Tabletree juice best in world

BY LORNE ECKERSLEY Advance Staff

TODAY'S WEATHER

Creston Valley orchardists Gary and Susan Snow capped a surreal month on Oct. 10 by accepting an award for making the world’s best pure juice at an industry conference in Barcelona, Spain.

Tabletree black cherry juice had bested the other finalist for the award, Nudie Juice, the largest juice producer in Australia.

“WE WON!!!” Susan Snow reacted on Facebook following the awards ceremony.

“We are bringing home the gold. We are so excited. We actually have the ‘Best Pure Juice in the World.’

“Wow, how cool is that. Makes us cry all over. I really did blubber when we got it. It is so unreal…like a dream. Not sure what the fallout will be from this.

We are crossing our fingers and our toes.”

Not much more than a month ago, when a sleepy Susan answered the telephone at 6 a.m., her first thought was that the caller was pulling some sort of prank.

Eventually, Gary urged her to take a message and promise to return the call. They soon learned that the World Juice Award nomination was legitimate. The World Juice Awards are handed out annually at a conference sponsored by a leading industry magazine, FoodNews. It attracts hundreds of the most important juice industry players in the world.

GIRLS BEAT BOYS — The Prince Charles Secondary School senior girls volleyball team beat the Creston Valley Thunder Cats four games to one in Monday night’s fundraising event. The Creston RCMP, including Staff Sgt. Bob Gollan (left), served more than 100 hamburgers before the games.

Snows’ ‘heads are spinning’ From page 1 Tabletree black cherry juice, the couple’s first foray into adding value to their late season cherry crop, began after a lengthy research period during which they developed a proprietary process that enhances the juice flavours with honey and cinnamon. An innovation award from the B.C. government helped get them up and running, but a lack of capital has slowed planned expansion.

The couple decided to travel to Barcelona to attend the conference, also arranging to make a visit to Dijon, France, where scientists are studying the antiinflammatory properties of Tabletree black cherry juice.

The Snows got an early taste that they had entered an entirely different world in Barcelona when they were unexpectedly invited into a marketing workshop when they were on their way to a day of sightseeing.

“So there’s me in my ball cap and running shoes,” Gary said in a CBC Radio interview.

“We both looked like Creston farmers,” Susan added.

Attending the conference were 350 representatives from 60 countries.

Gary said that his sense of calm that came with having a 50-50 chance to win

the award against only one other finalist dissipated as the announcement neared.

“My stomach was just turning over,” he said.

Luckily, the awards ceremony was short and sweet. It became all the sweeter when the underdog, a company that Gary described as “by far the smallest at the conference,” Tabletree, was announced the winner.

“I cried, of course,” Susan said. “Now the world knows about Tabletree and the world knows about Creston and it knows about Canada.

“Now we’re on the world map.”

While it’s far too early to project just what the award and the attention might mean for Tabletree, Susan reports that hits on the company website have tripled.

“Our heads are spinning, I guarantee you,” Gary said.

“Now I am going to sound like a total wimp here,” said Susan. “But what is the most amazing thing in all of this is the support of all of our friends, family, and community and all the warm wishes and sharing of our great news. It is so amazing to share it all with you. Not only is it good for us, but for Creston, for Canada, and for the cherry industry. The world is waking up to the health benefits of the cherry and what our juice can do for them. We love it and we thank you all so much!”

— Not a moment too soon, crews from the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure were preparing avalanche control sites up Kootenay Pass on Oct. 18. Weather conditions are expected to be cold and snowy through the weekend.

Four-hour police standoff ends peacefully

BY LORNE ECKERSLEY Advance Staff

A four-hour standoff between Creston RCMP and a male break and enter suspect was resolved without violence on Friday evening.

“Members of the Creston RCMP were called to a report of a break and enter that had just occurred at a residence on Cook Street,” Cpl. Dan Moskaluk reported in a press release on Monday. “The suspect fled the home after being confronted by the occupants of the home.

“After fleeing the scene, members tracked the suspect to a residence on 16th Avenue North in Creston. The suspect barricaded himself inside the residence with his common law spouse and her two young children. These persons were not believed to be in danger, and were not harmed.

It is not believed that the suspect had any weapons.”

Four hours later, shortly after RCMP members had obtained a warrant to enter the residence and arrest the subject, he surrendered peacefully.

Nathan Beaudry, 34, was arrested for two counts of break and entry, breach of conditions, damage to property and uttering threats.

He was held in custody pending a court hearing scheduled for Oct. 23.

Police Beat Creston RCMP responded to 77 calls from Oct. 15-21, Staff Sgt. Bob Gollan said on Monday.

October 15 •A male who had earlier been reported missing from Creston was found deceased in Ontario.

•The eavestrough of a house on Northwest Boulevard was damaged when a motorhome drove into it.

