. They showed smarts and class -just as people did last year when then-Forests Minister David Zirnhelt faced a room of 500 sawmill workers, fallers and their families who had been waiting for nine months for Squamish’s sawmill to reopen.

And when it did finally reopen - a year ago next month - Zirnhelt noted that it was that public show of support that encouraged him to make the decision.

If this working group can keep coming up with strategies like this, it would be hard not to anticipate similar results from Victoria.

Councillor Magee has written a letter to us explaining that her refusal to support our grant-in-aid application was based on her belief that the Sea to Sky Solstice Festival group (and by association, the Squamish A r t s Council) is involved in a financial arrange-

ial , as well as WCWC head office. Through our investigations it is quite evident that Squamish A r t s Council and the Sea to Sky Solstice Festival group have no connection to WCWC as Coun. Magee alleges.

Further to this, SAC policy is to be a non-political organization and membership is open to any

manner - we request a put apology from Coun. Magee, her unfounded and erronec allegations. We are concen with the negative repercussion: her statement, and only a cl and unequivocal apology frc her will rectify this situation.

even before the first- time event could event get off the ground.

The tiff between Coun. Wendy Magee and the,Squamish Arts Council over the SAC’S sponsorship of the Solstice Festival was month-old dirty laundry which suddenly found itself aired in the Vancouver media last week as the festival began.

If the festival had WCWC overtones, it wasn’t very obvi- ous to this writer, who spent most of Friday and Saturday at the festival as spectator and performer. But as one wag pointed out this weekend at the festival, could it be the play “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” with its notions of fairies in the woods is a metaphor for protesters?

Obviously not. As those who were there know, the festival was a celebration not of politics, but of art - dance, music, drama, and food.

But like i t or not, the issue is now a public one. Let’s keep it in the proper perspective, though.

The arts in this community can bring us together. ]Let’s not let them tear us apart.

The loggers were provoked and I don’t think what was done was right, but I also don’t believe in strikes, broken friendships or lost causes. I also don’t believe that environmentalists should be unwelcome in our community.

They are people just looking fori way to help out.

11 ;it11 pleased to have been invited to once again participate in the Rotary Cares charity Celebrity Challenge Race. i - 1 ani sure this is not because [ ani any sort of a celebrity, but more likely because I was fol-tunate to find enough sponsors last year to raise about $800. This year, so far, [ have exceeded that much with a week yet to go.

In an effort io at least double my last year's pledges I am preparcd to raise the bar for myself. I have reclaimed my old unicycle, which I haven't ridden in over 20 years, from - my brother's basement, with the crazy idea in mind that I should attempt the race on it.

A few practice rides have not instilled any confidence in me that I can actually do it. At 6.5 kilometres the course is three times longer than any distance I have gone before. And hills? Never tried it, don't know if i t is physically possible!

jnterest And if the wounds on my shins and butt get any worse,

OT[ may be incapacitated before O'Ieven get to the start line.

Y rts, Any

However, if people are pre- nd -OrJared to put their money n some.

where their hearts are for this excellent local charity, I am prepared to givc this my best effort.

Phone me anytime at 892- 7695 with your pledge, or if you see me one whceling around town wave me down. Heaven knows, I can use the practice getting off and on the darn thing !

Only in Canada.. . E;ilitor-, Only i n C;tnada can you

come into another town, get money from the local welfiir-c office, go to the l0c;tl !<md bank for free grocerics, head up to the bush to protest the cutting of trees, putting the hard working people who paid the taxes and donated the food out of work!

Then to add insult to injury if these illegal protesters happen to get arrested, these same taxpayers will pay for the free legal aid the protesters recieve.

Only in Canada do the police watch and do nothing as protesters break the law by harassing and impeding fallers as they try to work.

On June 5 i t took 36 RCMP to arrest one 16-year-old boy, who with a dozen other protesters blockaded our road for 14 hours.

Why only one arrest? Because only in Canada do you get a second chance to step aside, leave only one to

be arrested and you can conic back and do i t again. Whal does i t cost for 36 RCMP for 14 hours'?

Piping their way to Scotland BY DARREN GALLAGHER

Reporter

W ’hen the nightly news broad- casts the image of 10,000 bag- pipers marching down the

streets of Edinburgh Aug. 5, Squamish residents should be watching.

Locals Luc Leblanc and John Hughes are going to Scotland this summer to participate in the BT Scotland Millennium Pipes.

The march, along with competitions and public performances, is a fund-rais- er for Marie Curie Cancer Nurses, 5,000 of which work throughout the British Isles with cancer patients in- home or in one of the chanty’s 10 hos- pices. Altogether they hope to raise &500,000 (about $1.5 million), but that’s not Leblanc and Hughes’ only reason for going.

in something that will probably never happen again at this volume,” said Hughes. “If you’re a piper and you get a chance to play in Scotland - it’s something to consider.”

Both men are members of the Diamond Head Legion Pipe Band; Leblanc is the piping instructor.

