We are considering switching the Western Run (Kitwanga, Gitanyow, Gitwangak) from every other Saturday to every other Sunday, starting in May.
Last weekend when I went on Sunday instead of Saturday, I had more people than I usually get. The transit bus now has a Saturday trip to Terrace and people often have events on Saturdays so maybe Sunday would be better. What do you think?
I’m going to do the New Hazelton – Tse-kya run today, which was missed last week due to mechanical difficulties. I’ll start at Roche View Lodge about 2 pm.
Update:
I’m in the Red Apple parking lot until shortly after 3 pm. After that I’ll do Alderway Loop in Tse-kya. I’ll finish with a stop at Allen Park in New Hazelton.
I’ll be at the Gitwangak hall parking lot until about 4:05.
I’ll be at Skeena Trading until about 3:20, then on to Wolf Street and the hall parking lot.
By the way, folks, I’m out of books for preschool kids.
Today, it’s the Western Run, starting at the Kitwanga General Store about noon, then on to Gitanyow and Gitwangak. This trip normally takes place every other Saturday. This is a one-time schedule change.
This is a reminder that the Book Bus run originally scheduled for Saturday, April 14 will take place instead on Sunday, April 15, starting at noon at Kitwanga General Store. Gitanyow and Gitwangak will follow. 🙂
We’re back on the road! It’s Gitsegukla and South Hazelton today, starting at the health station in Gitsegukla about 2 pm.
The Book Bus is ready to roll again! Thursday afternoon, I’m going to Gitsegukla and South Hazelton. I’ll try to make up some of the missed runs. Stay tuned for updates.
Thanks are due to Joel Letendre for doing the repairs, to Napa in Smithers and to Aardvark Towing in New Hazelton for giving us discounts on parts and towing, respectively. We are also grateful for the monetary donation from the Kitwanga quilters. They didn’t know it but they donated just in time to help offset some of the costs of the repairs. The community support for our program is greatly appreciated.
There will be no Book Bus runs this week due to mechanical problems. Stay tuned for updates. It looks like the bus needs a new starter.
It’s a beautiful day in Kitwanga. I’ll be here until about 12:50, then I’m off to Gitanyow and then Gitwangak.
