Tinsel – an orphaned bear cub estimated to be 11 months old – has put the Boundary on the map. Since Christmas, the story of her rescue has gone around the world. Tinsel was found taking shelter in Dale Tiffenbach’s chicken coop beside Boundary Creek halfway between Midway and Greenwood the week before Christmas. During church on Dec. 22 Tiffenbach told others about the starving cub. He’d contacted both the Conservation Service and the RCMP but what to do about the bear cub was up in the air. One option being considered was putting the bear down. But Midway resident Miranda Charles, who attends the same church, didn’t like that idea so, with Tiffenbach’s permission, she, her husband James and her father Daryll Davies (conveniently visiting from Cape Breton) went to see the cub. Both her husband and

The dream of establishing a national park in the South OkanaganSimilkameen is still very much alive. Over the past ten years there has been considerable talk about establishing the park, but many of us living in the Boundary know little more about the proposal beyond being aware of the several large, homemade roadside signs that declare, “NO NATIONAL PARK!” that can be seen along the highway. On the evening of November 26, representatives of the South Okana-

gan Similkameen National Park Network (SOSNPN) came to Greenwood city hall to gather support for a push to ask that the provincial government to enter negotiations with the federal government on establishment of the park. Doreen Wilson is a coordinator for the grassroots group that stretches from Penticton to Keremeos. She’s been working on this issue since 2003. Joining her was Chloe O’Loughlin, past executive director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society

loans for all purposes

(CPWS). Some groups, including the CPWS, maintain that this park is essential for the protection of a unique ecosystem – the northern end of the Sonora desert, the only desert in Canada. In 2003 the province announced their interest in the park and together with the federal government produced a proposal in 2006 for a big park (650 sq. km) that included Snowy Protected area.

father are RCMP officers, which came in handy. After the visit Miranda told James, “You have to do something. This poor little bear cub is just sitting in the chicken coop with the chickens running around it - not hurting them, not killing them or anything.” When her husband called the Conservation Service he was told their options were limited that day. “The officer that he spoke to just said destroying it was most likely the best,” Miranda told the Times in an interview a week later. But she wouldn’t take that as the answer without looking for other options. She told her husband to give her a day to make some phone calls and see what she could do. She found the Northern Lights Wildlife Society in Smithers that had room for the cub. Unfortunately Northern Lights doesn’t accept cubs without a conservation officer’s approval. Continued on page 8

The Fun Spot

National park presentation Continued from page 1

O’Loughlin said that after consultation with communities the federal and provincial governments realized that the area was too big and the communities would not accept it. In 2010 a smaller area (284 sq. km) was proposed, with much of the western part of the earlier proposal removed. In early 2012 the provincial government announced that although the national park was feasible they didn’t feel there was enough support at the time to move forward and withdrew from the process. Polling found about 39 per cent of respondents slightly or strongly supported the proposed park, with about 19 per cent slightly or strongly opposed. The other 41 per cent said they neither supported nor opposed the proposal, Doreen Olson and Joe Falkoski look over a map didn’t know, or needed more information before showing the proposed South Okanagan-Similkameen national park reserve. deciding.

Exercise and sticking with it This is a good time of year to consider getting more exercise as many people start off the new year by making a resolution to exercise more. Often the problem with this or other resolutions is sticking with it for more than a few weeks. As I am well into my 61st trip around the sun, I am thinking about exercise and thinking I need to make it more of a habit than I have in the past. We all know that exercise has so many benefits for mind and body; the challenge is how to stick with it long enough for it to become a regular habit. Well, here are some tips that might help you (or me) to really make exercise part of a lifestyle. Why am I exercising? This is the first question to ask yourself. If you can come up with good long-term reasons you are more likely to do it long-term. Make the reasons personal, emphasizing the benefits you expect from all that effort. Do a little research and make a list of the benefits known to come from exercise - they are considerable. Inspirational pictures perhaps of an athlete you would like to emulate can be encouraging. Set goals. Set both a short term (say 3-6 weeks) and longterm goals (a year). Your goals should be SMART meaning they are: S = specific - not just to walk more but to achieve a specific distance or time M = measurable - not just to lose weight but how much A = attainable - an impossible goal brings only discouragement R = relevant - something that will be a benefit to your situation T = time-bound - a goal with no deadline is really no goal at all. A goal for a set time such as a year gives you the oppor-

