Kimberley’s draft trail plan ready for comment Public meeting set for May 30, Centennial Hall CAROLYN GRANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

A new, comprehensive management plan for trails in and around Kimberley is now in the final draft stage and ready to be presented to residents for comment.

This new plan encompasses more than just trails within City limits and is the result of over

seven months of work, says Chris Ferguson of the Kimberley Nature Park Society.

“Although the city has put together trail plans in the past, these usually pertained to those found on city property, only,” Ferguson said. “For the last seven months, a multi-stakeholder group has been working on a contemporary Trails Management Plan that encompasses many areas well outside the city limits.”

Working with a consultant, hired through funds from the Pro-

vincial Government Recreation Sites and Trails program, the group came up with a plan that sets out the areas where trails exist, or might be developed, close to town; identifies the various trail management groups and other key stakeholders for these areas, lists the current trails and their status, and expresses broad guidelines for standards.

This does not mean that this stakeholder group will have manKent Goodwin photo agement of particular trails, he said.

VANCOUVER — A high streamflow advisory has been ended for the lower Fraser River, from Quesnel south to the Lower Mainland.

The cancellation ends all warnings, watches and advisories issued by the River Forecast Centre after recent warm temperatures and heavy rains caused many waterways around B.C. to swell.

However, forecasters warn another cycle of surging water could be on the way.

Heavy rain is expected across much of the Interior, north and southeastern sections of the province through Wednesday.

The River Forecast Centre says it continues to monitor levels in all B.C. rivers, streams and creeks, and will provide updates as conditions warrant.

Drug use dropping in East Kootenay teens A survey of East Kootenay students has found fewer are trying alcohol, tobacco and illegal substances Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

Teenagers in the East Kootenay are using drugs less often in 2013 than they were eight years ago, according to a survey just released.

The East Kootenay Addictions Services Society surveyed 3,500 students in Grades 7 through 12 in schools from Cranbrook to Golden and from Creston to Elkford.

The survey is completed every two years, and the most recent results come from students in February and March this year.

“Drug use continues to go down steadily, which is good news,” said Dean Nicholson, administrator of East Kootenay Addictions Services Society. “The major drugs – tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, mushrooms, ecstasy, prescription, cocaine – are all dropping.”

This year, 60.6 per cent of students said they have tried alcohol, compared to 76.8 per cent in 2005. 30.5 per cent have tried marijuana, compared to 37.9 per cent in 2005.

8.1 per cent have tried mushrooms, compared to 14.5 per cent in 2005.

In 2013, 71.9 per cent of teens said they have never tried tobacco, while in 2007, 61.3 per cent said they hadn’t smoked cigarettes.

“The other exciting thing was, we had seen ecstasy use rising over all these years. This is the first year it has dropped off,” said Nicholson.

In 2013, 5.8 per cent said they had tried ecstasy. In 2011, it was 8.7 per cent.

“In our education in schools we have really pushed the risks of ecstasy, and a lot more kids are giving us feedback when we talk to

them that they are choosing not to do that because it’s not necessarily a clean drug.”

Since starting the survey, East Kootenay Addictions Services Society has conducted inschool education about safety and substance use around the region.

Nicholson said there’s no way to know if that education is making the difference for East Kootenay adolescents.

“I’d love to say, yes, it’s because of what we’re doing, but to be scientifically honest I can’t say that,” he said. “(But) in the communities where we’ve been really intensively trying to have multi-pronged and multi-year interventions, we are tending to see bigger drops.”

There has been a bigger drop in substance use among girls than boys, the survey found.

“When we were looking early on in the decade, we found that girls were just as likely to have tried the substances, and were likely to be using almost as

““A half a year increase is a huge increase. It doesn’t sound like a lot, but it really is a big difference because it means at the Grade 7, Grade 8 level, we are going to see a lot more kids who at that age haven’t used yet. They may start in Grade 9, but for us that’s preferable.

The longer they wait, the less likely they are to do all sorts of heavy use,” Dean Nicholson, East Kootenay Addictions Services often as the boys were, and in some cases such as ecstasy and cocaine, they were more likely to have used the substances than the boys,” said Nicholson.

“This time around, all the substances the girls are using less than the boys.”

When it comes to alcohol, 62 per cent of boys in 2013 had tried it, versus 58.5 per cent of girls. In 2009, 70.5 per cent of boys had tried alcohol compared

to 69.3 per cent of girls.

For marijuana, 33.6 per cent of boys in 2013 had tried it, while 27.3 per cent of girls had.

Back in 2007, 35.4 per cent of boys had tried marijuana, compared to 36.2 per cent of girls.

“Even though they are all dropping, the girls have been dropping at a faster rate,” said Nicholson.

