JIM HOLTZ

For the Grand Forks Gazette

Despite the efforts of the Friends and Residents of the North Fork (FRNF), BC Timber Sales (BCTS) has decided to proceed with plans to log the Lynch Creek North area. “Work to upgrade the Gladstone Forestry Road began (Thursday, July 11),” Shane Bowden, BCTS timber sales manager for the Kootenay business region, said in an interview Friday.

Margaret Steele, spokesperson for the FRNF, responded, “I am totally disgusted that BCTS is going ahead with the road, when they know we have a meeting arranged in Victoria with senior ministry (Forest, Lands and Natural Resource Operation) officials to discuss this issue on July 25. This is a total disregard for the voices of 160 citizens of the Boundary who have signed a petition asking for a moratorium on this logging plan.”

According to Steele, the area that is to be logged is vital to the resident wildlife.

In a letter to Bowden she wrote, “This area is the last intact forest and wildlife corridor remaining in the Lower Granby and, if it is logged, Gladstone Park will become an ‘Island of Extinction’ for wildlife, just like Granby Park. Lynch

Creek North is the only remaining wildlife corridor from high elevation to low valley ecosystems and includes valuable south facing habitat.”

Steele maintains that the Kettle-Granby grizzly population in particular is threatened if the logging proceeds in Lynch Creek North.

“There is speculation that the grizzlies have basically been ‘pushed’ into this area since the connectivity corridor between the two parks has been destroyed,” Steele stated. “Simply put, they have nowhere else to go. Grizzly bear biology clearly points to the need for buffer zones between and around protected areas to provide

any meaningful protection and security for the animals.”

The FRNF hosted members of the BCTS staff recently in a tour of the area that is to be logged.

During the tour, their concerns were expressed over the harm that logging would do in terms of animal habitat, disruption of the water supply and recreational use.

After the tour, Bowden emailed the FRNF. “I appreciate you and others taking time to visit the area with us and see first-hand what we are planning to do in the way of road upgrades and timber harvesting,” he wrote. “From my review of events of the day nothing came forward that would cause me to reconsider our plans for the development of Lynch Creek. We are operating firmly within requirements of the Kootenay Boundary Land Use Plan and Forest Legislation and have applied sound professional judgment in the development of road and block prescriptions, with consideration to wildlife values including Grizzly bear.”

In his interview with the Gazette, Bowden referred comments to the ministry’s public relations department.

Public Affairs Officer Brennan Clarke told the Gazette he would prepare answers and email them but had not done so by deadline.

Summer Driving Tips Badminton When was the last time you had a rousing game of badminton? Badminton is cost effective, easy to learn, full body workout, and can be enjoyed by all age groups. Some simple rules to keep in mind when you are playing for fun: • The “regulation” height for a badminton net is 5 feet.

• The aim of badminton is to hit the shuttle with your racket so that it passes over the net and lands inside your opponent’s court. Whenever you do this, you have won a rally; once the shuttle touches the ground, the rally is over.

• You must hit the shuttle once only before it goes over the net.

• in badminion, the serve must be hit in an upwards direction, with an underarm hitting action. You are not allowed to play a tennis style serve. The rule is that when you hit the shuttle, it must be below your waist.

• Every time you win a rally, you get a point. Starting from zero, the first person to reach 21 points wins the game.

• Whenever you win a rally, you also get the next serve. So if your opponent was serving in the last rally, the serve passes to you; if you were serving, you keep on serving.

1923 Hon. Dr. King, federal minister of public works, and Hon. Dr. MacLean, minister of education, visited the area en route to an inspection tour of the new CascadeRossland highway.

1928 The Highland Lass Co. of Beaverdell made an excellent strike on their claims on Wallace Mountain, exposing a 24-inch vein of high grade ore carrying ruby and native silver.

1933 As a preliminary step to the organization of a local Gyro club, the Grand Forks Service Club was formed with Arthur E. Gilpin as president, Dr. W.D. Smith as vice-president, Basil Flynn as secretarytreasurer and Klaus Scheer as sergeant at arms.

1938 The Boundary area lost another pioneer when Angus Duncan McLennan, 77, died at Rock Creek after living in the Boundary for 40 years.

All youths, whether skateboarders or not, will have a place to go that they can call their very own as council agreed that a youth park would be a necessity for the community. The plan is to create three phases: a skatepark; then a rec area (possibly with picnic tables and children’s activities); and thirdly, a youth drop-in centre.

City releases annual report, aims to streamline

JIM HOLTZ

For the Grand Forks Gazette

The City of Grand Forks has ambitious goals for 2013, many of which have already been completed.

As outlined in the recently released city annual report, each department has developed goals which Mayor Brian Taylor and new Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Doug Allin are confident will contribute to the city’s improvement and development.

The new (2013) corporate and administrative services department has goals that are all about streamlining the city’s operations and improving communication within the city and with the public.

Both Allin and Taylor have a priority of making the public’s access to city officials and documents as simple as possible.

Under Allin’s leadership as CAO, the process of streamlining and clarifying procedures and communication has already begun. The department’s goal of easing access to public contracts, bylaws and policies, city reports and records via the Grand Forks website has made access relatively simple.

The process of review of city policies and procedures is a primary goal in other departments as well.

In development and engineering, building and zoning bylaws as well as subdivision and development bylaws are being reviewed and redeveloped. Fees and charges will

News tips

also be reviewed and altered if necessary.

The department of environmental and building construction services will be taking on the role of the city bylaw enforcement officer to improve compliance with the city’s bylaws.

The new Municipal Ticketing Information Bylaw, which could be approved soon by council, contains the schedule of fees and penalties that will accompany bylaw infractions.

Fire department/emergency services will launch a benefits program for volunteers as it continues to upgrade training for them. First responder, swiftwater, high angle and confined spaces training are in the works for 2013.

Public works will complete the second of the three-year cemetery grave restoration program in 2013, as well as work on the infield at James Donaldson Park. They have a program to repair paving, sidewalks and storm drains as well as continue with the downtown hanging basket and beautification. Children will appreciate the improvements to the City Park tot lot the department has planned.

As part of the city’s overall plan to streamline and clarify policies and procedures, the finance department will be reviewing and updating many of its operations including purchasing and risk management.

