All Native Tournament

Lots of people around town

Parking lot full on Monday afternoon

 

New experiment – not allowing ‘ringers’ this year --- have to live in the Village, or be from there etc

Watwicki at Muskeg News has most ‘up to date’ ANBT info online

 

 

Quite noticeable downtown

Stores appear busy --- some say the tournament ‘worth’ >6M$ to local economy

 

I saw half dozen 11-13 year old girls walking downtown –each carrying her own basketball etc

 

 

Another ‘sign of the season

CityWest crews going around taking down the ‘Holiday’ wreaths etc as Chinese New Year has come and gone

 

Monday brought clear and colder weather with snow on the mountains

As always the declining sun made for some spectacular imagery

 

 

Presumably Lucy Oldendorff for logs --- See Vessels in Harbour PDF

Emerald Star looks like it is ‘parked’ just off the mall parking lot --- here for wheat

Awfully long ship – did not get the name – perhaps Ikan Acupulco

 

Was the Cops on Bikes effective this summer?

It was ‘great fun’ and good for Tourism etc --- but was there less vandalism? --- No need to tell us mere Citizens --- but not RCMP fault --- they send in a report to Council every few weeks

 

 

I hear a restaurant was ‘called for’ by City – made sense when Cruise ship visiting – but may be redundant without

Another ‘Rethink’ needed --- CN station & ‘waterfront’

Keeping Kwinitsa open for Tourist in evenings might not make sense once the cruise ship no longer visits ---- I am told the repairs at CN station are moving along --- but proponents feel ‘let down’ by City

 

 

 

 

How safe is our drinking water? --- I have pointed out to staff numerous times --- but nothing happens --- perhaps needs more asphalt--- on street at corner 2nd W and Atlin

 

The strike is presumably over --- picket line gone – and the space is ‘ready’ to be leased out to a new tenant
