The group asked the Village for approval in principal, advice or assistance on making grant applications, and direction on providing infor- mation to the public. Coun. Al Mertens said he could envision conflict between dog walkers and other users on the hard track. Dogs run off leash in the fenced area, said Downs, while people use the track.

Ashcroft residents Monty Downs with Viv-ian Edwards and Kitty Murray have an idea to turn a portion of the poll park into a fenced area for families and dogs to stretch their legs.

The group made their proposal to Ashcroft Council at a March 23 committee meeting, hoping for the south end of the lower terrace, an area about 300x690 feet.

“We would like an opportunity to demon-strate that people and pets can recreate together without con� ict,” Monty Downs told Council.

The group said they would look for grant money to cover the facilities they wanted for the new area if Council approved letting them use the land. Council has not made a decision yet.

The group would like to fence the area and have double-gated entrances, drinking water, sitting area with trees for shade, doggie bags and garbage cans, a hard surfaced trail and a large open grassed area for play.

Downs said that aside from supporting the Village’s Wellness brand, the new facilities would attract new users to the park and offer social activities for dogs and their owners. He spoke of a place where families with dogs could come and enjoy some time together and where walkers, joggers, roller bladers, bike riders and others could all use the hard surface track.

“We hope to have it in place by the end of the year,” he said, and hold a grand opening at next year’s Wellness Festival.

The group asked the Village for approval in principal, advice or assistance on making grant applications, and direction on providing infor-mation to the public.

Coun. Al Mertens said he could envision con� ict between dog walkers and other users on the hard track.

Dogs run off leash in the fenced area, said Downs, while people use the track.

He added that the group hoped they could enter into a stewardship agreement with the Vil-lage, since the Village already maintains the park.

“You talk about multiple users but people don’t go to dog parks without dogs,” said Jim Duncan, who was in the audience for another discussion.

“I have been to mixed use dog parks,” re-plied Kitty Murray.

“Are we so afraid of the con� ict between man and dogs that we just want to avoid it?” said Downs.

Cache Creek Council sensed a glimmer of hope in the provincial gov-ernment’s new transportation plan, B.C. on the Move.

The Village has been asking to have the small bridge on Hwy 97 at the north end of town widened to four lanes for several years now. When the Cariboo Connector was announced in 2005, widening the bridge was listed as being a Phase 1 project. But it fell off the page and now Phase 2 is about to start, along with a major paving project in town..

And there, on page 27 of the plan, is a picture with a caption stating: The Province will work with local gov-ernments, including Cache Creek and

Quesnel, to identify future projects pri-orities to improve safety and reduce traf� c congestion through their com-munities.”

“The only thing we’ve lobbied hard for is four-laning the bridge,” he said.

Council approved a motion to have the Village administration contact Ministry of Transportation and refer-ence the caption “and say we’re happy to discuss our project priorities with them” as a way of keeping the project on the “front burner” with the Ministry.

POLICE REPORTWendy Coomber

Truck runs into bridgeMarch 26 at 2:40 am police were

called to a single vehicle accident on Hwy 97C at the north end of the Ash-croft bridge where the driver of a south-bound Ford Ranger lost control com-ing down the hill and struck an abut-ment, destroying the front end of the truck. The 19 year old Ashcroft man was wearing his seatbelt at the time and suffered no serious injuries. The driver was still at the scene of the accident and an odour of liquor was detected on his breath. He was administered a roadside sobriety test and blew a Warn for which he was given a three-day immediate driving suspension.

Police attend eviction noticeMarch 26 at 11:50 am police at-

tended the Nugget motel at the request of the manager while he served evic-

tion notices to two of the residents. The manager felt threatened but everything was fairly peaceful.

Deer killedMarch 26 at 11:55 am police at-

tended a single vehicle accident on Hwy 1 just west of Juniper Beach for a deer collision. The 50 year old Wil-liams Lake woman suffered no injur-ies but the deer had to be put down. Her Toyota Tacoma had moderate damage.

Arguing room matesMarch 26 at 4 pm police were

called to a Cache Creek residence af-ter an argument between room mates, a 56 year old woman and a 35 year old male, got physical as one of the parties was speaking and gesturing and accidentally made contact with the other’s nose. A wit-ness confirmed that it was un-intentional. No charges laid.

