This is Fire Prevention Week. What better time for a public meeting of those interested in establishing fire protection in the Kettle Valley/ Rock Creek area? The Monday night meeting at West Boundary Elementary drew between 60 and 70 people who came to hear Midway Mayor Randy Kappes and village fire chief Walter Osellame update the public on the expansion of service proposal and answer their questions. The mayor stressed that now is the time for all those interested in reviewing the agreement being drafted to make sure they are on the mailing list at the village office (250-449-2222). Kappes said that council supports the formation of the service. “They have Midway Mayor Randy Kappes told the public meeting it is his hope that the extension of fire protection by MVFD to rural passed a motion to collect properties happens “sooner rather than later”. the information and prepare tected status—within 26 kilometres end. ing, recognized MVFD. the agreement for approval.

Quote of the Week: Good taste is the enemy of comedy. –Mel Brooks (1926 - ) Joke of the Week: In a class on abnormal psychology, the instructor was about to introduce the subject of manic depression. She posed this question to her students: “How would you diagnose a patient who walks back and forth screaming at the top of his lungs one minute, then sits down weeping uncontrollably the next?” A young man in the rear raised his hand and suggested earnestly, “A football coach?”

Freeman’s carries a great selection of wood burning stoves, including: The West Boundary Literacy group at a recent meeting in Midway. They meet twice a year under the umbrella of CBAL so that those who deliver literacy programs at the grassroots can compare and share their notes and experiences. This is only one of many literacy activities supported by CBAL in the West Boundary. Spruce/Pine/Fir Wood Pellets

Event supports literacy Reach a Reader today – and every day

Today is the day—Thursday, Oct. 10, Black Press and the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) are collecting donations for the 3rd Annual Reach a Reader event! This year proceeds from the sale of the Boundary Creek Times will go to Girl’s Eye View (GEV), a West Boundary initiative that was borne out of the Safer Boundary Initiative six years ago. They meet throughout the school year. The stimulus behind GEV was that parents of tweens recognized a need for programming for their young daughters who were transitioning into adolescence. GEV is now entering its sixth year. Girls meet once a month throughout the school year. Each month has a different theme and the goal is to promote teambuilding and meaningful conversation within the group. Topics include extending babysitting skills through literacy activities, relationships, journaling, beauty and selfcare, healthy choices around drugs and alcohol, the “puberty” talk, and gratitude. The program aims to develop positive self-esteem in young women before they enter high school; to provide a space

FAIR BIT OF WORK A pre-winter work bee was held at the Rock Creek fairgrounds on Sunday followed by a dinner for all the volunteers who helped, both throughout the year and during the fair weekend itself. Here Art Harfman looks after the barbecue pit, which had some 70 pounds of beef roasting over a bed of apple wood.

for young women to speak their own mind and express themselves in a safe and accepting environment, using tools such as photography, journaling and guided conversation. “By making a donation to the Reach a Reader campaign, you are supporting literacy programs in your community,” said Sheila Dobie, CBAL community literacy co-ordinator for the Boundary region. “Thank you for making the difference.” If someone wants to donate and can’t make it to Greenwood, they can call the Times office at 250-445-2233 up to 4:30 p.m. and make a donation by phone. The Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) is the Columbia Basin and Boundaryregion not-for-profit literacy organization. CBAL programs support seniors, adults, families, youth and children of all ages improve English, reading, writing, numeracy, computer and workplace skills. In the Boundary Region, family literacy programs aim to provide parents and caregivers with the skills needed to support their children’s literacy development. As well, CBAL offers a number of adult literacy programs

that provide adult learners with the tools and skills needed to be successful in the modern world. The English as a Second Language Settlement Assistance program provides new Canadians with the fundamentals in English conversation, reading and writing. Basic computer programs offer the beginning computer user the skills needed to use computers on a daily basis. One to One tutoring program helps adults who would like to improve their literacy skills. Trained volunteer tutors offer assistance based on the learner’s goals. All of the adult programs have opportunities for volunteer tutors—this is a remarkable way to give back to our community. Volunteer tutors are given 10 hours of free training and ongoing support and resources. In some cases, volunteers are working with a facilitator, however the One to One program is just that- one on one, learner to tutor. Are you interested in attending a literacy program or volunteering for a literacy program? More information about local literacy programs is available online at cbal.org or contact Sheila Dobie at sdobie@cbal. org or cell 250-584-4109.

