The reach for the beach
Enough councillors had cold feet over a mo-tion by Phil Germuth to table it, but the question of getting waterfront land from Rio Tinto Alcan (RTA) will still be asked in the coming weeks.
Germuth put forward a motion that would have had the District of Kitimat asking RTA to donate “Alcan Beach and the Alcan Boat Launch to the District...as part of Kitimat’s 60th anniver-sary celebrations.”
“This has been Kitimat’s only no-cost public boat launch. It is the only sizeable sandy beach on the north end of the Douglas Channel,” Germuth told the council.
With the proposed developments for the west side of the channel he said acquiring the land is important to preserve the area for the public’s benefi t, and would not negatively impact the mod-ernization project.
He also added that there would be little fi -nancial impact because the land is already devel-oped.
The proposal, he thought, would be win-win for both sides.
Councillor Mary Murphy had a different idea, and suggested that as the District is in the middle of relationship building with RTA, it would be best to approach RTA directly through a series of meetings already scheduled between the two sides with this idea.
Rob Goffi net was also not prepared to move ahead on the motion. While not opposed to the idea, he didn’t want council to get locked into what could be perceived as a demand from RTA.
“I don’t want us locked into a demand before we actually see them face-to-face and broach sub-jects like this,” he said.
Murphy added after Goffi net that there are other areas they may want to discuss with RTA and she doesn’t want to lock discussion to the Hospital Beach land.
Corrine Scott stood by Germuth, emphasizing the motion was simply a request and that it would be a conversation starter the next time they met with RTA.
With so many questions, Scott moved to table the discussion until after they had met with RTA, a suggestion Germuth didn’t support.
He said there’s little point to making a motion after having the conversation.
“It’s stacking the deck and making a motion that we aready know the outcome of. I don’t be-lieve that’s a proper way to do things.”
His motion will have to wait to see another day after the tabling motion passed successfully.
He was the sole opponent to tabling.
Middle school now openCameron Orr
An open house at Mount Elizabeth Middle School gave parents, students, and alumni the chance to see some of the changes that will greet new and re-turning students this year.
The middle school will fi t entirely within the Mount Elizabeth Second-ary facility and will host students from grades 7-to-9.
Mount Elizabeth Secondary was a grade 8-to-12 school before the change.
As the start of the school year neared, principal Janet Meyer was not shy in expressing her excitement for the year.
“We were pleasantly suprised with the number of people who showed up,” she said of the open house on Aug. 30.
Along with food and refreshments, visitors were also treated to visits by school mascot Eddy the Eagle.
Meyer explained the middle school concept was fi rst pitched about two years ago in a community consul-
tation meeting. Parents were open to the idea, just
as long as work was done to ensure middle school students and secondary school students were separated as best as could be.
“The feedback we got from parents was that while they understood that we could not in this school keep the kids separate...they wanted us to do every-thing we could do to make that happen,” she said.
There were three phases to the school’s re-construction. First, the school’s science wing grew by two classrooms, from eight to 10, in order to accommodate most of the high school students.
Next they moved the school’s of-fi ces to make room for new classrooms for the middle school.
The new middle school means an addition of approximately 100 new stu-dents, said Meyer.
She also said there are additional teachers and that the entire school’s em-ployment is 37.28 full-time equivalents.
At the open house, Kitimat school board trustee Linda Campbell spoke highly of the facility as well, adding that the open house was a good way to get people to understand how the new con-cept works.
“I think this is a good concept for the community,” she said.
“When you look at the concept of middle school elsewhere you know it has worked for years and years and years in other school districts. Even in our school district in Terrace.”
Terrace has their own middle school now with Skeena Middle School, also marking their grand opening this year.

