Rob Gay has been re-elected as Chair of the Regional District of East Kootenay board of directors for the coming year.

It will be the Area C Director’s fourth year in the role. He took over from former Cranbrook mayor Scott Manjak after the November 2011 municipal elections.

On Friday, Dec. 6, Area A director Mike Sosnowski put Gay’s name forward for the position. No other nominations were made and

Gay was unanimously elected.

“I’m honoured to be given this position again and I will do my best to support the regional district,” he said.

Meanwhile, Area F Director Wendy Booth was unanimously elected as Vice-Chair for the second year running.

Booth was first elected to the role last December, taking over from Invermere mayor Gerry Taft.

“I’ve enjoyed being the Vice-Chair for the past year and I think Chair Gay and I work well together,” she said.

Cranbrook’s mayor has formally invited Teck to set up a corporate office in Cranbrook.

At the Friday, Dec. 6 meeting of the Regional District of East Kootenay board of directors, Teck’s Nic Milligan, manager of community and aboriginal affairs, gave a brief update on the resource company’s Elk Valley operations to the board.

During comments after the presentation, Mayor Wayne Stetski told Milligan that Teck would be welcome to relocate executives from

its Vancouver and Calgary to a Cranbrook office.

“Over the past two years, whenever I’ve had the opportunity, I’ve extended an invitations privately to Teck to locate a corporate office here in Cranbrook,” said Stetski. “Today I’d like to make it a public offer. I truly believe there are corporate people in Teck in both Calgary and Vancouver who would love to come live in the East Kootenays and here in Cranbrook.”

Milligan pointed out that Teck does operate a small office in Cran-

“Let me take your offer back to the corporation,” said Milligan.

Elkford Mayor Dean McKerracher, Fernie Mayor Mary Giuliano and Area A Director Mike Sosnowski all echoed Stetski’s invitation but for their own communities.

“I’d like to echo what

They donated all of it to the East Kootenay SPCA! On the left is SPCA manager Brenna Baker, and in front is a four-footed friend of the SPCA.

Director Stetski said.

Teck is welcome to set up an office in Elkford,” said McKerracher.

Area B Director Heath Slee brought up a separate issue with Milligan: the traffic on Highway 3 travelling from Cranbrook and the South Country to the Elk Valley to work in Teck’s five mines. Slee asked if Teck was considering strategies to more effi-

ciently transport their employees to its operations.

“Employee transportation is a living issue,” Milligan responded. “A lot of it is defined by various collective agreements. However, it’s a persistent issue that we revisit from time to time.

I don’t know the current status of plans to move employees, but I appreciate your comments.”

Matching funds deadline extended for the Philippines Every dollar you give ShelterBox matched by federal government For the Bulletin

The Government of Canada advises that it has extended the deadline of matching donations until December 23, 2013.

“This is fantastic news for ShelterBox Canada”, said Graham Mann, ShelterBox Ambassador.

“There are a growing number of families in Kimberley and area who have chosen to make a donation to ShelterBox Canada as a Christmas gift to their extended families. This December 23 extension now allows these gifts to the Philippine victims of Typhoon Haiyan to be matched by the Canadian Government. As of December 4, the always amazing donors in Kimberley have contributed $11,250.

Thanks to matching funds the Kimberley Rotary Club will purchase 22 ShelterBoxes for the Philippines.”

Ron Noseworthy, Chair of the ShelterBox Canada Board, is cur-

rently in the Philippines as a ShelterBox Response Team (SRT) member. SRTs have been in the Philippines since October 15, responding to a 7.2 magnitude earthquake in Cebu. Typhoon Haiyan struck while they were dealing with the earthquake. Mr. Noseworthy’s entire report is at www.shelterboxcanada.org with a short excerpt, as follows: “Our ShelterBox Response Team has been concentrating our initial response on the remote islands of the Bantayan archipelago which are located north of the island of Cebu. We are working in this area because it has not received much aid as a result of its remoteness. These islands were in the direct path of the typhoon and sustained massive damage, with 70 to 80 per cednt of the homes destroyed or badly damaged in many of the towns.

“We are dealing with limited transportation, restricted communications and destroyed infrastructure. Three weeks after the typhoon there is still no power on the islands and it will likely be a very long time before it

is restored. Reconstruction has been slow, compounded by severe poverty in many parts of the islands. We travel to the smaller outer islands, carrying our tents and supplies in small, local fishing boats with limited capacity.