Rock Creek residents Pat and Muffy McCutcheon were the winners of a $500 Family Foods gift card at McMynn’s Family Foods in Midway. The in-store draw precedes the Family Foods grand prize draw for free groceries for a year that will take place on Oct. 26. The McCutcheons’ winning ticket now goes back in the hopper with all of the other entries for a chance to win free groceries for a year. Muffy said the only time they’ve ever won in the past was in a recent draw at the same store that gifted them a one-cup coffee maker. The couple made immediate use of the $500 gift card by wheeling a shopping cart around the store and tossing in a few items, including some prime rib. MyMynn’s grocery store in Midway switched to Family Foods as their wholesale supplier in May of this year. Owner Doug McMynn says they are very happy with the changeover and from the feedback they’ve heard so far their customers are as well. Family Foods, a western Canadian food distributor, regularly runs promotions – including an annual contest that benefits a community group in a area served by a Family Foods store. McMynn said he’s looking forward to seeing the Boundary winning one of those some day in the future.

fire prevention as a goal. We want you to be safe.” He said each property that signs up for the service would be visited so that an individualized response plan could be developed that would detail where and how to set up equipment and identify hazardous materials that may be stored there. The audience was told that, depending on their insurer, they could expect savings of up to 60 per cent on premiums if they moved from unprotected to semi-protected status. The fire chief cautioned that the fire department would only be dispatched to those properties that signed an agreement. “If your neighbour is not in, then we can’t respond to their property,” explained Osellame. “Though we can show up to prevent it from spreading to a property owner who subscribes to the service.” Kappes said to-date the approximately $26,576.29 has been spent on the project. Grants and donations covered $10,200 of that; meaning the village has invested $16,376.29 so far. Kappes said that would need to be recovered. He suggested a multi-year agreement so these costs would be

spread over several years. Kappes said a budget has been drawn up based on these startup costs and the average yearly budget for Midway fire department costs. “We’re expecting somewhere between the $45,000 to 50,000 range annual budgets. So if we have 100 subscribers that works out to $450 or 500 per year. If more signed on that price would go down.” Two funding options were discussed: by parcel or an assessment on improvements. Property owner Vlodko Barchuk said he favors the charge per parcel. “Does it cost more for you to come fight my fire just because I have a large home? He said basing the cost on value of improvements would mean he would have to pay more for the same service— though he made a suggestion later endorsed by a show of hands—that there be different rates for residential vs. business, commercial and industrial properties. “Basically we are down to drafting the contract, which relies on the number of people interested so we can put proper costs in,” said Kappes. He identified the next steps as: • Get a solid idea of the number of properties that would be seriously interested in reviewing the agreement. The cost will rise or fall depending on how many subscribe.

• Finish refining those costs and rates, make sure we have included all of the equipment that is going to be necessary, make sure that reserves are established to cover future costs. • Lastly, prepare a draft agreement, which can be agreed upon by all those involved. “When will this happen?” asked Kappes. “Short answer I can’t tell you, but I would very much like to see it happen sooner rather than later.” Les Jackman asked that subscribers be given an annual statement from the village and that there be an annual rate review based on the number of subscribers. Barchuk asked the mayor to post a biweekly or monthly notice in the paper of the goals established for the implementation and an update of progress toward them. “That would be really good for the morale of our guys.” On behalf of the Kettle River Lions, Les Jackman announced that the service club was successful in obtaining a $2,000 gaming grant for the purchase of equipment for the fire department. Osellame said he and the members of the fire department are prepared to answer questions and Kappes closed the meeting by telling everyone he is also available at 250-449-8252.

Council okays bench program Councillor Dick Dunsdon was sitting in the mayor’s chair at the Oct. 7 meeting while Mayor Randy Kappes attended the rural fire protection public meeting in Rock Creek. Councillor Marguerite Rotvold was also away from the meeting. *** Council agreed that members of the Kettle River Museum board of directors would be invited to the next council meeting as a delegation to discuss their financial situation. *** Final adoption was given to bylaws exempting taxation on land and improvements at King of Kings Church, Kingdom Hall of Jehovah Witnesses, curling club and the ambulance bay. *** Village Administrator Penny Feist reported that no properties went to tax sale in Midway this year as taxes were paid prior to the sale date. *** Feist reported that the Midway Trails Society (MTS) has received word from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations that they would like to finalize a partnership agreement

MIDWAY LIBRARY MIDWAY

COUNCIL REPORT

for management of the trails with BC Parks and Recreation. “As the Midway Trails Society does all the planning, construction, maintenance and upgrading he asked if the MTS would be willing to hold the agreement.” Feist reported that Elliott said it makes sense that they hold the agreement for the hiking-biking trails. MTS would have direct contact with the Ministry of Forests (MOF); it would supply annual reports to the ministry and the village. All planning would be done with ministry staff and the village other than minor stuff or annual maintenance. The benefits are that the MOF will take over insurance liabilities providing $2 million third party liability insurance. The MOF will also supply maintenance materials. Two questions were put to council: would they like to place the Hiking-Bik-

ing Trails under agreement; and would they like to place the River Trails under agreement providing it would revert back to the village if the society ever folded? It was decided to refer the matter to a later meeting to gather more information and to give Kappes and Rotvold the opportunity to comment as well. *** Council voted to increase Riverfront Campground rates to $20 and an additional $3 a night for power. *** Council passed a motion to have an Adopt-a-Bench program for some 17 existing benches presently along the trails in the community. Funds raised would be designated for maintenance or replacement of the benches. The Midway Trails Society has agreed to look after maintenance. The cost for five years is $750 plus taxes. The original owners would have first option on renewal of $250 for a further five years. Further information is available at the village office.

First step: honesty The Indian Residential Schools Education Day story (page 13) brings to mind a book-length essay on the nature of racism published in 1970 by Wendell Berry. Berry was born in Henry County, Kentucky in 1934 —long before the civil rights movement. His family had a history in that part of the world that went back at least five generations. His father was a southern lawyer and farmer—his ancestors were farmers and slave owners. In The Hidden Wound he explores the effects of racism—not on the former slaves and their descendants—but upon the dominant white population. “If the white man has inflicted the wound of racism upon black men, the cost has been that he would reflect the mirror image of that wound into himself.” He refers to it as “a profound disorder, as great a damage to his mind as it is to society.” No doubt some of the thoughts in his essay were formed at a time when the amorphous and seldom-spoken-of memories of his family were coming face-to-face with the call from the civil rights movement - that it was long-past time for the truth to be told so that healing could begin. “I want to be cured,” wrote Berry. “I want to be free of the wound myself, and I do not want to pass it on to my children. I feel an obligation to make the attempt, and that I know if I fail to make at least the attempt I forfeit any right to hope that the world will become better than it is now.” BCSS student Sarah Filgate, one of seven students who attended the Residential School Education Day said it well on Tuesday when she told the Board of Education, “Denial will always prolong the healing process and continue to divide Canada’s people. The first step is honesty.”

UBCM delegates call for reforms

Support for a phased approach to local government elections reform, a call for four-year terms and a request to allow Vancouver to make rules related to greater limits on spending and contributions and provide for greater disclosure, were key topics

discussed at a meeting between UBCM and Parliamentary Secretary, Linda Reimer, MLA. On Sept. 25, 2013, UBCM President Rhona Martin and First Vice-President Sav Dhaliwal met with MLA Linda Reimer to convey UBCM’s feedback on the Province’s recently released White Paper on Local Government Elections Reform. UBCM reiterated its support for the phased approach that would implement changes in 2014 to improve accountability, transparency, and compliance and enforcement, but defer implementation of expense

limits until further consultations take place. President Martin expressed support for the phased approach recognizing that more work needed to be done on how best to set expense limits that would work for all of the election players. One of the key messages to MLA Reimer was the need for information, education and advice about the changes to ensure that all players are aware of the new rules and processes that will be in place for 2014. B.C. is currently the only province with a three-year term for local politicians. At last month’s UBCM convention 60 per cent of the delegates voted to request a move to a four-year term for civic elections.

Private land under scrutiny by Feds

This program will assist in living a healthy lifestyle and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. This program was also promoted at the Rock Creek & Boundary Fall Fair. Location – Boardroom of the Rock Creek Medical building

Editor, The Times: A local woodpecker has made the red list for endangered species which means that the Species at Risk Act (SARA) now has power over private land. This can amount to expropriation without compensation to the landowners. In the pamphlet on species at risk on private land in B.C., it clearly states that one should avoid activities that threaten or destroy critical habitat if you plan changes on your property. I quote “This can include plans to clear, landscape, renovate, build, ranch, log, or farm on your property”.

Eight sessions 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. • Thursday, October 17 • Monday, October 21 • Wednesday, October 23 • Monday, October 28 • Thursday, October 31 • Monday, November 4 • Monday, November 11 • Wednesday, November 13 The cost is $25.00 per person. Conducted by Dr. Christine Simpson (250-446-2990)

Much of the concern around SARA can be accommodated but this statement should scare the hell out of anyone with private land holdings or hopes to purchase property in the Boundary. This will undoubtedly cause a reduction in property values as this is implemented. Will there be land tax concessions for those properties affected? How much impact can we actually expect from this particular species designation? What is the next species on the Federal Ministry of Environment’s scope? There will be more of this coming our way! Where was our federal MP when this regulation was proposed? Apparently he was not looking out on our behalf or was asleep at the switch!

Your volunteer hours would help homeless Editor, The Times: I am writing to this community on behalf of the Boundary Emergency Transitional Housing Society (BETHS). As many of you know we provide emergency shelter to those in need of it in the Grand Forks and surrounding Boundary area during the cold winter months. We have joined in a collaborative venture with Whispers of Hope and Habitat for Humanity in what we call the Multi Agency Accommodation Project (MAAP). Through the good graces of our mayor and council we share a building on Riverside Drive that accommodates all three of these community programs under one roof. I am one of eight directors on the BETHS board. I am writing to you because we need the help of this community to fullfill our goal of providing emergency shelter to those in need, each night for this coming winter season. Each night the shelter is open we have a trained paid staff member in attendance. We need one volunteer each night to help in this effort. In order to make this work we need a group of 15-20 volunteers in total. Each volunteer would be prepared to help out for two nights per month

for five months. That is one night every two weeks. This is not an onerous task. Staff on duty could potentially have the option to alternate getting some sleep, while it’s quiet and guests are sleeping, and if the shelter is unattended by midnight for any reason, then the shelter is shut down for the night. All shifts will be scheduled well in advance and we can be flexible in this regard.

We currently have about ten volunteers. We need twice that many to make this work properly and not overload anyone. If we don’t have help we may not be able to open or we may have to close mid-season. I once read, that the most valuable thing in life that you have to give to another person, is your time. No matter how rich or poor, or how fortunate or unfortunate we are, we all have roughly the same time to spend. Our community is ultimately what we make of it and it boils down to how much time we have to spend on one another. Please consider if you have a little time to help someone else have a warm bed out of the cold. I can be reached at: elliotteskey@ gmail.com Elliot Teskey, BETHS secretary

Autumn 2013

I sincerely hope everyone had a wonderful summer and had time to travel, visit friends and family or just relax and go camping. The water mains have been replaced and the new #5 well is online, flushed and ready for the electrical. On September 25, a group of us from council and members of the Board of Trade got together for our inaugural Greenwood Economic Development Committee (GEDC). It was a good start and great discussions around where we go from here. Alan Cooper from Grand Forks came and led this meeting on the best practices etc. Alan was a wealth of information and his power point presentation was valuable information. The next meeting is scheduled for October 23 and we are trying to get a few new members from the broader community. As we start getting into the fall weather please remember to keep your garbage inside or locked up until day of pickup so we don’t attract the bears. Sad to say this summer we lost a few of our very dear residents, Mr. Paul Matte, Mrs. Sandy Hunt, our local hairdresser, and Ms Marge Maclean, who has been an active volunteer in so many of local organizations and especially the museum. They will be forever missed and my heart goes out to their families and friends. Wishing everyone the best of health, wealth and happiness. – Nipper Kettle your Mayor

RDKB prepares for recycling changes JIM HOLTZ

Grand Forks Gazette

Despite fears of increased costs raised in other districts and municipalities around the province over changes to recycling regulations, taxpayers in the Kootenay Boundary Regional District (RDKB) have nothing to worry about. According to Alan Stanley, director of environmental services, when new regulations regarding recycling come into effect in May, neither taxpayers or homeowners will notice any change in either taxes or service. “Our recommendation to the board, which was adopted, was that we keep the (recycling) program exactly as it is for the time being, and then we’ll let this new program start up,” he said. As a result of new provincial regulations, all major retailers and producers of paper and plastic packaging must take responsibility for collecting and recycling their packaging by next May. In order to achieve that end, a new provincial agency, Multi-Material BC (MMBC), was created and all major producers and retailers were required to join, each submitting an extensive plan for ways in which they intended to reduce the amount of packaging they use. According to MMBC managing director Allen Langdon, producers will pay for their share of the new program based on how much packaging they generate, thereby providing them with a profit incentive to reduce packaging. Having the MMBC take over paper and packaging recycling should result in an an-

nual saving of around $500,000 to the regional district, according to RDKB chairman Larry Gray. And while taxpayers may hope for a slight reduction in taxes because of that saving, Gray says that is not likely. “We have some long term situations which we are looking at,” Gray said. “We have some landfill sites that we have to put some money aside for; maybe 20 years down the road we will have to close those sites.” According to Stanley, the key to extending the life of landfill sites rests with effective organic waste management. “Organics management is very important to the future of solid waste management programs,” Stanley said. “It’s an absolutely fantastic opportunity to have that discussion, and the timing is perfect as well because the board has decided to do a full update of the Solid Waste Management Plan, the provincially mandated document that the districts have to have to look at a lot of these initiatives that we are working on.” The complexity of having MMBC completely take over the wide variety of municipal and regional district recycling programs has left some local officials around the province concerned that not only will service be reduced, but that costs for taxpayers and home owners will increase. Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie worries that taxpayers will end up paying twice: first through their taxes and then again when the major producers and retailers increase the cost of goods to make up for the cost of recycling.

Stanley is more optimistic. The new ing group to help coordinate negotiations program is very similar to recommenda- on behalf of affected cities. tions that the RDKB brought to the Union Many cities fear degraded recycling serof BC Municipalities in 2009, he said, and vices depending on how the new system expansion of recycling and waste reduc- rolls out and argue MMBC won’t pay them tion is something that the region’s resi- enough to cover their costs if they agree to dents are in favour of. keep running curbside collection as con“The success of the Grand Forks green tractors. bin program has really inspired a lot of the If cities decline to be paid collectors, board members and the citizens across MMBC will contract the service out to the district,” he said, and prompted many firms and may let them halt curbside pickpeople to ask when it can be expanded up of glass and direct residents to take jars throughout the district. and bottles to a depot instead. “There’s an awful lot of speculative nay saying, where people are saying that they don’t think this new program is going to work out,” Stanley continued. “Well, holy cow, we do a lot of new programs and initiatives and GREENWOOD if we just worried about what might Sacred Heart Catholic Church go wrong, we never would get anyRev.

