Grand Forks Fire and Rescue hosted a car wash and hot dog sale at the fire hall on July 7.

Proceeds raised from the efforts will be used to purchase equipment and storage facilities at the department’s new training grounds.

“We’re trying to raise money for a training ground we’re trying to de-

velop by the airport,” explained volunteer firefighter Norm Dimock. “This car wash and hot dog sale is an effort to raise money to buy equipment and organize the training ground.”

The training grounds are currently in the works, with the fences already in place.

Dimock noted that they are now working to level the field.

“Once that gets leveled off we’re going to

start putting props on it for training,” he said.

“We haven’t designed the entire thing yet but there will be spots for car fires, structure fires and probably have some high angle full rescue type equipment as well. It’s too level to do a slope rescue but we’ll try and find some confined space.”

Grand Forks Fire and Rescue hopes to have the grounds completed before next year.

now that’s more like it.

Unemployment drops from 7.7 per cent in May and 8.3 per cent in June 2011.

About 5,200 people were looking for work, 1,200 fewer than last year.

The figures cover East and West Kootenay combined.

Nationally, the jobless rate was 7.2 per cent in June, virtually unchanged from the previous month.

What’s New with What’s Old? 100-plus year-old Sandon photo sale causes an ownership stir “However, I am disappointed he did not try to find out who the photo actually belonged to,” he says. “I think this is a true example of how online auction houses have

GREG NESTEROFF West Kootenay Advertiser

An original photo of Sandon taken in 1900 or earlier sold last week on eBay for $348 US. But a local historical society is concerned it came from their collection.

The photo’s reverse bears the stamp “West Kootenay Historical Society Catalogue No. 711,” historian Elsie G. Turnbull’s signature, and the notation “done by archives.”

The West Kootenay Historical Society was the forerunner to the Trail Historical Society, founded in the 1950s. Turnbull, a prolific writer and author of several books on local history, was a key member.

Present historical society president Jamie Forbes says this photo was one of many she collected.

had a negative impact on local archives and museums.”

Forbes says while they are “very diligent” in scrutinizing such auctions, “unfortunately we must

use our precious dollars to compete with the private sector.”

He adds he would have been more upset if the photo had been one of Trail.

This photo of Sandon, ca. 1900, sold for nearly $350 US last week on eBay. However, the back says it belonged to the West Kootenay Historical Society.

“It is her handwriting on the back and she accessioned it, giving it the number,” he says. “We have the accession register with her hand-written entry. I don’t know how it was removed from the collection.”

It’s not clear ei-

ther which archives the note on the back refers to. The BC Archives collection has this photo, but their source wasn’t this copy, judging from creases visible in an on-line scan.

The society asked the seller to end the

auction and return the photo to them.

However, the reply didn’t come until after bidding closed. The seller, from Aldergrove, said he found the photo at a flea market.

Forbes says they will leave it at that.

We never set out to win a popularity contest, but with class-leading economy, reliability and safety, the Toyota Corolla helps so many get where they need to go with little worry or expense. And with 80% percent of all Corollas sold in the last 20 years still on road, isn’t it gratifying to know that if you wanted to drive this car for a generation, you could. Or you could easily pass it along to the next generation. Now, that’s an achievement we’re very proud of.

Rocks, dirt and trees - slip sliding away JIM SINCLAIR WKA Editor

There’s something that’s been bothering John Vanin of Genelle and he’s been worried about it for quite a while.

It’s a disappearing hill near his home and he’s been casually monitoring its erosion since moving to Genelle about ten years ago.

The hill is a couple of hundred feet high, with China Creek at the bottom and CP Rail tracks at the top.

Mr. Vanin guided me on July 9 to the top where a steady stream of dirt and rocks was slowly, and sometimes quickly sliding toward the creek below.

There are trees that have tumbled and more that will very soon. The recent heavy rains had done a lot in accelerating the erosion.