“It’s fairly normal that a good chunk of teenagers, but boys even more so than girls,

City of Kimberley PUBLIC NOTICE The City of Kimberley hereby gives notice that it intends to amend the off-street parking and loading regulations that apply to all lands affected by Zoning Bylaw 1850 in Kimberley. Lands affected by the Alpine Resort Zoning Bylaw 2016 are not impacted by the proposed changes.

Bylaw No. 2470 (Amendment No. 118, 2013) proposes numerous changes that are intended to improve clarity and certainty of the offstreet parking and loading regulations. The proposed changes are intended to eliminate inconsistent parking regulations for commercial and residential uses in commercial zones by exempting all uses on lands zoned CP-1, C-1, C-2 and C-3 from off-street parking requirements. The proposed amendments would reduce the parking requirement for smaller residential units and reduce the loading requirements for smaller scale commercial and industrial uses.

A Public Hearing for Bylaw 2470 will be held on Monday, May 27, 2013 at 6:45 pm in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 340 Spokane Street, Kimberley, BC. If you believe that your interest in property is affected by the proposed bylaws, you may: a. Submit written presentations to City Hall prior to the hearing, or b. Submit written and/or verbal presentations at the hearing.

will be more likely to be sensation seeking. They are more naturally wired to do more of that risk taking, try things out.”

And East Kootenay teens are older now when they start using substances, the survey found.

On average, kids in 2013 are aged 12.9 when they try alcohol for the first time, compared to 12.5 in 2005.

“A half a year increase is a huge increase. It doesn’t sound like a lot, but it really is a big difference because it means at the Grade 7, Grade 8 level, we are going to see a lot more kids who at that age haven’t used yet. They may start in Grade 9, but for us that’s preferable. The longer they wait, the less likely they are to do all sorts of heavy use,” said Nichol-

son.

One negative that the survey found is that in 2013 young people are just as likely to drive after using marijuana.

“The number of kids saying they are driving after using marijuana hasn’t changed very much,” said Nicholson.

“We’ve got roughly as many kids saying they are driving after drinking as there are driving after smoking pot.”

In 2013, 12 per cent of teens said they have driven while drunk, and 10.4 per cent have driven while under the influence of marijuana.

In 2007, 20.1 per cent had driven after using alcohol, versus 11 per cent after using marijuana.

“There has been some headway in getting kids to think about drinking and driving, and certainly we see

kids being much more likely to arrange designated drivers if they are going out drinking, but maybe not quite as much around marijuana,” said Nicholson.

It’s something important to consider when debating the decriminalization of marijuana, he went on.

“There’s a general perception among many people, including a lot of adolescents, that marijuana is not as harmful as alcohol or cigarettes, and there is some truth to that in some respects. But I think in doing that they are not recognizing the impact it still has on motor coordination and the fact that you are still impaired to drive, both legally and practically,” said Nicholson.

daily bulletin

First draft of trail plan ready

From Page 1 “It is important to understand that particular groups, such as the Kimberley Nature Park Society and the Kimberley Nordic Club, will maintain control of specifics of how they manage their trails. The draft plan opens the door to more communication, sharing of practices and coordination, where feasible, between the various groups.”

Community support and comment on the plan is important, the group believes, because the more buy-in from the public the plan gets, the more likely it is that values will be protected and interests balanced.

The plan addresses 15 specific trail areas in and around Kimberley; Bootleg; Mr. Toad; Campground; Forest Crowne; Levirs; Lois Creek; Sullivan Hill; Northstar Mountain; Kimberley Nordic Club; Kimberley Nature Park; Horse Barn Valley Interpretive Forest; Mark Creek; The Hoodoos and Butte and Concentrator Hill.

The draft plan is available for view now at www.tourismkimberley.com/draftplan.

There will also be a public meeting seeking feedback on May 30 at Centennial Hall, 7 p.m.

Feedback can also be provided by e-mail: trailskimberley@gmail. com “The trails management groups very much look forward to hearing your thoughts and any concerns about this general plan for trails around Kimberley,” Ferguson said. “The hope is that this document, with support from the public, will help lead the way into a future with even more sustainable, well supported and legal trails for locals and visitors alike to enjoy.”

ra del Fuego, Siberia or Ottawa, the ends of the earth, then they had to start tidying up, cleaning and throwing stuff away.

Naturally, the menfolk, being the thinkers of the families, delegated the tidying, cleaning and throwing away to the women.

This was when the word ‘drudge’ came into being.

When the ‘drudges’ asked why the menfolk shouldn’t share the burden of keeping house, the guys invented something they called ‘work’ and took off for hours at a time. It didn’t matter one iota what they did at ‘work’ as long as it wasn’t housework.

