CSRD on hook for Gardom Lake plan

By Barb Brouwer

market news staff

The province is in favour of a management plan for Gardom Lake, but none are backing up their interest with cash.

This leaves the Columbia Shuswap Regional District to cough up the $40,000 to hire a consultant on their own.

In May 2013, directors approved spending up to $35,000 in Electoral Area D gas tax funds to retain a consultant to development a man-

agement plan, subject to a minimum one-third financial contribution from the province.

At CSRD’s May 15 board meeting, Community Parks and Recreation team leader Marcin Pachcinski advised directors that funding will not be forthcoming.

However, the ministries of Forest, Land, and Natural Resource Operations; Environment; and Transportation and Infrastructure are willing to contribute staff time.

In March 2013, Friends of Gardom Lake, a local stewardship

group, organized a roundtable meeting of local residents, community and user groups and government agencies.

The objective of that meeting was to discuss the increasing pressure on the recreational lake, particularly since the province killed off invasive perch in 2009 and re-stocked with trout, which then grew to trophy size.

However, there is only one trailer boat launch site on the lake at Teal Road, a Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure lake access site

that has neither parking, nor washroom, picnic or garbage facilities.

Pachcinski says CSRD had been working with the ministry to provide these services at nearby Musgrave Road that has historically been a hand-launch site for kayaks and canoes.

But community members voiced concerns regarding removal of vegetation and that the site would become a regular boat launch.

Students join B.C. walkout, write letters

By Chelsea Grainger

MARKET NEWS STAFF

It was another week of action as teachers, parents and students in School District #83 continue to be affected by the ongoing dispute between the B.C. Teachers Federation and the provincial government.

June 4 saw students across the province taking strike action of their own, with approximately 20 students of Salmon Arm Secondary’s Jackson campus walking out of their classes to participate. The students stood on the corridor to the highway with signs opposing the ongoing rift between the BCTF and the government.

SAS student Chad Baker, said the students aren’t taking sides.

“We want everyone to know that we aren’t on either side, we just want it to stop,” said Baker. “When elephants fight, grass gets hurt, and we don’t want that happening here.”

Mikayla Arnason said the strike feels similar to parents getting a divorce.

“We’re caught in the middle,” said Arnason.

Although it was quiet throughout most of the schools in the district, students are still taking action in different ways.

Bruce Weicker, who is filling in as principal at Carlin Elementary Middle School, said an assembly was held to make students aware of the planned walk out, but most students discovered that a better way of protesting may be to write letters to people involved in the dispute.

Students were supplied with names of government and BCTF members who they could write letters too.

One anonymous student from Salmon Arm Secondary had already jumped on the initiative to write a letter, but theirs was directed to SAS teachers.

The letter was posted on teachers’ doors at SAS Tuesday morning, and outlined the student’s appreciation.

“What I want to say to each and every one of you is that I appreciate you and everything you do for your students,” read the letter.

“I know that all of this job action is because you love and would do anything to see your students succeed and be happy.”

The letter went on to talk about how the student aspires to be a teacher, but they are scared to be entering a profession that, they say, is so hated by the public.

“Teachers are a special type of people,

they are loyal, determined, hard working and love their students.

Some people can be taught to teach but others were truly born to teach. Keep fighting the good fight and, come Tuesday, when you are all out there picketing, remember that your students love you and that yes, you are making a difference,” read the letter.

The letter was signed, “Students of this year, last year, and all years to come.”

For teachers of Bastion Elementary School, the current lockout didn’t prevent them from enjoying their annual staff appreciation luncheon; they just had to make a few adjustments.

“There was a lot of debate whether it was going to happen this year [due to the dispute]” said Mary Preston, parent and member of the Bastion Elementary Parents Advisory Council, who has been putting on the luncheon for the past seven years. “But we decided it would be a great way to show our support for everyone.”

Numerous parents and staff brought in homemade meals for a pot-luck style lunch, and the teachers dished up and headed outside to chow down as they are leaving school

property during their lunch hour due to the government’s lockout provisions.

“We’re very grateful that they would still make the effort to bring it outside,” said Ingrid van Varseveld, Grade 1 teacher.

The Provincial Labor Relations Board was expected to make a decision Wednesday on whether the teacher’s wage rollback of 10 per cent issued for participating in walk outs was justified, but the ruling was made after the Shuswap Market News press time.

Power boat prohibition pending Continued from front The regional district decided to hold off on additional works because an environmental assessment recommended that Musgrave Road be kept as a hand launch site and not be developed as a fullscale boat launch.

“A management plan for the lake would be able to address these and larger issues,” wrote Pachcinski in his report to the board.

“We sent letters to all agencies,” said Area D director René Tal-

bot at the recent board meeting, convincing the board to support his request for a total of $40,000 for a management plan. “We decided we’d apply for another $5,000 and do it on our own.”

Directors were unanimous in their approval for his request.

Meanwhile, a 2013 request to prohibit gaspowered boats on the lake is still in the works in Ottawa, delayed by the need for increased staff response to rail safety following the Lac-Mégantic tragedy.

