Dousing the blaze
Huge fire at the Yellowknife dump that burned for over 12 hours. Put out by helicopters, a waterbomber, and every fire truck in Yellowknife.
Best photo of the firefighting that I've seen so far ! ! ! !

Frozen Eyes Photographic Society would like to invite you to view the work of students from K'alemi Dene School @ the Greenstone Building
The Frozen Eyes Photographic Society http://www.frozeneyes.com/ would like to invite you to view the work of students from K'alemi Dene School currently showing in the atrium of the Greenstone Building.
Springing from the experience of photographic mentoring for youth during the Arctic Winter Games of 2008, the Society has embarked on a program of education for youth around the Territory. To date this year, in addition to K'alemi Dene School, the Native Women's Centre, Open Skies Festival in Fort Simpson and the YK75th celebrations have had mentorship programs with another in Fort Laird in early July. Other projects are in discussion.
We would encourage you, should your schedule permit, to view the K'alemi Dene School work. To be candid, we were both surprised and gratified by the calibre of work shown by these students. If an organization in your community might be interested kindly have them contact us at info@frozeneyes.com
We would like to thank BHP Billiton and the NWT Arts Council whose generous financial support has made this program possible.
Regards,
David Prichard