Details of the annual report are available at the city’s website, www.city.grandforks.bc.ca.

z GOVERNMENT

Council to talk infrastructure, deer and Hwy 3 with ministers at UBCM

JIM HOLTZ

For the Grand Forks Gazette

Representatives of Grand Forks hope to convince provincial ministry officials that increased co-operation between levels of government is essential.

That is the theme that runs through the submissions the city will make to three separate ministries at the annual Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) Convention in Victoria in September.

At a special meeting of council on July 8, the decision was made to address the issues of infrastructure funding, urban deer population and co-ordination of planning with communities along Highway 3.

The first priority for the city will be to discuss cost sharing with the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Coralee Oakes.

According to Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, changes in funding policies on the part of the provincial and federal governments have created a funding deficit that municipalities cannot deal with. Infrastructure spending had been shared for the last number of years equally between the three levels of government. That is no longer the case.

“On the infrastructure issue, we met two years ago with two other communities,” Taylor said.

“Cranbrook and Lake Country were at the same level we were at. Working with our consultants, they had realized the problem, gone out and analyzed the infrastructure deficit, come up with a plan – in terms of what you would attack first in an attempt to bring infrastructure levels up – and then worked out a financial plan. In our financial plan, we got permission to borrow money.”

Unfortunately, with a change in the funding formula, the planned infrastructure improvements were no longer affordable for Grand Forks or other municipalities.

The second item the city will bring up with Steve Thomson, minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, is the urban deer problem. As in other communities, the presence of deer inside the city’s boundaries has created

an untenable situation for local government. Taylor said that they are faced with two opposing factions, each equally committed to their point of view. On the one hand many residents find the deer a problem, damaging gardens and ornamental trees and creating a health hazard with their waste. On the other hand many residents feel obligated to feed the deer to maintain the health of animals they fear are undernourished.

“In other communities, like Invermere, court cases have stymied attempts to cull the deer,” Taylor said, leading to huge legal expenditures by local government. He added that Grand Forks would like to explore a variety of ways to reduce the problem, consulting with the community to look at options. “We see education as important,” Taylor said, “As well as signage, planning highway crossing points to control the number of deer related accidents, pruning or removing unprotected fruit trees and encouraging the deer to move out of the city by providing attractive habitat for them beyond city limits.”

Coun. Gary Smith agreed that the topic deserves to be given serious attention by the ministry.

“This downloading of responsibility onto the municipalities is untenable,” Smith said. “It is their responsibility and they’re not taking charge and if there isn’t some responsibility on the provincial government to empower municipalities to deal with urban animals, wildlife period, then we’re going to be facing the same situation Invermere is, with groups that are pro deer or pro cull.”

Todd Stone, the minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, will also be meeting with the city’s representatives to discuss greater inclusion of the Boundary and Kootenay cities along Highway 3 in the planning of improvements to the highway. “So far, most of the work has been concentrated either around Princeton or at the Alberta border,” Taylor said. Council felt that the provincial government had an obligation to include municipalities in highway planning because of the huge impact highway improvements can have on individual communities.

A DIVISION OF BLACK PRESS – PRINTED EVERY WEDNESDAY. Mailing address: Box 700, Grand Forks, B.C. V0H 1H0 Street address: 7255 Riverside Drive, Grand Forks

z Our View

Only lowest of low would steal from Grand Forks SAR As witnessed by the police report that Grand Forks RCMP supplies the Grand Forks Gazette with regularly, thefts happen in Grand Forks.

It might be someone breaking and entering a residence, it might be a break-and-enter (B&E) into a locked or unlocked car or it may even be a B&E into a tool shed.

Regardless of when and where or how small and insignificant the item, B&Es and theft are wrong.

Which makes the theft from a storage unit of close to $7,000 in items from Grand Forks Search and Rescue more egregious.

Six Icom UHF radios, six Kenwood radios, six Delorme GPS tracking units and the batteries for each of the radios were taken sometime between February and July 9 – while the functions of the radios and units may not be familiar to the layperson, you can be assured it is for search and rescue members.

The items are not mundane and are necessary for Grand Forks Search and Rescue to perform its function, which is even more valuable given the increased number of people that will be tubing and swimming due to the great weather the area has been receiving lately.

Communication is of the utmost importance in search and rescue operations, as the ability to pass information on quickly can increase efficiency and that is especially important when dealing with a life or death situation.

As well, the aim of a search and rescue group, as stated on the B.C. Search and Rescue Association website, is to provide “volunteer search and rescue services” and the theft will hinder the group’s efforts.

There have been reports of people stealing iPads from wheelchair-bound patients and while this isn’t on the same level, it is an act that is disappointing and one that many will frown upon.

Incidents where the group is needed can pop up at any time and if it occurs in the near future, it will be minus some key pieces of equipment, which isn’t a good situation.

Stealing is plain wrong, especially when it’s from Grand Forks Search and Rescue.

They say you can’t return home, but I say phooey to that.

I’d like to introduce myself to the fine folks in Grand Forks.

My name is Craig Lindsay and I’m the new reporter at the Grand Forks Gazette.

My journey here has been an interesting and enlightening one but I am sure glad to be back in the Koots.

I worked at nearby Castlegar at the newspaper there as a reporter/photographer. You may have seen some of my stories and/or photos in the West Kootenay Advertiser or if you picked up a copy of the Castlegar News. I was there for almost two years.

After a brief stint in Merritt as the editor of the Herald newspaper there, I have returned and I’m looking forward to getting to know the community and the people.

If Grand Forks is anything like Castlegar, and I have high hopes that it is, the people and the area

z On the Ball

CRAIG LINDSAY

will be of the highest calibre.

Before Castlegar, I graduated from the University of Victoria with an English degree.

I worked at papers in Brooks, Alta. and Cranbrook in the East Kootenay.

I enjoy all different types of sports from hockey to soccer to volleyball but my favourite is definitely basketball. I have coached for over 25 years and even had a chance to coach some Grand Forks players on a BC Summer Games’ team a few years back.

That experience was great. The Grand Forks girls and their families were all fabulous and were great hosts when we practiced here.

I also enjoy playing basketball and have even been known to referee the occasional game.

Among my other interests are movies, computers, writing and video games.

I follow popular culture and I’m sure from time to time you will read my thoughts on the latest TV shows, music or video games.

I was a Rotarian in Castlegar and enjoyed getting to know a very service-oriented crew of people through that group.

I also love that Grand Forks is right in the middle between where my mom lives in the Okanagan and where my sister and her family are in Cranbrook.

Being an editor in Merritt was fine, but I’m happy to leave that to Karl here.

Being a reporter is great in that you get to be out and about and meeting people and getting to know the pulse of the community.

LETTERS z BUSINESSES

A simple ‘hello’ goes a long way Editor: Re: Businesses need to be more welcoming (letter, June 19 issue) In addition to E. Faminoff’s letter to the editor, here is a lesson well learned.

At the young age of 16, during the ‘40s, I felt proud to be chosen to work in a local grocery store. Not knowing my boss was watching my behaviour, I was talking to a friend while another customer walked in. I did not acknowledge the new customer by saying, “Hello,” “Hi” or even waving.

Luckily for me, the customer shopped anyways.

When there was no one in the store, my boss called me into the office and this was the conversation. “When a customer walks in, acknowledge him

or her by a smile, a ‘hello’ or a ‘hi.’ The customer is noticed and feels good and shops.”

He told me, “If you think I am the one that is paying your wages, you are wrong. I only write the cheque. It is the customer who pays your wages.

If he or she does not come in, I will not need you. So the customer is very important.”

Our little city is beautiful and clean with lovely hanging baskets and beautiful containers full of flowers but if we don’t have the friendly personnel and good customer service in our shops, it won’t make people shop local. A smile and hello doesn’t cost anything – the result may surprise us.

Youth not involved in status quo politics On July 1, Mayor Brian Taylor spoke briefly to a Canada Day crowd gathered at Gyro Park in Grand Forks.

He said he had been asked to talk about youth and had ROY RONAGHAN chosen to comment on its disconnection from civic affairs.

His specific concerns were that most youth don’t vote and don’t volunteer.

Taylor’s solution to these problems (if they are problems) is to simply embrace the electronic world of iPads, smartphones and other devices of choice of young people and eventually make it possible for them to vote electronically.

The idea came to him during a visit of four young people to his home recently.

They sat around the kitchen table texting and tweeting while he sat in an adjacent room. They were engaged, but not with one another.

The suggestion that we must join young people in their world of electronic devices has some merit but we must ask some harder questions about their lack of engagement in community. Why are they disconnected? Why are they not involved in politics as we experience it?

Lea Williams, a 24-year-old living in England argues, in an essay published in the New Internationalist, that young people are involved in politics and it is the politicians who must change.

She says, “There needs to be a shift, not to engage young people in politics, for we are already engaged … It is the politicians who need to get engaged and start listening to us. We would get engaged in the mainstream if the political elites bothered to engage with our politics.”

Murray Dobbin, a resident of Powell River and journalist and social activist, addresses the lack of involvement of the majority of people in a recent posting on his blog.

Dobbin is critical of the political system we continue to support, that works fine for the elites and corporations that feed off of it. He states, “The multi-party system is designed to be dominated by money and increasingly sophisticated marketing, micro-targeting and data mining. Disengaged citizens haven’t a prayer in dealing with the modern electoral machine.”

The recent election campaign in B.C. was a prime example of what Dobbin says.

Surely Taylor doesn’t want youth and older voters who stay away from voting places to continue to support a system that is far from democratic and lacking in integrity.

Dobbin talks about the political game that is played during elections across the country.

He says, “Left wing parties try to play this game but inevitably come up short. The ‘game’ has been designed not to represent the needs of people or communities but to manage capitalism in the interests of the elites. As soon as you accept the rules of this game that is what you end up doing. The electoral contest is inherently corrupting of genuine democracy.”

Surely Taylor doesn’t want youth and older voters who don’t vote to continue to support a system that is far from democratic and presents itself as corrupt. Where might we begin to change the game?

Dobbin says, “A key to this goal is to be found at the level of civic politics. It is the level of government closest to people in their daily lives and presents a scale of politics with the most potential for community building.

According to Dobbin, if those with progressive ideas wish to succeed in changing the system, they will have to engage people at the community level year round.

There is your challenge, Mr. Mayor. Engage people in meaningful dialogue about the issues they face in Boundary Country.

Give them face-to-face opportunities to talk about the issues and above all, listen to what they have to say.

If young people are engaged in the decision-making processes, and if they feel that their contribution is valued, when it comes time to cast a vote it won’t be necessary to make it easier because the odds are that they will want to be part of the action.

NEWS ❚ POLICE REPORT

Search and rescue missing radios, Lake patrols continue

CRAIG LINDSAY Gazette Reporter

Some time between February and July 9, several items were stolen from the Grand Forks Search and Rescue truck, which was parked at a storage unit east of town. Stolen were six Icom UHF radios, six Kenwood radios, six Delorme GPS tracking units and 12 batteries for each of the sets of radios.

The approximate value of the items stolen is between $6,500 and $7,000.

“The GPS units are described as being contained in an orange/red cloth bag,” said Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. “All of them were in a large pelican style case, orange in colour.

Unfortunately, what happened was that the Grand Forks Search and Rescue team was called out for a missing person complaint and later discovered that all the items were missing. There was no sign of forced entry into the vehicle.”

Harrison said the theft is a big blow to the local search and rescue.

“They need this equipment to do their work,” he told the Gazette. “We’re really disappointed that someone would do this to an organization that is responsible for helping save people’s lives.”

Anyone with any information on the stolen items is asked contact the Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288.

Driver crashes through barbed wire On July 8 at 7:46 p.m., Grand Forks RCMP received a report of a single motor vehicle accident 14 kilometres up the North Fork and Granby Road area.

“The vehicle, which was a 1995 Jeep Cherokee, was found by police in the east ditch facing east with the front tires in the ditch,” said Harrison.

“The driver’s side front wheel was badly damaged. It appears the driver was driving north on Granby, missed the corner and went through a barbed wire fence. The driver then proceeded to take out a fence pole while driving through the field.”

In attempting to get out of the field, the driver drove through another fence pole and by so doing damaged the wheel and lost control, ending up in the ditch hood first, said Harrison.

“We did track down who the owner of the vehicle is,” said Harrison. “We’re looking at laying charges of failing to remain at the scene of an accident, driving with no insurance, driving without due care and attention, and having a wrong number plate on the vehicle.”

