Holiday season a chance to support homegrown businesses and shop localBY CAITLIN THOMPSON
Christmas is about to begin knocking down your door so it’s the perfect chance to knock on the doors of some our many local businesses. Bella Coola may be small but it hosts a large number of unique storefronts, many operating out of people’s homes and residences, a testament to the entrepre-neurial business spirit of the Valley.
There are also several new businesses on the block this year. Beginning in Hagensborg you’ll find
Licensed Esthetician Laura Kloss’s new salon, Bella Coola Beauty Essentials.
Offering a full range of spa procedures at com-petitive prices, Laura’s new space sparkles with a genuine salon feeling, and is as bright and welcoming as the hostess herself. Her recently renovated space includes a cozy fireplace for those chilly days, and ample room to relax and feel pampered.
She provides expert skin advice and carries an exclusive product line from Europe. Her business offers monthly specials
and services for men, women, and children; something new to the Valley that hasn’t been offered before.
“I really wanted to do something for children because it is so much fun for both them and their parents,” she explained. “It’s an experience every-one can enjoy.”
Bella Coola Beauty Essentials is located on 2480 Douglas Drive South in Hagensborg and open Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Gift certificates are available. For an appointment call 250 982
2738.Traveling into central
Hagensborg it’s the first Christmas season at Abra Silver’s organic grocery store, Mountain Valley Organics. This month Abra will be doing a draw for a fresh, organic turkey just in time for your Christmas dinner. Her store is a smorgasbord of pleasant aromas, textures and visual treats.
Abra’s a natural designer so shopping at Mountain Valley Organics feels like you’re entering your favourite neighbour’s kitchen, and it kind of is! “I
want to provide a venue for local sell their goods,” said Abra. “There is so much wonderful food and locally made gifts here, we don’t need to go elsewhere.”
Mountain Valley Organics stocks all organic produce and dried goods, as well as items such as reusable stainless steel lunch containers, Buff’s, local art, baskets, cards, jewelry, gift certificates and handmade chocolates. This month will also fea-ture Sie Padgett’s famous bake sale.
If you are in need of some pampering there is
one great option you can’t miss. Walleah Moody of Coastal Spirit Massage is trained in reiki, acupres-sure, reflexology and Shiatsu massage and oper-ates out of her beautifully renovated new massage room at her home in Hagensborg.
This month Coastal Spirit Massage is joined by fellow practitioner Joel Fox, who is also accepting clients. They are available by appointment - call 250 982 2580 to book.

“We’ve got several unique items such as beautiful Fenton Vintage Glass. Our high end jewelry will be on a limited time special for Christmas next week and sales will change weekly, so come in and see us today,” said owner Bea Silver. “We can open on request for special occasions and e offer-ing gift wrapping free of charge.”
Stopping in at the airport you will be lucky to find yourself tucked away at The Little Nook Cafe. Owned by Gwyneth Anderson, Little Nook also prides itself on
homegrown treats and talents. A trained culi-nary artist, Gwyneth spends her time creat-ing delicious home-made sandwiches and scrumptious desserts.
Her sweet little shop is the perfect place to grab a coffee and soak up some of that famous airport sunshine, whether you’re on the way out of town or not! You will also find first-class knitting and crocheted goods from Sherry Mack and Denise Hall, as well as original jew-elry made by her sister Taisa Anderson. She’s open from Monday to Friday, 8am to 2pm.
Dragonfly Studios, located along Snootli Stretch, is both home and business to well-known artist Tahirih Goffic, who is as cel-ebrated for her art as her wonderful cook-ing. She has created a cozy and welcoming space to hang out, browse her original
paintings, leather jew-elry, local pottery, and gifts of all kinds.
Tahirih offers specialty coffee, home baked goodies (including a lot of glu-ten-free baking) and also creates amazing cakes upon request. She’s open from Tuesday to Saturday from 8:30am - 4:30 and her famous soup is served on Saturdays!
Kelsey Levelton is celebrating a little more than Christmas these days at her fun and funky gift shop, Tse Tse Fly. She’s also celebrating five years in business!
Located adjacent to her home in lower Bella Coola, Tse Tse Fly is a delight to enter on any occasion, but especially holidays. With a flair for deco-rating, Kelsey’s store is filled with Christmas Cheer and fun gifts for all ages.
“Shopping local keeps money in the
Valley,” says Kelsey. “It’s one of many ways we can keep support-ing each other.”
If you are look-ing for the perfect Christmas gift, Tse Tse Fly really does have something for everyone. Carrying a large selection of fancy sweaters, leggings and dresses, as well as kid’s items and jewelry, some really interesting wooden watches, and tasty treats (fudge!), it’s a fun place to shop.
One of the pillars of downtown, Kopas Store has stocked up on some amazing children’s toys for the holiday season. Kopas has been in business for over 75 years and carries a wide selec-tion of locally-made silver jewelry from the Valley’s top carvers, as well as local book titles, winter cloth-ing, outdoor gear and accessories, and foot-wear.
Ace Hardware