Vanin said he had never seen such a rapid change in the cliff, an observation shared by neighbour Dwayne Mills who has lived in the area for 21 years.

The major source of concern for these men and others in the area, is the rail line at the 2010 TOYOTA TUNDRA LHL18295

top. Vanin brought a tape measure on our walk, which indicated a mere 18 feet from the tracks to the edge of the cliff – a distance likely to shorten at very short notice.

“There was a fellow from CP here,” said Vanin, “and a fellow from Emcon and some governmenttype people and they said it has been an issue for years, as to whose responsibility it is.”

Work has been ongoing on the part of CP Rail, with many 2004 CHEV MALIBU MAXX LHL00423

“It was eroding back then and it’s just gone on from there,” the director said.

“I have reported it a number of times to CPR and different authorities and they kept saying there was nothing to worry about.

“It’s been a problem for a long time and it should have been addressed earlier,” she said. “That’s my personal feeling.”

In the meantime it appears there is yet another area in the region with a vested interest in a prolonged drying trend.

It does appear, to the untrained eye, that there is enough room to do so. The major concern is the worry that a rail car or cars loaded with hazardous material could eventually plunge over the edge.

Like many in the area she is keeping close tabs on the cliff and when the record breaking rains of June occurred the alarm bells rang with greater intensity than ever.

Worley described how she’s been watching the deterioration since the 80s.

Rossland Mountain Market making big impression ARNE PETRYSHEN West Kootenay Advertiser

Rossland may be in the process of an extensive renovation, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t reasons to come to the city.

On the contrary, the city is still teeming with things to do, from the regular shops, still open to business, to the many trails that permeate the city.

One of the best ways to get a feel for what Rossland is real-

up the hill from the post office.

While that may make a bit more effort to find it, the organizers assure any market shoppers that the search will not be in

vain, with the market busier and more bustling than ever.

Rachael Roussin, who organizes the market, said merchants have to follow a strict bake it/build it/grow it mandate to sell their goods.

That means that the markets goods are produced locally by the small farms and craftsman of the Kootenay region.

Farms like Centre Road Farms and Mad Dog Farms sell their fresh produce

Morissette credits his experience in Canadian Idol as “a turning point� for his life and career. “I was in Kelowna and sort of stuck in a construction job that I didn’t like and I was partying lots,� he said. “Canadian Idol was sort of my escape from all of that and getting my head back

on my shoulders. I started playing music more seriously.�

But Montrose native and drummer Shane Deyotte has been heavily involved in helping Morissette make the transition to a new band. “We’ve been best friends since we were kids,� Deyotte said. “I think with this band, we’re trying to do something a bit different and we’re doing our own style of

As an aspiring musician it was inevitable that Gary Morissette would fly the coop.

The Fruitvale native left the area to compete on Canadian Idol in 2008 when he was only 21-years-old and he’s still marching to the beat of his own drum. “I was working construction in Kelowna and did the Canadian Idol because I sort of wanted to get out of town and that brought me to Toronto,� he explained. “I really liked it there.�

But moving to Toronto required a commitment from the band too. “My band at the time was the Unknown Culprits in Kelowna and I had to convince them to come to Toronto with me,� he said. “I just went out on a limb and decided to go over there. Then we broke up in November and I started this band with my best friend Shane (Deyotte).�

music.�

Deyotte said the band’s style has been compared to Weezer, Nirvana, Bad Religion and NOFX and was pleased about how many people associate their music to so many different genres. “It’s tough to categorize ourselves because we like to use a lot of punk, but overall it’s all rock,� Deyotte said. “We think we’ve found a happy medium with punk and alt rock and done our own thing.�

But walking down a career path as musicians hasn’t always been easy and the summer tour is proof of that.

