Page 8A The Castlegar Sun Wednesday, July 22, 1992 Appeal to made again to stop Christina Lake logging TRAIL TIMES The team developed voluntary guidelines for logging the site Another appeal will be made to the province for a land swap to prevent logging at Christina Lake. Although the government has previously rejected a swap, the Christina Lake planning team decided to give this option anoth er try after holding a public meet- ing Sunday on a proposed ing plan. “A certain faction in the com- munity has convinced people that this option hasn't been pursued or hasn't been pursued properly,” said Margaret Maximenko, Regional District of Kootenay Boundary board member for istina Lake. “The overwhelm- ing message at the meeting is that (a land swap) is what they want.” The planning team was estab- lished with funding from the RDKB and the province to work with all interested parties, includ- ing Kamloops resident Marvin Kempston who owns 218-acres parcel at the southwest corner of the lake that he intends to log.

Cer- tain areas will have no logs removed because of soil instabili ly. An ad hoc group called the Christina Lake Ratepayers’ Asso- ciation, which has a member on the planning team, opposes the logging plan because it provides no guarantees and may encourage logging on far larger tracts of Crown land, Gord Nichols, ager of the deciding what logging would take place on the Kempston prop- erty. Boundary forest district, indicat- ed logging on the private parcel “will in no way set a precedent for the Crown forest in the vicini- ty.” Nichols indicated that any log- ging on Crown land must not impact on the visual qualities of the lake.

The five-man team of Laurie Palibroda, Ray Bartlett, Cam Barlow, Brian Miller, and former B.C. Lion John Blain may have won the tourney with a 13-under at the Jim Young Celebrity scramble, but the real winner was the Red Cross. The one day tourney raised about $18,000 for the charity, an increase of around $2,000 from last year. “We were delighted” said tour- ney participant and Red Cross coordinator Harry Grossmith. Everything conspired to make it a perfect day for the event. The weather was hot and sunny, and the mood was relaxed and jok- ing. “You couldn't have asked for a better day.” He also said that you could not ask for better hosts than Jim Young and BCTV’s John McKeachie, better organizers than Stosh Uchida, Carl Henne, and Alex Birukow, and long time tourney sponsors Air BC, Celgar, Labbats, and the Sandman Inn. Kudos also have to be handed out to the entire staff at the club house, who kept all of the 130 golfers fueled with a fantastic lunch. The runner up teams tied at 12-under, but due to a complicat- ed process, they were separated into second place (Alex Birukow, Jim Sandlak, Jim Milne, Brian Brown, and Jeff Bywater) and third (Keith Stewart, Gary Kil- Patrick, Nick Oglow, Chuck Davison, and Paul Girody) Like most of the participants- those who did well and those who promised-te-do better- Gros- smith was talking. about the future “We're looking forward to doing this again next year.” Many of the participants said they will be back next year, and the main reason is the good times. Former B.C. Lion, and the old- est rookie in Canadian Football League history, Mike Belle- fontaine, said it's great to get together with other pros. “I can't believe the amount of People here,” he said, referring to the 30 sports celebrities who played the Castlegar course. For him it’s the perfect Opportunity to see his old mentor, Jim Young. “Jim kind of took me under his wing when he was coaching. He taught me the tricks of the trade.” One of the vets of the tourney, and a former team mate of Young's is John Blain, the celebrity of the winning five- some. Blain was one of the Car- diac Kids along with Jerry Taggy and Jim Young. Currently an alternate educa- tion teacher in North Vancouver, he said Young can take a big chunk of the credit for the tour- ney’s success. “Jim's definitely got a follow- ing, there's no doubt about it.” He credited the tourney with the importance of the Red Cross in Castlegar. “A lot of towns in B.C. don’t put out the effort this town does,” he said, citing the opening of the Red Cross office in town as that effort paying off. The tourney itself is great because it gives all the jocks an opportunity to raise money while having a blast. Moving from football to ski- ing, Castlegar-native Felix Bel- czyk made it home for his third tourney. “It's the best tourney I go to,” said the recently retired Belczyk He plans on improving his game this coming September, after set- tligg. into retirement. He has a lot of things on the go right now, including a wedding next week. To the disappointment of a lot of the women working at the golf course, that wedding is his own. His secret at the tourney was his hot ball, a Titleist that refused to go any less than 250 yards off WEDNESDAY, July 22, 19 A 13-under earned John Blain (2nd from right) and crew the tourney title. the tee. This from a guy who said he has to work on his game He's looking forward to September for another reason besides improving his links play - some time to visit home. His last two visits have only lasted one and two days. The winner of the best excuse award went to Castlegar resident and New Jersey Devil (and free agent) Claude Vilgrain. He said his round could have been better. “Some body ran over my clubs,” he laughed. And we'll let Vilgrain’s words sum up the attitudes of all atten- dees of the tourney. “It’s a great chance to meet people and donate some time to a great organization, the Red Cross.” Nelson-native and Vancouver Canuck Greg Adams Pat Price was less than enthusiastic about the last shot.