The market has spoken leaving Jack Oviatt to fi le for an amendment to the zoning for his pro-posed The Meadows active-adult living complex.
Initially the project was planned to be strata-controlled tri-plexes, but customers at an April open house on the project indicated they’d rather have freehold homes, and no one wanted the mid-dle units, said Oviatt.
So council now has received the application for the land, at the northeast corner of Lahakas Boulevard and Quatsino, and the plan has been referred to the advisory planning commission and the advisory housing committee.
A public hearing has also been scheduled for Oct. 15 regarding these proposals.
The change to the zoning, from R3-A Multi-family to R1-B Single Family, does go against the housing objectives in the current Offi cial Commu-
nity Plan, according to District administration.However Oviatt told council that there’s no
one out there willing to develop the land as it’s zoned, rendering it effectively useless until rezon-ing can allow different uses.
“I realize the new zoning does not meet the present requirements of the OCP but as many of you know I’ve been trying for several years to give the land to developers who want to develop it under the present zoning with no success,” he said.
The housing proposal does tie into needs ad-dressed by a recent housing assessment done for Kitimat, which found the housing stock “is no longer suitable for the aging population and lacks options for persons with special needs.”
The homes would be designed so that they are accessible to an aging population.

Housing project gets new focus
Playground pitched for CablecarCouncillor Phil Germuth is seeking the devel-
opment of a playground in the Cablecar area.He moved for administration to come back to
council with a report on the cost and possible lo-cation of a play area in that neighbourhood.
“A number of years ago there was talk of a play area for children in Cablecar. Cablecar has numerous families with young children and I would like council to revisit this idea,” he said.
He received unanimous support from coun-cil for the motion and Leisure Services Direction Martin Gould said they would look into the idea but did offer some possible roadblocks to that de-velopment.
“When Cablecar was originally designed the lots were designed in such a way that there is no current park space out there that is assigned for parkland,” he said.
The only park area that the District of Kiti-mat manages is Crown land, being the Snowfl ake Fairgrounds.
Gould said they could look to spaces at the end of some streets but most ideas would mean a long walk for area children.
For instance he said if they could put up a playground at the Fairgrounds, it would mean over a kilometre of travel for kids at the other end of Cablecar.
The people at Lapointe Engineering Ltd. say they are honoured to receive the best overall award as part of the Kitimat Business Recognition Program.
Improvements from the company include a new offi ce building, newly paved parking lot, new signs and a new front garden and picnic area. Their new offi ce building opened in November 2011 and holds the project management division.
“We are proud of our new facility and of be-ing able to show our continuation of growth as we continue to meet the economic growth de-mands in Northwest B.C.,” the company said in
a media release.Lapointe went up against 17 other business-
es, and won against runners up Envision Credit Union, Envision Insurance, A&W Restaurant, Pa-cifi c Northern Gas and the 323 block of the City Centre, which includes McElhanney, Comstock and Instaloans.
Meanwhile the Most Improved award went to the entire 400 block of Enterprise Avenue in the Service Centre. Those businesses include Cor’s Place, Fred’s Equipment, Kitimat Chop Suey Kitchen, Fortune Kitchen, Paul’s Place, Kitimat Hotel, Kitimat Mini Storage, Kitimat

4 Northern Sentinel, Wednesday, September 12, 2012
The trouble with distant, lengthy and contentious proj-ects like the Northern Gateway Pipeline (and so many others) is that you really just don’t know who to believe. That doesn’t mean that either proponents or opponents are openly lying to us all. I just know I’m very selec-tive about absorbing a lot of the hot air that has accompanied this project in recent years.
Living in Kitimat should qualify one for exercising at least a minimal interest in the subject in general, but I’m just not sure I’ll be around long enough to see any bricks, mortar or steel pipe construc-tion started on this controversial proposal, even if there was some eventual consensus on its feasibility across the North.
As I write this item, the Joint Review Process has just resumed in Edmonton to talk in more detail about the economic-impact elements of the proposal and one could be excused for believing that the review is inexorably moving forward to-wards some eventual decision – or rejec-tion – of the project.
I doubt that very much – especially with its “do the hokey pokey dance” na-ture and with its right foot in, left foot out history to date.
I’m not even sure if there’s any possi-ble middle ground left in this battlefi eld.
No one has been keeping score on media coverage numbers associated with the Northern Gateway since it was fi rst an-nounced, roughly around 2006.
Google it, and you’ll come up with something around 560,000 references – but that’s only a fraction of the 4.6-mil-lion items you’ll get if you just call up Enbridge – so clearly, the terms used in a Google search enquiry really matters.
Coincidentally a “Kinder Morgan” only enquiry is good for about 3.7 million responses, but when tied in with Trans-Mountain Pipeline, that number drops to 216,000 references. With the K-M Trans-Mountain Pipeline having operated for some 50 years, a lot longer than Google, one might have expected a larger number of responses – of course it does bound up to about 11.6 million if you just Google in a much more vague entry, like “oil exports from Vancouver.”
By the way, I don’t need any e-mails about the ways and means of Google searches. I do know the more elements to a request, or the more vague it is, the more the response numbers can accelerate. Also I know that these numbers are not really very meaningful, other than to demon-strate that researching and reading about the history of this seven year old project can simply get you totally immersed in a
quicksand of “he said, she said, they said.”
Indeed, the extreme verbiage level of Northern Gateway de-bate certainly gives any reader a feel for just how complicated and multi-faceted the pipeline-tankers subject matter is.
No doubt the pipeline is of as critically personal importance for
those people who see nothing but disaster in a Northern Gateway future as it is to those who see only dollars.
So I continue to watch it as it creeps along, receiving my regular e-mail alerts and reading, listening to and watching much more than is likely good for me about Enbridge and the Northern Gate-way.
At the same time, I am continuing to watch and wait for the exponential ramp-ing up to somewhere close to the same level as the Northern Gateway opposition by B.C.-based objectors to the Kinder Morgan Trans-Mountain Pipeline expan-sion and shipping plans.
So far I don’t really see that happen-ing despite last weekend’s First Nations canoe regatta on the Salish Sea (Burrard Inlet) to the K-M crude oil facility.
But, compared to the desperate and unremitting intensity of the Northern Gateway pipeline and Douglas Channel-tankers scrutiny and rhetoric, I have to ad-mit, to me, it’s still a pretty low-key envi-ronmental cause for the Lower Mainland and its millions of motorists.

COMMUNITY NEWSPAPERSA S S O C I A T I O N
We acknowledge the financial support of the Government of Canada through the Canada Periodical Fund of the Department of Canadian Heritage.
Easy fi xAt fi rst I agreed with everyone, which
makes it challenging to analyze a debate.Councillors spoke to length about a mo-
tion from Phil Germuth to request Rio Tinto Alcan donate Hospital Beach and the boat launch to the District of Kitimat, a good will gesture to coincide with Kitimat’s 60th an-niversary next year.
As far as the likelihood of it, I was skep-tical that RTA would even want to hand over prime waterfront land, and I also questioned if there would be challenges related to the fact the road to the beach isn’t public. (The publicly-owned Haisla Boulevard effectively ends at the railroad crossing.)
But hey, it doesn’t hurt to ask. And I’m prepared to be pleasantly surprised.
Once the motion was introduced, other councillors weren’t so sure it was a good idea.
Mary Murphy said that with council in the midst of relationship building with RTA, it wasn’t such as a good idea to pass the mo-tion before seeing them directly.
Rob Goffi net added that he felt the mo-tion would, in effect, lock the council into a demand as they move forward with further meetings with RTA.
As much as I agreed with Germuth, I could also see value in the counter-argu-ments. If council will be meeting with RTA to discuss the future and develop a relation-ship, it might be premature to start asking for specifi c things from them. Instead of re-lationship building it might, rather, turn into negotiations.
Negotiations are not relationship build-ing.
There’s an easy out, however. Council last week decided to simply table the motion until after the meeting.
But Corrine Scott was on the right track with her interpretation that the motion was simply a request — which it was, by the way. With that in mind, it shouldn’t have been hard to convince the council to just make a new motion, one that makes a generic for-ward-looking goal for land access.
“Move that the District of Kitimat discuss with Rio Tinto Alcan in future meetings the possibility of acquiring waterfront lands.”
There, simple. With that they would only be setting an agenda for discussion, rather than possibly setting the stage for negotiat-ing a specifi c land deal.

Responsibility needed with pets
Think the pipeline through
Dear SirIrresponsible dog owners are causing me great
irritation and inconvenience. I am no longer get-ting mail delivery to my home nor is anyone on Farrow Street (we now have to go to the post of-fi ce to pick up our mail) for that matter due to the ignorance of one dog owner. That person has seen fi t not to keep their dog properly secured for the safety of others. I have been informed by the post offi ce that they have been dealing with this person for over a year, that we’ve had three differ-ent letter carriers and that all have had diffi culty with this dog.
When I inquired at the District offi ce, I was told that none of the complaints made regarding this dog had been done so in a timely manner so there is nothing that they can do about it, and be-side no one had been bitten.
I love dogs and think they are great compan-ions for the right people but too many people who own dogs think they are an accessory and many are not responsible in their ownership. These are crea-tures that require love, caring, time and patients to properly train and care for.
We do have bylaws in our community regard-ing domestic animals. Dogs are supposed to be on a leash when being walked except in specially designated areas.
Many times I see the same people with their dogs roaming around freely while they are out for a walk. Or they have more than one dog but only one is on a leash. Or better yet they carry the leash and let the dog roam freely.
You may think that your dog wouldn’t harm anyone but there are many people who are afraid of dogs and have the right to walk our sidewalks without worrying about free roaming dogs and just what happens if your dog is having a bad day. Also, clean up after your dogs, people. The amount of dog feces that turns up on our sidewalks after the spring thaw is disgusting; there is a bylaw for that too.
Perhaps the city needs another bylaw enforce-ment offi cer to deal with these dog issues. Perhaps the citizens of Kitimat need to be reminded to re-port the offences when they see them happen. It’s easy to brush it off and say you are too busy or it wasn’t that important or you feel silly calling it in but when it happens closer to home you’ll be sorry that you didn’t.
Waiting my mail on Farrow Street, Laurel Alves
Dear SirI often wonder if B.C.’s northwestern folks
have thought about what will happen to their way of life if the pipeline in not built.
The northern B.C. Aboriginal leaders are in-cluded in my thoughts: they and their people will be drastically affected if Alberta and Saskatch-ewan oil is not shipped to China and other Asian markets.
One of the major changes that will affect northern B.C. is the very serious possibility of the BC Peace River district leaving B.C. for Alberta. Going way back to the 1950s and 60s, Premier W.A.C. Bennett understood how disap-pointed the Peace folks were. To keep the Peace in B.C., Bennett built the Pacifi c Great Eastern Railway (the PGE). The railway’s name was later changed to BC Rail then it was sold to CN Rail. The fall out over that sale may very well see BC Liberal cabinet ministers in jail.
There is a lot to think about. The Quebec-ers will likely vote to separate; Alberta and Sas-
katchewan may vote to secede from Canada and go it alone. If they did, the BC Peace country would soon join them; regardless of what hap-pens in B.C.
Our American cousins are in a bit of trouble these days, however, I am sure they would jump at the opportunity to pipe B.C. natural gas and AB and SK oil through Montana, Idaho to major ports on the Oregon coast. A major Oregon port would also see Oklahoma and Wyoming oil and gas shipped to Asia.
Another thing for northern B.C. folks to think about: Shifty Christie Clark is really stupid to argue with Alberta over pipeline profi ts.
Alberta pays annually $22 billion in transfer payments (TP). B.C. being a have not province, receives a nice fi nancial package from our Al-berta friends by way of the TP payments. B.C. residents, especially during hard times, remem-ber the $60 billion debt. You should not be biting the hand that feeds us.

Continued from page 4I've bleated about this more than once before
but it struck me even more strongly on a return trip to Terrace this week – that our pleasing views of the scenic Kitimat River are disappearing more rapidly than I would ever have imagined.
Overgrown river banks and even roadway right-of way on both sides of the highway makes a trip to Terrace more like a tunnel-driving experi-ence than ever before – it's becoming downright claustrophobic!
And I can't help but wonder what tourists think when they come off Highway 97 and pro-ceed down Highway 37 to Kitimat, where it's al-ready long past time for some serious “under the power lines” clearing too.
Even the phone lines to Kitimat have been lit-erally swallowed up by tree growth. Take a look
next time you drive out of town.Why do we permit this overgrowth to cheat
us all of our views of local mountains, creeks and the rivers scenery that is so much a part of our day-to-day enjoyment of our community and its approaches.
It's a manageable issue, surely. I can bet you, I'll never get used to it – nor will I fall for the old “pristine wilderness” excuses.
Not when I drive other roads in the north and see how wild and beautiful it is – and yet, in most other places my views of the mountains, forests, rivers and the environment as a whole is not being blacked out by overgrown scrub trees and weeds.
Road safety alone, I think, should dictate that roadside overgrowth gets much regularly cleared away than is the practice in our area.
Under Miscellaneous
The RCMP are investigating an act of vandalism in City Centre.
In the early hours of Aug. 27, lo-cal RCMP say that a large window at the west end of City Centre Mall was broken.
The window is very large an the culprit or culprits used large rocks to
break them.Also found nearby were some
traffi c signs that had been torn down.
A broken window report was also called into the police from the Service BC building.

