Caledonia musical "State Fair" another great Success - Dec 7, 2002 – 12/8/2002 6:45:12 PM

Hats off to all who helped make it happen. In spite of cutbacks, regional population loss, and general attempts by Victoria to de-emphasise arts programs in the schools, local students again showed through their hard work that there is more to education than just "basics" and corporatization as recent "non-think tanks" would like us to believe. The bonus for Terrace residents is a display of talent showing us all that at least a very substantial number of our communities young people care to go the extra mile. …Full Story. More Stories…

ICY ROADS result in four accidents – 11/10/2002 11:32:23 PM

Busy Terrace Firefighters tend to injured occupant and prepare for hydraulic cutters to free person from vehicle.

Four vehicle accidents one one day - Nov 5, 2002 - icy conditions catch motorists by surprise.

The first call was 6:59 a.m. - a 50-year- old Kitimat man’s vehicle hit ice and rolled over near the airport hill on Hwy 37.

The second happened within the hour 7:56 a.m. - a 1994 Dodge pickup rolled over just south of the airport hill.

The third accident occurred less than a half hour later at 8:22 a.m.- a little closer to Terrace when a 1985 GMC pick-up crossed the centre line landing up in the ditch on the south side of Hwy 37.

The fourth occurred at 8:37 a.m. 41km east of Terrace near Little Oliver Creek. Although the vehicle, a 2001 Dodge Dakota pick-up truck suffered major damage, 3 occupants thanks to the seat belts, only suffered minor injuries.

The message from the RCMP is to winterize vehicles, take extra caution on the roads especially in frosty mornings, and to keep wearing those seatbelts - they could save your lives.

Be careful out there.

Special Thanks to Terrace Firefighters Who made extensive use of the jaws of life to get victims out of vehicles in at least two of the incidents. .

Below is a reprint from one of our "Kermode Quickshots Feature" with some Terrace Fire and Rescue photos of one of the incidents.

Ceremony at Tillicum Theatre with the Terrace Community Band and War Veterans on Stage. A blustery wind and driving rain couldn't keep the veterans away. Tolerating the weather seems a part of the ritual. Both the organizing committe and as importantly Terrace residents must greatly appreciate the contribution by Tillicum Twin Theatres of the use of the theatre for the opening portion of the ceremonies. Having a warm and dry "home" within such close distance from the Centopath enhances the event. Hats off to Bill Young and family.
