❚ WASTE COLLECTION

City set to raise garbage rates CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Grand Forks residents will see an increase in monthly garbage fees by a dollar in the next billing period. City councilors approved Bylaw 1927, the residential garbage collection rates and regulations amendment bylaw, on Sept. 4 in response to the increase of tipping fees and the new green bin program. “We were going to have to look at the rates anyway because the landfill tipping fees have gone up,” explained Lynne Burch, Grand Forks’ chief administrative officer. “We also had to look into accommodating the green bin but it’s a very minimal increase.” The residential garbage collection service will go from $9 per month, or $108 per year for each dwelling unit, to $10 per month or $120 per year. Residential dwelling, by definition in the bylaw, means single family dwellings, duplexes, triplexes, row houses, townhouses, gated communities and manufactured home parks in Grand Forks. The changes in the bylaw will change garbage collection to one bag collected every two weeks, rather that the current two bags of garbage collected every week. The

green bin will be collected every week, and yard waste collection will remain the same and be collected nine times per year. In accordance with the new green bin program, the bylaw was also amended to include the definition of “food waste recycling,” which has been changed to food scraps and other materials that are a byproduct of a plant or an animal. Food scraps include baked goods, eggs and eggshells, cheese, seafood shells, candy, fruit pits, fish bones, meat. “We had to add the definition for food scraps recycling in there so it wouldn’t be considered garbage anymore,” Burch explained. “It will be considered food scraps recycling that goes into the green bin. When we deliver the green bins, there will be information delivered to each person as they receive the green bin.” Burch noted that blue bags, used for recycling items such as plastic water bottles, would also be picked up every week with the food waste recycling green bin. Bylaw 1927 states that every owner of a residential dwelling unit should provide and maintain a container in good repair to contain the garbage. The maximum weight of one container should be 22 kilograms. If owners have an excess of the one bag limit, they must

purchase a “tag-a-bag” tag for all extra containers or bags of garbage. The tags are $3 each and can be purchased at City Hall or Overwaitea. Similarly, yard waste collection may be in a can without a lid, in a compostable paper bag or in wrapped bundles weighing a maximum of 22 kilograms. There is a maximum of three containers, bags or bundles for yard waste. For each bundle of tree prunings, it must be three inches (7.6 centimetres) in diameter or less and three feet long (91 cm). It shouldn’t exceed the equivalent of the size of a garbage can. The next yard waste collection will occur on Oct. 22 on the north side of Highway 3 between Riverside Drive and North Fork Road, Oct. 23 in the Ruckle addition and Valley Heights area, and Oct. 26 on the south side of Highway 3, between Riverside Drive and Spraggett Road. The new rates take effect during the next billing period in October, and the green bin program will begin on Oct. 1. The green bins will be delivered to residents in Grand Forks in the week prior to October. To find out when your garbage and recycling pick-up dates are, visit www.city.grandforks.bc.ca or www.rdkb. com, or call 1-877-447-9265.

SAFETY AT HOME

- Dryer Fires and How Most homes have a clothes dryer and with our modern lives we couldn’t be without it, but did you know dryers are a leading cause of household fires. One of the most common causes of dryer fires is a lack of proper maintenance. When lint traps aren’t cleaned out after every load the resulting build up in the screen or other areas can cause the dryer to perform poorly, operate at elevated temperature and possibly overheat. Vent systems need to be checked and cleaned to maintain proper airflow for these same reasons. Other causes of dryer fires are putting clothes, rugs or shoes that should not be put in the dryer. When in doubt check the washing instructions on the tag or on the manufactures website, and never ever put clothing in the dryer that has been soiled with flammable materials.

1947 Mrs. Nellie Johnson, who from 1936 until recently, operated the Silver Birch Auto Cabins at Christina Lake, passed away here at the age of 64. 1952 Three fires declared by police to be of incendiary origin, occurred in the district over four days, resulting in thousands of dollars damage. 1957 Crime appeared to be on the downgrade as city council received a report that fines collected during the month of August amounted to only $265. 1962 A tent city sprang up on the farm of Bill Podovinikoff in Almond Gardens as some 750 Freedomites camped there prior to making their trek to Agassiz. 1967 The plane carrying Steve Antifaev and J.E. Matser, which was lost on a flight from Langley to Grand Forks, was found south of the U.S. by two hunters. 1972 The Christina Lake Hotel was destroyed by fire early Sept. 13. The adjoining dance pavilion and storage shed at the rear of the building were saved. 1977 City council agreed to have a rough draft prepared of an agreement to lease city land to the Grand Forks Curling Club so it can proceed with plans to put up a new curling rink. 1982 A cougar that carried off a pet dog from a camp at Christina Lake on Aug. 29, is no longer in the vicinity, says cougar hunter Jim Zibin.

