There are more than 240 allergens, some rare and others very common. If you’re a sneezer due to pollen: close your car’s windows while driving, rather switch on the internal fan (drawing in air from the outside), and avoid being outdoors between 5am and 10 am when pollen counts are at their highest; stick to holidays in areas with low pollen counts, such as the seaside and stay away from freshly cut grass.

Remembering old days, old ways

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

There aren’t a lot of empty seats at Marjorie’s Tea room. The business at the Salmon Arm Museum and Heritage Association AGM is concluding, and Deborah Chapman introduces their guest speaker, Louis Thomas.

“When I asked him for a bio, he said, ‘Just make it up.’”

That answer, she explains, is indicative of his personality, not wanting the limelight but being quiet in the background. Deborah recalls the times when she would call Mary Thomas, Louis’ mother, and ask her for various things for displays. Mary would say yes, and Louis was usually the one doing the work, she adds, laughing.

“He’s always helping me and not taking any credit. Now I see him being the voice for the people.”

With a smile and his typical humour, Louis says he’s going to read material from a book he was asked to write on the early history of the Secwepemc people.

When he was asked to do it he answered: “‘Why me? I’m too young – going on 69.’”

The sources, he goes on to explain, come from the oral history of the Native people: “The oral history was handed on to me by my elders, and some of it is my own personal experience.”

By the late 1800s and early 1900s the old monetary system [“a lot of bartering’] had more or less disappeared. The Natives traded a lot with the early Finnish settlers.

Louis says when his grandmother traded with them, she would tell them to go to the root cellar and get what they needed and trusted them to make a fair trade.

“There was a lot of trust back then.”

He remembers berries covering the hillsides that they would gather and dry for winter use. He peppers his talk with Secwepemc names of berries and places, but he amuses everyone when he stops at one name and says “don’t ask me the Indian name – it’s a real tongue twister.”

He talks of the time when his people were totally self-reliant with their fishing, hunting, trapping, and berry harvesting. The land provided more than enough food for the people.

“My grandmother told me there were so many salmon they pushed the river back upstream.

They claimed you could walk across the river and not get your feet wet.”

Their way of life changed as more and more

friends&neighbours

by Leah Blain non-Natives moved into the area.

“More settlers moved in and the government placed us on smaller reserves. We started losing our land to the settlers.”

In those days it was the custom for the eldest son to go to their grandparents to be raised.

“I believe this was the custom so the adopted son could take care of the grandparents. I was the second son and I was given to my maternal grandparents. I was allowed to return home if I became too homesick.”

His grandfather taught him to spear fish.

Watching Louis once caused his grandfather to laugh until he cried, but Louis eventually became very adept. He remembers when this old way of life became illegal. The fish warden caught Louis’ dad fishing and went for the RCMP. “He went to court and was fined $35. That was a lot of money back then.”

Louis also remembers seeing the older children being sent to the residential school in Kamloops. “The cattle truck would meet them. The trucks hadn’t even been swept clean. It was very uncomfortable. I was too young to understand why they were being taken away. Children and mothers were crying. I would cry too....” here Louis stops talking because he is too choked up with the memory. “I’m sorry,” he repeats. “I can imagine their pain.”

“We’re sorry,” says someone from the crowd.

Louis talks a little about cures medicine women had provided when a regular doctor had given up hope, mythical animals in Native culture, sweat lodges, and the gradual change of the Native culture.

“Men started taking jobs in mills, and by 1952, Native children were allowed to attend regular school. I went to Salmon Arm West; I had to walk to school – uphill both ways,” he adds with a smile.

“I have my own sweat lodge. I meditate on the challenges. Our people try to continue to keep their ways in a technological age. The age of industrial revolution is not part of our culture.

The salmon have left, the forests have been depleted. I wonder what the world will look like for my grandchildren?”

Shoe house donation benefits food bank This miniature replica of the shoe house from the children’s nursery rhyme has been lovingly constructed by Willey Joswig, who has donated the house to the local Salvation Army at a time when the organization is looking to expand. The food

bank and meal facilities will be moving from the present premises to their former thrift shop site.

This shoe house is currently on display at Centenoka Park Mall. Mall Arkey Investments or Nutters will accept donations; every donation will earn a ticket in the draw-box, and after a month’s time a draw will be made and one lucky individual will win the shoe house.

Donations are also accepted online at www.

This fruit is known as an exotic fruit, and is one of the super fruits with various health benefits.

Recently, it has gained more popularity in North America because it is rich in antioxidants, though in India this fruit has been known for its health benefits for thousands of years, and is routinely used to control such problems as diarrhea; however, too much of it causes constipation. The bark of this tree is used as an anti-parasitic agent, which is useful in treating intestinal parasites, mainly tapeworm. Due to the bark’s toxicity, though, it is best to be taken under supervision.

According to a recent study done on mice, antioxidants contained in pomegranate juice may help to lessen hardening of the arteries and related diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. In one study, taking 250 ml of juice for three months improved the amount of oxygen getting to the heart muscle of patients with coronary heart disease. Pomegranates contain many phyto-chemicals with antioxidant action such as ellagic acid, which has anti-carcinogenic properties.

Some studies have found its juice to be helpful in prostate cancer. One study found that a glass a day of pomegranate juice helped men with prostate problems to live a full life span. The cancer-fighting capabili-

ty of this fruit is due to its rich antioxidant properties. In fact, researchers say pomegranate juice has higher levels of antioxidants than red wine or green tea, which have also been investigated for their potential cancer prevention effects.

Other studies show that this juice is also helpful in lung, skin and possibly breast cancer prevention.

Moreover, pomegranate juice has lately been compared to Viagra.

According to University of California scientists, men with libido problems experienced improvement in their condition, after consuming a daily glass of pomegranate juice.

Pomegranate seed oil contains phytoestrogens, similar to the estrogens naturally produced by the human body. This oil helps to ease symptoms associated with menopause and pre menopause. It is also used for cosmetic purposes as it helps in moisturizing and improving skin elasticity.

Before starting to take this juice on a regular basis, please talk with your health care provider as it can interact with certain medications.

Select organic fruit or juice. Some of our local stores carry fresh pomegranates.