The group has had a stream of bad luck with bouts ranging from breakdowns to getting caught in a flood in Thunder Bay, getting lost on dirt road detours in Ontario and Manitoba and finally herding cattle until midnight in small-town Saskatchewan. “It’s been pretty crazy actually,� he explained while reminiscing about the experiences the group has had on the summer tour. “Before we even left town the van broke down in Sault Ste. Marie and so we had to get the van fixed there so that was $500 right off the hop.�

Fortunately the band is so “amped� on performing, he disregarded the hurdles of travel as simply “funny stories,� but both boys agreed that it’s nice to be home. “It’s great to be back and getting to play a show for all of our friends and family,� said Deyotte. “We’ve had a really long tour and being home is nice. “We get to relax for a week after this and then we head to Kelowna.�

The tour will wrap up in Toronto on July 31.

Forest Practices Board head returns to West Kootenay GREG NESTEROFF West Kootenay Advertiser

The executive director of the Forest Practices Board has left his position to take up new pursuits closer to his West Kootenay home.

Fred Parker joined

knowing when to ask, when to tell, and always grounded by a forest stewardship ethic and caring about the people.”

Parker, formerly of Castlegar, was a manager with the Interior Lumber Manufacturers Association and

is a past director of the Columbia Basin Trust.

He lives in Argenta, coincidentally not far from the headquarters of Meadow Creek Cedar, whose operations the board found “unsound” in a recent audit.

Board chair Al Gorley said in a statement that Parker has competently guided staff, board members, and three different chairs “through innumerable challenges, and has left an enduring stamp on the board’s work.”

“Perhaps one of Fred’s greatest assets has been the relationships he built and maintained with a wide variety of individuals with an interest in the forest,” Gorley said.

“People from all levels and perspectives have taken him into their confidence and benefited from his thoughtful advice.”

Gorley said Parker’s “straightforward approach” and broad knowledge of BC’s forests and forest-dependent communities served the board and the people of BC well.

...just a place to purchase goods, for three hours on Thursday afternoon, it’s also a place to meet people, chat with friends and listen to music.

“It takes the place of a social gathering,” Roussin said.

The market runs Thursdays from 3-6 p.m. for the summer.

Roussin said the reason the market is on Thursday is a product of the Rossland way of life, as most locals are busy biking or mountain climbing on the weekends.

As for music, the

and cross contamination. Keeping food at proper temperatures - indoors and out - is critical in preventing the growth of foodborne bacteria. The key is to never let your food remain in the “Danger Zone” – between 4°C and 60°C (40° F and 140° F) – for more than 2 hours.

Cold, perishable food should be kept in the cooler at 4°C (40° F) or below, until serving time. Once served, it should not sit out for longer than two hours. Food in indi-

SUBMITTED

ages can be thawed in cold running water.

Defrosting meat in the microwave is acceptable, if placed immediately on the grill.

Cross contamination occurs when bacteria or disease causing microorganisms are transferred from one food item to another. Prevent cross contamination by: keeping raw meat away from other foods so juices don’t leak out onto other foods; using separate utensils, cutting boards, dishes, and other cooking equipment for raw and cooked meats; washing your hands

carefully with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds before and after handling raw meat. Finally, thoroughly wash and dry all cooking equipment, utensils, work surfaces, and reduce bacterial contamination by spraying or soaking surfaces with a 10% bleach solution.

Purchase and use a digital stem thermometer to take reliable internal temperatures of cooked food.

The following internal temperatures are recommended for food safety: Continued on P. A17

Sandon photo sale

Continued from P. A3

The same seller did list two vintage Trail photos at the same time, but Forbes doesn’t think they came from the society’s collection, and in any case they have other copies.

One, which was taken by pioneer photographer E.C. Hendee, showing the early Columbia River steamer SS Lytton, sold for $102.50

US, while the other of a holiday crowd in front of the Crown Point Hotel went for $51 US. The high price the Sandon photo generated isn’t surprising given both the image and the photographer.

Richard H. Trueman (1856-1911) had studios in Sandon, Kaslo, Revelstoke, Grand Forks, and Vancouver, and took some of the most

He is perhaps best known for his portrait of a train stopped on Payne Bluff along the Kaslo and Slocan Railway, with several passengers and crew perched precariously nearby.

