TERRACE MAYOR Dave Pernarowski was the recipient recently of a gift from Kitselas.

The gift took the form of a print and was presented in recognition of attending the welcoming banquet for National Addiction Awareness Week events held at Kitselas in November.

The Kitselas Youth Group received a grant to hold events in November.

The group's proposal was one of 30 accepted across the country and one of seven in BC to receive a $2,500 grant for National Aboriginal Addictions Awareness Week.

Kitselas was one of the seven grants that awarded for the BC Region.

A variety of sessions and workshops were held in November keying on awareness and what can be done to prevent addictions problems.
