along with Bo Macfarlane, told the Times that if anyone came to win a prize they had come to the wrong tournament. The game between the Midway men’s teams was switched up a bit this year. Anyone wanting to play had to register by noon the Saturday before the tournament, because that night an NHLstyle draft was conducted to set the team rosters. Macfarlane said this is the biggest game of the whole year for the players on these two teams, with huge bragging rights on the line. “I have never played a game like that before,” he told the Times on Sunday afternoon. “It was awesome!” Proceeds go to the Halstrom fund, rec hockey, minor hockey and hats for Old Timers (some with the word ‘Champion’ on them—others not).

Quote of the Week: The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896 - 1940), “The Crack-Up” (1936)

‘Connection key’: Feist
Village of Midway Administrator Penny Feist attended the Zone 4 Fire Chiefs meeting on Jan. 24 in Creston. This was the first year that municipal staff were invited to send representatives to the monthly meeting. Feist reported they heard a 3½ hour presentation on liability issues by Pam Jefcoat and Sonia Sahota from Valkyrie Law. Topics covered included civil liability, policy versus operational decision making, criminal liability (Bill C45 amendments to the Criminal Code), organizational liability, areas of potential liability exposure, and risk management strategies. Michael Currie, Director Fire Underwriters Survey (FUS), gave a two-hour presentation and overview of what fire insurance grades are, how the grades are used by insurers, understanding the insurance lingo, how communities benefit from FUS, and how much can property owners save. They also heard from Robert Krause, forest protection officer from the Nadina Forest District and firefighter for the Burns Lake Rural Fire Protection Area, who presented on wildland fire protection and volunteer retention and recruitment issues. Regarding retention and recruitment, Feist wrote in her report, “There is a trend in Canada that volunteerism is on a downward spiral, particu-
larly with respect to fire departments. In the past, locals would sign up on a volunteer basis to just fight fires and fire departments were operated more like a community club; but now, they’re finding more and more what they’re actually doing is administrating a department. There’s a lot of paperwork, training and certification requirements that is very time consuming, especially given that most are still in the work force and have families.” She said the Fire Chiefs Association of BC (FCABC) is developing a program to provide resource materials to address this critical issue at the provincial level, including the lack of province-wide standard. Feist mentioned a 2009 report entitled Public Safety BC, Transforming the Fire/Rescue Service that was authored with a broad base of stakeholder participation. She said the report was submitted to the provincial government for review and has generated interest from fire service organizations not only in B.C. but across the country as well. Recommendations were made to both the provincial and local governments. Immediate priorities to be addressed by the province are to standardize competencies and training, and to support training, recruitment and retention for volunteer departments. Immediate priorities to be
addressed by local government are to investigate local and regional efficiencies, and to provide administrative and management support to volunteer departments. Over the long term the FCABC calls upon the provincial government to enforce competency, training and operating standards by initiating the development of a strategy for improving firefighter competencies over an extended transition period, including a deadline for all volunteer firefighters to attain the basic fire fighting certificate, and mandatory fire department registration and certification. “The requirements for fire departments has escalated to a point where even paid chiefs are finding it hard to keep up with the regulations and requirements. “Everyone expressed that keeping the CAOs and fire chiefs connected and involved in fire department matters is key in ensuring everyone stays up to date on what is going on, and to ensure there isn’t any expectations nor surprises from either side with respect to resources, training requirements, decisions, etc,” Feist wrote. Upon Feist’s recommendation, council voted to support the Zone 4 FCA proposal that future annual FCA Zone 4 meetings are to include their respective local government CAOs as well.
Bylaw changes meeting regs
At their regular meeting on Monday, Feb. 3, Midway Council adopted Bylaw No. 450, a bylaw to regulate the meetings of council and committees. The changes will see two new opportunities for those in the gallery to ask questions during a meeting—near the beginning of the meeting right after delegations/presentations and again after mayor and council have given their own reports. When in-camera issues must be dealt with, council will meet behind closed doors immediately prior to the regular meeting. *** The Boundary District Curling Club wrote a letter to Midway council explaining that they do not generate enough cash flow to pay the premium on the building and content insurance coverage. “Our insurance premiums have increased drastically over the last number of years,” wrote president Lisa Baia. She noted they had doubled between 2007 and 2010 and then doubled again over the next three years, now costing nearly $2,500. “We certainly understand the ramifications of having no building and content insurance; how-