Inevitably, after a zillion years or so, the distaff side caught on because, although some of them like to act the ‘dumb blonde’ type, they are sharper than that.

They also discovered ‘work’ and so abandoned their hearths, homes and children in order to go to somewhere where they could dress up a little and do as little as their husbands had been doing for centuries.

They also brought in extra cash so that they might employ other ‘drudges’ to do the nasty business of looking behind stoves and fridges and rooting out all the nasties that lurk there, waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting home-owner.

I have seriously considered putting my downstairs bathroom out of bounds then hanging a sign ‘unexploded bomb’ on the door. It would be close to the truth anyway.

It’s dangerous down there.

Martial artists make the grade at nationals TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Cranbrook martial artists fought their way to spots on the Canadian team at a national tournament in Ottawa over the weekend.

The Rocky Mountain Academy of Martial Arts sent five students to the nation’s capital, while the Dragon School of Korean Martial Arts was represented by Curtis Pocha.

Logan Robertson, Tage Leiman, Cole McNolty Tyson Hirscher and Dave Buckley all represented RMAMA at the event and all made the national squad in their respective age and weight categories in continuous sparring.

Roberston earned a silver medal, while Leiman, McNaulty and Tyson Hirscher captured bronze honours, while Buckley battled his way to a fourth place finish, and a spot as an alternate on the national team.

Joel Huncar, owner of RMAMA who led his five athletes to nationals, said Hirscher’s showing over his two rounds was particularly exciting.

“Tyson, he came out

a little soft, he was holding back and so he lost in the first round,” Huncar said. “…because Tyson held back in the first round, he came in last, because he got taken out right away. So the second heat, he said, ‘Well, I’m not holding back now,’ and I gave him a pep talk.

“He went back in and beat everybody.”

Leiman also had an exciting finish, requiring extra rounds after a three-way tie for first place with two other opponents, added Huncar.

Huncar said the tournament, which featured 100 clubs from across the country, was a great experience not just for his students, but for himself as well.

“You know what I love about this, is it gives kids a goal to reach for and to train for—not just kids, because we have adults compete as well—but it gives people something to train for and set goals for,” Huncar said.

“You learn a lot as you go. The whole place was so respectful, everyone was shaking hands with opposing

Mooseheads pound Knights 8-2 JOSHUA CLIPPERTON Canadian Press

SASKATOON - Martin Frk had a hat trick and an assist and Darcy Ashley also scored twice and had an assist of his own Tuesday as the Halifax Mooseheads hammered the London Knights 9-2 in the final round-robin game for both teams at the MasterCard Memorial Cup. Stefan Fournier added a goal and an assist, while Brent Andrews, Ryan Falkenham and Luca Ciampini also scored for Halifax (2-1), which booked a spot in at least Friday’s semifinal with a clinical offensive performance.

Zachary Fucale made 26 saves for the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League champions, who led 5-0 after the first period and 8-2 after the second before taking their foot off the gas in the third. Top

prospects Nathan MacKinnon and Jonathan Drouin each added three assists.

The focus of the tournament now turns to Wednesday’s final round-robin game between the Western Hockey League champion Portland Winterhawks (1-1) and the host Saskatoon Blades (1-1). A victory for Portland puts the Mooseheads directly into Sunday’s championship game, while a Saskatoon win means the Blades will go right to the final, with Halifax having to settle for a spot in the semifinal.

Seth Griffith and Matt Rupert had the goals for the Knights (12), who will take on the loser of Saskatoon-Portland in Thursday’s tiebreaker. The winner of that one moves on to the semi.

Jake Patterson, who

was making his first start of the tournament, stopped 6 of 11 shots for London in a disastrous first period before being replaced by Anthony Stolarz at the start of second. Stolarz was pulled after giving up five goals on 31 shots in the Ontario Hockey League champions’ 6-3 loss to Portland on Monday. He finished

with 22 saves on Tuesday.

Notes: The best that Portland can finish is to qualify for the semifinal with a win over Saskatoon on Wednesday. ...

Hockey legend and local product Gordie Howe received a standing ovation from the crowd of 9,237 before dropping the puck for the ceremonial faceoff.

Kimberley Summer Theatre Presents:

ARIES (March 21-April 19) More options could appear than you’d thought possible. Consider having a long-overdue conversation with a trusted adviser or friend. You will gain a new perspective as a result. Both of you will see the negatives as well as the positives. Tonight: Continue a conversation over dinner.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might not be sure about an offer that seems nearly too good to be true. Give yourself time and space. Do what you must, but call a trusted loved one for a talk later in the day. Together, you make great decisions.

Tonight: Make it easy to get together with friends.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Use the first part of the day for anything that depends on your ingenuity. Sometimes you go overboard without intending to, especially financially. Avoid taking a risk for now. Later, when you have an opportunity to weigh the pros and cons, do.