Pet of the Week

1987 Estimates are that close to 3,000 people were attracted by the exhibits and entertainment at the 33rd annual fall fair in Grand Forks on Saturday. 1992 The West Kootenay Rotary Club and the USCC loaded four truck containers of medical supplies, equipment, clothing and food for people in Russia. 1997 After adding a question on casino gambling to the Oct. 18 referendum on the airport upgrade, council adds another on whether to allow tax exemption on land and improvements at Golden Heights. 2002 Last Thursday was the first Thursday night that everyone knew was coming. It was the first real four-day week of the school calendar, the first time students throughout the district had Fridays free. So what happened? Grand Forks RCMP had “a Friday night” on Thursday. It was one of the busiest nights in recent weeks. The bulk of the calls were youth-associated, police said. 2007 A routine police road block near Midway on Sept. 13 turned into a $1.5-million-dollar drug bust when West Kootenay Highway Patrol identified two suspicious vehicles headed east. RCMP deployed Kelowna based police service dogs. Three men from Surrey, all known to police, were arrested and appeared in court in Penticton on Friday.

To keep you and your family safe: • Ensure that your dryer has ﬂexible metal air duct, that is not bent or pinched, and is free from lint and debris. • Clean the lint screen after every use. • Have a professional come in and service your machine periodially.

Piche court date delayed CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Sentencing for Allen Piche, a.k.a. the Bear Dude, over alleged production and possession of marijuana has been delayed until Thursday, Oct. 16. Piche and his ex-wife Kathleen Wickie were charged with growing and possessing marijuana for the purpose of trafficking on their property at Christina Lake after RCMP West Kootenay Traffic Service found over 1,000 marijuana plants while executing a search warrant in July 2010. Neither Piche nor Wickie have entered a plea on the drug charges.

Piche and Wickie were supposed to have their sentencing hearing on Sept. 10 but Crown Counsel was awaiting submissions from the court in Grand Forks and changed the sentencing to the Oct. 16 date. Piche was recently fined $6,900 for feeding dangerous wildlife but will not face any jail time – he was charged with two counts under The Wildlife Act. For those charges, he was fined $3,500, with a provincial surcharge of $525 for one case, and also $2,500, with a surcharge of $375 for the other.

❚ Our View

Youth sport good for the long-term While education is an extremely important factor in a child’s life, the value of sport and play should not be understated either. According to Health Canada’s website, the obesity rate among children and youth in Canada has tripled over the past 25 years and with the amount of sugar in foods and the sedentary lifestyles that Nintendo Wii, Xbox360 or PlayStation 3 can bring, it’s easy to see why. Diet, of course, plays a factor in helping children maintain a healthy weight but sports and extracurricular activities that promote active lifestyles are important as well. To that end, two Saturdays from now (Sept. 29) will be Sports Day in Canada, which is a national celebration of all levels of sport, whether it be children playing in community sports or athletes in high-level competition. The Sports Day in Canada website says that the event is an opportunity to celebrate the power of sport to build community and strengthen national spirit and more importantly, to help ensure a lifestyle that is healthy. A healthy lifestyle is beneficial to both the young and old but if the foundation is laid at a young age, it will be beneficial, as the elements of that lifestyle – being active and having a proper diet – will be engrained. While Sports Day in Canada is on Sept. 29, there will be a jersey day on Wednesday, Sept. 26 and people and students across the area will be asked to donate $2 in support of local sport – proceeds will remain in the community. A Public Health Agency of Canada and Canadian Institute of Health Information report on obesity that was released in June 2011 said that one in four adults are obese, while the economic costs linked to obesity (based on diseases related to obesity) in 2008 were estimated to be $4.6 billion. The toonie contributed on Sept. 26 is for local sport and local sport is a great way for children to be active and with an active lifestyle, the obesity rates among children are sure to decline. And if there is a decline in children, eventually obesity will decline amongst adults as well.

