Black holding town hall in Prince Rupert to discuss proposed oil refi nery in KitimatBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - David Black, president of Kitimat Clean Ltd., will be in Prince Rupert on Thursday evening to hear from people in the commu-nity about plans for a $13 bil-lion oil refi nery in the Kitimat area.

Black, who also owns Black Press which publishes this news-paper and the Prince Rupert Northern View, will be speaking at the Lester Centre of the Arts at seven p.m. on Thursday, October 11 in a very casual town hall for-

mat. “I just want to

talk about the re-fi nery concept and adjoining pipeline, answer questions and solicit opin-ion,” said Black, who will be speak-ing at the 2012 Northern Ports Symposium and meeting with First Nations leaders in the Prince Rupert area during his visit.

“This all goes back to mak-

ing sure we have a complete look at the project. It was the point of the polling we did previously as well.”

A province-wide phone survey con-ducted during Septem-ber found 78 per cent of respondents were aware of the proposal to build a large refi n-ery at Kitimat to pro-cess Alberta heavy crude oil. Provincial-

ly, 72 per cent either favoured or were “somewhat support-

ive” of the proposed $13-billion refi nery between Terrace and Kitimat.

“It’s pretty dramatic, it’s a strong endorsement in a prov-ince where you see a 60/40 split so I’m pretty pleased with that,” said Black.

According to Black, those numbers are refl ective of what he is hearing in talking to people about the project.

“I think the general person in BC is for this proposal because of the jobs that are involved and because it takes the risk of a bi-tumen spill out of the equation,” he said.

PoliceprobeKitimatshootingBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - The police are currently investigat-ing a shooting of a home on Fulmar Street near midnight on Sept. 23.

A house was cor-doned off with police tape as well as the sec-tion of the street imme-diately in front.

Staff sergeant Steve Corp of the Kitimat RCMP detachment said that no one was injured in the attack and that po-lice do not believe the incident was random.

Suspects in the case are thought to have fl ed in two separate vans, which may have been gold or silver in colour.

Bold energy planBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - Author and lawyer Calvin Helin was in Prince Rupert on Sept. 26 to announce a new company aimed at giving First Nations more control in proposed energy projects.

Seaking at the Gathering of Our Nations con-ference, Helin outlined the formation of Eagle Spir-it Energy Holdings Ltd., an Aboriginal-owned and controlled company whose purpose is to facilitate First Nations energy projects within their territories.

“Everything that happens in our territory we should own and operate in partnership with non-Ab-original companies... It is time for us to engage in this, it is time for us to be proactive instead of reac-tive,” he said, noting that much of the BC economy is now reliant on the energy sector.

“The corporations need to change their mindset. They take a cookie-cutter approach working with us, and I say cookie cutters are for cookies, not people.”

To further drive home the important role Aborig-inal people can and should play in the development of energy projects, Helin is proposing the creation of a First Nations Energy Corridor that covers tradition-al territories in British Columbia and Alberta.

“We should be real partners in all of these proj-ects. The fact that we have been here for so long needs to be recognized in agreements at all levels,” he said, adding that First Nations would need real consultation, a signifi cant equity ownership stake in projects, environmental input, monitoring capability and ownership equity in companies constructing and servicing the projects.

“I think once First Nations become real players it will be a benefi t to everyone because it creates stability.”More specifi cally, the Eagle Spirit Energy Holdings will facilitate things such as business negotiation and consultation related to energy projects, ownership stakes in the projects, funding, business development and training and safety for community members.

Helin has secured a fi nancial partnership with Aquilini Investments, a group that owns such notable entities as the Vancouver Canucks. “With Aquilini as fi nancial partners, we can fi nance anything,” he said.

