C K G I B 22 ANNUAL !

By Stephanie Morin-Davis The month of May is a particularly beautiful time of year in Salmon Arm. The trees are fully dressed in their spring foliage, the water sparkles from the nowwarm sun, and the air is full of birds. The venue for Word On The Lake, the Prestige Harbourfront Resort and Convention Centre, overlooks Shuswap Lake. Presenters and participants will enjoy a comfortable environment indoors, and a stunning outdoor experience with the bird sanctuary and walks along the pier. It is the perfect setting to relax and meditate on the sessions attended, or perhaps be inspired.

NOW OPEN

I would like to introduce two more Canadian forces in the literary world.

Anthony Dalton is a writer, adventurer, and photographer; a man who thrives on high adventure. He has trekked through the

sands of the Sahara and the deserts of the Middle East, lived to tell his tales of being shipwrecked in the Arctic Circle. He has ventured into the jungles of Bangladesh, and wandered the streets of Timbuktu. Hundreds of articles chronicling Dalton’s adventures and nautical tales have been published in magazine and newspapers in twenty different countries and in nine languages. Now, much of his time is spent travelling the world on cruise ships, where he retells his adventures as a guest speaker. Is it any wonder his presentation is entitled “Life-What an Adventure!”? He will entertain and enlighten us as to how these explorations have turned him into a writer, and how they continue to build a long and profitable career for him.

Mona Fertig is known throughout Canada as a writer, editor, publisher, artist, and literary organizer. Born in Vancouver, she now resides on Salt Spring Island where she and her husband own and run Mother Tongue Press, and a trade publishing company called Mother Tongue Publishing. As a literary organizer, Fertig opened Canada’s first literary centre – The Literary Store Front – in Vancouver, which housed the first B.C. Office of the Writer’s Union of Canada. She is also the founding member of the B.C. Federation of Writers, the Feminist Caucus-League of Canadian Poets, and the B.C.

Book Prize Committee. Fertig has published 14 books and ‘chapbooks’ (pocket-sized booklets) of poetry, and has given readings from coast to coast to coast in Canada and the United States. She will be presenting on her “Life as a Regional Publisher – Keeping the Vision.” This fascinating history of Mother Tongue Publishing will include a discussion on surviving in a digital world.

In her second presentation, “The Unheralded Artists of B.C. –The Life and Art of George Fertig,” she will engage attendees in an illustrated conversation about her father, the ‘Moon Man.’ Canadian art lovers will find this discussion fascinating.

*rESULTS vAry frOm pATIEnT TO pATIEnT.

By Ben Warnders Before, during, and after my first brain surgery in March of 2010, Lyn and I found we were on our own. No one suggested or knew of a brain tumour support group. As a caregiver, Lyn was on her own and had a hard time dealing with the unknown. I was unable to do anything for 12 weeks except sleep, walk the dog, and try to cope with the uncertainty. That was the time I/we decided to someday organize a brain tumour support group that would include both survivors and caregivers.

Two years later, the tumour regrew and had to be taken out again; this was followed by 6 weeks of radiation. Again, we dealt with the same fears and anxieties.

During the radiation period, we contacted a care group in Kelowna. We met with some awesome people who couldn’t do enough to show their support. We finally met with some great and supportive people at the NOSBIS (North Okanagan Shuswap Brain Injury Society) office in Salmon Arm. Through, and with the support of NOSBIS, we are spreading the news that there is now a Brain Tumour Support Group available to help as a group on regular meetings or one-on-one. The meetings are on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of each month from 3:30–5:00 p.m. at the NOSBIS office, which is located at 364B Ross Street NE, Salmon Arm– located off the Credit Union staff parking lot. Their phone number is 250-833-1140, or you can call Ben or Lyn at 250-804-0047, or e-mail us at warnders@hotmail.com. Howard Vangool photo.

Beans (legumes), compared to grains, supply about the same number of total calories but provide much more protein, and are less in fat content. They are also rich in phytochemicals, which are good for your health. Some of the varieties of beans include black, kidney, lima, mung, navy, pinto, and snap beans.

Beans are rich in fibre and this helps with good natural bowel movements. They have a low glycemic index which helps to prevent blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly after a meal, making these beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance, or hypoglycemia.

Besides being rich in fiber and antioxidants, they are also rich in vitamin B complex such as niacin, riboflavin, folic acid and thiamin.

They also contain important minerals like iron, copper, zinc, phosphorous, potassium, magnesium and calcium.

Moreover, according to the latest

research, intake of beans or lentils is associated with a lower risk of breast cancer. Researchers found a significantly reduced frequency of breast cancer in women who had a higher intake of the most common beans or lentils. Eating beans or lentils two or more times per week was associated with a 24% reduced risk of breast cancer.

