Street Angel program recognized in film Arne Petryshen and Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff
A Cranbrook-based program that provides support for people living on the street has been recognized provincially and documented in a short film. The four-minute documentary was made possible by Community Action Initiative, explained Shannon Girling-Hebert, administrator of quality assurance and service integration at Street Angel, during a presentation to the Regional Dis-
trict of East Kootenay board of directors on Friday, June 6. “We have been funded by the Community Action Initiative for Operation Street Angel. We were awarded the gold standard. So they sent a professional film crew out to film Operation Street Angel,” said Girling-Hebert. Operation Street Angel is funded jointly by Interior Health, Community Action Initiative, the Ktunaxa Nation and Teck. The program is open 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, 365 days a year, in a
rented space on 14th Avenue North in Cranbrook. Vulnerable people can visit the drop-in centre for a hot meal every day except Wednesday – when the Salvation Army offers a free meal – as well as laundry and shower services, computers, access to a nurse practitioner and mental health clinicians, and other support provided by Street Angel’s 50 partners in the Cranbrook area. “We have between 80-100 clients eating on a busy night,” said Girling-Hebert.

The largest class in the history of the McKim High School will receive diplomas symbolic of the end of their school life Friday night at graduation exercises in the school auditorium. Fifty seven young men and women will come before School inspector Ivan Jeffery to receive a handshake and the best wishes of the school authorities for their future. On their behalf, Ray Turner will voice the feelings of the graduates as they leave school to begin life in a larger sphere. The Rotary high School Band will be on hand as will representatives of a number of organizations which donate scholarships each year. While the names of those who will have their advanced education helped by scholarships are known to authorities, it has been a well kept secret and it is probable there will be the same element of surprise when the names of the fortunate ones are announced at Friday’s colourful exercises. Principal scholarships are the P.T.A. Fine Arts Scholarship worth $175; the I.O.D.E. Scholarship of $100 for general proficiency; the high-
ly sought after Lions Club $250 scholarship in commercial, technical and vocational fields; the Local 651, I.U.M.M. & S. $300 scholarship; Kimberley Nurses’ Chapter $75 scholarship for those intending to pursue a nursing career; the Women’s Liberal Association’s $50 teacher training award; the Scandinavian Sisterhood award for proficiency in English; and the Legion award of $50 to a son or daughter of a veteran. Parents of the graduates will be guests at the graduation banquet to be held Friday evening prior to the exercises and also at the dance that follows. The general public has been cordially invited to participate in the graduation ceremonies which are scheduled to start at 8:15 p.m. The young ladies and men will be taking their leave of school life this week are: Carole Aikins, Bette Ann Alcock, Carol Annesley, Carmen Bet, Norma Bradford, Ronald brown, Hugh Cassidy, Judith Chisholm, Shirley Edwards, Bernard Engstrom, Mary Lou Faulds, Chester Gris, Allen Handley, Rita Howse, Terry Jeffrey, William Jenks, Bea Lou Joe, Garland Joe, Glen Johnston, Cynthia jones, Vernon Kuntz, Ray Lundstrom, Ruth Markstrom, Tom Masich, Joan miller, Ellen Mitchell, Donna Pat Morrison,
