Slugs bring out the killer instinct

We're just back from our annual Mothers day week to the cabin.
We have been making this trip for many years, meeting up with a group of Realtor friends that have been making the annual Mother's Day trip for over 20 years. They leave their wives at home and rent a houseboat. They tour 3 to 4 arms of the lake over a 5 day period and stay at least 2 nights at Seymour Arm. This year they gave up 1 day of their trip to help build our new dock. We often wonder how they can leave the wives for the past 20 years on Mothers Day. Since they all have been married to the same ladies for 30 years or more, they must be doing something right. Thanks to Larry, Al, Brian and Steve

Eagle River Secondary School principal Rag Fogarty presented Tamzyn Bradley of Seymour Arm with the Governor General's Academic Medal. Tamzyn, who took her grade 12 at ERSS, achieved the highest average upon graduation.

Mud Slide Takes Out Town Water Supply!
On Friday July 9th, at approximately 5:30 am a large mud slide came down Long Ridge above the town's dam site, breaking the Dam. The slide followed the creek right down to the lake, causing the closure of the road to the south shore, and shakey hollow (bug house bay) campsite. Ron Krease was busy clearing the mud, huge boulders and trees, at last count. The town is on limited water, until something can be done with the dam.
