Groundwork on the util-ities portion of the arena replacement project is slated for fall of 2015.
“That means as soon as the frost is gone in 2016 we’re ready to begin building the actual arena,” mayor Bob Simpson said.
The latest arena up-date was discussed dur-ing Tuesday’s Joint Plan-ning Committee meeting between city council and Cariboo Regional District (CRD) directors.
Further to the utilities portion (moving of wa-ter, gas etc lines) a request for qualifications will be released this month.
The project status report released to JPC members stated:
“Based on current sched-ule, MKT recommends proceeding to a stipu-lated price contract. The contract should allow for a negotiated fixed price agreement, with cash al-lowances identified for demolition and possibly landscaping. The owner can then reserve the right to perform these elements of the work separately or assign the separately ten-dered work to the con-tractor. This methodology will allow the owner to maintain a single point
of responsibility and li-ability, while having the potential to segregate ele-ments of the contract. We expect that the value of these allowances will be approximately $500,000 to $700,000.”
With savings of approxi-mately $4 million from the original quote of an ap-proximate $22.5 million Simpson pointed to the in-tegrity of the project.
“It’s still a project to be proud of,” he said.
“It’s affordable while still meeting the spirit and intent of the referendum.”
MKT also identified savings potential, two of which were approved:
• Simplify housing for ice plant (savings of $100,000);
• Tender ice plant and rink slab – as package (savings of $150,000).
Two other items were proposed but JPC has not confirmed they will move forward with these two suggestions:
• Reduce bucket seats by 100 to bench seats (sav-ings of $12,000);
• Leave existing rink slab in place for parking (sav-ings of $50,000).
“JPC found a way to work together to stick handle a difficult project with cost estimates that exceeded the referendum,” Simpson said.

Trent Derrick has declared his intentions to seek the Cariboo Prince George NDP nomination.
Derrick is seeking the nomination for the NDP for the riding of Cariboo-Prince George in the upcoming federal election scheduled for October 19.
There is no confirmed date for the nomination at this time.
Derrick currently lives in Prince George having lived in the riding for 32 years – 10 years in Hixon and 22 years in Prince George. Derrick has experience working for Service Canada and the Ministry of Social Development and Social Innovation, respectively.
Currently, he is a small businessman owning Spa of the North (in the Coast Inn of the North in Prince George) and he is currently in the process of opening Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory in Prince George building upon over 10 years working in the family business.
He is married to his wonderful wife, Rachel. He is proud of being First Nations (Gitxsan) as his father is a Hereditary Chief (Wie Claa Mie).
He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Religion and Theology from Taylor
University College. He is seeking the nomination for the NDP because he believes that his progressive values, wide range of experience, and ability to listen and understand the electorate concerns will be an asset to Parliament and our region.
He believes in the NDP and that they offer the best option for families, the middle class and small business. He
knows that he will be able to represent the Party and the region well.
He ran for councilor in the previous municipal election in Prince George which allowed him to understand the people of our region, make many connections throughout the community and to have been able to build strong, lasting relationships.

Both of these applications have had a previous public hearing with their accompanying rezoning bylaws but were not adopted prior to the adoption of the new QFOCP. Therefore the old bylaws were rescinded and the bylaws above were created to reflect the new QFOCP.
Public hearings are for all persons who believe their interest in property is affected by the proposed bylaws. The public hearings are to be held by a delegate of the Cariboo Regional District Board. A copy of the CRD resolution is available for public inspection.
Written submissions regarding the proposed bylaw will also be received. These submissions may be submitted at the public hearing or should be received in the Cariboo Regional District office at 180 D North 3rd Avenue, Williams Lake, BC, V2G 2A4, (fax number 392-2812) forty-eight hours prior to the hearing. No further information or representations can be considered by the CRD Board after the public hearing. All verbal and written submissions will become the public record.
The bylaw and an information package may be inspected on our website or at the Cariboo Regional District office, #102-410 Kinchant Street, Quesnel, BC, V2J 7J5, between 8:00 am to 12:00 noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, from June 10, 2015 to June 17, 2015 inclusive (excepting public holidays). This information may also be inspected at the Cariboo Regional District office at 180 D North 3rd Avenue, Williams Lake, BC, between 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, from June 10, 2015 to June 17, 2015 inclusive (excepting public holidays). Telephone inquiries should be directed to the Planning Department of the CRD at 1-800-665-1636.