Following Terry Fox’s example This past weekend was the running of the 32nd annual Terry Fox Run in Grand Forks, where residents gathered together to run, walk or cycle the eight-kilometre route to raise funds for cancer research. Since his journey across Canada in 1980, Terry Fox has become a Canadian icon for hope, perseverance, strength and determination. His effort and willpower has turned into a worldwide legacy and has become a powerhouse fundraiser. Whenever I participate in a run, this one in particular, it reminds me of those many photographs that capture his pained face as he continued to run, despite his pain. It is the hard determination in his eyes that contrasted immensely against his limping gait, tightly pressed lips and clenched fists that reveal the fighter in him and his persis-

tence and drive. I am healthy and able and I won’t give up when I struggle because he didn’t. There are now many, many organizations that have walks or marathons to raise funds for a cause, from cancer to multiple sclerosis, or lupus to Alzheimer’s. In a world of over seven billion people, everybody has, is or will be affected by one disease or another. It can be someone close or a distant friend. Sometimes people are blindsided by a diagnosis, and other times its unfortunately genetic. There really is no telling who it will affect and in turn, ripple

out and touch others. Though some may disparage on donating to big charities and wonder where the money is going (and I do agree, to a degree), don’t forget what the cause is for and the reason behind why it was created. It’s a moment of solidarity for the people who have fought against a disease – some who have won, some who have not. It’s for those who have lost a loved one and to remember and connect with others. It’s a reminder of the fragility of human life and how we’re ultimately quite similar to one another. It’s also a moment to reflect on the courage and strength of the individuals and supportive family and friends throughout a trying journey. Take heart and stay positive because negativity will get you nowhere.

LETTERS ❚ AIR SHOW

Kudos from COPA 62 for support Editor: On Aug. 26, Grand Forks’ airport was a hive of activity in a Grand Forks Flying Association event. There were 21 aircraft from southern B.C. and Alberta that came to sample Grand Forks’ hospitality. The Grand Forks Elks cooked up their special brand of pancake breakfasts, enjoyed by a large crowd of approximately 300. Other local vendors provided goodies throughout the day. The antique car club proudly displayed its vehicles and the motorcycle club did the same. A display of fold up bikes attracted lots of attention. The model aircraft owners wowed the crowd with their amazing performances. The Grand Forks Flying Association was presented with its new COPA 62 certificate from W. T. (Tim) Cole, the B.C. and Yukon Canadian Owners and Pilots Association (COPA) representative. It was the first fly-In for the new association and following such a successful program another one has been planned for next year on Aug. 25. Other flying programs are also being planned for the local young people. So many sponsors and volunteers made the event such a success. On behalf of the Grand Forks Flying Association, we wish to heartily thank: • Co-ordinator Chantel Lovegrove, who did an outstanding job • The many volunteers • The antique car club • The model aircraft club Major sponsors were Extra

Foods and Bill Gillespie. Other contributors were ABH Car Sales, West End Grocery. Thank you all. Ann Gordon, president Grand Forks Flying Association

❚ FIRST RESPONDERS

Fire crews impressive in battling blaze Editor: Re: Fire contained off of Brown Creek Road East (story, Sept. 5 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette) Gazette) Thank you to the Grand Forks fire department and B.C. forest fire crew. It was a moving day out at Brown Creek when lo and behold, the acreage around our trailer was accidentally set ablaze. We had brought one load out and left our two cats while we went back in to drive the U-Haul out. On the way out, I noticed a plume of smoke in our general area and thought, “Uh oh, that doesn’t look good.” Meanwhile, fire trucks came screaming beside us. When we arrived, sure enough it was our place. I was very emotional about my cats. A wonderful, tall Grand Forks firefighter came over with bottles of water for my husband and I and helped to calm me, as I was beside myself with worry about my cats and I didn’t know at this point if our trailer was gone. Next thing, the fire bombers came in with acrobatic precision and dropped fire retardant over the blaze behind or trailer. A helicopter with a water bladder was put to use. It was all so precise, quick and professional. In a short time, we were able to return the next day to move in. For five days, a cleanup crew of six from

❚ OPINION Valhalla Forest Fire service did a magnificent job of patrolling the perimeter of the 22 acres to put out hot spots. They were polite and considerate. I feel very confident and safe with the excellent job done by the Grand Forks and B.C. forest fire crews. No wonder B.C. is called on from other provinces and elsewhere, as its calibre of expertise and professionalism is so evident. Thank you again so much. June, Eddie Michell and pets, Grand Forks

❚ ANIMAL CARE

Condition concerns for animals Editor: In recent months I have passed through Grand Forks on two occasions and driven by what could be described as an animal compound. I have observed animals, particularly horses, kept in what I consider to be appalling and unacceptable conditions. In June, some of these horses were standing up to their shins in muck. It was pouring rain and there was no evidence of shelter – it was a record cold and wet spring. August just passed with heat wave conditions, and I have once again observed no shelter or shade and alpacas and goats standing in the Kettle River, presumably to cool down. I have a problem with this both morally and environmentally. Surely, the community of Grand Forks does not accept the conditions under which these animals are kept and have grave concerns about the contamination of the Kettle River from this operation.

