Students preparing for annual powwow

$1.10 (includes GST)

BY BRIAN LAWRENCE Advance Editor

Students in the Aboriginal education program at Creston Valley schools have been particularly busy lately, putting the finishing touches on their regalia for the School District No. 8 (Kootenay Lake) youth powwow, which runs tomorrow at the Creston and District Community Complex.

The fourth annual festival is moving there from the Prince Charles Secondary School (PCSS) gym, where it has been held for the last three years, a location it has outgrown.

“We joke about it at times, because we were going to do it for the one time, but it didn't turn out that way,” said Jackie Mynott, the PCSS aboriginal education youth worker.

“It is a very important part of our Aboriginal culture, so it is very important to us and others to keep this part going.”

About two dozen Adam Robertson Elementary School (ARES) students are working on their regalia, which, depending on their grade, consists of shawls, yokes and chokers for the girls, and shirts and drops for the boys. Fewer are working on regalia at the smaller Erickson (EES) and CanyonLister (CLES) elementary schools, but the action is no less frenzied, as students sew, cut and iron pieces of their projects.

SMALL FRY — About 1,500 10-month-old white sturgeon were released into the Kootenay River on May 6 during an annual event

hosted by the Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (a partnership between the province of B.C., BC Hydro, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada). The release has been going on since 1999, with a goal of helping to repopulate the endangered species. More photos at www.crestonvalleyadvance.ca/ourtown.

Joseph Boutilier is delivering a big message from the smallest vehicle he could find as he travels from Victoria to Ottawa. He rolled into Creston May 5 on his unicycle to promote the need for action on climate change.

“The need for drastic action to address climate change is beyond urgent,” he says.

“The crisis is clear.

Without substantial efforts to curb carbon emissions, the average surface temperature is likely to rise by more than four degrees [Celsius] within the century, triggering far more colossal, fatal and frequent hurricanes, heat waves, ice storms, floods, famines and typhoons than those that have already rocked the world with unprecedented violence in the past two decades.”

This sponsored event showcases local and regional wineries, great food and a variety of art to peruse.

This year, Wine Art includes the live and silent auction of art “heads” instead of just an art show.

Sixteen artists have created some fabulously cool heads that should have everyone in town buying tickets so they can get first dibs on them. The heads encompass a large range of artists and styles from ceramics to mixed media, and so much in between.

Imaginations have definitely run wild!

The head show had its first appearance during Arts and Culture Week at the Ingham Arts and Culture Centre, and it is now on display at different venues around town.

Paintings by Carol Schloss and Eileen Hirota will also be on display as an added feast for the eyes.

Tickets are $45, available from Black Bear Books, Kingfisher Used Books, Ron Toyota or and Creston Valley Rotary Club member.

That editor, he said, questioned Rose on the use of lengthy quotes from The TellTale Heart, but research revealed the work is now in public domain, so legal issues aren’t a concern.

Born in Missouri, Rose studied English at the University of South Carolina before doing a stint in the U.S. army. He then returned to his post-secondary studies, earning a degree in science and education. He became a high school teacher and spent years teaching in the Seattle area. Later, he emigrated to Canada and spent eight years teaching in the central-north area of B.C. In his fiction, he draws from personal experiences and familiar geography, inventing as he goes along.

“Believability. That was my biggest burden in writing both books,” he laughed. “For example, I have never seen a ghost, which kind of inhibited me.”

But he knows people who claim to have seen ghosts, and drew from their experiences.

Similarly, Rose has panned for gold, just as his protagonist in Uncommon Gold does.

“But I never found a motherlode, though!”

In Uncommon Gold, Rose has produced an entertaining and literate tale that will appeal to teens and adults. Much like Flame and Feather, which is still

Lee Rose can tell a story.

Known throughout the Creston Valley for his poetry readings, the retired high school teacher has published his second novel, Uncommon Gold.

In Uncommon Gold, Rose (he writes as Richard L. Rose), 81, relates a tale of a high school drama student who suffers an identity crisis after performing Edgar Allen Poe’s The Tell-Tale Heart at a provincial competition. Afterward, he sets out on a camping trip to Grim Creek Canyon, where he discovers gold and a ghost. As the story unfolds, Martin Schaffer learns much about himself and finds a girlfriend, too.

“When I was teaching in Houston (B.C.) there was a topnotch drama student who came back from a drama competition in Vancouver — just like in the book,” Rose said on Monday.

“He said to me, ‘Mr. Rose, I’m scared that I might not be who I thought was.’