Winemaking leads Kiwi to Creston Valley

Who: Dan Barker What: Wine Where: Baillie-Grohman Estate Winery in Erickson and Moana Park in New Zealand When: Since he finished his degree in oenology Why: “I just love it!”

BY LORNE ECKERSLEY Advance Staff

Dan Barker brings an impressive resume to his work as winemaker for Baillie-Grohman Estate Winery. The New Zealander has extensive experience in the hospitality industry, a degree in oenology and runs his own successful winery in the Hawkes Bay region of New Zealand.

Barker is the Creston Valley’s second winemaker, and second Kiwi, following in the footsteps of fellow countryman Mark Rattray, who made most of Skimmerhorn Winery and Vineyard’s wines until this fall.

Born in Takapuna on the north shore of Auckland, Barker grew up on farms, including a vineyard that his dad owned.

“I wasn’t really involved with the wine business, but grew up around wine as a kid. We always had a little glass of wine with dinner when I was a child.”

But he didn’t go straight into the wine business. His first post-secondary education was in computer science.

“I have a leaning toward the sciences, but the work was awful — sitting at a desk, working 9 to 5,” he says, sitting in the living room of his autumn quar-

ters, which are attached to the BaillieGrohman winery building.

“Then, it was on a Boxing Day, I think, that I had a Chardonnay that just blew my mind,” he recalls. “I think everyone has a moment where they think, ‘Oh my God, this stuff is magical!’ ” Eventually, his job as an information technology specialist for a company that owned “ a couple of really good restaurants”, would see him overseeing the till systems of about 100 restaurants in New Zealand.

“But I was always in the wine cellar!” he laughs. “I ended up running some of the top restaurants in Auckland.

“Then I decided, at 27, that I had to do something that I really wanted to do.

So I moved to Hawkes Bay and did my degree in oenology (wine science). I’ve never looked back, really.”

While he was working on his degree he also worked for wineries during every vintage (autumn in New Zealand, but spring in Canada).

“I thought about show judging or something else wine-related, but didn’t really expect to finish my degree,” he said.

“The amazing thing about making wine is

Lorne Eckersley

the sense of achievement. You can grow your own grapes, then it’s up to you what you want to do with them and what style you want to make. I just love it!”

Barker credits his experience in managing restaurants with giving him an advantage when he got into the winery business.

“I knew the retail end and the consumer end really well. That’s something that’s made Moana Park (the winery he owns now) a little different — we’re not confused about what our business is and I think a lot of wineries are confused about what their business is. For a lot of wineries it’s a second or retirement business and the husband wants to be the winemaker and the wife is forced into sales and marketing, or doing something that she’s not perhaps good at. So they make this wine and it sits in the cellar.

“Anyone can make wine. Selling wines is what the business is.”

Before making the jump into winery ownership, Barker worked at small and large wineries in New Zealand. While still in university, he worked with Crossroads.

“I was so green. I had my first CO2 experience (breathing straight carbon dioxide, a by-product of the fermentation process that can render a person unconscious and kill them within minutes — it’s happened here in B.C.) there. There was this lees racking tank that was conical so the lees (a sediment comprised of dead yeast cells, grape seeds and other solids) would settle into the bottom. I stuck my head in, of course. I flinched and hit my head on the back of the tank. I nearly knocked myself out. I split open the back of my head but I pulled myself out. It’s a great lesson to learn.”

After several more winery jobs, Barker would eventually land at Sacred Hill, “which I think is one of the most progressive wineries in New Zealand.”

It provided his link to Moana Park.

“When I was at Sacred, the head winemaker, Tony Bish, won winemaker of the year and I won young winemaker of the year at the same event.

And that night there came a job offer to become winemaker at Moana Park. I’d had a couple wines and I accepted. The next day I went to Moana Park, grabbed a carton (12-bottle case) of wine and took it home. Then I had a wee cry to myself. The wines were terrible. It was shocking.

Unsellable, in my mind. Faulty — there was no market for them. The brand needed modification. It was a winery owned by a grower who made good fruit, but the wine was awful.

“In the 2005 vintage we scaled back from 15,000 cartons to 2,500 cartons. We had a complete change in focus. We dropped all our supermarket sales, catered only to restaurants, and started to build back up again.

“It was all very fine until of course the recession hit. Then we bought the business.”

My regular visit to the RCMP station to get the previous week’s police news has always been one of my favourite assignments. It gives me insight into what is happening in our community and I am extremely grateful for the co-operation of each commanding officer since I took over the police beat years ago.

But I think there hasn’t been a single time when I didn’t think, either aloud or quietly, how absurd some of the calls are. Often I think back to a CBC Radio interview several years ago with the commanding officer of the Kelowna detachment. He was announcing that there were some reported crimes to which his members would no longer respond to. Not enough personnel to give each call for service adequate attention meant that he had to make some tough choices, he said.