The best way to eat beans is to prepare them at home. The easiest way is to cook them in a pressure cooker with water. They should be checked for foreign matter and washed thoroughly before cooking. The other option is to presoak the beans or lentils overnight to reduce the cooking time. Regardless of the cooking method, do not add any seasonings that are salty or acidic, such as vinegar, wine, tomatoes, or citrus fruits and their juices until after the beans have been cooked, Adding these earlier will make them tough and greatly increase the cooking time.

Kids and stress

The high level of stress in today’s world forces most adults to develop coping strategies; however, children often lack experience or insight to recognize stress and how to respond appropriately. Whether is it a heavy course load at school, peer pressures and social challenges, or simply a combination of small events causing a ‘bad day,’ kids often need help coping with stress. Here are 5 techniques to help your kids manage stress better.

Plan ahead: Today’s kids have busy schedules. Emotional stress can arise when trying to fit the always important time to relax and “just be a kid” between juggling social events, sports, homework, and household chores. Teaching your kids how to prioritize and schedule their planned events is very important so they don’t become overwhelmed. Chaos and lack of organization causes stress.

Let them vent: Your daughter or son is uptight, stressed, and being disrespectful. When you try to ask what is wrong, they become more annoyed. Rather than allowing their energy to stress you, it is far more effective to let them vent (within reason) to try and determine what is causing the problem. It may take some time (and patience), but you will be able to discover the source of trouble while at the same time teaching your child the effectiveness of a calmer, more rational approach to

stressful situations.

Time out: If it is too late for the above strategy and a meltdown is already occurring, give each of you a few minutes apart to let the adrenal dissipate! Continuing to engage at this point will rarely result in a positive outcome. Once everyone has settled, discussion of the problem can ensue in a more constructive manner.

Run it off: When you sense stress is building in your kids, get them moving! Exercise takes everyone’s mind off such situations and causes the body to release endorphins – our natural “feel-good” chemicals in the brain.

Get adjusted: On a weekly basis we have parents bringing their children in for chiropractic adjustments to simply help them cope with life’s stresses. Excess emotional stress is a very common cause of Ssubluxation (nervous system interference) in kids and adults. When you adjust the spine and release this built-up tension in the spine and nervous system, it allows one to cope more effectively with daily emotional stress.

Stress management requires lifelong focus. It is never too early to learn coping strategies and chiropractic care is an essential part of this. A healthy functioning nervous system leads to optimal health and happy, stress-free children. Call Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224.

Carlin School (4005 Myers Frontage Road, Tappen, BC, 14 km west of Salmon Arm on Hwy 1) is hosting the Third Annual Carlin Country Market, on Saturday, May 25, the weekend after the long weekend. The Carlin Country Market runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The Carlin Country Market is Carlin School’s primary fundraising activity for the year, and embraces the entire school population, families and the community. The Carlin Country Market is fun for everyone, and people attend from across the Shuswap, and as far away as Alberta and the Lower Mainland. The Carlin schoolyard is turned into an outdoor festival, with food, entertainment, market shopping, Kid’s Carnival, and so much more. The Carlin Country Market raises funds to support numerous activities at Carlin school.

Admission is by donation to the school, and all donations are appreciated - no matter how large or small. Some of the features of the Carlin Country Market include a “pay what you can” garage sale, a Tim Horton’s coffee and donut stand, Tappen Co-op ice cream, a live entertainment stage featuring local acts, a demonstration stage highlighting everything from dancing to karate - gymnastics to acting. Visitors can enjoy items from the concession stand, purchasing goods at the open air market, and securing a coveted raffle ticket for the class theme baskets. The kid’s carnival again features face painting by artist Kristy Schroeder, a shave ice stand, games, bouncy houses, and sports.

New for this year are a dunk tank, a candy stand, and an on-site cash machine. Emergency vehicle demonstrations, Jaws of Life, and a show and shine are all back by popular demand. For those with a green thumb, the ever-popular plant sale and silent auction features local business.

A day at the Carlin Country Market is fun for the whole family. Come at 10 a.m. and stay until 3 p.m.

A free shuttle is provided to get you up the hill from the parking lots. Remember to bring empty cans and bottles to drop off at the gate.

KURTIS GORDEY WINS GOLD IN AUTOBODY

An autobody student in A. L. Fortune Sec. School in Enderby won gold in Skills Canada B.C. provincial competition at TradeX in Abbotsford.

Kurtis Gordey competed against secondary students from throughout the province.