Kitimat Modernization ProjectBuilding the future together
KMP must expand it’s reach for skilled tradespeople
The Kitimat Modernization Project is quickly ramping up to peak construction
period and the local pool of skilled tradespeople is near capacity.
KMP is working in coordination with participating unions to fill the need for skilled
trades. Tradespeople are being recruited through union branches from across the
province, the country, and the United States - in that order.
Temporary construction workers from the northwest U.S. could be on the ground
soon. With a project spend rate of over $3 million per day, we can’t delay.
Visit www.KMPjobs.com for more information.

Be opened to the Lord MP shut down in JRPMark 7:34, “And looking up to Heaven, Je-
sus sighed and said to him, “Be opened!!” And his ears were opened, his tongue was released and he spoke plainly.”
The above passage gives us the account of Je-sus healing a man who was born deaf and mute. This man had been born deaf and this led to him also being unable to speak.
You see, we learn to speak through a process called mimicry. Toddlers begin by saying “Gooo goo…Gaaa gaa.” But as they develop, they begin to imitate the words they hear their parents say-ing. This man lived completely shut off from the world of sound.
Imagine then, when Jesus came along one day and showed compassion on him. He took the deaf man to the side, pushed His fi ngers into the man’s ears, He spit on His hand and put it into the man’s mouth and said, “Be opened.”
Immediately the man’s ears were opened and he began to talk. The door to his prison hadn’t just been cracked open a bit; it had been swung wide open. Not only could he hear, but also he could understand and speak. He didn’t need to go through the process of learning language; he didn’t need the process of mimicry, he was given the ability right off the bat.
And this is what Jesus does for us too. Each one of us is locked in a prison of sin.
Maybe you feel trapped by a sin from the past, something you wish with all your heart that you could take back. You would give anything in the world to change what you did that day and the guilt and shame that you carry around feels like chains.
Or maybe you suffer from a habitual sin, and no matter how hard you try it keeps pulling you back down. Or perhaps you suffer from something someone else did to you that was so grievous that you cannot forgive them, and so you fi nd yourself trapped in a prison of hate and anger. Well, the good news is that Jesus came to set you free.
He let Himself be trapped and was willingly led to the cross so that you and I might be set free. He freely gave Himself up as our substitute be-cause it was the only way we could be forgiven and Heaven could be opened up for us. Because Jesus died and rose again, He has the authority to
Skeena - Bulkley Valley MP Nathan Cul-len is once again garner-ing national attention, this time for not being allowed to cross-exam-ine federal government offi cials who provided evidence to the Enbridge Northern Gateway Joint Review Panel.
Cullen had request-ed to question federal participants from Envi-ronment Canada on the new assessment thresh-olds versus the old
ones; question the DFO offi cials on the applica-tion of the Fisheries Act, net loss, habitat protec-tion and water cross-ings; question Transport Canada offi cials on the independence of the review and the regula-tions on diluted bitumen compared to conven-tional oil; and question Natural Resources Can-ada offi cials on project promotion abroad and carbon pricing implica-tions. The proposal was
to question each party for two hours each in Prince Rupert, totaling 10 hours of cross ex-amination.
However, the Jus-tice Department noted that all of those ques-tions were either too broad, were outside the mandate of the joint re-view panel, not related to evidence given by government participants or were unrelated to the mandates of the govern-ment departments.
say to you, “Be opened,” and through simple faith in Him, you will be forgiven and granted eternal life. No matter what your prison of sin is, Jesus can unlock the door. Truly, “If the Son sets you free, you are free indeed”
Amen.