Now, after hearing synopses of tens of thousands of calls to the police, I think there are a number of issues that I think could be dismissed out of hand.

Why, I wonder, should police concern themselves with thefts of items from unlocked vehicles? While such thefts are crimes, they are pretty much entirely eliminated by the simple action of locking a vehicle’s doors.

Is that an unreasonable expectation for a person responsible enough to actually own and drive a vehicle? It’s not a big stretch, either, to wonder about whether police should concern themselves with the theft of vehicles that had the keys left inside, with the doors unlocked. How much trouble is it to take the keys out?

More often, reports involve things like receiving unwanted text messages, when the recipient need only block the sender from sending the messages. Instead, a call is made to police. Or a neighbor takes offense at another’s activities, like mowing the lawn. Instead of doing the logical thing, like walking over to the person and explaining the concern, though, the solution that comes to mind is to call the Lorne Eckersley police.

This is the Life

Lojong slogan 52: Don’t misinterpret

This slogan focuses on six qualities — patience, yearning, excitement, compassion, priorities and joy — and how they can be misinterpreted. More generally, this slogan instructs us to see how we twist things so that our avoidance of reality is considered to be a virtue rather than a fault.

We are continually tempted to misinterpret teachings designed to soften our obsession with self so that instead of reducing self-cherishing, we add more fuel to self-absorption and distractedness.

An undercurrent that runs through this slogan is the strong pull of selfish motivation. The Lojong slogans go against the grain and threaten our cozy cocoon of self-satisfaction, so we try to figure out ways to live a spiritual life without having to give up anything. We long for spiritual growth, but don’t want to change, we twist the teachings to fit our personal agenda, we start a spiritual practice then drop out, we pay lip service, but our heart really lies with protecting our self-centred delusions.

The first three categories — patience, yearning and excitement — are quite straightforward.

Misinterpreted patience is being patient with the difficulties of daily life, but not patient with our rate of spiritual growth.

Misinterpreted yearning is to have

constant yearning for more money, more pleasure and more security, but to have very little yearning to train the mind, develop a spiritual practice or cultivate loving-kindness.

A

Zen's-Eye View Kuya Minogue

Misinterpreted excitement is to find mindless entertainment and the endless pursuit of wealth exciting, but not be excited about the study and practice of our chosen spiritual path.

The fourth category, misinterpreted compassion, is more provocative.

Misinterpreted compassion means to feel compassion for the hardships faced by people who have similar social, cultural and spiritual beliefs as us, but not to feel compassion for people outside our community by demonizing them as enemies.

According to this slogan, true compassion is not based on picking and choosing, and it is not based on sorting people into who is worthy of our compassion and who is not.

The fifth category, twisted priori-

ties, could also be called the challenge of scheduling. Somehow, we always manage to find time in our schedules for what entertains us or advances our self-interest, but find it difficult to find time for spiritual study and practice.

The sixth and last category, twisted joy, means to take more delight in seeing someone whom you view as a competitor suffer than you take in seeing them successfully overcome obstacles through wholehearted spiritual practice.

These six categories are examples of the methods that we use to disguise ego-gratification as virtuous activity. Most of us are very good at this.

Suggested practice: Start with the misinterpretation of priorities. List out your main activities for a week, and calculate how much time you spend on each category, such as work, sleep, TV, study, practice and socializing. What does this tell you about your priorities? What would need to shift to free up a little time for spiritual study and practice?

This column is a long series of short essays exploring the meaning of the Lojong Slogans. It is inspired by the work of Judy Lief.

To the Editor: I was driving behind a dairy truck on Oct. 12. When we were going through Creston, right near Truscott Farms a woman was frantically trying to make her dog stay where it was. She was across the highway at the time. I guess the dog had gotten out and tried to follow her.

The big dairy truck in front of me didn’t even slow down or stop — he just ran right over the dog. I saw the whole thing happen.

I pulled over, and the now panicking lady ran over to her dog, leaned over and started screaming, “She’s alive! Someone get her to the vet, please, someone take us to the vet!”

The neighbours ran over and took the dog from the woman’s arms and

We are grateful that we have been invited to share our observations and vision for seniors with others who want to develop a strategic plan and process for creating the future we want for our community.

This week we shared lunch with Jennifer Krotz who has been our contact with Columbia Basin Trust for many years. Jennifer has helped TAPS successfully receive support from Columbia Basin Trust for the past six years, initially succeeding in getting funds to set up our kitchen.

Did I say that pie making is happening? Last week a team of volunteers made over 100 fruit pies and three more pie making days are scheduled for this month. The pies will be available at the Krafty Kronys fall craft sale and luncheon on Nov. 10 at TAPS. Come early to get the pies you want, they sell out fast. Esther and Rosalie will be preparing a great lunch, bring a friend, enjoy a good meal and get a start on your Christmas shopping.