The photo in question was taken before the great fire of May 4, 1900 wiping out Reco Avenue, Sandon’s narrow main street.

Sculpture Talk

Welcome to our new regular feature introducing the artists behind the sculptures in this year’s Castlegar SculptureWalk.

‘Ascension’ (recycled steel and wood) Last year’s Sculpturewalk was one Carl Sean McMahon remembers fondly. His ‘Linotype Wapiti’, created primarily from an old printing press at the Castlegar News, won the overall Peoples Choice Award, selected as the favourite of all those who voted over the four month balloting period. The end result sees McMahon’s sculpture permanently displayed at Castlegar City Hall, along with the inaugural winner, Dennis Kleine’s ‘Peace’. To say nothing of the $3000.00 cash prize that accompanies the city’s purchase of his winning work.

“I was completely taken aback, in a good way of course!” McMahon says. “There were so many worthy entrants and such a display of talent that to be the favourite of all those who voted is really gratifying.

It was the culminating moment in a great event.”

McMahon is back this year with yet another imaginative sculpture, again using recycled materials.

‘Ascension’ is a six foot avian figure, wings outstretched and tail feathers spread, made of recycled metal and slats from salvaged wooden chairs. As the sculptor explains, the two materials work in several ways. “The combination of them creates both a tangible divergence and at the same time there is congruence, a visual union.”

‘Ascension’ continues one of McMahon’s recurring themes, what he calls “metal air animals”. They are one part of his Resurgence series of sculptures that includes “metal land animals” and “metal water animals”. ‘Avocet’ – one of the “metal air animals” - was a Juror’s Choice winner at the 2010 Sydney Fine

Art Show.

With this current work he has incorporated another material into his fantastical metal animal sculptures. The end result is again intricate and pleasing as a whole. As opposed to strictly mono-colour metal works, ‘Ascension’ deftly uses the various shades and tones of the wooden chairs to great effect.

“The Resurgence series and current works like ‘Ascension’ are based on the fact that our society is increasingly becoming a disposable one,” McMahon says. “Now, products

‘Ascension’ are based on the fact that our society is increasingly becoming a disposable one.”

Carl Sean McMahon

are manufactured to break down or be obsolete within a few years.

That strains all resources, and to me there is no doubt we can’t continue this way indefinitely. So I take recycled scrap and create art from it, as so many artists do.”

While his studio and workshop on Salt Spring Island is a pleasant oasis from the consumerism and seemingly fatalistic bent of our current society, McMahon’s sculptures are a compelling and nuanced comment on modernity, beautifully crafted from the detritus of today’s throwaway world.

Horoscope Michael O’Connor

ffor th the

July JJul ul 13, 2012

Tip of the Week: The next round of Mercury Retrograde begins this week (July 14 - August 7). While every single factor is influenced by the whole chart, we can gain some general insights. When Mercury is Retrograde, communications tend to get distorted. This is especially true of electrical and other mechanical devices. Yet, even communications between people in daily conversation can produce mixed messages. However, with awareness one can tap the deeper reaches and more positive attributes which include deepened concentration and the capacity to access subtleties of meaning and interpretation that the otherwise fast moving and busy mind, which Mercury symbolizes, tends to overlook. The sign placement of Mercury is another consideration and this time it is in Leo. Stubborn pride and jealousy of the gifts and attention given to others are the main culprits to watch for with this placement. The overall pattern of aspects between planets at the moment Mercury turns Rx is another factor. Fortunately in this case the aspects are very harmonious, which should prove to lesson the sometimes dramatic effects. How Mercury Rx makes aspects to the overall planetary picture of one’s Natal Chart and ‘where’ it is situated (House) for any person are the most important factors to consider. P.S. The New Moon in Cancer occurs on July 18th.

