Great Year for Lions Auction

Chris Adams
By Chris Adams

The 100 Mile Lions Club held its annual dinner and auction on Saturday, Nov. 2.

According to Lions member Chris Nickless, final numbers aren’t in, but the annual fundraiser made over $16,000 this year. He says that is a surprising figure given the downturn in the area economy.

The Lions Club will use the funds raised to support organizations and causes in the 100 Mile area, such as youth and adult sports teams, the Horse Lake Training center and cadets, and scholarships and bursaries, as well as families in need.

The BX Morning Show


I first got into radio when I was a kid when a friend and I made our own radio shows on cassete tapes. Growing up in 100 Mile House, I did a workstudy at this very station.

Thanks to some good advice from my radio mentor Larry Rode, I got a certificate in broadcast arts in 1991. After failing to break into radio after school, I did other jobs but kept my hand in, working as morning host and program director at my universitys station, WUFK in Fort Kent, Maine.

Coming back to 100 Mile, when the afternoon and news job opened up, I took the dive back into radio! When Larry retired after nearly 35 years in 100 Mile, I took over the morning show. I’m happy to be at CKBX, where I always wanted to work, and waking up my hometown!

Tune-in with Chris weekday mornings from 6am to 10am