To the Editor: (Re: “Samaritan gets carjacked, gunman shot”, Oct. 11 Advance) I know from talking to folks around town that I am one of many complaining about the Oct. 11 front page. Using the language you did, without asterisks, was ridiculous. Of course we would know what you meant without you spelling out the full words. Better yet, why not be true artists and find a way to get the story across without that quote and language at all? We don’t need to see that in this world, and certainly my young children don’t need to see it.

It was an incredibly poor decision made by the Advance staff and hopefully there are ramifications for your incompetence and/or lame attempt at boosted sales for the week.

To the Editor: (Re: “Northern Gateway Pipeline and fascist and stupid idea”, Sept. 27 Advance) Fascist and stupid — wow, strong words! It’s been a long time since I have read such inaccurate rhetoric.

Let’s define the above words as per the New World Dictionary and, more importantly, let’s get some facts straight!

Fascism: a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry.

Stupid: lacking in common sense, perception, or normal intelligence.

The fact that the writer is able to openly criticize this project without fear of repercussion proves that we do not live in a fascist regime; as for it being stupid that is one person’s opinion and a lot of highly educated people would disagree with that opinion.

Only Quebec refers to the oil sands as “tar sands”; there is not one drop of tar, just crude oil, but tar sounds dirtier than oil when you are bashing it.

The gases produced by a properly working septic system are methane and hydrogen sulphide, also known as sour gas or H2S, the second most poisonous gas known to man. A tree naturally decaying in the forest gives off more

gas than a septic system.

The writer has a misconception that biodiesel is produced from these gases as he would have biodiesel plants installed on sewage treatment facilities.

The fact is (as most people know) that biodiesel is produced from vegetable, grain or animal oils. A blend of biodiesel is a viable alternative, but is not practical on its own due to its much higher flash point and pour points.

Using biodiesel results in a power loss of seven to 15 per cent and a consumption increase of three to nine per cent, according to Cummins reports.

A modern gasoline engine has an average compression ratio of 7:1 whereas a diesel engine requires 24:1 to ignite the fuel. The components of a gasoline engine could not withstand the increased pressures and temperatures required for the conversion.

Why is the writer so hung up on diesel, as it is the dirtiest of all the fuels and the engines cost a lot more to manufacture as they have to be built stronger? Granted, on average a diesel engine is more efficient than a gasoline engine.

On Sept. 27, CN announced that it converted a set of locomotives to natural gas on a trial basis and expect a 30 per cent decrease in carbon emissions over diesel. Have they got it all wrong?

As for dismantling all the refineries and pipelines, this idea doesn’t even warrant a reply as the writer has absolutely no idea what all products are derived from petroleum (plastic, rubber). Imagine a world without plastic or tires. Maybe we should go back to slaughtering whales for lamp oil and lubricating oil — that should last the world for a day or so before we eradicate the whales. Now that is the definition of stupid!

A battery large enough to run Creston — wow, I’d like to see that puppy! At present Fairbanks, Alaska, has the largest battery system in existence allowing them to cover peak demand periods with smaller generators as they charge them at times of lesser usage.

The writer keeps referring to petroleum as “black crack”. This is an area in which I have no experience or information; therefore, I cannot comment.

rushed the dog up their driveway to their truck. A woman in a green apron and I were trying to calm the lady down — she was hyperventilating badly — so once she was able to talk I had to get going. My son, Sutton, was screaming in the back of the car because he had no idea where I went.

The lawns are mowed and the grass and leaves composted, with the exception of the walnut leaves.

Davies The perennials are cut back and cleaned up for next season.

Small plants are shifted up a container size.

Roses are mulched at the base of the plant and pruned back by one-third. If left fullsize, they can sometimes be blown around by the wind and this allows the cold to damage the graft. They will be repruned again in spring.

Where possible, the nursery gets one more weeding, either by hand or by use of chemicals in the field. Fall is the perfect time of year to apply pre-emergent herbicide to the field stock for next year.

We move all of the potted nursery stock inside the greenhouses for winter. Larger potted stock that is too big for the greenhouse is placed pot-to-pot (outside) and surrounded by a sawdust mulch. In warmer winters the mice just love this so around the nursery we need to help the cat, Sugar, out with the mouse control. I place bait stations out where I deem them necessary and safe for the pets.

If we have a really mild winter with lots of precipitation, the copper sprays will need to be reapplied. Late in spring most of the fruit trees will be treated with a lime-sulphur and dormant oil spray.

Before the nighttime temperatures reach -5C, all of the seasonal waterlines are drained and then blown out with compressed

When the cherry harvest is done I take a week-and-a-half off. This means the orchard, gardens and field grown nursery stock gets a little casual drought stress. This begins the shutdown for winter. All the potted nursery stock is still watered by staff as needed.

