CRHL jam at the the Teachers save programs! Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR A'dadétod allows bendiios in this district.” The vote was held Tuesday night at the conclusion of the ang 1 ion’s general ting to drive buses on ips was made Tuesday night for the students’ sake, said the president of the Castlegar and District Teach at Ki school. SHSS student association president Sonoko Kambara “ ‘d Junior dary “Our sole consideration in rescinding the motion was the interest of the students and a desire to see a complete extracurricular program operate in school district No. 9,” said Bill Gorkoff. By a vote of 33-14 the CDTA decided to rescind a seven- month-old motion that forbade teachers from driving buses for extracurricular trips on weekends. “We teach, we volunteer to coach and we don’t want to drive buses. But as group we just weren’t prepared to shut down extracurricular activities said the stud are d. “That’s great! That’s what we were hoping for,” said Kambara. “We were getting worried there for a minute.” Coaches at Stanley Humphries secondary school were calling it a victory for their programs and the students. “The CDTA showed its unqualified support for extracurricular activities in our district,” said SHSS school’s athletic director Doug Hickey. “And that’s very, very important because we are teachers and we're just trying to do a job for kids,” Both Gorkoff and Hickey said the decision will likely put sf the CDTA in some hot water with the the bus drivers’ union. “I'm sure CUPE’s going to be very upset with us and that’s something we're going to have to deal with,” said Hickey. The Canadian Union of Public Employees was hoping the motion, which effectively relegated all the bus driving in the district to its members, would be upheld. But CUPE local President Brenda Binnie said-she-doesn’t blame the teachers. She said it’s the federal government's and local school board’s responsibility to put up the money for qualified bus drivers. Still, the teachers could have been more supportive, said Binnie.

Roberts got Driving out in Nelson Ed Mills SPORTS EDITOR Teachers in the Nelson School District haven’t driven buses for extracurricular ac- tivities for three years now and want to keep it that way, said a Nelson high school vice principal. ‘IT think if you asked our coaches right now, they would refuse to drive (the buses),” said L.V. Rogers vice principal Brian De Biasio. “It’s crazy that if a person teaches all day then hops on the bus with 20 kids, drives for four hours through the snow, coaches the game then has to come back four hours through the snow. It’s stupid,” he said. The Castlegar and District Teachers’ Association voted Tuesday to allow its teachers to drive buses for extracurric- ular activities. De Biasio said Nelson teachers would rather not drive buses even though the school’s sports program paid the price this year when the Nelson school board cut the school’s travel budget in half. “Its worked very well the last two years but we're going Seca a little turmoil here as a turmoil is in deciding which teams and programs won't get travel money. “All our sports we had to cut back on the number of trips they are allowed to take outside our (West Kootenay) zone. “There's some sports we've had to make decisions that they could not go to the provin- cial championship,” he said. De Biasio said the only problem hiring drivers, as his school found out this year, is not knowing whether or not the school board can afford to support its extracurricular program. “I feel pretty confident that if the money's there, they'll (the Nelson school board) give it to us. But who knows what the situation is year to year, that’s the problem. “I think everyone’s caught in the middle but basically I think our coaches wouldn't coach 1ifthey had to drive right now, ” he said.
