Rotating school strikes to start Monday

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press The B.C. Teachers’ Federation plans to start one-day rotating strikes at schools around the province on Monday, rejecting the offer of a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement by the end of the school year.

BCTF president Jim Iker said Tuesday the bonus doesn’t make up for the government’s wage offer of 6.5% over six years. A simultaneous plan to cut teacher wages 5% or more because of strike action is “just so disrespectful, so unnecessary, and we’ll be dealing with it at the Labour Relations Board,” Iker said.

Unless there is some compromise on major issues, one-day strikes with picket lines will be staged at one group of school districts in each of the first four days next week, with teachers returning to work across the province on Friday, May 30.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender said the signing bonus and reducing the contract term from 10 years to six were significant efforts to move toward a settlement.

“Unfortunately the announcement today says that the BCTF feels that disrupting classrooms, affecting children and their families is going to help to reach a settlement,” Fassbender told reporters in Vancouver.

Iker reiterated the union’s position that more

pay, more teachers and a return to contract language guaranteeing class size and special needs support are needed to reach a settlement.

Peter Cameron, chief negotiator for the province’s 60 school districts, informed the union last week that a 5% pay cut will be put in place “soon” in response to the first phase of strike action.

The BCTF began work-to-rule action in April, refusing supervision outside classrooms and communication with school management.

Rotating strikes were also authorized by the BCTF membership in a March vote, and beginning to shut down schools could result in an effort to cut teacher pay by 10%.

Cameron said last week the union’s latest wage demand amounts to 15.9% over four years, far beyond what other provincial public service unions have received. The BCTF maintains its wage proposal is 13.25% over four years, including cost-of-living increases based on each year’s inflation rate.

For the local interior districts, the BCTF’s school district strike schedule includes: Tuesday, May 27: #19 – Revelstoke, #23 – Central Okanagan, and #83 – North OkanaganShuswap. On Wednesday, May 28: #73 Kamloops Thompson; and Thursday, May 29: #22 – Vernon.

Shuswap Search and Rescue seeks support

Shuswap Volunteer Search and Rescue Society is a volunteer-based organization that has been serving the community for over 25 years. The past year has been a busy one for call-outs and training; with an increase in outdoor activities and pursuits, they have seen an increase in situations where their services are required. They would like to take this opportunity to thank their many volunteer members for their dedication and commitment to the team; as well as the many businesses, organizations and individuals in the community that have donated time and money to the cause.

As summer looms on the horizon, members of Shuswap Volunteer Search & Rescue would like to share a few reminders to help keep you safe: • You do not have to pay to be rescued – Search and Rescue is a volunteer-run, non-profit society.

• You do not have to wait 24 hours to call Search and Rescue for help. Time is of the essence, and if you find yourself in a situation

where their help is required, or if a family member or friend is unreasonably overdue from an outdoor adventure, call 911.

With the help of provincial gaming grants and community donations, and with the dedication and perseverance of several Shuswap Volunteer Search & Rescue members, a rapid initial response vehicle and trailer has been purchased (pictured above). However, grants do not cover all of the costs incurred by this organization, and so they are selling space on the vehicle and trailer to help offset some of those expenses. If you would like to display your business name or logo on this equipment, or even just send in a donation, please contact Shuswap Volunteer Search & Rescue at www.shuswapvsar.org, phone 250833-1473, or write SVSAR, Box 241 Salmon Arm, BC, V1E 4N3.

Search and Rescue is available 24/7 – if you find yourself in a situation where you need help, call 911 immediately. Photo contributed.

Looking for the diamond winner

Howard Vangool

During the EZ Rock Have a Heart for Health Radiothon

held in early May, a real Canadian-mined diamond worth $500 was donated by Arthur’s Gemset Studio as a prize to be found in a container containing mostly cubic zirconias.

Of all the stones drawn and subsequently brought in for checking, none have been found to be the genuine diamond. Currently there are 15 stones out-

standing, and one of these is the real deal! If you have a stone you had purchased that day and have not yet brought it into Arthur’s Gemset Studio to be checked, please bring it in – you have a one in 15 chance of finding yourself with a real diamond!

Arthur’s Gemset Studio is located in the Mall at Piccadilly, and is open during mall hours.

Open Fridays AND Saturdays

The ganoderma mushroom, known as L’angzh© in China, means “herb of spiritual potency,” and has also been described as “the mushroom of immortality.” It has many health benefits and has been used in Chinese medicine for more than 2000 years. This mushroom has anti-cancer and immune-protective properties. It has been found to inhibit platelet aggregation and to lower blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar. It is also known for its anti-viral, anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory properties. It is also beneficial for the circulatory system and the respiratory tract system, helping to reduce the symptoms related to asthma, bronchitis and other lung-related problems, as well as having good calming properties.

Ganoderma mushrooms even have superoxide dismutase (SOD).

This enzyme functions as a defense line against harmful free radicals in the body. It has anti-oxidant properties and slows down the aging of cells. In China, this herb is especially recognized for its use in anti-cancer treatments.

It has polysaccharides, triterpenes, beta glucan and organic germanium, which altogether have good properties to fight cancer.

Though use of this herb in the treatment of cancer has not yet been shown in clinical trials in North America, in China there have been some studies showing good results in regressing tumors.

The results depend on the type of cancer and the severity of the condition. It is usually recommended that it be used (after discussing with your cancer doctor) in combination with other prescribed medical treatments. Ganoderma extract has been helpful in reducing or eliminating the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy if it is taken before, during, and after the treatments. It has been found clinically to reduce side effects like hair loss, nausea, sore throat, loss of appetite and sleep.

This mushroom is available as a tea, as a candy, or in powder form.

It is typically given in doses ranging from 2 mg to 10 mg per day.

familychiropractic COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Dr. Warren Gage

Breastfeeding babies Healthcare practitioners all over the world,

from both medical and alternative backgrounds, recognize that breastfeeding is the optimal form of nutrition for infants during the first year of life. Even conservative organizations such as the World Health Organization recommend breastfeeding exclusively for the first six months and continuing with at least partial breastfeeding combined with appropriate foods up to two years of age and beyond.

With the benefits of breastfeeding universally understood, a tragedy I see in practice is when a new mother is struggling with what should be a natural, easy process. Far too often, I have a young mother come into the office for a chiropractic examination of their baby because they are having difficulties with the whole breastfeeding process. These problems usually include difficulties latching, excessive gas and spitting up, and troubles getting baby to feed equally from each breast.

When I review Mom and Baby’s health histories, I often hear of a difficult pregnancy, in-utero constraint, long labour, and significant doctor intervention during the birthing process. All of these challenges frequently result in a subluxated baby (and Mom) who require some chiropractic care. Even with a perfect, natural vaginal delivery, a lot of force is placed on the head and neck of the infant, resulting in cranial imbalances. This can occur because the bones in the skull of a newborn are mobile and are designed to shift in order to squeeze through the birth canal.

If they shift, but then do not return to their normal position, problems can arise. One of the most common problems I see is a subtle distortion of the hard palate or roof of baby’s mouth, which reduces the amount of suction a baby can produce.

Another frequent result of birth trauma is subluxation in the upper cervical spine, following twisting and pulling on baby’s head during delivery. The top vertebrae in the neck become restricted in motion, causing difficulty with rotating their heads equally from side to side. All too often, Moms come in upset that their baby is not breastfeeding well and are convinced that they are not doing it correctly. This problem is not Mom’s fault. It is simply a mechanical issue in their baby’s C-spine, causing them to be unable to turn their head comfortably. These babies will often prefer one breast over the other.

If they are severely subluxated, regardless of what breastfeeding position Mom tries, everything becomes a struggle.

There are many other symptoms and signs of subluxated babies that will interfere with proper breastfeeding; however, the good news is it is rare for me to see a baby that I cannot get sorted out through a series of gentle chiropractic adjustments. Chiropractic care for infants and kids is extremely gentle and safe. No manual-type adjustments are required. Clearing out birth-related stress from their spine and nervous system promotes easier and longer breastfeeding, resulting in happier and healthier babies and families.

Give your child a jump-start on life with a nervous system free and clear of interference.

Have their spine and nervous system checked for subluxation by Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic. Dr. Warren may be reached at (250) 803-0224.

Compost sales start in June

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

In the fall of 2012, the CSRD began using the yard and garden material brought in by residents to CSRD refuse disposal sites to create compost.

The first batch is now ready and will be sold, beginning June 2, at the Salmon Arm and Sicamous landfills, as well as several transfer stations in the Shuswap area.

The compost is comprised of yard and garden material only. The composting process was carried out following the strict guidelines of the Ministry of Environment’s Organic Matter Recycling Regulation to ensure all quality and safety standards have been met. “The CSRD compost is a Class ‘A’ compost, and has been lab tested to ensure all quality criteria has been met to enable the distribution of the compost material to the public.” says Waste R e d u c t i o n Facilitator Carmen Fennell. “Compost is a valuable soil amendment. The humus created in the composting process adds valuable fertilizer to your lawns, gardens and planters.

The addition of compost to your soil also allows it to retain moisture better”.

The compost will be available, while supplies last, at the Salmon Arm and Sicamous Landfills, as well as the Malakwa, Scotch Creek, Skimikin, Glenemma and Falkland Transfer Stations, during regular business hours. “U-load” compost will cost $10 per cubic metre, with a $5 minimum charge.

Residents are welcome to bring their own pickup trucks to load compost or to bring small containers, such as Rubbermaid totes, if only a small amount is required. For those wanting larger loads, the Salmon Arm Landfill will offer

a “We-load” option available on Friday and Saturday mornings from 9 AM to 12 PM for a cost of $30 per cubic metre.

Also beginning June 2, residents will see a few new disposal fees at the landfills and transfer stations. A $10 per tonne charge will be implemented for disposal of clean soil (accepted only at landfills), and fees will be charged for new separation categories of wood waste: chipped wood waste; clean wood waste; and treated wood waste. Chipped wood waste will cost $15 per tonne at the scaled sites or $5 per cubic metre at the unscaled sites. Clean wood waste and treated wood waste will cost $35 per tonne at scaled sites or $5 per cubic metre at unscaled sites.

“The fee for wood waste disposal has not changed,” says Fennell, “what has changed is the incentive to keep dirty and clean wood separate”.

Also, the new $15 per mattress recycling fee begins June 2. Mattresses pose significant operational challenges when disposed of in landfills. The decision to recycle mattresses, rather than burying them will not only save valuable space in the landfill, but it will also allow for the recovery of the resources mattress are comprised of, including wood and metal. “We have contracted with a company from Mara to collect and disassemble the mattresses so the wood and metal can be recovered and recycled.” The fee charged for the disposal will cover the dismantling costs.

Anyone who has a large volume of mattresses to dispose of may be able to arrange for a direct pick up with the recycling company by calling the CSRD for more information.

ATTENTION RELAY TEAMS!

CREDIT UNION INTRODUCES MANY CHANGES With the opening of SASCU’S uptown branch next to Askew’s Uptown on Sept. 3, 2013, CEO Michael Wagner told the annual general meeting that some significant changes have been noticed. The main one was that 200 new members joined the credit union, and $10-million in investment was made.

Members can do all their banking at uptown. It is open Saturdays till 4 p.m., even on long weekends, and the downtown branch is closed on Saturdays. At the May 6, 2014 AGM, Michael said Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union was rebranded to SASCU which now covers investing and insurance as well as banking and borrowing. He said it will take two years to complete changing all the signage.

FRENCH CAFÉ OPENS, NEEDS FT CHEF IN TRAINING Café Tasse opened at the front of the Prestige on Thurs., May 15, and was so busy that two days later, owner Maria Grand-Clément decided to hire an apprentice to train with husband Bernard Grand-Clément CCC. It helped that the Shuswap Writers’ Festival was held at the Prestige that weekend.

Maria and Bernard met at a culinary school where Bernard was teaching in 1993.They are the former owners of a fine dining restaurant and also a bistro in Naples, Florida. They semi-retired and two months ago, drove from Halifax to Langley to visit their daughter. Maria began looking at help-wanted ads because she wasn’t ready to just sit back. Besides, she was too young.