ever, we are left with no alternative,” wrote Baia. “If the village can come up with any solutions we would be more than happy to discuss them, if not, please cancel our coverage with the village.” Council directed staff to recommend the curling club apply for a grant from the Midway Partnership Fund and the letter will be placed in the budget file for further discussion by council as they develop the budget for the coming year. *** Councillor Marguerite Rotvold reported she has been re-elected as chair of the West Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital Board. She also told council that Ingrid Hempf, regional director of acute care for Kootenay Boundary with the Interior Health Authority, will be retiring in August. *** Rotvold also reported that the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) is sending two resolutions to the
Association of Kootenay and Boundary Local Governments (AKBLG): That the province of B.C. provide clearer legislation that establishes respectful, reasonable and responsible guidance as to how electoral area directors and regional districts are to manage extended absences by electoral area directors due to illness or injury; and that the province of B.C. refrain from implementing any changes in the B.C. Ambulance Service response guidelines or First Responder Protocols until such time as meaningful and effective consultation with local government has occurred to ensure that the needs of the local community are being met. The RDKB board voted to send a letter to Victoria recommending the retention of the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) as one province-wide zone; retention of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) as a province-wide, independent administrative body with judicial powers, and; provision of an opportunity for local governments to discuss any proposed changes to the ALR with the province and the ALC.

Turnout for AGM best ever Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to come to our annual general meeting last month. It was our best turnout ever, with 27 people in attendance. And thanks to our retiring board members: Ann Mudrie, Hiromi Izuka and Je-Anne McNeil, who have all contributed greatly to the library during their combined 19 years on the board. New board members were elected: Shawn Whitelegg (returning after a year off ); and Lynn Thomas and Nola Tutti, who have come on the board for the first time but are no strangers as they are regular volunteers. We look forward to a good year with a board of eight members. Storytime for preschool children ages 3-5 years, and their parents/caregivers, is back! Wednesday mornings at 10:30 is the time to come to the library for stories,

songs, action rhymes, puppets and simple crafts. It’s also a chance to meet other parents and children, and get them used to a bit of structure in the years before they enter kindergarten. This free, dropin program continues through April 9. I mentioned the new Interlibrary Loan program that has just started in the Kootenays in last month’s column. It is called KLF (for Kootenay Library Federation) Connect, and we are excited to offer this new service to our patrons. You may now access the catalogues of 16 libraries in the West and East Kootenays from the comfort of your own home computer. All you need is your Green-
wood Public Library card, an Iinternet connection, and our website address: http://greenwood.bclibrary.ca. Simply click on “Search the Greenwood Library Catalogue” on our home page; then select “Kootenay Library Federation” instead of just Greenwood Public Library as the catalogue to search, and search for what you want. Once you have found it, you can place a hold the item and it will be shipped to the Greenwood library, and you will be notified by email or phone that it is ready for pickup. Most items that have been in the other libraries for more than a year are eligible for borrowing, including books, audiobooks, and DVDs/videos. (Some of the libraries do have some restrictions.) We hope you enjoy this new service—any questions, please drop in the library and we will help you.

The regional district directors are considering granting themselves a raise. At the Jan. 30 Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) board meeting in Grand Forks, a motion to approve an increase to the director’s monthly stipend by $200 per month, plus $200 per month for a technology allowance (which would combine the present $75 cell phone allowance and $175 technology allowance) and establish a car allowance of $50 per month. The amount would represent a 36-per-cent increase. The presentation on the raise was done by Trail director

Robert Cacchioni to the policy, executive and personnel (PEP) committee, said Grace McGregor, RDKB board chair. “It showed the widening gap between what municipal directors get paid and what electoral area directors get paid,” she said. Electoral area directors represent rural areas A, B, C, D and E in the Kootenay-Boundary, while the remaining directors, the municipal directors, represent larger areas such as towns and cities. McGregor said the motion was deferred to allow PEP to look at the issue more in depth with the information Cacchioni provided. McGregor said the different directors play different roles with the RDKB board providing the only local government for the electoral areas. “We make different decisions,” she said. “That is our main government whereas municipal directors, their main government is their council. So they sit at that table because they share some services as a regional district.” Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, who sits as the chair of the PEP committee, said it would be an interesting challenge for the committee to have to go over the remuneration issue once again. “There needs to be more discussion, that’s why it’s back at PEP,” he said.

