IT’S TIME TO ENROLL Even though summer seems far off, enrollment for day camps and summer camps has already started in many districts. As space at camps and day programs is usually limited, it is important to talk to your children now and decide where and how they want to spend their summer vacation.

A multitude of camps propose many different formulas. Begin by carefully evaluating the personal needs and wishes of your child.

The first thing to consider is the choice between a summer camp and a day camp. Longer or shorter stays are usually an option at either one. The main difference, of course, is that the former includes on-site lodging and full meals, while the latter only includes daytime activities, according to a fixed or variable timetable. As a parent you will have to decide if your child is really ready to sleep away from home — and you — for a long or short period of time. If you feel your child is not yet ready to sleep away, in the care of teenaged camp counsellor and their adult supervisors, day camp offers the possibility of summer programming with a happy return home every evening.

The next choice to make is the type of camp that your children will attend. Traditional camps are centered on outdoor activities, such as nature walks, swimming, and boating skills, while specialized camps are designed to satisfy a child’s more specific interests through programs based on the arts, sciences, or sports.

Kids with learning disabilities can flourish at summer camp For children with learning disabilities, all the various activities that fill a child’s world sometimes appear as difficult obstacles to overcome. The same may be true for their parents! This type of challenge may leave a family feeling discouraged when the time comes to consider summer camp for their child.

A beneficial routine: Before enrolling a child in a specific summer camp, parents should ensure that the person in charge is familiar with learning disabilities and the special needs of children with this type of difficulty. The chosen camp should offer a certain amount of flexibility in the organization of activities and not have more than eight children for each camp counsellor. Camps that focus on competitive activities should be avoided.

The regular routine of most summer camps is reassuring for children living with learning disabilities. They may enjoy the security of a structured environment that incorporates outdoor activities and other outlets for pent-up energy and frustrations. Indeed, summer camp may be a tremendous relief for your child.

Without the pressure of academic results, exams, and homework, a child with learning disabilities is freed up to improve his or her physical abilities and work on social skills with peers and interactions with people in positions of authority.

Specialized camps: Camps dedicated specifically to children with learning disabilities do exist. These special camps offer programs that are usually centred on the development of the child and his or her inherent abilities.

Stitches through time

R.J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum, in partnership with the ‘Di-Versity Heritage Quilt Group,’ presents “Pieces of History Re-Stitched” on Saturday, June 21, from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Gate admission is $5.00.

This is the 2nd Biennial Quilt Show of the Di-Versity Heritage Quilt Group from Pritchard. The Heritage Group has a keen interest in pioneer womens’ lives and how their experiences relate to womens’ lives today.

The group started about 10 years ago and the current membership is 24 enthusiastic ladies.

The show features “BC Pioneer Women,” their stories and quilts created around the interpretation of their pioneer life. There will be an array of other heritage reproduction quilts the group members have created over the last 2 years.

The featured merchant is Di-Versity Quilting Supplies from beautiful Pritchard, BC and will be offering a variety of reproduction fabrics, patterns, books and quilt kits for sale.

While at the Quilting Show, visit the Shuswap Spinners & Weavers at the R.J. Haney House.

The Shuswap Spinners and Weavers Guild is an eclectic group of almost 60 members dedicated to supporting those involved in the local fibre arts community and promoting these creative skills in the larger community.

The group welcomes spinners, weavers, knitters, those who crochet, felters and fibre producers. The Spinners will be featuring displays and demonstrations.

The Shuswap Pioneer Collectors club will

also have displays throughout the Village.

The club’s mission is to preserve and share the rich local history in order to ignite interest in younger generations and bring back fond memories for those who experienced this history. The Shuswap Pioneer Collectors Club was formed in 2004 and has over 100 members and their families.

At the show, enjoy special musical entertainment from local violinist Emily Wark.

Emily has been playing the violin for three years and enjoys sharing with

others her love of fiddling. Emily plays traditional fiddle music from Scotland, Ireland, and Canada’s East and West Coasts, as well as pieces that she has composed herself. Along with street busking and performing at events, Emily has released a fiddle CD this past year.

Join story teller Dianne Jansson in the Mt Ida Church at 11:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. for intriguing readings and stories about pioneer women and their lives. These stories reveal the trials of life faced by pioneer

women.

Marjorie’s Tea Room will be hosting a pancake breakfast, and BBQ lunch in the outdoor kitchen. The Tea Room will be open for a special quilter dinner special or you are welcome to drop in for tea, coffee and other refreshments along with wonderful homemade desserts.