“I gave him some reassurance.”

The young man grew into a well-adjusted adult.

“He turned out OK,” Rose said.

But the story left an impression. Before he retired from teaching he started writing a novel based on the story, but eventually set it aside. When he and his wife retired to Yahk, Rose became immersed in community activities and writing poetry. After publishing his first novel, Flame and Feather, in 2010, which sold well locally,

From page 1 “This facility and its operations represent the commitment by our taxpayers to have a first-class long-term facility for all ages throughout our valley,” said John Kettle, RDCK chair and Area B director. “This recreation and fitness complex is second to none in the Kootenays and I want to congratulate our staff and operations folks for their efforts resulting in this award.”

That sentiment was echoed by Larry Binks, Area C director and Creston Valley Services Committee chair.

“The success of the recreation centre is largely due to staff,” he said.

“Patrons enter and are immediately welcomed by a friendly face.”

Binks pointed out that the complex has also become an attractive venue for events such as the recent Association of Kootenay-Boundary Local Governments conference, the upcoming Cattlemen’s Association of BC meeting and numerous hockey tournaments.

ern equivalent of a common feature of libraries of the not so distant past — the card catalogue. The card catalogue didn’t contain much information, but it directed you to where you could find it.

In its finding, the court ruled that people could request removal of data related to them that seems to be “inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant, or excessive in relation to the purposes for which they were processed.”

So far, so good. But the court also acknowledged that search engines are “searching automatically, constantly and systematically for information” that they collect, organize and disclose to Internet users.

That is an important consideration, because the court also turned down the lawsuit’s request to have the original newspaper report that turns up in the Google search expunged. Why? Because the information was correct when it was printed.

And of course the court had to rule in that way, because that part of the request is tantamount to asking for permission to change history. It is something we all might like to do at one time or another, but it’s mostly silly to even think of as being possible.

So this court has said that the producer of the modern card catalogue must now remove cards at the request of any of the six billion or so makers of personal history on the planet. Good luck with that.

Farmers need help, not Bill 24 To the Editor: (Open letter to B.C. Premier Christy Clark) Yes, farmers need help. B.C. farmers are struggling to earn enough income from selling their products and they are burning out. That old joke that says, “Did you hear about poor Tom? His father died and left him the farm,” is never more true.

So, on that note, I commend the B.C. provincial government for wanting to step in under the umbrella of due diligence and lend a hand. But Bill 24?

This isn’t it.

Provincial taxpayers have for years subsidized our farmers by picking up the tab for farmers who bought land in the Agricultural Land Reserve at a reduced cost, paid fewer taxes due to residential and commercial taxpayers making up the difference, and earning income in whole or in part on land where that was permitted.

While 90 per cent of applications for withdrawal from Agricultural Land Reserve were made by developers seeking to create residential developments for supposed homebuyers who were now going to get their food from a reduced arena, the Agricultural Land Commission in many cases denied applications knowing their mandate was steadfast.

Now we have a proposal through Bill 24 to increase bureaucracy with panels, which, according to the act, have “all the powers, duties and functions of the commission in relation to an application or other matter referred to it, and a decision of a panel is for all purposes a decision of the commission.”

Now we have a proposal through Bill 24 to provide supposed opportunities to farmers to augment their farm-

OPINION LINE

ing income with other business ventures that may or may not be agricultural, thus sidestepping the original intent of the ALR. As a taxpayer, I have reviewed the Water Sustainability Act and I took part in its upgraded inception through the many opportunities offered to me. As a member of the advisory planning commission for my area, I engaged in detailed scrutiny of my area’s official community plan and helped to enact changes at the grass roots level that would make our local planning more effective. My time, as well as my tax dollars, participated in these processes.

So, my question is as follows: Why is the Minister of Energy and Mines, through a core review that has not sought adequate input from the general public or from farmers themselves, being allowed, through the introduction of Bill 24, to redesign the structure of the ALC and the ALR? My suspicion is that it is to deny independence to this body and to degrade its effectiveness.

My suspicion is that it is to provide avenues of approach for resource extraction on farmland.

My suspicion is that it is not to enhance farmers’ efficacy or income, but to make Tom glad he inherited the farm by chopping up farmland in an unprecedented opportunity to make fast profit and the aforementioned subsidizing taxpayers can now pay more for their food because it will be grown on less farmland and on land that will cost so much more, which only large conglomerates will be able to afford farming.

We are slowly killing off our farmers. They need more help, not annihilation.