Upon return, the farm gets a weekly watering until freezeup. Nighttime temperatures drop and day lengths get shorter. The leaves on the trees begin to change colour. Many insects and mites will also begin going dormant for winter. You want to eliminate them while you can. While a short-term dry spell will help to initiate a winter dormancy, plant cells need to go into winter well hydrated.

Plants that had a rough summer will have an even worse time over winter if they go into winter dry.

September is the time to reduce the pest and disease inoculums for next year. I sprayed the orchard and nursery with sulphur in order to control any mites and fungal disease. Later, when the leaves have fallen off the trees, they can be sprayed again with copper to control any bacterial blights. In the case of peaches and nectarines, copper controls a fungal disease peach

Water or pond pumps must be drained. Aluminum water pipes are collected up and labeled as to where they will need to go back to in the spring. If I can put any machinery into sheltered space, I do so. Pesticides are placed under the nursery building so as to prevent damage from freezing. Same with any frost tender bulbs that might be on hand.

Out back in the gardens, any special seedlings are collected along with containers of seed from certain other plants. This is processed and sown in flats over the winter to break dormancy. This year we made a special effort in the gardens to reduce pest populations for next year. We actually cut out a bunch of wild bushes and incinerated them. Elsewhere pallets are moved to make plowing snow easier.

Nursery and greenhouse mix is moved inside so it will be easy to get at in January. There really is nothing like packing several tons of frozen potting soil over to the furnace room in January to thaw out before taking it over to the potting bench at the other end of the greenhouse. Speaking of furnaces, I like to relight them when the weather isn’t so cold, so I do that now and not when it hits -15C. Fall is also the time to complete inventories, reorder where necessary and start planning for spring. If possible, the cherry orchard is pruned before Christmas. It may not be the perfect time of year to do it but that’s where it fits into the schedule best.

So that’s fall at the nursery!

Revelation 1:7 and Matthew 24:30 shows that “all the tribes of the earth” also see Him. 2. 1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17 says that at Christ’s parousia both the “dead in Christ” will be resurrected and the living will be caught up together in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.

Jobs available in B.C. tourism industry BLACK PRESS

For some, a dream job would be a vacation planner — for themselves! Vacationing in B.C. can take so many forms that it would indeed be a full-time job.

The tourism and hospitality industry is an extremely diverse industry with over 400 different occupations — including occupations that lead to longer-term careers, as well as those that fit well for those seeking part-time work, like students or older workers who are not yet ready to retire.

British Columbia’s tourism industry will be a leader in provincial job growth as businesses look to fill 101,000 new job openings by 2020, according to a study of labour demand and supply by go2, the B.C. tourism industry’s human resource association.

The Tourism Labour Market Strategy, released in the spring of 2012 by go2, sets out the plan to recruit, retain and train the workers needed to keep pace with the growth projected for the industry. Nearly half of the 101,000 openings will be new jobs created by the tourism industry across the province, adding 44,220 more jobs to the provincial workforce by 2020. The other approximately 57,000 openings are due to replacements (i.e. retirements).

“The labour strategy co-ordinated by go2 is a key pillar of

industry growth in the province,” says Lana Denoni, chair of the Tourism Industry Association of BC. “Without it, we simply wouldn’t have the skilled workers in place to deliver the visitor experience throughout BC.” British Columbia’s location, bordered by the Rocky Mountains on the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west, makes it unique within Canada. Its mountain and coastal scenery, opportunities for summer sailing, winter skiing, and other activities such as fishing or sightseeing in coastal or inland waters or experiencing our vibrant cities all make us a world-class destination.

Tourism helps to diversify our economy and also brings new community services to permanent residents.

BC’s tourism and hospitality industry is now the single largest “primary resource industry” in the province, generating an annual real GDP (2002) of more than $6.4 billion in 2010, ahead of forestry, mining, oil and gas extraction and agriculture.

Tourism and hospitality generated $13.4 billion in annual revenue in 2010. Overall, between 2004 and 2010, industry revenues grew by a total of 25.5 per cent, representing an average annual growth rate of 4.2 per cent.

The provincial government’s Gaining the Edge: A Five-year Strategy for Tourism in British Columbia targets revenue growth of five per cent a year that will top $18 billion in tourism spending by 2016.

The fastest growing sectors for tourism job growth over the next decade are expected to be recreation and entertainment and travel services.

There are an estimated 17,943 tourism-related businesses across the province, employing about 260,000 workers, or 10.8 per cent of B.C.’s total labour force of 2.4 million people.

More than 80 per cent of tourism’s new job openings are projected to come in food and bever-

age services (43,410 openings), recreation and entertainment (20,530 openings) and the accommodation sector (18,920 openings).