Harrison told the Gazette that the driver had switched the plates from a different vehicle and placed them on the Cherokee.

Several boaters on Christina Lake receive warnings Last week, RCMP issued 18 written warnings for boating infractions on Christina Lake.

“For most of them, people are being given time to produce the documents and safety equipment that they are required to have on their boats,” said Harrison.

He added that the local RCMP is very active on the water checking vessels for safety and that will continue throughout the summer.

“The most common problems were, we found people without their registration papers for their vessel, or they don’t have the vessel properly marked, or they’re missing certain safety equipment that they’re required to have such as fire extinguishers, flashlights, baling cans, and that type of thing,” said Harrison.

RCMP reserve Const. Chris Cottrill is checking vessels at the lake for safety, something that will happen throughout the summer.

Al Donnelly, who took the above photo, recalls the history of the road tunnel near Greenwood known by some as the “Tunnel of Fears.”

bed. But the design was questioned and Greenwood Mayor Frederic W. McLaine wired the following lettergram to Sir Richard McBride, premier, and W.J. Bowser, attorney-general of British Columbia, on July 14, 1913, pleading with the powers to be to stop the CPR from continuing the tunnel construction.

“I respectfully call your immediate attention to the fact that the Canadian Pacific Railway Company is continuing the construction of a tunnel for the Public Highway at its bridge in the north end of this city, at an angle which prevents drivers of automobiles and teams from seeing approaching vehicles until both will be actually in the tunnel. The approach and tunnel will be about 120 feet in length, and low, and not of a width to permit a load of hay and team to pass therein.

AL DONNELLY

This summer marks the 100th anniversary of the construction of the road tunnel at the north end of the City of Greenwood, now commonly referred to as the “Tunnel of Flags”. One hundred years ago, some people in the Boundary district might have been calling the new structure the “Tunnel of Fears”.

In 1913, the Canadian Pacific Railway was in the process of replacing the old trestle and truss bridge built in 1899 spanning Boundary Creek and the wagon road (now Highway 3) just north of the city. A rock and gravel fill was replacing the old wooden structure; a onelane road tunnel (and sizable stone-walled culvert for the creek) was designed to take traffic under the new rail-

ask you to refer to such finding. If permitted to be completed, the tunnel will be a death trap and a permanent menace to life and property, since with the advent of automobiles it is necessary to have a clear view of approaching vehicles; and being long and low and dark, it will be a resort of hold-uppers and other criminals.

“A meeting of the electors has been called to protest against this menace. I am fighting for the safety of our citizens and the travelling public, and to protect them from robbery and worse. It will be unsafe for women to enter such a tunnel unprotected.”

Mayor McLaine’s fears apparently fell on deaf ears as a month later, with no change made in the design of the tunnel, the superintendent of the CPR for the Boundary district pronounced the tunnel to be completed and no alterations or improvements were to be done.

the district (for better or worse) for the next 50 years.

In 1964, the one-lane tunnel was replaced with a two-lane road tunnel. The old tunnel was filled in with earth.

But it would surface again.

When the CPR abandoned the railroad throughout the district in 1990 and started removing infrastructure, the fill above the highway was removed. As there was no longer a need for a tunnel on the highway, the two-lane tunnel was destroyed. The 1913 onelane road tunnel was then unearthed and given by the CPR to the City of Greenwood as a heritage landmark.

Today’s concerns for the tunnel have nothing to do with Mayor McLaine’s fears of a “death trap” and a “resort of hold-uppers and other criminals”. One hundred years later, concerns revolve around the issues of what to do with a landmark that has become an eye-sore; and how serious are we about wanting to preserve interesting pieces of Boundary district heritage.

When Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) student Maxwell Nicholson entered the Discover Trades BC contest, he never thought that he would come this far.

But with the helpful votes from friends, family, and local supporters Nicholson and his videographer Nate Klassen won.

Nicholson explained that he found out about winning the contest from his brother. “Gerald told me when I got home and I didn’t really believe him,” Nicholson said. After he found out, he called friend Klassen, who had nearly the same reaction – upon finding out, both said they were extremely excited.

The boys explained that making the video was the easy part.

Teacher Ann Thompson graciously let them film in the cooking classroom at GFSS and filming took about an hour. However they did run into some trouble when trying to upload the video to the Discover Trades BC website. The boys spent close to five hours uploading and it would not work. Nicholson finally emailed the president, who helped them.

Voting was opened to the public on the BC Trades website for the

uploaded videos. The 10 with the most votes were then examined by a panel of four judges. The grand prize awarded to the boys was a MacBook Pro laptop. However, instead of one getting the prize of the laptop, they sold it and Nicholson and Klassen split the money.

The other half of the prize was $2,000 for Grand Forks Secondary School. This money will go towards trade programs at the high school and some of it will be used to sponsor students interested in trades to compete at a Skills Canada competition next year.

As for future plans, after graduating 17-year-old Nicholson is interested in doing a four-year business degree and then after, getting some culinary training with the aim of his opening his own business.

Klassen, though not inclined to bake himself, would like to pursue a degree in film. The 14-year-old hopes to move from his small YouTube channel to one day film commercials and movies.

Currently Nicholson operates his small baking business Alaythia Cakes and to try his wares, go to the Farmers’ Market at Gyro Park on Tuesdays and Fridays.

He would like to thank everyone for their support locally and provincially, and is ecstatic that his trade is being recognized.

(worth $21) GRAND FORKS from the Rotary Club of ROTARY CLUB We now accept Visa, MasterCard & Debit Grand Forks and the Rotary Foundation.

The grant enables the community garden to install a drip irrigation system and demonstrate water conservation techniques to the community in a public workshop on Tuesday, July 23.

“Residents of Grand Forks love to garden. But our large lots and watering practices mean we have very high domestic water use compared to other communities in the region,” said Graham Watt, Rotarian and volunteer with the community garden.

Home gardeners have many options for reducing water use, including building soil with mulch and compost, capturing rain water in barrels or changing irrigation practices.

Drip irrigation can reduce water use in the garden by up to 75 per cent, and targets the needs of individual plants and crops, such as watering the root zone of tomatoes instead of the leaves.