Ferry commission releases decision on cap for increaseContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The Brit-ish Columbia Ferry Commission, the independent regulator of Brit-ish Columbia Ferry Services Inc. (BC Ferries), has released details on its fi nal price cap decision for the remaining three years of the third performance term for BC Ferries. The fi nal decision allows for annual increases in the price cap for all route groups as follows:1. April 1, 2013 - 4.1 per cent;2. April 1, 2014 - 4.0 per cent; and3. April 1, 2015 - 3.9 per cent. The price cap, which is set and enforced by the commission on BC Ferries’ fares, determines the maximum permitted weight-ed average fares for all route groups. The commission’s fi nal price cap decision refl ects the re-cent amendments to the Coast-

al Ferry Act and the most recent amendments to the Coastal Fer-ry Services Contract between BC Ferries and the provincial government. The price cap also incorporates effi ciency targets and provides for service level adjustments still to be determined through a pub-lic consultation process led by the Province. The effi ciency target has been set at $54.2 million over four years. Service level adjust-ments are expected to contribute $30 million to keeping the price cap lower than would otherwise be the case. The commission has also re-leased two additional related or-ders which establish the terms and conditions for use of fuel price deferral accounts by BC Ferries and establishes the threshold for major capital expenditures which will fall under the commissioner’s purview. Fuel deferral accounts allow for fare stability and predictabil-

ity through the use of surcharges and rebates and will ensure fair-ness and equity for ferry users and greater transparency and ac-countability. Fuel procurement costs are the second largest ex-penditure for BC Ferries and the high degree of market volatility in recent years represents a sig-nifi cant risk to ongoing fi nancial sustainability of the company. BC Ferries is required to sub-mit a plan for use of alternate fu-els, and a plan for reducing fuel consumption, both due 30 days after the publication of these orders. The commissioner has set the threshold for major capital expen-diture approval by the commis-sion at $30 million for vessels and terminals, and at $5 million for specifi ed upgrades to information technology systems. Moreover, the commission requires BC Fer-ries to annually submit a rolling fi ve-year board-approved capital plan.

Morality and money debated By Staff WriterTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - Religious leaders gathered at Northwest Community College last week to talk about morality amidst economic crises.

It was organized by Vancouver resident Rizwan Peerzada with the Ahmadiyya Mus-lim Community’s B.C. Branch.

The World Religions Conference is part of a work that intends to edu-cate the world about Is-lam and promotes under-standing between people of different religions and to bring harmony to people by bringing them closer to God.

On Sept. 23, rep-resentatives from four religions – Sikh-ism, the Islamic faith, Christianity and Bud-dhism – gathered to share perspectives on the economy’s ups and downs and how to han-dle one’s personal mon-ey, morally, throughout our lives.

From the Buddhist perspective, which is a spiritual tradition with Asian roots dating back roughly 2,500 years, Brian Ruke spoke.

The former monk and now Buddhist teacher talked about at-tachment to money as a cause of suffering — pointing to the second Buddhist noble truth which states the origin of suffering is attach-ment to transient things, like any economy which is prone to bouts of ups and downs.

The next to speak was Pastor Blake Holen-stein.

Holenstein ministers at Terrace’s Pentecostal Assembly.

He spoke from the perspective of the Chris-tian faith – a monothe-istic faith that sets itself apart from others that believe in one god by paying special attention to the birth and resurrec-tion of Jesus Christ, be-lieving he is the son of God and the true saviour of man.

“Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. Jesus Christ is su-preme over the world and the economy, every-thing is His, and He is the fulfi lment of the law (morality),” said Holen-stein.

“The good news for followers of Jesus Christ is that they get him and

that He is enough no matter what comes! There is no contentment apart from Jesus Christ, for only He will satisfy.”

The speaker to fol-low was Muhammad Afzal Mirza.

He talked about the morality of money from the perspective of Islam, another monotheistic re-ligion.

Mirza gave an exam-ple of a man, who looked another in his eyes, ig-noring the other’s suffer-ing and need for shelter.

Instead, this man chose to enslave the oth-er by contract, lending him money for his home under strict require-ments to pay more than was lent within a specif-ic time frame.

And if the other man could not pay, the fi rst would then seize every-thing he owned with lit-tle regard for the human impact of such actions.

Chances are, he said, one would not like the fi rst man very much.

Yet, this is what the banks do.

This anecdote was an example of how some contemporary models of thinking contradict ways humans ought to moral-ly care for one another.

Terrace local Davin-der Singh Sangha spoke from the perspective of the Sikh religion, also a monotheistic religion.

He spoke about the pursuit of money, noting the difference between its pursuit and greed.

Money is a tool to be used, he said, noting the virtue in understanding the difference between stepping on others to at-tain or retain it, and pur-suing one’s goals and using it as a tool to help others.