Inflammation is a health challenge in the forefront of the minds of many practitioners and individuals. Whether it is causing aches and pains in the knees, hips and spines of our aging baby boomers, or is the underlying cause of more serious health challenges like cancer and heart disease, people are looking for ways to live longer and maintain function into their later years. One simply has to look at the advertising campaigns and attention placed on anti-inflammatory drugs and supplements to know this is a huge part of healthcare.

What is also important to understand is inflammation is not just a concern for seniors. Even individuals who are young and physically fit and healthy should be conscious of the effects of chronic inflammation.

While most people think of heart disease as the “silent killer,” chronic inflammation deserves that title as well.

Understanding how inflammation works in the body helps people better manage this issue. Inflammation is actually the body’s proper emergency response to an injury.

Chemicals are released to increase blood flow to the region resulting in warmth and redness. Local blood vessels dilate to allow the passage of blood plasma (the clear fluid) into the area, resulting in swelling and pain from nerve pressure.

White blood cells (immune cells) then accumulate to remove damaged tissue and invading organisms. This is an essential aspect of health and healing, but can also become problematic when it is an ongoing, chronic process.

How, when, and why does this lifesaving process become detrimental to your health? Chronic damaging inflammation results from poor lifestyle choices that are not congruent with the healthy requirements of your body.

Incongruent lifestyle choices include smoking, excess alcohol consumption, a diet high in processed foods, chronic emotional stress, lack of exercise, recreational drug use, a subluxated spine and all

of the other habits most people know they should avoid.

If you follow my articles regularly you have seen me frequently return to the issues around inflammation. I write about this often because in addition to chronic physical pain, a state of chronic inflammation will lead to insulin resistance and diabetes, degenerative joint disease and arthritis (in the spine and throughout the other joints in the body), heart disease, obesity, cancer and dementia. The empowering aspect of this situation is everyone has the ability to greatly improve their health through simple lifestyle changes.

Consuming a diet that is full of fruits, vegetables, and wild seafood is a great starting point. Add generous portions of deeply-pigmented vegetables to every meal for their fiber and natural anti-inflammatory compounds. Herbs and foods such as turmeric, oregano, garlic, green tea, blueberries, and ginger contain bioflavonoids and polyphenols that limit free-radical production in the body. In addition, daily supplementation with an Omega 3 fatty acid is essential in helping to reduce inflammation. We sell a very high quality Omega 3 in our office called Genstra Brands Super EFA Liquid (or capsules).

As pain frequently accompanies inflammation, many people end up in my office seeking chiropractic care for relief. It is my job to assess and correct spinal subluxation (nervous system interference) and improve nervous system and spinal function; thus reducing pain and inflammation. It is also my job to educate our patients so they can be empowered to create healthy habits and make better lifestyle choices.

My goal in practice is to get my patients back onto the path of “wellness” and off of the road to “sickness.”

Vitamins & depresssion

There are different kinds of depression and they all need specific treatments. It is worth asking your doctor to include vitamins and minerals in his/her recommendation, as these play an important role in treating depression.

The vitamin folic acid that is used for preventing birth defects is now being linked to depression. A group of researchers from Tufts University in Boston, Massachusetts, found that the level of folic acid in blood was much lower among people with depression than in people who were not depressed.

Folic acid is usually taken in doses of 0.4 to 1 mg per day. It is important to remember that folic acid supplementation can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency, particularly when screening of blood is done using the count method. If you are taking folic acid, it is best to have a serum vitamin B12 measurement instead.

Many women over the age of 65 as well as people on vegetarian diets are low in vitamin B12. For depressed patients with vitamin B12 deficiency, B12 taken orally or by injection has shown to be beneficial. Vitamin B6 (also called pyridoxine) levels were also found to be low in some depressed patients. Although low vitamin B6 levels could be a result of dietary changes associated with depression, vitamin B6 deficiency could also be a contributing factor to depression. In another study, many women who were depressed, and while taking contraceptive pills, were found to have low levels of vitamin B6.

There was considerable improvement in women who had vitamin B6 deficiency after they were treated with 2mg of pyridoxine twice a day for two months.

