Week 15 notes show the Motor Vehicle Branch testing in Chetwynd for the first time and a Ladies Curling Playdown entry fee of four dollars per rink.

Two years ago, truck drivers halted work briefly, ICBC losses loomed, and local curling clubs boasted many teams while charity trees funded food baskets.