In an effort to convince Canadians that the deal will be good for them, various politicians fanned out across Canada in late-April to meet with workers, business and community leaders and stakeholders across the country to highlight the wide range of benefits that the agreement will bring to people, no matter where they live. High on the list of touted benefits of the agreement are the jobs it will provide and the money that will flow into Canadian coffers. We must keep in mind that the promises made by the federal government about what CETA will bring by way of benefits are pure conjecture. The Honourable Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway told a meeting of the Economic Club of Canada on April 27 that “A trade agreement with Europe is by far the most ambitious trade initiative in our nation’s history, with the potential to be broader in scope and deeper in ambition than the historic North American Free Trade Agreement. Whether you are a fisherman, farmer, manufacturer or high-tech worker, the benefits of an ambitious agreement to you, your family and your community will be real and significant.” What more could we want as Canadians but the jobs and the security CETA might bring? Different benefits for Canadians are being highlighted, depending on where they live. The sale of manufacture goods will provide jobs in Newfoundland; fish products preparation will provide the jobs in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, Manitobans will benefit from the export of grain and pulse. Fish, seafood and renewable energy will bring jobs to British Columbia. The fossil fuel industry will provide the jobs in Alberta. It is said that CETA will be beneficial to “hard working Canadians and Europeans alike.” However, the devil is in the details and the government is keeping those details secret. Numbers are being provided but can we trust them when their validity has been questioned by a joint Canada-EU economic assessment group? A study determined that Canada’s trade deficit would grow by at least $8 billion with the signing of CETA and jobs would actually disappear if there were a deficit. According to one study, the loss of jobs would be in the order of between 23,000 and 150,000. Municipal councils across the country are nervous about CETA and its impact on their operations and they have notified the federal government that they want to be excluded from the agreement because of the procurement and policy restrictions that would undermine their local autonomy and spending powers. Grand Forks recently passed a bylaw to that effect. Canadians don’t like CETA and the EU doesn’t appear happy with it either. It’s now projected that a final draft will be signed some time this fall so we can be sure that Stephen Harper’s negotiators have been given instructions to get a deal signed. The EU is home to the world’s biggest private companies that are involved in managing drinking water, transit and other municipal services such as sewage disposal. These companies would like to be operating in Canada and CETA opens the door to them. If they get a foothold in Canada it will be next to impossible to get rid of them. CETA should be about trade, but it is also about foreign control and that is why municipal governments must pay close attention. – Roy Ronaghan is a columnist for the Grand Forks Gazette

School District 51 (SD51) school board trustees discussed class sizes and new initiatives during their first school board meeting of the year on Sept. 11. Class sizes large in Christina Lake Two classes at Christina Lake Elementary School are at or over the maximum student limit. Large class sizes have not been much of an issue with the schools in SD51, as most fall under the mandatory provincial limit of 30 students and below. The Grade 6/7 class has 31 students, while the Grade 4/5 class is at 30 students. SD51 Superintendent of Schools Michael Strukoff noted that they would address the issue of large class sizes using the tools prescribed in Bill 22, the Education Improvement Act. Student head count SD51 saw a drop in 78 students throughout the district, with fewer students enrolled in the West Boundary than expected. Jeanette Hanlon, SD51 secretary-treasurer, noted that the numbers are expected to change over the next few months, but the drop in numbers is worrisome. Public Forums SD51 will be holding follow-up public forums to discuss the issue of district redesign on Oct. 1 and Oct. 2. The forums will discuss the finances and information gathered from previous forums and the possibilities of middle schools, as well as provincial education initiatives such as the Erase Bullying program and graduation program review. The West Boundary forum will take place at Boundary Central Secondary School on Oct. 1 at 6:30 p.m., while the East Boundary forum will occur at Perley Elementary School on Oct. 2 at 6:30 p.m. District above average in FSA results Results for this year’s Foundational Skills Assessment (FSA) for School District 51 (SD51) Grade 4 and 7 students reveal overall marks above provincial averages in reading, writing and mathematics. The overall assessment of Grade 4 students in SD51 revealed that for the writing portion, 72 per cent of students met or exceeded expectations. Numeracy for Grade 4 students averaged at 68 per cent, while literacy saw a drop to 64 per cent, which is below the provincial average of 72 per cent. The participation rates for Grade 4 students was at 88 per cent. The overall assessment of Grade 7 students in reading skills saw 75 per cent of students meet or exceed expectations,