Abandoned truck damagedMarch 27 at 6:15 pm po-

lice received a call regarding a vehicle parked behind the Tin-gley St. apartments that had been damaged. Police attended and noted that all of the win-dows had been smashed in the vehicle. A check with ICBC showed that the vehicle hadn’t been registered for five years, but the last known owner, a 60 year old Victoria man, was notified. He is also the prop-erty’s owner.

No signs of injuryMarch 27 at 9:30 pm police re-

ceived an abandoned 911 call from a public pay phone in Cache Creek near the Grubstake. Police located the call-er by the phone who reported an as-sault at the Nugget motel. The 31 year old man, himself a resident of the Nug-get, said the assault arose from an argu-ment between the motel’s manager and another tenant, a 60 year old woman. The woman was taken to the hospital for examination but showed no signs of injury. An investigation was unable to establish who instigated the argument. Both tenants had been served with eviction notices the day before.

Tired and hungryMarch 28 at 2 pm police were called

to an open area to the north of the Sand-man Inn where a transient male was sleeping and refused to leave. The 53 year old Vernon man was located and appeared somewhat confsed, but indi-cated he was travelling from Vernon to Vancouver. He had no money and no food. He was taken to the hospital for a checkup and released.

The following afternoon at 1:30 pm police were called by hospital staff be-cause the same man was sleeping on the grass in front of the hospital. He had been assessed the night before and found all right, fed and released. There was no medical reason to admit him. He was offered, and accepted, a ride back to the highway to continue his trip to the coast.

Early morning assaultMarch 30 at 5:55 am a 32 year old

Ashcroft man used the Detachment’s public phone to report that he had been assaulted in his residence by one of his drinking guests. He was taken to the hospital and treated for minor head wounds and released. He did not wish to pursue charges.

Grass fire in townMarch 30 at 4:15 pm police assist-

ed the Ashcroft Fire Dept. with traf-fic control while they tended to a grass fire that had been caused by a downed power line near the Mesa Vista trail-er park. Winds were blowing strongly in the area at the time. Police assisted until BC Hydro arrived.

Local plant gets safety award

Students gain job skills at Constantia workshop

I.G. Machine & Fibers Ltd. of Ashcroft has received a Mine Safe-ty Award from the B.C. govern-ment.

The company received the Stewart O’Brian Safety Award, which is presented to operations with 35,000 to 200,000 work-er hours and the lowest injury-fre-quency rate.

“I.G. Machine & Fibres Ltd. continues to demonstrate a strong commitment to the safety of its workers,” Fraser-Nicola MLA Jackie Tegart said. “The mine pro-vides safe and secure jobs to many workers in the Ashcroft area, and I am proud to have this business in my home community.”

The Mine Safety Awards were presented to mines and quarries operating in British Columbia that had the lowest injury-frequency rate during the previous calen-dar year. The companies acknow-ledged are leaders in workplace safety in an industry that is critical to B.C.’s diverse, strong and grow-ing economy.

One other mining operation in Fraser-Nicola was also recog-nized. Copper Mountain Mine Ltd. in Princeton received the Edward Prior Award, which is presented to operations with 200,000 to 1 mil-lion worker hours and the lowest injury-frequency rate.

Abottsford NewsThe nomination period opened last week for

the Conservative candidate for Mission-Mats-qui-Fraser Canyon and closed on April 2.

Conservative party members will choose their representative for the 2015 federal elec-tion for the new riding. The day and location of the nomination meeting will be communi-cated to members at a later date, according to Cory Hann, director of communications for the Conservative Party of Canada.

The riding was created in the reshap-ing of Canada’s elec-toral map, and is one of 30 new ridings across the country. The area contains the northernmost portion of Abbotsford, all of Mission, Agassiz and Harrison Hot Springs, and runs up through the Interior, north of Lillooet and Ashcroft. MP Mark Strahl will run in the new riding of Chilliwack-Hope.

Six candidates who have announced intentions to run, in-cluding Ashcroft busi-

nessman and retired mayor Andy Anderson. The five other candidates are from Abbotsford: Liv Grewal, Doris Woodman-McMillan, Korky Neufeld, Paul Redekopp and Brad Vis.

The Liberal party has already selected its candidate for the upcoming election: Abbots-ford businessman Jatinder (Jati) Sidhu. Art Green of Hope will run for the Green party.

The 2015 federal election is slated for Oc-tober.