“It would be an opportunity to partake

“We want to be able to go there and say we’re from Squamish,” said Leblanc. “And of course, people are going to say ‘Where the hell is that‘?”’

“Is it a holiday?Yeah, in a way it is but we’re going to be playing a hell of a lot of bagpipes while we’re at it,” he added. “It’s a working holiday, almost.”

The competitions, however, will serve for many bands as a warm-up for the world championship the next week. Leblanc said he intends to be there, cheering on defending champions Simon Fraser University.

They are paying for the trip themselves. Happily, they can save the cost of lodgings - and the trouble of finding space during such a large event - by staying with Hughes’ family.

The Legion is also helping out with 50/50 draws, but Leblanc estimates such efforts have raised 3-4 per cent so far. “If somebody wants to hire a couple pipers for a wedding or another occa- sion, we’d accept any donations to help pay for our trip,” he said.

They are also accepting pledges for the Marie Curie nurses. A pledge sheet is up in the Legion, or people can contact Leblanc at 898-4260 or Hughes at

pleasure. After these

appetizing events are devoured and our blurriness, numbness, and con- sciousness drops to a tolerable level, the main course will be served "The Test of Metal." Being once a healthy competitor racing for a position, to an unfit, recreational rider combating psycho delusions, along with pain and suffering from a lack of training, to an ice-cream-licking, hand- clapping, sprinkler-soaki ng, mountain bike groupie, to an inexpendable, unsung, unpaid volunteer, I have experienced it all!

The 67-kilometre race course is a combination of blacktop, logging road and single track. The race starts at the Brennan Park Recreation Centre and will end in the campground beside the centre. The beginning of the race takes the riders straight to the very top of Thunderbird Ridge, then down through Jack's Trail, heading north to Alice Lake, up to the Bob Macintosh

Trail, then

to Elvis' favorite, the hike-a- bike up Rock and Roll.

Point totals contribute towards the Tour Championship event scheduled for the Furry Creek

Dave Hodgson and the staff at the Chateau Whistler for making our first event of the season such a quality experience," said tour organizer Chris MacDonald. "We're off to a great start and we're looking forward to the season."

The next Sea to Sky Junior tour event is at Nicklaus North Golf Course on July 5 .

Call MacDonald at 938- 9898 for more information and if you'd like to take part.

In memory of Ed Lewis May 23, 1934 - July 1, 1999.

In tears I saw you sinking, I watched you fade away; you suf- fered much in silence, you fought so hard to stay; you faced your task with courage, your spirit did not bend; and still you kept on fighting, until the very end. God saw you getting tired, when a cure was not to be; so he put his arms around you and whispered, "Come to me." So when I saw you sleeping, so peace- fully from al l pain; I could not wish you back again, to suffer that again.

BY GEORGIA NICHOLS Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22) There is one card in a tarot reading that indicates "hopes or fears". To me this is the most important card because our expectations so strongly colour what actually transpires in our lives. This year, all Leos will be confident about their future. You will be fearless and bold. You will expect and demand more for yourself. You will dare to dream big - and act on these dreams. The reality that life is fleeting and if you want to do something you might as well get down to it and bloody go for it - will ring within you. It's not that you sneer a t caution. Bravery knows fear but still acts. You will work with groups and friends and organizations and make a difference. Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22) You've hit the big time. Lucky Jupiter is cresting the top of your chart, sprinkling fairy dust on your scene. Make a wish. Clap your hands. You constantly doubt yourself, or fear that your frailties will be discovered. That's because you're hung up on this perfection thang. It's very over-rated. You can relax. This year hugely blesses al l your career aspirations. You'll be recognized, acknowl- edged, lauded, promoted, praised and get first pick at dessert. Travel, publishing and matters to do with healing, med- icine and the law figure. Hands in the air as you go over the top - wheeee! Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22) You're entering a fabulous year for increased travel, publishing, higher education, and work in PR, the media and foreign relations. (If you have writing aspirations, act now. The gods are with you.) You will want to learn something useful and meaningful this year because your belief-system - whatever it is - matters more now. Many will be attracted to human potential movements or collective action to improve the world in some way. Go forward with this impulse. It was Adlai Stevenson who said "Eggheads unite! You have nothing to lose but your yokes." Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 2l) This is an extremely fortunate year for you. You will benefit from the resources of others. People give you gifts and goodies. Partners earn more, buy more and have more to offer you. You have the advantage of using what others own. It's pay-off time. In your private life, your sex life can also get a major boost. Many of you will finally have something to nudge in the night. It's a great year to enter partnerships and pool resources with another. You benefit from joining forces now - not standing alone. You can get a loan, raise capital or do fund raising. (Sounds good to me.) Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. Z l ) A wonderful year for relationships and partnerships. You more easily show your true self. Your trust in others increases and your confidence to be yourself