Let’s interface with all taxpayers as was done for the review of the Water Sustainability Act and find the best ways to help them to be farmers, but successful and profitable farmers.

Then, and only then, if it is apparent that some or none of the ideas in Bill 24 are good ones, we can all move forward as members of one zone with a

I do not agree with him on his solution to ship bitumen from Alberta’s oilsands to Kitimat by pipeline, refine it to gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, and ship it by tanker fleets to Asia. While a tanker oil spill would be an environmental disaster, as we know from the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska in 1989, a pipeline rupture spilling bitumen into our lakes, rivers or forests would no less be the cause of environmental destruction.

Enbridge, the company proposing the Northern Gateway pipeline, does not have a good record in pipeline safety.

I have spent most of my working life in all phases of welded steel pipe production, quality control, material selection and investigation of pipeline blow-ups. I do believe that even with all the latest scientific and technical advances, accidents will happen.

The real solution is to shut down the oilsands, and no pipeline and tanker traffic will be needed. Yes, Mr. Black, the greatest threat to B.C. and to all life on our precious planet is the climate change that is now upon us. The development of the oilsands is only one of the many very large contributing factors to this human-created climate disaster.

The Voice of

Experience Mary Underhill require supplementation. The frequently heard comment, “You don’t need supplements, you get all you need from food,” is all well and good, but as I see it, less food means less nutrition.

Eating healthy foods may not be enough. Often, drugs are included in the overall management of our health, and drugs can affect appetite and the way we use nutrients in the food we eat. It’s a choice that the individual needs to make.

Drugs are often taken for pain, but may cause some nasty side effects. Take a look at the alternatives in natural heal-

ing — herbal tinctures can at times be just as effective. We have two excellent health food stores in Creston, as well as Tilia Botanicals, which will soon be open for business. Sometimes, milder drugs can be used together with more natural options. Your choice! But check with both the pharmacist and the natural healing practitioner to make sure of compatability.

We tend to “slow down” and quit exercising. Gardening becomes too big a chore, and it’s much easier to sit down with a good book or watch TV. Leg exercises can be done by sitting down, as can those for the neck and arms. Easy yoga, Tai Chi aimed at seniors (try the program at the Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors) or any other type of exercise will help keep the body muscles in better tone so they don’t hurt so much!

One of the less pleasant effects of aging is bladder leakage. Embarrassed?

Well, look around and see other people with grey hair and consider that many of them are in the same boat. So we have to resort to some pads. So what! Check out the pharmacies and grocery stores — you may be amazed at the selection. And the number of others who are buying light or heavy protection. (I speak from personal experience.)

Memory. There are days when we are not sure where it went! Again, know that the rest of us “elderly” people have trouble with recalling what is in our memory banks. Embarrassment, frustration or anger don’t help one little bit.

In fact, those negative reactions to forgetting just make the situation worse.

Try to accept the fact that it really doesn't matter if we have to take more time for recall. And if the memory still doesn't surface, oh well! We can choose to get upset or simply accept it.

Negative attitudes always lead to unhappiness with ourselves and with others. Positivity is truly the answer, even when we don’t really feel like being positive. I’ve often been told that I don’t look 81 years old or that I don’t dress for my age or that I don’t act like an 81-year-old. Why must I look or act older than I feel? I wear the clothes that are comfortable for me. I am fortunate to have inherited genes that make me look younger than my years. And everyone knows I have attitude.

That’s what it all comes down to: choices and attitude. Accept what is happening, and keep living to the very end. Let’s not be sissies!

Choices and attitude affect aging “Old age is not for sissies,” said Art Linkletter, and I agree! However, I also agree with him that we have choices — lots of them!

For instance, one of the major issues that we face is nutrition. We don’t eat as much as we used to, so we may

Life is just a bowl of cherries at Cherrybrook

F

resh cherries, fresh cherry juice, dried cherries, chocolate covered cherries — based simply on the name, it’s no surprise that those are available at Cherrybrook Farms. But the Erickson fruit stand and Story and shop they opened in 2011 offers much more, photo by with other fresh fruit (in Brian of course), saltLawrence season, water taffy, Dutch imports and looseleaf tea available.

But it all started out with only cherries, when Gordon and Caroline Martin moved to Erickson Road from the Coast in 1996.

“We bought bare land and planted cherry trees,” said Caroline.

They eventually added apples, pears, peaches and plums in their farm’s original location. That was where they came up with one of the most unique aspects of their farm, cherry tree memberships.