“While the restric-

tion for Gardom Lake has been approved within the department, it is part of a regulatory package of restrictions across Canada which still has to complete it’s final stages in their department and then must be approved through the Treasury Board,” wrote MP Colin Mayes’ assistant Tammy Martin in a May 8 update to CSRD. “We apologize for the unexpected delay but ask for your patience as the department has advised us that they are still actively working on moving this file forward.”

Mine review sparks debate

By Barb Brouwer

MARKET NEWS STAff

A request by the province to substitute a federal environmental review of a proposed mine with a single provincial review has raised concerns and differing opinions.

Shuswap Environmental Action Society president Jim Cooperman was given a guided tour in 2008 of the Ruddock Creek zinc mine, high above the headwaters of the Adams River.

“At that point they were going to do all the processing a long way away in an area that didn’t post any environmental risks,” he says.

“Since then, they’ve changed the plans.”

While he describes the plan by mine owner Imperial Metals of Vancouver as basically a good one, Cooperman says his main concern is the tailings to be stored there for the first six months of operation going into Light Lake.

Cooperman’s other concern is the fact the mine is located in a heavy snowfall area with a high likelihood of avalanches, events that he believes could destroy infrastructure and harm the surrounding environment, including Oliver Creek and farther downstream, the Adams River.

Those are all the challenges connected with operating at high elevation and ones that need extreme caution and environmental oversight – from both the province and the federal government, he says.

“The track record for provincial assessments is that they operate as a rubber stamp,” he says.

“As we have seen only too clearly by the approval of the province of Prosperity Mine, which

Ramsey Hart of Mining Watch Canada says the non-profit organization was alerted to the province’s request by the Neskonlith Indian Band, which opposes the move because of their traditional use of the area.

He will be asking Ottawa to deny the B.C. government’s request.

“We think federal oversight on key issues is really important due to aboriginal use of the land, potential impacts on fisheries and endangered species – all of which are the responsibility of the federal government,” he says, noting he is also concerned the B.C. timeline is too short at 180 days to do a review and 45 days for a decision to be made, whereas a federal assessment can take a year to two if it is done by a review panel.

“We also note that the federal government has held projects to a higher standard.”

But both the government and Imperial Metals say oversight will not be reduced.

“The substituted environmental assessment still covers what must be

considered under both a provincial assessment and a federal assessment,” reads a June 3 email from the Ministry of Environment, which maintains substitution allows the assessment process to be conducted more effectively and efficiently. “The province’s businesses, First Nations and communities alike will benefit from the elimination of the duplication involved in having two assessments for a single project, while maintaining strong environmental assessments and aboriginal consultation.”

Steve Robertson, Imperial Metals vice-president corporate affairs, agrees. In responding to Cooperman’s concerns, Robertson says the plan is to minimize “to the extent possible,” the environmental footprint of the mine.

He says the tailings, or leftover rocks, will be mixed with cement and be placed back in the mine. But, he points out, until the mine has been in production for several months, there will be no place to put the tailings.

A dam will be built high on the headwaters of Oliver Creek, right beside the processing plant to contain the initial tailings, Robertson

says. Avalanche control will be part of the company’s management plan, both in terms of building infrastructure and control measures, he adds.

Robertson says First Nations concerns are also being addressed.

Comments regarding the mine may be made to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency by the June 19 deadline.

A good time to make smart choices

Let’s not kid ourselves: teenagers don’t always follow the rules.

And when it comes to adhering to the legal drinking age, most of them aren’t patiently waiting for their 19th birthday before having their first sip of alcohol.

Graduation season is a time that should be joyous and celebratory, but every year Grade 12 students die in this country because partying got out of hand in one way or another.

With the Eagle River Secondary grad tonight and Salmon Arm Senior Secondary’s set for June 26, no one want to see a preventable tragedy take place.

Graduation marks a time of big change. The last 13 years of K-12 education is behind you, and you’re transitioning into the next phase of your life: adulthood.

Your teachers, school counsellors and parents have repeatedly told you that the choices you make now will have an impact on the rest of your life. The same logic applies to grad night.

If you choose to celebrate this rite of passage with alcohol, be responsible.

“Be careful and go out with a plan. What are you going to do and how are you going to be safe?” he says.

That includes ensuring you are celebrating in a safe manner, in a safe location with people you know and trust.

Most importantly, that’s ensuring you have a safe ride home – whether it’s a designated driver or waking up your parents at 3 a.m. asking to get picked up.

An important part of adulthood is making good decisions. Start now: be smart and be responsible before you head out for your after-grad festivities.

It’s all about getting home safe from a night of well-earned fun. If you don’t get home safe, it defeats the whole purpose of celebrating.

OpiniOn

Family fishing weekend approaches Each year, the BC Family Fishing Weekend is held on the third weekend of June.

The Family Fishing Society of BC, which sponsors the event, says their goal is, first and foremost, to encourage British Columbians, especially young people, to go fishing and have fun with family and friends.

Incorporated as a nonprofit society in 2002, the Family Fishing Society is mandated to encourage and develop new anglers, as well as promote and coordinate the BC Family Fishing Weekend.