The evening’s over-all tone was respectful, engaging, and evoked contemplation through the wisdom of spiritual teachings.

The conference in Terrace was just one stop on the road for

AFFNO holds murder mystery fundraiserBy Martina Perry THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - To ensure L’Association des Francophones et Fran-cophiles du Nord-Ouest (AFFNO) can break even fi nancially each year, the association holds an annual Murder Mystery fundraiser. This year the Last Kiss-

with Murder was held on Sept. 29.Set in the 1960’s, sus-pects (Clark William Spence, Treena Decker, Noah Ferland, Stephen Huddlestone, George T. Baker, Larissa Goruk, Heather McLeod and Celena Cochrane-Olsen) try to discover who poi-soned and killed a beau-tiful cheerleader (played

by James Mc-Nish). Approximate-ly 80 people at-tended the event at the Crest Ho-tel, which raised an estimated $1,500 for AFF-NO’s opera-tions. AFFNO is a non-profi t soci-ety that repre-sents thousands of members be-tween Prince Rupert and Smithers.

Regional district won’t waive fees for clean upBy Martina Perry THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District turned down a request to waive tipping fees School Dis-trict 50 will have to pay to remove burnt debris that remain from a fi re that de-stroyed Queen Charlotte City’s teen centre. The centre was located on S.D. 50’s property and

was run by a society with no funding and little mon-ey. “This was a very suc-cessful volunteer-run pro-gram with no money from anybody,” Carol Kulesha, mayor of Queen Charlotte City, said at last month’s regional district meeting. The society responsible for running the centre did not have funds to insure the old building, so the li-ability falls on the school

district. Members of the board asked to decrease or elim-inate fees associated in bringing the debris to the dump, however the board rejected the request, as they worried it would open the door to more commu-nity groups asking for fee weaving in the future. “As much as I feel for what happened, I couldn’t support doing this sim-ply because it opens up a

whole can of worms and a slippery slop,” Anna Ash-ley, board member for Prince Rupert, said. The fi re happened on Sunday, Sept. 9 with vol-unteer fi refi ghters re-sponding to the incident at approximately 8:30 p.m. Queen Charlotte RCMP are still investigating the fi re. “There were people seen in the area before the fi re occurred, so we are try-

ing to follow up with those people,” said Constable Derrick Gladdish from Queen Charlotte City RCMP. “It’s an ongoing inves-tigation. We’re trying to determine if it was acci-dental. It does seem suspi-cious.” The centre was badly burnt inside, however the shell of it was still stand-ing. The society has received

funding for a new centre at another site but construc-tion won’t be complete for quite some time. “We were hoping this teen centre would stay to-gether for the year that it will take us to build a new one. Unfortunately it has gone up in smoke,” Kule-sha said.

Canfi sco numbers are down but not outBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - The City of Prince Rupert ear-lier this month raised con-cerns about the fi shing season based on the low water usage of the Cana-dian Fishing Company plant and Rob Morley, the vie-president of produc-tion and corporate devel-opment for Canfi sco, says those concerns weren’t necessarily unfounded. “I would say the season was a little disappointing...We probably didn’t pro-cess as much fi sh as last year, but the season isn’t quite over yet,” he said, noting that there remains the possibility of an open-ing off the waters of Haida Gwaii and some ground-fi sh processing to be done as a result of Ocean Fish and Canfi sco consolidat-ing operations last sum-

mer . “We didn’t get as many Pink Salmon in the north as we had last year.” According to Joy Thorkelson of the Unit-ed Fishermen and Allied Worker’s Union, most in the industry were feeling good about the season un-til the end of July, when the hours started going down instead of up. The result of the disappointing season will have a signifi -cant impact on some, she said. “It has defi nitely impact-ed the number of hours they have had. People who had fi nally crawled onto EI in the last few years will be off it again this year,” said Thorkelson in regards to the number of hours need-ed to qualify for EI. “We’re hoping they fi nd enough pollock to get into pollock processing, which is something they had

agreed to do...We’re hop-ing they can fi nd 600,000 pounds of pollock.” As well, Thorkelson said there are rumours Can-fi sco is looking to move the canning of some chum from Johnstone Strait to Prince Rupert.

For his part, Morley said it is important to note that the lower processing lev-els this year don’t neces-sarily equate to any type of downturn in the fi shery or a reduction in process-ing planned for the north coast.