The program has been running since 2007, with people able to have their own cherry tree, one that is looked after by Cherrybrook Farms — the members just have to show up for the harvest.

And it’s proven to be a hit with customers. One girl, whose grandmother buys her a membership for her birthday each year, is always excited to pick her cherries and share them with her friends.

“She says it’s the best present she’s ever had,” said Caroline.

And for Gordon, nothing is better than seeing families with children harvesting their tree, and “watching kids with juice all over their face and clothes, and they don’t even care.”

The cherry tree memberships weren’t the only unique offering at their previous location. Gordon and Caroline also began offering hydroponically-grown lettuce. The butter lettuce was used by three restaurants, including A Break in Time Caffé, and sold at Overwaitea Foods, as well as at the farm and the Creston Valley Farmers’ Market.

Caroline and Gordon Martin at Cherrybrook Farms, located at 2931 Highway 3 in Erickson.

It was around that time that they started to realize traffic on Erickson Road wasn’t enough to maintain their sales.

“We were selling more at the farmers’ market than our own place,” said Gordon.

That led them to buy the former Chocolate Orchard at 2931 Highway 3 in Erickson, dropping the lettuce, but keeping the cherries and membership program, now offering more easily accessible trees and washrooms. The previous location stayed in the family, though, and is now being worked by their son, Peter.

“I’ve always wanted that,” said Gordon.

Farming is, after all, in his blood. He started farming as child in Brandon, Man., and that part of his past stuck with him — the family farm was called Brookwood, and that name combined with their biggest crop became Cherrybrook.

The new location allowed them to expand beyond fruit, and the shop now offers Creston Valley Jam Company jam — made by Caroline and Tammy Hardwick — and 50 flavours of saltwater taffy.

“People come in and say, ‘We need a bag for the road,’ ” said Gordon.

As well as a few dozen varieties of looseleaf teas, the store is the only Dutch import shop in the Kootenays, with customers often saying they turned around after driving by and seeing the Touch of Dutch sign.

“I wanted the candies my mom and dad had in the car all the time,” said Caroline. “Now it’s grown to 50 different kinds of licorice.”

That part of the shop is a reflection of her Dutch heritage, and her father’s favourite hobby, model railroading, is part of the farm, too. A railroad he created is housed in a building made just for it out back, and visitors can easily spot a larger-scale railroad running alongside the back deck, a perfect entertainment while sipping coffee or tea.

While they now grow apples, peaches, raspberries and strawberries, cherries are still the main focus. When fresh cherries aren’t available, customers can buy them dried or pitted and frozen, or as preservative-free, unpasteurized frozen juice.

“It tastes like eating a cherry,” Caroline said.

Aside from the flavour, the juice also has

health benefits — “Because of their dark pigment, they are one of the superfruits,” she said — although customers will often ask specifically about tart cherry juice.

“People think that only tart juice has health benefits,” said Caroline.

That misconception, she said, comes from the fact that studies have been done on tart cherries simply because nobody used them for anything else.

The dried cherries are also very popular, with people sending packages all over the world, a great treat for the recipients, who are getting more than it seems — it takes up to 10 pounds of fresh cherries to make one pound dried.

It takes a lot of work to keep up with the demand, but with years of farming in his veins, Gordon is happy to look after that side of things while Caroline keeps busy in the store.

“I like watching the fruit and things go through the stages and appreciate when it gets harvested,” he said.

And, of course, he gets to drive the tractor.

“I put on my headphones and go into my own little world,” he said.

MS Society raises flag at town hall

Thursday, May 15, 2014 Creston Valley Advance

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS SOCIETY OF CANADA

Thousands of Canadians navigate their daily lives with multiple sclerosis, a disease that can cause vision impairment, loss of balance, extreme fatigue and paralysis. This month, people with MS and the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada are launching Action on MS, a campaign calling for systemic changes in support of those living with MS. “Every day, MS impacts the lives of loved ones and members of the community, in addition to Canadians who have MS themselves,” said Debbie Irwin, community services co-ordinator for the MS society. “The Action on MS campaign gives Canadians the opportunity to call on federal and provincial governments to improve supports for caregivers through the development of a national caregiver action plan.”

The MS society is seeing the physical, emotional and financial impact on caregivers and family members of people living with disabilities and chronic illnesses, including people living with MS. “Supports for caregivers are few and far between,” said Ken Chubb of the Creston MS self-help group. “Many caregivers suffer burnout.”