The society’s primary objective is to encourage British Columbians to take up recreational angling as a pastime and, to enjoy B.C.’s many world-class sport fishing opportunities.

According to the society’s statistics, each year an estimated 25,000 people make use of the province’s threeday free freshwater fishing licence opportunity while trying their hand at angling.

Each year the society helps coordinate dozens of special community fishing events that attract more than 10,000 B.C. residents. The

The GreAT OuTdOOrs James Murray annual Salmon Arm Kids Fishing Derby, which will take place this year on Sunday, June 15 at the end of the Salmon Arm wharf, is one such event.

The Salmon Arm Kid’s Fishing Derby, which is open to all kids 12 years of age and under, has been going for 18 years and attracts some 800 people who come down to either participate or just watch the kids have fun.

The event has become one of the most popular annual events in the Shuswap.

Following significant declines in both tidal and freshwater sport fishing licence sales, the Family Fishing Weekend program was devised to help rebuild angler demographics. Initiated by the BC Ministry of

Fisheries, the Family Fishing Weekend was developed to promote the sport of fishing to B.C.’s residents in a fun family setting.

The provincial government approved an Order in Council to entrench the Family Fishing Weekend as an annual celebration of the sport of fishing.

Each third weekend of June, the provincial government waives the need for anglers to buy or carry freshwater fishing licence and any Canadian can try angling in B.C. within the rules without having to purchase a licence. Over the course of the weekend, the Family Fishing Society of BC and the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC work together to coordinate a number of special freshwater and saltwater community fishing events that annually attract an estimated 10,000 B.C. residents. It would seem perhaps, that the tide has turned– no pun intended.

Family Fishing Weekend events are all free to attend and open to the public.

Such events are an excellent way to learn the “how to’s” of fishing in a safe

and fun environment. There is also a plethora of educational materials and displays featuring fishing techniques, skills, the ethics of angling, fish species and fish habitat and safety around water that can also be obtained through licence vendors, government agents, tackle outlets and tourism outlets, as well as on both the Family Fishing Society and Freshwater Fisheries Society’s websites.

The hope is that once families get hooked on fishing they will spend time together enjoying nature and all that the province has to offer.

Each year the Family Fishing Society of BC and the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC, as well as representatives from the fishing tackle sector, sport fishing lodges and resorts, and both the federal and provincial governments, all work closely with community groups to make the third weekend in June a fun weekend.

I suppose the only way they could really improve on the idea of Family Fishing Weekend would be to make every weekend a Family Fishing Weekend.

South ShuSwap Health centre takes Volunteers keep soccer rolling big step forward The Sorrento & Area Community Health Centre has taken a very important step forward in its growth.

The program under which the health centre was initiated requires a community to fund the operating costs of the facility while Interior Health pays the salary and benefits of the practitioner and the necessary medical supplies.

To facilitate fundraising for the operating costs, the health centre had to create a separate society in order to obtain charitable status from the Canada Revenue Agency so it can issue tax deductible receipts to donors.

The new Sorrento & Area Community Health Centre Society has been established and has been granted charitable status under the Income Tax Act and is now able to provide tax deductible receipts for donations.

The health centre opened in November when Interior Health and the Sorrento & Area Community Association partnered to ensure health services became available following the inability to recruit a physician for the area.

As a result of the NP4BC program sponsored by the Ministry of Health, nurse practitioner Judy Deringer is able to perform many services including assessing patients, ordering prescriptions and diagnostic tests, diagnosing and treating chronic health conditions and referring patients to specialists.

Kathy McGill, a half-time medical assistant, begins work June 9 and volunteers will continue to provide reception services when she is not in the office.

The health centre has also obtained an MSP billing number which means it is able to use locum physicians to cover when Deringer is absent.

Donations are very important and can be dropped off at the centre located above Munro’s Sorrento Prescriptions, or by mail to the Sorrento & Area Community Health Centre Society, Box 193, Sorrento, V0E 2W0. Donations can also be made to the health centre’s account at the Sorrento Branch of SASCU. Receipts will be sent by email.

The health centre is open from 9 a.m. to noon Monday to Thursday. Appointments can be booked by calling 250 803-5251.

Carlin school’s afterschool soccer program has been hugely successful, with kids in kindergarten to Grade 6 flocking to the fields every Wednesday after the last bell rings.

“Families who live out in our area sometimes find it difficult driving into Salmon Arm for all the extra things our children want to do,” says Kimberly Boyd, whose two sons participate. “We are thrilled to have a soccer program right here at the school. It is convenient for our family. Our boys love the sports program and have learned so much.”

Carlin Soccer is organized by parent volunteers. When 65 students signed up for the program this year, Carlin’s soccer co-ordinator Heather O’Brien was short of coaches.

“We found out we have some talent in the school we didn’t know about,” says O’Brien, who put out a call for help. “One parent coach has played soccer for years and was happy to hear that there was a chance for him to share his experience. The kids love him!”

This year, four groups of kids are coached by 10 dedicated volunteer coaches, including five

middle-school mentors.

“Our parent and student support is amazing,” says O’Brien.