“After several years of slow labour growth, the tourism industry is poised to expand,” said Arlene Keis, CEO of go2.

“Labour shortages are already being felt in places like northern B.C., the Thompson Okanagan and in the Rockies regions. By 2016, the crunch will be more acute throughout the province.

“The tourism industry often provides people with their important first job and sets them on their career path. Tourism is also the largest employer of

youth, with one in four British Columbians under the age of 24 working in the industry.

“This anticipated growth in tourism reinforces the need to plan carefully and ensure that there are enough workers with the right skills in the right communities to meet the tourism industry’s future labour needs.”

“Working part-time in tourism information was a fun way for me to use my great knowledge of Canadian cities,” says boomer Gaye Dolezal of Sidney. “I often astounded visitors with the connections I could make to their hometowns. People like to feel like welcome guests, not just tourists.”

Zack King started off the Chiefs scoring in the first with a breakaway top shelf goal assisted by Nick Mottl.

Chris Mulder to finish off the second period. The boys went to the dressing room leading 5-3.

The game went to 5-5, then Mottl got an unassisted goal in the third. Coeur d’Alene evened it up and scored the winning seventh goal. The Chiefs coach pulled the goalie in the last minute-and-a-half with the puck in the offensive zone.

Creston lost the draw three times in front of their goalie.

The Chiefs could not buy a goal; however, they did manage to keep it out of

their own net.

The Chiefs coach said the team played well but some undisciplined penalties late in the game hurt the team’s chances for a win.

Missing from the roster were captain Jessie Bourgeios and Jacob Endersby. A lot of rookies were played in the second half of the game to give them plenty of ice time, as this was an exhibition game (Coeur d’Alene does not play in the Chiefs’ league). The Chiefs will be playing in Coeur d’Alene on the weekend.

Christ returning

From page 8 3. The living wicked will be destroyed by the brightness of His parousia, (2 Thessalonians 2:8) and this destruction will be literal.

“For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming (parousia) of the Son of man be.”

(Matthew 24:27) Nothing hidden or secret here — all will know!

The ancient Greeks used the word parousia to describe the arrival or visit of a royal person or king. It was always a literal, visible and personal visit, usually accompanied with pomp and much splendor.

“Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before Him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about Him. He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people.” (Psalm 50:3, 4.)

The parousia of Jesus will be the loudest day of this earth’s history. The trumpet will sound and at the voice of the archangel the dead in Christ will be resurrected and the living saints will be translated to heaven without seeing death.

Have these events happened? No. Has the parousia of Jesus come yet? No! But soon Jesus will be here again. Are you ready to meet the Creator, our God and Saviour in peace?

Ian Cotton is the retired pastor of the Creston Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Grad 2013 perceptions •It feels like the last five years have gone by really fast.

Dalton R. •Knowing that your world is about to change is nervewracking. Brett •Becoming an adult with adult responsibilities makes me scared and nervous. Dalton A. •Grade 12 is easier I find but it’s my last year, which is freaky. Michaela •There is a big difference between this year and last year. No one’s older than us and we have spares so more freedom. Kolton •Grade 12 is a crazy rollercoaster because it seems like just yesterday we were grade 8s, now we have to graduate, pay our own bills and make our own lunches. Ashley •This is it, it’s the last chance to get through it all and get it right so we can move onto the next steps in our education.

Micheal

Grade 8 perceptions

•High school is a rush!

Knowing you’re so small out of all the people but yet is so amazing how we all get along and make new friends and learn about one another.

Amie •High school is much different than the stereo types of high school on TV or in movies, it’s realizing to know it’s different in a good way. Amanda

•Grade 8 is great, new people new faces, different teachers each block is more fun. Tyler •High school is not as scary as I expected, the majority of older students are nice to us or leave us alone. Devon •Grade 8 is amazing, I have more independence and responsibility, and I love all of the different classes and opportunities to learn and make new friends. Janelle •Before I started I was very nervous, but on the first day I felt very welcome and by the end of that day I wasn’t nervous about anything. Gina •I’m afraid the next five years are gonna fly by and BAM, I’m in college. Jack •I was a little scared about the high school but when I got here I started to get used to it.

Everyone is so nice, even when you’re in a bad mood.

Netticia •It was way easier than I thought it would be and the Grade 12s are nicer than I thought they would be. Cole •Grade 8 is a lot more fun than elementary because there is a lot more freedom and you have several teachers and cooler classes.

Bronwyn •I like that we have only four classes a day. It’s different then elementary school because we have different teachers per class. I like lunchtime better then in elementary school. John •High school has been surprisingly fun so far. The only thing I don’t look forward to is math. Jesse

PCSS students get involved

BY RYLAN LAVALLEE Prince Charles Secondary School

On Oct. 17, hundreds of Prince Charles Secondary School students descended upon the community for an afternoon.