Healthy weeding

Gardening and landscaping around the house for some can be a real chore, but even if it is not a passion, it is still a beneficial lifestyle habit. Mowing the lawn is a healthy activity to keep you mobile, and growing your own food is a healthy and very rewarding way to feed the family. If you have small children, it is also extremely beneficial to teach them how to grow their own food to be more self-sufficient.

One issue all gardeners face is the constant battle to stay ahead of unwanted weeds.

Companies like Monsanto would like you to believe a safe and effective way to rid your yard of those pesky weeds is through the use of their “safe” herbicides like Roundup.

Unfortunately, through their massive corporate and financial powers they have done a terrific job at hiding the truth about how toxic these chemicals are in our environment. In fact, heavy use of these herbicides have been linked to all sorts of health problems and diseases in children and adults including cancer, Parkinson’s, and infertility; not to mention the havoc it reeks on the nervous systems of our pets, the birds, the insects and various other creatures that live and explore our yards and gardens.

While agricultural workers are required to wear safety suits and respirators when spraying these herbicides and pesticides, Monsanto claims it is entirely safe to consume these chemical residues on our food. Luckily these are claims people are starting to question, and subsequently, they are now seeking healthier alternatives.

So, if you are in the middle of an all-out war on the invading weeds in your yard and gardens, here are some safe alternatives to the use of toxic chemicals: Pull them – while it definitely is a slower process, getting your hands dirty gets you outside and moving and more connected to your environment. If you’re worried about straining your back, we can help with that!

Mow them – especially around dandelion season in early spring. If you mow the lovely yellow flowers before they produce the grey floating invading seeds you will reduce the spread of the weeds.

Torch them – now we are getting serious!

Using a propane torch will kill weeds, but be careful and don’t do it when it is very dry or windy (please ensure you have a source of water close by at all times e.g. a running hose located within easy reach).

Put the kettle on – you can use the remaining boiling water for tea only after you are done dumping it on the weeds! Boiling water kills any plant and it’s cheap and easy.

Get out the vinegar bottle – If you need more proof just google “vinegar as weed killer.”

Yes, these options involve a bit more physical work; however, they benefit your health through providing exercise while reducing the chemical exposure to your family, pets, neighbors and the eco-system.

Schoolchildren name Hospice bear

A star to “A Flower Shop” for doing a beautiful orchid flower arrangement that is still looking beautiful! Thank you! - L. F.

The Shuswap Hospice Society Bear has a name! Classes from around the school district were asked to participate in a contest to name the bear, and forty-seven classes responded. The Hospice Directors had difficulty choosing the best entry but finally settled on “Sunshine.”

Sunshine the bear brings sunshine and joy to those who are ill. It was Mrs. Mainprize’s grade 1 class at Broadview Elementary School that submitted the winning name. The class will receive a pizza luncheon on Monday, May 26th to celebrate their choice. Mrs. Mainprize will also receive a gift certificate from a teacher store. Sunshine will be at the Hospice Teddy Bear Hospital and Health Fair, both in plush version and in a five- foot wooden version.

Come out to see Sunshine on Sunday, June 1, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at McGuire Lake. Bring your teddy bears to the Teddy Bear Hospital for a check up at $5.00 a bear. Check out the Teddy Bear Hospital, memory walks and health fair at www.shuswaphospice.ca.

Left: South Broadview grade 1 student Bella Toroc suggested the name Sunshine for the Shuswap Hospice Bear. Her class agreed and their entry won the contest! Photo contributed.

ELECTION BRINGS A NEW PRESIDENT FOR UKRAINE The May 25 election in Ukraine resulted in Petro Poroshenko being the new president. He is a billionaire who operates chocolate factories and owns Ukraine’s Channel 5 TV. He held positions in the government and will be able to stand up to Russia’s Putin like none of the other 25 candidates. As soon as he announced that he will run for president of Ukraine, Russia closed his chocolate factory in that country.

PUTIN TO CANADA: BUTT OUT OF UKRAINE Prime Minister Stephen Harper has called for a “complete reversal” of Russia’s actions in Crimea and has levelled sanctions against a slate of Russian officials and institutions. A day before the election, Putin suggested Canada’s physical distance from Ukraine meant it had little business meddling in the conflict.

Stephen Harper said outside of Ukraine and Russia, Canada is home to the largest population of Ukrainians in the world. Canada sent 500 observers to Ukraine’s May 25 presidential election.

FUNDRAISING PARTY FOR RADIO STATION The Shuswap’s community radio station is throwing a fundraising party at Shuswap Theatre on Sat., June 7.

Doors open at 6 p.m. CKVS 93.7 FM has been broadcasting since Dec. 10, 2012 from Room 30, Downtown Activity Centre, 451 Shuswap Street SW, Salmon Arm. Jeanette Clement is the station manager.

On stage between 6:30 and 9:30 p.m. on party night will be a fast-paced showcase of 15 local performers who have been heard on the radio station. Food and beverage from the Wicked Spoon Restaurant, Barley Station Brew Pub and Recline Ridge Winery will be available for $5 coupons. Silent auction, 50/50 draw, door prizes and memberships will be offered. You can record a station ID for future playing.

Only 200 advance tickets will be sold, at $20 each, available at Salmon Arm Stationery, 310 Hudson Ave, at the CKVS studio, and by calling the office at 250.463.5026. www.voiceoftheshuswap.ca. facebook.com/ VoiceOfTheShuswap TREES BY CENTENOKA TO BE CUT DOWN Do not be alarmed when the 19 trees between Centenoka Park Mall and the Trans-Canada Highway get cut down in late June. They are 32 years old, were planted too close to one another, and were improperly pruned. The city will remove them at public expense, and replace them with eight trees, the kind that are planted in other commercial areas of town.

SAMSON CLEANING SUPPLY LEAVES HUDSON AVE. Ken Davison has moved Samson Cleaning Supply to its third location in 10 years. Gale Paule Davison has moved her seven-year business Lady in the Tub to be within Ken’s business. The location is at 295 5th St. SW, across the street from Centenoka’s west entrance. 250832-4020.

GARAGE SALE OF STORAGE LOCKER JUNK A mom and dad downsized and put their extras in a rented storage locker. Then they moved away from Salmon Arm and told their grown children they could sell the stuff in the locker and keep the money for their work.

So the kids hauled everything to their garage, displayed it and had a garage sale on a recent Saturday. They had free coffee from Tim Hortons’ boxes. By 9:30 they put a sign on the garage saying everything was free. I asked why and they said they just wanted to get rid of it.