I don’t know that anyone mentioned it, but I believe this was the 40th annual Arts and Crafts Fair in Bella Coola. Some of those early Arts council members may be able to correct
me on this, but it was definitely one of the early events that the Arts Council initiated in the 1970’s. What a lot of work over the years, and what a lot of fun. A number of people have said to me that they thought events like the A & C Fair really brought the community together.
This year was a little smaller than in other years, but sales were the best ever, at least in recent years. Over 400 people attended the event which featured the perennial Lasagna supper. Many thanks to the women who organized this and did the work in putting this popular supper on the table.
I am afraid to men-tion names because I will miss out some, but definitely Liz Endicott, and the ‘Tutt girls’, Wenda Silver, and I saw Pauline Enderud there help-ing out even though she retired from doing this some years ago. Others helped with serving and cleaning up. They also decorat-ed the hall with lights and Christmas tree, which pleased me no end as I didn’t have to fight with that beast of a tree stored in the stage attic space.
There were many of the regular vendors including the Hospital
Auxiliary with their well decorated booth, CC4Africa with lots of edible items for sale, Helga with her light show, and Denise Casperson with her baked goods and soap. Denise did very well with her sales, and in a very gener-ous gesture turned over her income to the Hospital auxiliary.
Some of the new vendors this year were Vicki Tuck with a beautifully set up booth selling pictures burned into wood or mushrooms (yes, I said mushrooms). Wayne Padgett had his new and first book for sale describ-ing some of his early days in the Valley – stories and poems. Veronica Andy had some amazing home knit sweaters avail-able, other knitted items, as well as carv-ings by her son Brad. Lucille Thompson showed some of her many paintings and was pleased to have a number of sales. Ida Eriksen has been sew-ing up a storm making dresses, aprons and bags.
Other vendors included Keith and Brenda Smart (who missed last year’s fair because of the awful weather we had – remember?). Then there were Erin Chapman with her
soap, Adel Robson and her pies and goodies, Wilma Hallam and her quilts, Marlene Anderson with no honey this year, but lots of other offer-ings, Terry Diehl and her jewelry, Doreen Desrosiers and many crafted items, Lindsey Gericke, Stephanie Severin, Barb Solhjell, Dana Chapman, Anna Ratcliff, David Stanger, and Sarah Matthews, all of whom contrib-uted to a successful and fun fair.
I shouldn’t forget to mention that we were able to make special arrangements for Santa to visit on Sunday. He tells me he enjoyed seeing all the children at the fair and was pleased to be able to make a quick trip into Bella Coola. Thanks also to Caroline Johnson, music teacher at SAMS, who orga-nized an impromptu choir to sing a few Christmas Carols Saturday night.
As always the Arts and Crafts Fair would not happen without long time organizers such as Sheila Wilson, the cooks, the vendors who made the effort to set up their booths and have items for sale, and of course, the many community members who came to the fair.
See you next year!

Spiritual ReThink With Pastor Cameron Johnston

Season’s Greetings, as again over two billion Christians begin to celebrate an obscure birth in the little town of Bethlehem. Why all the fuss over a poor Jewish baby boy born over two thousand years ago?
Historically, this baby grew up to be known as Jesus. Today, worldwide he is the most dominant person to have ever lived on the planet.
C.S. Lewis, an atheist turned Christian said, “Jesus was either the God he claimed to be in human flesh or he is the greatest imposter the world has ever seen.” Which is it?
The life of Jesus perfectly fulfills hundreds of predictions about a coming savior king.
One prophecy specifically pinpointed the actual date of his death at Passover AD 31. Then there were the miracles, lepers healed, the blind see and even the dead raised back to life.
Jesus himself, after his lynching on a cross, came back to life. Hundreds of people saw him alive after his death and Christians believe he is still living today!
The good news and the heart of the Christmas story is that the baby in the manger brings with him the favor of God for everyone willing to receive and accept him.
The birth, life and death of Jesus takes the love of God
and his affection for humans to a whole new level. Now every imperfect, hurting and rebel-lious human can experience the favor with God. This is the good news that Jesus brought that first Christmas.
Peace and joy, come with the person of Jesus real and practi-cal in your life. Consider allow-ing Him a place in your life.