tunity to say “goal completed” and move on to greater goals. Involve others. Working out with a partner can make it easier and more enjoyable. If you exercise alone you can report your progress to someone else; there are probably even on-line ways to do this. Keeping a record of your exercise can help you be accountable to yourself. Include the benefits you find as an encouragement. Chart your progress in regard to your specific goals. You might even keep a visual record of your improved appearance - take a selfie. Time and excuses. These can short-circuit your good intentions in a hurry. Schedule a good time for exercise in part of the day when you are less likely to face challenges doing it. Come up with ways to deal with the challenges you might face in completing your workout. Be determined to exercise anyway. One trick is to promise yourself that you can stop after ten minutes if you want to. By that point, you’ll likely be into it enough to finish. Find ways to make exercise enjoyable. Listen to good music, audio books etc. Often you can make another use for your exercise time. Exercise will make many other things you do more efficient and the time lost to exercise may be made up. Make it easy on yourself. Having proper equipment can make a big difference in the comfort level of your workout. Good footwear and the right clothing are important. A good pedometer if you are walking or running might be a help to track your progress. Avoid missing too much of your schedule or it will be difficult to keep going but don’t be too hard on yourself if you miss a day. Things come up; just get back on track and keep going. Choose an activity that you enjoy and are likely to do each day. Simply walking is very good. Safety. Make sure you are properly equipped and using proper technique. Of course, make sure the exercise you choose is within your health and fitness capability and there is no medical reason not to do it. You want to avoid injury and remember pain is a signal so if you are having pain back off. There are times of year I have some kind of a bear deterrent when walking. Finally, remember - we are talking exercise - put enough effort into it to get the benefits. Exercise, if done strenuously enough, releases endorphins (feel-good brain chemicals) and you will feel better right away. I went for a brisk walk this afternoon and found it much easier to quickly put this article together as a result.

Deer shortage spurs second meeting Local hunters are concerned enough about the proposed open season on antler-less white tail deer that they are holding their second meeting in less than six weeks to look for ways to get the government to change its’ mind. Tomorrow night – Friday, January 10 at 7 p.m. in the Kettle Wildlife Hall in Rock Creek. The Kettle Wildlife Association sponsored a meeting last November that brought out nearly fifty to hear retired Grand Forks guide outfitter Barry Brandow speak out against the hunt. Brandow maintains that in management units 12, 14 and 15 of Region 8 the white tail doe season must be cut back or eliminated. He said the province has a mule deer recov-

ery program, which calls for the reduction in the white tail herd because it is felt that the white tail will become the dominant species in the area. He was referring to the Kootenay-Boundary Mule Deer Management Plan. The plan calls for the continuation of the antlerless white-tailed deer across the region for the next three years to limit population increases. The plan cites studies that show white tail deer herds are attracting predators, with a consequent fall in mule deer population due to cougar predation. While the province is advocating an open season on white tail does, local hunters are arguing there are none left to be found in the backcountry.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK

A DIVISION OF BLACK PRESS – PRINTED EVERY THURSDAY. Mailing address: Box 99, Greenwood, B.C. V0H 1J0 Street address: 318 South Copper Avenue, Greenwood, B.C.

Survey helps When you leverage your position it usually involves working with others to achieve things you’d be hard pressed to accomplish on your own. That’s what’s happening with the online survey that readers of Black Press community newspapers across the Kootenays are being invited to take part in. With a goal of helping local businesses better understand customers in their community, Black Press has partnered with respected research company Pulse Research to bring the Pulse of West Kootenay survey to readers, which looks at the shopping plans and priorities of our readers and their media reading habits. The Boundary region is included – a benefit of being in the Black Press stable. Reader answers will help gauge the current consumer climate to help local businesses craft new ways to serve their clients and customers.
 Let’s face it – everyone appreciates good service. Here’s an opportunity for local consumers to help local businesses provide exactly that. Confidentiality rules apply of course - reader contact information will only be gathered in order to enter the name into a prize draw for one of five $1,000 cash prizes to be given away across the Kootenays.
 Readers who submit the survey before January 31 will also have their name entered into a draw for a $20 grocery gift card.
 The online survey will take about 35 to 40 minutes, but the upside is you stand to get better service when you shop locally. Plus you get that chance to win one of those five $1,000 prizes. Among the benefits of the study is allowing businesses to identify niche areas of their business, including showing potential areas for growth or expansion.