which is above the 64 per cent provincial average, while writing skills were also above provincial average at 83 per cent who met or exceeded expectations. Summer updates to schools Maintenance, custodian and technology departments worked throughout the summer to prepare the schools around the district for a new school year. New roofing was done at Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) and Hutton Elementary School, while the gym floors across the district were resurfaced. Some updates include a new paint job in the main entrance, gym, office corridors and band room, along with new flooring in these areas in GFSS. The exterior of GFSS was also repainted. At Hutton and Christina Lake Elementary School, the wood sliding was replaced with metal sliding, and Boundary Central Secondary School (BCSS) parking lot was also paved. Within the technology department, new hardware and computers were upgraded in several schools. The new phone system, VOIP (voice over internet protocol) was also completed at BCSS, Perley and Hutton. The next school board meeting is on Tuesday, Oct. 9 at 6 p.m. at the Boundary Learning Centre.

LITERACY

Family literacy: learning together and growing strong together COLUMBIA BASIN ALLIANCE FOR LITERACY Submitted

Early literacy development begins the moment a child is born. Every touch, word and image helps to build the skills needed for children to become lifelong learners. Every child deserves the opportunity to succeed in whatever endeavour they choose and it is every parent’s wish to have their child grow to become a confident and resilient adult. The Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) recognizes that parents are the first and most important teachers in a child’s life and demonstrates that commitment by investing resources into community programming across the Columbia Basin. CBAL reaches across the region, delivering and supporting programs that focus on providing parents and caregivers with the tools and knowledge needed to support their children’s physical, cognitive and social and emotional development. In Valemount, Play and Learn is offered to families with preschool children. Participants discover ways to support emerging literacy skills through songs, stories, rhymes, sign language, crafts and everyday teaching opportunities, while children engage in facilitated, creative play. The connection a parent has with a child is unmistakable and programs such as Play and Learn build on that connection to enhance the development of early literacy skills. By the time a child starts Kindergarten, they may know the alphabet, be familiar with the letters in their own names and even begin to recognize simple words. These skills are key milestones and family literacy programs, such as Parent-Child Mother Goose, Love 2 Learn and Alphabet

Soup, aim to help further develop these skills. Once a child enters school, parents want to be supportive as their children develop and acquire new knowledge and skills. CBAL offers a number of family literacy programs designed to support this specific age group. In Revelstoke, and other communities across the Columbia Basin, Parents as Literacy Supporters (PALS) has been offered in partnership with school districts. “PALS gives families a chance to connect with their Kindergarten teacher, and provides information, ideas, strategies and activities that can be used at home. PALS is a wonderful opportunity to bring together parents, teachers, and community as partners to support young chil-

dren’s learning,” says Tracy Spannier, community literacy co-ordinator in Revelstoke. Take time to attend a family literacy program in your community. Visit your local library, family centre or visit www.cbal.org to learn more about family literacy programs in your community. On Wednesday, Oct. 10 support literacy in your community by taking part in Black Press and CBAL’s ReachA-Reader campaign. Buy your local newspaper from a volunteer, who will be out on the town and all proceeds raised will go to support literacy programs in your community. By learning together we will grow strong together.

Reach A Reader Wednesday, October 10

The Grand Forks Gazette and the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy are partnering on a great event for Grand Forks. On October 10, between 11 am and 5:30 pm, there will be several locations around town - Overwaitea, Jogas and The Gazette ofﬁce - where copies of the newspaper will be available by donation. Absolutely all funds raised from the day will go towards CBAL and all funds will stay in the community in which they are raised to support literacy programs in our community.

Spotlight Films presenting We Have a Pope SPOTLIGHT FILMS Submitted

On Tuesday, Sept. 25 Spotlight Films will be presenting We Have a Pope a.k.a. Habemus Papam. This entertaining farce opens with 108 cardinals gathered in the Sistine Chapel to elect a new pope after the demise of the recent one. The camera pans individual faces, each encumbered with a similar thought, that it not be them. In the end the well-liked but unlikely Cardinal Melville (Michel Piccoli, a prolific veteran of many a fine Euro flick) makes the final cut. He is terrified at the prospect. As the Swiss Guard, the Vatican spokesman and senior cardinal take their positions on the balcony overlooking St. Peter’s Square, where the anticipating masses have gathered, a howl is heard and the introduction halted as all eyes turn to Melville with his face buried in his hands uttering that he simply can’t do it and begs forgiveness.

