Nielsen Gallery & Framing Second Avenue, Smithers 250 847 0070 There was this haunted house on the outskirts of the town which was avoided by all the town folk - the ghost which “lived” there was feared by all. However, an enterprising journalist decided to get the scoop of the day by photographing the fearsome phantom. When he entered the house, armed with only his camera, the ghost descended upon him , clanking chains et. Al. “I mean no harm - I just want your photograph.” The ghost was quite happy at this chance to make the headlines and posed for a number of ghostly shots. The happy journalist rushed back to his dark room and began developing the photos. Unfortunately, the turned out to be black and underexposed. So what’s the moral of the story? The spirit was willing but the flash was weak.

Vol. 1 Issue 42 October 30th, 2014 5 For Release 9:00AM PDT October 27, 2014 Houston & District Chamber of Commerce uses social media to invite everyone to vote The Houston & District Chamber of Commerce today rolled out a social media plan to encourage everyone to get out and vote in the upcoming provincial election. "It is important that everyone gets out and votes," states Chamber of Commerce President Troy Reitsma. In the last municipal election, less than 41% of eligible voters went to the polls. States President Reitsma: "In the last election, almost 1245 eligible voters did not give themselves the chance to have a voice. That is significant." The chamber's messages in this campaign will focus on getting more people out to vote. The plan invites every citizen to participate and involves all areas of social media: 1. Facebook Every citizen is invited to change their profile picture to the chamber's "VOTE" icon, downloadable from www.houstonchamber.ca or request from [email protected]. The icon is to be displayed from October 27-November 15. Choices of messaging include, "Your vote DOES make a difference"; "Make your government work for you" and "Don't be a silent taxpayer". Post the fact that you are going to vote and invite all your friends to do so. 2. Twitter Change your profile picture to the chamber's "VOTE" icon during October 27-November 15. Make #HoustonBC prominent in all your Tweets Tweet an invitation to vote to all your followers. Tweet when you have voted. Tweet and ask everyone else to vote too. Use hashtags to encourage conversation: #IVoted #Vote2014 #November15 #HoustonBC 3. Email Use the chamber's "VOTE" icon in your email signature between October 27-November 15. Send emails to your contact lists to encourage them to use their voice and vote. 4. Website Add the chamber's "VOTE" icon to your home page and invite everyone to get out and vote. Link the icon to www.civicinfo.bc.ca 5. Print The icon may also be printed from www.houstonchamber.ca to be displayed in home and shop windows, by cash registers, vehicles, etc. For more information: Troy Reitsma 250-845-2419 Maureen Czirfusz 250-845-7640 Congratulations to the recipients of the Business Excellence Awards presented at the Houston & District Chamber of Commerce event on October 25th.