Pat Kelly: Overcoming obstacles On the morning of Christmas Eve 2013, a Tuesday if you recall, I was scheduled to go to the office – label the December 26 issue of the paper and then go forth on my paper route making deliveries to store racks and post offices. Our paper is usually printed on Wednesday and dropped off overnight in the Greenwood office. But the Christmas season inevitably mean that deadlines get moved forward. Here at the Times we had to meet three printing deadlines within six days. The plan was that both the Dec. 26 and Jan 2 papers would be delivered the truck in Greenwood the morning of the 24th. Needless to say I was ready for a week off myself. The office was to be closed as soon as I delivered the December 26th paper, and that was going to happen on the morning of the 24th - Christmas Eve. After that I wouldn’t have to be back to work until Jan 2nd. So the sooner I got the paper route done the earlier I could get away to visit mom and sis for Christmas. Imagine my surprise when I got to work that morning and found nada! No papers had been delivered! So I started making phone calls. I did my best to keep it together – I tried to remind myself going weird was probably not going to be helpful. My chances of getting papers to Greenwood would fall way off I if I started yelling at the truck driver or dispatcher whose cooperation I needed to solve this problem. So I did calm and nice. After a few calls I found out the papers had been dropped off in Grand Forks and I could go pick them up there. They were several pallets of newspapers behind the Grand Forks Gazette office when I got there. I spotted a pile of papers with our front-page banner on them and started tossing bundles into my car. When I pulled away there were still a couple of pallets

piled high with what looked like copies of the Kootenay News Advertiser and I was thinking how grateful I was not to have that paper route. Getting back to Greenwood I hustled all the bundles into the office, grabbed the subscription mailing labels and started addressing the papers for the post office deliveries. After about half a dozen labels I noticed that I was putting them on the Jan. 2nd issue instead of the Dec. 26th. I looked around the room for a bundle of the Dec. 26th edition and didn’t see a single one. It seems that when I’d unloaded the car I’d just tossed the bundles into a pile. And of course every bundle on top of every pile was dated Jan. 2nd. I freaked! Convinced that I still didn’t have the Dec. 26 papers, I started making phone calls, and by this time I must have been sounding panicked. I phoned the Gazette and had them look out their back door to see if papers were still there. Unfortunately I wasn’t any more specific than that – are there papers still there? - and the answer I got was that, “Yes there are lot’s of papers out there.” So it looked like I was heading back to Grand Forks again. But I got some good advice from one of the little people who was sitting on my shoulder that day. I was pretty sure the papers on those pallets I’d left behind in Grand Forks earlier were all Advertisers. So I called the Gazette one more time and this time I asked the specific question, “Were any of the papers they had copies of the Times?” This time the answer was no. So I went back into the office and reorganized the two piles of bundles. Lesson learned – sort, then struggle. I sure hope Santa didn’t have that kind of trouble making his Christmas Eve deliveries. Take care of someone who loves you …

gen said they had 32 last year; their all-time high was 45 a couple of years ago. Langen said the first cubs they took in this year was a set of triplets. “Somebody walked out of the house in Kamloops and saw a mother bear in his fruit tree. He didn’t like it and shot her and then we had three orphans.” She says most cubs come to the shelter as a result of human intervention – car accidents or their mothers get shot. “That’s how we end up with the cubs that are left behind.” Langen says it would help a lot if people would be more cautious with bear attractants. “Bears only come if there is an attraction. We always tell people if you go out on your front lawn and you spread around a lot of hundred dollar bills you are going to have a lot of nuisance neighbors. It’s no different if you leave a lot of high quality food out when bears are trying to fatten up for the winter. All they are after is food and if you take away the food source then the bear moves on.” Northern Lights has been in operation for 24 years and is licensed by the government. “We look after all mammals moose, deer and whatever else comes in.” “We keep them until they would naturally disperse from their mother which is at about 16 to 18 months.” When Tinsel arrived at the shelter she weighed only 9.5 kg (21 lbs.) when she should have been 25 to 34 kg (55 to 75 lbs.). The plan is to release Tinsel back into the Boundary later this spring.