Since refusal of God’s will is not an option, the Vatican urges Melville to take a little rest and calls on the services of Italy’s best psychiatrist ... and atheist (Nanni Moretti, who also directed We Have a Pope and co-wrote it with Francesco Piccolo). Melville soon slips away and melts into the streets of Rome. The film intersperses scenes of Melville’s wanderings with the action at the Vatican, where captive shrink and cardinals are left to their own devices that evolve into arguments over the menu, the rules of bridge and even the composition of volleyball teams. With the psychiatrist as catalyst, the cardinals are likely experiencing more fun than they can remember. This comedy/drama has some reasonably good gags and some low key slapstick says Roger Ebert. We Have a Pope will be shown at 7:30 p.m. at the Gem Theatre in Grand Forks Spotlight Films would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors and patrons.

Opportunities for Aboriginals in the Boundary

CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Aboriginals in the Boundary gathered for an evening to learn about available opportunities at the Glanville Family Centre on Sept. 13. Hosted by the Boundary Métis Community Association (BMCA) and the Boundary All Nations Aboriginal Council (BANAC), the evening introduced local groups within the area that offered various opportunities for Aboriginals in the Boundary. Laranna Androsoff, Aboriginal family support worker with the Boundary Family and Individual Services Society (BFISS), explained that they hoped to promote a mix of Aboriginal based programs, including traditional parenting and cultural programs. “In 1995, about three per cent of students in the school district claimed Aboriginal ancestry,” she explained. “Today, there has been an increase of 25 per cent, 350 students, claim Aboriginal status. The increase in Aboriginal status isn’t about more Aboriginal people moving into the Boundary but because of them claiming their status because they are proud of who they are.” Joanie Holmes, president of BANAC, noted that the group was formed to increase voting amongst Aboriginals and to make it more inclusive. “We need a lot of help and we need a lot of help for Aboriginal people to succeed,” Holmes

said. “We need to work together, play together and laugh together.” There are monthly meetings for BANAC on the second Thursday of every month at 7 p.m. at the Glanville Centre with an upcoming annual general meeting to be announced. Danny Williamson, president of BMCA, hopes to involve more youth with community driven events and to gain more volunteers through the year. “We need to get back to our roots and get connected,” he added. “There are youth grants available for students who want to go to school and a bunch of opportunities available.” Willamson also pointed out the meetings for the Métis association are every third Thursday of every month at 7 p.m. at Selkirk College. School District 51 (SD51) director of instruction Maxine Ruzicka also provided an overview from the Aboriginal Education team and explained the renewal of the Aboriginal Enhancement Agreement. The Boundary Aboriginal people are comprised of First Nations, Inuit and Métis ancestry, and stretches from Christina Lake up to Big White and Bridesville. A historical area, the Boundary was known as a location for passing through, camping and hunting for the Aboriginal people. For more information, contact Androsoff at 250-442-8820 ext. 149.

Persuading children to eat more fruit and vegetables

Making mealtimes playful can mean healthier eating for your kids. Here are some fun, creative ways to add more fruit and vegetables to your child’s diet: ➦ Top a bowl of whole grain cereal with a smiley face: banana slices for eyes, raisins for nose, peach or apple slice for mouth. ➦ Create a food collage. Use broccoli Æorets for trees, carrots and celery for Æowers, cauliÆower for clouds, and a yellow squash for a sun. Then eat your masterpiece! ➦ Make frozen fruit kabobs for kids using pineapple chunks, bananas, grapes, and berries. ➦ Go food shopping with your children. Let them see all the different fruits and vegetables and have them pick out new ones to try. ➦ Try fruit smoothies for a quick healthy breakfast or afternoon snack. ➦ Add vegetables and fruits to baked goods – blueberry pancakes, zucchini bread, carrot mufÅns. ➦ Add extra veggies to soups, stews, and sauces, grated or shredded to make them blend in. ➦ Keep lots of fresh fruit and veggies washed and available as snacks. Apples, pears, bananas, grapes, Ågs, carrot and celery sticks are all easy to eat on the run. Add yogurt, nut butter, or tahini for extra – from helpguide.org protein. Success By 6 supports parents and communities in creating healthy, nurturing environments for our youngest children, so that by age 6, they are physically, socially, and emotionally ready to succeed in school. The goal of Success By 6 is to better the lives of our Boundary area children in our families and enhancing our communities.