Maria was on her way to a job interview in Kelowna when she spotted an ad on castanet.net that was looking for an operator of a coffee shop at a hotel in Salmon Arm. She made an appointment with the manager of the Prestige Harbourfront Resort and stopped in before heading down to Kelowna. She cancelled her job interview and started planning for Café Tasse, a French cafe, six weeks ago.

Café Tasse is open seven days a week. Now they need full-time help for food prep, someone with some training or has apprentice status. The café is open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekdays, and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekends. www.cafetasse. ca.

RAILWAY UNDERPASS WILL BE AN EXTENSION TO DOWNTOWN The millions it will take to build the underpass will be worth it. Downtown Salmon Arm will be expanded to the walkway along the foreshore, bird watching, and all the businesses. The city will fulfill a promise made to the developer of the Prestige that if he builds a hotel, an underpass will be built. Every commercial venture that has been built across the tracks has put money into the city’s underpass fund, but none more than by the late Vic Bates who developed the waterfront.

DO YOU KNOW A YOUNG PERSON WHO WANTS TO BE A POLICE OFFICER? Becoming a member of a summer bike patrol is a good way to get a reference for applying to the RCMP or any police force. Salmon Arm Citizens’ Patrol is inviting young people to join for the summer months and work in pairs through downtown Salmon Arm. Bikes are provided. Application forms can be downloaded from http:// members.shaw.ca/sacp, filled, and taken to the RCMP detachment. Fill a criminal check form that’s on the counter, and leave it with your application.

A NEW CANADIAN STUDENT CAN TOUR WITH “EXPERIENCE CANADA” A great opportunity exists for a student aged 14 to 17 who was born in a different country, or at least have one parent who was born in another country. The student must be Canadian or be a permanent resident.

Between June 29 and July 5, 2014, the student can tour Ottawa, take a day trip to Montreal, see a Cirque de Soleil performance, hear guest speakers, go to sports and field trips, and on July 1, sing O Canada on Parliament Hill with thousands of Canadians. The cost of $500 covers the flight to Ottawa, meals, activities and accommodation at the Terry Fox Centre in Ottawa, which can accommodate 140 students. There is a full-time staff as well as six volunteer teacher-monitors.

For more information, go to www.encounters-rencontres.ca and read about Experience Canada week. In Salmon Arm, retired teacher Karen Hoover can answer questions about the program. She wrote: “It is the best educational deal out there. Most school trips these days cost $2500 - $3500.” khoover66@hotmail.com STEPS IN APPLYING FOR “EXPERIENCE CANADA” Karen Hoover added this: The student needs a signature from the school principal or representative.

Encounters With Canada asks that the schools send good ambassadors, good kids who follow rules. If a student wants to go and has the money, take a cheque to the school, made out to Encounters With Canada, for $500.

The school will contact Encounters and get a PIN so the student can register online. The school will mail the cheque and application form to Encounters. Bringing a cheque to the school is important because it shows the student is serious about going. Encounters does not want to make flight reservations and then find out the student has changed his/her mind about going.”

BENEFIT CONCERT FOR 15-YEAR-OLD PIANIST Local 15-year-old pianist, Jaeden Izik-Dzurko will present an hour-long program of classical masterpieces assisted by his 12-year-old sister Aria. Jaeden recently competed in Vancouver, where he advanced through the first and second rounds of the Canada Music Competition.

The benefit concert will be held on Fri., May 30 at 7 p.m. at First United Church. Admission by donation. All proceeds from this concert will go towards his trip to the Final Round of the Canada Music Competition in Quebec City. In the past six months, Jaeden has performed with both the Kamloops Symphony Orchestra and the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra.

PASSERS-BY FILL VIOLINIST’S HAT I watched as a young girl played her violin inside the entrance to Walmart on Saturday afternoon of the Victoria Day weekend. People were so generous to the busker as they walked in. So was I. The money created quite a pile of coins and a few $5 bills inside her violin case. She stayed two hours.

She was back on Victoria Day, Monday, entertaining people as they came to the store. On Saturday she made well over $60 an hour. Isn’t that good?

HAVE PICTURES TAKEN WITH AN RCMP IN RED SERGE Several years ago I saw a picture of a Mountie in Dawson City who posed for tourists wearing his red serge, sitting on a horse. He did this at the peak of tourist season, and tourists went bananas. I hoped one day we

would see the same in Salmon Arm. Well, we will in two days.

On Sunday the Salmon Arm RCMP are hosting a Police Fair and there will be an officer in red serge on her horse in RCMP tack. The fair will be a fundraiser and you will be asked to donate for the opportunity to take a picture, or perhaps sit on the horse. The fair will be held on May 25 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Shaw Centre arena to raise funds for the family of one of its own, Cpl. Jamie Leverrier whose four-year old daughter Megan needs a liver transplant. Admission is by donation. This will showcase many aspects of the RCMP including the police dog, helicopter, boat, radar gun, fingerprinting, a BBQ, collision rollover simulator, drug info, Emergency Response Team and much more. There will be various demonstrations throughout the day. There will also be a silent auction during the day and a live auction starting at 3 p.m.

RUSSIA’S PRESIDENT PUTIN IS A LIAR, SAYS HE HAS NO INTEREST IN UKRAINE I have been watching developments in Ukraine since the first protest in Kiev in November when President Yanukovych did not sign an agreement with the European Union, but chose instead to have closer ties with Russia.

The first thing I have been checking every morning and the last thing at night, and several times in between, has been news from Ukraine on TV and the internet.

In January I emailed Vicky, a relative in Lviv and asked how things were. She said her city was calm, but some of the 80 people killed in Kiev were her students in university where she teaches English.

In February, 2014 Ukraine’s president had his powers taken away and he fled to Russia, leaving a country that had been mired by years of corruption, mismanagement, lack of economic growth, and currency devaluation.

After that, Putin orchestrated a takeover of Crimea from Ukraine, and then he began working to get eastern regions which are rich with industry and populated mainly with Russians. He says he is moving his 40,000 soldiers away from the border with Ukraine, but he is lying, according to satellite images.

In two days, on Sunday, May 25, Ukraine will have an election to choose a new president. I hope Putin will not disrupt the day. I hope for a new Ukraine.

MANITOBA PLANS TO OPEN ADOPTION RECORDS Manitoba was slow in opening adoption records. In 1999 the province passed a law to release identifying information about adoptees and their parents unless one of them specifically requested anonymity, but it was not retroactive. It considered opening them as far back as 1925, but it did not. Thousands of people have been trying to find out about their birth families. By the time some adoptees learned of birth parents, they were dead.

Once the new legislation is passed, adopted children and birth parents would have a year to file a disclosure veto to prevent their records from being opened.

Otherwise, they will be considered open as far back as 1925. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

A will to run

I’ve never been very excited about running. I like exercising, but I’d rather chase a puck or a ball than go for a jog.

However, coming out of tax season, I thought it would be a good idea to get back into shape with a little running.

To help motivate me, my wife decided we should go for a family run last Saturday morning. With the exception of our teenager, who was playing in a basketball tournament that day, we all got up early and headed out.

The plan was for my wife (who runs often) and my 2nd and 3rd sons to run a 6 km route while my little guy and I ran a 3 km route. As it was my first real exercise in a couple of months, I was more than happy to hang out with my youngest and run the shorter distance.

Despite the fact my youngest is only seven years old, I was a little worried about keeping up with the little guy.

Both he and our third son had been participating in cross country running at

school, so despite his having much shorter legs, I knew he had much stronger lungs.

So off we went, and initially I was feeling pretty good. I had some of my usual pains, but overall I felt I could handle the 3 km and, more importantly, keep up with a seven-year-old.

However, after the 2 km mark my little guy could clearly see I was labouring.

“Dad, why don’t we walk for a little while to re-energize?” he asked. Of course I accepted any invitation to take a break.

So, after walking for around 50 metres, we decided to finish the rest of the run without stopping. I knew this would be the hardest part for an out of shape “Ol’ Dad,” but I was lucky to have one of the best motivational runners at my side.

“Dad, it’s not that much further, push through the pain! Just imagine you can

Mall Arkey Investments This Week

by Daron Mayes smell the pancakes coming all the way from home. It’ll help you not stop,” my little guy advised.

Before we had left on our run, my wife had promised us pancakes. She made it sound like a tool to motivate the kids, but I was starting to think it was more to motivate me. Clearly Nate felt the pancake bribe was meant for me too.

Well, it worked. I managed to “push through the pain” and the thought of pancakes on the other end definitely was the thing that got me to the finish line.

So if you are struggling to “push through the pain,” just think of a little seven-year-old by your side and the smell of pancakes. It works ever time.

Well...I am not sure there will be a next time!

3 bedroom unit $ 1 9 4 ,5 0 0 1449 1 st Ave NE, Salmon Arm, BC off Okanagan/16th St. NE

Recently we purchased a new box of blue bags….silly us. Then we received notice that they would no longer be acceptable at the curbside.

Lovely!

The blue bag program worked quite well for us, the consumer. We live at the top of a long, steep and curving driveway. No trash or recycling pickup has ever been made on or at the end of our property in the quarter century we have lived here. We have always had to take our detritus and organic refuse in the politically correct containers down the street to be picked up. Yes, it has been a bit of an inconvenience, but we chose to live where we are because of the location and have resigned ourselves to the situation and never complained.

That has changed! It has all come to a screeching halt!

Without any public input, dialogue or research, some brilliant person or plurality has

decided that a whole lot more corporate profit might be generated by tossing a wrench into the efficient trash collection machinery that has served us well for all these years. It has been replaced with an unacceptable protocol which will greatly inconvenience everyone, and particularly the senior demographic of society, many of whom are mobility challenged or do not have access to a vehicle to spend their hard-tocome-by income for petrol to traipse all over the devil’s landscape to find a receptacle to take whatever can no longer be picked up at their homes. This landscape will once again become an eyesore with windblown plastic bags and broken glass.

The provincial government of British Columbia no longer pretends to run a democracy but answers only to its corporate masters and appears to support the lunacy.

In our case, the four newspapers that have been delivered to our home every week will have to be cancelled, and we will pick up whatever issues we wish at one of the retail outlets, peruse the contents, check the flyers and then deposit the whole thing in a public receptacle. Empty food containers of all types, including glass, will be wrapped in plastic shopping bags and placed in the trash that will still, for how long who knows, be picked up every two weeks at the curb and dragged to an unsanitary landfill. So much for progress!

We would like to continue to do the right thing but as in so many instances the current Fiberal government has trumped our hand and there is no alternative but to practice civil opposition as best we are able.

Disgruntled? Yes! Defeated?

No! Edgar Murdoch, Enderby

Shuswap Hospice gearing up for bear clinic

In two weeks McGuire Lake Park will be overrun by bears – teddy bears, that is!

Shuswap Hospice is hosting its first annual Teddy Bear Hospital & Community Health Fair on Sunday, June 1 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It’s going to be a fun-filled day of activities, and, at the same time, a fundraising event for Shuswap Hospice.

“Children can bring their bears for a medical check-up at an outdoor emergency room manned by physicians and hospital staff,” says Fundraising Committee Chair Sue McCrae. “The children tell the nurses and staff what is wrong with the bear. They will then be triaged to areas in the hospital depending on the complaint.

Some may need a stitch, others may need a ‘cast,’ others may just need an exam and some TLC.” Entrance fee is $5 per bear. Besides the teddy bear hospital, this is event is also an opportunity for local health and wellness businesses to provide information about their services.

“We’ve excited about the variety we have lined up for our health fair: Gondwana Gallery, Canadian Hearing Care Inc., Montebello Medical Clinic, Harbourfront Family Chiropractic, Lakeside Medical Supplies, Shuswap Acupuncture, Shuswap Core Pilates, Gratitude Yoga & CrossFit Salmon Arm, Evelyn’s Eye Wear, Barefoot Books, Interior Health and Salmon Arm Public Health, and the RCMP. The Lions will be serving up hamburgers and hot dogs and members of the Living Waters Community Church youth group will be helping with the kids’ activities.”

A big part of the day includes the Seniors Memory Walk around McGuire Lake and the Memory Lakeshore Walk to Raven.

Participants are invited to get pledges and then sign up to take one of these walks in honour of a lost friend or loved one.