Seniors, look around your place. Why are you keeping so much stuff? Why put it in a storage locker? Do you want your kids to sell it when you die, move away or are too old to handle it? Start emptying one drawer a week, say on a Monday. Monday used to be laundry day in the good old days, remember?

MUSEUM NEEDS OLD PHONE BOOKS The Salmon Arm Museum at R. J. Haney Heritage Village has a huge gap in an important collection in its archives. Telephone books are a valuable resource to researchers because they help track people and businesses. The museum needs to fill the “missing” years in its collection of telephone books. If you can help, please contact archivist Deborah Chapman at 250-832-5289 or archives@salmonarmmuseum.org.

1915, 1918, 1919, 1921,1922, 1923, 1926, 1927, 1929, 1935, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1943, 1949, 1958, 1960, 1966, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1999, 2000.

ADDRESSES PUT ON BUILDINGS IN 1964 In 1964, the Salmon Arm and District Chamber of Commerce began a program of getting household and business addresses on buildings in the downtown area.

Before that, residences and businesses were listed in phone books by street names only.

At that time the town was one square mile in size, and was surrounded by the Municipality of Salmon Arm. The two amalgamated in 1970 and became the District of Salmon Arm.

FRUSTRATION CHANGING STREET NAMES TO NUMBERS In the latter 60s, the Village of Salmon Arm put out a call for a proposal to implement a directional and property numbering plan. The first person who tried it walked away. So did the second. It was a challenge because many streets stopped at gullies then started again on the other side, many streets curved this way and that, every street had a name, and, until 1964, not one building had a house number. The third person stayed with it, and in 1973, divided Salmon Arm into quadrants: NE, SE, SW and NW. The district implemented the directional and property numbering plan.

According to historian Denis Marshall, the district had 130 miles of roads and needed 800 new signs to make the system fully operative.

ETHEL BIVAR HATED NUMBERED STREETS Long time resident Ethel Bivar is quoted in Denis Marshall’s book Salmon Arm’s Historic Routes. She told council: “The whole idea is stupid; old names mean something, numbers don’t.” She could see no point in re-naming the streets for the benefit of a bunch of strangers who were “too stupid to follow directions.”

When the directional grid was implemented, all house and business numbers changed as well. Archivist Deborah Chapman says it all makes tracking businesses and people far too interesting!

WHAT DO YOU SAVE, OR HOARD? Old habits can hold us back, like saving things which pile up. I save pieces of paper on which I can write notes to myself. I cannot pass up a paper clip, a safety pin, a nail, or a screw. I gave up keeping shoes I no longer wear because they are too tight. Now they go to a thrift shop. I no longer save every plastic container from sour cream and cottage cheese. Now they go for recycling.

BUNDLES OF MAGAZINES TIED UP IN STRING Singer/actress Julie Andrews understood seniors. About 20 years ago she wrote new words to her hit Sound of Music. This is one verse about her favourite things: “Botox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a few of my favourite things.” sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

Letters to the Editor Credit due to music festival organizers

Thank you for the coverage of the recent Shuswap Music Festival. There has been a serious omission, though, in not recognizing the role of the Shuswap Branch of the BC Registered Music Teachers’ Association, which is the major co-sponsor with the Three Rotary Clubs of Salmon Arm. It takes a lot of work to make the Music Festival happen, and I would like to particularly acknowledge and thank Jane Hein, Carmen Stoney, and

Teresa Logan for heading the different disciplines and Ruth Anne MacKnee who is the representative for the Provincial Festival. At the Night of Stars, Marjorie Duncan was honoured and thanked for the many years of time and energy she has contributed to the Music Festival. Accolades also to Wendy Collins, whose vision and initiative started the Shuswap Music Festival fourteen years ago.

It seems odd to not mention the teachers of the many students entered in the Music Festival, and the many students who benefited from the expertise of the excellent adjudicators. This was a valuable learning experience and everyone who performed in the Music Festival was a winner!

Time could be better spent Reusable containers should be accepted

I am wondering if anyone recognizes these tags (two of which are pictured below) which have been done all over town, particularly on picnic tables, water park and play ground equipment, public toilets, etc. with a black felt pen over the past few nights?

This is obviously some small-minded individual or individuals with a very large opinion of themselves.

This will take many hours for town workers to clean up when they could be doing much more productive things for Sicamous.

Deirdre Robinson, Sicamous.

I am writing to point out that we have taken yet another step away from common sense with our recycling program. I refer to the fact that for the rest of this year, we can not put plastic bags into the plastic bags that we are forced to use for recycling. Does anyone see the disconnect here? Forced to use plastic bags but not allowed to recycle plastic bags. Hello?

Last year, when the city started forcing us to put out recyclables for curbside collection in specially purchased plastic bags, the city engineer was quoted as saying that city hall had instructed BFI to start giving out warning stickers about loose recyclables, with the intention to “start out in 2013 with the true commitment of the by-law.”

I wrote to the City Council at the time. Here is a quote from that letter: My commitment is not to any particular by-law but rather to recycling, after, of course, reducing and re-using. I and many others merely want to be allowed to continue to put recycling out in reusable bins,

as I have been doing since the program began, rather than being forced to buy and then throw away plastic bags to demonstrate our commitment to a by-law. I estimate that these bags add several tons of plastic to the waste stream. And let’s not forget this would require citizens to spend thousands of dollars on this additional garbage. I suggest that the city should not only permit, but encourage the use of re-usable containers for recycling.

At the council meeting at which this was discussed (March 2013), several councillors pointed out how well the program had been working up to that date. It should be noted that this was while reusable bins were being accepted!

Instead of a commitment to a by-law, let’s have a commitment to improving our program at every opportunity, especially when there is no cost involved. And if the by-law is getting in the way, then change it!

For a better Salmon Arm with an even better re-cycling program, Rod Charlebois, Salmon Arm

Last year a large red-tailed hawk would periodically show up around our house. For the most part, it would perch on one of the fence posts or sit in a large tree over looking our property searching for mice or perhaps even Duma the cat.

One day, to our surprise, it decided to hang out on top of our house. It started with the Junior Bean Counter waking up one morning to find that the hawk was right outside the window of his bedroom and on top of the gable covering our back patio. We all gathered in his room in excitement to view such an amazing bird close up.