ra Aries (March 21 - April 19) This year favours travel, short trips, writing, teaching, driving and all communications. Your thinking and thought pat- terns about your everyday world will be greatly expanded. You will be more positive and expect more from life. You will read more, talk more and write more. You will be happier because you are thinking in a more positive way, and positive thinking always attracts and cre- ates a more positive world. Relations with siblings arid relatives will take on a greater importance. You might become such a Pollyanna that people will point at you and giggle - but I doubt it. Not if you wear clothes. Taurus (April 20 - May 20) Well, hope you can stand this. Money bags Jupiter will sit in your House of earnings and wealth for a year. Ha! You will buy more and earn more. The move- ment of cash through your life will definitely be increased. The truth of the matter however, is that whatever it is that you most value in life will be expanded and take on a greater importance for you. Initially, you may get indulgefit with yourself, (oh, do) however, since Jupiter is connected with wisdom this will evolve into something else. You can only eat in a candy shop so long, right? Eventually you have to come out for a hot dog. You'll appreciate what you own and see what it is that you most value. More fudge anyone? Gemini (May 2l- June 20) Ah, Gemini, a t last - the mantel of the gods is placed on your shoulders. This marks the beginning of a 12 year cycle of growth for you. It's time to truly discover who you are. Your confidence and self- image will improve this year. You might even take up tap-dancing. The prover- bial rabbit's foot is on your key-chain which is why people, opportunities and resources will be attracted to you. Your increased poise enhances all your relationships. You'll look and play the part of the winner. Your health will improve; ycur optimism will rise. But people will expect funny jokes - so you'd better memorize some. Cancer (June ?l - July 22) You are entering a spiritual and person- ally rewarding year. You will make friends with yourself. (Think how handy it will be to borrow clothes - and they'll lit.) If you work for the government or a large institution, your position in the grand scheme of things will improve. Jupiter is the ruler of philosophy and digion and these qualities will emerge 'or you more strongly than they have iefore. You will be more giving and char- table to those around you and possibly o those whom you will never meet - but jre suffering far away. You have a deep- ?r understanding that we're all in this )ig soup together, and what affects one, iff ects all. Trippy but true.

grows. People who benefit you anc teach you will appear. Your public per. sona will project more success tc clients, customers, your public and you1 close friends. You may marry someone slightly older or more established in the world. One of the reasons for your increased success in dealing with others is you more easily see things from their perspective. It takes a supple quality of mind to be able to make this shift, and not many can do it. But this year - you can. Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19) The next 12 months will be a wonderful boost for your health. Jupiter brings increased well being to you, except it can force you to eat too many cookies and desserts with lots of ice cream and whipped cream. (It's a terrible things to see - and you're completely innocent.) Well chubs, just be aware that your sweet tooth is activated. Another area that is beautifully favoured, is your employment scene. New job opportunities will come along. Some will change jobs, others will simply change positions where you now work. New equipment may be given to you plus increased travel. If you are not happy where you are working, the next 12 months is the time to look elsewhere. You will like what you find. (Avoid bakeries,) Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18) According to astrology texts, the next 12 months can be one of the most fun times of your life. Certainly all aspects of your creative expression will increase through an inner confidence and a drive to express yourself and an opportunity to do so. Get thee to a hobby shop, or a r t supplies store or music rental place, so that you can have fun drawing, painting, singing, carving, building, writing - whatever. If you do it - you are the doer. It is not important whether or not someone buys it. You are a verb, not a noun. Vacations, recreational activities, love, romance and fun with children are also a major focus. New love can enter your life. Entertainment, show biz and the hospitalrh/ scene flourish. Gosh. You get all the fun.. .. Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20) The next 12 months are the best window for real estate that you may encounter for a long time. Whatever you do to improve your property, or buy new property or enhance where you now live will be a boon and a profit to you in the future. This includes investrrient property - you do not have to live there. Similarly, relations at home or with family members will improve and be more joyful. It will be easier to be generous to family and loved ones, and you too, will be on the receiving end of this returned generosity. It's al l hey nonny nonny on the home front. Joy to the world and all that. Invite the gang over.

A big thank you to the past board of directors who did a great job.

It was a great picnic at Alice Lake last week when seniors joined the walking club for a wind-up celebrations. I believe there were 40 or more. Lots of hot dogs, chili and desserts, plus fresh fruit.

Good walking, Margaret. Although this was a wind-

up picnic for the walking club they will still be going out every week, so watch this column for details. This Thursday June 29 meet at 10 a.m. at the Fishermen’s Entrance (at the access to the dike from Government Rd, north of the red barn, south of the Railway Museum) for a walk along the trail beside the Swan SlougNWoodpecker Trail (flat). Phone Lesley at 898- 1628. A happy 43rd anniversary

to Wim and Els Vandereerden . I didn’t get back from the

picnic at Alice Lake last week in time for the ribbon cutting at the Coast Garibaldi Health Unit but I did get there. It looked like it was well attended and found the new facilities to be a great working area.

their donation of plants. Happy Anniversary to
