ICC meeting

Apropos a request from the Cariboo Regional District, a meeting for the Interlakes Community Centre’s (ICC) user groups, regarding the possible relocation of Bridge Lake Library from the Bridge Lake School building, to the ICC, was held June 7.

Some 40 users were unanimously opposed to providing temporary space inside the ICC for the library. They were, however, unanimously agreeable to having the library relocate onto the grounds of ICC.

The meeting also suggested a public hearing to discuss the library’s relocation.

Friends of Bridge Lake opens their annual Speaker Series at 7 p.m., July 5, at the ICC. Speaking on Solar Power, Ben Giedici, of Kamloops’ Riverside Energy Systems, discusses solar electric systems and how well they work in BC.