From there it moved to the top peak of the house and remained there for a quite a time before finally flying back to the big tree. It seemed undeterred by all the commotion that my family creates when something like this happens and after a few days of feeding in our field and entertaining us it left.

verifying that it’s the same hawk; it seems our flying friend is back.

The only reason I think it’s the same one is because it seems very comfortable getting close to our house and all the noise surrounding it.

The other day we were having a family get-together when Mr. Hawk decided to show up.

My oldest son and the adults were all visiting in the living room when someone noticed something in the field. We couldn’t quite make out what it was other than some sort of large bird.

My other boys and their cousins were playing soccer on the back lawn. As the adults discussed what it might be, the kids must have noticed it because they all start running towards it yelling “A chicken!

A chicken!”

By this time, I had gotten my binoculars out and determined

mallarkey

by Daron Mayes that it was in fact a large hawk.

So there we stood and watched as a mob of six kids, laughing hysterically, scampered across the field towards the hawk.

I am not exactly sure what the kids thought they would do if it was a chicken or any other domesticated fowl, but as they got closer to it they suddenly noticed it was in fact a large hawk. At that point, we watched the kids stop suddenly and run back to the yard screaming, “It’s a hawk, it’s a hawk!” while still laughing hysterically, but with a degree of anxiousness.

It was quite the site from the adults vantage point and interestingly enough the hawk didn’t move at all. Instead it stood tall, probably wondering what these crazy kids are doing calling it a “chicken”!

Defibrillator program expands

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press The B.C. government is adding another $1 million to its program to place automated defibrillators at sports facilities, recreation centres and libraries around the province.

The machines are programmed to allow anyone to use them in when someone suffers a sudden cardiac arrest. When activated, they play recorded instructions to apply the electrodes to an unconscious person, then signal whether an electric shock is indicated to restart the heart.

Health Minister Terry Lake said the automated defibrillators can be used without risk to the 250-833-1120 Design Sewlutions patient, and save precious seconds before ambulance paramedics respond to a 9-1-1 call. The machines also instruct bystanders to perform chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

Dr. William Dick, vice president of medical programs B.C. Ambulance Service, said ambulance attendants respond to more than 2,000 cardiac arrest calls a year, and the machines already in place have proven their effectiveness.

“I’ve seen this myself in my practice as an emergency physician,” Dick said. “It’s incredible when a save like this occurs, and a person is Join us at our next revived and brought into the emergency departcoffee club. ment.

Letters to the Editor

Bike Month an opportunity to rethink how we design our streets and neighbourhoods

My applause to all the community leaders who worked together to make this year’s Shuswap Bike Month such a success. What an inspiration. And an opportunity.

Seems to me we’re seeing our communities swing into the steep side of the proverbial j-curve where more people than not want to live in communities that make walking and cycling a part of the normal fabric of life. Realtors take note!

Bike to Work Week and Shuswap Bike Month invite us to take a sharper look at how we’re planning, designing, and maintaining our community infrastructure. And what better timing?

Improving walking and cycling in our communities throughout the region now shows up as a priority in every Official Community Plan, strategic plan, and in some cases, dedicated Greenway (Salmon Arm) and Active Transportation (Enderby/ Splatsin) plans. Secwepemc Nation community band plans identify it.

Regional district area plans identify it. Municipal plans identify it. And most recently, the Interior Health Authority has arrived at the table acknowledging that how we design our communities for walking and biking will have a direct effect on how healthy we are – and how much public money we waste on healthcare if we don’t make a change.

So let’s follow the lead of Shuswap Bike Month organizers and push the envelope. We’ve said this is important in our planning. Now let’s make it a priority over outdated car-centric design policies. Let’s step up our collective efforts to make a difference by aggressively reviewing our community design bylaws, standards, guidelines, and budget priorities. Let’s implement Active Transportation strategies in all our communities. Let’s stop using “the hill is too steep” as an excuse. And there’s compelling evidence to support this call to action.

In possibly the most comprehensive argument to date, noted city

planner Jeff Speck draws together decades of research in the excellent book, “Walkable City,” to conclude that the growing demand for pedestrian and bicycle-friendly places is matched by a clear advantage in long-term economic opportunity.

Market demand, real estate resilience, new business attraction, and health care savings combine to suggest this isn’t just a good environmental argument – it’s one of the best design policy strategies we can make to ensure we thrive economically. In fact, Speck suggests there’s evidence to suggest that communities who are making this shift will have the economic advantage over places still dominated by old-school design that caters to the car.

And there’s good news – Speck points to a collection of simple design fixes that, in his words, “can reverse decades of counter-productive policies and practices and usher in a new era of street life.” And he’s not talking about expensive infrastructure, either. In many cases, Speck points to how a whole series of little fixes – many achievable with paint and a well-placed trees or in some cases just simple policy changes – can collectively transform our communities and our lives.

Through good initiatives like Shuswap Bike Month, and the already good work put in place by our regional and municipal community planners and political leadership, I think it’s fair to say we’re in a unique position throughout the Shuswap to go big on this. It’s time to get vocal in our support for community design that inspires walking and cycling between our homes, our schools, our shops, our work, and our friends. Anything less is simply not good enough. Thank you to all the Shuswap Bike Month organizers for inspiring us!

Sincerely, Phil McIntyre-Paul (Executive Director) for the Shuswap Trail Alliance

Steve Coogan (Philomena) has finally brought his beloved character, conceited and clueless celebrity journalist and radio DJ Alan Partridge to the big screen. When new management of the radio station looks to cut costs, Alan knows his name is on the chopping block and shamelessly points them in his co-worker Pat’s (Colm Meaney) direction. But clueless to his “friend”’s betrayal, Pat holds the station hostage with a shotgun and only trusts Alan to be his communication with police. Believing this to be his chance for a comeback, Alan takes advantage of his time in the media spotlight, hilarity ensuring.

Alan Partridge shows on Saturday, May 31 at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

Tim’s Vermeer is a documentary about inventor Tim Jenison’s journey of discovery to unravel the mystery of how Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer (“Girl with the Pearl Earring”) achieved such photo realistic images 150 years before photography even existed. Jenison, despite not being a skilled painter, sets out to recreate Vermeer’s “The Music Lesson” from scratch testing his theories that Vermeer used mirrors and lenses to paint such masterful lighting and detail, his results shocking artists and art historians alike.