Tonight: Get some R and R.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Getting going might be nearly impossible. Why not take the day off? You might need some space in order to see a situation more clearly. Also, stop and consider what you want from this circumstance. You will come up with an effective solution. Tonight: Take a midweek break.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Answer calls, and arrange an impromptu meeting later in the day. By late afternoon, you will want to slow down and do a bit of reflecting. You also might want to complete some quiet work. Rethink a personal situation involving a loved one at a distance. Tonight: At home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to do something very differently from how you have in the past. Do some research, or at least bounce several of your ideas off someone.

You will be able to determine which way to go after having this conversation. Tonight: Hang out with a friend.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have extra charisma this

For Better or Worse

morning, especially if you make decisions from the perspective of the greater good of the whole.

Be sure to keep an eye on the ramifications of a financial decision. Avoid a risk, no matter how dreamy it might seem. Tonight: Treat yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Gather much-needed research in order to confirm in your own mind which path is right for you.

Listen to powerful feedback from a friend and/or an adviser.

This person has your best interests in mind. Later today, let others know how you feel. Tonight: Where the action is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might not believe the good will that surrounds you this morning. You don’t often get sunny weather with the wind pushing you in the direction you want. Network, make calls and say “yes” to a sudden meeting.

Tonight: Take some personal time; you have a lot on your plate.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Assume the lead, but know that you could get some flak

for your decisions. Be aware of your boundaries. The afternoon presents you with a positive response and a brainstorming session. You’ll get to share your dreams with others, and they with you. Tonight: Take a break.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) By all means, get ahead of a problem by finding the solution.

Though many might not understand how you got there, they will be relieved to discover that you got to that point. Accept a last-minute request to fill in for a boss or supervisor. Tonight: Consider being freer.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Respond in kind to a partner who is making sure that you are on the same page. Unity might be more important than you realize. Look to plan a trip or getaway for a few days. It is time for you to indulge in a long-term desire. Tonight: Look beyond the obvious.

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I are caught up in our son’s dysfunctional marriage. “Martin” and his wife have three children together, and he has an older child from a previous marriage. All of the children are wonderful.

They do well in school. But their mom and dad hate each other, drink too much and fight constantly.

Martin was recently fired after several incidents at work, some of them physical. They lost their home and now rent. They each accuse the other of being crazy and stupid.

One sleeps constantly. They do not communicate in any way. They have given up hope of ever being happy or ever achieving anything.

We listen to them and can’t decide who is right or wrong. We think they are both at fault, but we have no idea how to help them.

Divorce is out of the question. They’ve been to counseling and thought it was a joke.

We’re getting too old for this. -- Usually Have an Answer Dear Usually: There is no definitive “right” or “wrong.” Your son and his wife have an alcohol problem and other issues that they are not addressing. No one should endure such an unhappy life if things can be done to make it better.

Please urge them to go back to counseling for their children’s sake. If they didn’t like the first counselor, they can look for someone who is a better fit. They can go separately or together. They also should look for a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, and the kids can check out Alateen (al-anon.alateen. org). In the meantime, please offer to take those children into your home as often as possible so they have some semblance of stability.

Dear Annie: My widowed mother is 79 years old and has been diagnosed with mild dementia that is getting progressively worse.

She lives alone, and I am 10 minutes away.

Here’s my question: What is the best way to care for my mother? When will I know the time is right to place her in a nursing home?

What kind of facility is best? I have a sister, but she has nothing to do with me. I feel alone and naive about Mom’s care. Do you have any suggestions? -- Doing It Myself Dear Doing: A lot of this is dictated by finances. Can your mother afford round-theclock care in her own home? That is often the kindest solution. Is there an affordable CCRC (Continuing Care Retirement Community) that offers independent living, followed by assisted living, followed by nursing home care as needed? You can contact the Eldercare Locator (eldercare.gov) at 1-800677-1116 to find resources in your area. Or, if you can afford it, you can get help navigating your options by hiring a private care manager through the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers at caremanager.org.

Dear Annie: My heart goes out to “A Regretful Grandma,” who grieves her grandchild aborted 40 years ago. Your advice to seek grief counseling was excellent, but many counselors are not trained or sensitive to this particular kind of grief.

I would like to let Regretful Grandma and others know about the National Office of Post-Abortion Reconciliation and Healing (noparh.org) at 1-800-5WE-CARE. They offer both secular and religious resources and referrals, and their website has a page just for grandparents. -- Reader in Baton Rouge Dear Baton: Many readers wrote to us with referrals, many to Rachel’s Vineyard, and most of which are religious in nature. Thank you for helping.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN
