Bright lights in the sky Monday Mystery solved! on Monday evening, several Flying Lantern/Sky Lantern family firework devices were lit, launched & drifted into a local mill’s lumber yard and continued to burn once on the ground. Thankfully, mill workers de- tected the fires early and were able to ex- tinguish the lanterns before they caused a more severe fire incident. The device resembles a small hot air balloon, fuelled by a candle or solid fuel flame. When released the lanterns can fly to great heights and drift with the wind. This product is supposed to stay airborne until the heat source burns out. But the lanterns can’t be controlled once released and may drift into trees, building rooftops, fields of cured grass and other combustible materials. Fire Chief David Tomkinson cautions members of the community about the po- tential fire risks of the flying lanterns and is urging citizens to discontinue their use. “The potential for these sky lanterns to cause a large fire remains a very real threat – especially at this time of year when grass is well cured and winds are unpredictable…” Community 50’s/60’s Sock Hop Saturday, April 5, Lower nicola Com- munity Hall, 8pm- ??? $15.00 per person, baron of Beef at 9:30pm.