This is OREO. Her favourite thing to eat is cheese and she loves to play in the snow and go on road trips. -

A secret for the sweet tooth

Last week my daughter called me after school and asked if she and her older friend could go for coffee at Starbucks.

Since Daisy is only turning 11 next month, I found the request rather odd.

“Why would you want to go there?” I asked. “You don’t drink coffee.”

“I know,” she said. “But I’ve been dying to try the Cotton Candy Frappuccino.” I’d never heard of such a thing, but whatever it was, it sounded gross to me.

An hour later I met them there. To my surprise, the place was crawling with kids, all sitting around drinking their pricey beverages, some of them nibbling on rice crispy squares, cookies or cake pops.

Daisy was almost finished her creamy pink drink but insisted I take a sip. Just as I suspected, it was gross.

“When did they start making these?” I asked the barista, as I looked at the menu board, trying to find it.

“It’s not up there,” she replied. “It’s from the secret menu.”

“It’s on the Internet,” added Daisy’s friend, who was drinking a Fruity Pebbles Frappuccino. “We’ll show you.”

According to StarbucksSecretMenu.net,

the vast array of extra beverage choices are mostly created by Starbucks fans, and as people create more ideas they can submit them to the website or Facebook fan page.

The drinks are then “skillfully concocted

by Starbucks baristas and connoisseurs from all around the world.”

“The Cotton Candy Frap is really popular,” the employee told me.

“But there are tons we’ve never heard of or haven’t made often, so it’s good to come in with the online recipe.

We can read it off your phone.”

Interesting. I had no idea. Whether this new trend was started by customers or the company, it’s become a genius marketing ploy to engage and hook the younger generation, and not one that I would have imagined working out.

I’ve always looked at coffee baristas as having a hard enough job as it was with all

The Salmon Arm Children’s Festival is almost here. Close to 5,000 people are expected to head through the gates at the Salmon Arm North Fairgrounds on Tuesday, July 1st. The tradition of a free Canada Day children’s festival originated nearly 25 years ago at Fletcher Park. Although the people planning the festival have changed, the original intent has not – to provide a fun, interactive, non-commercialized children’s festival to celebrate Canada’s heritage.

Hosting a free event that draws such huge numbers takes a lot of organization and, of course, volunteers! Organizers are looking for people to help out with set-up and take-down as well as to help with games and other jobs during the festival. Anyone 13 and over is welcome to assist and will receive a certificate for hours worked.

New energy and enthusiasm is also welcome at the organizational level.

Entertainment this year will include musicians, clowns, a huge medieval demonstration, 4H animal display, wagon rides and a hula hoop master performer. The ever popular 50 cent carnival games and a refreshed prize tent are back. Food vendors will offer a variety of choices for all ages; picnic lunches are welcome.

To keep our kids healthy and safe, this festival is a non-smoking event, and dogs – big or small – are not permitted and should be left at home.

The entire festival is funded through the support of local organizations, businesses and individuals with a humongous amount of aid coming from the Salmon Arm Rotary Clubs over the past five years. A silent auction is held on July 1st in the Memorial Arena.

If you or your business can help out, please contact festival organizers Karen Bubola at 250832-6192, or Kari Wilkinson at 250-832-8261; or visit www.sachildrensfest.com.

the different beverages they have to prepare on the fly. Now they have to cater to a never-ending recipe list they don’t physically have on hand?

“It’s the way things are going now,” my friend David said. “There’s a site called HackTheMenu.com that includes a ton of fast food restaurants catering to the weird stuff customers request.”

I looked it up and immediately checked out the secret menu for McDonald’s since I worked there for three years as a teenager.

Apparently we can now get things like the Monster Mac, which is eight meat patties in one bun, or the Land, Sea and Air Burger, which is a combination of a Big Mac, Filet-O-Fish and McChicken. I shouldn’t use the word again, but I’m going to. Gross.

Even though the secret menu items

by Lori Welbourne invariably cost more, kids seem to be having extra fun with their special orders by posting pictures of them on social media.

From a business and marketing standpoint, it’s truly brilliant. From a parenting standpoint it’s expensive and unhealthy.

“I think it’s fine in moderation,” David said. “Obviously I wouldn’t want my kids ordering this stuff daily.”

No kidding. I know I’m old, but I still remember going to the corner store on the weekends and getting a giant freezie for a mere five cents. We only had a few types to choose from: blue, purple, orange or white. There was no secret menu, there were no special orders and if it had occurred to us to take pictures of the darn things, we wouldn’t have had anywhere to post them except our bedroom walls. But regardless of the simplicity of the time and the small price to pay, they were still a sweet treat we’d get excited about.

Double gold winner at wine championships

Celista Estate Winery is celebrating the award of a double gold medal for its Inspired Madness red wine in the All Canadian Wine Championships held mid May in Ontario. Celista also won a silver medal for its Gewurztraminer and bronze for Ortega.

Some 1304 wines were entered into the annual competition. All wines are judged on the 100 point system. A double gold medal is awarded to the single highest rated wine in a specific category. Celista Estate Winery won the double gold medal for its red Marechal Foch wine called Inspired Madness.

Since 1981 the All Canadian Wine Championships has been considered the country’s leading wine competition. An esteemed panel of 14 judges – two from British Columbia, two from the Maritimes, one from Quebec and nine from Ontario – critiqued the wines for sensory components, varietal character and structural soundness.

“To win a double gold medal is a real compliment to the quality of our wine,” says Jake Ootes,

who with his wife Marg operate the winery.

“Previously we had been awarded two golds, eight silvers and ten bronzes in various U.S. and Canadian competitions such as the All Canadian, the New York Finger Lakes competition and the Northwest Summit. This double gold is a real thrill for us. Our concentration continues to be to produce the highest quality wines possible.

Competitions allow us to compare our wines to those of our peers and so far we are more than pleased with the results in building our winery operation.”

Celista Estate Winery is located at 2319 Beguelin Road in Celista on the North Shore of Shuswap Lake. The winery is open daily from 10:30 a.m.to 5:30 p.m. throughout the summer and fall. Wine tasting is free and visitors can buy a glass of wine to enjoy on the garden patio which provides a panoramic view of Shuswap Lake and the surrounding mountains.

You can find the winery at www.celistawine. com or on facebook; or phone 250-955-8600.

Little Mountain park is a centrally located and popular destination for walkers, runners and mountain bikers in Salmon Arm. The approximate 8 kilometres of signed trails thread and loop through a second generation forested area as well as climb to the summit of Little Mountain where there is a pleasant view to the west.

The park has an interesting recent history. Prior to the early 1990’s there were some trails there, but they were confusing, brushed in and weren’t signed or maintained.

Then in 1992, nearby resident Jack Varaleau enlisted the help of a few Larch Hills Ski Club members, including my husband Ian, to upgrade and build new trails with the permission and support of city council and church and service organizations. The key team

members of the Little Mountain Task Force spent hours working in the park in often wet, cold, dark and snowy conditions.

Tasks included designing the routes, cutting and removing brush, building trail surfaces, and naming and making signs to subsequently secure on to trees at trail junctions. The official opening was in June 1993 with the mayor, several councilors and about 40 people present. After the ribbon cutting attendees were guided on a tour around the park. I was one of those attending and remember the excitement and satisfaction of the day.

In the 20+ years since, I’ve walked in the park many times in all seasons. Spring is my favourite time, before the mosquitoes become active. There are various loops you can explore. One circles through a larch tree forest where the new, fresh green needles can be observed in the spring after a winter of bare branches. Other trails named fir, pine, maple, birch and cedar describe a dominant tree type to be seen along the route. For the most part the trails are wide and smooth and rated

easy. It is very popular with dog walkers.

Two trails, one from each side, head to the top of Little Mountain.

In the spring, wildflowers can be spotted along the rocky western bluff. A picnic table or bench at the top is always worth a stop to soak up the sun or at least to gaze down on the upper bench area of residential Salmon Arm with the blue lake and scenic mountains as backdrop.

There are a few access areas with parking. One is at the end of Okanagan Avenue.

From the Hwy 1 turn south on 30th St. SE and then left (east) at Okanagan and travel a couple of blocks to the end where there is a

small parking area.

Another parking lot is located just off 10th Ave. SE at the south edge of the park, between 37th and 43rd Streets SE. From the Little Mountain Field House on 30th St. SE you can also walk along the south edge of the field and enter the park from the west.

A pdf map of the trails can be viewed or printed from the Little Mountain Park page on the www.shuswaptrails.com website.

Salmon Arm is fortunate to have this park and trail system, now part of the excellent Shuswap Trails network. May it continue forever to be a destination for all who desire recreation and enjoyment.

Water Conservation Sprinkling Regulations Residents of Sicamous are requested to use water wisely in an effort to avoid potential loss of potable water supply.

Property owners/residents are reminded that sprinkling regulations are in force effective May 15th, and sprinkling using conservation is permitted as follows: Between 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

Even numbered houses water on even numbered days.

Odd numbered houses water on odd numbered days.

Regulations are in effect until September 15th.

Property owners with automated sprinkling systems are permitted to water for a maximum of one (1) hour per programmed cycle between the hours of 12:00 midnight and 5:00 a.m. on any day of the week.

Please help us help you ensure we have effective water management strategies. As a reminder, please note the following: • Frequent watering promotes shallow root growth that, in turn, requires more frequent watering.

• Your lawn can become ‘addicted’ to water. The more frequently you water it, the more water it requires.

• Lawns require only 15 mm (½ inch) every 2-3 days. You can measure this with an empty can or pie plate. This can greatly reduce the amount of water used.

Have a safe and happy summer.

Children’s theatre takes on a classic

Follow Alice down the rabbit hole as she encounters strange and humorous characters during her adventure in Wonderland. The South Shuswap Children’s Theatre Foundation is presenting two performances of Alice In Wonderland adapted from the Lewis Carrol classic with a modern twist!

This SSCTF production of Alice In Wonderland includes a cast of 25 local children ages 6 to 14 who have been working since late 2013 on developing characters and their acting chops. Director Ann Skelhorn may be familiar to local audiences from her work with the Shuswap Theatre including the recent award winning production of “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged).”

The first performance will be Sunday, June 1st at the Shuswap Lake Estates community hall stage in Blind Bay. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. for a 6:30 performance.

The second performance will be at the Shuswap Theatre in Salmon Arm on Sunday, June 8th with the doors opening at 1:30 p.m. for the 2:00 p.m. performance.

Ticket prices are $12 for adults and $8 for children 12 & under and seniors. Advance tickets for both performances can be purchased from Steamers Coffee in the Blind Bay Marketplace, and at The Candy Vault on Hudson St. in Salmon Arm. Tickets may also be purchased at the door based on availability. All sales are cash only.

Founded in January 2013, the registered non-profit SSCTF provides an opportunity for Shuswap youth to take part in performing or working behind the scenes in full scale theatre productions.

The activities of the South Shuswap Children’s Theatre Foundation are made possible through the efforts of a fantastic group of volunteers, grants from the CSRD, and sponsors. The stage door is always open to new volunteers and is currently seeking sponsors for next season’s production.

For more information about the SSCTF you can go to their website www.sschildrenstheatre.com, email shuswapkidstheatre@gmail.com or call Karen at 250-515-3276.

Opt for adventure for your children this summer and register them for summer camp. When they’re ready for the experience, spending a few nights away from home to attend summer camp is a great way to develop a child’s social skills and sense of independence. They are also sure to have fun, meet lifelong friends, and discover a multitude of activities.

Summer camps welcome children aged 3 to 17 for stays that vary from six days to all summer and include lodging, meals, and full supervision for outdoor and creative activities. Traditional summer camps generally offer programs centred on sports and outdoor activities, such as hiking and canoeing, swimming, soccer, and camping under the stars. They are also usually geared toward cultivating in the child an appreciation for the natural environment. All these activities give children the opportunity to develop physical aptitudes, team spirit, self-confidence, and resourcefulness, among other things.

Some camps offer more specialized programs and might be oriented around the sciences, specific sports, or the arts. Children interested in the stars and planets can attend astronomy camp, for example. A child more attracted to the pitcher’s mound or the swimming pool will deepen her interest in her sport at baseball camp or swim camp. And camps concentrating on theatre, visual arts, or music are perfect for children with an inclination towards the arts. There are even camps with an educational vocation that offer your child the opportunity to learn a new language.

Summer is around the corner, and registrations are open for MacKenzie Camp.

As one-half of this year’s directing team, I would like to invite you to be part of our community this summer! Wall-climbing, archery, adventure games, canoeing, fun- all this could be your summer experience.

Having been both a camper and a counselor at MacKenzie Camp, I can say with confidence that camp is a place where children and youth get the chance to grow, play and learn in an environment where all are welcome. We celebrate the world of nature around us and explore various themes throughout the summer.

This season’s central theme is "Pay It Forward." At MacKenzie Camp, we live surrounded by trees, animals and water. What they give to us, we want to give back, and what better way to do it than to spend a week outdoors getting to know your surroundings?

There is a week of programming for everyone from the ages of 7 to 16, including a week of drama and fishing. We also do overnight canoeing trips across Mabel Lake.

MacKenzie Camp is pleased to be able to offer camperships for families who may not be able to otherwise afford camp. There is still an opportunity to apply for these. In addition, we would like to warmly thank all donations received toward camperships.

I, and the rest of this year’s amazing staff, look forward to seeing you at MacKenzie Camp for another adventure-filled summer.

The Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club continues to be active with various tournaments and activities going on in the area. The most recent tournament was held in Kamloops on Saturday, May 24th with over 10 members from our club competing amongst others from the valley. A total of 30 pitchers competed in a total of six classes.

In the only 40 foot class, there were four pitchers with Tom Ingbrightson placing first, and ws the only one of our club playing in 40 foot groups.

Of the 30 foot groups, Matt Honkanen placed first, with Emil Foltan second in A, and Amy Kidd pitched to a third place finish in a large group of B players. Edwin Krieg and Clarence Juell placed second and third respectively in the C group competitors. In the Mix D class, Faith Juell placed first amongst out-of-town winners.

In Mix E class, we watched the oldest competitors compete at 95 years, amongst the newest members of the Kamloops club.

A special Thank You goes out to Terry Macready for coordinating the day’s competitors, and to Donna for the food service and lovely desserts.

Now the club is looking forward to our next local competition, in Vernon on June 14-15. We are planning to take part in the Senior Resource Fair on June 6-7 at the Mall at Piccadilly. Those interested in horseshoes are invited to come by our members’ table to learn more about this very old and popular sport.

Practice times continue on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, starting at 6:30 at the pits next to the curling arena. New members and visitors are always welcome to join in and learn the sport. For information call Doug at 250-8328520 or Faith at 250-832-9873.

White Lake concerns

As the strike indicator bobbed, Jim set the hook and a bright two-pound rainbow rocketed to the surface of White Lake–another great angling story and a happy fisherman. But what is really happening under the surface of the distinct white clay/sand-bottomed lake, rumour says, once helped to guide RCAF pilots during wartime, flying in the night across the area.

At a recent public meeting, there were several queries brought forward from concerned residents and a camp operator, regarding the health of the lake, and declining catches of trout. Senior fisheries biologist Steve Maricle tried his best to answer these questions. As one of the speakers representing the Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club, I came away from the forum with mixed emotions. Our organization has spent many volunteer hours putting the boat dock in place and refurbishing the spawning beds. As well, providing a viewing site and trail along Cedar Creek for the public to observe the spring spawning ritual; and putting a new roof on the gazebo at Bear Park campsite along with carrying out many patrols to the creek to help protect the fish from poachers.

But when you combine a growing population of residents along the foreshore (septic systems), beavers, otters, and a growing population of goldfish (carp), and too many naturally-hatched trout fry returning to the lake, it’s difficult to pinpoint a solution. There is a plan in place, with Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, to do a study of the lake, and recover tummy contents of caught fish, as well as interview the anglers.

As Fisheries Committee chair for the club, working with Steve on the beaver dam on the creek, and in the past, helping Al Bianco trap and remove resident beavers to give trout passage to their spawning beds above, I draw my own conclusions on the whole matter. On a good spring spawning cycle, there will be 400-500 spawners on the gravel. Each female lays approximately 1,500 eggs; and with predation/smothering, etc., let’s say 120,000 fry return to the lake. The Ministry knows this, yet allows another 45,000 fry to

be released into the lake.

A growing population of tenacious

goldfish, digging and burrowing into the cara/marl after aquatic insects, reduce that population; leaving 165,000+12-15,000 resident rainbows already residing in the lake on a starvation diet, and reducing the size of the already hungry trout.

Cedar Creek: Beavers have always been an issue, building dams and restricting access for spawners. It was once suggested that if the dams were left, it would stop migrating fry entering the lake; as well, it was suggested that fish will find their way around the structures. However, this doesn’t make sense. Otters: There are several animals residing in the lake. They not only feed on the trout and fry they can take, but also dig hibernating painted turtles out of the mud. One resident said at the meeting, that when she went down this spring to check her overturned canoe, there were 100 or more shells.

Some otters should be removed to save the turtles.

The beaver dam should be maintained by local guardians, and opened each spring to allow for spawning. The beavers should be trapped or live-trapped and moved to other locations, but little can be done to control the goldfish situation, and the declining insect population can be contributed to predation by the goldfish as well as large ski & pleasure boats and fishing motors creating an oil residue.

One must give credit to the concerned White Lake Residents’ Association for their actions regarding the lake. After all, they also took on BC Timber Sales regarding logging above the community.

Let’s hope, for the environment, and the health of the fish, their endeavours will benefit all of us.

Here and there in the Shuswap

Gunshots echoed across the small lake we were fishing on out of Bridge lake last June, coming from an adjacent lake and campsite. With the possibility of ricocheting bullets, we were concerned for other campers. At Headwaters Campground near Peachland, and Fernie in the Kootenays experienced the same type of episodes during this past long weekend; yahoo’s with a belly full of beer and totin’ guns, trashed campsites and left a total mess for responsible folks to clean up. BC’s Minister for Forests, Lands and Natural Resources, Steve Thompson, said it was unacceptable and something should be done. Well, Mr. Thompson, it started with your government laying off most enforcement persons in the Forest Service, reducing services to some campsites, and contracting out maintenance to others. No more Parks interpreters to take children on a walk in the woods explaining flora and fauna.

There are also few forest service persons around to check logging practices, harvesting, and replanting.