Constantia Resources sponsored a Job Skills Workshop on March 20 in co-operation the High Bar First Na-tion and Village of Clinton. The work-shop was part of the recently signed Co-operation and Benefits Agreement

between Con-stantia and High Bar First Nation.

The work-

shop was held at the Clinton Commun-ity Hall with 11 students from the High Bar First Nation, Whispering Pines/Clinton Band, Canoe Creek and Clin-ton area. They were taught how to ef-fectively communicate to a potential employer by having a well prepared re-sume and excellent interviewing skills.

They learned how to: a) Recognize the key elements of good versus bad re-sumes; b) Write clear, brief and com-

plete descriptions of their work ex-perience; c) Recognize what employ-ers look for during an interview; and d) Answer interview questions more ef-fectively.

Mayor Jim Rivett attended to speak about the importance of the workshop for gaining employment, while the Mill Girl Follies provided an excellent lunch that was enjoyed by all. The hall was provided by the Village of Clinton.

It’s never too early to start thinking about entries for the Fall Fair.

The Ashcroft & District Fall Fair is only five and a half months away. Keep that in mind when you are planning your bee-utiful vege-table and flower plantings.

If you’re handy with a camera, there are great photo opportunities at any time of the year that fit in nicely with the Photography categor-ies. Consider a rain-drenched flower or leaf for the Plant or Agriculture categories. Or perhaps a snowy Sunrise or Landscape picture.

Oh, wait. We’re not expecting anymore snow between now and September!

This year’s theme is the bee, as in Bee In-spired! It wouldn’t be a bad idea to place bees in any of your Fair entries, but it’s easy to include them in photographs at this time of the year, as those busy little honeybees are out in force now in the fruit tree blossoms and anywhere else there are flowers.

Regardless of the category, whenever you’re taking pictures, look for good lighting and good contrast and try to find a unique angle to take it from - something to make it stand out from other pictures.

If you’re entering it in the general Colour or Black and White categories, look for scenes that are either very colourful, or very low colour but high contrast.

Use public gatherings and community events to get a good People picture.

And then don’t forget to enter your photos and come to the Fall Fair – Sept. 13 from 10am-5pm at the Ashcroft arena.

LOCAL APRICOT BLOSSOMS were out in full bloom after recent warm weather

One of the highlights of Budget 2015 unveiled last month was our commitment to bring high-speed In-ternet connectivity to more people in rural and remote areas of B.C.

In fact, our goal is to see every British Columbian, no matter where they live, have access to high-speed Internet by 2021 – and we will work with other levels of government and the private sector to make this happen.

Under our 10-year, $1-billion agreement with Telus, we have al-

ready seen bandwidth up-grades in the Fraser-Nic-ola communities of Clinton, Lytton and Gold Bridge.

We are also continuing to connect B.C.’s First Na-tions at a steady pace. To date, 184 of B.C.’s 203 First Nations communities now have access to broadband infrastructure and we are working to see all 203 con-nected by the end of fiscal

year 2016-17.In the Ashcroft-Cache Creek-

Spences Bridge area to date, the Ash-croft, Bonaparte, Skeetchestn, Cooks Ferry, Oregon Jack and Lytton First Nations have Internet access.

This is made possible through Pathways to Technology, a $48.8-mil-lion federal/provincial project de-signed specifically to connect First Nations communities to the Internet.

For people in the riding who live

along Hwy 97, it is worth noting that our agreement with Telus has resulted in new service being added to 258 kilometres along Hwy 97 over the past five years.

Connecting people in rural and re-mote areas to high-speed Internet ser-vice helps level the playing field with people in urban areas.

What does high-speed Internet ac-cess mean to people in rural and re-mote areas? Not only does it connect families, but it also improves access to educational opportunities and health-care services, creates jobs, and ex-pands markets for businesses – con-necting local firms to domestic, na-tional and global customers.

Our government believes all resi-dents of Fraser-Nicola should be able to share the rich potential for econom-ic, educational and social benefits high-speed Internet access can bring. And rest assured we are going to make it happen.

BC Press CouncilThe Journal is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s

newspaper industry. The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder. If talking with the editor or publisher does not resolve your complaint about coverage or story treatment, you may

contact the B.C. Press Council.