“Seniors can walk, with or without assistance, around McGuire Lake. There will be volunteers to assist anyone who needs help. For those who can do a longer walk, we’re inviting them to take the Memory Lakeshore Walk to Raven. This is a special way to acknowledge the memory of our loved ones – enjoying nature and in community with others.”

Pledge sheets can be downloaded from the Shuswap Hospice website, or picked up at Beer’s Ladies Wear, 146 Lakeshore Drive NE, or the Shuswap Hospice office at #209, 231 Trans Canada Hwy NE (above the Bank of Montreal).

The money raised at this event helps Shuswap Hospice meet an increasing demand for services around the Shuswap. Hospice is a patient-centred, end-of-life-care team. Hospice provides emotional support and strives to make the last months of life as comfortable and peaceful for clients, their families and friends.

“Every year the request for our services grow,” says McCrae. “This fundraising event gives us the means of training more volunteers and meet the increasing demand for hospice services in our communities.

New chiropractor at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic Doctor Brian Luco came by his profession by a strange path. He had been working for four years in the RCMP in Stettler, Alberta when he hurt his back. His wife, Colleen, suggested he go to her chiropractor.

After a few sessions he was feeling great and then the chiropractor offered a suggestion.

“He said, ‘You’re a people person, why don’t you think about chiropractic?”

Brian followed his advice, sold his house, and moved to Toronto to go to school. After he graduated, the family moved to Red Deer, Alberta where he ran a clinic for 28 years.

“I went from helping people to helping people,” he says with a smile.

Twenty years ago Brian and Colleen bought property in Sicamous where they loved to spend time in the summer.

Now they live there permanently but Brian wasn’t really ready to retire. He’s working three half days with Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic.

“I just love what I do and this is an extremely positive and modern office with digital X-ray. It’s bright and the front staff are well trained and service oriented. I’m enjoying my ‘partial retirement.’”

Brian and Colleen have two children: Shawn Patrick who is a master electrician in Vancouver, and Erin Christel, a dental hygienist in Whistler.

When Brian isn’t at work he’s not a man of leisure. His life is busy with golf, cycling, hockey, pickle ball and bridge.

To contact Harbourfront Family Clinic visit their website at: www.wellnesschiro.net, email hfcchiro@telus. net, or phone 250-803-0224.

Reliable Septic Services Inc. expanding services With a brand new truck on the road, Reliable Septic is expanding its coverage area into the North Shuswap and will also be servicing commercial.

Reliable Septic has been around for over 30 years and has remained a family business for the majority of that time. Begun by Joe Simon, it was originally called Joe’s Reliable Septic. It was bought by Jurgen and Barb Weidemann who ran it for many years. After Jurgen passed away Barb ran the business for a couple of years and then she passed away in January 2013.

But the business is still in the family, as Barb’s brothers, Terry Sulphur (above, left) and Chris Sulphur, have bought into the company along with Barb’s son, Jacob Starnyski (above, right).

Chris & Jacob run the two septic trucks and Terry oversees operations.

Chris and his wife, Cathy, also own Trademark Glass.

Terry and his wife, Karen, own Mountain Side Earthworks Ltd., a commercial civil contracting business in the industrial park. Reliable Septic is run out of the same building located right behind the Country Kitchen restaurant.

“We’re happy to expand our service to the entire Shuswap area and to commercial customers,” says Terry.

“And people will be happy to know it’s still the same reliable service.”

They offer neighbourhood discounts. Contact them at 250-832-8404.

Shuswap Firefighters do well at competition Earlier this month local fire firefighters, along with 94 other departments and 335 firefighters from across B.C. attended the annual spring training seminar in Oliver, and several placed well in the personal and team fit challenges.

“This is a good reflection of the training that the firefighters do on Tuesdays, Thursdays and most weekends,” says CSRD Fire Services Coordinator Kenn Mount.

“For not having trained specifically for the challenges prior to the seminar, the firefighters did very well.”

Local firefighter Ty Barrett from the Shuswap Fire Department took first place in 3 categories; age group, officer and best overall course time; completing the course in a breathtaking 1 minute and 9 seconds. Three other Shuswap members also participated in the challenge; all achieving great times. Four Shuswap members also put a team together for the Rapid Intervention Team Challenge(RIT). They were very successful, placing 3rd overall.

Jessica Friesen from Tappen/Sunnybrae Fire Department had the time of 02:03:44. It was the fastest time for a female.

New managers of Barr’s Bistro Jan Seelinger (above, left) and Debbie Beadle (above, right) are new co-managers of Barr’s Bistro at Canoe Creek Golf Course. They’re both long-time residents of Salmon Arm and have a mix of business and professional background experience.

Jan has owned various businesses and still works as a Specialized Victim Service Worker and Debbie retired from her job as a Police-Based Victim Service Worker.

Their menu is made to suit the golfer who is in a hurry to hit the course or for those who want to sit watch a game on the big screen TV. Their humour is apparent in

the way they’ve named some of the menu items: Early ‘Birdie’ breakfast bun to go and the Grab n’ Go Grub ‘Sand wedges’ featuring fresh oven-baked chicken or roast beef and egg salad. They make their own chocolate chip cookies, cinnamon buns and sausage rolls on site.

“It’s a new menu,” says Jan. “Everything is fresh. We bake our own bread and buns. None of the meat is processed. We have home-made recipes (like pulled-pork or kale salad with cranberries and pumpkin seed) and full bar service.” [You have to try their signature ‘Canoe Creek Caesar.’]

Later on in the season they’ll fire the grill up. Right now the kitchen is open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. They will be having daily specials and various specials on Thursdays, which is Men’s Night.

Jan and Debbie say their long-term plan is to own a tapas bar ‘on a beach somewhere hot’. Until that happens they’re located at 6015 Shaw Road. Call 250-832-3285.

New manager at Canoe Creek Golf Course Mike Loewen (above) is the new Head Golf Professional/Manager of Canoe Creek Golf Course. Mike has been playing golf since he was 13 and got a job at a golf course a year later, washing carts and picking up driving range balls.

He grew up in Duncan, Vancouver Island and has been living in Kelowna for the past nine years working on a golf course.

