The Midway Community Hall was transformed into a Dr. Seuss wonderland on Saturday as the Midway Community Club put on a Whoville Children’s Christmas Party. There were pictures with Santa by Niki Ferrier, a special performance of The Grinch Who Stole Christmas—directed by John Hibberson and

preformed by some of the older kids, Christmas Carols, professional air brushed face painting, lots of crafts, colouring and cookie decorating. There was also coffee, tea, hot chocolate, hot dogs and treats. All children aged 0-10 received a gift from Santa. Mrs. Claus, who had accompanied Santa, said the trip provided a nice opportunity for the reindeer to get some practice landing on roofs. “They did a nice landing in Fort St. James but down in

Williams Lake they missed and they slid across the lake,” she admitted. “But we made it and we made it on time. By the time the big day rolls around they’ll be good to go.” Speaking on behalf of the community club, Cat Kappes said the Whoville theme was the brainchild of Jolly McMynn who turned the set design over to her sister Heather Hollingsworth and Greenwood’s Erika Ruley.

The Fun Spot

Quote of the Week: All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them. ~ Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) Joke of the Week: Two inexperienced hunters went hunting in the woods. Before long they got lost. “Don’t worry,” said the first hunter, “I heard that when you’re lost you should fire three shots in the air that someone should hear you.” They fired three shots in the air and waited a half hour. They tried again another three and nothing happened. Finally they decided they will try it once more. “This better work,” said the second hunter nervously. “These are our last arrows!”

Gym packed for concert The gymnasium at West Boundary Elementary School was packed as parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, friends and neighbours came to the 2013 Christmas Concert. The theme was stories of past Christmases in the Boundary, the Herdman family performed Little Drummer Boy. Stories were provided by Pat Pownall, Art Harfman, tapes from interviews local historical biographer Pownall has done with pioneers and by children reading stories of their grandparents. Harfman reminded everyone that the important thing about gifting is not the size or cost of the gift but the acknowledgment that you love somebody. The Rock Creek Women’s institute each year raffles a quilt at the fall fair with some of the proceeds going to the community and the school. This year the quilt raffle enabled the WI to give $200 to Boundary Hospice and the balance of $685.88 going to WBES PAC for the food program. As they do each year the students and staff of WBES gathered on the stage at the end of the concert to lead everyone in a round of We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

(Above) These kids were having a great time performing their Christmas songs for parents and grandparents.

Everyone welcome. Mary Cannon hands over a cheque for over $685 to WBES PAC president Jodi Klein.

Financial Planning Check Up It’s hard to believe that 2013 is almost over! As a new year begins, now is a good time to take a look back and think about all the changes that you and your family have experienced over the past year and plan for any updates needed to your financial plan. Any major changes, whether they are personal or professional, can have a significant impact on your family’s insurance needs. A yearend review of your situation will help ensure that you have adequate coverage. If your family has grown, or you got married this year, your responsibility now extends to another person. Be sure to expand your life and disability coverage accordingly. A divorce, serious illness, or death in the family may also require you to adjust your insurance and estate plans. If you have changed employment or are expecting a raise or promotion soon, then your financial plan needs to be updated. With higher income come higher financial losses to your family if something were to happen to you. If you have lost your job or retired, then it is crucial to replace your group insurance benefits with a personal plan. With rising costs, perhaps you have taken on more debt. If you have purchased a new home, a new car or borrowed to renovate your bathroom, make sure your insurance is adequate to cover all liabilities and interest payments. Year end is also a good time to give your mutual funds and investment portfolio a checkup. With the year coming to an end, watch for year end distributions outside of registered plans. Before buying new units, find out if the fund expects to make a year end tax distribution. If you invest now, you may end up paying tax for the whole year. It might be more taxefficient to delay your purchase until the New Year. If appropriate for your investment strategy, consider selling your

non-registered portfolio of holdings that are in a loss position. A capital loss must first be used to offset the tax on any capital gains realized in the same year. Any remaining loss can be applied to gains from the previous three years or used in the future. It is important to seek professional advice to determine the best strategy for your situation. December 31 is the deadline to contribute to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) for your children, grandchildren, nieces, or nephews so that you qualify for the Canada Education Savings Grant for 2013. Recent government budget changes to RESP rules raised the amount on which the CESG is paid to $2,500 from $2,000. So if you contribute $2,500 before the end of the year, your RESP will get an extra $500 from the CESG. The budget also eliminated the annual contribution limit and raised the lifetime maximum contribution to $50,000 from $42,000 per beneficiary. If you tum 71 this year, you have until December 31, 2013 to convert your RRSPs to a Registered Retirement Income fund. Your income, however, can be deferred until the next year to allow you time to start budgeting this extra income for tax purposes. Professional guidance in all these circumstances is essential and can assist you in keeping your insurance, investment and estate plans up to date and allow you to take advantage of any opportunities that may arise. Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments. Please read the prospectus before investing. Mutual fund securities are not insured or guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.

