ALZHEIMER AND DEMENTIA ..support -

to life

THE MOUNTAINS moved when
Nisga’a Elementary-Secondary
School brought a Celebration of
Nisga’a Culture to Parkland
Elementary.

Lax Mihi - The Story of the
Lava Beds was presented by stu-
dents in teacher Dawn Germyn’s
grade four class. |

Narrated by Reg Percival, the
students told the story of haw the
lava beds were formed using an
adapted version of the original
legend as told by the late Chief
Eli Gesnell,

The play brought to
life the legend of the
lava beds as told by the
late Chief Eli Gosnell.

Paper mache became mountains
fighting back against the lava
flow, a raven taking the children
back 200 years to show them the
volcanic eruption and salmon on
their way to spawn.

Last Thursday’s performance at
Parkside was the first time the
class presented the play after a
month of work.

Germyn felt the play would be a
good way to put the environmen-
fal awareness she teaches fo prac-
lice.

Audrey ~ Adele — Gosnell’s
Nisga’a Language and Culture
class closed the presentation with
Gawagaanit. — The Nisga’a
Peace Dance, showing how twa
warting tribes end a battle.

Concerts boost theatre fund

_THE INTIMATE evening ¢on-
cert series to raise money for
Terrace Little Theatre's new
building fund has been declared
# Success.

Producer Peter Turner sald
about $1,500 was raised by the

three concerts held at. the 90-

seat McColl Playhouse on
Kalum Street.

Folk musicians Bill Hender-
son, Roy Forbes and Mark

Perry performed.

The concerts weren’t huge

money-makers, Turner said,
but they raised awareness of

the theatre group’s building
campaign and gave music-
lovers the closest seats they’ll
ever get to some top Canadian
performers,

And between his two shows,
ex-Chilliwack front man
Henderson held a songwritin

B
workshop with about 20 people.

‘Everyone really Hked the
workshop,”? Turner said, ‘It
ended up going about four and
a half hours or so.”

‘*The overall response’ from
the public has been really posi-
tive.. People are looking for
niore,”!