The Philippine people are very resilient and, in spite of the enormous challenges that they face, they remain positive and upbeat; they are a pleasure to work with. The need is enormous and as long as our generous supporters continue to donate to our important mission, ShelterBox will be here to help many more thousands of desperate families in the Philippines.”

God’s blessings on you and yours for your generosity during this holiday season. Donations are gratefully accepted at the Kootenay Savings and Credit Union in Kimberley (cheques payable to Kimberley Rotary Club) or you can donate online at www.shelterboxcanada.org.

There is also a donation jar at Grubstake Pizza. For more information, please contact Graham Mann at 250-427-5057.

McKim’s Willy Wonka Jr. opens Wednesday

A lot of hard work by students pays off this week

C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

Music teacher Sven Heyde refers to himself as “just the sound guy” for the upcoming McKim production of Willy Wonka Jr. Ask any of the students involved and they will tell you he’s a lot more than that, but Heyde has stepped back on this production and turned it over to the students themselves.

And the students are taking the responsibility seriously. Directing the show is Grade 11 student Clara Macleod, a veteran of previous Selkirk/ McKim productions such as the Sound of Music and Les Miserable.

She will also have a role in the upcoming Legally Blond production.

But right now she’s focused on getting the most out of the young cast of Willy Wonka Jr., which opens Wednesday night at McKim Theatre in Kimberley.

It helps, Heyde says, that many of those young actors are veterans of other musicals produced in Kimberley in the last few years.

“It’s going to be a really good show. She has some really, really strong actors. There are kids who have been doing Summer Theatre and musicals for the past few years. It’s so neat to be working with mini-professionals.”

This is the first time directing for Clara.

“It’s just an idea that Mr. Heyde brought about last spring,” she said. “I thought it would be fun.”

It has been that and a whole lot more, she says.

“It’s helped me improve my own singing and acting techniques,” she said. “It’s helped with my confidence. I always tell them, don’t be afraid of letting go. I can’t tell them that without doing it myself.

“But it’s also taught me how much work directing is.”

Clara says that at first the really young students were a bit difficult to handle — the show has roles for students from Lindsay Park and Marysville elementary schools as well as McKim students.

But as the rehearsals have gone on, she finds the younger students looking to the older ones as role models, and things are going smoothly.

When Clara talked to the Bulletin last Thursday, it was just under a week to opening night

McKim students are so excited about their new musical Willy Wonka Jr. that they can hardly wait for opening night. Luckily for them it’s only two days away. Above are four of the stars of the show, Clayton Serediuk who plays Augustus Gloop, Emory Hoko (Violet Beauregard), Declan Armstrong (Charlie Bucket) and Dryden Dhami (Mike TV). and she felt the students would be ready.

“I’m feeling pretty good,” she said. “I think it’s a lot better than I thought it would be at this point.”

As to what the audience can look forward to, Clara says colourful sets, some wonderful special effects and great music.

“There are some really catchy songs. Think

Gr. 11 student Clara Macleod is directing the show.

Positive is a really feed good song, all about feeling happy. These kids are singing in tow and three part harmony. That’s pretty crazy.”

They young actors themselves are as excited as can be. The Bulletin spoke to Clayton Serediuk (Augustus Gloop), Emory Hoko (Violet Beauregard), Declan Armstrong (Charlie Bucket) and Dryden Dhami (Mike TV). Willy Wonka is played by Gwen Davies.

“I really wanted to be in a school musical,” said Clayton. “When I heard it was Willy Wonka, I was really excited.”

Emory says that even though they have been rehearsing for 11 weeks, three times a week, she doesn’t get tired of it. Her favourite part is the singing.

“I love to sing,” she

said.

Declan is especially excited because he will actually be flying in his role as Charlie Bucket, with a pulley system which will lift him up.

“I’m flying. I really like it. I haven’t actually done it yet because we tried it once and I was too skinny for the harness. But I’m sure I’ll be able to fly.”

Dryden also enjoys the physical acting side of it and is looking forward to some of his stunts.

All the students and their director agree that those who attend will not be disappointed.

Willy Wonka Jr. will be performed at McKim Theatre on December 11, 12, and 13 at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are available at the McKim office and at the door and are $5 for students, and $8 for adults.

Great detective has the answers

In response to the recent Janus series “Sherlock Holmes and the Mysterious Dr. Bell,” a Letter to the Editor arrives via ouija board Dear Sir, I trust you will find it in your heart to allow me to send you a letter to publish. A Mr. Cameron printed a column in your paper over the past two weeks concerning my, and my partner’s, skills in the area of detective work. I have risen to his challenge and have attempted to answer some of Mr. Cameron’s questions regarding a Dr. Bell who used to reside in Cranbrook.