Magnesium is a mineral that is frequently found to be low in people with depression. When treated with a proper magnesium dose, these patients had a rapid improvement in their symptoms. Magnesium treatment also helped to ease the chronic muscle pain that usually accompanies depression. More recently, we have all heard about how low levels of vitamin D (the sunshine vitamin) are linked to depression, so be sure to include this vitamin in your diet and enjoy the sunshine in the sunny Shuswap.

Community health care conference

Three small, rural communities of the Shuswap region worked together to recruit family practice physicians and promote the Shuswap lifestyle at a Rural Emergency Continuum of Care Conference in Penticton recently. Hosting the recruitment booth were Carol Hoffman, representing North Shuswap Health Centre Society; George Landry, from the South Shuswap Health Services Society; Pam Beech on behalf of the Sicamous Medical Clinic; and Michelle Wolff from the Sicamous and District Chamber of Commerce. Representatives from Sorrento were unable to participate. Each community has unique physician staffing needs to meet in order to achieve sustainable primary care services and to move forward.

The North Shuswap Health Centre Society (NSHCS) has been working since 2011 to recruit a part-time or full-time physician for the health centre in Scotch Creek. In 2011, a physician was sought to work alongside two family practice physicians already in Scotch Creek, but now in 2014, full-time replacement is required for the retiring physicians. The community is once again in danger of having no family practice care at the health centre, with patients forced to travel to Chase, Salmon Arm or Kamloops for their routine health needs.

NSHCS is pleased to announce that the ‘one week in a Shuswap Lakefront home’ donated by Lee Creek Ranch was won by Marilyn Oishi, a nurse practitioner attending the conference.

The South Shuswap Health Services Society (SSHSS) is actively recruiting physicians to develop primary care services in a clinic space in Blind Bay, a central location in the South Shuswap. SSHSS was formed a year ago and is striving to realize its mandate to bring “Health Care Closer to Home.� With a vision to work on a regional basis, SSHSS attended the Together Shuswap (Moving Forward Together) workshop in January, putting forth the opportunity to form a regional group to collectively promote primary health and wellness requirements in the Shuswap.

In March, SSHSS attended the Rural Physicians Conference in Banff, promoting the Shuswap and the need for physicians in the various Shuswap communities. At the invitation of SSHSS, Sicamous and NSHCS joined the efforts in Penticton.

The South Shuswap communities have increased in population since the mid 1990’s by 62% to 7,800; and there is currently one health service provider – nurse practitioner Judy Deringer – situated in the Sorrento and Area Community Health Center. Sorrento is also looking for a physician to work with Judy. SSHSS is in discussion with one physician moving to the area in the summer of 2015, and his commitment is contingent on finding other physicians to join the clinic as well as the completion of a needs assessment for the South Shuswap.

The Sicamous Medical Clinic is actively recruiting at least one physician to boost staff for Sicamous and area, providing relief for the current 1.4 physicians and better access to services for the local area. This is the second recruitment

effort for Sicamous in the past 7 years.

With the technical support from the Sicamous and District Chamber of Commerce and the C S R D ’s Shuswap Tourism materials, the booth attracted significant attention and many inquiries while showcasing the Shuswap’s

outstanding four-season, lake, mountain, river valley, agricultural and lifestyle settings and activities.

Sicamous is pleased to announce that the complimentary night at Owlhead Creek Bed & Breakfast and pass for two at Hyde Mountain on Mara Lake Golf Course donated by participating businesses was won by Drs. Cynthia and Ian Lau. Photo contributed.

SENIOR ESCAPES FROM NURSING HOME An 89-year-old vet in a nursing home in England was told he could not go to France for the 70th anniversary of the landings that changed the course of the Second World War in Normandy because there was no more room on the official trip. A search began when he was found missing from the home. Sussex police were called. Wearing a raincoat over his war medals and jacket, he had taken a bus and ferry, and got to the ceremony.

A younger vet called the nursing home late that night to say he met the missing veteran on a coach to France and both were safe and well in a hotel in France.

When he returned home two days later and was interviewed by reporters, he said it was worth every penny.

FRANCE’S SKIES LOADED WITH CHEMTRAILS When glued to the television screen for the commemoration ceremony of the 70th anniversary of D-Day at the Normandy beach, France on Friday, June 6, 2014, my eyes were often drawn to the chemtrails in the sky.

The Queen, Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin, Angela Merkel, Stephen Harper, François Hollande and many other leaders were also in attendance to pay tribute to the 200,000 British, American and Canadian men – and the handful of women – who took part. But my eyes were drawn to the skies.