“The program couldn’t run without them showing up every week.”

O’Brien offers thanks to Kristy Schroeder, who shows up every Wednesday, hauls all the equipment out to the fields, then coaches a group of Grade 2 and 3 students.

“And the parents who keep the kindies on track are incredible,” she says.

Besides a minimal $5 fee, Carlin Soccer also relies on the Jump Start program through Canadian Tire and Sport Chek, to help fund equipment and team Tshirts.

“After three years of hosting after-school soccer at the school, the families out here have come to rely on it,” O’Brien says.

“We really appreciate the dedicated parents and coaches who make this program possible for our kids,” says Carphoto contributed lin vice-principal Chelsea Prince. “We love n Ava Niemi is learning soccer skills at Carlin’s popular after-school socthat our kids have ac- cer program that relies on help from parents. cess to the same things as kids in town, without having to drive so far.”

south shuswap First responders deserve thanks

Director’s notes Paul Demenok There are 15 special volunteers in the South Shuswap who are dedicated to saving lives in our community. In 2013, the South Shuswap First Responders made 280 calls in their coverage area which includes Balmoral, Blind Bay, Carlin, Eagle Bay, Kault Hill, Notch Hill, Skimikin, Sorrento, Sunnybrae, Tappen and White Lake. With an average response time of eight minutes over the last 10 years, First Responders are usually on the scene before BC Ambulance arrives.

First Responders are dispatched in response to 911 calls, but they

are not sent out to every call. There is a strict Resource Allocation Plan, set by the province, which determines whether First Responders are dispatched, and this is based on the information provided by the caller. In 2013, the most common calls were motor vehicle accidents, chest pain, falls, shortness of breath, conscious collapse, strokes, seizures, abdominal pain, cardiac arrests and allergic reactions.

All First Responders are required to complete a 40-hour Red Cross course to obtain a licence from the Emergency Management Association and the BC Ministry of Health. Re-certification must occur every three years, which includes a refresher course, written exams and practical skills demonstrations.

Licensed volunteers are fully trained to administer oxygen, CPR, glucogel, check vitals, defibrillate, bandage,

stabilize the patient, attach a cervical collar or stop bleeding. They also collect crucial information that will speed management provided by paramedics when they arrive on the scene.

If needed, the First Responders can call for a BC Air Ambulance.

The South Shuswap First Responders are supported by donations and taxation through the Columbia Shuswap Regional District. For my money, the $25,000 or so that is spent each year in supporting this volunteer group in Area C is one of the best expenditures made by the CSRD. Sherri Mitchell is the president, and Debbie Edwards is the vicepresident of the South Shuswap group. They strongly encourage all residents in our area to take a CPR course as minutes can mean a lifetime in an emergency.

Green Party fields candidates

By Richard Rolke BLack Press

The Green Party is preparing for the 2015 federal election.

Chris George and David Smith have been unveiled as nominees to be the party’s candidate in OkanaganShuswap.

“Both have experience and integrity,” said Greig Crockett, party spokesperson.

Married and raising a young family in Notch Hill, George has

operated independent businesses from Salmon Arm to Kamloops.

He is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree from Thompson Rivers University.

“The present government can’t seem to manage our social, environmental and economic interests together. It will take new leadership to balance the equation,” he said.

A retired accountant and consultant living in Vernon, Smith has worked 35 years in

the forest industry in Lumby, Armstrong and Salmon Arm. “The Green Party is the only party that understands how the economy and environment work together.

Healthy communities and quality jobs over the long term require strong environmental action now,” he said.

Candidate nominations are still being accepted by the Green Party, and the nomination meeting will be held in the fall.

Like many parents, Michelle Stockbruegger doesn’t like the idea of going public with her family’s needs. A friend told her, however, she’s been quiet long enough.

In October last year, Michelle’s 14-year-old daughter Kenna-Rae went for an eye exam because she was having trouble seeing. She was referred to an opthamologist in Kelowna.

In March, a CT scan showed she has a tumour in her brain.

“It’s big,” explains Michelle. “They want to get it from a golf ball size to a grape and then remove it.”

The complication is that doctors don’t want to damage Kenna-Rae’s brain by using standard radiation. Michelle has been told her daughter needs proton radiation, only available in the U.S. “It’s pinpoint accu- Kenna-Rae racy,” she says.

Stockbruegger The treatment, which Kenna-Rae will undergo in Boston, Massachusetts, will require two weeks of planning and prepping for the surgery, including creating a mask that will keep her perfectly still. Then there will be six weeks of radiation daily, Monday through Friday.

Although the B.C. health ministry will pay for the hospital care, Michelle and Kenna-Rae will have to stay in Boston for at least eight weeks.

They will need to pay for housing and food in Boston.

“I hate asking for help, I am kind of proud. It’s tough to say, but, like my friend said, you’ve kept quiet long enough, maybe the community can help out every now and then.”

If you would like to help, a fundraising account has been set up at CIBC, the “Kenna-Rae Fund,” transit number 00250-010-8392099.