Your written concern, with documentation, should be sent within 45 days to B.C. Press Council, PO Box 1356, Ladysmith, B.C. V9G 1A9. For information, phone 888-687-2213 or go to www.bcpresscouncil.org

Anyone who grew up in the 50s and 60s will remember watching “spy” mov-ies and TV shows where the good guys (spies) always outwitted the bad guys using ultra high tech sleuthing equipment like tiny cameras embedded in pens and pen-dants and tape recorders (yes - reel to reels) disguised as cigar boxes. And recording “bugs” planted in the light fixtures.

Of course, those were the days of the Cold War with Russia and we knew who were the good and bad guys.

Fast forward several decades and those gains in stealth technology have been put into use here at home.

It used to be that putting someone under surveillance was a big thing that required a really good reason and a court order. Not anymore. With computers, it’s just so easy to intercept data - most of us obligingly put it “out there” without even thinking for the whole world to see. Emails, pictures, finan-cial transactions, phone logs - it’s all there.

Public surveillance cameras in stores and public buildings are so common that we barely bat an eye at them anymore. Health records, office files, financial rec-ords are routinely outsourced.

We constantly struggle with privacy issues versus the right to know.

The District of Saanich went from the shadows to the spotlight this week when the Information and Privacy Commissioner slapped them on the wrist for secretly mon-itoring their employees, mostly through computer use. The commissioner said it violated the privacy rights of employees and elected officials and told them to de-stroy any data collected.

How much of the data collected on us is even used? There is so much of it that will never see the light of day. On the other hand, some of it can destroy a person’s life if it results in their name being placed er-roneously on a list banned from travel, or wiping out a bank account, having contact with suspicious individuals or groups, etc.

Because with digital surveillance, puni-tive action is usually swift and anonymous. There’s no “facing your accuser” that we associate with living in a democracy.

It’s hard to be unknown these days.

What is the TNRD Bylaw Notice Dispute Adjudication System about?

The new Notice Enforcement Bylaw sets out the penalties and the period for paying or disputing Bylaw Notices received for violating the provisions of the campground, building regulations, unsightly premises, dangerous dogs, zoning, solid waste, noise control and water system regulations bylaws. The bylaw also allows for a dispute adjudication system to resolve disputes in relation to issued Bylaw Notices.

When does it come in to effect?

Notice Enforcement Bylaw No. 2500 comes into effect April 1, 2015.

Why is the new program being introduced?

The system is intended to resolve bylaw violations and notice disputes in a simple, cost-effective manner. The new Bylaw Notice Dispute Adjudication System will improve efficiencies in the area of paying and collecting fines as well as delivering a streamlined process to the public.

How will it affect me?

If you receive a Bylaw Notice for violating one of the TNRD bylaws listed above, you will have 30 days to either pay the fine or dispute the Notice through the Dispute Adjudication System without having to go through the Provincial court system (which can take up to 6 months). An independent adjudicator will hear the dispute instead, possibly resolving the dispute in one month.

What are the benefits?

The new system will provide the following benefits:

Simplifies and expedites the dispute processes by removing minor bylaw violations from the Provincial court system;

Reduces costs associated with using the court system (lawyers and the time spent by enforcement officers waiting to testify);

Includes dedicated staff members (the Screening Officers) to act as a resource to help residents dealing with bylaw tickets and the dispute process.

Allows residents to dispute tickets in-person, in writing or over the phone; Provides additional flexibility to encourage bylaw compliance as opposed

to a strict enforcement focused system.

How do I get more information?

For more information, please contact [email protected] or visit the TNRD website at www.tnrd.ca.

Dear EditorThanks Barbara, for explaining the

doctor situation in Lillooet and Lyt-ton.

But what it has done is confirm my contention that the communities around us are either getting doctors, or already have them. And we are not.

If three are expected in Lytton, as you have written, by the end of April, and Lillooet already has five, it is ob-vious we have not been successful.

These communities are doing something that we are not. Let’s find out what it is.

I heard a rumour that a handsome annuity is involved to the tune of $100 K. If so, is it federal money?

Half a dozen persons have ex-

pressed agreement with the opinions in my letter to the editor about the doctor shortage here. The word ‘savy’ is slang, but the meaning is unmistak-able. It is understanding, shrewdness, according to my dictionary.

I read Alice Durksen’s column about efforts that are being made to recruit ‘on line’. I’m afraid that is not terribly reassuring.

What is surfacing is anxious con-cern. Our large senior popula-tion demands on-going med-ical attention. When doctors leave and they are not replaced forthwith, there is a domino ef-fect, involving pharmaceutical needs and the availability of crucial medications for chronic conditions.