SHOP AT THE BEST FARMER’S MARKET Sorrento Village Farmers’ Market will be having Rhubarb Days tomorrow, Sat., June 14 with information, recipes and rhubarb products. The market takes place Saturdays from 8-12.

The market was named the Best Small Farmer’s Market 2013 by the B.C. Association of Farmers’ Markets.

It won for many reasons: it has a good mix of products; loads of fresh produce, innovative craft and personal care products, entertainment most weekends, a happy, caring atmosphere, accessibility, the friendliest vendors, an amazing market board, and manager Vicki Squire. It also has the best customers: loyal, generous and part of the family.

QUILTERS, TAKE AN INDIGO DYEING WORKSHOP Fibre artist Thomas Roach of Vancouver will lead an indigo-dyeing workshop at Sorrento Centre five mornings, 9:45 to 12:45, from June 30 to July 4. For registration information call Sorrento Centre at 250-675-2421 or go to www.sorrento-centre.bc.ca.

SENIORS BRING TOO MUCH TO A POTLUCK I enjoy potluck meals. I could go to one a couple of times a week. But I must learn to take less food. At a recent one mainly for seniors, I took enough green salad for 20. The dessert table was loaded with pies, squares and cakes. A woman who lives in a residence that serves meals bought and chopped enough fruit for 20. Large serving bowls and platters overfilled the serving tables.

I think singles and couples should bring enough for four. What do you think? As we age we eat less, but we still bring the same amount of food to a potluck.

FREE METHODISTS, PENTECOSTALS SWAPPED BUILDINGS The Free Methodist and Pentecostal churches in Salmon Arm switched buildings in December 1982.

Rev. Joe James and his wife Marilyn moved to Salmon

Arm in 1972 and held Free Methodist services in the basement of their home. Previous to this, Joe’s father had been the first pastor of the Free Methodist Church in Grindrod in 1942. When a congregation was established in Salmon Arm, services were moved from Joe and Marilyn’s home to the gymnasium of Shuswap School.

As the congregation grew, property was purchased at the corner of 30 St. and 10 Ave. SE, commonly known as Five Corners. A lovely large church was built, with a two-person baptismal area at the very front and a sophisticated audio-visual area in the balcony.

In the early 80s, interest rates climbed to 22 per cent, and the small but growing Free Methodist congregation found it a financial hardship to make payments. In the meantime, the Pentecostal Church was outgrowing its building on Shuswap St. SW, two doors from the Husky gas station. After many meetings, the two congregations switched buildings in December 1982. Once the congregations had moved, Joe James stayed and helped complete the renovations needed before being appointed to Abbotsford. In 1983, Rev. Sheldon Carlson arrived to be the minister of Crossroads Free Methodist Church and found the congregation was very happy to be downtown.

If you can add to this history, please contact me at 250832-4831 or sallys1@telus.net.

FREE METHODISTS START LAKESIDE CHURCH In 1996 the Crossroads Free Methodist Church started a second congregation, Lakeside Community Church, designed to reach young families. As it grew, it moved to Hillcrest Elementary School, and in 2013 to the space across from the Salmon Arm post office, a former pub, with an entrance at the rear of the building. Its website states: “We are a friendly, upbeat and relevant place where you can come to discover and worship God.” www.lakesidecommunitychurch.ca SHIRLEY & ROB’S DREAM FOR DONKEYS IS REALIZED Shirley Mainprize and Rob Miller adopted a baby donkey in 1998 and they were gifted with his ailing mother.

That made them aware that donkeys can live until age 50 if they receive the proper care and they can often outlive their owner. As a result of their long life span there is a greater chance of them being neglected or forgotten out in a field. Shirley and Rob started a donkey refuge on their farm in the Turtle Valley in 2007. Word spread and they were given a few more rescued donkeys. Six years ago they had seven. They appealed for donations to cover feed, bedding and vet bills, but the donkeys were arriving faster than the funds.

Leanne Rutley, a lawyer in Vernon, called and offered her services for free to assist with the forming of a society and receiving registered charity status which would allow the society to provide official tax receipts to donors.

Chris Harris approached to help the donkeys by becoming the society’s accountant and as well as one of the board of directors.

The Society now has 70 donkeys in its care and 12 waiting to get in. Five paid staff are employed. The society purchased a farm close to Rob and Shirley’s farm and has started construction on a barn that will house the 70 donkeys. The barn can be expanded as more donkeys come in. Regulations state that the property has a limit of

200 donkeys. The first donation for the barn was $10,000 from a young family in Nova Scotia.