This letter has been transmitted by me to a present Cranbrook resident via his skill with the Ouija Board. This resident requests that his name remains anonymous as he feels he would be subject to ridicule, and accused of being a luddite, if it were known that he uses such a primitive method of communication but he does manage to get into the spirit of things without the need for “tweeting”, “texting”, “twittering” and that newfangled method of communication through something you call “The Internet”. Good old deduction and a magnifying glass have not let me down and still proved to be useful in this quest for information on Cranbrook’s Dr. Bell.

Cranbrook’s Dr. Bell’s full name was John Henry Montgomerie Bell. He was born in Portobello, Scotland, on September 5th 1877. His parents were John Montgomerie Bell and Elizabeth Jane Bell (nee Simpson). He grew up with his parents, a brother and sister, and in 1881 at the age of three he lived at #55a Grange Road, Edinburgh. Mr. Cameron might be interested to know that in this house at that time there happened to also be a boarder by the name of Robert R.B. Watson.

At the age of 13, John Henry Montgomerie Bell was still living with all his family at #55a Grange Road and Robert Watson appears to have moved on.

In 1901, J.H.M. Bell is now a medical student living at 22 Princes Street, Edinburgh. By the end of the year he has graduated with M.B., Ch.B. and proceeded M.D. in 1907 and the diploma F.R.C.S.Ed in

1907 also.

He joined the Micro-Chirurgical Society of Edinburgh of which a Dr. Joseph Bell was a past executive officer.

After arriving in Cranbrook, by 1911 Dr. Bell had set up his Doctor’s practice in an office at #6 Armstrong Avenue. In 1912 he moved his office from here to a house on Norbury Avenue close to the MERC. He was appointed Health Officer to the schools, at a salary of $10 per month, and acted as Coroner to the district for some time. He was called upon to attend several unfortunate accidents in Cranbrook and Fort Steele during his time in this position.

Dr. Bell took an active part in the life of a Cranbrookite at that time. He acted in the Cranbrook Operatic Society production of “The Society Girl”, a picture of this production being reproduced in a much later Courier of 1928. When government lands were thrown open for purchase, Dr. Bell sent over coffee for the many men in the lineup. aaaaa His job in Cranbrook was a demanding one and in 1913 he took a leave for three months to visit his mother in Scotland. The return journey was something to remember as the weather in the Atlantic was the roughest it had been for many years. On his return he submitted his annual report to Cranbrook City council stating that “the city is in an exceptional healthy condition.” “Over the past year there was one case of diphtheria, one case of scarlet fever, 2 cases of typhoid, three cases of tuberculosis, thirteen cases of measles and 14 cases of infant diarrheal diseases”. Dr. Bell remained committed to pushing for the need of the population receiving typhoid fever vaccinations.

He purchased a new 5-passenger touring car in 1914 and quickly had to put it to use in driving to Kimberley on one of his coroner’s visits.

In August of 1914, at the age of 37, Dr. Bell was one of the first Cranbrook contin-

gent to sign up to go to the front. He stated that he had already served for two years in the 42nd Highlanders. He sold his practice to Cranbrook Doctors King and Green and hoped that all his patients will consult them in the future. He signed up in Valcartier, Quebec, to enlist in the Canadian Army Medical Corps on September 23, 1914. During his enlistment it is noted that he is 5 feet 9 inches in height, has fresh complexion, grey eyes, and fair hair.

During the war Dr. Bell sent a few letters to his friends in Cranbrook thanking them for gifts being sent to the soldiers at the front and also commenting on his work for the red Cross within the enemy’s lines. He reached the rank of Major very quickly.

In 1922 Cranbrook Knox Church unveiled a memorial tablet to honor 60 men who had enlisted in the war. Dr. Bell’s name is included in this honor roll. Perhaps this memorial tablet is still in place?

In February, 1925, Cranbrook residents Mr. And Mrs. Marshall, friends of John Henry Montgomerie Bell, received a notice sent to them by the Scotsman stating that Dr. Bell had died on December 27, 1924. at the age of 47 in Yorkshire at Killinghall, Harrogate.