During his off season Mike has had a wide range of jobs including drilling in Alberta oil rigs. During his free time he likes working his car: “I have an old hot rod and I go to shows. It’s always been a hobby. I still own the first car I ever got – a ‘68 Camaro. This year I’m putting in a new grill and headlights.”

As the head professional coach, Mike will be giving lessons from the very beginner to more advanced players who are looking to improve their game.

Mike says golfers will appreciate changes in the rate-structure. Tuesday Twilight savings are available all day on Tuesdays. They will also offer a mid-day rate and an evening rate. There are also new sponsorship opportunities for Thursday’s Men’s Nights.

Contact Mike at headpro@canoecreekgolf.com or phone 250-832-3285.

New GM at Staples Jeff Chesham is the new General Manager at the Salmon Arm location of Staples. Jeff has been a retail manager for various stores for over 20 years. He was born and raised in the Lower Mainland but he was excited when he was transferred to the Shuswap for his previous job.

“I’ve been here for nine years and I’m never going to leave. I’m excited about my new venture and I’m looking forward to networking with other business leaders in our community.”

Jeff is married and has two daughters. When he’s not at work he likes to golf, fish, and ski. He is also a board member on the Canadian Mental health Shuswap Revelstoke Region board.

Congratulations Happy retirement to Jean Howard who retired this month after a 23-year career at the Salmon Arm Credit Union.

Alison Black is the new Junior Designer at Lakeside Printing. Alison just finished her two-year Digital Art & Design Diploma from Thompson River University.

Horses galore at WAM show

By Nancy Roman Come one, come all to the Armstrong Fairgrounds on Sunday, May 25th and see our beautiful horses, all shapes and sizes, taking part in the first annual W.A.M. Pot o’ Gold Horse Show.

W . A . M . stands for Welsh, Arabian, and Morgan.

This event is co-hosted by three local clubs wanting to bring attention to their specific breed; the BC Welsh Pony & Cob Association, the BC Interior Arabian Horse Association, and the BC Interior Morgan Horse Club. The three breeds have one thing in common: a commanding presence! They are lovely to watch and their manes and tails fly in the wind – beauty in action!

This event also welcomes other

horse breeds, in various sizes, to participate, including miniatures, ponies, quarter horses, paints, appaloosas, maybe a draft horse, a mule or donkey or… you never know! Watch them all compete in Halter c l a s s e s , Showmanship, Driving, English and Western Performance classes, Trail c o u r s e s , Leadline, Green horse/rider, and Gymkhana games.

The show starts at 9:00 a.m. and runs all day.

Admission is free and everyone is invited to come by and watch the horses compete and play. There is a food concession on site and majority of events are in the Agriplex under cover. Trail and Gymkhana are outdoors. Please join us and see why we all love to show (off) our horses!

DesignDilemmas

by Linda Erlam

Harmony and theme. What?

The repetition of a design element creates harmony in a room and a theme comes from strong harmony.

The scroll work on the hanging light fixture over the dining table is replicated in the candles holders. It is hinted at in the scroll design in the drapery panels. The pendant lamps over the kitchen island repeat the design and we see it in the coffee table and on the area rug.

You love the roses in the drapery fabric. It is repeated in a rose motif on a few sofa cushions or the area rug. If it’s a bedroom, then motif reappears on the pillow shams, bed skirt, lamp base and a picture or two. A soft-coloured bouquet of roses painted on the front of a bedside table helps build the harmony.

These repeated elements do not have to be duplicated exactly; that could look very contrived and far to “picture perfect.” The scroll-work might be generally oval-shaped but is always the same colour; there might be one type of rose repeated through the room and it is always the same colour.

Which leads to theme – theme is taking harmony up just a notch.

Suppose you have a boy’s room to spruce up and his favourite sport is hockey. This one is easy; the room colour scheme could be the same as the favourite team, hockey

sticks can be repurposed as a curtain rod or lined up and used as a headboard. A few jerseys, some framed pictures, a bit of stencilling on a lamp shade and the theme is done. Don’t overdo it, but make sure one major element – a team’s logo, perhaps – is repeated at least three times.

The theme is the overall feeling you get when you walk into the room. The theme of the rose room might be a summer garden; build the theme with colours found in the rose garden. Perhaps the walls could be soft yellow, peach or pink – depending on the rose motif you chose. Add plants, and bouquets of real (or good faux) flowers. For an old-world feel, perhaps trellis wallpaper. No dark wood here; white wicker or white-washed wood. This is not the room to experiment with a red feature wall; whereas in the boy’s room, it might be a spectacular backdrop for the jersey displays.

Theme is sometimes difficult to spot in today’s decors that tend toward eclectic mixes of style and design. That is the way we live.

However, if you want a rose garden bedroom, achieving it is done through theme and harmony.

I have a new video up on the website Designsewlutions.ca. Have a look at “How to Deal With Expansion Curtain Rods.”

Hotel and Resort. And thank you to Rod Charlebois who for several

years has performed as the emcee for the Night of Stars.

By Sue Wolff and Jamie Oosterhuis, Shuswap Music Festival Society This year the Shuswap Music Festival Society sought the talents of a young high school photographer to assist with documenting the many activities of the two-week festival.

With the help of photography teacher, Brent Chudiak at Salmon Arm Secondary School, Jamie Oosterhuis was chosen. This is her story…

“My name is Jamie Oosterhuis.

I’m a student at Salmon Arm Secondary School and I’ve been doing photography for about four years. I heard about a photography project for the Shuswap Musical Festival through my friend, who then introduced me to Richard Sim, the school liaison for the festival. I had no clue there were so many talented music students throughout the Okanagan area.

Over the course of two weeks in April, Shuswap music students came together at different locations throughout Salmon Arm to show off their bright talents to professional music adjudicators. The ages of the students ranged from five to 18 years old, with music levels varying from

beginner to advanced. Each category of instruments such as piano, strings or band, and vocal groups, including musical theatre and choirs, were scheduled for certain days. All students performed (most without sheet music) for an adjudicator. The adjudicator spoke with each student or group, providing a mini lesson and encouragement. The adjudicators chose the ‘best of the fest’ and handed out achievement certificates. At the end of the two weeks, the top students of each instrument and vocal group performed at the “Night Of Stars”, a night to show-off to friends and family their talents and hard work. The night of music was enjoyed by the large audience and students, all the same, and ended with many scholarships, awards and smiles.