The Town of Creston has proclaimed May as MS Awareness Month, and

raised the flag on May 6. Creston residents are invited to take part in the provincewide and nationwide efforts to end MS by: •sending a message to members of Parliament calling for systemic changes in support of caregivers by going to www. actiononms.ca or www.1dayinmay.ca; •contacting the local MS self-help

group to find out how to get involved in the community; and •seeking out information to develop a better understanding of the issues affecting people with MS and their families.

MS is a chronic, often disabling, disease of the brain and spinal cord. It is the most common neurological disease of young adults in Canada, affecting an estimated

100,000 people. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 15 and 40, and the unpredictable effects of MS last for the rest of their lives. The MS society provides services to people with MS and their families and funds to find the cause and cure for this disease. Visit mssociety.ca or call 1-800-268-7582 to make a donation or for more information.

From packing sheds to flower beds, Blossom Festival offers fun for all

Crowds gathered along Canyon Street for the 2013 Blossom Festival parade.

Creston’s largest funfest of the year will be happening for the 73rd time when the Creston Valley Blossom Festival runs May 16-19.

It kicks off with the grand opening ceremonies, the announcement of this year’s citizen of the year, and the Blossom Festival Talent Showcase, which will feature the five performers chosen by a selection committee, and one of those taking part will receive $500 based on a vote by audience members. If that isn’t enough, an all-star band, the Carltones, headed by Carl Erickson and featuring trumpeter Don Clark and assorted friends, all of whom are musicians with a Creston connection.

May 16 is the date of the show, and tickets ($15 for adults, $5 for children 12 and under) are on sale now at Black Bear Books and the Creston Valley Chamber of Commerce.

The busiest day of the festival always is Saturday. The day begins with the Creston Lions Club signature breakfast at Sunset Seed Co., where $5 gets you two fried eggs, two sausages, two pancakes and coffee or juice. Meanwhile, a small army of volunteers gets up early to map out and organize the floats, bands, clowns, church groups, classic cars, antique cars and farm equipment that comes together just before 11 a.m. for the mammoth parade that begins in front of the Creston Valley Motel and heads down Canyon Street to the Overwaitea Foods parking lot. This being an election year, look for parade appearances by a wide variety of politicians all vying for your vote this fall.

The long running Lions Street Fair will be underway on 11th

Avenue just north of Canyon Street in the Spirit of Creston Square from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. The Lions have partnered with the Thearapeutic Activation Program for Seniors the last two years so that the net proceeds stay working in Creston. If you are a Lego lover, drop down to the chamber of commerce as the Lego challenge goes from 9 a.m.5 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The winners will honoured Monday afternoon in Centennial Park.

The Creston Valley Farmers’ Market on Cook Street will be in full swing on Saturday from 9 a.m.-1 p,m. behind the chamber of commerce.

One thing the Blossom Festival doesn’t do is forget our younger citizens, you know, the ones who represent our future. From noon-4 p.m., the parking lot of the College of the Rockies will the site of the Kidapalooza by Success By Six, featuring a variety of children’s fun games, including bouncy tents and face painting.

The older youth aren’t being overlooked either. Last year, they put on a very successful dance in Millennium Park so their hardworking committee of volunteers is looking to grow the event this year. Once again, popular DJ Robin will be spinning the music.

At noon in the parking lot behind the Millennium Park stage, they are staging a carnival featuring a most unusual beer garden — this is a root beer garden, in case anyone gets the wrong impression.

The Blossom Festival weekend is also special for the Lower Kootenay Band, which will be holding the 24th annual Yaqan Nukiy Powwow all weekend.

Times are posted elsewhere in this section.

If you still have an appetite, and you should, on Sunday

head over to the Holy Cross Catholic Church hall for the Knights of Columbus western breakfast, which runs from 8 a.m.-noon. Scrambled eggs, Texas toast, hash browns and much more are available.

The action shifts to Canyon Street on Sunday for the classic car show. Again, car buffs will be looking for that shiny red Mustang convertible, that sleek green Chrysler Viper or the Corvette or vintage MG. There will also be a sizeable collection of vintage vehicles, from convertibles to sedans and coupes.

No car show would be complete without some antique cars that have been restored.

A cherry pie-baking contest will be held in the Spirit of Creston Square. The Lions Club, meanwhile, will have its food wagon selling fresh hot chili and chilidogs. Also on Sunday is the 100-kilometre yard sale and swap meet, which could become an annual event if it catches on.

