Hello All,
Thank you to the Block Watch Captains who attended the Annual Block Watch Meeting on Wednesday evening. I can appreciate that it is difficult to attend various events and meetings as there is a lot happening in our Village right now.
Having said that, All Block Watch Captains and Co-captains are required to submit a new application and apply for a current criminal record check as the information on file with the Squamish RCMP is outdated. For those BW Captains and Co-captains who did not attend the meeting on November 5, there is an opportunity to meet with the Squamish RCMP Block Watch Coordinator on Monday, November 17 from 4:30 - 6 pm at the Village Office to submit a new BW application and provide one piece of picture (eg. BC Drivers Licence). The ID and application must be presented in person to the Squamish BW Coordintor or alternatively, applicants can appear in person at the Squamish RCMP detachment.
I hope that if you didn't make it to the meeting on Wednesday, you are able to take advantage of this opportunity.

Work being done at the substation so the crews will need to turn to power off for safety/ switching reasons.

Some food the bears have been eating like forest berries, apples, plums and blackberries, will soon be gone. Now the bears have to bulk up by eating huge amounts before winter hibernation. As food becomes scarce they have to find new food sources here, or move back into the mountains.
Lions Bay residents can do two things to prevent the remaining bears from eating human food, coming into conflict with people, and becoming a problem.
1) Maintain extra vigilance concerning garbage storage, accessible bird seed, keeping fruit out of compost, picking ripe fruit and deadfall, not storing soiled diapers outside, keeping barbeque grills clean, and freezing seafood until putting outside garbage day.
2) Discourage bears from feeling comfortable on our properties. From the safety of a window or deck, bang pots, sound an air horn, or yell like you are admonishing a misbehaving dog! If there is a hose or water gun nearby spray the bear. If you are in your car, sound the horn repeatedly. Bears who retain their natural fear of humans are more likely to return to the mountains.
Let’s keep local bears wild! Soon they will return to the mountains.

Starting Monday, September 29, Kiewit will be making the following changes to the highway in our area. In Central Lions Bay some of the pavement will be milled or grooved in preparation for paving. This will not affect the use of the on and off ramps. In the Brunswick Beach area, there will be a shift in traffic patterns near Brunswick Pit. This will not affect the left hand turn from the highway into Brunswick Beach.