Negligence on the part of your government to have a guy or gal in uniform check on dilapidated culverts on forest roads that blew out the culvert at Dale Lake, sending a torrent of mud, rocks, and trees into the Shuswap River.

No personnel to service unsupervised pack-it-out campsites with pit toilets, like years ago. Where are the enforcement folks that could put a stop to the reckless behaviour of punks with guns? Hopefully you will come up with a solution involving more dedicated folks on the ground to deal with these situations.

ERIC WALTERS Eric Hubert Walters, born April 30, 1932 in Llandeilo, Wales, passed away surrounded by loved ones on Sunday May 18, 2014 at Mt. Ida Mews.

Eric is predeceased by his, wife Martha “Mati” (2007) and two of his sons, David (2003) and Richard (2009). He is survived by his sons, Glyn (Meghan), Gwilym (Tara) and Alun, and by five grandchildren, Ethan, Gavin, Laurel, Mati and Alice.

Eric graduated from the University of Wales in Aberystwyth in 1954. He began his teaching career in England where he met his future wife Mati. Together they immigrated to Canada and married upon arrival in Vancouver in December of 1958. After teaching stops in Prince Rupert, Port Alberni and one year back in Epping England, Eric and Mati settled in Salmon Arm in the fall of 1964 where they started their family and Eric began teaching at Salmon Arm Senior Secondary in Mathematics and Physics. After obtaining his Masters Degree, he began his career in education administration as the Vice Principal at Eagle River Secondary in Sicamous and was later promoted to Principal. Eric stayed at Eagle River until 1984 at which point he moved to the School District #83 Office as first District Principal and then as Director of Student Support Services. Eric stayed on at the School District until 1989 when he moved on to teaching Mathematics at the Okanagan College campuses in Salmon Arm and Vernon. Eric retired from his teaching career in 1994.

Growing up in Wales, Eric was active in sports including cricket and his much loved rugby. He instilled his love of sports in his five sons. Their backyard in Salmon Arm, known as “The Patch” in winter months, was often the sight of epic soccer, football, rugby, baseball and hockey games where Eric was frequently in the thick of things.

The dedication Eric showed to his family and teaching career carried over onto the soccer pitch. He was instrumental in the development of Salmon Arm Minor Soccer, as well as the organization of the Shuswap Men’s Soccer League and the long running August Long Weekend Soccer Tournament. His sons carried on his love of sport and also became actively involved in the participation and organization of soccer in Salmon Arm. Eric was honoured in 2011 as a local sports hero by Sport BC and just recently there was an announcement that one of the soccer fields in Salmon Arm will be named “Walters Field”.

Eric Walters was dedicated to his students, community and most of all his family. He will be greatly missed. A memorial service will be held on June 14, 2014 at 1:00 pm at the 5th Avenue Seniors’ Centre (170 5th Ave SE, Salmon Arm, BC). In lieu of flowers donations can be made to a community organization of choice.

Klaus H. Frenzel

December 30, 1949 - April 15, 2014 It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of Klaus Heinz Frenzel, of Salmon Arm, while in the arms of his beloved wife Geri (Byrne) after a long and valiant struggle with cancer.

His was a life that represented wisdom, skill and talents of many kinds. If you knew Klaus, you knew that he had a great sense of humour and a gentle demeanour.

You knew that he was always cheerful, had a mischievous smile and loved, really loved country and western everything - music, dance, lifestyle, art and history!

Klaus had a great capacity for love. He loved his family and he loved his life. He was absolute in his friendships, his partnerships and his relationships.

His children and grandchildren were more than blessed with having such a wonderful father and grandfather, a father who never questioned and could love openly and unconditionally.

Klaus will be missed deeply by his devoted wife Geri and their children: Lana, Craig, Carey (Phil), Burns (Terra), Bonnie (Rawle) and Robyn (Dennis); grandchildren Indya, Adrian, Ayva, Mya, Laron, Jayce, Jordan, Bridger and step grandchildren Jamela and Nathan; his loving mother Sonja; and siblings Karin, Ilona, Gert, Kirk and their families.

A celebration of life and tribute to honor this wonderful man was held on April 22, 2014 at the Prestige Inn, Salmon Arm. “He is no more, but live in thankfulness that he was.”

John Noel Bathurst McClelland “Noel” Noel McClelland passed away peacefully at his home in Salmon Arm, BC on Thursday, May 22, 2014 at the age of 79 years. He was born in Vancouver on July 4, 1934 and was predeceased by his parents Grace Hornosty and Robert McClelland. He is survived by his loving wife Lila of 54 years, son Bobby (Reg) McClelland, son Wayne (Lisa) McClelland, granddaughter Kirsten McClelland, great granddaughter Khyra McClelland, brother Aaron (Terry) McClelland and family, brother and sister-in-law Fred (Kathy) Schuhart and family, daughter Susan (Gord) Moscrip and family, son Terry Hilton and family as well as other relatives, dear friends and his faithful furry friend, Classy.

He will be remembered for his many years of hard work in the printing industry, having his own print shop, “Noel’s Printing”, and his dedication to the peoples around the world at Christmastime. In 2000, retiring to the Shuswap, he continued spreading his Christmas cheer selflessly until his failing health would not allow him to continue. His many other interests included fishing, hunting, boating, camping and spending time on his ham radio.

He will be greatly missed, leaving a legacy behind that will have an impact on many.

Special thanks to Dr. Breugem and staff, We-Care, Interior Health, Interior Respiratory Services, all the Shuswap Hospital staff, Shoppers Drug Mart Pharmacy, Lakeside Medical Supplies and all the friends and neighbours.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in Noel’s name may be made to the Shuswap Hospital Foundation, PO Box 265, Salmon Arm, BC, V1E 4N3.

A celebration of Noel’s life will be held on Saturday, May 31, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. from Shuswap Community Church, 3151 6 Ave. NE, Salmon Arm with Pastor Myron Crown officiating. Christmas themed attire acceptable.

There are more than 240 allergens, some rare and others very common. If you’re a sneezer due to pollen: close your car’s windows while driving, rather switch on the internal fan (drawing in air from the outside), and avoid being outdoors between 5am and 10 am when pollen counts are at their highest; stick to holidays in areas with low pollen counts, such as the seaside and stay away from freshly cut grass.