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20)

Spending quality time with family and friends is high on your priority list these days, or perhaps should be. Your ability to focus on any particular person, project or thing may be an issue. Allowing for variety and light heartedness will help a lot. Indulge your curiosities and take time out to play. Fill your ‘fun tanks’!

TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21)

A busy time continues. You are in a mood to get a lot done and frivolous activities may not be so appealing. If family members are not so focused you may experience inner and/or outer conflicts, or at least feel moody. Aim to maintain a focus yet attend to a variety of fronts, as in do the rounds and continue until everything is done!

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUN 21)

An expansive cycle has begun for you. It is important to focus now if you want to increase your influence and/or income. As ever, how you consciously engage and the quality of your choices will significantly determine the outcome. Although this stands to be an extra creative cycle, synchronizing your thoughts and communications with others may require extra attention.

CANCER (JUN 21 – JUL 22)

Your world is changing quickly and steadily. You may be getting more attention than usual or different kinds, but is it the sort you want? You may feel the need to get to the bottom of things somehow. Maintaining your poise and center may be an issue. If so, focus to meditate, breathe more consciously, let go of the need to control others and allow.

LEO (JUL 22 – AUG 23)

Balancing inner retreat and work with outer activity and duties continues. The time is right to prepare for the future verses act directly upon it. Plan and network and set the stage for future activities. Opportunities are likely knocking and this will continue. Yet you may have to concentrate more intently to take full advantage.

VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 22)

Your power potential is steadily rising. You feel ambitious to increase your authority and influence, yet perhaps feel cautious as well. The time is right to take some risks, yet very calculated ones. Acknowledge yourself and do not underestimate your potential. In your communications listen more intently and seek to be more understanding than simply understood.

LIBRA (SEP 22 – OCT 22)

Many new ideas and visions are gathering in your mind. At best you feel inspired and enthusiastic, at worst a bit overwhelmed. Broadening your perspectives and seeing a bigger picture remains ideal. Knowing the difference between dreams, visions, goals, plans and fantasies may prove extra important now. Each can be of value but may require clear categorization.

SCORPIO (OCT 22 – NOV 21)

Who and how you used to be is dissolving. Ideally you feel grounded enough to maintain your center and be creative, productive and happy anyway. Yet this may not be so easy. Trust, patience and acceptance are keywords that may be of assistance. Avoid long term plans and commitments for now and aim to be here now, in the shifting currents.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 21 – DEC 21)

Change is in the air and this should be quite noticeable. Endings and new beginnings will become even more evident over the next several weeks. Since resistance is futile, you are wise to consciously cooperate. At worst, you may feel a little lost.

This may increase for a while yet. Aim for new territory somehow and trust that is where you need to go.

CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 19)

Taking the initiative to create new states of harmony and balance close to home is in focus. This may well imply your house, your family and/or how you literally feel in your own skin. Your confidence levels may not be as high as you like and it may feel necessary to rear in the reigns on an over active imagination. Aim to be the strong silent type for a while.

AQUARIUS (JAN 19 – FEB 19)

Nurturing a healthier and more wholesome lifestyle continues. Your focus may be upon both the short and the long term.

Enjoying more play and fun is a good short term focus. For the longer term, become aware of and aim to reduce or break free from those activities and rhythms that produce undue stress. Simplify!

PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 20)

A creative cycle is upon you. Yet, to fully capitalize you may need a boost of confidence. Creating beauty in your living space and or clearing the clutter and establishing an environment that feels inspiring may be your best first step. Take time out and healthy space from others for a while. Direct a constructively critical focus to improve upon your talents.

Connecting with the Community

7th ANNUAL COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION COUNCIL POLICY: VOLUNTEER OF THE CITY In the past, the City used to mail out invitation letters to organizations that generated volunteers, but this process was flawed due to the fact that many individuals and groups for which the City may be unaware, would not have received a much deserved invitation. In 2009, Council adopted a new policy that publicly announces the event as opposed to invitations to organizations.

POLICY:

Council may give recognition to a volunteer or a group of volunteers for service above and beyond of those generally performed in the Community.”