“Even years are always lower. With the cycle of the Pink Salmon, the high-er numbers are in the odd years so we are hopeful that next year will be bet-ter,” he said. “This is a refl ection on the number of fi sh avail-able in the north this year.”

Kitimat aims to improve Cablecar road safety

By Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - Kitimat council wants to see safety improvements to the entrance to Cablecar from Highway 37S.

Councillor Mary Murphy moved for the staff to review the Cablecar entrance and for council to lobby the government to change the entrance to allow for an entrance and exit merge lane to improve traffi c fl ow and address safety concerns.

Murphy recalled a fatal accident from years ago at that inter-section which led to a turning lane and a light to be installed.

She said the way it’s still set up is that cars pulling onto the highway are slowing down traffi c and causing a safety problem.

Murphy had tried to get the speed limit reduced from the

snowfl ake sign onwards but was unsuccessful in that past at-tempt.

Acting mayor Corinne Scott agreed there’s a hazard in that location and with the speed limit in place people have to signal way in advance to avoid traffi c congestion in the absence of a slow down turning lane.

Mario Feldhoff supported the motion and also suggest that the administration dust off old council motions that relate to this issue as the intersection has been a centre for discussion in the past.

Director of Engineering Tim Gleig said that they have sent letters in the past to the Ministry of Transportation and added that it’s typically a technical matter on when new lanes are put in, based on the amount of traffi c.

Terrace Sportchek general manager Jennifer Lewis cuts the ribbon Sept. 27 to offi cially mark the opening of the company’s store at the Skeena Mall in Terrace.

SportChek opens in TerraceBy Staff WriterTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - A rib-bon cutting Sept. 27 marked the opening of SportChek in Terrace, BC.

A crowd had gath-ered outside leading to-ward the 9 am opening while general manager Jennifer Lewis gave staff members a last minute briefi ng.

The store is locat-ed at the Skeena Mall which is undergoing an estimated $10 million in renovations.

The store is just

under 13,000 square feet in size and is, for the moment, the only SportChek in northwest-ern BC and just the sec-ond in northern BC.

Approximately 35 full and part time peo-ple are employed at the store.

SportChek is part of the Forzani Group which was bought by Canadian Tire last year.

Since then plans have been announced to revamp and expand the SportChek banner across Canada.

Next up for the Skee-na Mall is the opening of

a Dollarama store of ap-proximately the same size as SportChek and a 28,000 square Winners follows soon after.

Renovations on the Skeena Mall include a new facade outside and extensive work done on the roof of the structure.

New signs are also going up outside of the mall.

There’s new tile on the fl oor of the common area within the mall and much work on walls and the interior to accommo-date new tenants and ex-isting retailers.

Work began in ear-

nest this spring after the Bosa Group of Vancou-ver bought the mall late last year.

Job Match construction program to get people off welfareBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RUPERT - A provincial program to take people off of wel-fare and place them in northern con-struction jobs will be focusing on Kitimat and Prince Rupert in the northwest and on Dawson Creek, Fort Nelson and Fort St. John in the northeast. The plan, described as a pilot one for now, is to fi nd and train 250 peo-ple overall with the expectation that at least 60 per cent of the recruits be

on social assistance. The BC Construction Associa-tion, which represents approxi-mately 2,000 companies, has been hired to do the training thanks to a $2.92 million budget, explains jobs ministry offi cial Andy Watson in an email. “Depending on the success of the pilot, it is hoped this initiative can be expanded to other communities in need starting sometime in the new year,” wrote Watson in explain-ing why Terrace was skipped.There’s going to be a formal evalua-

tion of the pilot program in Novem-ber. The program, called Job Match, was heavily criticized when fi rst proposed in the spring as being an attempt by the province to place southern welfare recipients in north-ern jobs. Called Welfare Air by its de-tractors, the provincial NDP said provincial programs should fi rst concentrate on training northern residents for northern jobs. The pilot program’s emphasis is on placing northern residents fi rst in

northern jobs. “Only in the event that a job open-ing cannot be fi lled by an individual in northern B.C. would relocation from another part of the province be considered,” Watson wrote. “The level of support that will be provided to an individual relocating to fi ll a job opening will be negoti-ated on a case-by-case basis. One of the objectives of this pilot initiative is to determine what people need, and what a reasonable level of sup-port to provide is.” Two weeks ago the provincial gov-

ernment announced it would spend $17 million on skills training. Approximately $5 million of that is to come to northern post sec-ondary school institutions but how much will end up at Northwest Community College Monthly jobless fi gures so far this year place the rate in the northwest in the 12 per cent range, nearly dou-ble the provincial average. That’s despite large industrial projects now already underway in the region and more being planned.