DONKEY SOCIETY HAS ONGOING FUNDRAISING Twenty volunteers, including Rob and Shirley, assist with raising funds for the donkeys. On June 7 they organized the 6th annual Donkey Day celebration on the new farm at 7877 Skimikin Rd. Seven donkeys and one mule were brought from Rob and Shirley’s farm for the day and many people went into the pen to pat them. Ron from Alberta gave free buggy rides pulled by his four ‘Mammoth’ donkeys. Salmon Arm and North Shuswap Lions Clubs barbecued lunch as a fundraiser for the society. Pie slices, ice-cream, donkey T-shirts and collectibles were sold by volunteers. Sponsorships were taken, $50 per year per donkey. The resident’s council at Bastion Place continues to sponsor three donkeys who reside at the donkey refuge.

News and pictures from the donkey refuge can be found at www.turtlevalleydonkeyrefuge.com. If you have questions or wish to make a donation, write to donkeyrefuge@gmail.com or phone 250-679-2778.

STATIN USERS EAT BAD FOOD AND GET FAT Eat whatever you like. You won’t have a heart attack.

Many Americans who take cholesterol-lowering statin drugs seem to believe they can eat plenty of unhealthy foods without suffering any consequences, a new study suggests.

Researchers found that people who took statins in 2009-2010 consumed more fat and calories than those who took the drugs 10 years earlier. There was no similar increase in fat and calorie intake among people who didn’t take statins, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) researchers said.

NEW ROUTE FROM TRANS CANADA TO FERRY When I travel to Victoria, I take the exit off the freeway that has a sign with picture of a big boat. It takes me through Langley to Tsawwassen. Now there’s a new route that was developed in 2013 and is truly amazing. It’s called the South Fraser Perimeter Rd. Cruising on the T.C.H. you pick up EXIT 53 for 176th St., and a quickn’-easy exit to Route #17 which is the S.F.P.R. Doublelane, only one or two stoplights, and little-or-no-traffic to the ferry terminal. Same coming back; wonderful!

LOCAL WOMAN REQUESTED COLUMN BY E-MAIL In mid-January, on a week when this paper is delivered to Revelstoke, I asked if anyone from there would like to receive this column by e-mail every week. Wendy, a Salmon Arm woman, asked if I would send it to her. She explained that she always clips articles and sends them to her five children from their hometown, and friends who spend summers in their cottages on the lake. “Your articles are famous! Keep up the great work!”

Two months later, after she emailed the clippings from this column, she sent a big thank you and an XO. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

Sunscreen can be a smokescreen

Sunscreen is unlikely to stop you from being sunburned, or to reduce your risk of developing skin cancer.

That’s because most people don’t apply it properly, and stay in the sun too long.

The solution?

Slather on sunscreen daily and reapply it often, especially if you’ve been in the water. How much? At least enough to fill a shot glass.

Good job!

Tim Hortons’ Camp Day last Wednesday raised $11.8 million from Canadian and United States coffee sales, as well as in-store and text campaigns. The monies raised will be put towards sending over 17,000 kids to camp.

Don’t cry over spilled milk – blame your cousin

We’ve heard it said “Kids are sponges.”

When we really dissect what this means, it is almost scary. As a parent or coach, it makes you realize that kids often take you literally when you say something; so choose your words wisely!

My boys enjoy sports, and it isn’t just playing sports, it’s also following their favourite teams and players to the point where they know the sleeping habits, shoe size and middle name of every single player from every sport.

Recently, they had read about a basketball player in the NBA that would drink lots of milk and also hang upside down when he was a kid in order to grow. As the story goes (and I haven’t verified any of this with anyone older than 14), the player’s parents were both below average height, but their son felt he needed to be tall if he wanted to realize his dream of playing in the NBA. I am not sure if there is any science behind it, but his dad told him if he wanted to grow to be tall, he needed to drink lots of milk and hang upside down. I am sure his dad was simply making an offthe- cuff comment, but as we know, kids do take you at your word.

It ends up that the

basketball player did exactly what his dad told him to do, and he grew to be 6’3,” far exceeding what he thought was genetically possible based on his parents’ heights, and eventually made it to the NBA. My oldest son was telling this story to a nephew of mine who is 10 years old. The only problem was some of the details were left out or misunderstood.