“The drip irrigation being installed in the community garden is a perfect example of a simple and effective way everyone can make a difference in water conservation,” said Grace McGregor, Rotarian and chair of the Kettle River Watershed 222 Market Ave. • 250-442-0014 Management Plan advisory group.

Gardeners are looking forward to other benefits too, according to Christine-Ann Baker, co-ordinator of the Kettle River Community Garden. “The drip irrigation will cut down on the weeds that are being watered with the overhead sprinklers,” she said.

Y&R Water will install the system this week and help train garden members in using and maintaining the system.

“Each of the garden beds will have their own shutoff,” explains Mike Jones from Y&R. “Gardeners will then be able to fine-tune their beds with drip lines or spray emitters – it’s really easy to change it up during the growing season.”

“The Grand Forks Rotary Club is involved in many international projects in education, health care and other areas,” said Wayne Christensen of the Grand Forks Rotary Club. “We are very pleased to have a local project that contributes to water conservation and sustainability here in Grand Forks.”

The Rotary Foundation is matching the contribution of the Grand Forks club to the project under a district community grant.

“Water conservation, food security and wellness are all high priority issues for Grand Forks and the Boundary region as well as for the Rotary Foundation,” said Watt. “It’s great to support the community garden in meeting these needs.”

The Kettle River Community Garden and the Rotary Club of Grand Forks will host the free public workshop at the garden in the evening of July 23 from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

This workshop will show garden and community members how to use drip irrigation to conserve water and make gardening easier and more productive. Registration information and directions can be found at http://www.eventbrite.com/

LOGO CONTEST ON NOW! The Co-op is looking for a new graphic to use in all our printed advertising.

Can you help us?

Submit your ideas electronically until August 31. The winning entry will be announced and displayed at our Harvest Festival later in September.

The winner will receive a Consumer Membership to the Co-op ($50 value) and $200 worth of Co-op products...a taste of the good life in Grand Forks.

Kristy Kuromi (centre) with sons Tao and Sage with some chicks.

Kettle Valley Food Co-op consumer member Kristy K u r o m i JAN was born in WESTLUND Grand Forks, moved to Creston as a young girl and experienced both Calgary and Canmore, Alta. before returning with her husband Keith, to raise their family here.

They were drawn home by one of the things she cherishes most about this town: it’s an ideal place for young families to put down roots and thrive, if work can be found.

Kristy is passionate about growing healthy, secure, connected families in her professional and her personal life and thinks this is a good place to do it.

As so many people in Grand Forks do, Kristy wears a variety of hats: outreach support for Baby’s Best Chance at the Boundary Family and Individual Services Society, prenatal educator at Selkirk College, enthusiastic doula, figure skating instructor, home-schooling mom and whole food advocate.

In her mind, nurturing happy, well-adjusted kids are linked in a very meaningful way to the quality of their food and a connection to the natural world that provides it.

For this reason, the Kuromis were early co-op supporters and are frequent shoppers, looking for the best this valley has to offer and to extend the season and variety of their own lush vegetable garden.

z Shedding Light on the Food Co-op

Thank you I would like to thank my family and all my friends who expressed their concern and their offer to help during my recent accident.

I greatly appreciate all the help I received from the ambulance attendants, and all the rest of the people that were there for me.

Thank you all, and God bless you!

Surrounded by a fertile, one-third acre laden with fruit and vegetables, chickens and bees, sons Tao and Sage, 7 and 3 respectively, understand even at this early age where their food comes from.

Trips to the food co-op on distribution days offer additional teachable moments for Kristy and her sons.

Tao is able to grasp why eating food that is grown around him, by people he knows and can visit, is a better choice than buying produce grown in unknown conditions then trucked long distances.

Kristy echoes that sentiment, enthusing about the ease of phoning up a farmer directly to question or chat about the food or handcrafted product she’s just purchased.

Even better, she appreciates the ability to take her kids out to roam around, as she’s done several times at Jerseyland Dairy and Slow Kettle Farm, two of the co-op’s listed producers.

Evidence is that toxic residues in food, water and air are much more harmful to vulnerable young, developing bodies than to adults.

This is why Kristy prioritizes quality food for her family.

She also considers her opportunities to make regular bulk purchases through the co-op as an extension of personal food security.

The Kuromis order organic staples in large quantities for storage, which helps bring down the price. It also ensures kitchen-ready access, year-long, to the pure ingredients she knows her young family needs to flourish.

From the Mayor’s Desk July 2013

Mayor Brian Taylor CANADA DAY CONGRATS!!

Thanks to all of the organizers and numerous volunteers for putting together the many wonderful activities and events for this year’s celebration; and to the community and visitors alike for attending and experiencing the vitality, fun and the many talents that our fantastic City has to offer!

RECENT CITY HIGHLIGHTS: CITY BRANDING – This winter, the City underwent a Branding exercise and after 3 months of community consultations, our new logo was created along with the story of our community.

The logo is simple and easy to use, and we encourage groups and organizations to utilize the logo. We want to send a consistent message about our community. For more information on Logo use and guidelines, please contact info@grandforks.ca.

DOWNTOWN BEAUTIFICATION – This spring, the City Works department began the transformation of the downtown core in addition to the entry and exit corridors to the City. Some of the eye catching amenities include hanging baskets and potted planters; banners, lights and additional trees as well as sidewalk repairs to create sense of space.

CITY SPONSORED EVENTS – During the month of June and early July the City sponsored the following events: Relay for Life; Babe Ruth Baseball; Farmer’s Market; Canada Day Bands in City Park; Canada Day Celebrations CROSSING BOUNDARIES PROGRAM – In May, the City took advantage of this program and has two Brazilian Engineering Students working with and learning about our community.

To date they have been working with the Granby Wilderness Society and additionally have assisted the planning and engineering department at City Hall.

DID YOU KNOW..............

WATER AWARENESS – Our water – every drop counts: help us to conserve one of our most valuable resources. If your water use habit resembles those of an average Grand Forks resident, you use about 720 litres per day of water – that’s more than 3,000 cups of water per day and about 1/3 more than the average British Columbian! By conserving water, electricity costs associated with pumping our water, as well as wear and tear on the pumps, would be reduced by up to 25%.

