If you’re seeking summer adventure in recreation, sports or leisure, look no further than the Lakes District.

Another week has come and gone. But what happened to our summer

The following are just a few of the many edible plants that grow in the Lakes District.

Howdy friends & neighbours! It’s that time of year and before you know it another great Fall Fair will be upon us again.

As the name implies, the Lakes District and area is known for its amazing lakes and boating opportunities. And whether you are looking for the calm and quiet and relaxing experience of canoeing, kayaking, or sailing, or the adrenalin rush of water skiing, jet boating or power boating, you will find a lake in the Lakes District perfect for your brand of summer fun.

The history of Burns Lake is rich in First Nations history, culture, and legend. This is because long before the arrival of Europeans, several distinct groups of First Nation people inhabited the area. Today Burns Lake has six native bands - Cheslatta Carrier Nation, Lake Babine Nation, Burns Lake Band, Wet’suwet’en, Nee-Tahi-Buhn Band, and Skin Tyee.

We are well into July and still we have had no really hot weather. Some places it's too hot or flooding. We have a very heavy hay crop but so far no drying weather. Maybe there will be a turn and a break for the ranchers.

I just had a nice little note slipped under the P.O. door this morning.

Current events in the Middle East remind me of psalm 83, “Come, let us cut off Israel from being a nation; that the name of Israel be no more in remembrance.”
