Walter Siemens, Social Credit candidate for the riding says the amount of time everyone has had to prepare for this election is “unusual”. But he does say it has enabled him to check out the opposition and he believes it will be an interesting race. ” “We would have liked to have had the election called by now, but I’m hoping that an announce- ment will be made by Thursday,” said Siemens, The candidate said he was cer- tain that current Rossland-Trail MLA Chris D’Arcy was planning to run as an independent. “But now, I'd say it’s going to be a two-way race,” he said.

Barcham was referring to the new Robson to Castlegar Bridge which the Ministry hopes will be open to traffic by Oct. 1993 at a total estimated cost of between $21.5 and $22.6 million. This cost includes the bridge structure, ministry’s preliminary, study. ivis shown to the public, at which time the ministry reportedly receiyed extensive feedback, suggestions and criticisms.

SHARLENE IMHOFF Sun Editor While most local residents are ig for the fast ing winter months, some folks are thinking’ about next summer and how Castlegar’s biggest [es- tival can once again be'a success. The voncern’ however, is that Sunfest desperately needs new faces to fill their.executive Posi- tions. If insufficient interest is shown, the festival could be in real danger. Craig Burton, who is current- ly one of the directors of Sun- fest, says the situation (lack of executive) i is very serious. “It's imperative that we get people involved with this festi- val, or we won't be-able to make a go of it this year.” Is Castlegar's biggest festivat in danger of folding? No one is quite sure but it seems a likely possibility. There are a number of reasons why Sunfest is now looking to fill spaces.