What would normally be cause for concern was in fact the exact opposite. Students were out of classes for PCSS’s first Community Involvement Day, whereupon Creston’s youth volunteered for one of many different options around town. Some cleaned up Balancing Rock Trail in West Creston, some organized books at the Creston and District Public Library. My group was at our local Pet Adoption and Welfare Society (PAWS), where we filled gopher holes, cleaned out kennels and helped with other tasks.

Not only did the event provide free labor for the community but it also contributed to our school atmosphere. Groups consisted of students from all grades, something that doesn’t happen too often, and it can be important for younger stu-

dents to observe the older ones (or at least the better behaved ones) as role models. For Grade 8s especially, higher grades have a duty to demonstrate proper behavior and how students should act. It also introduced many to the prospect of volunteering. I have heard a few peers expressing interest in returning to the places they had helped at in the future, which is spectacular.

Perhaps my favorite outcome of that day was hearing later that two of my group actually returned to PAWS, both of them adopting an animal. Considering the entire day was pulled off without issue and having heard nothing but positive feedback, I’m considering this Community Involvement Day a success, and hopefully it is the first of many.

Among the most notable differences in his experience in Creston is the way the grapes mature in a rush in early fall. Grapes’ sweetness can increase by 15 per cent a week in that period, something Barker never sees in New Zealand.

And the different varieties of grapes — Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Kerner — tend to finish ripening at about the same time.

“That makes things easier because we don’t have to make too many choices. We harvested everything in six or seven days here,” he says.

“At home it takes about seven weeks.”

And he sees no end of potential here, where disease and birds aren’t much of a factor, the microclimate of the Erickson bench is favourable and soil imparts a distinct and appealing “dusty mineral“ flavour and aroma to the wines.

“I think the sky’s the limit here,” he says.

From page 5 With each successive year, Barker and his wife, Kaylea, have added another block of vines to their holdings, which now total 100 acres in seven blocks. They lease other blocks.

“We’re not huge. This year we’ll produce about 30,000 cartons. We’re almost sold out now — we’ll have no wine for about six months.

We’ve developed a new brand, we’re back in the supermarkets.”

While 30,000 cases of wine, or 360,000 bottles, a year would make Moana Park a big producer in B.C., but it’s a small-to-average operation in the export-focused New Zealand market, where about 700 wineries produce far more wine than the country’s population can consume.

Barker became familiar with Canada when he and Kaylea, whose brother lives in Ontario, came for a wedding in 2006.

Kaylea had worked for three years in Ontario, so Barker took advantage of the trip half way around the world to get some work experience. He consulted for Hidden Bench, an artisanal winery in the Niagara region.

In 2009, he was back in B.C., looking for new marketing opportunities for his export wines. Shortly after, he was offered the winemaking job at BaillieGrohman.

Everything you need to know about sharks Sharks are found in all the oceans of the world. Sharks come in awesome and amazing shapes and sizes. The biggest shark is called the whale shark while the smallest is the dwarf shark. Sharks breathe through their gills underwater. All sharks are predators because they like meat. All sharks search the oceans while hunting. Some sharks sleep and keep moving which is awesome. Although sharks do not always attack people they are dangerous. Sharks are always roaming the ocean.

— Trulie Palmer The shark dwells around oceans as they look for prey around the world. They come in beautiful shapes and sizes as there are different kinds. Whale sharks are the biggest while dwarf sharks are the smallest sharks. Sharks breathe with gills under the water while they hunt many prey. They continually hunt their prey as they sneak behind them. They even sleep when they are moving. People consider sharks dangerous because they hunt fish and other animals.

— Anthony Gorham At this very moment thousands and thousands of sharks are dwelling in the ocean because that is the place they call home. Sharks come in all different shapes and sizes, just as we do. The largest shark is the whale shark while the smooth, tiny dwarf shark is the smallest. Just like any other cold-blooded underwater fish, sharks have gills, which means they breathe underwater. Sharks are predators that swiftly slaughter their prey.

Sharks are continually hunting prey. While sharks are sleeping they are still moving.

Sharks can be incredibly dangerous due to their sharp teeth. Sharks are always roaming the ocean.

— Devon Van der Merwe These scary creatures dwell in the ocean’s world. The many kinds of sharks have different shapes and faces. Surprisingly there are 250 different kinds of sharks. The largest shark is the whale shark and the smallest is the dwarf shark. Sharks breathe through their gills because they are fish. These fish are predators which means they search for food as in prey. The sharks constantly hunt for their prey in the ocean. Strange but cool, sharks sleep while they’re moving. Many sharks are considered dangerous. These creatures inhabit the oceans.

— Jayda Wickhorst Sharks live in oceans all over the world.

They come in shapes and sizes that are different, some strong, other terrifying. The largest shark is the whale shark because it’s the size of a whale, while the dwarf shark’s size is small.