Safety first
It’s that time of year again, when you make sure the air condition-ing is working in your car and
maybe even consider installing an au-tomatic car starter – if you don’t al-ready have one – to cool down the in-terior before you get in, because you just know, “it’s going to be an oven in there.”With the heat comes the annual
warnings about leaving pets in your car. Not heeding these warnings can lead to tragic consequences, yet we continue to see parked vehicles with furry friends cooped up inside – usu-ally a dog.Sure, most people leave their win-
dows down a crack to allow for air circulation, but studies have shown that doing so doesn’t help much to prevent dangerously high tempera-tures in an enclosed space.Dogs play an important role in
people’s lives. “Man’s best friend” is a commonly-accepted moniker for a reason, after all.Many take their dog everywhere, as
they would young children or other people who can’t be left unaccompa-nied at home. Some see their dog as a member of the family too important to leave alone at home. But for what-ever reason, some people still feel it’s acceptable to put that “friend” in a dangerous situation that could leave them with heat stroke in a matter of minutes, or worse, kill them.If you can’t bear being without your
dog while you run your errands, why would you treat it so badly when you bring the animal along, by leaving it in your vehicle?There are many stores who welcome
dog owners and their pets – based on the signage in their windows, at least. Why not frequent those vendors rath-er than risk the life of your friend? Call around before you head out and see who offers the products or servic-es you’re in the market for, asking ev-eryone if you can bring Scrappy with you when you shop.Maybe if retailers receive more of
these types of calls, more of them will start allowing pets, and we’ll begin to see fewer of our friends in enclosed, dangerous, oven-type spaces.If you’re unwilling to leash your dog
and have it accompany you while you do your business, leave it at home with plenty of water available.

Kim Findlater is what some refer to as a helicopter parent, constantly hover-ing nearby, watching that her child is safe and out of harm’s way. But this style of parenting wasn’t one she chose – rather it was thrust upon her when her seven-year-old daughter Arielle was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes, also called type 1 diabetes, in late September 2013. It was a disease she and her husband never saw coming.
“I always thought it was genetic,” Kim said.
“Or something brought on by a poor diet, it wasn’t anything we ever worried about.” But looking back, she can now recognize there were signs.
Arielle would come home from school, drink copi-ous amounts of water and frequent the bathroom. Kim figured it was because she wasn’t allowed to leave dur-ing class and was therefore not drinking enough during the day.
She had also become very skinny. Her appetite was large, so her thinness didn’t worry her parents. They thought she was just going through a growth spurt.
And she was tired. A three hour nap in the middle of the day that resulted in her
waking up looking fatigued and not her vibrant self had her parents taking her to the doctor. Blood samples were ordered and with a blood glucose level at 16 she was immediately admitted to the hospital where she would stay for the next seven days.
Her body had been feed-ing off itself and she had to endure countless needles to get her glucose levels balanced. Dehydrated and constipated, she also had to drink a disgusting potas-sium drink or she’d end up in the intensive care unit at the hospital.
Her diagnosis of type 1 diabetes came as a shock, and her life, and the lives of her family, would forever be changed.
Already busy with Arielle, and another daughter Isla, who was 18 months old, Kim was about to restart her own small business as a nail technician after ma-ternity leave. But she had
no idea how much would change until she lived the reality of the new diagno-sis. A crash course on the disease she knew little about would start it off.
Type 1 diabetes can hap-pen to anyone, it’s not pre-ventable and you can’t pre-test. It’s a chronic condition that usually appears during childhood or adolescence in which the pancreas doesn’t produce insulin, a hormone that enables us to get energy from food.
Fortunately, through medi-cal research, great strides have been made and it’s no longer a death sentence. Insulin can be administered to the patient in an attempt to keep them at the normal levels our bodies are sup-posed to regulate naturally. That was easier said than done. Kim would have to monitor everything Arielle consumed as well as any physical activity she partici-pated in, and then calculate how much insulin she’d need to bring her sugar levels to a livable state.
Kim can’t drop Arielle off at Brownies, a birthday party or a sleepover like most parents. She now has to remain close by in case something happens. And being available at a mo-ment’s notice has obviously
affected her work, making it impossible to run her business. “I have lots of idle time so she can have as close to a normal and fulfill-ing life as possible.”
Being the primary care-giver to their daughter’s daily needs, Kim’s husband has taken on the role of his wife’s supporter as well as the one to handle the administrative side of things. “If we need to buy a pump, David’s the one who will find out which one we should get.”
Fundraising has resulted in some tremendous improve-ments for the people living with type 1 diabetes and their families – the pump being one of them.
While a bit of a grey cloud hangs over their heads when it comes to their beauti-ful little girl’s future, the Findlaters are optimistic knowing any improvements resulting from this research will directly impact her life and the lives of over 300,000 Canadians living with type 1 diabetes. De-livering a practical cure by 2025 is the goal, but with enough help, it could be even sooner than that.