Kurtis is 16 and in grade 11. His father is owner/operator of Armstrong Collision and Kurtis works at the family business. His older brother, Chris, is an autobody technician who also works at the family collision business “Kurtis is part of the school district’s secondary school apprenticeship program as well as the ACE-IT autobody program,” said Alice Hucul, School District 83 communications.

His winning gold in the provincials qualifies him to compete in the Skills Canada National Competition June 5-8 at BC Place in Vancouver. Middle, high and post-secondary students from throughout Canada will be competing in autobody, transportation, construction, manufacturing, information and technology, service and employment.

Bring home another gold, Kurtis!

PLANTS & COMPOSTED GOAT MANURE FOR SALE

Garden club members in Enderby have been bagging goat manure that they will sell for $2.50 a bag as a fundraiser on Sat., May 4, 8 a.m. to noon at Riverside Park. Proceeds from it and plants will be used for tree-planting and community garden maintenance. For more info, call Dianne at 250-8386048.

PLEASE DO NOT KILL BATS

An article in Enderby’s RiverTalk says We Need Bats.

Bernie Moubray writes that some people have been killing bats, but it is illegal. The 16 species of bats in BC are protected by the provincial wildlife act. They do not drink blood and they avoid getting tangled

in your hair. “Using their highly successful sonar to catch night-flying insects, bats consume up to half their weight every night in mosquitoes, beetles, crickets and flies.”

No one in BC has contracted rabies from a bat, according to Agriculture Canada which tests about 100 injured, sick or dead bats annually.

To keep bats away from your house, buy or build a bat house out of old or rotten lumber. It needs to be slim and dark, with an entrance from the bottom. Google: bat house construction.

SQUILAX STORE HAS A BAT NURSERY

School children in Chase and Kamloops built bat houses after an old church at Squilax burnt to the ground, possibly as a result of electrical wiring used to power motion-sensing, bat-studying cameras. The students’ bat houses were erected at the church site and continue to be used by the flying nocturnal animals.

The old brick Squilax Store on the Trans Canada has a bat nursery at the back of the large sign on the face of the store.

The store’s owner is an expert on bats. Volunteers throughout North America count bats once a week. The Squilax site is recognized by Bat Conservation Int’l in Austin, Texas and is listed in its Vacationer’s Guide to Viewing Bats in North America. It is also listed in Off the Beaten Path British Columbia: A Guide to Unique Places.

SIGNED MY REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT

All my legal forms are filled, signed and witnessed: my living will, my power of attorney, my last will and testament, and now my representation agreement, section 9. The latter was downloaded from the government website (Thank you Google) and signed by me, son-number-one who will make decisions about personal care if I am not able, and son-number two as the alternate representative. All our signatures were witnessed on the three-page form by a couple of friends after dinner at their place. Thank you Sue and Hugh.

It was not necessary for my sons and me to be together for the signing. I could have had my signature witnessed in Salmon Arm, one son could have had the same in Victoria and the other one in another place.

ONE MORE FORM: NO DNR OR CPR FOR ME

I’ve had a good life. If I should drop dead, do not apply compressions to my chest. Do Not Resuscitate or apply CPR, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. Let me die.

I printed a one-page form from a government website (Thank you Google). My doctor signed it and witnessed my signature, and my older son signed it.

My family and many friends know I have it, and there’s a copy in my file at church. Two reduced copies are in my purse and one is in my kitchen. Now you know it.

BLUE BOTTLE IN MY FREEZER

I taped the No CPR form on a cabinet door in my kitchen.

I showed a copy of the form at a Citizens Patrol coffee meeting at Tim Hortons on the hill, and the Mountie said the first place they look when they enter the house on an emergency call is for a blue bottle in the freezer. I had to get one.

When door-knocking and handing out brochures for Greg Kyllo who is running in the provincial election, I saw a sticker outside one door that said “Blue Bottle in case of emergency. Medical information in refrigerator freezer.”

From a box at the Seniors’ Resource Centre located below Dr. Chu’s dental office I picked up a plastic package that contains a 4” high blue bottle, a sticker for outside my door, a magnetic sign for the door of my freezer, and a form to fill giving my ID, the emergency contact, my doctor, my Care Card number, the medications I’m taking, and any allergies. Thank you to Remedy’s RX Prescription Centre near McGuire Lake, Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union, and the Seniors’ Resource Centre for making this package available at no cost.

I filled the form, put it with my No CPR form, folded them tightly and put them in the blue bottle, then in my freezer. The magnetic sign tells emergency responders the bottle has information about me, and if I’m dead, to let me die.

BRING PICKUP OR TRUNKFUL TO A YARD SALE

For just $10 per stall you can spend from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. selling new or used goods from your vehicle at a huge sale on Saturday, May 4. It will be at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church which is also used by Mountain View Baptist Church. It is located across the highway from the police station and will have highway signage. Proceeds will go to maintenance of the building and parking lot.