COMMITTEE HIGHLIGHTS ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE – Spent time with elementary school children building Solar Cars for their yearly races. Additionally, the Nephelometer continues to monitor air quality throughout the City and Area D. DEER COMMITTEE – Is developing a Deer Management Plan for the City and is currently looking at education as a priority in Deer Management.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE – The committee continues their work with the Downtown Businesses and with the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce to develop partnerships in the development of innovative ideas to economically enhance our area.

PUT THIS ON YOUR FUTURE RADAR.......

NEW GRAND FORKS ENTRANCE SIGNAGE! The construction of two Grand Forks entrance signs are currently underway and are expected to be installed either late July or early August. These signs will be located both East and West of the City.

REVITALIZATION TAX EXEMPTIONS BYLAW – The City is currently working on the development of a bylaw that would intend to offer tax exemptions for downtown building revitalization. Public engagement and feedback session will be scheduled for this fall 2013.

Historical society needs community help for 16th report ❚ Local Submission BOUNDARY HISTORICAL SOCIETY

Babies and children are extra sensitive to the sun, and protecting their skin is paramount. Luckily, with good sun habits, including proper clothing and sunscreen, children can enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities without risking their health.

Infants under 6 months of age should be kept out of the sun.

Their skin is too sensitive for sunscreen.

An infant’s skin possesses little melanin, the pigment that gives color to skin, hair and eyes and provides some sun protection. Therefore, babies are especially susceptible to the sun’s damaging effects.

6-12 months: It’s now safe to use sunscreen on babies.

All the protection methods explained above still apply; however now sunscreen use should be incorporated.

Toddlers/Pre-School Age - Protecting toddlers from the sun requires a little more thought and effort. It is important to educate your child and caregivers.

• Make sure your child seek the shade between 10 AM and 4 PM. Check the outdoor area where your child plays to make sure there is adequate shade.

• Make sure toddlers are covered. Hats with wide brims and sunglasses protect the face, neck and ears. Long-sleeved, unbleached cotton is cool and comfortable, while also highly protective. Clothing with an Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) listing on the label offers extra security.

• Water-resistant, spray-on sunscreens are a good choice for toddlers who won’t sit still.

Look for broad-spectrum sunscreens with an SPF 15 or higher. taken from www.skincancer.org 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.

Success by 6® is a locally based initiative in partnership with:

Phoenix Foundation of the Boundary Communities • Ministry of Children & Family Development • Grand Forks Credit Union

is a proud supporter of this community initaitive

Fifty-five years ago in September of 1958, the BHS or Boundary Historical Society – then only seven years old – published its first report, a collection of stories and articles documenting the early days of towns and camps throughout the Boundary district of southern British Columbia.

These first histories and reminiscences were written by true pioneers of the district, including Marjorie Reynolds, Ted McArthur Sr.

and Carl Thomet.

Over the years, the BHS has published 15 reports, all providing a wealth of historical and educational material for succeeding generations.

Now in 2013, members of the BHS are preparing a new collection of family, municipal, business and industry histories for the publication of the 16th report. And it is asking for help in accomplishing this task from residents who have stories to tell.

A great many have already volunteered to provide information and vintage photographs. But so far, only a few have submitted finished copy.

Time to gather everything together for this publication is running out.

Society members are will-

ing to help those who require assistance with their articles and stories. There is still time to get your heritage preserved in print.

Sue Adrain, community archivist, is the primary contact for submissions and can be reached at Grand Forks City Hall at 250-442-8266 or at the Boundary Museum at 250442-3737. You can also email your submissions to boundarymuse@shaw.ca. Other members of the society have been assigned as contacts for those who have already indicated their intentions of making a submission. You will be contacted directly by those members. Look for the 16th report to be printed in early 2014, with a little help from Boundary area budding historians.

Urging boaters to help keep lakes clean z Local Submission CHRISTINA LAKE STEWARDSHIP SOCIETY

At the start of July, the Christina Lake Stewardship Society, in partnership with

the Boundary Invasive Species Society, began voluntary boat inspections and public education at the Texas Point boat launch.

The initiative for this project is to prevent Zebra and Quagga mussels from entering Christina Lake, which would cause serious ecological, recreational and economic problems for the area.

Members of the societies will be at the boat launch for three days every week

throughout July and August, providing the public with educational material and teaching boaters the proper way to clean, drain, and dry their watercrafts.

Cruise on down to the boat launch, and get educated, so that we can “Help keep our lake clean!”

Turners say goodbye to School District 51 PAT KELLY

Boundary Creek Times

School District 51 (Boundary) has undergone some significant shuffling in the administration ranks with the end of the school year.

Superintendent Michael Strukoff and Director of Instruction Maxine Ruzicka retired and Darryl and Jennifer Turner will be leaving the district too.

Darryl was the principal of Greenwood and Midway Elementary Schools for the past eight years and Jennifer has filled many roles in the district over that time. With a degree as a psychologist, she has served as district vice-principal of student services and as principal of Walker Development Centre in Grand Forks and Big White Community School.

Many of the students at Greenwood Elementary have never had another school principal than Mr. Turner.

He will be taking the position of principal at Edgewater Elementary, which is

located 11 kilometres north of Radium.

Jennifer will become the assistant superintendent of District 6, based in Invermere and covering the region from Kimberly to Golden, B.C. The couple sees some advantages: A better commute for one and they will be closer to their oldest daughter, who graduated from Boundary Central Secondary

School (BCSS) two years ago, and now works in northing Alberta.

“I am going to miss the Boundary,” said Darryl. “It is a good place to raise kids.

They need to be careful to preserve what they have got here.”

The family moved to the Boundary 10 years ago, after putting in 10 years in the education system in northern Alberta

and another two in Okotoks, Alta.

They both spent their first two years in the Boundary teaching at BCSS. Jennifer recalls that their two youngest children were just born when they moved to the Boundary.

“We have lots of close friends,” she said. “The Boundary will always be part of our lives and memories.”

Pat Kelly Photo

Jennifer said that the district has worked hard to be innovative and a large part of the puzzle are the partnerships formed across the community. She called the Boundary School District a model of good practice in the province.

“Thank you for the warm welcome and the opportunity to raise our family in such a wonderful place,” she concluded.

Under the request for proposals launched recently, the first step in building the system has been taken.