Calvin Helin release third bookBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

PRINCE RU-PERT - Lax Kw’alaams’ Cal-vin Helin gar-nered internation-al praise for his fi rst two books, Dances With De-pendency and The Economic Depen-dency Trap, and on September 25 he released his third book enti-tled The Empow-erment Mindset. Helin’s latest work has already been selected to be a featured book at Barnes and Noble and is

receiving some high praise. “What the book is really about is how anybody, once they have the

knowledge of how they got to where they are, can pur-posely move forward and become whatever they want,” Helin told delegates at the Gath-ering of Our Nations conference. “If a little kid from Lax Kw’alaams can become a world re-nown writer, a law-yer, a bad fi sherman and a horrible bas-ketball player, then

anyone can become anything,” he joked. The book carries on the theme

of self reliance that were found in the fi rst two acclaimed books. In explaining his reasoning for writ-ing the books, Helin played a vid-eo interview of a woman named Violet Abigosis who was living on the streets of Vancouver’s east side who had lost her husband to pneumonia and battling with ad-dictions crack and marijuana. “This is my Aboriginal reason for writing these books. We have to do something different,” he said. “It is time to start taking the real power as the real Aboriginal na-tions.” More information on the book, including a video preview and sample chapters, can be found online at www.calvinhelin.com/books

“It is time to start tak-ing the real power as the real Aboriginal nations.”

It’s more than a pipeline. It’s a path to a stronger economy.

In recent months, there’s been plenty of economic discussion surrounding our Gateway Project. As a British Columbian, you want to know: What’s in it for B.C.? From one British Columbian to another, I feel strongly that you’ve got every right to know. And a recent independent report makes it abundantly clear that Gateway will provide signifi cant economic benefi ts for our province.

The Canadian Energy Research Institute is an independent, not-for-profi t research establishment, and it recently released a report on the economic impact of exporting our oil/resources to countries in Asia. In pretty clear terms, CERI’s calculations suggest that we will be Canada’s biggest benefi ciary of the Northern Gateway pipeline through the next 25 years — in key categories such as gross domestic product (GDP) impact, employment impact, employee compensation, and tax revenue generation.

According to the report, over the next quarter-century, construction and operation of the Northern Gateway pipeline itself will create an additional $8.9 billion in GDP

to the Canadian economy — with $4.7 billion of that amount, or 53 per cent, heading to B.C.

Our province also stands to benefi t the most in terms of employment impact, since 70,000 person-years of construction and operations employment will be created in British Columbia, compared to 37,000 for Alberta and 8,000 in Ontario. In addition, we would see 55 per cent of the total $5.1 billion in Canada-wide Northern Gateway employee compensation, or just under $2.9 billion.

I’m proud of the economic value that Gateway will bring to Canada. I believe our province should receive its fair share. And as these reputable numbers clearly demonstrate, we will.

TERRACE - Two local economic development agencies have agreed to work more closely to-gether to avoid duplica-tion of effort and to as-sist each other.

A memorandum of understanding signed Sept. 28 between the Kit-imat-Terrace Industrial Development Society (KTIDS) – Northwest and the Skeena-Nass Centre for Innovation in Resource Economics Society (SNCIRE) paves the way for each to com-plement each other.

KTIDS – Northwest encourages development while SNCIRE empha-sizes research and inno-vation in resource use.

“This is a way for cooperation and col-laboration – to have two regional groups work together who have [a] similar vision and ideas,” said KTIDS – Northwest executive director Alex Pietralla.

“We’ll fi nd ways to work together so we don’t do the same things or miss gaps that are out there.”

SNCIRE executive director Rick Brouwer said the memorandum will also help companies and agencies understand how each works.

“We have mandates that are convergent and complementary but we don’t want to be confus-ing,” he added.