Project positive, say students CRAIG LINDSAY

MIDWAY SD LIBRARY 51

Boundary Creek Times Contributor

Heavy Duty presentation Scott Stewart, principal of Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS), gave a presentation to the SD51 board at the board meeting on Dec. 10 regarding the recent Project Heavy Duty. The project featured five GFSS students and six from Boundary Central Secondary School (BCSS) students. The 11 spent one day of training and two days of onsite construction or forestry. Stewart said the feedback received from students was very positive. Student Travis Van Camp was on hand and stated that he enjoyed the experience and would like to make a career of it.

NOTES REPORT

“The board, for a long time, has supported stuff at both of our high schools in trying to get different types of trades opportunity in the schools for the students,” said Teresa Rezansoff, board chair for SD61. Rezansoff relected chair At the board meeting for SD51 on Dec. 10, the board held their annual election. Teresa Rezansoff was unanimously re-elected board chair and Cathy Riddle was re-elected vice-chair. For Rezansoff, a Grand Forks’ resident, it’s her tenth year as board chair

and sixth consecutive. She is pleased to return and she says there are still lots for the board to get done. “We’re two thirds of our way through our term,” said Rezansoff. “I think we’ve got some great things in place. We have a new senior administration team. The majority of our principles are in new schools. There’s lot of new energy that’s been generated by people taking on new challenges and looking for new opportunities. Representatives named Cindy Strukoff was elected BCSTA provincial councilor and BCPSEA representative/BCSTA bargaining council representative. Ken Harshenin was named as the trustee representative to the Okanagan Labour Relations Council.

Festival organizers address concerns For Kris Hargrave and Kia Zahrabi, organizing a music festival had been a dream of theirs for some years and right from the beginning they had envisioned Rock Creek as the hosting community. Last September long weekend the Rock Creek Fairgrounds were the venue for the first Ponderosa Arts and Music Festival. But at the November 2013 fall fair association meeting there were complaints of noise expressed by some nearby neighbors. There was considerable discussion of the complaint at the meeting with the decision being made to send Ron Palmer, head of the fair board’s contract committee, back to Hargrave and Zahrabi to see if an accommodation could be reached regarding decibel levels and hours of playing the amplified music. On Dec. 2, Ponderosa organizers issued a press release to respond to the complaints. “We have spoken with the board and are aware of the concerns voiced by members of the community. In order to gain community support we are: 1) working on informing residents of Rock Creek on who we are, what our new festival is all about and how we see it benefiting the community, and 2) working with our stage/sound contractor and the board to develop a reasonable plan that addresses the issue of noise.” “Recent news reports stated that some residents living near the fairgrounds site had voiced complaints of the level of the sound system during the event,” read the media release. “To address these issues, festival organizers are looking into potential alternatives to the previous stage setup and/or music

schedule. They are currently working closely with their professional stage and sound crew to look at various options including adhering to a maximum decibel level after a certain hour in the night.” Zahrabi confirmed that Palmer had asked how they felt about shutting down at 11 p.m. or midnight.

CRAIG LINDSAY

Grace McGregor, Area C (Christina Lake) director, has been chosen as board chair for the Regional District of the Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) at the board meeting on Dec. 5 in Trail. McGregor won out over Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor. She replaces Larry Gray, who was board chair for two consecutive years. McGregor said she was thrilled to be chosen and will work hard to represent the region. “Larry informed me a few months ago that he was not going to run again as board chair,” she told the Gazette. “He decided he didn’t want to do that again. I understand that he wants to spend time with his family and I understand that.” McGregor said she learned a great deal under Gray. “I’ve been the vice-chair the last two years with Larry Gray,” she said. “I’ve enjoyed every minute I’ve spent with that man. He’s a wealth of information and he’s very solid and very even-

“From our perspective it is not something we could consider,” Zahrabi told the Times in a telephone interview. “We are early in gaining a reputation and as far as having people come that far—especially Vancouver and Calgary—we would really like to keep it going like we did last year.” “So we told him we would be willing to work with the community,” add Zahrabi. “That’s the biggest thing we want to make sure the community is on our side.

Bless those who give According to the 2013 Child Poverty Report Card, published by firstcall.org, the latest figures from Statistics Canada (2011) once again show that B.C. is the worst province in Canada when it comes to major measures of child poverty. Some numbers where has won the race to the bottom: • 18.6 per cent — The child poverty rate in B.C. • 49.8 per cent — The poverty rate for children living in single mother families. • 14 per cent — The poverty rate for children living in two-parent families. • 20.7 per cent — B.C’.s poverty rate for children under 6 years of age (eight percentage points higher than the Canadian average). There is abundant evidence of the harm done to children’s health and development by growing up in poverty, and of the huge additional costs in health care, education, the justice system and lost productivity we are already paying by keeping poverty rates so high. Yet the province doesn’t have a plan to address child poverty. In 2012 a program set out to develop “regional poverty reduction strategies.” This pilot program directly affected only 10 to 15 low-income families in seven communities, with promises to scale the initiative up to more communities within a year or two. The 2013 Poverty Report Card notes that there has yet to be a public reporting of the outcomes of these seven initiatives. Poverty numbers are tracked nationally and provincially, but the real impact of poverty happens at the level of the individual family. That’s where the hunger is felt the most. Thank goodness our communities are filled with wonderful people who see the need as immediate and take action through the Lion’s Christmas Hampers, Food Sharing and emergency food banks. Bless those who give as they are able.