A key feature of the upgrade will be an electronic service, which hunters will be able to access 24 hours a day, seven days a week to purchase their hunting licences and apply for Limited Entry Hunting (LEH) opportunities.

Currently, licences and LEH applications can only be purchased from Service BC offices or licensed vendors, many of which are not available over the weekend or non-business hours.

The new electronic licensing service will be efficient, convenient, easy to use and increase cost effectiveness in a time of fiscal re-

straint.

Resident hunters will have easier access to hunter services, increasing participation, and guide outfitters’ in-camp clients will be able to obtain licences without waiting for a vendor to open or travelling to a vendor location.

The system will also help the province meet important resource management objectives to ensure the health and sustainability of wildlife populations.

The electronic system will create a single point of reference for data collection, including compulsory inspection information, guide outfitter hunter reports and resident hunter harvest information, all of which will feed directly into timely and more informed wildlife management decisions.

The ministry is targeting the 2015-16 hunting season to have the new service in place.

The B.C. government is inviting bids to design the upgrade, and those wishing to submit a proposal should visit the BC Bid website at: www.bcbid.gov.bc.ca (click “Browse,” then choose “by organization,” click “Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations” then select “Document No ITP-011 Consultants: IT Systems Transformation”).

Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.

Red Cross lessons offered z GFREC Report

KIM JOHNSON

The Canadian Red Cross is one of the most respected brands in the world. Its swim programs have been around for more than 60 years. Over one million Canadians enroll yearly in learn-to-swim programs or train to become certified water safety instructors.

Red Cross swim programs are active, engaging and age appropriate. All classes are standardized across Canada, so if a child is taking Red Cross Swim in one community it is easily transferred to another.

Grand Forks Recreation (GFREC) provides learn-to-swim programs throughout the year for children ages six months and up. Our instructors are trained through the Red Cross Water Safety Instructor Development program and guide children in safe and active learning.

The second set of Red Cross lessons scheduled for the summer begins Monday, July 22. Classes take place Monday to Friday offering classes for ages three years and up. The final set of lessons for the summer takes place Aug. 12 to 16.

Christina Lake Recreation is providing Red Cross lessons at the public beach the week of July 29 to Aug. 2. Taking lessons in open water is a unique opportunity for kids. Developing swim and safety skills outside of a pool setting emphasizes real life experiences and encourages respect for environmental challenges.

Also taking place at the Christina Public beach is the Bronze Medallion and Bronze Cross Camp. Candidates will become skilled in water safety, life saving and endurance training.

The Bronze camp is the first award necessary in becoming a lifeguard. You must be 13 years of age or older. The course takes place July 29 to Aug. 2 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.

If you are aged eight to 15 and want to challenge yourself by participating in skills, drills and games, register for the Canadian Swim Patrol Camp taking place at the Grand Forks Aquatic Centre Aug. 6 to 9. Swim Patrol is a leadership program geared for younger kids and is ideal for those interested in improving swim stroke and endurance along with safety skills training.

The Red Cross swim lessons and the leadership programs require pre-registration. Contact GFREC for additional information and to register for both Grand Forks and Christina Lake programming.

You can contact us by calling 250-4422202.

Defining integrity in the church z View From The Pulpit MARTIN FROMME

How do people generally define Christianity?

In the sphere of influence that surrounded me when I was a child in the ‘50s, I think the word which summed up what it meant to be a Christian, or simply a believer in God, was integrity.

You kept the commandments. You did not lie, steal, cuss, cheat on your spouse, or have pornography in your possession. One was to respect the church, even if one did not attend.

Punctuality and cleanliness were exalted virtues. Working hard at whatever one did was expected; one was to be dependable as the rising and the setting of the sun.

Authority was to be honoured.

Women were granted a special measure of respect and they were expected to set the highest of standards in their speech and conduct. The value of integrity is mirrored in the words spoken in 1873 by Lord Dufferin, the monarch’s representative, appointed to oversee the affairs of government in the Do-

✁

minion of Canada. He had some reservations about the man he was about to install as the new prime minister, the honourable Alexander Mackenzie.

Mackenzie was not the usual politician. He had no background in law. He was a builder, a stone mason, who had also been the publisher of a political newspaper.

Although he had little formal education, he had considerable education through his private studies – he would have been called a self-made man.

After meeting Mackenzie, Dufferin remarked: “However narrow and inexperienced Mackenzie may be, I imagine he is a thoroughly upright, well-principled, and well-meaning man.”

Dufferin’s reflection on Mackenzie’s character is highly reflective of that invisible plumb line, which lined-up our national ethic in its formative years.

This reflection on integrity has two purposes. The first is to compare the actual Gospel of Jesus to the perceived gospel. People thought they were being Christian by setting high standards for themselves and others – standards which, for sure, had their origins in the Bible and the character of Christ. Jesus didn’t set the bar at the level of highest personal achievement, like getting a high grade on a test in math (another strong value from years past), but on

the ability of God to regenerate a new life. “Truly, truly I say to you, unless less one starts life over again from above, he cannot see the Kingdom of God ... unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.” God’s display of his own righteousness in redeeming our corrupted nature by his own entrance into our inner person is not to be rejected in favour of high moral standards in our social fabric. God, open our eyes to see the transforming work of Jesus in people! On the other hand, it would appear that we now have no national plumb line as we see fraud and deception become common practice from the Internet to Parliament Hill. We are paying a huge price for a diminishing sense of integrity in our nation. Personal integrity in a nation’s citizens builds a strong nation.

So, yes, let’s do our best. Let each one of us be as upright, well-principled, and moral according to every decree God has established for us in the Scriptures. Let our conscience be smitten if we should, in any way, violate the law of God. Then, let us, each one, have a glimpse of the love of God, which surpasses moral excellence, and say, “Lord Jesus, come into my heart, and fill me with your divine nature.”

– Martin Fromme is pastor of the Greenwood Evangel Chapel.

George William Gritchen George William Gritchen was born December 6,1928 at the Gritchen village in Grand Forks, BC to the family of Molly (nee Barisenkoff) and William Gritchen. He had four sisters: two older - Mabel and Polly, and two younger - Molly and Vera. He grew up in the Gritchen village and went to the Fructova school, which is currently home to the Grand Forks museum.