A Chin Up – read it on page 4

❚ GOLF

Fifty years for Christina Lake golf course Established in 1962, the golf course at Christina Lake is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Kevin Maffioli, Christina Lake Golf Club general manager (GM) said that there was a group of individuals that originally got together and purchased $100 shares. “Johnny Goffinet was the man that spear-headed it and he was actually the founder of Johnny’s Motel in (Grand Forks), so he ran Johnny’s Motel and then he decided to have a golf course in the Grand Forks and Christina Lake area,” Maffioli explained, adding that the course was started on what was originally the Ball ranch. While the course started out with just nine holes, work began to expand the course to include another nine in 1983, with land donated by the provincial government and the course was designed by renowned architect Les Furber – the new 18-hole course opened in May of 1986. The GM of the golf club said that it has been a community effort to have a course such as the Christina Lake Golf Club’s. “It’s a non-profit society now. In 1977 all the people that purchased $100 shares actually relinquished their share rights and made it into a society and from that point on, it’s been board run, with a nine-person board of directors, and they

come off the membership of 400 people and everything goes back into the golf course,” he explained. “It’s a pretty solid non-profit society and we just keep moving forward and progressing.” Maffioli pointed to the club’s next big project, which is replacing the existing irrigation on the original nine holes. “As we go, we just keep improving,” he reiterated. When it comes to unique features, the black sand in the sand traps at Christina Lake Golf Club aren’t only rare in courses in the Kootenays, it is rare across the continent as well. “We’re the only golf course in B.C. that has black sand. There’s one in Alberta, three in the United States that use (it). We use it from Pacific Abrasives,

who graciously donate the material to the Christina Lake Golf Club, as a corporate sponsor,” Maffioli said, adding that it makes the holes look interesting. “It really brings out a lot of the hole when you see that black and it’s a stark contrast to the green grass and when you’re ball’s in it, the white ball just shows up immediately when you’re in the black bunker,” he said. With its course, the Christina Lake Golf Club is host to a number of local tournaments and has hosted some notables throughout the years too, including the recent BC Golf women’s amateur and mid-amateur championships. “We’ve held a lot of big events. In terms of events we run every year, Christina Lake runs the largest men’s open in the province with 240 players coming from B.C., Alberta and Washington. Our senior men’s open is 160 players with a huge waiting list and our ladies’ open is the best-attended ladies’ open in the Kootenay region,” Maffioli said. As for his thoughts about being around for 50 years, the general manager of the Christina Lake Golf Club said that it is a testament to the members that have come before as well as current members. “The community as a whole, having a golf course and facility that is like this, in a small town in rural British Columbia, is just a testament to the whole community, that it has gone and progressed. It’s become one of the better places to play in the province,” Maffioli said.

Border Bruins beat defending KIJHL champs on Sept. 15 KARL YU Gazette Editor

Despite losing 5-0 to the Beaver Valley Nitehawks the night before, the Grand Forks Border Bruins rebounded to win 3-2 in OT against those same Nitehawks on Sept. 15. The second of a home-and-home series to start the 2012/13 Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) season, the Border Bruins played much better on the road, getting a pair of goals from forward Kublai Barlas in regulation time, and the OT winner from Midway product Chris Osellame, on the power play, at 3:05 in the extra frame. Sharon, Ont. product Robert Dunsmuir started his first game of the season and stopped 44 of 46 shots fired his way. The win is something the team can build on said Nick Deschenes, the Border Bruins’ head coach. “It’s early and it’s important to have some type of success to draw on early in the season,” Deschenes explained. “The fact that the boys were very responsive to what we put in place, as a coaching staff and were able to apply it, along with some timely goaltending, we were able to (set) our gameplan and we got the result we were looking for, so it was nice.” With Dunsmuir hailing from the eastern part of the country, there are a lot of adjustments he will have to make but Deschenes said that Dunsmuir flashed his potential in the win. “I think this is only a snapshot of what his ability will be in this league. He’s settling in now and he’s a pretty highly-touted goaltender,” the

Border Bruins’ head coach said. While the team did get the win, it also managed to allow 46 shots on net while only firing 22 in the direction of Beaver Valley goalie Dominic Stadnyk but Deschenes said that shots aren’t always the best indicator in a game. “A lot of times in hockey, you’ll outshoot an opponent and you won’t get the results on the scoreboard. What I’m more concerned about is not so much the shots on net but the types of shots, scoring chances against and for – I think it’s a more telling stat,” Deschenes explained. “For our team to go into Beaver Valley, the defending (KIJHL) champions, in their home opener, after losing 5-0 the night before, and to put that kind of effort forward and to come out with a win, I think shows the type of character in the room.” Dylan Quinn, the Border Bruins’ other goalie, allowed five goals in Friday night’s opener but he couldn’t be faulted on all of the goals and is the team’s MVP from last season. Deschenes didn’t want to say who would start in Grand Forks’ next game, against the Nelson Leafs tomorrow night (Thursday, Sept. 20) at Grand Forks Arena. “Both goaltenders are good kids and they’re probably going to compete and push each other to be better and that’s going to help our team overall,” Deschenes said on Sunday. Following Thursday night’s game, the Border Bruins will host the Creston Valley Thunder Cats on Friday, Sept. 21 – the puck drops at 7:30 p.m. for both games.