TECUP
Council authorized sleeping accomoda-tion for a watchman at Leavitt Machinery on Enterprise Avenue. The Municipal Code allows for sleeping ac-
John Allsop, from last week’s front page story, wanted to emphasize he believes the vast majority of residents on his street support the walkway clearing and believes a new District study would support that belief.
Addendumcommodations as long as it can be shown such a position is essen-tial. Leavitt Machin-ery recently purchased Fred’s Equipment and as much of the inven-tory is stored outside it was argued that the po-sition was necessary.
Fred’s previously had a Temporary In-
dustrial Use Permit for a caretaker dwelling.
Council authorized two development per-mit applications that related to signs.
Suede Boutique and Hair Studio ap-plied for a permit for new signs outside their
sider on Oct. 1 an ap-plication for a Tempo-rary Commercial Use Permit for June Peck to operate a home busi-ness in the R1-A zone.
The Paws and Claws Pet Grooming business requires the TECUP because home businesses allowed in that zone are “Home
Business Address” while the pet-grooming business would be clas-sifi ed as a “Home Oc-cupation” business.
The owner’s prior TECUP expires on Sept. 29.
The application has also been referred to the Advisory Plan-ning Commission.
Briefs
12 Northern Sentinel, Wednesday, September 12, 2012
We all have an impact Over the years Kitimat has nurtured
rising stars in various disciplines from pol-itics to acting, from space travel to writing. Only a few of these notables remained in Kitimat. Families and careers have often pulled our people of the snow clear around the world.
I wonder how well known this home grown talent is? Many of us are no doubt aware of our famous resident carver Sam-my Robinson, also Hereditary Chief of the Haisla First Nations community, Kitamaat Vil-lage. Sammy’s work is renowned and proudly displayed in homes and showrooms here and overseas. Also, Haisla carver Lyle Wilson is the resident carver at UBC’s famed Museum of An-thropology. Another renowned Haisla star from the literary realms is Eden Robinson, author of award winning novels, Monkey Beach, and Tra-plines. Her sister, Carla Robinson, was a CBC Newsworld announcer.
From hockey, Bill Riley, who played for the Kitimat Eagles from 1971-1974, did play for the Washington Capitals. He was just the third black player in the NHL. Also, Brian Spencer, a hockey tough guy who did play in Kitimat, was originally drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs. More recent-ly, homegrown Mark Fitzpatrick, went on to play goal for the Florida Panthers and of course our current NHL hero is Rod Pelley playing for the Anaheim Ducks
Further in the realm of hockey, Kitimat can claim a local inventor in Fred Marsh. Besides being a long time District of Kitimat employee/thoughtful rink attendant, he invented and pat-ented Marsh Pegs, the stabilizer in hockey nets everywhere.
From the political arena, many will recall our home-town M.P. Mike Scott. Mike represented the Reform Party in our riding of Skeena, from 1993-2000. Mike went right through school in our community and he helped to raise his young daughter Tobi, here.
Recently in the news is premier Alison Red-ford of Alberta. Interestingly her place of birth was Kitimat. She was born here in March of 1965 and lived here attending elementary school until she was 12.
Perhaps Cormorant School has its own claim to fame, for despite being closed in 2002, its sta-tus lives on for its assistance in helping to mold the talent of actor Michael J. Fox. Long time Kiti-mat teacher Marie Gairdner steered Fox through kindergarten at the start of the famous actor’s Kitimat school days. Nechako school, helped to mold the talents of Space Shuttle astronaut, Bjarni Tryggvason, who reportedly lived on Teal Street. Bjarni, who is of Icelandic descent, said he really

got inspired to become an astronaut when in Oc-tober, 1957, the Soviet Sputnik was launched.
Despite our severe climate the community has been able to nuture and care for several Cen-tenarians, the oldest we think was Maria Christina Raposa who lived an incredible 104 years.
Other community members lasting for more than a century include Elsie Dowker, 101, Lorna Jay, 102, and there are two men both still with us at 101. They are Leon Kirstein and Hans Men-del. Hans currently resides in Smithers. No doubt there are other men and women from our commu-nity who have also known longevity.
Our community has been strong on issues of politics, human rights, consumer rights, and worker rights. We have been a lighthouse com-munity for unionism, nuturing renowned labour leaders and activists and even consumer rights organizers.
Interestingly, little Kitimat helped in develop-ing three BCTF union presidents. The fi rst was Harley Robertson, president in 1966-67. The second was Larry Kuehn, (1981-84) who taught in Kitimat in 1968. He found it a very differ-ent place from his work fi ghting racism in the southern USA. More recently, from 2002-2004, Neil Worboys, a long time Kitimat teacher was the leader of B.C’s 41,000 teachers. Of course Kitimat’s CAW/CASAW was well represented by the likes of Ross Slezak who went on to be the Union’s national vice-president. And back in the 70s our Klaus Mueller was also in a leadership role with a National Union somewhat related to CASAW.
Perhaps you can recall Sheila Charneski, longtime secretary at Nechako School. Did you know she went on to bigger things on her journey south to Vancouver? Her role became president of the B.C.’s Better Business Bureau, a post which she held for six years.
There are likely other Kitimat notables known to you. My apologies to the families of those that were missed.
Kitimat in the past and certainly in the future will continue to have a place on the world stage, but clearly the people who have lived here amongst us continue to make our world more complete. We all have an impact.