Coffee and lunch items will be for sale. Large bags of rotted horse manure can be purchased for $3 each or four for $10. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

AUTHORIZED BY TERRY MARRIOTT, FINANCIAL AGENT. 778.489.4734

I had two potential clients in the last while suffer from window covering sticker shock. They told me they had no budget but weren’t really concerned; they wanted the best they could get. That I can help with, says I. What became clear, very quickly, was that neither client understood that window coverings are rather like tile or carpets. You get what you pay for and the price variance is staggering. The less expensive one may look like the most expensive one, but the less expensive one may not have any warranty, or guarantee. The colour may not be consistent through the product, the material used in construction may off-gas and the sun may damage an inferior product in as little as one season of sun.

And what happens if the cords break–where can you get it repaired, or can you get it repaired?

So, I did some research and here are some really ballpark averages for you. The products I priced range from online budget purchases with no warranty or guarantee up to the higher-end custom-made products with a 7 year or more guarantee and warranty.

These prices are all based on a 12-square-foot blind with similar lifting features.

Metal, 2-inch venetians: ranged from $111.00 to $200.00, average $143.00 each, or $12.00 per square foot.

Wood, 2-inch venetians: ranged from $108.00 to $600.00, average $225.00, or $19.00 per square foot.

3/4-inch black-out honeycomb cordless blinds: range from $100.00 to $600.00, average $293.00 or $24.00 per square foot.

Fabric roman blinds: based on $30.00/meter fabric: $250.00 or $21.00 per square foot.

Drapes for a patio door: double lining based on fabric of $30.00/meter: $20.00 per square foot, not including the rod.

Considering that a guideline percentage of window to wall in a home is 10 percent, a 2800 square foot home could have about 300 square feet of window. At an average for honeycomb shades of $24.00 per square foot, the total cost for the house could be $7200.00 with a range from $2400.00 to $15,000.00.

The lesson? Decide what you need. Decide how much you can spend. A real general guideline is 5% of the home value is a good starting point for custom-made coverings. Pick a budget figure. Get the best product you can afford. Tell your window-covering specialist what your budget figure is because keeping it a secret wastes your time and theirs.

By June Griswold Spring is here! The Salmon Arm Community Band has an enjoyable evening of music planned for its Spring Concert on Saturday, May 4th, 7:30 p.m. at the First United Church. Doors open at 6:30 p.m..

Conductor Cees Kooyman will perform a longtime favourite “The Typewriter;” and the percussion players make this piece sound like a real typewriter! A few classical moments and pieces by Tchaikovsky and Gustav Mahler, one from the Netherlands “Tulips from Amsterdam” and for ABBA fans there will be a selection of well-known melodies like “Dancing Queen.” Norma Jean Gomme will perform “Misty”on the trombone.

Co-director Jim Johnston will be leading the band in six pieces touching several centuries and styles. There will be songs from composer Stephen Foster, popular dance music from hundreds of years ago, music by John Phillip Sousa, a visit back to the early days of rock and roll, and a stirring march called “Anchors Aweigh.”

After the concert, guests are invited to enjoy refreshments with the band members. Admission is by donation–much appreciated to keep the band entertaining you for many more years.

Friends of the Band would love to have one or two more friends to join them. If interested, please contact June at 250-832-2355.

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, although it seems like everyone is tense, you feel free as a bird. That could be because you have worked hard to free up time to get away.

Aquarius, conversations with others may not flow smoothly, and you may have to come up with a way to reword what you’re trying to get across.

Stick with it.

Aries, don’t be pushy with authority figures because such an attitude is not in your best interest. You are better off putting on the charm and getting them to see your softer side.

LEO

Leo, you might need to make travel plans for a work trip in the coming month. Embrace the opportunity to benefit your career, but don’t forget to have a little fun when you’re away.

VIRGO

Virgo, now is not the time to talk about shared expenses or the division of labor in a relationship.

You’ll only be starting an argument, and you do not need that right now, Virgo.

LIBRA

Staying neutral is the best way to go this week, Libra. Avoid any knee-jerk reactions and practice your poker face. There are some opportunities for fun on Thursday.

The second season of Shuswap Launch-apreneur is coming to a close this Friday, April 26th at the Salmar Classic.

This program is designed to help entrepreneurs validate their business idea, complete all required planning and ultimately establish their business in the Shuswap. Throughout the two month program teams have attended a series of workshops and were partnered with a volunteer business mentor from our community. This year’s program saw 12 teams participating. Now that the program is coming to a close, 8 teams are moving forward to the final “Dragons Den” style competition night at the Salmar Classic at 6:00 p.m. on April 26th. The business ideas are diverse and impressive, and include agriculture, retail and manufacturing.