Sicamous aims to recruit doctor

Featured Retailers Featured Retailers

Health care: Shuswap communities work together to promote area.

By Lachlan Labere

market news staff

A collaborative approach may be the way to entice physicians to locate in rural Shuswap communities.

This approach was on display in Penticton over the weekend at the Rural Emergency Continuum of Care conference, where a contingent from the Shuswap, represented by the Shuswap Healthy Communities Coalition, was attempting to sell the region and its rural communities – Sicamous, Chase, Sorrento and others – to doctors.

“We’re all going to be recruiting and helping each other in trying to present the Shuswap and our communities in a positive light to attract physicians, just get them to know that we are recruiting and also maybe, by being there, talk to them and find out exactly what our next generation of physicians, rural physicians, are really looking for and what would convince them to bring their families to these communities or agree to provide service to these communities,” said Pam Beech. “We’re starting to take very proactive

and co-operative action towards this effort because we know we all have the same need.”

Beech manages the Sicamous Medical Clinic, where her husband, Jack Beech, serves as the community’s doctor. Jack turns 65 this year, and Beech says he would like to ease out of the practice. But he’s reluctant to do so without a replacement.

“He doesn’t want to do that. That would leave this community without a clinic, because he owns the clinic,” said Beech who, for the past six years has been trying to recruit for the clinic.

One doctor who had planned to take over the practice passed away.

A husband and wife team of doctors who had planned to visit the practice wound up losing interest on the way.

Beech said they made it to Vernon where they were told “there’s nothing in Sicamous for your family.” For Beech, this emphasizes the need for a collaborative approach, between rural practices and their respective communities.

“Because I’ve been through this, I know it’s not just about what

we do, but how we, as a community, work together,” said Beech.

“It’s about our whole area recognizing where the needs are, where the doctors are needed, and everybody working together to support the concept that rural communities deserve to have doctors, and how can we best help them to get their doctors.”

Pam Beech Beech notes that what’s happening in Sicamous is happening throughout the Shuswap. The South Shuswap, for example, has a nurse practitioner but no doctor.

“The North Shuswap has two doctors, but they have made it clear they want out of the practice… so they’re recruiting as well,” said Beech, noting rural communities are often isolated in a sense that they do not have adequate (if any) transportation systems

Advertising that works

that can connect them to the services patients need. For those who have access to transportation this is not such a big issue, but for communities like Sicamous, with a large population of seniors and people on limited incomes, this can be a problem. And this, she says, can define a practice and the responsibilities rural doctors have to take on.

Beech notes the B.C. government and the Interior Health Authority have both recognized the need for doctors in rural communities and are making an effort to fill it. However, she feels more can be done, such as incentives to help cover the cost of tuition for physicians fresh out of university, such has been done to attract doctors to northern communities.

The issue of Jack’s retirement has come up on more than one occasion at Sicamous council. Coun. Suzanne Carpenter has become involved in the recruitment effort and, at a recent council meeting, stated the problem is global, and that “it’s a whole new world out there as far as what doctors want from a community.”

“So basically, we’re

going to have to go and sell ourselves to bring a doctor here,” said Carpenter. “We’re really lucky in our community that we have a local doctor who lives here, Dr. Beech, and whenever you see him, say ‘thank you,’ because there’s not too many places that have a doctor who stays around.”

Gifts that go straight to the heart

You could spend ages searching the stores for the perfect gift for Father’s Day. Or, you could decide to use your imagination and follow your heart to make your beloved dad extremely happy with a personalized gift.

Here are a few ideas to inspire you.

• Create a video in which your children take turns expressing what they feel for their father. They could even sing a song or imitate Dad. Laughter, guaranteed!

• Copy some digital photos to a memory card and save them on a digital photo frame. That way, he’ll be able to watch rotating images of his loved ones every day of the year.

• Is Dad a handyman?

Offer him a gift certificate from a hardware store, and go with him when he decides that it’s time to spend it.

• Give an outdoor enthusiast some of your time. Invite your dad on a fishing trip, a canoe outing, or a hike in the woods.

• Together with the children, compose a short text or a poem in his honour. Have it framed so he can

take it to the office.

• Create a themed album with photos of Dad with the children, from their birth to the present day.

Sunday, June 15, 2014

• Organize a photo session with the children and a professional photographer, and then present him with your favourite.

What are the origins of Father’s Day?

Father’s Day Gift Package

Shuswap MLA

GREG KYLLO Happy Father’s Day! Every year, on the third Sunday of June, dads are in the spotlight. This year, Father’s Day will be celebrated on June 15.

If you’re wondering about the origins of the celebration, you might be interested to know that it was created at the request of a nearorphan!

Father’s Day originated in the United States and was inaugurated in 1910. We owe the idea to Sonora Louise Smart Dodd.

Sonora was motherless and grew up with her father, who raised his six children on a farm all by himself.

In Dad’s honour After listening to a sermon in church on Mother’s Day, Sonora had the idea of asking that a special day be established in honour

of fathers. It was a way for her to pay homage to hers, whose birthday was June 19.