Readers of Black Press community newspapers across the Kootenays will have a chance to win a cool $1,000 for completing an online survey that will help local businesses better understand customers in their community. Black Press has partnered with respected research company Pulse Research to bring the Pulse of West Kootenay survey to readers, which looks at the shopping plans and priorities of our readers and their media reading habits. Reader answers will help gauge the current consumer climate to help local businesses craft new ways to serve their clients and customers. Responses will be kept completely confidential; reader contact information will only be gathered in order to enter the name into a prize draw for one of five $1,000 cash prizes to be given away across the Kootenays. Readers who submit the survey before January 31 will also have their name entered into a draw for a $20 grocery gift card. The online survey will take about 35 to 40 minutes, erasing the need for readers to spend long periods of time on the phone

answering questions. “We are very excited to be a part of this service to the business community,” says Black Press group publisher Chuck Bennett. “We are pleased to be able to offer this information and are certain it will be beneficial.” The Pulse Research survey has already been successful for businesses. In fact, one client took the results of the research to the bank and was able to secure a loan to expand their business, on the strength of the research. Among the benefits of the study is allowing businesses to identify niche areas of their business, including showing potential areas for growth or expansion. Pulse Research was founded in 1985 to provide publishing clients with research-based advertising sales and marketing programs designed to get results. They are able to deliver insight to businesses who are currently faced with an ever-changing mix of products and services, including web, niche, special sections and deals.

Tinsel was found hanging out with the chickens in Dale Tiffenbach’s coop near Midway. Submitted by Miranda Charles

“But the CO that we were dealing with at that time didn’t give us that,” said Miranda. Constable Charles called the conservation office in Castlegar and reached a conservation officer there who, after talking to the shelter in Smithers, gave the approval - if the bear became trapped it could be transported to the shelter for rehabilitation. Miranda, herself a border officer with Canada Border Services, gave the cub it’s name. Since government projects seem to always be identified with a codename, and since it was Christmas – this became known as Project Tinsel. Meanwhile the cub was still back at the chicken coop – by now having spent at least six days there. Tiffenbach had upped the ration of feed he was putting out for the chickens and was locking the hens away at night. But the conservation officer who approved couldn’t lawfully allow and encourage citizens to go into the coop and trap the cub. However RCMP officers could, and since Miranda’s husband and her father are both RCMP officers you can guess who got volunteered to trap the cub. They enticed Tinsel out with pepperoni sticks. “My dad grabbed the bear and they put him in our dog kennel in the back of the truck and then dad drove to Kamloops on Tinsel’s first leg of her trip to Smithers.” Northern Lights has an agreement with Bandstra Transportation, a trucking company that transports wildlife in distress for them. Daryll was told if he got the bear to Kamloops that night Bandstra would take it the rest of the way. Tinsel arrived at Northern lights on Christmas Eve. In the spring in June or July, if all goes well, she will come back down here to be released. “It wasn’t an option to shoot it,” said Miranda. “We wanted her to have a fighting chance.” Angelika Langen, who with her husband, operates Northern Lights reported this Monday that Tinsel is doing awesome. They didn’t know the sex until they got her sedated for a complete checkup – Tinsel is a female. Langen says Tinsel has no real health concerns – aside from the lack of nourishment. “It will take time but she should make a full recovery,” assured Langen. “All is well. All she needs now is some good food and time to grow and by the time summer comes around she should be caught up to the other cubs that are hibernating.” Northern Lights has ten bear cubs this winter – a smaller number than the average of 20 they look after each year.

Dreaming big in Boundary Country Labour Day long weekend saw the launch of the Ponderosa Arts & Music Festival in Rock Creek – the result of two young men dreaming big. One of these young dreamers was raised in Boundary Country and active in the local 4H program. The other grew up in our neighboring community of Oliver. Both young men were raised with traditional values and a belief that anything is possible when you set your mind to it. Although their dream is to make this festival an annual event, it is in danger of being cancelled before it has a chance to succeed. Events like these require the support of the local community. Maybe you didn’t know about the event but it brought in over 200 people to our community – people who spent money at our gas stations, grocery stores and local shops. And many who had never experienced this part of BC but dream about coming back. Boundary country is a place where hard work, honesty and doing the right thing comes naturally. Look around and see the men and women who have dared to dream, even when it seemed impossible they held on to their