Sunday night is the all faiths church service taking place in the Prince Charles Theatre at 7 p.m.

Monday is the day of the children’s parade. They muster behind CIBC at 10:30 a.m. At 11 a.m., led by the Creston RCMP, the parade heads down Canyon to the Royal Bank where it disperses. The fun isn’t finished as the Lions food wagon will be in Centennial Park and a variety of hot items will be available for sale. Each kid in the parade gets a ticket for one free hotdog. Games are planned, so it should be a fun afternoon.

Also on Monday, the action shifts to the Creston Valley Airport with a chance to see the airport or enjoy some great food while you check out the planes.

Yes, from packing sheds to flower beds the 2014 Blossom Festival is certainly worth a look!

The Carltones, featuring Carl Erickson and Donny Clark are the featured performers at this year’s Creston Valley Blossom Festival opening ceremonies.

If you ask Carl Erickson how he became a lifelong musician he’ll tell you a story.

“My brother took me to see Ray Charles about age 12 and I have never been the same since,” he says. “My sister, Karen, and myself had a rock and roll band in high school we called the Royals, and before I knew what was what I was playing saxophone in a band called the Nocturnals.”

The Nocturnals recorded over 20 singles and are featured on the Live at the Grooveyard album, which has become a collector’s item. That album musically showcases all the R&B groups of that Vancouver-era who were booked by Jaguar Enterprises.

Also the Nocturnals, pictured in gold jackets, appear on the cover of The History of Vancouver Rock and Roll.

“We were a show group, with our costume changes and dance steps — which after all these years I can say without reservation I hated, as beyond any talent I may have, I have never been much of a dancer, to say the least,” Erickson says.

There were quite a few years where Erickson did a lot of studio session recordings — of which there are many great memories.

“There are also good memories of touring with groups like the Buck Owens Revue, which I left in Pheonix, Ariz., somewhere around 1976, to Spade Nielson and the Gamblers, touring across Canada and the U.S.A. all the way to southeast Asia, and countless groups like the Elvis, Elvis, Elvis.”

Erickson spent about eight years in Calgary, part of which were spent playing saxophone with Ronnie King who had taken a leave of absence from the Stampeders of Sweet City Woman fame.

“I then returned to Vancouver and reunited with my old, late friend Muddy Fraser, a blues legend,” he says. “We recorded two albums, one in late 1980 and one about 1990. Throughout the ’90s, well, more unpaid recording sessions, but still most were great fun.”

Joining Erickson in the Carltones is Don Clark.

Don Clark has enjoyed a long career as one of Canada’s leading trumpet and flugelhorn players. As a player, arranger and composer on the West Coast since the early 1960s, he has been leader of the Donnie Clark Quartet, Donnie Clark Quintet and the Don Clark

Blossom Festival offering annual free concert in the park

Millennium Park is the place to be on May 17. The Creston Valley Blossom Festival is again staging a free concert featuring five of the area’s top musical acts. The show runs from 1-4 p.m.

Opening the show is Jackson Peters, a multitalented folk singer whose voice will astound you. She lives on Packing Shed Road, which fits nicely into this year’s Blossom Festival theme. If you have never heard her before you are in for quite a pleasant surprise; if you have heard her, you will enjoy her again as she never fails to amaze. This is her second appearance at the concert in the park.

What happens when you take a fan of western music out of Ontario and send him west? You get Bill “Slim” Young who entertained all over that province before arriving in Creston with his guitar and cowboy hat. If you like the old time country tunes, Slim won’t let you down. Slim made his Blossom Fest debut last year and is being welcomed back.

Colin Bunt, the man with the golden voice, has put together a three-piece group, including Bunt on vocals and guitar. Fiddler Zavalina Huscroft brings the energy to the group with drummer Gordon Baukham keeping everyone in sync and on time. Bunt has worked in the business for many decades and at one time toured with Buddy Knox and the Rhythm

Orchids. Bunt has made several CD.s and he will have some for sale following the concert. His style of music is called western swing, along the lines of the old Bob Willis band or today’s Asleep at the Wheel. This is their first appearance at the concert in the park.

Rhonda Barter is no stranger to the stages in the Creston area, appearing at the Wynndel Coffee House and performing in the Blossom Festival concert in the park since it began three years ago. She sings, plays fiddle and the piano. Musically, she is connected to her Cape Breton routes.

She won’t disappoint.

One of the Creston Valley’s most popular groups has the unusual name of Peanut Butter and Jam. The band covers a wide range of music from Celtic, folk, pop and country.

