BCSF provincial membership "draft proposal".

[moyiesledhead]

The BCSF could have 100% of sledders signed up and we'll still lose the Caribou argument as long as the Green Party is running the Province.

Sounds like the old boys have no fight left.....

You're half right. I would have kept fighting with government and leaf lickers till hell froze over. Gave up the fight when I found myself arguing with un-appreciative sledders that just kept ignoring closures and snubbing agreements we made in good faith with full club awareness and support. Now they're whining about the new round of closures we told them would happen if they ignored the first ones.

Nobody cares till the signs go up.....then it's my fault!

Speaking of WildSight in the Kootenays, they are deep into the schools and the young children. They do field trips, special talks, and presentations. For the field trips they do with the students there is a waiver that the parents must sign and one of the conditions in the fine print states when it is signed reads "you support the projects and endeavours of WildSight."

All these "supporters" who don't really read the fine print or maybe read it and are okay with it are WildSight's numbers. How do you fight that kind of BS?

I get in to those schools first. lol. My WildSafeBC job, an initiative of the British Columbia Conservation foundation has me going school to school as an educator for safety and reduced human wildlife conflict. I've developed a great relationship with local educators, and they do not invite the other activist type groups into schools when they have me going in on a neutral platform. One of my son's teachers in school started beaking off about snowmobilers. This was brought to my attention and I made a formal complaint about that Teacher. He's a keyboard warrior and tried to target me a few times online.. until I told him the time and day I was coming to the school to discuss the situation with him... He saw me and ran... he hasn't been "available" to meet with me yet hahaha.. but he has stopped his propaganda spewing in his classroom.

You've come a lonnnggg way Trish, since we first talked years ago about dressing up your old cat. I'm really happy to watch your grow in the sled industry, and to have the moxie, and enthusiasm to carry on the torch. I'm also genuinely impressed to see that you back your words and your not afraid to correct whomever is spewing the wrong info. So keep up the good debates and education, cause this ole cowboy is burnt out after 37 years!!

Thank you so much for your support you guys. It truly means the world. Feels like the twilight zone sometimes, but inspiration from those who came before me in this fight keeps me plugging on. I truly have hope. There are some new faces, and new allies in the Caribou scene that give me hope.

You rock Trish, keep fighting the good fight. We are all behind you.

With summer FINALLY coming to a close I thought I’d bump this up to see if any headway was made on the B.C. membership idea. Every year I struggle to decide who’s membership to purchase and inevitably make the wrong choice. If not could we at least have a pass for HWY1 (Golden, Revy, Sic). Jk... well actually not at all.

Yes I’d love to buy a membership to all three but that’s just $$$$$.

I can tell you that will never happen, as all 3 clubs are not the same

It's not like ski hills where they are the same owners

Bump.