POLICY PROCEDURE:

When Council is giving consideration to the recognition to an individual or group, it shall make its deliberations “in camera” and when a decision to give recognition has been made, it shall then be announced by the Mayor at the Annual Community Volunteer Recognition Evening.

CRITERIA:

• The individual or group should be honoured for its volunteer work in the City of Grand Forks or for volunteer work that has had an impact on the City of Grand Forks; • The individual or group should not have been paid or received any form of financial remuneration for the work or activity for which the volunteer is being considered; • The individual or group should have made a significant commitment to the community to be considered for the recognition; • There is substantial support from the Community through letters of recommendations outlining the volunteerism history and the impact on the community; • A special volunteer recognition may be given after the passing of the individual; • Prior to giving any recognition of volunteer of the year, the City must call for nominations publicly in a Regular Council Meeting and through the City’s Newsletter.

CALL FOR NOMINATIONS:

At their Regular Meeting on June 25th, 2012, Council adopted the resolution that publicly announced this year’s volunteer appreciation evening and the call for nominations. Individuals or groups may nominate another individual, group or organization by obtaining and completing the City of Grand Forks Nomination Form for Exceptional Volunteer Service.

The nomination forms are available at the front counter at City Hall and also via our City’s website at: http://www.city.grandforks.bc.ca/index.php/2012/06/26/callfor-nominations-for-volunteer-of-the-city/.

Returned, fully completed forms can be either dropped off in person, mailed to: City of Grand Forks, P.O. Box 220, Grand Forks, BC, V0H 1H0 or emailed to: info@grandforks.ca as a PDF format.

Completed forms must be returned to City Hall by 4:00 pm on August 24th, 2012.

THE EVENT:

This year’s event is scheduled for: Thursday, October 11th, 2012 Grand Forks Art Gallery (Heritage Courthouse) on Central Avenue 6:00pm to 8:00pm Refreshments will be served.

The Volunteer(s) who are the recipients for this year’s Certificate of Merit will be honoured at the evening event. In addition, Mayor, Council and the City of Grand Forks are extending the invitation to attend the festivities to all of our community’s volunteers to this year’s recognition evening. Many of our community events and programs would not be possible if it weren’t for those individuals and organizations who donate their selfless time, involvement and efforts through the year.

Fire Truck Replacement

Grand Forks Fire Rescue is due for replacement of their 1992 E-One Superior 50 foot Aerial Ladder Truck. The Ladder Truck is 20 years old and is due for replacement in 2013 as it is ending its service life. In a consultant’s report from 2011, the recommendation is to replace it with a 100 foot platform ladder truck.

There are many reasons for the need to replace the existing ladder truck with a 100 foot platform truck. There are a growing number of seniors residing in many apartments in the community. The platform ladder truck will increase accessibility and safety in rescue operations in the event of fire in these facilities. The new Silver Kettle assisted living complex that is being constructed has a large overall footprint. The 100 foot reach of the platform is necessary for rescue and firefighting operations to be performed safely and efficiently.

Industry in the community is expanding and must be encouraged to continue. Having the ability to protect their investment and reduce the risk of loss supports investment and attracts other industry to the community.

The Fire Underwriters insurance grade rating requires a front line pumper (meaning a fire engine with a rated pump, to be 15 years old or newer) within an 8 km response area to respond to first alarms. If the age of the pumper is beyond 15 years, the insurance grade rating for the municipality may be lowered. A result of a lower grade rating would be increased fire insurance costs.

The current front line pumper at the City Fire Hall will be 15 years old next year. The new ladder truck purchase would satisfy this requirement and allow the extended use of the current front line pumper to be used as a reserve pumper until the age of 20 years. The purchase of a fire engine is a long term investment. When a fire engine is purchased it is with the needs of the community in mind for the next 20 years.

The purchase of a 100 foot platform ladder truck will ensure sufficient protection while enhancing growth in the community for the next two decades.