These 8 teams will pitch their business concepts to a judging panel comprised of angel investors and an audience of community members, competing for prize packages valued at over $25,000 to help them start their venture.

Last year’s event was sold out with 280 people in attendance. Tickets are $15 each and are now on sale at Salmon Arm Economic Development Society, #20 Hudson Ave NE (upstairs in the Old Courthouse Building). Call SAEDS at 250-8330608.

Princess Duma

If you follow my articles you’ll know the only reason I agreed to buy a cat last summer was if the animal would catch mice. Early on, she didn’t seem interested in living up to her end of the bargain. All she wanted to do was sneak into the house and dine on cheddar cheese that was meant for my apple pie. In fact I was starting to wonder if she was in fact a large rat in cat’s clothing trying to infiltrate my house from the inside.

Duma’s darkest moment was last fall when a vole (subsequently named Gus) actually beat her up. It was that day that my confidence in her as a productive mouser hit rock bottom (see December 7th article).

So as winter came I had begun to accept the fact my cat will be nothing but a princess; lying around, demanding that her food be brought to her in a shiny silver dish.

However, this spring Duma shocked us all. As the snow melted, Duma transformed into a vicious predator; a real “tiger in the grass.”

We began to find little mouse parts strewn around the yard. One day she was even digging in our field like a dog trying to catch a vole (probably Gus). She had finally come into her own as an expert mouser.

I was so proud and thought things couldn’t be better. Then things took a turn for the worst (see March 29th article). Duma got hit by a car and I didn’t think she was going to make it.

The accident came no sooner than a couple days after we had watched her catch three mice in one day. All

hopes of owning a killer cat were slowly slipping away.

However, she survived the ordeal and my hope of owning a rodent hunter was restored; at least until recently.

I came home the other day and noticed she had something around her neck; some sort of collar. As I looked closer I noticed that not only was she wearing a new “diamond studded” collar, but it had a small bell on it. “Seriously?!” I thought to myself. “My killer cat has some sort of princess collar with a bell!”

As the story goes, my six-year-old Nate saw it and wanted to get it for her so he can take her on walks. I was reassured that it only cost $1.99, but that didn’t exactly help ease the pain of seeing my mouse hunter in a shiny collar. Besides I just don’t see Duma being interested in going for walks on a leash.

“You do realize the bell will alert any and all rodents that she’s coming; never mind the blinding reflection of the sun on her “diamond” collar?!” I exclaimed at the supper table that night. However, I was refuted by the rest of the family with “But it looks so cute on her!”

To say the least, my cat is starting to have an identity crisis. Mean old Dad keeps sending the cat outside and telling it to hunt, while the rest of the family is dressing it up like a Barbie doll and feeding it treats.

I am not sure who is going to need more counselling; me or the cat!

‘Storage Warz’ returns

By Louise Barber Spring was welcomed to Notch Hill on the afternoon of Saturday, April 13th. Wendy Dean and the Sorrento Scottish Country Dancers, Highland Dancers from Salmon Arm and the Kamloops Dancers filled the hall with energy, fun and many new dancing steps.

A total of 60 people had lots of fun, meeting new and familiar faces and at the same time learning Scottish Country dancing.

A special thank you to Wendy Dean all the dancers and everyone who attended and participated.

Thank you also to Albert Hepworth for taking many photographs all afternoon. Thank you to all members of the fundraising event planning committee of the Notch Hill Town Hall Association.

Inspired by the hit TV show and spurred on by last year’s success, Valley First’s Armstrong branch is bringing its own version of Storage Warz back to the North Okanagan for a second year.

On Sunday, May 5, a Storage Warz charity auction event sponsored by Valley First will give people the opportunity to find their own hidden treasures. Starting at noon at Spall Storage, 1390 Pleasant Valley Road, Armstrong, ten storage lockers will be auctioned off to lucky bidders.

Local businesses have also come together to donate more than $1,500 worth of items for the auction.

“Yup! We’re bringing Storage Warz back to the North Okanagan,” says Valley First’s Armstrong branch manager, Ken Britton. “Last year’s inaugural event raised more than $10,000 in a just a few short hours. We’re delighted to be bringing this tremendous charity fundraiser back for another year.

“Putting a fun spin on our community investment activities allows us to get more people involved in helping our local area. With the support of our partners and the use of Spall Storage to hold this event, I’m sure we will capture the imagination of local treasure hunters from near and far.”