Dr. J. H. M. Bell was obviously an active member of the Cranbrook community during his stay there. He was also very active in the field of medicine having had appointments including house-surgeon to the Deaconess Hospital in Edinburgh, house-surgeon to the eye wards, house-physician to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and senior house-surgeon to Rotherham Hospital.

Now, how are he and Dr. Joseph Bell of Conan Doyle fame connected? Well, when you talk of cousins everything is relative and that will require more deductive work and another Ouija Board session.

Yours faithfully Sherlock Holmes

KIMBERLEY DYNAMITERS

Rockets, Nitehawks romp over Nitros TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kimberley Dynamiters suffered a setback on the weekend, losing twice in a pair of games against the Golden Rockets and the Beaver Valley Nitehawks.

The two losses drop the Nitros down into third place in divisional rankings—tied at 29 points with the Ghostriders—however, Fernie has a few games in hand, which gives them the edge.

Kimberley scored the opening goal against the Nitehawks on Saturday night on home ice, but then Beaver Valley responded with five unanswered goals—two of which were shorthanded—to take the 5-1 win.

Jason Richter got it done in the latter half of the first period, scoring his 14th goal of the season in front of the net on the powerplay after a great feed from Alex Rosolowsky at the point.

However, that would do it for Kimberley’s offence.

Ryan Edwards answered back for the Hawks, ripping a shot past Nitro goaltender Jeremy Mousseau 30 seconds into the second period on a short-

Special teams continued to hurt the Dynamiters in the third period, as Riley Brandt drew blood on another shorthanded goal and Braden Fuller scored on a Hawks powerplay.

Dan Holland capped off the scoring in the final minute to end the game at 5-1.

Mousseau had a

tough night with some shots he’d probably like to have back, making 27 saves in defeat, while Grayson Sharpe turned away 24 shots for the Hawks.

Kimberley scored once in seven opportunities with the man-advantage, while Beaver Valley notched a goal in six powerplay chances.

Earlier on Friday evening, the Rockets flew over the Dynamiters for a 4-2 win in

Golden.

The Rockets struck early and held the Nitros at bay for most of the game to earn the win.

Tanner Watt scored on the powerplay and Travis Kelley tallied in the final 30 seconds of the opening period for a 2-0 lead.

Tristan Pagura responded on the powerplay early in the second period, but Golden capitalized with the

man-advantage on a goal from Braeden Allkins near the end of the frame.

The two teams traded goals in the final period, with Bowen Alcock striking first for Golden, while Dallin Wolf answered back for Kimberley on another powerplay goal.

Mousseau turned away 14 shots in defeat, while Rockets goaltender Brian Parsons made 26 stops.

Ice extinguish Blazers, fall to Rockets TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

A day after returning to the win column, the Ice were felled by one of the hottest teams in the CHL. Kootenay extinguished the Blazers for a 7-3 win on Friday to snap a three-game losing streak, but dropped a 2-1 decision to the Kelowna Rockets the following night.

It was a close affair on Saturday night, as the Ice struck first, but were unable to hold on to the lead, which the Rockets evened in the second period, and stole in the last seven minutes for the go-ahead goal.

Luke Philp struck first on a blast from the top of the circle during a Kootenay powerplay to put the Ice up 1-0 after the opening frame.

Carter Rigby answered back for the Rockets at the halfway mark of the middle frame, using one hand to jab the puck across

the goal line while trailing the play.

Heading into the final ten minutes of the last period, Myles Bell received a drop pass from Justin Kirkland in the Kootenay zone and wired a shot into the net.

Mackenzie Skapski manned the crease for the Ice, making 28 saves, while Jackson Whistle stopped 30 shots for Kelowna.

Tim Bozon had a four-point night in a triumphant return to Kamloops along with former Blazer teammate Landon Cross on Friday night, both of whom came to Kootenay via trade for Collin Shirley, Matt Thomas and draft picks earlier in the season.

Kootenay picked up their first win of the road trip with an explosion of offence, as Bozon and Jaedon Descheneau both notched a pair of goals in a 7-3 win.

Though Kootenay got off to a good start with two goals in the

first frame, they really put it away in the second, lighting the goal lamp four times.

Descheneau tallied first with the man-advantage, and Bozon capitalized just a minute afterwards.

Kamloops responded 40 seconds into the second period on a powerplay goal from Josh Connolly.

The two teams then traded goals as Descheneau got another powerplay marker, and Cole Ully found the back of the net.

Then the floodgates opened.

Over the course of five minutes, Philp, Matt Alfaro and Bozon scored, the latter making it Kootenay’s third goal with the man-advantage for a 6-2 lead after 40 minutes.