It was an honour for me to help out with the Shuswap Music Festival and share this great community event through my perspective.”

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Champion fiddler honours Don Messer’s Jubilee Multiple Canadian Fiddle Champion Scott Woods and his band will soon be in the area to deliver an authentic live tribute to Don Messer’s Jubilee – one of the most popular TV shows in Canadian history.

Woods, a two-time Canadian Grand Masters Fiddle Champion and twotime Canadian Open Fiddle Champion and Fiddle Entertainer of the Year, does more than just play fiddle tunes.

He likens his show to that of Don Messer’s Jubilee that ran on CBC from 1957 to 1969.

“Basically what Don Messer did and what we do is an old-time variety show,” explains Woods, “similar to what they used to do on the radio or on television in the early days. They’d have singing and then an instrumental and then some dancing and some comedy.”

Woods was the musical director and played the part of Don Messer for seven years with “Memories of Don Messer’s Jubilee’ that toured extensively throughout Canada. He was also the headline act that launched the Don Messer Centennial Celebrations that took place in Harvey NB in 2009.

Woods loves his main audience; families and seniors. “We meet some

Meditations

truly wonderful people,” he says.

“They’re very appreciative and love what we’re doing and that makes us feel good. You don’t have to be a fiddle fan to enjoy the show.

It’s good, clean fun that you can be proud to take your grandkids or grandparents to.”

Woods and his band perform up to 150 concerts every year, most of which are fundraisers supporting churches, charities and other community service groups. “My dad always taught us to give back whenever we could,” Scott recalls.

“We hope to continue doing this for many years to come.”

Scott Woods’ Old Time Jubilee reunites Canadian Grand Master Fiddle Champion Scott Woods (as Don Messer), Cape Breton Tenor Tommy Leadbeater (as Charlie Chamberlain) and East Coast Music Award Winner Bruce Timmins (as Cecil McEachern). Also featured

Read: Job 1:1-12, 2:1-10

The Significance of Testing That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory.

- 1 Peter 1:7.

"There was a man ..." No other book in the Bible begins in this way. Job was a man who faced an unusually rigorous series of tests. Also unusual is that the book shows what went on behind the scenes between God and Satan.

Satan accused God of putting a hedge around Job. The hedge protected his health, wealth, and family, and Satan was sure that Job would curse God if he lost these things. But Job stood the test and responded properly, his faith in God unbroken.

We sometimes wonder about the significance of our tests. They are tremendously significant in that our tests have cosmic implications. The powers of heaven and earth discuss them. Our own small history of faith takes place within the larger drama of the history of the universe. You and I are foot soldiers in the colossal spiritual battle of the ages.

Second, our tests are significant in that God’s reputation is affected by their outcome. The astonishing truth is that our choices of faith matter not only to us and our destiny, but also to God. Job’s faithfulness brought God a great victory over Satan.

Third, our tests are significant in that they teach us to believe in God even when the tests are severe and nothing about them seems to make sense. We learn that God wants us to trust Him for no other reason than that He is God. Can we say with Job, "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him."? (Job 13:15) Can we say this even when we are stripped bare of wealth and health, of family and friends, and when pain descends until everything hurts? When we are in that place, we find that God is more interested in our unwavering trust than in our pleasure.

James Baer - Salmon Arm, BC

Simple, accepting faith is what pleases God.

The Face of Love

Devastated after the sudden loss of her husband Garrett five years earlier, Nikki (Annette Bening) has been in mourning ever since and not allowed another man, including her long-smitten neighbour (Robin Williams), to broach her defences. But on a visit to the art museum as a comforting reminder of her husband, Nikki by chance meets Tom (Ed Harris), an art teacher who is the spitting image of Garrett. Flooded with feelings that she’s met the love of her life all over again, a romance blooms and Nikki struggles to tell Tom of his remarkable resemblance and also to accept that he is whole different person who has his own secrets.

A beautiful reflection on the mysteries of the heart, and given the choice, do we cling to love known and lost, or take a chance on the potential of an uncertain future?

The Face of Love shows on Saturday, May 24th at 5:00 p.m. at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

Climate change and game animals

Keeping the parking peace

Hot cars can spell death for pets

With temperatures rising across the province, the BC SPCA is reminding the public to protect their pets against the dangers of heat exhaustion and heatstroke.

“When the days get warmer we get hundreds of emergency calls to rescue dogs whose lives are endangered because they are left in hot cars by their guardians,” says Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA. “Many well-meaning guardians leave their dogs unattended in parked cars while they run errands.

Tragically, this can lead to serious heatstroke and even death for their pets.”

The temperature in a parked car, even in the shade with windows partly open, can rapidly reach a level that will seriously harm or even kill a pet. In just minutes, the temperature in a parked car can climb to well over 38 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit). Dogs have no sweat glands, so they cool themselves by panting and by releasing heat through their paws. On summer days the hot air and upholstery in a vehicle can make it impossible for pets to cool themselves. Dogs can withstand high temperatures for only a very short time – usually just 10 minutes – before suffering irreparable brain damage or death.

Pet guardians should be alert to heatstroke symptoms, which include: exaggerated panting (or the sudden stopping of panting), rapid or erratic pulse, salivation, anxious or staring

PET

expression, weakness and muscle tremors, lack of coordination, convulsions or vomiting, and collapse.

If your dog shows symptoms of heatstroke, you should do the following: Immediately move the animal to a cool, shady place; wet the dog with cool water; fan vigorously to promote evaporation–this will cool the blood, which reduces the animal’s core temperature; do not apply ice.

This constricts blood flow, which will inhibit cooling. Allow the dog to drink some cool water (or to lick ice cream if no water is available); and take the dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible for further treatment.

“If you’re used to letting your dog accompany you on errands, you might feel guilty leaving him behind on hot summer days. But your dog will be much happier – and safer – at home, with shade and plenty of fresh cool water,” Chortyk says.