City considering hotel licences AL DONNELLY

Chronicles of Boundary Country from the pages of The Boundary Creek Times Volume III, No.17 – January 1, 1898 ➤ Hotel Licenses to be approved – The Licensing Court of the City of Greenwood is considering several applications for hotel licenses and has imposed various conditions for the operation of approved hotels, such as: “every hotel must have sufficient means of escape in the case of fire . . . including, for all rooms above the ground floor, a 5/8 inch rope firmly fastened by a staple driven into a scantling near a window and such rope to be in length sufficient to reach within five feet of the ground; hotels should not be frequented by drunkards and bums; no hotel shall be used for the purpose of prostitution; and no liquor may be furnished to a drunken person and if any person does become drunk, we trust that the hotel keeper who furnishes him the liquor will take care of him until he becomes safe and not turn him out in the street to be an annoyance to the public and a disgrace to the town.” ➤ Timber on Mineral Claims – “A local sawmill company has been informed by the provincial timber inspector that they have the right to cut timber on mineral claims. However, Mr. James Baker, the Minister of Mines, states that timber on a mineral claim that is being worked belongs to the holder of the claim and that you have a perfect right

Discover puts on Pumpkinfest

Discover Rock Creek continues to roll out the events in one of the oldest communities in the Boundary, but they are running out of room on the 2013 calendar and, therefore, have only two events left to round out the year. On Saturday, Oct. 26 at 5:30 p.m. “Pumpkinfest” will be held at West Bound-

ary Elementary School. The evening kicks off with supper from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at a cost of $5 per person or $20 per family, followed by entertainment and auction of this year’s “crop” of pumpkins. A fun-filled evening awaits your family. Sunday, Nov. 24 is the “Community Christmas Light-­

Albertan Aiyana Thompson, who had stopped in Rock Creek with her mother last weekend, shows this pumpkin by Monica Boychuk. Discover Rock Creek has somewhere north of 40 pumpkins that will go up for auction on Oct. 26 at West Boundary Elementary at the 2013 Pumkinfest.

Up”. Entertainment and “lightup” is at 3 p.m. and supper is dished up between 4-6 p.m. Come join us by the fire for a community get-together and kick off to the Christmas season. “The gang at Discover Rock Creek has had a busy summer building community and wants to thank everyone who volunteered their time and expertise to help put our lovely little town on the map,” said Pat Pownall. The summer season began with the Vintage Fair and Canada Day parade. Pownall says special thanks are owed to Angela Kitchen and Jeanne Campbell for publicity and organization of the third annual parade. The farmer’s market, under the watchful eye of Vic Boychuk, was extremely successful through the summer and early fall. Locals and tourists alike kept the Saturday event well attended and viable. Due to the volunteer efforts of the Pownall Construction and Form Rental crew, the community now boasts a covered area to be used at public events. Food sharing and the food society continue to support those in need—contributing food, comfort, and in some cases transportation. They are

currently planting garlic for local use, as well as to sell to support food sustainability in the West Boundary. In August, Riverfest welcomed crowds of people who helped celebrate our beautiful Kettle River. Prospector Cliff demonstrated the technique of gold panning, Dan Skaros presented an informative session on snakes, and Steve and Susan Ogerman organized a host of entertainers who kept toes tapping for hours. Fredolm Isaac was the happy winner of the $350 awarded to the winner of the barrel race. The Riverfest grounds were decorated with projects and artwork done by the elementary students under the direction of Nicole Ferrier. The teachers did a brilliant job of leading the children through ways to protect and enjoy our river. These projects were also displayed at the fall fair in September. John Hibberson was on site with his book The River as well as photographs and artwork pertaining to our river. His slide show, featuring poetry and pictures of the Kettle, was superb. Once again—mark your calendars for Oct. 26 and Nov. 24 for the two remaining Discover Rock Creek events for 2013.