The third Sunday in June The following year, Sonora’s request was granted. The first celebration of Father’s Day took place on June 19, 1910, in several states, including Washington, where Sonora lived. In 1924, the president of the time, Calvin Coolidge, suggested turning it into a national celebration.

However, it was only in 1966 that President Lyndon Johnson signed a declaration officially declaring the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Today, Father’s Day is celebrated in many countries around the world.

Funds available to help make sports more accessible Communities can now apply for government grants aimed at breaking down barriers to participation in sport, through the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development.

Funds are typically used for equipment purchases, coach training or program development.

Local sport program development fund grants are designed

to help establish new sport programs or expand existing ones so that more British Columbians, particularly those who face barriers to sport, have opportunities to participate.

Applications are now being taken for the next round of local sport program development funds.

Playing it safe in the sun It’s It’s Summer!

Summer!

(NC) As summer approaches, many families are rushing outdoors to spend time at the beach, park, pool, cottage, campsite, or even just lazing in the backyard. Of course after a long winter, fresh air and sunlight on your skin can feel pretty good, but it’s important to remember that the sun isn’t always on your side.

Prolonged exposure can cause many unpleasant side effects like burns and sun stroke, so take a look below for some tips from Target pharmacist Bowen Chen on how to best protect yourself.

• Start with sunscreen – With hundreds of different types of sunscreens

available, it’s hard to know which kind is best to use. As a general rule, it’s best to stock up on sunscreen that has an SPF (sun protection factor) of 30 or higher and offers protection from both UVA and UVB light.

• Apply Often – Although sunscreen is one of the best ways to protect against the sun’s harmful rays, it’s only effective if applied properly. To get maximum protection out of your sunscreen, apply it 15 minutes before going

out in the sun, and reapply every two hours or more, especially if you’re sweating or swimming.

• Be sun care savvy – Stocking up on summer essentials doesn’t have to mean spending your hard earned money on expensive products.

For example, Target offers up & up brand sunscreen that provides lasting protection at great value.

You can also stock up on hats, t-shirts and umbrellas to provide protection for the whole family – all at great prices.

• Seek shade and stay hydrated – Of course the best way to protect against the sun is to avoid it all together. This is espe-

cially important for babies and newborns and during midday hours between 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. when the sun is strongest.

If outdoors, be sure to locate areas that are covered providing shade and always remember to drink lots of water.

• Soothe the burn – If all else fails and you find yourself with a sunburn, be sure to treat it right away with a cool compress, and soothing agents such as aloe vera or hydrocortisone cream. If you’re concerned about a burn, your local Target pharmacist can provide expert advice on the best way to treat it.

Health benefits of black cumin seed oil Black cumin is also known as Nigella sativa, black seeds and kalonji and has been healing maladies of the body for more than 2,000 years. Black cumin is a part of the buttercup family and the seeds are dark, thin, and crescent-shaped when whole.

Black cumin seed oil has been, and is still used for numerous health and beauty reasons, in dozens of countries throughout the world.

Originally, black cumin was

used mainly for immune system. The seeds of the black cumin plant contain over 100 chemical compounds, including linoleic acid, calcium, iron, copper, zinc, and phosphorous.

Studies show that by using black cumin seed oil, valuable unsaturated fatty acids, for example linoleic and gammalinolen acids, get into the organism. This allows a synthesis of important immune regulating substances, which have the

ability to stabilize cell membranes and inhibit inflammation. Thus the immune reaction is stopped causing illnesses. German research has shown that 70% of patients with allergic conditions – including pollen and dust allergies – benefit from treatment with black cumin seed oil. Black cumin also is an effective cure for skin conditions such as eczema, acne, psoriasis and boils.

HEARTWOOD CARPENTRY is a family business that specializes in yard & garden construction in the Shuswap.

You will be hard-pressed to find anyone who loves building and gardening as much as we do. In fact, one of our carpenters and coowners (Ken Fraser) currently serves as an executive member for the Shuswap Garden Club, and has given workshops on how to build garden structures. So whether you need a simple trellis for your flowers, a cedar shed for garden tools, or a bell-shaped gazebo from the world of Dr. Seuss—we can build it.

As a licensed builder with journeyman carpenters on staff, we make a vast array of other yard & garden structures, such as pergolas, arbours, raised beds, wood decks, cedar fences, “do-it-yourself” kits, and much more – and we deliver! To give our customers greater peace of mind, we include a full-year warranty on all our workmanship and materials. From the grateful and growing staff at HEARTWOOD CARPENTRY, thank you for your support so far this season, and we hope to hear from you soon!

Thieves steal eight Segways

By Tim Petruk

kaMloops this week

A Shuswap business owner is asking people to keep their eyes peeled for any sign of the eight Segways stolen from her business last week.

The single-person stand-up vehicles were stolen from Shuswap Unique Adventure Tours’ secure Scotch Creek compound at some point overnight on Thursday, May 29.

“It was secured very well,” company owner Barb Rivest said. “But, if someone wants something bad enough, they’re going to get it.”

Chase Mounties have said thieves broke into the compound to steal a horse trailer containing

the eight Segways.

Rivest said the selfbalancing scooters don’t have much value on the black market.