‘Stationary’ running good LILLY BRYANT Grand Forks Recreation

There are a number of different benefits that an individual can gain from running on a regular basis. There are some runners who run simply for the joy of running but there are others who run because they realize there are a great deal of benefits, which can be gained. Some of these benefits may include weight loss, improved cardiovascular health, improved bone health, improved mood and better co-ordination. Those who are looking to lose a few pounds often find running to be one of the most effective forms of exercise for helping them to achieve their ideal body weight. Running is an excellent form of exercise that can help with weight loss because it requires a great deal of energy. This energy requirement means the body burns a large number of calories while running. The simplest formula for weight loss includes burning off more calories than the individual consumes. When this type of calorie deficit is created, the body begins to shed excess weight in the form of fat. In order to lose one pound of body weight, the body must create a calorie deficit of 3,500 calories. This is equal to burning 500 calories per day. Most runners can easily burn

off this many calories in less than one hour of exercise. Grand Forks Recreation (GFREC) has scheduled the scenic Station-toStation five and 10-km run for the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 25 at 5:30 p.m. starting and finishing at the Station Pub. You can register for the five-km run or make it a challenge and complete the 10-km scenic loop. This loop will take you up and over Observation Mountain using the old rail grade and trails. The Kettle River Runners will be on site to offer information about their weekly group runs. The Station Pub will be providing a special prawn night following the event. Border Bruins players will be out on the routes encouraging you along the way, assisting with the traffic control and water stations. *** We are now taking registrations for the free senior luncheon being held at the Seniors’ Centre in City Park on Thursday, Oct. 4. Seating times are 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and you must call and register prior to the luncheon date. This luncheon is solely sponsored by Copper Fields Development, which is a sustainable Grand Forks Community group. To register for the Station to Station five-km and 10-km run, please give GFREC a call at 250-442-2202 or email us at gfplay@rdkb.com.

Over the next three years, a series of ecosystem restoration programs within the Boundary area will be completed through a $244,000 grant from the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation (HCTF). In co-operation with local staff from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Operations (MFLNRO), the grant aims to support local restoration programs for a number of low elevation habitats. Lisa Tedesco, habitat biologist under the resource stewardship for MFLNRO, noted they would be targeting the grasslands and open forests around the Boundary. “Because we’ve been excluding wildfire for so many years, the habitats have started to grow in with more trees than we would normally find there,” she said. “That changes the habitats for the species that we’d usually find there. We’re trying to restore things back to some degree.” Tedesco noted that the plan is to remove the overgrown plants and trees in specific areas and revert the habitats to a more open grassland scenario to improve the habitats for the wildlife species and native plant species. In the first year, they will be targeting three sites: one in Grand Forks, near the Gilpin Grasslands, Midway and Rock Creek. “The one in Grand Forks is out for bids for companies that remove grass and proposals right now and we’re looking to start the work in mid

to late September,” said Tedesco. “The other two sites will start late fall to early winter when the ground is frozen.” The work to remove the growth will be completed by contractors or the forest licensed operators who already have tenure over the area. “There are some places where there is merchantable timber available, so they get to go in and do that,” she explained. “Then we’ll have a contract crew go in afterward and remove any of the smaller trees that they weren’t interested in taking.” Tedesco pointed out that the project would be working with local community groups, including the Grand Forks Wildlife Association, the Granby Wilderness Society, and the Boundary Weed Management Committee. “It’s really become a community effort, and it’s not just me saying this is the best site so let’s do it here,” she said. “We’re really trying to work with the community groups so if people are interested, get involved with those groups. We’re going to work on picking sites for the future. Whenever we pick a site we try to pick one that will benefit the most for the species and cover as much area as possible.” Most of the work in the areas will be done through the late fall, winter and early spring season, while monitoring of the area will occur during the summer. “The hope is that we can turn this into a longterm program,” concluded Tedesco, who hopes this project will also increase the level of community interest.