The BC SPCA is a non-profit organization funded primarily by public donations. They strive to prevent cruelty and to promote the welfare of animals through a wide range of services, including cruelty investigations, emergency rescue and treatment, sheltering and adoption of homeless and abused animals, humane education, advocacy, farm animal welfare, spay/neuter programs, and wildlife rescue and rehabilitation.

of the MONTH

Rounding a bend while driving up the 1-11 road (toward Sicamous) last week, I came upon a very large cow moose with her calf, right on the road.

She lunged into the bush while the calf climbed a steep bank and stood still. Not far behind came three timber wolves who had been chasing them, no doubt to take down the calf. This prey-predator scenario unfolds on a daily basis in the BC woods.

It’s a sight the average person never gives thought to. But this was different. Both moose had patches of hair missing, with grey blotching along the head and shoulder–a sign of heavy moose tick infestation.

The wolves vanished quickly into the timber as well; they too looked bedraggled, thin, and with poor coats.

Two seasons ago, a trapper whose large line runs across the Adam’s plateau, took 28 animals and only shipped three, as their hides were poor – an urgent, growing sign that our fish and even wildlife are being affected with climate change. Both the US and the Canadian Wildlife Federation consider change as the greatest threat to our wildlife. It is beginning to affect wildlife habitats, populations, distribution, life cycles, and health. Rising temperatures for moose, elk, and deer, from the Yukon to lower BC, creates severe tick infections, drought, making them move to better habitats. Food availability and migration routes will change, as forests are harvested and new seedlings are planted. Here in BC, we will see more increases in summer/winter temperatures, especially in the north, with wetter winters throughout the province. Summers will be drier in the south, and wetter in the north.

There will be an increase in the intensity and amount of precipitation. There will also be an increase in the frequency of intense events, and less snow and snowpack. As we now see, drought hits many areas, with flooding in other locations.

The sea level rises, with ocean acidification.

Yet across the prairies, extended cold and winter storms affect feeding and survival for game populations, and lakes were frozen until last month, causing flooding.

So what do we do as average citizens and hunters and anglers? In BC, we need to get strategic with our wildlife management actions, telling wildlife managers our concerns, whether we belong to a naturalists’ club, fish and game club, or citizens’ group. We also need to know what things will impede animals/birds, their ability to move or to adapt in their natural surroundings. Hunters can play an important role by observing animal behaviour, like heavy tick infestation, disease (like chronic wasting disease) or odd behaviour pat-

terns; and how changing environmental conditions are affecting fish, wildlife, and game populations.

In our lakes, change is also occurring; with warming temperatures affecting aquatic weed and marl beds, which trout depend upon due to its variety of insects living in or hatching there. Overall then, from what we see on nightly TV news casts from the major flooding in the Balkans, to major wildfires in California. Here at home, we can practice the 5 R’s of climate change. 1. Adapt, resist: Try to control disease, invasive species, (perch/ goldfish/ Zebra mussels). 2. Resilience: Do your part to practice and encourage healthy diverse ecosystems. 3. Response: Encourage governing bodies to create wildlife corridors so wildlife can respond effectively to climate change. 4. Realign: As current conditions change, be prepared to deal with our new reality by reducing waste. Practice the 100 kilometre zone on gardening, planting more arable plant species, and help wildlife in your area to adjust. 5. Reduce: if we want to continue to use, enjoy, and appreciate our native BC wildlife, every one of us needs to do whatever we can, to reduce our individual and group greenhouse gas emissions. We do see the changes occurring on the ground and in our air.

We are very fortunate to live where we do, but we also must do our part for ourselves and the wildlife that lives around us.

Here and there in the Shuswap

It seems the bird population in the Shuswap is decreasing. We don’t see as many swallows as before. Bluebirds just don’t like it here, yet there is an abundance of robins.

However, the term “jailbird” has taken on a whole new meaning in other parts of the world. In Columbia, police say a pigeon was used to try and smuggle drugs into a prison. It had 40 grams of bud and 5 grams of cocaine strapped to its body. It was too heavy and couldn’t outfly the cops! A parrot was trained to holler, “run” at the sight of approaching cops. Carrier pigeons in Mexico were caught smuggling illegal cell phone SIM cards into a prison. A brown owl in Pforzheim, Germany, was taken into custody by police for intoxication. They didn’t breathalyze the bird, but there were two bottles of schnapps in the vicinity.

Tight lines and good fishin’!

Hendrikus ‘Hank’ deBoer April 20, 1934 - May 16, 2014

It is with sadness that the family of Hank announces his passing on Friday May 16, 2014 at the age of 80 years, in Salmon Arm, BC. Born in Holland on April 20, 1934 to parents Gerhardt and Fimke, Hank was born into a family of 15 children. Hank immigrated to Canada as a young man at the age of 19 and started his working career on a dairy farm and later joined CP Rail. Hank enjoyed both of these careers, serving both industries with commitment and passion.

Hank will be sadly missed by his family: wife of 34 years, Pam; children Cerran, David, Janice, Danny, Simon and Alison and their spouses; 10 grandchildren and one great grandson. Hank also leaves behind three brothers and their families as well as many nieces, nephews and friends.

A celebration of life service will take place on Sunday, June 1, 2014 at 2:00 pm from Bowers Funeral Chapel. A reception will follow the service allowing family and friends to continue sharing memories.

Online condolences may be sent through Hank’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

A celebration of life service will be held at RidgePointe at Pineview, 1789 Primrose Court (Kamloops) on Friday, May 23 at 11:00 am, with Jack Bowers officiating.

He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He had a happy disposition, a grand sense of humor, and a love for his family.

He was predeceased by his wife June, son David, brother Trevor, sister Lucy, and sister Dorothy. Cliff leaves behind a loving family; daughter Connie (David) Schleppe; three granddaughters, Jenn (Denny) Schleppe, Katie (Tejinder) Bains, and Melissa Horsley; grandson, Jamie Horsley; great-grandchildren, Maycie and Pyper Coates, Jeremy, Eli, Airyanna, Tyrion, and Audric Lock; siblings Art, Laura, Mervin, and Glen; sister in-law Jessie Green; and his favorite dogs, Chuck and Belle. He will be missed not only by his family, but also by his many friends in Salmon Arm and at RidgePointe.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Kamloops SPCA, in memory of his love for animals.

He will be missed, but never forgotten.