“The thing with these machines is they’re not that valuable to steal if people aren’t in the Segway system,” she said.

“The serial numbers are out there, all across North America, so you can’t get parts, you can’t get service [on stolen units].”

She said she’s heard in the past of stolen Segways being dumped and asked people to keep an eye out for the units or the white horse trailer with which they were stolen.

“Best-case scenario, people find these Seg-

Ootes said their focus continues to be to produce the highest quality wines possible.

“If we can find these, that is the best thing.”

Police said they believe the theft was targeted and was likely

committed by someone with knowledge of the business.

The loss is estimated at $60,000 and the burglary comes just as tourist season in the Shuswap is about to

Celista winery earns national double gold Celista Estate Winery is celebrating the award of a double gold medal from the All Canadian Wine Championships.

The medals went to Inspired Madness red wine at the championships held last month in Ontario. Celista also won a silver medal for its Gewurztraminer and bronze for Ortega.

Some 1,304 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 Inspired Madness, its red Marechal Foch wine.

“To win a double gold medal is a real compliment to the quality of our wine,” says Jake Ootes, who, with his wife Marg, operates the winery.

Tips for growing a gardener living Well Do your kids think peas come from a bag in the freezer?

Do they know potatoes grow underground?

Could they recognize a carrot growing if they saw the green tops poking out of the soil?

A lot of parents and grandparents are realizing many of today’s children are growing up without an understanding of where their food really comes from.

Perhaps you are a seasoned gardener or maybe you are someone who has just started thinking about getting your hands dirty.

Whatever your gardening experience may be, spring has sprung and now is the perfect time to think about planting and growing with your children.

I don’t have a lot of gardening experience myself, but I do try to grow a few things each year so my kids can appreciate how food is grown.

Young children have a natural curiosity about the world around them and gardening is a perfect way to tie in valuable lessons like patience - as they wait for vegetables

to grow, responsibility - as they take over watering duties and the value of healthy eating – as children are often more enthusiastic about trying vegetables they have grown themselves.

Gardening doesn’t necessarily require a plot of land or hours of weeding.

Gardening can happen in containers on a balcony or patio.

In fact, many garden plants such as herbs, lettuce, radishes, and tomatoes do very well in containers. Raised beds can eliminate the need for weeding and are great for compact spaces.

Try the square foot

garden method and give your child a square of their own to care for. This popular method teaches gardening skills without being overwhelming.

Watching a plant grow from a seed is like magic for young children, but slow germination rates can be trying for even the most patient child.

Plant a mixture of seeds and potted plants to help keep their interest.

Sunflowers and beans are fast growing plants from seed.

When my son was in preschool, he started a sunflower from a seed and was absolutely amazed at how tall it grew; he was so proud to share the seeds with all of his little friends.

If you lack suitable space to garden at home, consider renting a plot at a community

garden. Involving your kids in a community garden exposes them to an amazing variety of vegetables grown by many different gardeners.

Kids and parents involved with community gardens also benefit from the wisdom of other gardeners. Connect with your local food action committee, community or health centre to find out if there is a community garden near you.

If you have a child in school, ask if there is interest in starting a school garden.

Planning for a school garden can start now and carry over into the fall so that the school garden will be ready to plant next spring.

For information on school gardens see http://healthyeatingatschool.ca/.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF EVELYN GARBUTT It is with deepest sorrow that the family announces the passing of Evelyn “Granny” Garbutt on May 26th, at the age of 92.

Evelyn was born on May 24, 1922 in Pangman, SK. Her parents were Newton & Etta Minion, the family moved to Salmon Arm in 1936. She married Ronald Garbutt on May 22, 1946 and they raised their family and worked together on a dairy farm in the Mt Ida area; Ronald died in September of 1974. Evelyn continued to live and work on the farm with her eldest son Keith, his wife Phyllis and family until moving into Piccadilly Terrace in September of 2008.

Our Mom, affectionately known as Granny to family and friends, was a very positive, caring lady with a great sense of humour and a sparkle in her eye. Family always came first and she was there for each of us, attending every 4H or sports event, concert or special event for her children, grandchildren & great grandchildren. She loved it whenever her whole family could be together.

Family and friends were her lifelong pleasure.

She is survived by her sister Lorna Turner; and by her family that loves her dearly, four children Keith (Phyllis); Terry (Cheryle); Dianne (Cliff) Davies and Trudy Hall. Eight grandchildren and 6 ½ great grandchildren Jackie (Doug), Mitchell & Mackenzie Horst; Brad Garbutt; Kristy (Adrian), Alexis Dastur; Andrew (Stephanie), Eva Garbutt; Michelle Davies; Chris Davies (Nicole); Jana (Ian), Sophie & Sadie Brigden; Joel (Lindsay) Hall (expecting their first).

She was predeceased by her husband Ronald, brothers Harvey, Wilbur & Harold, and son-in-law Bruce Hall.

The family wishes to thank the staff and friends at Piccadilly Terrace; Dr. Plessis; Dr. Preto; Community Care nurses; nurses at SA Hospital; and all staff that cared for Mom at Bastion.