During his teenage years, he picked fruit with his brother-in-law Mike Androsoff in the Okanagan and when not picking fruit, he began working in the forestry industry with his father and continued working full time in the industry until his youngest son, Jim was born. George began farming full time in 1957 specializing in growing vegetables, selling and delivering his vegetables door to door in Rock Creek, Bridesville and Beaverdell. He continued farming full time until his retirement age of 65.

George began dating his beloved Phyllis Makortoff in 1953, and on December 21, 1954 they were married. George and Phyllis began their married life ln the Gritchen village where they started their family. Their first son Gary was born in 1955 and their first daughter, Katherine Sandra was born in 1957. ln 1959 they purchased land in Almond Gardens and began building their dream home which they moved in to in 1960. Their third child daughter Lorralne was born in 1960, just after they moved into their new home and their family was complete with the arrival of their youngest son Jim in 1955.

George and Phyllis were living their dream life, raising children, working the farm and George was happiest riding his tractor, plowing his fields and singing a Russian son. ln his youth, George loved the outdoors and loved to skate at Saddle Lake in the winter and play baseball in the summer. He always loved watching sports on W – especially hockey. Owning and running a farm was a 24/7 job, and although he was not able to travel much, he and Phyllis visited their daughters in Calgary, when their granddaughter was born in 1988 in Toronto, he and Phyllis flew to Toronto {this was the first time flying for both he and Phyllis) and during this trip they also saw one of the Seven Wonders of The World – Niagara Falls. They travelled to Vancouver lsland in 1994 and George actually stood on the shore of the Pacific Ocean....being careful not to go into the frigid cold waters...even though it was the end of July. They also travelled to Reno several times with his sister-in-law and brother-in-law Maureen and Bill Koftinoff. During the years many family day trips were taken to the Okanagan and to Washington State. ln 2005 George became ill and had to sell the beloved farm in 2005 when they moved to their present home on 22nd Street. Phyllis took care of George for 5 years until late 2010 when, she could not take care of him at home. He resided at Sunshine Manor until his passing July 11, 2013.

George was pre-deceased by his son Gary in 2008, his mother Molly in 1950, his father William in 1954, his sister Mable in 2005, her husband Fred Postnikoff in 1989, his sister Polly in 2001, her husband Mike Androsoff in 1992.

George leaves behind his beloved wife of 58 years Phyllis, his daughter Katherine Sandra from Kelowna, his daughter Lorraine and son-in-law David Robertson from Okotoks, Alberta, his son Jim and daughter-in-law Lila from Burnaby, his grandchildren Adam, Luba and her husband Tyler, Sarah, Brent, Molly, Kelsey, Robble, Crystal, Trevor and Graheme and great-grandchildren Mikaela, Blake, Griffin, Kylie and Hailey. George also leaves behind his sister Molly and brother-in-law Peter Podovinikoff of Surrey, BC, his sister Vera and brother-in-law Donald Negrieff of Grand Forks, and his many nieces and nephews.

George was a life-long USCC member and a proud Doukhobour. He instilled his Doukhobour values of toil and peaceful life to his family, may he rest in peace.

A funeral service was held on Monday, July 15, 2013 at the USCC Community Center, Grand Forks, with burial following at the Sion Cemetery, Grand Forks.

Funeral arrangements entrusted to Everett Baker of Grand Forks Funeral Home.

Helen Bates (Rogalsky)

Helen died peacefully in her sleep the morning of July 6, 2013. She was predeceased by her husband Robert, parents John and Mary Rogalsky, sisters Genie Macpherson and Sophie Bell and is survived by her three children Rick (Kelli), Pat, Ken (Janet); grandchildren Tara (Ken), Eric (Ayumi), Dylan (Sarah), Josh, Bronwyn and Maxwell; and great-grandchildren, Audra and Keita. She also leaves behind two sisters, Mary Rogalsky and Stella Bell of Melville, Saskatchewan and brother-in-law Ken Macpherson of Chilliwack as well as many nephews and nieces.

Helen was born in Poland on June 15, 1923 and immigrated to Canada when she was five. Her father settled in Melville, Saskatchewan where he worked for the CNR for many years. She worked in Toronto, Melville and Winnipeg, where she met her future husband. She and Bob married in 1950 and lived in several communities within BC until settling at Christina Lake in 1956 and then moved to Grand Forks in 1966. She continued to live independently after Bob’s passing and was so proud of the fact that she was still living on her own at the age of 90!

Family members gathered on the July long weekend to celebrate her 90th birthday and she had such a wonderful time, as did all. Humble as she was, she couldn’t believe that such a party would be put on for her. She always loved to greet people with a smile and a hug and had a very special way about her with children. She was a gentle spirit with a kind soul.

She will be greatly missed by so many, especially her family. We love you Mom!!

A funeral will take place at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Grand Forks on July 20th at 12:30 pm. In lieu of flowers, a donation to a charity of your choice would be appreciated. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.springfieldfuneralhome. com, 250-860-7077.

Donald Leslie

Reed

Donald Leslie Reed was born on February 22, 1962 in Soellingen, Germany and passed away on March 29, 2013 in Grassland, Alberta.

Don’s working career spanned both coasts from Vancouver to Halifax and up to Fort McMurrary. He was an active and influential member in each of the communities he resided in, being involved in the Masonic lodges, Ashlar Club, the Shrine, Royal Arch Masons, Eastern Star, Ducks Unlimited and the church.

Don enjoyed the outdoors, especially taking his dog duck hunting or going elk/deer hunting with friends. What Don lacked in height he made up for in heart. He could always be easily recognized in his camouflage baseball cap, with an infectious smile. He had an enthusiasm that was easily spread to everyone he met, and he was known for getting things done.

He leaves behind Sheri, his wife of 12 years, and their four children, Bryan, Jared, Andrew and Katelyn. He is also survived by his parents Gordon and Cecile Reed; sister Karen (Clive) Bailey; motherin-law Celia Weishaupt; sister-in-law Jennifer (Jason) Bolen; 4 nephews, Colin, Austin, Allan Bailey and Tyler Bolen; and 3 nieces, April and Alena Bailey, and McKenzie Bolen, as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

A Memorial Service and Celebration of Don’s life was held at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, 7353 6th Street, on July 27, 2013 at 1:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to the charity of your choice.