There is a lot at stake here. Human lives. If the tone of my letter offended any one, I can’t help that. As a 40 year resident

of this area, I have seen the erosion of medical doctors and hospital facilities that are absolutely perishing.

We are all of us aware that the problem is large, but merely writing it off as the usual kind of problem in other communities, well, that is just not good enough.

Many people experiencing strange or unusual health issues hesitate going to see a doctor, often because they’re afraid the symptoms might lead to a diagnosis of cancer. Most of the time the symptoms aren’t cancer at all; but if they are, early presentation and diagnosis is vital, and can dramatically improve outcomes.

Many types of cancer can, if caught early, be treated effectively and completely. If you have an ongoing, undiagnosed health issue or concern, see your doctor immediately. If there is a history of a certain type of cancer in your family, ask your doctor what screening tests can be done.

Even if you don’t have any current health issues, or a family history of cancer, there are different tests available depending on your age and gender that you should ask your doctor about. These tests are effective ways of detecting cancer when it’s still in the early stages.

And while many people think that getting cancer is down to bad luck or genetic factors, the truth is that up to half of

all cancer cases are caused by lifestyle and environmental factors.

To lessen your chance of getting cancer, follow a few simple rules:

» limit the amount of direct sunlight you get, and if you have to be out in the sun for long periods of time cover up and wear sunscreen

» avoid indoor tanning beds

» stop smoking, and moderate your alcohol intake

» make sure to get 5 – 10 servings of fruit or vegetable per day

» keep active; even a moderate amount of activity a few times a week will help keep you healthy

» maintain a healthy body weight

A few words with your doctor, and a few lifestyle changes, can help ensure that you remain cancer-free. Cancer can be beaten; join in the fight today.

Brain: Primary brain

tumours start in the brain and can be either benign

More than 90 percent of testicular cancers start in germ cells, which are the sperm-forming cells within the testicles.

Other types of cancer can spread to the testicles, at which point they are called testicular metastasis.

It is the most common cancer to occur in young men who are between

15 and 29 years old.

WOHLLEBEN, Herbert - passed away peacefully at the age of 90 years from Jackson House Residential Care in Ashcroft.

“Big Herb” was born in Apolda Germany and came to Canada at a very young age, celebrating his 4th birthday at Hat Creek Ranch. He was raised in Ashcroft and remained in this area for his entire life. From the age of 14 he worked alongside his father at Hat Creek Ranch before taking a job with Pacific Great Eastern Rail (now known as BC Rail). He then returned to Hat Creek Ranch before moving into the lumber business and from there moved to Bethlehem Copper where he was employed as a millwright for many years.

He is survived by his sister Carla (Bill) Karikstad, and his children Phyllis Rainey, Leeann (Barry) Zasitko, Jim (Tanis) Cripps, and lan Cripps, grandchildren Adam, Brian, Rob, Kyle, Crystal as well as his great grandchildren Emma, Kiarra and Natalie and other extended family members. Herb was predeceased by Madeline, his wife of 20 years, in 1972, and Lee, his wife of 18 years in 1995. Herb was predeceased by his sister Irma (Wes) Smith.

Herb was a very talented craftsman who enjoyed working with his hands. He was a skilled woodworker who could make just about anything you could imagine or want. He was equally capable at needle point or cross stitch, and loved to tend his vegetable garden. He played crib at the Royal Canadian Legion for many years, and participated in many out of town tournaments. In later years he loved to watch curling, and Toronto Blue Jays games on the television. He was gentle and kind man who had a wonderful sense of humour and loved spending time with his family.

Donations in Memory of Herb may be made to the Family Friends Society of the Ashcroft Hospital PO Box 773 Ashcroft, BC VOK 1A0.

Herb was a very independent man and was able to remain living in his own home until the end of January of this year before moving into residential care at the Ashcroft Hospital. The family would like to give a heartfelt thanks to all the people who have helped support Herb including all of the doctors and nurses, care staff and home care support workers who have played such a strong role in helping him. Help from the all the staff at Jackson House and the hospital was greatly appreciated by Herb, and his family.

There will be no formal services held. An Online condolence book can be found at www.tvfh.ca

Wine Tasting and Murder MysteryJoin WRAPS and The Rotary Club

for a co-presented event of Wine Tast-ing and Community Theatre. With appe-tizers, dessert and an interactive murder mystery!