A Celebration of Life service will take place on Saturday, June 7th at 2:00 pm at the chapel of Bowers Funeral Home, Salmon Arm, with Jack Bowers and Rev. Daryl Auten officiating. A reception will follow in the Mountainside room, allowing time for family and friends to continue sharing memories.

In lieu of flowers, those that wish to can make a donation to the Shuswap Community Foundation, Box 624, Salmon Arm, V1E 4N7 for the Heritage Park in Evelyn’s name.

Granny is loved by so many and will forever be missed.

On line condolences may be sent to Evelyn’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Funeral arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

RICK HOOPER, AGE 55, SALMON ARM, B.C. Rick lost his life in a tragic farming accident on May15, 2014. Rick is survived by his wife Debra, his three daughters Chelsy, Meranda and Carly, and his sister and brother in law Lorri and Bill Lakatos. Rick was a selfless, loving, husband, father, brother and friend to many.

Rick grew up playing hockey and baseball and always had a good time at tournaments.

One of his favourite things to do was spend time at the lake where he loved to camp, boat, and waterski. Those who knew Rick would say he was the life of the party, yet there was another side to him that not only his friends saw. Rick was always there to lend a hand to anyone; friend, neighbour or stranger. The word “no” was infrequently used when it came to helping others.

The most important thing in Rick’s life was his family. The pride he had for his wife and daughters cannot be expressed, they were his world, they were his everything. And though they know the days ahead will be a struggle, they will never quit showing him how much he was loved or how much he will be missed.

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

YOUTH AGAINST VIOLENCE LINE

info@youthagainstviolence.com GEOFFREY DAVID THOMSON December 2, 1949-May 29, 2014 He leaves behind five children—Jenny Crosby (Terry), Jill McGrath (Niall), Juliet Orcutt (Trevor), Andy Thomson, Leah Reimer (Brent); four grandchildren — Amanda, Cornelius, Silas, Isaac; two brothers Randy and Greg (Angela); parents— Irv and Avalon (Loni) Thomson of Blind Bay; 13 Nieces and nephews; twenty-one great nieces and nephews; and many long-time friends.

Much of his childhood was spent on the family ranch in the Chilcotin, and later in adulthood, with his family in the Nimpo/Anahim Lake area. A real outdoorsman, his passions, were hunting and fishing, woodworking and teaching, though in later years inhibited by multiple disabilities. He taught Core Hunting classes, along with Firearm Safety and Wilderness Survival, for two years in Abbotsford and in Clearwater, BC. He was gifted in sales work and in teaching, both of which he did before his disabilities prevented that. He loved family, friends and his dog, Benny, his constant companion and friend—a true “care dog”. He suffered many years of pain and difficulties, but always kept his faith in God, all the more so as his suffering worsened. He had attended Broadview Church in Salmon Arm when physically able, but in later years was unable to do so. He passed away peacefully in Vancouver General Hospital, surrounded by his five children, his parents, one brother and one sister-in-law. Our very dear son, father, brother and friend—you are now in the arms of Jesus—no more suffering—how glorious!

Internment with family and friends: Saturday, June 7, at 11:00 AM, St. Mary’s Anglican Church Cemetery in Sorrento.

Memorial Service: 1:00 PM at River of Life Church, Shuswap Lake Estates, Pastor Reuben Pauls officiating.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Ronald Wallace McLaughlin on May 25, 2014 at the age of 75 years. Ron was born on August 24, 1938 in the village of Knob Hill, AB.

He moved through various positions of increasing responsibility within the industry and in 1987, Ron and a group of colleagues organized the buy-out of Mohawk Propane to form Premier Propane. As President and CEO, Ron led Premier Propane to great success throughout Western Canada. Ron was a member of the Propane Gas Association for 16 years and served as President of the PGA for 1 year in 1994. That same year he received the Lamplighter Award for his many years of service at a Provincial and National Level of the PGA. In 1995, after retirement at age 55, Ron and wife Diane moved to their lake front property on the Shuswap near Sorrento, BC. In 2001, Ron and Diane relocated to the Villas at Shuswap Lake Estates overlooking Blind Bay, BC, where Ron continued to play golf, cards, and curl with his buddies up until the last few years.

Ron had an incredible memory, was hard working, tenacious and always fair. He had a great sense of humor and the uncanny ability to sell himself to anyone with a great story or personal anecdote.

Ron will be greatly missed by family and friends, notably his surviving family: wife Diane of 54 years; children- Denise (Dave) Edmonton, AB, CharleneCalgary, AB, Shawn (Tami) Vancouver, BC; 4 grandchildren-Zachary, Christopher, Riley, and Trent; 1 great grandson- baby Jaxson, brother Bob McLaughlin (Martha) Edmonton, AB. The family extends their thanks and gratitude to Dr. Jennifer Takahashi, the nurses and staff of Shuswap Lake Hospital, and Dr. Guy deWit for their care, patience and compassion.

Donations may be made to the Parkinson’s Society (www.parkinsons.bc.ca). The date of a Celebration of Life for Ron will be announced in the near future.

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