PAUL BICKFORD [email protected]

Reneltta Arluk had some goals in taking a theatre workshop for young people to three communities in the NWT, including Hay River. One goal was to help young people – aged 12 to 17 – find and develop their interests in the performing arts, such as theatre, spoken word and song. "Then they can go and further pursue it," Arluk said. She and two other per- formers – singer Renee Ben- son from New York City and spoken word artist Zaccheus Jackson from Vancouver – visited Hay River from Oct. 25 to 29, following stops in Yellowknife and Fort Smith. Arluk said another of her goals was to emphasize the importance of developing the performing arts in com- munities, adding most have a sports arena but not every location has a theatre. "I would like to bring a consciousness to the com- munity that if you invest in the arts, you're investing into the voice of the youth, because we're all storytellers and we all need to tell our Paul Bickford/NNSL photo own stories," she said.

PAUL BICKFORD [email protected]

There will not be a North- ern Hockey Challenge this winter, but members of the Hay River Huskies have not forgotten the special experi- ence of the first one. So 10 members of the team volunteered over the weekend to pass on some of their hock- ey knowledge at the NTPC Huskies Hockey Camp as a way to say thank you to the town for its support last win- ter. Stephane Millette, a member of the Huskies, said everybody loved the North- ern Hockey Challenge and the players wish that it was hap- pening this year. "So we all figured we might as well give something back to the kids," he said. The Northern Hockey Challenge featured the best senior men's hockey players in the NWT, Nunavut and north- ern Quebec. Hay River played in the western division against Inuvik and Yellowknife.