The group features the vocals of leader Bob Gollan, Julie Groot and Shirley Cameron. The newest member of the band is veteran guitar player and vocalist Ted Bryant, who used to play with the Kings of Kitchener. The group has a dynamic stage presence which explains their huge following.

Whether at legion halls or coffee houses like Wynndel, this group goes the distance to please its listeners.

This will be their third appearance at the Blossom Festival free concert in the park.

Bring your lawn chairs, a blanket or both and sit back and enjoy the sound of music in the park for three hours. A schedule of showtimes appears elsewhere in this issue.

Students from Canyon-Lister, Erickson and Adam Robertson elementary schools will be taking part in the fourth annual youth powwow tomorrow at the Creston and District Community Complex.

Thursday, May 15, 2014 Creston Valley Advance

Powwow

From page 1 For most, the project started in October, and youth workers have the help of Lower Kootenay Band members and other visitors to help students understand the significance as they decorate regalia using images, shapes and colours that say something about them.

“If you’re going to dance, you’re not just putting on regalia and dancing,” said ARES youth worker Josie Fullarton, who is assisted by Grade 4 teacher Allaina Allard. “Every piece means something.”

The public is welcome to see Creston, Crawford Bay, Kaslo and Castlegar students dancing in their regalia during the May 16 event — which runs 9:30-11:30 a.m. and 12:30-2:30 p.m.

— hosted by MC Ruben Little Head, and featuring hoop dancer Sandra Lamouche and the Northern Cree Singers.

The powwow is probably the most visible component, but is only part of the schools’ Aboriginal program, which offers self-identified First Nations, Métis and Inuit students education in their language, history and culture.

The Lower Kootenay Band worked with the school district to get it started, and the program has been in Creston and other SD8 schools for 19 years, guided by the goals of the Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement: to enhance the students’ sense of belonging and self-esteem, increase their chances for academic success, and provide positive lifestyle choices.

That involves more than just a chance for the students to take part in activities — concepts are also important. For example, Erickson Elementary School youth worker Janet Zarchukoff’s son-in-law is of Cree and Ktunaxa descent, and when he came in to demonstrate his beadwork, he talked about setting goals.

“We have positive role models come in and share,” said Zarchukoff.

Those Aboriginal role models have been particularly helpful during Project of Heart, offered to students in Grades 2-5, as they discussed the loss of culture and the residential school system in an age-appropriate manner.

“This was a hugely impactful program,” said CLES youth worker Laurel Ewashen. “If they make the emotional connection now, it will be there when they learn about the full reality of the situation.”

For younger students, the program helped teach about healthy lifestyle choices and diabetes prevention, and Grade 7 students discussed the social justice circle, and debated healing versus punitive action.

“The children are so quick to make the connection,” Ewashen said. “You don’t have to teach them to.”

The program allows non-Aboriginal students the chance to learn about their schoolmates’ culture, too; a Métis woman from Cranbrook taught music and dancing to EES students, which they then performed in Focus on Youth.

“The Aboriginal kids in that class are learning, but it’s normalizing it for the rest of the class,” Zarchukoff said.

At PCSS, Mynott expands on the elementary program, starting in the spring when Grade 7 students come for orientation.

“One of the most important aspects of the program is for our students to have a sense of belonging [and] also to feel comfortable being at the high school,” she said.

To that end, the schools have Aboriginal rooms, where students of all backgrounds enjoy spending time.

“Occasionally students will come from other classes to work quietly on their assignments or write tests,” said Mynott. “The room is open all the time, and we welcome everyone into our room.”

The room at EES has a microwave and minifridge, and one Aboriginal student regularly brings in a couple of friends to eat lunch with, an important key to their behavioural, emotional and social well-being, said Zarchukoff.

The four Creston Valley youth workers maintain close ties, meeting together weekly to make decisions and discuss issues with the program.

Their united front helps Aboriginal students maintain their cultural identity while educating others at the same time.

“There are stereotyped thoughts of what Aboriginal people are like,” Fullarton said. “What we do is challenge those thoughts and feelings.”

TAPS helps seniors stay independent

Child support clawback must end

Every child deserves the very best we can offer. In a province as wealthy as British Columbia, we can do so much more for our kids than 10 years of the highest child poverty in the country. Much needs

In Your Corner Michelle Mungall to be done, but one thing government could do right now is end the clawback of child support from children whose parents receive income assistance.