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.
ALC support becoming vocal Adam Olsen, interim leader of the BC Green Party, warns that the BC Liberals are changing the rules of the game for the Agricultural Land Commission. Last month B.C. Agriculture Minister Pat Pimm responded to Olsen’s Nov. 14, 2013 letter to Premier Christy Clark regarding the core review and the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC). Olsen is troubled by the minister’s response. Pimm wrote, “Participation in the Core Review will not undermine the core mandate of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) which is to protect the province’s most productive (italics added) farmland.” Olsen maintains the addition of “most productive” to this sentence is a game-changer. “By adding these words, the ministry changes the mandate of the ALC, which has never been to protect the most productive farmland,” Olsen claims. It appears in the case of the ALC, this current core review is not about the best interests of agriculture; rather it is about freeing thousands of hectares of agricultural land from the ALC, opening once preserved lands to non-agricultural development opportunities, especially natural gas development. Articles in the Globe and Mail by Mark Hume have outlined a government plan to move the ALC from being an independent body into ministry control and to divide it into two zones. The government has tried to prevent the ALC from fulfilling its’ mandate in question of the proposed Site C dam as well. If the Site C dam goes ahead, about 3,000 hectares of farmland will be inundated by a reservoir. The movement to protect farmland has been picking up momentum since November when leaked cabinet documents surfaced proposing to restrain the Agricultural Land Commission and give more power over farmland to the B.C. Oil and Gas Commission.

Letters to the editor
How many more must die? Editor, The Times:
Are our tax dollars going to pesticide companies to spray our roads and trails so we can get poisoned, cancer, and other serious health problems? How many more children must die before somebody stops the use of these deadly chemicals? The CCPA Monitor, in July/August 2001, states three million people in the world each year are poisoned by these deadly chemicals. They also state “Pesticides include weedkillers (also known as herbicides).” In February 1980, National Geographic published 40 pages of study on “The Pesticide Dilemma”. Chemical spraying has been going on since 1945. They
have been spraying our roads and trails since 2001. The West Coast Environmental Law stated in July 2001 “Pesticides are toxic or biocidal substances that are intended to kill or seriously harm living things.” “They are found in the air, soil, water, precipitation, birds, fish, wildlife, domestic animals and human beings, including newborns.” National Geographic states, “Yet another complication: pesticides in drinking water. Last year in California, state health officials discovered surprising levels of the soil fumigant DBCP in some wells of water systems serving 420,000 people. DBCP had percolated down to groundwater. “Dr. Keith T. Maddy, staff toxicologist of the California Department of Food and Ag-
riculture, is concerned about DBCP’s carcinogenicity, or power to cause cancer. DPA considers lifetime use of water carrying as little as one part per billion of DBCP (equivalent to one drop in 12,000 gallons) to be unsafe.” When will our groundwater be poisoned? I urge everyone to write or email the minister of environment and other government offices in Victoria or phone 1-877-952-7277 in Nelson and Andreas WinsPurdy at 1-250-490-8257 in Penticton. Also talk to your local governments. Tell them you do not want your tax dollars to go to poisoning our neighbourhoods. There are safe alternatives to pesticides. If you sow pesticides you reap poison. Gladys Brown, Midway
Bill C-18 must be stopped Editor, The Times: Bill C-18, an omnibus bill, the Agricultural Growth Act, went to Parliament for first reading Dec. 9, 2013. While Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz claims to be working for farmers, the bills he brings to parliament actually take power and wealth from farmers and give these to multinational chemical companies. Passing Bill C-18 would make Canada compliant with UPOV ’91, a much more restrictive form of Plant Breeders’ Rights than we currently have. The second part of the act will prepare Canada’s regulatory regime for fast track approval of feed or food additives, drugs or other inventions
that are already approved in jurisdictions we trade with. After a groundswell of farmer-led opposition to adopting UPOV ’91 in 2005, the Liberal government of the day let it quietly die, as it became clear that farmers would be drastically restricted in their ability to save, reuse, exchange and sell seed. The Canadian public clearly demanded that genetic resources remain a public good. Bill C-18 in fact also empowers government to remove, restrict or limit the farmer’s seed-saving privilege by passing regulations, a process that can happen quickly and without public debate. Bill C-18 must be stopped because it can so compromise the ability of Canadians to grow safe, non-genetically
modified, food sustainably. Jane Marshall, Midway Ed. note: The National Farmers Union (NFU) has produced a detailed analysis of Bill C-18, the Agricultural Growth Act omnibus bill. For more information visit: nfu.ca/issues/save-our-seed NFU Recommendations: • Stop Bill C-18 • Adopt a new seed law based on the NFU’s Principles for a Farmers’ Seed Act • Re-establish and increase funding for public plant breeding institutions and public researchers and resume public plant breeding to the variety level. • Reorient Canada’s agricultural laws towards the principles of food sovereignty—healthy food, ecological sustainability and democratic control.

From Junior to Wild
Riders Dare to
Drag
More than 200 race fans turned out on a cold day on Saturday, Feb. 1 to watch the 5th annual Kettle Valley Racing Association Snowmobile Drags at the Midway airport. MLA Linda Larson stood on the straw bales to do the drop that started the first race (bottom photo). Race organizer Darrin Metcalf said that five years in the race had some growing pains. The number of sleds and riders was up this year and that caused the race to run until after dark. “As soon as you get bigger you get issues that slow you down a bit. I think we got them all figured out for next year,” said Metcalf. PHOTOS: JOLLY McMYNN

Application forms from Greenwood Charitable organizations are now being accepted by The Greenwood Improvement Society (TGIS) for grant funding. Funding is available for projects in the following fields of interest: • Children & Families • Health & Welfare • Elderly & Special Care • Youth Activities • Arts & Culture • Tourism • Libraries & Education • Heritage, History & Environment • Religious Organizations if the purpose significantly benefits the community at large.
For the love of fishing Trystan Jamieson (left), Keegan Jamieson, Clint McKay and Draedyn Jamieson came from Carmi to participate in the 3rd annual Wilgress Lake Fishing Derby.
Attendance was down at the 3rd annual Wilgress Lake Ice Fishing Derby with only about half the number of fishers turned out. The bitterly cold weather on the first two days may have had something to do with it; there were also free Family Day activities this year in Grand Forks and Phoenix Ski Hill. The Boundary All Nations Aboriginal Council (BANAC) and the Boundary Metis Community Association (BMCA) sponsored the fishing derby. The first year the event was organized as a fun way to raise funds for the Grand Forks Fall Fair Committee. Last year $1,200 went to the Sunshine Valley Child Care Society to help enhance quality care for children with special needs. Proceeds from this year’s derby will go to support archery, canoeing and camping youth programs sponsored by BANAC and BMCA. Co-organizer Danny Williamson said the two groups have a family focus and a family tradition. “If families need help we want to be there for them.” Because the fishing derby happened so close to Valentine’s Day they also made up some special Valentine’s baskets to be drawn. “For the Love of Fishing,” they called them. The tournament ran from Saturday morning until Monday afternoon. Williamson and co-organizer Greg Sterling work hard to help the derby evolve. This year they added an ice sculpture contest. “We are trying to make the weekend kid-friendly,” Sterling said, adding, “And all you need is a
license (if over 16), pail and a fishing rod.” This year the youngest fisherman to weigh in a fish was seven years old; the oldest was 64. Sponsors this year included Canadian Tire, the Winnipeg Liquor Store, Emcon for keeping the road open, Alpine Taxidermy, Success By 6, and many downtown businesses in Grand Forks. Willliamson and Sterling extended special thanks to brothers Ted and Al Kabatoff, who helped round up all the prizes.
Results of the 2014 derby are: Adults: 1st place – Daryl McNevin, 2nd place – Kyle Duguay and 3rd place – Mike Parodowski. Boys Under 16: 1st place – Trystan Jamieson, 2nd place – Devon Anderson and 3rd place – Stephen D’Appolonia. Girls under 16: 1st place – Courtney Best, 2nd place – Caitlyn Best and 3rd place – Sandra Poznikoff. Entry Ticket Winner – A $250 hockey bag sponsored by Winnipeg Liquor Store was won by Daryl McNevin. Snow Sculpturing Contest: 1st place – Anderson Family (The One That Got Away Wilgress Snow Fish), 2nd place – Atkinson and Wiebe Family (Wilgress Snow Mermaid), 3rd place – Caitlyn Best (Wilgress Snow Dog) and 4th place – Lucas Wodyga and Ben Podmoroff (Wilgress Snow Snake).
Frasers order 7,500th pizza
Jordan, Janine Fraser and family (Lauren, Carly and Matthew) will be enjoying pizza at least one night per week over the next month because they called in their order on Feb. 5 just in time to claim the prize for ordering the 7,500th pizza from Bored Room Bistro in Midway. “We did not tell Jordan when he called in his order and when he got here to pick it up we had Matthew open the pizza box,” explained RJ Lesher, who runs the business six days per week with her husband Tom. “Matthew was excited to do it for us (he loves pizza), and when Jordon saw the congratulations scrawled on the inside of the cover of the box he got quite excited too. Matthew was not quite sure what was going on except for the fact he was going to get pizza once a week for a month. On the way out he said, ‘See ya later boss’.” The Bistro began selling their made-from-scratch pizzas on Nov. 14, 2012. Earlier milestones were hit on Feb. 8 (1,000th pizza), May 11 (2,500th) and Sept. 4 (5,000th). The next milestone will be the 10,000 pizza sold, said RJ and Tom.

Students prepare for graduation
Introducing
In conversation with members of the Class of 2014
Julia Baxmann Those fortunate enough to have enjoyed last December’s production of West Side Story on stage at BCSS were fortunate to catch Julia Baxmann’s performance in the role of Maria. One of the central roles in the play, the part has a lot of lines. All well delivered. But there was a time—back when Julia was a child of six—that her performance would have appeared highly unlikely. Julia explained that she didn’t speak any English at all when her family immigrated to Alberta from Germany and she found herself in public school with a huge learning curve ahead of her. So she kept quiet and listened and learned. So quiet in fact that she didn’t say anything at all for a long time.
“They all thought I couldn’t talk,” recalls Julia. “When I did, everyone was very shocked. I wanted it to be perfect when I spoke.” Later, in Grade 10, the little girl who wouldn’t speak until she could speak correctly went on to win the Junior English Award in Grade 10 when she scored 100 per cent on the English provincial exam. The family moved to Christian Valley in 2010. They’ve built their own home and live completely off the grid. With 80 ewes on the ranch Julia says there is a two to four week stretch each year when you have to get up early and stay up late to make sure the lambing is going okay.
Introducing
David Launier
David Launier came to BCSS in Grade 9—he was persuaded to transfer to this school district from Osoyoos by his neighbor Jennifer Hoffmeister who graduated from BCSS last June. “She told me how this school is so nice—that since this school was so small, the teachers are so nice and since there is not so many kids there is more one-on-one time with the teacher,” he explained. “I thought it would be good for me because some subjects I have trouble in so I need more one-on-one time with the teachers and it would help me out lot.” “It’s been really good. The teachers really care about the students and not just want you to just get through the course. They actually care about you.” He said his two main extracurricular activities in high school have been Spirit Club and the golf club, which he and his brother were founding members in. “I tried joining soccer this year but I am not really a soccer player. I just wanted to help out the school a little bit because they didn’t have a lot of players.” He credits his dad with introducing himself and his brother to sports. Especially golf. “When I was young I was put into this junior linker program in Osoyoos, David recalls. “In the summertime we would go down to the golf course every Sunday and they taught us how to play. About three years ago I started teaching little kids. Since I had the
Julia attended large schools in Alberta and notes that studying at a smaller school like BCSS seems more like being part of a large family. “You can be more personal with the teachers than you can in a large school. That helps with your grades.” “One quality I’ve developed since grade ten is leadership,” says Julia. I came to BCSS from a large, formal school, which made it difficult to take action in any way. At BCSS the faculty is very supportive of students stepping up and taking on the role of a leader in an idea they’d like to pursue.” On piano, she completed conservatory Canada Grades 1-5 and honours standing
connection with the program I wanted to help out too. I did that for a couple of years and then started joining in the tournaments in the Kootenays—the zone 1 tournaments with my brother. I came to realize how many good kids are out there who really want to play golf. I pushed myself to play better than them so I have been practicing a lot at the driving range and we bought a golf simulator for my house. It is in the garage so I have been practicing that in the winter.” Last year he made the cut to the BC Junior Championships in Revelstoke. “That was my first championship tournament and even though I didn’t make the final cut it was still pretty good because it was with the best kids in B.C. “I was good enough to get into it and I got a lot of experience just playing against all these great kids and I realized I had a lot of work to do. It is motivating.” He looks forward to the BCSS golf team that will be on the links again this spring. David is planning on getting his golf instructor certificate and beginning to teach—with kids first and then working his way up to adults. He’s worked at the Osoyoos Golf Club, doing everything from cleaning carts and golf clubs to booking tee times and serving from the kitchen. “I am usually there alone towards the end of the day. He trusts me to control the whole business. He trusts me to do it right.” He will be working there again this summer
in 2009. Julia is a year younger than her classmates because she skipped Grade 7. This fall she plans to be at UBC studying for a Bachelor of Arts followed by a Bachelor of Education—then to become an elementary school teacher. “It is really important that early on students have good interactions with their teachers,” she insists. “If you have a really good elementary teacher it can make a huge difference. I had a really good one in kindergarten.” She is looking for a local summer job. “I worked a lot at the ranch – having a large family (eight people) means you help out when you can.” Her immediate goal though is to get straight A’s in Grade 12. A lot can be said in a good quotation, and students are invited to choose an inspirational quote to record in their exit interview file. Julia chose: “If your dreams don’t scare you, they are not big enough.” - Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
and then he’ll go for his instructor’s certificate. David explained that it’s a matter of taking an online course followed by four years of proving himself. His first job (other than working for his parents) was at Fernandes Packing House in Osoyoos “My parents usually let me take it easy, but with other people you have to go with their orders and do what they want. That really changed me.” He’s also worked at Dolci Deli in Osoyoos, first as a dishwasher and then, “They kept throwing me out in the front to get some experience with the customers. I was a little shaky at first.” One of his memorable experiences was dropping the mayor’s sandwich on the floor while carrying it to the table. David also put in time working at Rattlesnake Canyon amusement park in Osoyoos. Being of Mexican heritage (his mother is Mexican and his father is French Canadian), he is thinking of moving to Mexico for six months to get the golfing experience. The family went down over the winter school break and he got his scuba certificate. More an athletic guy than an academic, David has played hockey since he was seven—helping his team win the banner in their Bantam year. He also won Athlete of the Year in Grade 8. David has a bright future, but some of the schooling he’s done might have been a bit overboard. He might have gotten all he needed by learning to count only as far as “fore”.

The small place by the river KETTLE RIVER [For Ben - may you grow up tall] Q&A
GRAHAM WATT
There once was a small place, a wet place nearby A river ran by it, and through it sometimes The cottonwoods swayed in the summertime breeze Neighbours, near and far, their eyes did it please.
A village of creatures with tails and webbed feet, Feathers and claws and fur-covered seats Knew of each other in their many calls By friends and neighbours alike as the “smalls”
But nearby the small place there others did dwell In the tall’s place, with hard things and buildings like shells A flat place with black things and shiny sharp clatters So by smalls the talls were known as the “atters”
The atters took pride in their toil and their strife In seizing the most out of day and of life, Leaving no stone unearthed they look and they look, In every last corner for some wealth they mis-took.
The smalls in the river had but one place to go To weather the storms till floodwaters slow To swim in the settling silt clay and sand Hunting for creatures from both water and land But now with no place they crawled on the bank Called up at the atter, said “are you to thank, For this mess, for this loss of our village so dear How will we live now in your field so clear?”
A look of dismay crossed his eyes, it was plain With wonder, and sorrow, and pain, he exclaimed, “But I did not know, I was blind, did not see I thought it was my land to do as I pleased!” “I thought of the profits rich bottomland yields In fresh ploughed and seeded flat floodplainy fields But floodwaters fell leaving more stucky muck And sinkholes gave way taking my whole dump truck!”
“Put it back!” they cried, “though you can’t overnight” “We’ll put it back!” cried the tall, “with all of our might.” “I won’t let my land and your land slip away, So help me, please - what do you say?”
“From wetland to dryland, this bothersome muck, I’ll just take some fill with my monster dump-truck. Away with this wet loathsome nuisance says me, And soon with my tractor I’ll plant it with seed.”
The floodwaters slowed, and they all got to work. The tall returned boulders to each bend and each quirk The smalls gathered brush, planting poles in a pile, And by the end of the summer, the tall stood with a smile,
So by spring all around talls noticed and fretted But no one, not one, did anything about it Till one tall one shouted and asked far and near Did anyone notice, does anyone care?
Surveying the wetland, no wasteland, he saw, A flourishing village, stable banks without flaw, A meadow of flowers, his bees would enjoy, Giving honey and herbs for the talls he employed,
Smalls cried out too but the atter couldn’t hear Too busy dumping and sandbagging I fear For under his sandbank the river was coursing New courses and channels and rapids were forcing
Because that was the time of the oft-troubled flow When the river it wriggled, and squiggled, and growed, Over the banks it did charge with a frightening might Carrying boulders, and tree trunks, as if they were slight!
Smart meter installation begins
Now his tractors are quiet, most days and nights, The tall works with nature, instead of a fight. His fields, with nut shrubs and fruit trees, so lush Catch soil every springtime when the river does rush. So harken this story of woe, and restoring The place of the smalls alongside talls, with adoring To your grandchildren, and theirs, it truly will matter, That you grew up so tall, and left behind being an atter. Graham Watt is the coordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan for the RDKB, and is working with a Stakeholder Advisory Group from across the region to develop the plan.