This event takes place May 2 from 7-9pm at the Ashcroft Community Hall. The evening features an alcoholic bever-age tasting (wine, sparkling wine, ales, ciders), with coffee by Beans Roast-ed Right, appetizers and an interactive, comedic murder mystery performed by WRAPS! Tickets are available at Interior Savings Ashcroft and all Rotarians.

When a loud, annoying hypochondri-ac disappears and is presumed murdered while celebrating an evening out, the only objective witnesses are the audience members, who must cast their vote. Was it one of her sisters? The self-taught de-tective? The passionate French chef? The sarcastic waiter? No one is above suspi-cion in this delightful dinner theatre mur-

der mystery!

Camels celebrated

Local artists set to shine

Clinton Annual BallThe 148th Clinton Annual Ball is slated to

take place on Saturday, May 16 in the Clinton Memorial Hall.

The theme this year is ‘Camels in the Cari-boo’, a tribute to the (failed) experiment to use camels as pack animals during the Cariboo Gold Rush.

As in the past the evening will be have sit-down dinner, dancing and entertainment in sync with the theme. I don’t want to give it away so I’ll just say it will be entertainment not to be missed (especially for the men!).

Some tickets are still available for this event. If you would like to purchase tickets drop by the Clinton Emporium or Country Squire Gift Shop in Clinton or phone Yvette May at 250-459-7725.

Hope to see you there!

Be Fire SavvyIt’s very dry out there so please take care

with campfires, grass burning, cigarette butts, etc. The BC Wildfire Branch is warning that this could be a busy year for wildfires due to our very dry winter and spring. There have already been a number of fires in BC this year so please be careful.

Happy EasterI just want to take a moment to wish every-

one a happy Easter weekend. Take care if you are out and about. With Spring Break and Easter combined there are lots more vehicles on the roads so drive with care.

Rick Scott and his dulcimer on the cover of his CD, The Great Gazoon. Scott performs for both young and not quite so young. He’ll be in Ashcroft on Apr. 12 performing for the second group.

Not many performers are as com-fortable performing in front of children as they are in front of “the big kids”, but award-winning singer, songwriter, ac-tor, and storyteller Rick Scott is equal-ly at home whether the average age of his audience is six or 60. On Sunday, April 12 Scott brings his unique talent to Ashcroft, where he’ll be performing a “big kids” concert at St. Alban’s Hall.

Scott, who has been performing for more than 40 years, first rose to prom-inence as a singer and dulcimer player in the legendary folk groups Pied Pum-kin and Pied Pear. He turned to acting in the 1980s, appearing in stage pro-ductions such as Barnum (for which he learned to tightrope walk), Reflec-tions on Crooked Walking, and Angry Housewives. His Rick Scott Band toured Canada and won awards for Best Independent Club Act and Independ-ent Album of the Year at the Tribute to West Coast Music.

In 1990 Scott turned his attention to younger audiences, and has since re-leased seven albums for children, in-cluding the award-winning The Great Gazzoon, described as “a folk tale told by a folkie”. All his concerts combine music and laughter in a lively style that invites and welcomes audience partici-pation. His acting and storytelling abil-ities allow him to combine wacky hu-mour and poignant human commentary in a way that has earned him a devot-ed following from four generations of audience members in nine countries.

The Victoria Folk Club called Scott’s show “incredible,” adding that he has “a wonderful stage presence and a magical way of connecting with the audience.” CHLY Radio in Nanaimo said that “Rick Scott will have you smiling like a child with his engaging big folks repertoire. What lucky adults to be growing younger to the heartfelt stories and songs of this ageless elder/man/boy,” while CBC Radio’s Jurgen

Gothe said “Rick’s music . . . is delight-ful, educational, accessible, and innov-ative. It’s funny, clever, and warm. It’s not only important to Canadian music - it’s essential.”

The Winding Rivers Arts and Per-formance Society is proud to being Rick Scott and his engaging big folks repertoire to Ashcroft, with a concert on April 12 at 3pm at St. Alban’s Hall

on Brink Street. Tickets can be pur-chased in advance at Ashcroft Bakery, UniTea, Nature’s Gifts, and the Cari-boo Jade Shop (prices higher at the door; refreshments available by dona-tion).

Don’t miss this wonderful oppor-tunity to see a great Canadian perform-er as he brings his magic to town!