Sharks breathe water, which is impossible for humans. Many sharks are predators — if they were prey what would eat them? Sharks search the large ocean for food. They sleep and keep moving or else sadly they would die. Sharks rarely attack people. Sharks inhabit the oceans of the world.

— Hunter Everitt

CLES students learn about peace CANYON-LISTER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

For an entire week, students at Canyon-Lister Elementary School discussed at length what it means to be a peacemaker.

During morning announcements, students got to listen to peace songs ranging from Peace Train to Imagine, as well as listening to messages of how to create peace in the world and in their own school. These activities were amongst the thousands around

the world to celebrate the United Nations International Day of Peace on Sept. 21.

On that afternoon, students went to different classrooms to work on decorations that will hang from a Peace Tree that will adorn one of the hallways at school. Later there was an assembly in the gym where students listened to several videos, including one featuring Jane Goodall talking about the Roots and Shoots program, which CLES is a part of.

Nightshade hosting Halloween dance party NIGHTSHADE

Creston’s own Nightshade return to the Snoring Sasquatch on Oct. 27 to kick off the Halloween season.

Join them with all the local monsters

and zombies to dance the night away. Scott Irvine, Erich Schmidt, Rick Potyok and Jan MacDonald have added some traditional Halloween tunes to their ever-growing list of classic rock and roll, with a smattering of high-energy blues, that are sure to keep the

creatures of the night grooving until dawn.

Or as late as the neighbourhood will let them go, whichever comes first.

So pull out your favorite Halloween duds and dress to the nines. There will be prizes for best costumes.

Tickets are available at Kingfisher Used Books, Black Bear Books and the Snoring Sasquatch for $10 in advance and $13 at the door, which opens at 7 p.m. This is for grown-up ghoulies and ghosties only — it is a licensed event, so no minors please.

In Memoriam BILL HERCHMER OCTOBER 28, 2003 Remembering You Dear Bill, I remember you as a friend and loved one, but also as God’s beloved creation who graced my life with love and companionship.

You enhanced my life, for by your example, I am today a more loving, compassionate and understanding person that I was before we met.

Like a shining star, you had an inner light that shone out and made each day brighter.

I know that you are forever enfolded in the love of God because you were an expression of that love on Earth. You were able to see the best in me and others and to reveal that best with an integrity that could not be denied.

Dear Bill you are ever in my heart I love you - always.

Lovingly remembered by his wife Vera.

Thunder Cats beat Spokane to end losing streak

BY BRIAN LAWRENCE Advance Editor

The Creston Valley Thunder Cats ended a six-game losing streak on Saturday, defeating the Spokane Braves 6-3 in a rare win at the Spokane arena.

“The guys brought another great performance there, and they finally got rewarded for their hard work, which was nice to see,” said head coach Josh Hepditch. “It was a big confidence boost for our players. It was good to end the slump with a tough game like that.”

The Braves started scoring with a goal early in the first period, followed by Thunder Cats goals from Darcy Flaherty and Jaiden Ward. In the second period,

Trevor Hanna scored twice for the Thunder Cats, with a Spokane goal in between, with Angus Johnston scoring the Thunder Cats’ fourth unassisted with two minutes left.

The Braves scored their third goal early in the third period, which also saw Hanna score his third goal of the night, a shorthanded empty-netter, with nine seconds left.

“He’s been working hard through this whole little slump,” said Hepditch. “He had a lot of chances on Friday night and couldn’t find the net, but pulled through then.”

That win followed a 5-3 loss to the Kimberley Dynamiters on Friday. The game started with a Kimberley goal followed by Creston goals from Andrew Hodder and Flaherty.

“We had a bit of a lapse in the second, and that’s when they scored three goals,” said Hepditch. “That proves you have to play 60 minutes and you can’t let up.”

The Dynamiters scored a fifth goal early in the third period, and Colby Livingstone scored the Thunder Cats’ third with three minutes left.

The result was disappointing considering that the Thunder Cats outshot the Dynamiters 49-22, but Hepditch was pleased with the performance of the Hodder-Flaherty-Ty Kronewitt line.

“They’ve been playing very well together and all three played extremely well.

This weekend, the Thunder Cats play three games, visiting the Golden Rockets on Friday, then hosting the Grand Forks

Border Bruins on Saturday and the Rockets on Sunday.

The Rockets are in third place in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League’s Eddie Mountain Division, three points ahead of the fifth-place Thunder Cats.

“It could give us a chance to catch them,” said Hepditch.

And although the Thunder Cats beat the Border Bruins the last time they played against each other, the Creston team will have to fight hard for a win.

“They’ve got a competitive team that’s been playing well,” said Hepditch. “We haven’t been performing at home as well as we want to. We have to establish a presence in our own arena so teams are intimidated to come here.”
