Chase away the winter blahs with the 108 Ranch Lions’ world-famous All You Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner and Auction on Saturday (Feb. 26) at the 108 Community Hall. Viewing and happy hour is from 5 to 6 p.m., dinner goes from 6 to 7 p.m., and the auction starts at 7. Proceeds go to the 100 Mile House & District Soccer Association for the new soccer fields. Tickets are $12.50 each and are available at Donex, 100 Mile Sport Shop, The Wolf Radio, Dowe’s Diner and the Free Press or by phoning 250-791-6647 for information. Woodstove rewards Do you have an older woodstove still inefficiently belching undesirables into the air? Looking for $250 cash? If you live in the 100 Mile House area and are using an old woodstove, call the Cariboo Woodstove Exchange Hotline at 1-877-992-5833 to find a registered retailer and help clean up the air in your neighbourhood. There's a $250 cash reward for the first 40 woodstoves. Community grants The first edition of the Community Grants Online Newsletter is available by e-mailing grantwriter@cariboord.bc.ca. Funded in part by Northern Development Initiative Trust's Grant Writer Support Program, the Cariboo Regional District community grant writer can help people with grant research, application development and submission, and technical support. With lottery funds increasingly difficult to access, community groups need to produce the best possible grant application to get the jump on other groups.