The Supreme Court of Canada is clear that child support is the right of the child. Children are entitled to a decent standard of living and to have their needs met. This is the purpose of child support payments from one parent to another. At no point should child support ever be interpreted as a revenue stream for government. And yet that is exactly what the BC Liberals have been doing for more than a decade.

Since 2002, the Liberals have been clawing back child support payments dollar for dollar every month from children whose parents receive income assistance. Many of

these parents are single moms with disabilities.

Single mothers like Rachel Goodine are raising their children on roughly $1,000 per month. That $1,000 is supposed to pay for rent, clothes, food and utilities. But it doesn’t.

Rachel, like other moms in her shoes, struggles to feed her daughter.

Rachel’s little girl and so many others like her make up the 30 per cent of B.C. food bank clients who are children.

Several single mothers whose children are impacted by the child support clawback recently came to the legislature. They shared their stories, and urged Premier Christy Clark to do the right thing and stop taking money from their children.

You can imagine how disappointing it was for the mothers and their children to be dismissed by Clark when she refused to answer their call to end the clawback.

While the BC Liberals found $17 million to spend on partisan preelection advertising last year, somehow Premier Clark and Social Development Minister Don McRae say they can’t afford to stop taking $17 million out of the hands of B.C.’s poorest kids.

It’s wrong, and it has to stop. No

one wants to see children’s support payments go to the Liberal government’s self-promoting advertising.

British Columbians don’t want to see our children go hungry or wear shoes that are too small and worn out. People want to see kids keep their child support to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy school lunches and a warm winter coat.

Far from putting these families first, Premier Clark is shutting the door of opportunity to children simply because their parents receive income supports. In the legislature, I have been asking her to stop this practice, and you can watch those questions at my YouTube channel.

The government needs to end the clawback immediately. The benefits now and into the future most certainly exceed $17 million. But just as importantly, it is the right thing to do.

Be someone who stands up for B.C.’s poorest kids. Tell the premier and minster of social development that you want the child support clawback ended immediately. Write to them at premier@gov.bc.ca and SDSI.minister@gov.bc.ca or tweet them at @ChristyClarkBC and @ DonMcRaeMLA. Together, we can build a better B.C. Michelle Mungall is the member of the legislative assembly for the NelsonCreston provincial riding, and is the Opposition critic for social development.

“Youth is a gift of nature; age is a work of art.”

—Stanislaw Jerzy Lec (1906-1966) Polish writer, poet and satirist

“I feel like I’m part of a family here.”

We all know for ourselves that a satisfying life includes many experiences, as well as meeting basic needs. One reality in our older years is that not everyone has family nearby, and what used to be natural gatherings or regular interactions of diverse ages are non-existent or infrequently a part of many older seniors’ lives.

Tips from TAPS Maureen Cameron

This understanding is key to the kind of program that the Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors (TAPS) is, as we address those basic needs of seniors who want or need some support to maintain their independence and contribute to the community.

Users and staff deserve credit for community complex award

Well look at that: We received another award! And when I say “we”, I mean the collective we, which includes all of you in the Creston Valley, as well. This was the 2014 BC Recreation and Parks Association Facility Excellence Award and, of course, it refers to the Creston and District Community Complex, which many of you have visited, watched or participated in something at these past few years.

First off, I want to say when you examine the roster of award

The only exceptions are the half-dozen steps down into the lap pool and the three or four steps up and into the hot tub.

Pretty amazing for starting with a 1970s-era building — I can hardly wait until I retire so I can shuffle around here in my open back bedroom slippers.

We also described the unique and innovative designs in the building, along with environmental and resource management systems (demonstrated by the FortisBC Kootenay Conservation Excellence Award we received in 2012), which were selected based on a payback schedule and future savings.

OK. We have the place built. Now what?

Winston Churchill said, “We shape our buildings; thereafter, they shape us.” Very true, and for me, this splits into two at this point: you and us.

The “you” is our Creston Valley community so we talked about public acceptance and usage, and I could fill a page of this newspaper with all the events and user groups and increased numbers through the doors. You made answering that question easy; we just had to look a schedules and bookings for the past three or four years.

“Us” is the group of dedicated people that govern and staff the place, from the Area Directors that have to make sometimes tough decisions through to the staff that manage, program and clean the facility, right to the instructor providing a one-on-one lesson to you. Funny thing is, us is also you, all part of this great comGas Chain Saw Handheld Handh d eld l Gas Blowe Blower w r munity we call the Creston Valley, and all of us get a little slice of this award.