Other events during Storage Warz include a silent auction and a Feed the Valley barbecue. All proceeds will go to the Armstrong Food Bank and other local charities. Auction services have been donated by Paul Ricka of P&J Auction.

Event admission is by $2 donation or donation of a non-perishable food item.

Valley First is a division of First West Credit Union, B.C.’s third-largest credit union, which has 40 branches and 29 insurance offices throughout the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, Kitimat and Okanagan, Similkameen and Thompson valleys.

Led by Launi Skinner, First West has $7.1 billion in assets under administration, more than 171,000 members and close to 1,300 employees. For more information on Valley First, visit valleyfirst.com.

New society for oral health care

The Smile Mission Oral Health Outreach Society (SMOHOS) is a new non-profit group made up of a board of dental professionals and other interested parties.

The goal of this society is to create positive impacts in the community by providing access to oral health care.

Funds raised will go towards two main causes: first, to make up the difference between what people can afford and Fee Guide prices for dental health services in existing dental/dental hygiene clinics, to help break the cycle of dependency on traumatic dental treatment and oral surgery under sedation. Secondly, to resources, support, and community outreach opportunities for dental professionals providing portable oral health services to remote locations and populations who are currently under-utilizing dental care.

At this time, the Society is looking for an enthusiastic individual interested in helping with the administration, fundraising and charitable status application of the Society. If you would like to help out, or would like more information on this society, please call Liz-Ann Munro Lamarre, secretary, Box 39, Salmon Arm, BC V1E 4N2. Phone 250-833-9923 or email thesmilemission@gmail. com.

A friendly place

It’s a dream born of necessity.

Lisa MacDonald and Melanie Clark sit in one of the small rooms off a main playroom, that is, as yet, sparsely furnished. There’s a few toys, a couple of tables and a huge purple bean bag chair in the corner.

As Lisa looks around the room, she says she has had a request for a swing but she isn’t quite sure how to make that happen.

In this office-space turned child-friendly room, Lisa dreams of making this a one-stop shop for children with special needs and their parents.

Lisa’s son, David, showed signs of autism at 15 months. “He lost all the speech he had, he was no longer social; he wasn’t my child anymore. Life that you once had known is no longer.”

David was diagnosed as high-functioning on the autistic spectrum.

And so began her journey.

“I learned as much as I could and, through awesome support, it became a passion of mine.”

Orchard Park Terrace Sandy Ridge Construction has

constructed an energy efficient condo with 3 different floor plans, large kitchens, hardwood, ceramic tile, stainless steel appliances & blinds all included.

Lisa became a special needs assistant for autistic children and, over the years, became an advocate along the way as she met other families with similar difficulties and struggles. She dreamed of providing comprehensive services that a child of special needs requires at all stages of development.

Lisa has nothing but praise for all the professionals who have helped with David over the past decade, but she recognized that the sheer number of professionals involved in her son’s life was not conducive to his progress. Autistic children need routine and don’t handle change well.

Using her own situation as an example, she says it was “shocking” to see how many consultants and therapists David had to see by the age of five. The stress,

the expense, and frustration she saw other parents experience as they tried to help their children gave Lisa the idea of the Rafiki Family Education Centre.

“Kids being dragged here and there–and paying traveling costs for professionals to work –I just saw this as being a solution to the parents’ stress and children’s stress.”

The Rafiki Centre is a single central place where professionals and therapists can have offices and families can come for workshops, programs, social events and daytime respite.

Lisa envisions speech and language pathology services, occupational therapy and physiotherapy, musical and art therapy, and family counseling all taking place at the Rafiki Centre. The

name explains exactly what Lisa sees this centre becoming.

“Rafiki means ‘friend’ in Swahili.

When I would take David to therapists I would say, ‘We’re going to see our friend.’”

The number of special needs children and the increased number of children with autism necessitates this service, she explains.

“There are 1,055 children with special needs in the school district - that doesn’t include those under the age of five, only the public school registration.”

The incidences of autism are increasing: it used to be 1 in 150, now it is 1 in 87.

Things are starting to fall in place, and Lisa is looking forward to the day when programs

are up and running and it does become that comfortable place where special needs children and families feel at home here. Lisa has a core team in place including Melanie Clark, Dr. Richard Zigler, and Patricia Kennedy.

Lisa says it was a little scary signing the lease, but it’s the step she had to take to make this dream into the reality of helping children and their families.

“I love the kids; I know what they can do.

Families need intervention and ongoing support, not just the child.”

The Rafiki Centre is located at #205-310 Hudson Avenue N.E. For more information phone 778-489-2223 or email rafikicentre@ gmail.com.