When it comes to boating, the law requires
that every vessel must have a lifejacket or Personal Flotation Device (PFD) for each person onboard, stipulates in some instances when they must be worn and even sets age restrictions for certain types.
Data obtained by the Lifesaving Society over the past several years show that a very high percentage of boating-related drowning victims were not wearing a
flotation device – and that statistic is a very troubling one.
Think about it.What is the sense in
having a lifejacket or PFD if you don’t wear it?
And simply having one “within reach” isn’t going to do much good when you suddenly, for whatever reason, find yourself tossed into the water.
Trying to put on a flotation device as you’re about to capsize is like trying to buckle a seat belt right before your
car crashes pretty much impossible.
Being a strong swimmer is no guarantee either. Your chances of survival will be impacted by things such as wave action, weeds, clothing, anxiety (a biggy), and especially cold water.
These, either singularly or in concert, will work against you. According to available statistics, 94 per cent of drownings in Canada occur in water that is less than 20 degrees Celsius.
But it is not hypothermia
that claims most lives. The killer, and it occurs within the first minutes of entering the water, is cold shock. Cold shock causes an instant gasp reflex than can flood the lungs with water, leading to continued gasping (more water inhaled), uncontrollable hyperventilation and panic.
And if you think you can skip the safety gear because you’re only going out on a “little” lake or “small” river, think about this: two-thirds of those
who drown are within 15 metres of safety about the length of a semi-trailer.
While some countries, the U.S. for example, lump lifejackets and PFDs under the singular “Personal Flotation Device” banner, Canada classifies them separately with different requirements and purposes. Understanding those differences will aid you in making the right choices for your particular water activities.
To assist in that regard, we’ll begin a look at the
various types of ‘life-saving apparel’ in our next report.
The Quesnel Power and Sail Squadron is proud to promote Boating and Water Safety. Please support our efforts by encouraging your friends and family to always be water-safe. If you would like more information about the Quesnel Power & Sail Squadron, talk to any member, or email your comments or questions to: [email protected] with QPSS in the Subject Line.

ARTS AND CULTURE
As a testament to her resilience and tenacity, Gerry Brace-well, at 93 years of age, just released her book Gerry, Get Your Gun on May 28 in Williams Lake.
Gerry, Get Your Gun packs the wallop of a 30-30 rifle. Leg-endary hunting guide, Bracewell recounts tales of extraordi-nary toughness and perseverance in the rugged Chilcotin.
Born in 1922, in Northern Alberta, Bracewell spent much of her early life on the family farm. Howev-er, her dream was to live in the mountains of B.C. and when she left home at 16 she had little understand-ing of the adventures that awaited her.
Bracewell worked for a short time in Vancouver as a gov-erness, but the wild spirit inside drove her
to accept a job on a ranch deep in B.C.’s Chilcotin backcoun-try.
There she met her lifelong friend and mentor KB Moore. Through sheer per-severance Bracewell became his lead hand and soon discovered that ranching in the Chilcotin was a harsh way of life.
Determined to suc-ceed, she learned to ride even the toughest
of horses and fight off bears, cougars, wolves and coyotes to keep the cattle herd safe.
Recognizing Brace-well’s passion for the outdoors and her natural tracking and guiding ability, Moore brought her into his family and trained her to become B.C.’s first licensed female hunt-ing guide. Known as a fiery, adventurous woman, Bracewell became a legend in
her field, forging a path for herself and breaking established gender norms.
Gerry, Get Your Gun is the story of the unyielding pio-neer world of B.C.’s Interior through the experiences of one of the toughest women you will ever meet.
Bracewell’s book is available online at caitlin–press.com or at many local book-stores.
At 93, Gerry Bracewell published her autobiography of life as a hunting guide.

The Tillicum Society Friendship Centre has just com-pleted a $300,000 rejuvenation of the facility on North Fraser Drive.
Plans have been in the works for several years and thanks to the � nancial assistance as well as planning and consulting help, Phase 1 of their long-range project was � nished.
Community Futures helped with planning and proposal development as did Nate Bello and Jim Savage along with support from political leaders such as Mary Sjostrom. Finan-cial contributions included Cariboo Chilcotin Beetle Ac-tion Coalition, Northern Development – Intiative Trust, BC Creative Spaces program with the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development and Enabling Accessibility funding from the federal government.
After a building assessment which determined the Friend-ship Centre was structurally sound, work began on establish-ing the priorities. This was the � rst substantial renovation on the building since it’s construction in 1974.
Executive director Sandy Brunton said the hall and the kitchen were top of the list.
“We wanted to create a safe, welcoming and updated space for users,” he said.
Second on the consideration list was increasing the energy ef� ciency of the building which would save money on their monthly expenses. Third was handicapped accessibility and � nally cosmetic upgrades to the front of the building.
Windows and exterior doors, plus improving the insulation in the building also helped increase the security. Flooring was also upgraded.
The hall has a new stage with upgraded electronic acces-sibility and new wood wall coverings, providing a lighter, warmer atmosphere as well as the improved lighting. The kitchen saw the most upgrades, with new cabinets, counters, commercial-grade appliances including a unique dual pur-pose refrigerator which can convert from a fridge to freezer depending on demand.
“Once we � nished the interior, we knew we needed to ad-dress the entrance way outside which pushed us a little over budget but well worth it,” he said.
The work was completed by Icon Homes and Brunton was very pleased with the quality of the work.
He went on to say in their original design plans they’d hoped to include the construction of a large circular gather-ing place on adjacent land the society owns which would have also enable them to convert the current hall to of� ce space.
“We’re bursting at the seems,” he said.“But that construction will be under the guidance of a new
executive director.”Brunton is retiring at the end of June.“We received good value for money spent,” he said.“We wanted a place aboriginal people would be proud
of and a welcoming space for the community at large. And we’ve accomplish that.”
He also added the newly-renovated hall is available for public rentals with a 188-person capacity, an updated kitchen and stage facilities.
Friendship Centre receives much-needed rejuvenation
Phase 1 of new look

