TERRACE — The Terrace
community tent, set up at the
arena, is the site this week of the
Kermode Frindship Centre's
native spirituality workshop.

It includes a free public jam
session tonight in the tent.

“Anybody who’s there who
can play the guitar or whatever
can play,’’. said workshop
orgainizer Benita Chapdelaine.
* It’s just a fun-filled evening,”*

The ‘‘Rising Spirit’?
workshop has attracted 175 par-
ticipants. It began Monday with
a focus on drug and alcohol
abuse, and runs umiil Friday,

Sessions held in the tent and
led by two teachers focus on the
healing of self, family and the
community, substance and sex-
ual abuse, grieving and dreams,
says Chapdelaine.

One technique used by par-
ticipants is the healing circle,
which Chapdelaine describes as
‘very powerful,’””

“It hits a lot of stuff that’s
been buried for a long time.
People learn how to cope with
things. It’s a beautiful feeling
from the release,” she said, ad-
ding that the only way to

Chapdelaine said.

added.

other people think positively, so
that they can change their ways.

teacher — has been involved
with social and economic pro-

past 10 years, and has produced

TERRACE — It’s the end of an

Vera

. The conventional box-shaped

_police cruisers most of us are
familiar with are being replaced
“by’ the sleek and rounded
automotive designs
‘<:. 1990s. And the new trend hasn’t

“passed the Terrace RCMP

of the

‘detachment.

Two new Chevrolet Caprices
have been. added to the local
detachment’s fleet of vehicles.

Inspector Lawrence Yeske
said one is being used by the
highway patrol, while: ithe other

is being used by the detachment
officers.

“I haven’t heard any com-
plaints about them,”’ he said.
“They seem to be working out
all right.’*

Yeske predicted other car
makers’ models used by police
detachments will likely also
shift to the more modern styl-
ing.

So far, he said, the new cars
have been greeted with en-
thusiasm by local officers. “*Be-
ing new cars, ney all want to
drive them.””