The other day my brother-in-law walked into their living room to find my nephew upside down, hanging off the couch trying to drink milk at the same time. My brother-inlaw asked him what in the world was he doing, and of course he explained that his cousin had told him he needed to drink milk upside down in order to grow!

Thankfully, my brother-in-law arrived in time to stop the craziness and avoid what was sure to be a face full of milk, some choking and a white puddle on the carpet.

The next time my nephew came over, my boys clarified that the milk and the hanging upside down didn’t have to be done at the same time.

“Ohhhhh!” my nephew exclaimed. “I thought they had to be done together!”

CITY OF SALMON ARM

Tired of standing in long line-ups when you pay your Property Taxes?

Here are some options to eliminate waiting in line: Post-Dated Cheques - You can pay your City of Salmon Arm property taxes and utilities with a personalized cheque post-dated to the due date. This allows City staff time to check your payment and Home Owner Grant, if applicable, and to contact you prior to the due date if there are any problems or questions.

Your post-dated payment is deposited to the Bank on the cheque date.

Telephone & Internet Banking - Most financial institutions accept utility and property tax payments through telephone and internet banking. Although each bank differs, they all provide a Property Tax and a Utility option for the City of Salmon Arm: For property taxes, use the Property Tax option and the last eight digits of the roll number (e.g. 01234567) which is printed at the top right hand corner of your tax notice. To pay utilities, use the City of Salmon Arm Utilities option, and use the thirteen digit account number from your utility bill. (e.g.

0001234567000). Use no spaces, decimals, or dashes in the account number.

Payment Drop Box - There is a payment drop box located to the left of the front doors of the City Hall. Place your cheque and/or Home Owner Grant in an envelope and drop it in the box. Your payment will be processed promptly each morning (Monday to Friday). Any payments put into the drop box after 5:00 pm on July 2, 2014, will be considered next day payment and subject to penalty.

Your Mortgagee (Bank) Pays Your Taxes - If your Mortgagee pays your taxes and you are eligible for a Home Owner Grant, avoid a penalty by claiming your Grant as soon as you receive your tax notice.

To avoid line ups or penalties associated with problems with your Home Owner Grant, remit your Grant application to the City as soon as you receive your tax notice. Don’t wait until the tax due date! If you are unable to pay your property taxes, you should still claim your Home Owner Grant on or before the due date to avoid penalty on the Grant portion of your taxes.

Claim Your Home Owner Grant Online The City of Salmon Arm is pleased to offer an electronic Home Owner Grant application. Visit the City’s website at http://www.salmonarm.ca click “On-Line Services” and “Home Owner Grant” link and follow the instructions to apply and submit your application.

2014 TAX DUE DATE – JULY 2, 2014 5:00 PM (Open until 5:00 pm on July 2 only) For more information City of Salmon Arm Tax Department 500 2 Avenue NE – Box 40, Salmon Arm, BC V1E 4N2 Phone 250-803-4000 • http://www.salmonarm.ca

workers picking hops in a field in Agassiz, Leslie Blain (my father) figured out there was better money to be made.

“It was so hot and everyone always always wanted a drink.

I thought maybe I should sell drinks. I got a gallon jug, wrapped it up with a wet sack to keep it a little colder. I made lemonade or grape, any kind of juice. One time I made more than the rest of my family made together.”

As lucrative as it was, it didn’t last long as an adult picked up on the idea and came by in a vehicle with more selection.

He was born to Molly and Wilford Blain on June 11, 1934 “at the old homestead” in Ashcroft. He was the fifth child and many more would follow. Altogether 13 children would live to adulthood, four children died in infancy.

One of his favourite early memories is going fishing with old Jim Dry. “Up from our house about a kilometre was a bridge. Jim Dry lived just near the bridge.

Every day we would go fishing. I used a willow stick for a fishing rod. He was brought over from the CPR to work on the railway like so many of them were. He had a wife and family in China. He had a picture of his wife and two kids on his kitchen table he kept looking at them all the time.

He sent just about everything he earned back to them.”

During the war, my grandfather had a job guarding the bridge.

After the war looking for work, the family moved to Bridal Veil Falls. Dad and his older brother, Stanley, found the move lucrative.

“We were right by the falls and tourists couldn’t find the falls, so they would give us money to show them.

They were beautiful falls.”

Work eventually took the family to the Cariboo. Grandpa and dad both got jobs in a

mill in Horsefly and the family ended up living in the old community hall.