Fishery patrols and funny moments shuswapoutdoors

A14 Friday, April 26, 2013 Lakeshore News

For anyone that works with fish or wildlife in an official capacity, including enforcement, you will know that humorous or zany things do happen at times. In the following paragraphs, I’d like to share a few with you.

The balling coho: while on a patrol a few years ago to the Eagle River salmon hatchery,(unfortunately, closed years ago), Mary-Ellen, the biologist, was bringing out large black plastic trays, from the incubation room of just hatched Coho babies. She placed them in a bucket. Nearby was a long deep cement rearing trough, with cold water gushing from a downspout. A fine wire mesh screen was placed 4 inches into the trough, with metal hooks on the sides. The coho hatchlings were gently immersed onto the screen. Suddenly, they became a large, silvery twirling ball mass! She

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

explained that they were scared, coming into daylight for the first time! It was called “balling.” Then, each gulped some air to fill their tiny swim bladders, and then off they swam.

The swimming bunny: My boss Byril and I were travelling by jet boat up to Anstey Arm, on Shuswap Lake, to count coho up Hunakwa Creek.

Beaching the boat, lo and behold, we see a rabbit swimming in circles, out in the lake just beside us! Ears laid flat, nose just above water, he was just givin’ ‘er! We herded him to shore, where he sat, exhausted.

We thought maybe a coyote or other critter was after him. After all, when you’re

up to your bum in alligators, and someone says drain the swamp, what’re ya gonna do?!

When fishery officers get together from other jurisdictions, it can get interesting.

Like the bear that chased an officer walking a creek counting salmon.

He headed for a clump of three fir trees, then darted inside. As the enraged bear roared around the tree, he’d spin around inside, hollering, till his partner came with a shotgun.

Another officer got too close to a grow operation up north, and became entangled in a foot snare from a bended tree

trap, springing him high in the air by one leg.

Exploding salmon: The Shuswap River, above Ashton Creek, takes a sharp bend in a spot called Widmark Pool. Chinook salmon were in the pool in numbers. A call came in. As I picked up the phone to answer, there was a deep roar. The lady who lived near the bank of the river on the other end of the phone, yelled, “There goes another one, come quick, they’re dynamiting the pool.”

Arriving soon after, and paddling a canoe across, I found a small piece of bloody thumb.

The bad guys had vanished in a maze of cornfield.

In the early days, quicklime in a large can or jar with small holes in the lid, with rocks for weight, was tossed into a pool. Stunned salmon, with a full air bladder would float. Others, with broken bladder, would sink and be lost on the bottom.

Some years ago, many generations of families living along the Salmon River, took migrating chinook salmon at night. Some used gaffs; others, spears, along with a light or torch of some sort.

Night patrols, would send us under bridges to remove these devices, which were usually hung on large spikes or wire. When the bars closed, the roar of vehicles could be heard as their drivers headed home from the about 12:30 a.m..

Salmon coming up a stream at night, their tails beating the gravel, make a swishing sound. Others may flop/wiggle, back into the main stream.

Many a night, we slid out through the bush and tall grass onto a bar, to put the run on a poacher.

One pitch black night, we chased three across an open field to a large house; the fourth hit a barb wire fence with a yowl. We gave the bad guys a choice: give us a consent search, or we would go for a warrant. We came to a consensus, getting a salmon and spears/pitchforks, and promised a call to the parents of the teens for the next morning!.

The swishing sound patrol, John Dugdale, was once our patrolman. It was darker than the inside of a cow, as we parked the fishery truck by the Kingfisher hatchery and began the slow stalking walk, along a narrow winding trail through thick trees to the Cooke Creek campsite/pool. We had three “snaggers,” at the riverbank, with weights and treble hooks, attempting to hook chinook salmon using heavy rods. The swishing sound comes from the whipping of fishing line through the air, backwards, the wielders trying to impale a fish. Sneaking along with a tiny light, and banging into trees, we lost our way. We both began to laugh, and couldn’t stop–it was hilarious! We got the bad guys, rods, and salmon, but have fond memories for a lifetime. I have so many more stories; remembering high speed chases, firearms, poachers, and lots more. I hope you’ve enjoyed these few.

Fishing report: Most local lakes are starting to be productive. As well, new stockings of catchables (10-12 inches) plus fingerlings, have been planted in Phillips, Skimikin, Gardom, and other lakes. An amendment to BC fishing regulations lifts the bait ban around the community wharf for children to fish with bait (like for the kids fishing derby on Father’s Day.) Another amendment: Lady King Lake @ Pinaus lake, to regular angling methods, 5 trout daily possession. White Lake anglers are doing well on trolled wet flies like beadhead leech, other flies. Wedding band/worm.

Chironomid anglers are doing well. Shuswap Lake: lots of anglers at Murdock Point, tunnels.