Back in seasonKathleen Jeffery
It must be the fall season; the Kitimat Concert Association has released their new concert schedule for the year.
There are eight performances sched-uled this year over the course of seven months.
Oct. 12 starts the year off with The So-journers, a gospel/R&B group.
Then just two weeks later, on Oct. 27, Mascall Dance will perform Homewerk.
It is a contem-porary dance perfor-mance that uses stories of home from around the world to inspire and entertain.
On Nov. 9 there will be the east coast sound of the funny and engaging David Myles.
Nov. 24 will bring you Madison Violet. This roots duo are the only Canadians to have won the John Lennon Songwriting contest.
That performance
will end the whirlwhind fi rst half of the season.
After a break over the holidays, perfor-mances will resume, starting on Feb. 10, with Ballet Jorgen’s performance of Swan Lake.
Cadence takes the stage on Mar. 1, de-scribed as “four men, four microphones, no instruments.”
Mar. 22 will mark the return of magicians Ted and Marion Out-erbridge, with Outer-bridge — Clockwork Mysteries.

SubmittedArne Bryan, the
founder of Prayer Canada, unexpectedly arrived in Kitimat on June 4 with his wife Kathie.
At noon on the Tuesday the pair came to the fi re hall for the weekly prayer meeting whic is held on the sec-ond fl oor.
The group was un-sure of how well Arne, who is in his 90s, could get up the stairs so they called in the fi refi ghters for the rescue.
The fi re crews were delighted to try out their brand new stair chair lift which successfully brought Arne up and down the stairs.
Called by God, Arne began Prayer Canada 35 years ago and has ever since been travelling the country, and initiating groups to establish prayer for government leaders.

Taking up Ironman challengeTwo athletes from the Northwest

Fred Lambright, 42 from Ter-race and Al Marleau, 53, from Kiti-mat competed at the 30th anniver-sary of IMC.
Both athletes placed well. Lam-bright placed 256th overall with a time of 10:49:10 and Marleau 381st overall with a time of 11:12:55.
Lambright had a phenomenal time of fi ve hours and six minutes for the 180km bike portion of the Ironman, fi nishing with the 47th fast-est time out of 2,700 competitors.
Marleau also had a great time on the 42.2 marathon portion of the event with a time of three hours 42 minutes, fi nishing 123rd fastest out of 2,700 competitors.
Seniors pack in the medalsZone 10 senior athlete fl ying
back from the BC Seniors Games in Burnaby must have had a heck of a time getting through those metal de-tectors.
From the 86 athletes who went from our region, they brought back 73 medals; 32 gold, 18 silver and 23 bronze.
This year’s event also marked the 25th anniversary of the Games and of several Zone 10 athletes in the organization. Betty Nordstrom, Mary Arneson, Dorothy Cheyne and Bob Goodvin have been members for 25 years while Maxine Small-wood has competed in 25 consecu-tive games.
Zone 10 athletes did well in ar-chery with two golds and three sil-vers.
In Cribbage, they earned four golds, two silvers and two bronzes.
The carpet bowling team got four bronze medals, the fl oor curling B team took a bronze, the golf team took fi ve golds and two silvers, and in horseshoes there were four golds and one silver.
Swimmers took three golds, two silvers and three bronzes and there were four golds in whist and the A team for fi ve-pin bowling took a gold plus three individual gold medals.
Six members from this Zone also paddled for other teams in the Dragon Boat racing, while Zone 10 organizers say it’s very possible to get a boat for the 2013 Seniors Games in Kamloops.
Next year’s games will run Aug. 20 to 24th.