Editor, The Times:

vision that it could be done. The 4H club teaches our young men and women responsibility, honour, integrity and hard work. These values are taught by community leaders who themselves posses those values. Men and women of their word and who you can trust. People who volunteer their time to lead young people and help teach them life skills. These leaders believed that, given the chance, the Boundary young people could make a difference as they themselves had done. They would succeed because someone believed in them, someone took the time to teach them and to care not only for those they know but also for the stranger passing through our area. I encourage everyone in the Rock Creek area to show your support for the Ponderosa Arts & Music Festival. It may not be your type of music but look at the big picture and show your support to the many young people raised in our area who are now attempting to make their dreams come true. I will be supporting the dreamers and hope you will too. Ralph Hargrave Osoyoos

Ravens top West Boundary bird count The 2013 West Boundary bird count was enjoyed by 30 participants who sighted 54 species including 1989 individuals while last year 60 species with 2,649 individuals were counted. This year’s count is average for both number of species and number of individuals. The 2006 count, which involved 60 species and 3,893 individuals, is the highest count on record. The West Boundary count area includes all of the West Boundary starting from and including Eholt. Ravens topped the count this year with 294 birds sighted. California quail were second with 226; last year they were third with 189. Black capped chickadees took third place this year with 191 being sighted while Mountain chickadees with 118 individuals were fourth. Yeah for the chickadees as they are consistently near the top of the list. Unusual sightings included 5 Robins, 1 Ferruginous hawk, 1 Northern saw-whet owl and two White-winged scoters. No Ring-necked Pheasants have been observed for the last four years. For many years they were regular residents at the Harpur ranch along Myers Creek. Also missing this year were Evening grosbeaks, Pine siskins and Red crossbills, flocks of which are seen pecking gravel along the highways with some often hit by vehicles. Many thanks to everyone who participated. The more people who participate the better the count. The full count details are: Great Blue Heron-2 Mallard-24; Common goldeneye-3; White winged scoter-2; American dipper-16; Belted Kingfisher-8; Bald eagle-51; Golden eagle-5; Ferruginous hawk-1; Red tailed hawk-4; Kestrel-2; Rough-legged hawk-10; Northern shrike-1; Pygmy owl-5; Great horned owl-2;; Downy woodpecker-23; Hairy woodpecker-15; Northern flicker-30; Pileated woodpecker-19; Lewis woodpecker-3; Grey Jay-13; Stel-

Smart meter opt-out approved Assessments coming January Fees for those wishing to opt out of the Smart Meter program have been approved by the BC Utilities Commission (BCUC). FortisBC filed an application at the end of August outlining their proposed radio-off option for the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) project. “After a public and transparent regulatory process, the BCUC has approved our radio-off application, with changes to the proposed fees,” FortisBC stated in press release on Friday, December 20. Approved fees are: • Per-premise set-up fee of $60 for those who choose a radio-off AMI meter before meter upgrades begin in their region. • Per-premise set-up fee of $88 for those who choose a radio-off meter after meter upgrades begin in their region. • Bi-monthly per-read fee of $18. “Advanced meters provide numerous benefits to our customers, stated Neal Pobran Manager, Corporate Communications for FortisBC. “However, we recognize that some of our customers do have concerns. The radio-off option gives customers who have concerns about advanced meters the choice to receive an advanced meter with the radio transmissions disabled.” GREENWOOD Pobran said the fees recover only the cost of providing customers with the radio-off option, and do Sacred Heart Catholic Church not provide FortisBC with additional revenue.

Bud Edwin Hallstrom

Feburary 21, 1956 December 28, 2013 Bud Hallstrom was born to Jim and Rose Hallstrom at the Boundary Hospital on February 21, 1956. Bud grew up and lived on the corner of Boundary Creek Road for 57 and a half years. On August 23, 1980 he would marry the love of his life, Patricia (Trish) Winchester, having two children shortly after, Jayme Herbert (March 13, 1982) and Breann Rose (February 20, 1986). He worked to keep our highways clear for 35 plus years with twin brother Lief right beside him. Through the many campings and family outings, Bud would talk to anyone given the opportunity, and if you were fortunate enough to know him well, you were usually blessed with a nickname. The Hallstrom family would like to thank their friends, health care professionals, psychologists, psychiatrists, and all others that helped Bud during his battle with mental illness, as well as their continued support since his passing. Bud is survived by his mother Rose Hallstrom, sister Delle (Norm) Hoffman, brothers John and Lief (Julie) Hallstrom, children Jayme (Kendra) and Breann Hallstrom (Bill Campbell), nephews Dylan Hallstrom (Jade Bennett) and Devin Hallstrom (Stacy Ludwar), and granddaughters Jacey and Kennady Hallstrom. Bud was predeceased by his father James Johnson Hallstrom. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to the “Bud Hallstrom Memorial Fund dedicated to Mental Health Services” located at the Heritage Credit Union in Greenwood.