NEWS
The Sunset Theatre is launching the Cariboo’s First Shakespeare Festival with two plays running in rep throughout the summer.
William Shakespeare’s Hamlet and the world premiere of Godhead by award winning Canadian Playwright Michaela Jef-fery will be the flag-ship productions for the 2015 summer season.
Hamlet is considered Shakespeare’s most popular as well as re-vered works. Considered the last play he wrote, it is an epic classic that delves into the psyche of the human spirit explor-ing greed, love, passion, power, fear, betrayal good ol’ paranoia and mad-ness play! What is so identifiable with Hamlet, is that all of these emo-tions touch each one of us in varying ways and it is how we choose to deal with that informs our world. Hamlet’s choices set him on a course from which he is unable to
recover. Hamlet will be played by Devin MacKin-non who trained at the National Theatre School of Canada.
Directed by Tim Suther-land, Godhead, is a new play by Michaela Jef-fery, an award winning playwright. Set in rural Canada, a troubled bull rider confronts a tired televangelist and begs him to save his soul. Is he possessed, or just trying to outrun his dark side? This unsettling drama pits our desire for salvation against our fear of being brought to reckoning.
Having an annual Shakespeare Festival has been a life-long dream of owner and director Karen Jeffery, “it’s taken 15 years to get to this point and it’s really exciting, a little scary but this has been the vision behind the theatre since I purchased it in 1999 and we are ready to take this next step.”
Hamlet and Other New Works is the theme the
Sunset Theatre is hoping to carry it into the future. Along with Hamlet and Godhead, the Sunset is re-establishing its Ex-ploration Series of new plays. Plays have been submitted from all across the country and will have their first public read-
ing at the Sunset Theatre throughout the summer. The Exploration Series was originally launched in 2006 and was instru-mental in bringing Jake’s Gift to life. Written and performed by Wellsian’s Julia Mackey and Di-rected by Dirk VanStralen, this multi-award-winning theatrical gem has now played close to 800 performances touching more than 80,000 people. “Finding new Canadian plays that we can produce at the Sunset Theatre is at the core of what the the-atre was established for.”
In addition to Hamlet and Godhead running in rep, the Sunset is also presenting the popular The Fred Wells Show with James Douglas, directed by Danette Boucher which tells the story of how the little town of Wells with a heart of gold came to life, Jabberwacky by Zaryevka Ballet based on Lewis Carol’s famous classic and the Sunset Cabaret.
Helping us kick off the season is a special ap-pearance by The Demon Squadron and The Foxx Follies Bottoms Up Burlesque, followed by the deeply moving sounds of Juno Award Nominee and Aboriginal Artist of the Year Marcel Gagnon whose songs resonate with the truth of experi-ences and issues that affect all of us.
An evening of classical music with renowned cellist Morag Northey and PGSO Music Direc-tor Kevin Zakresky will delight audiences with repertoire that explores the themes of love in there chamber concert entitled Ùnstoppable Love. Rounding out the season, TJ Dawe will join us at the Sunset with his one man show Marathon, a funny and enlighten-ing story about running track and field to please his high-school-principal-dad and failing miser-ably. Now in its third season, the Moonrise Film
Festival will be present-ing an array of films that have been submitted from around the globe.
Of course it wouldn’t be a summer without the annual youth drama camp which over the past two seasons has been focusing on musical theatre. This year, the Musical Theatre Boot Camp will be work-ing on the popular Broad-way hit, Spelling Bee.
With the launching of the Annual Shakespeare Festival, the Sunset The-atre has been working on establishing itself as a destination theatre where audiences can delight in taking in some great plays, explore the area, visit the galleries, Barker-ville and support some of Canada`s top theatre and performing artists.