Zak Zborosky padded the lead for Kootenay, while Eric Krienke scored a late powerplay goal for the Blazers.

Wyatt Hoflin picked up the win for the Ice, making 30 saves,

while Cole Kehler and Taran Kozun shared netminding duties, collectively stopping 19 shots.

The injury bug has gone around a bit during the road trip, as Kootenay lost Ryan Chynoweth and Tanner Faith in Vancouver; the former took a hit in the corner and left the game, while Faith went down hard onto the ice and headed to the dressing room.

Kootenay heads into Prince George for their final game of the road trip to challenge the Cougars on Tuesday night. The Cats have a under-0.500 record, seesawing from wins to losses like the Ice. Troy Bourke, Chase Witala and Todd Fiddler are the primary offensive threats, each with 30 points or more to lead the team.

Ty Edmonds has gotten the lion’s share of starts, posting a 3.46 goals against average and a save percentage of 0.910.

Jones, Jacobs win curling trials, will represent Canada at Sochi Games

WINNIPEG - It was fitting that Brad Jacobs sealed his right to represent Canada at the Olympics with one more big-weight double Sunday afternoon, and he never even considered a less risky shot.

“You’re throwing that double to win the game,” he said after beating John Morris 7-4.

He said his third, Ryan Fry, told him it was coming.

“Fry said it to me, ‘You’re going to have a double either way here and we’re playing it.’ So my mind was already wrapped around some big weight shot before I even threw it.”

Jacob joins Winnipeg’s Jennifer Jones, who defeated Sherry Middaugh 8-4 Saturday night to win the women’s slot, the one prize that has eluded her in a championship-filled career.

Jacobs went into the game as the favourite, after earning his final spot by sweeping the round robin seven straight with a hard-hitting, muscular, fist-pumping brand of curling that delighted the crowd.

It’s also clean and near perfect when it counts.

“That’s our style,” he said.

With no hometown heroes left to root for Sunday at Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings (Jeff Stoughton and Mike McEwen were knocked out before the semifinals), the crowd switched it’s allegiance to the Jacobs rink.

Bruins coach says Thornton crossed the line in nasty Penguins game

TORONTO - The Boston Bruins arrived in Toronto hurting and expecting bad news.

A suspension was hanging over forward Shawn Thornton, after his meltdown in Saturday night’s 3-2 win over Pittsburgh sent Penguins defenceman Brooks Orpik to hospital. Thonton, enraged at seeing several teammates injured in the game at TD Garden, is suspended pending an in-person disciplinary hearing.

Forwards Loui Eriksson and Chris Kelly were both injured in the Pittsburgh game.

Eriksson sustained a concussion after being hit

by Orpik and did not travel to Toronto for the start of the Bruins’ four-game road trip. Kelly was placed on long-term injured reserve after breaking his right fibula against Pittsburgh.

As for Thornton’s actions, Julien said his player will take his medicine. Thornton himself said he felt awful after the game.

Pittsburgh’s James Neal was assessed a kneeing penalty for a hit on Brad Marchand that preceded Thornton’s sucker-punch attack on Orpik. Neal said later there was no attempt to injure.

US lands in tough group after World Cup draw

COSTA DO SAUIPE, Brazil - The United States will play Ghana, Portugal and Germany in a tough first-round group at next year’s World Cup that will take them on a lengthy 9,000-mile trip around Brazil.

Making their seventh straight appearance at soccer’s showcase, the Americans were drawn Friday into Group G and will open on June 16 in Natal against Ghana, which eliminated the Americans at the 2006 and 2010 tournaments The U.S. meets Portugal and 2008 FIFA Player of the Year Cristian Ronaldo on June 22 in the Amazon rain forest city Manaus. The Americans close group play on June 26 in Recife against Germany, which beat the U.S. in the 2002 quarterfinal.

“Difficult draw, but a group the U.S. can get through if they play well,” former U.S. coach Bruce Arena told The Associated Press.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am a woman in my mid-30s, and think I may have been molested when I was young. I have little memory of my childhood up until age 13. But I do know that when my friends played with their Barbie dolls, they had her driving around, going on dates and dressing up pretty. I pretended she was having sex with Ken. Other kids played house, but I pretended to be the dad and would get on top of my younger sister and rub against her. When I was 14, I made out with my 8-year-old stepcousin until his mother caught me, and for years after, he refused to talk to me. When I was 16, I kissed my best friend’s 10-year-old brother.