Bucktails on top a good bet. Cloudy days best too.

Mara: Lots of anglers last Sunday. Some rainbows coming in on trolled apex/mallard wing buck tails across river mouth. Gardom Lake is producing on power bait, trolled wet flies. Willowleaf/worm.

Google Earth is now beginning a program to show our national parks.

Be sure to plan your hunts, getting your LEH cards in the mail before May 24th deadline.

By Susan Wolff, Shuswap Music Festival Society Family and friends gathered at the First United Church, Monday, April 22nd for an entertaining evening of piano duets and quartets, part of the 13th Annual Shuswap Music Festival in Salmon Arm. The pianists, attired in colourful costumes to represent the themes of their musical selections, ranged in levels of competition from Grade 3 to 10. The “eight hands” category, in which two pianos are played simultaneously by four pianists, was a highlight of the evening.

Four young women- Ashley Fong, Elena Bruns, Allison Dunne and Rebecca McDonald, students of music teacher Jane Hein, have been entering the “Two-PianoEight Hands” category for the past five years.

The selection of the piece, many hours of practice and attention to costume detail represent some of the focus, hard work and creativity required to prepare for competition at the music festival. Shown in the photo at this year’s festival in ghoulish attire, the four performed ‘Danse Macabre’ by SaintSaens. They are the most senior of the ensemble competitors, performing at the Grade 10 level.

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, although it seems like everyone is tense, you feel free as a bird. That could be because you have worked hard to free up time to get away.

Aquarius, conversations with others may not flow smoothly, and you may have to come up with a way to reword what you’re trying to get across.

Stick with it.

Aries, don’t be pushy with authority figures because such an attitude is not in your best interest. You are better off putting on the charm and getting them to see your softer side.

LEO

Leo, you might need to make travel plans for a work trip in the coming month. Embrace the opportunity to benefit your career, but don’t forget to have a little fun when you’re away.

VIRGO

Virgo, now is not the time to talk about shared expenses or the division of labor in a relationship.

You’ll only be starting an argument, and you do not need that right now, Virgo.

LIBRA

Staying neutral is the best way to go this week, Libra. Avoid any knee-jerk reactions and practice your poker face. There are some opportunities for fun on Thursday.

James Wallace Emeny January 20, 1925 April 15, 2013 It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of our dear “Jim” Emeny on Monday April 15,2013. Jim was born in Enderby on Jan 20,1925 and lived his entire life of 88 years on the same farm that was homesteaded in 1888 by his grandfather. His heritage, the farm, his home and his family were of utmost importance in his life.

He married Alice Skyrme of Grindrod on Oct 7,1944 and they were blessed with 67 1/2 years of loving each other through good times and times of difficulty. They had three children, Wanda Jean who died as a 4 month old infant due to Cystic Fibrosis, Wanda Sharon and Robert Arthur who died of Cystic Fibrosis at age 37. In his youth, Jim played accordion and was part of several dance bands. Jim purchased the family farm from his father in 1954 and he and Alice worked hard together. They also enjoyed their leisure time together - square dancing with clubs throughout the Okanagan Valley, camping, traveling and sharing good times with the Shuswap RV club and Antique car club, and fellow church members from Enderby, Mara and Armstrong.

He is survived by his loving wife Alice, daughter Sharon Wickstrom of Armstrong, son-in-law Otto Wickstrom of Enderby, grand daughters Lana (Mike) O’Brien and Denise McKen, 4 great grandchildren, Shaughnessy, Delaney, Fraser O’Brien and Alyssa McKen all of Armstrong, brother Frank Emeny of Kamloops, and sisters Grace O’Keefe of Vernon, Jean Schubert of Kamloops, and Alice Biggar of Owen Sound.

Arrangements for a celebration of his life are with My Alternatives Services and will be held at St. Andrew’s United Church in Enderby at 1:30 pm on Monday, April 22, 2013 with Rev. Bari Castle officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Jim may be made to your favourite charity. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.MyAlternatives.ca Cremation arrangements entrusted to ALTERNATIVES FUNERAL & CREMATION SERVICES® Armstrong 250-546-7237 & Vernon 250-558-0866

Matt Ryan, a triple gold medal Olympian winner for equestrian events, visited Woodcreek Farm Equestrian earlier this week and gave some instruction to riders. Proprieter of Woodcreek Farm, Becky Perkins, had worked for Matt Ryan in England before she came to Canada to start the

small equestrian centre, and she asked him to come to Canada for a short stay. She hopes to have him back a few times in the next year or so. Top: Alix Schoenbach takes her horse over a jump. Above: Matt Ryan gives some pointers to the riders.