FortisBC customers who are concerned about advanced meters when they go in this year can opt for a radiooff option. The cost, which was approved by BCUC last December, is $60 before the meters are installed and $88 afterwards. The customers would also have to pay $18 every two months to have the meter read manually. FortisBC’s Neal Pobran said the company hopes to begin exchanging the meters starting this summer. He says they will notify customers by letter a month before to let them know. “We’re expecting to be done all the meter exchanges by the end of 2015,” he said.

The atter stood tall and looked all about To see what was there with such a small shout So he stooped, lowered, kneeled, and noticed at last The village of smalls he’d knocked over so fast
“And who are you, little ones, now I see you so small?” “We’re smalls” said the creatures, “and once and for all, Stop being an atter and we’ll call you a tall If you give us our homes back, and places to crawl!”
In the tall place an atter, a tall one, so smart, Looked over the small place and said, “there I’ll start My fields are not endless they come to a stop Where I should be farming I simply cannot!”
What you call JUNK could be someone’s TREASURE.

Leadership clinic coming to Kootenays
The Columbia Basin Environmental Education Network (CBEEN) is offering an environmental education opportunity in the Kootenay region. This spring, eight teams of four will have the opportunity to participate in the Kootenay’s first Environmental Education Leadership Clinic, to be held April 26 -29. Taking place adjacent to Kootenay National Park at Nipika Mountain Resort, the leadership clinic will give regional organizations the opportunity to team build, action plan and work with others who are doing similar work across the country. CBEEN is looking at this clinic being used as the scaffolding to host a much larger national conference in the Kootenays in 2017 which would bring hundreds of practitioners and academics to the region. To find out more or to apply to attend go to www.cbeen.org/leadership_clinic.

‘Village’ on display
Myrna Charlton estimates there is over 80 hours of work in the quilt that hangs behind the librarian’s desk at the Greenwood library. She made the quilt through a course she took from Grand Forks quilter Liz Faminoff. “It is Liz’s design but I liberally changed it to suit myself,” she explained. The course went from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for three days plus overtime. “We had to show up at the course with our background fully prepared because we spent the three days cutting out the elements and fusing them to the background.” Then the projects were taken home and stitching was done around each element and the details—the “In the Village” is a beautiful quilt by Mryna Charlton now on display at the Greenwood Library. jewelry, flowers, etc.— were added. Go-Go’s that are sold through Deadwood JuncIt was then quilted, which was done using a tion. technique known as free motion quilting so you Myrna invites folks to stop by the Greenwood can move the fabric any way you want so you can library (where she volunteers) to view the quilt do curves. and urges those who are not members of the liShe says she made quilts for her kids using brary to take out a membership, “So they may the old method, but then did nothing until about enjoy our beautiful library.” Made all the more beautiful by her quilt.