I don’t remember anything specifically.

I only remember having a bad dream once that my dad molested me, and for years afterward, I didn’t want to be near him. Our relationship still feels kind of strained. I don’t know what to think anymore. What should I do? -- Bewildered and Worried Dear Bewildered: We would not presume to tell you what happened to you as a child, if anything actually did, or whether it involved your father. We suggest you seek therapy, although we do not recommend those who claim to specialize in “recovered” memories of abuse. This type of therapy is not reliable.

Ask your doctor to refer you.

Dear Annie: We have a family member who wishes for us not to contact him anymore.

Both of his parents are deceased. What do we do? -- Upset Relatives Dear Upset: You must respect his wishes, even though it seems cruel. (We assume this family member is not under any type of duress from a partner who is trying to isolate him.) We would inform this relative that you will cease contact, as per his wishes. But add that you still care about him, and should he wish to resume contact, it always will be welcome.

Dear Annie: “Little Sister in Need” told you about her abusive older brother, and you told her to “stop taking it personally”? She wasn’t talking about disagreements. She cited his being “verbally, psychologically and at times physically abusive.”

You should have told her that what’s going on is abuse and, if he gets physical, constitutes domestic violence. She needs to talk to a domestic violence counselor and be alert for signs that he’s also abusing his wife and child. Odds are that he is. Abusers rarely limit themselves to just one victim. -- Judy Dear Judy: Many readers agree with you, but we did not get the impression that the current abuse is physical. Sibling relationships are complicated, and there is often physical fighting and hitting when siblings are younger. While we don’t condone such behavior, we also know that the physical side usually stops when the siblings reach adulthood. It does not necessarily carry over to his wife and child, nor does it seem so from her letter, although she certainly can investigate.

The fact that her brother continues to harangue her verbally indicates that he has anger and control issues. He lashes out at his sister because this is the dynamic they have had for 20 years. If speaking to a therapist would be helpful for her, we agree that this is an excellent idea. However, it also would help if she changed her response to her brother, not only because it would force him to change how he speaks to her, but also because it could improve her perception of her own strength in his presence. He is intimidating her, and she needs to stand up to him in a way that empowers her without exacerbating the situation.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.

Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.

You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.

When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.

Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.

Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.

Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.

Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.

In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast.

Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.

When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Call today and start advertising.

Starting Dec. 5 and for the next five weeks until January 7, Prairie Toyota is fueling its 2nd annual food drive to restock Canada’s food bank shelves for the new year. With 20,000 lbs. of food collected and donated last year to food banks across the Prairies, Prairie Toyota is looking to surpass that amount by nearly doubling the amount of time allocated to this year’s initiative. Each dealership will make a personal donation of $550.00 worth of groceries to help meet this year’s goal.

Due to the significant drop in donations (food and cash) following the holidays, supplies at Canada’s food banks are at its lowest between Jan-April. To ensure 2014 is the year to serve those in need, Prairie Toyota dealerships want to replenish local food banks by collecting donations from now until January 7th.

Bruce Smith of Alpine Toyota asks the community of Cranbrook for continued support in this initiative by bringing in a non-perishable food item to their local Prairie Toyota dealership.

“We want to give the public a new perspective on hunger and continue to raise awareness of the need to restock our food bank’s supplies,” says Smith. “At Prairie Toyota, one of our greatest features is the ability to help fight hunger. Last year, we delivered 20,000 lbs. of food across the prairies

- this year, we want to feed even more in need.”

According to Food Banks Canada, close to 900,000 Canadians are assisted by food banks every month; nearly half of food banks saw an increase in use in 2013 - a 21 per cent rise in the number of people coming to them for help throughout this year; and, the use of meal programs are 11 per cent higher than in 2012 (40 per cent higher than in 2008).

Consider these local figures from Food Banks Canada’s HungerCount 2013: • Food bank use in B.C. saw a 20.4per cent increase in usage since 2008 • 94,002 people in B.C. were assisted by food banks in one month alone • 29.5 per cent of those assisted in 2013 were children “We were astounded by the amount of support and participation received during last year’s food drive,” said Smith. “This year, we ask our local community to come together once again and help us feed as many individuals and families in need as possible by restocking food supplies for the start of the 2014 and throughout the new year.”

Anyone who brings in a non-perishable item at a participating Prairie Toyota dealership may enter for a chance to win a 2014 Toyota Tundra ($38,880 MSRP).