Both Pietralla and Brouwer said their agen-cies have been advocat-ing for more regional cooperation and collab-oration in light of the number of industrial projects now underway or about to start.

“We decided we needed to show some of that collaboration that needs to be happening,” said Brouwer.

Also expected to sign on soon is the Northwest Science and Innovation Society.

“The more we can do this, the better it will be,” Brouwer said.

KTIDS-Northwest recently sponsored an appearance by UNBC geography professor Greg Halseth on the northeast experience with gas and oil devel-opment and what les-sons from that economic boom might be applied to the now being faced in the northwest.

Staffers from SN-CIRE helped with that event held at Northwest Community College.

Maddy Amado arrives fi rst in the female category for the Terry Fox Run.

Students run for Terry Fox By ContributedTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

KITIMAT - While it’s not yet known how much was raised at Mount Elizabeth Middle Secondary School – fundraising was still ongo-ing at deadline – students really put in the effort to support fundraising for cancer research.

MEMSS joined schools all across Kitimat to do the annual Ter-ry Fox Run. The high schoolers also pitched in with hot dog sales and car washes to help bring up the total.

Out of the runners in the mid-dle school, the top placed male run-ners were Tayden Fowler-McNab at 22:42; Ethan Morgas with 23:03 and Hayden Dobbin at 23:06

In the female division, the top runners were Kleanza Cathers at 26 minutes; Maddy Hoffman at 27:42 and Sarah Chaulk at 28:3.

With the male secondary stu-dent runners, the results were Cam Chanin with 19:35; Guillaume Sauve at 19:50; and Mr. Dahler at 20.02.

In the female category, Mad-dy Amado was in fi rst with 26:03; Sarah Khan followed with 28:38; and Kaitlyn Enmark in third with 28:57.

Teams slug it out at Challenge Cup By Contributed THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - The Smithers Steel-heads are this years’ Northern Challenge Cup winners after tak-ing the Terrace River Kings 7 - 2 in the fi nal of the pre-season tour-nament. The Kitimat Ice Demons, last year’s Challenge Cup winners, won the consolation game against the Prince Rupert Rampage 7 - 5.

The River Kings suffered from too many penalties, both in their fi rst game against the Ice Demons,

a close 6-5, and in the fi nal, but new players showed a lot of prom-ise and goaltending was solid for the most part.

The fi nal game was tied 2-2 go-ing into the third period before the Steelheads, gaining strength on the power play, charged ahead with fi ve unanswered goals.

Smithers, last years’ CIHL champions and Coy Cup winners, trounced the Rampage on Friday night 11-1.

“We played the two best teams in the league,” Jonathan Hunt, Ru-

pert Rampage head coach and play-er said.

“The young guys had a lot jit-ters for the fi rst game. We’re a new, fresh team, and we didn’t have a lot of ice time,” Hunt said, mention-ing that there are only a few players from last year’s roster.

The Prince Rupert team has only had two on-ice practices in Kitimat this season so far due to the lack of ice making machine at the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre.

The Ice Demons had a few new players as well, using new goalten-

ders in both games, with young Ty-son Craven earning the win Satur-day night, while Dan Pellen took the loss Friday. For both players it was their fi rst exposure to CIHL level hockey.

The season offi cially opens this weekend with the Rampage meet-ing Kitimat on Demon turf, Terrace hosting the Houston Luckies and Smithers hosting Omenica, all the night of Saturday, Oct. 6.

If the battles are anything like last weekend, it’s going to be an in-teresting season.

Skeena girls go undefeated at Prince George tourny...

SUBMITTED PHOTO / THE NORTHERN CONNECTOR

TERRACE - The Jr. B Girls Volleyball Kodiac Classic was held over the Sept 28-29 weekend in Prince George at Prince George Secondary School and Terrace’s Skeena Middle School took the top spot, going undefeated and not losing a single set for the entire tournament, which included nine teams from the northwest. Coach Frank Marrelli was impressed with the teams’ self-confi dence and “never quit attitude.” The girls had to battle back in a number of situations to secure their victory, especially in the nail-biting fi nal against College Heights where they won the fi rst set 25 - 23 and the second 28 - 26. All Stars went to Skeena’s Chelsey Loset and Anke De Wit while Carly Davies took the tournament MVP award.