As 2014 marks BC Assessment’s 40th anniversary, property owners can expect to receive their 2014 assessment notices in early January. “Most homes in the South Okanagan are remaining stable in value compared to last year’s assessment roll,” said Tracy Wall, Deputy Assessor. “Most home owners in the South Okanagan will see modest changes in the + 5 to -5 per cent range.” Overall, the South Okanagan’s Assessment Roll decreased from $19,636,475,825 last year to $19,516,491,502 this year. The 2014 assessment roll includes $217,229,016 for subdivisions, rezoning and new construction. According to a press release from BC Assessment Authority local market trends for residential properties fell in all three incorporated Boundary municipalities. Jurisdiction 2013 Assessment Roll 2014 Assessment Roll (valuation date of July 1, 2012) (valuation date of July 1, 2013) Grand Forks $206,000 $199,000 Greenwood $126,000 $125,000 Midway $189,000 $178,000 The Boundary is included in the South Okanagan Assessment Roll where owners of commercial and industrial properties in the South Okanagan will see changes ranging from +5 per cent to -10 per cent. “Property owners who feel that their property assessment does not reflect market value as of July 1, 2013 or see incorrect information on their notice should contact BC Assessment as indicated on their notice as soon as possible in January,” said Wall. “If a property owner is still concerned about their assessment after speaking to one of our appraisers, they may submit a Notice of Complaint (Appeal) by January 31, for an independent review by a Property Assessment Review Panel,” added Wall. The Property Assessment Review Panels, independent of BC Assessment, are appointed annually by the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, and meet between February 1 and March 15 to hear formal complaints. Visit www.bcassessment.ca for more information about the 2014 Assessment Roll including lists of 2014’s top 100 most valuable residential properties across the province. In B.C., approx. 87.7 per cent of all properties are classified with some residential (Class 1) component. This equates to over $864 billion of the value on the total provincial roll. Over 98 per cent of property owners accept their property assessment without proceeding to a formal, independent review of their assessment. Assessments are the estimate of a property’s market value as of July 1, 2013 and physical condition as of October 31, 2013. This common valuation date ensures there is an equitable property assessment base for property taxation. Changes in property assessments reflect movement in the local real estate market and can vary greatly from property to property. When estimating a property’s market value, BC Assessment’s professional appraisers analyze current sales in the area, as well 1924 - 2013 as considering other characteristics such With great sadness, we announce the death of our as size, age, quality, beloved husband, dad, condition, view and grandpa, brother and uncle, location.

HUGS S and G U L S

In the December 19th Hugs and Slugs column we gave a hug when it should have been a slug. To set the record straight…. Slugs: To people illegally fishing on Jewel Lake. Would someone ask the CO to take the newspaper off of his speed dial now please? Hugs:To all the emergency service workers and their families who stand ready to put their own holiday plans on hold at a moments notice to come to the aid of others.

Slugs: To the Midway Library for the holiday hours; especially when kids are off on winter break. Hugs: To the volunteers who stepped in at the last minute to organize the Greenwood community Christmas dinner. Slugs: To the person who informed the local radio station that the Greenwood Communitydinner was cancelled. Shame on you for being so spiteful.

The smell of fresh paint was in the air as the Greenwood Volunteer Fire Department (GVFD) held their annual general meeting in a newly refurbished hall last Sunday morning.

Elected as officers for the coming year are: Okanogan, Washington, USA Chief Roy Terashita – returned by acclamation (off Hwy 97 by the casino) Deputy Chief Dean Higashi – elected by acclamation Winter Rate Special Assistant Chief Wayne Durban – returned by acclamation $ 00(plus tax) Treasurer Mark Seymour – elected by acclamation Secretary Diane Lapalme – elected by acclamation Bring this coupon in Training Officer Rob Smith – returned by acclamation and get an extra 5% off Safety Officer Liz Mann – returned by acclamation (certain conditions apply) First Responder training is proceeding for both the GVFD and West For reservation call 1-877-422-7070 Boundary Highway Rescue.