The Tweedsmuir Ski Club AGM was held on Wednesday night. The financial situation of the club was reviewed and the financial state-ment will be posted on the Tweedsmuir Ski Club website. We have some money in the bank, but faced a significant expense fixing the Pisten Bulley groomer track this fall.
Other expenses are fuel for the ski hill, fuel for the groom-ing machines, parts and repairs on the rope tow and fees and licences paid to the BC Safety Authority which is required for the rope tow.
Last year we were in the process of resolving our long standing Park Use Permit, under which previously fell all of the Tweedsmuir Ski Club activities (ski
hill, overnight cabin, cross country trails). After many years of being associated with the Central Coast Regional District which was able to cover our liability insurance require-ment, that arrange-ment is changing. We are signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with BC Parks that describes the operations of the club and services we will provide and functions that we will carry out (fun days, cabin bookings, skiing etc.)
During the term of the MOU, BC Parks will be the owner of our facilities and directors and vol-unteers will each individually work under Volunteer Agreements to con-duct our standard activities. There is a significant advan-tage to this new process because we will not have an
expensive annual Park Use Permit fee, BC Parks will carry the liability for the operations provided the volunteers oper-ate under terms of the MOU and a new Tweedsmuir Ski Club Park Enhancement Fund will be set up with BC Parks and will be visible on the BC Parks website.
This is a segre-gated fund, only for Tweedsmuir Ski Club operations and Donations over $25 to this fund will get a BC Government charitable donation receipt. In addition soon you will be able to go online to BC Parks and donate to the ski club via online donation.
The directors are happy to get this issue resolved and thank the Central Coast Regional District for supporting us for over 20 years and appre-ciate the work local park Area Supervisor
Steven Hodgson did to get the MOU agreed to by BC Parks officials. The MOU will stay in place until either party cancels it.
Winter 2015/16 operations are under-way, with lots of groomed cross coun-try trails, and good turnouts by skiers. Cabin bookings are coming in very quick-ly and the ski hill will be made ready soon and will open when we get enough snow.
If you are inter-ested in booking the overnight cabin, all bookings are done online on the Tweedsmuir Ski Club web site.
At the meeting the directors and mem-bers discussed chang-ing the cabin book-ing/payment policy to require payment at time of booking and non-refundable bookings to avoid sit-uations where people are booking long in advance and chang-
ing their minds at the last minute when conditions change.
The TSC is entirely member supported and apart from occa-sional donations, we raise all of our own funds to run a lot of winter activities and a dedicated team of volunteers puts in a lot of time. The overnight cabin is our major source of rev-enue and with only about 20 prime week-ends in the winter we can’t afford to lose bookings with last minute cancellations.
When people book they will have to be sure and if there is a possibility they won’t come, they should wait to make their booking or consider it a donation to the club if they have to cancel. We hope the mem-bers will understand our decisions.
Looking forward to seeing everyone on the trail – track – sled – hill or at the cabin.

If Bella Coola organizers have their way, Williams Lake will be flooded with basketball players this spring.
Roughly 40 to 50 teams are expected to converge from March 13-18 when the Junior All Native Basketball Tournament arrives in the lakecity.
“We put in a bid against nine other
communities to host it and were chosen,” said one of the tour-nament’s directors, Roger Harris.
“There will be, with parents and manag-ers, about 22 people per team in Williams
Lake.”Harris, who lives
in Bella Coola, has been involved with the tournament for roughly the past 20 years as his children participated in the annual event.
Two divisions, junior boys and junior girls aged 14-17, will be contested at the tournament.
“Last year’s tourna-ment was in Nanaimo. The year before was Kamloops,” he said.
“Hopefully the tournament will bring some revenue to Williams Lake and it may open some eyes for other communities in the area.”
Harris and the organizing commit-
tee of the non-profit society putting on the tournament are look-ing for sponsorship.
If anyone is inter-ested in volunteering or helping out they can contact Harris at 250-305-7183.

On Friday November 13, the CCRD Board of Directors held their regular meeting. The next meeting will take place at 9am on Thursday, December 10 and as always, the pub-lic are welcome to attend.
The Central Coast Regional
District will be putting forward a request to the province to fund a governance study for the Central Coast to under-take a diagnostic study and analysis of governance and service delivery issues. For clarity, going forward all recent references to a “Restructuring Study” will now be
properly named “Governance Study” to better reflect the work being consid-ered and under-taken.
Additional high-lights included: a letter will be pro-vided to Active Communities Bella Coola to sup-port the widen-ing of Highway 20 between 4 Mile Reservation and the
Bella Coola town site.
Project Local brought local producers and retailers together on Thursday, November 5 to talk about how to make local food acces-sible to residents throughout the region. Thank you to all those who took the time to join us and contrib-
ute to the conversa-tion. Your input is greatly appreciated.
The Bella Coola Music Festival will be submitting a funding application to NDIT’s ‘Fabulous Festivals and Events’ program.
For anyone inter-ested in further information please visit the CCRD website, Facebook page, or stop by the
office to speak with a CCRD staff mem-ber.
DID YOU KNOW? Northern Development Initiative Trust requires a resolu-tions of support from the Regional District to be sub-mitted with all applications.
The next intake date for NDIT pro-grams is February
12, 2016. As the Central
Coast Regional District Board does not meet in January it is recommended that those seeking to apply to NDIT programming put forward a general project outline and request for support to the Central Coast Regional District no later than December 3, 2015.