As dad and Uncle Stanley got older, they took to the road for some adventure.

“I had my old car and we started down the highway. We didn’t really have enough money so when we saw a mill we asked if

they needed help. They hired both of us. Stanley went out in the bush and I was driving the fork lift. I got on the old thing and it didn’t have brakes. It went right into the lake. That’s when the boss came out and fired me. I said, ‘You better make my brother’s time out too, we’re traveling together.’

When Stanley came back they gave him his money and said, ‘Your brother quit for you.’”

Fast forward the years. Tired of the cold Cariboo winters, Grandfather moved to Canoe to retire. Dad had been with Grandpa when he bought the house but Uncle Stanley brought down furniture: “Dad couldn’t remember which house he had bought. They drove around and around and finally he said, ‘That looks like the house.’”

Dad moved to Canoe in the early 1960s with Mom, two sons and two daughters. Four more girls would eventually make the family complete.

He built his first business, a fruit stand, The Garden of Eatin in Canoe where the go-karts are located now. The next year he built a second one

friends&neighbours

by Leah Blain where Fisher’s Funeral Home building is. The third year he built another about where PJ’s restaurant is today.

He sold all three and started on his next

venture, The Broaster Kitchen, at the Sandy Point turnoff. He built it and ran the restaurant for several years.

Over the years Dad had businesses in Clinton and Revelstoke but The Market fruit stand (also at the Sandy Point turnoff), which he built and ran for several years, was his favourite. By this time all his girls were old enough to work and it was truly a family-run business. From May through October everyone worked together. Despite the hot weather, wasps, and long hours (we often all did 10-12 hour shifts week after week) these memories stand out as the happiest.

Our home was always the gathering place for the extended family for holiday festivities. Eventually the family grew to over 30 grandchildren and half a dozen great-grandchildren.

With only days left in the year 1998, Dad had a massive stroke.

It catapulted him to an entirely new world populated with doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, pharmacists, and home care workers. Despite the physical difficulties

and constant pain my dad has to deal with on a daily basis, he still inspires us with his humour. In honour of my dad’s 80th birthday this week and with Father’s Day coming this Sunday, I have asked my sisters and brothers to share a memory. [My brothers are wonderful except with deadlines, so they didn’t get anything in].

It’s our tribute to man whose work ethic, humour, generosity, kindness, and dedication to family has inspired us all. Thanks Dad. Kierstin Mujcin, Salmon Arm: One of my favourite memories is Dad showing up to hear me play the organ at a morning Mass. It was the first time I was played the organ in public and I had practiced a lot. I wanted him to come and I didn’t expect him because it was spring and that was his busy time at the fruit stand.

He showed up and that was very nice.

Rachael Tudan, Salmon Arm: Before my sister and I were of school age, Kierstin (younger by a year) and I, would put on our dresses and get to go to town for a ‘date’ with dad. These were usually informal business meetings with the ‘town boys’ for my dad, and a chance for my sister and I to go to a restaurant for fries and pop.

Once I was told to put all my clean clothes away before we left on one of these dates with my dad. Being impatient, I quickly shoved my clothes behind my bedroom door to speed our departure. My mother, being suspicious of the speed in which I finished the task, found them and made me both refold and put them away. I was afraid I sabotaged my chances of getting to go to town, but when I was finally done, dad took me Cont. on next page

Tribute

Cont. from previous page anyway without a word about me keeping him waiting.

Teresa Vandell, Fort Providence, NWT: One time I went with Dad to Armstrong in Dad’s brand new big 5 ton truck. We were picking up a culvert. On our way home, just at the top of the hill by Grindrod, the truck died. It just lost power. While we were waiting for the tow truck we sat by the side of the road and talked. Just the two of us. It was nice to have dad all to myself that day. I’ll never forget it.

Leah Blain, Salmon Arm: About a year ago Dad was in the hospital and asked the nurse for the phone because he needed to call home. He prank called me, putting on a fake voice.

It took me a few minutes to figure out it was a prank call but I was sure it was one of my brothers. It took me a few more minutes to figure out it was Dad. He really laughed and told all the staff that he pulled one over on me.

That’s pretty indicative of Dad - even though he’s sick and in the hospital, it didn’t dampen his sense of humour.

Erin Pelletier, Salmon Arm: I love my dad’s sense of humour. He can find something funny in any situation.

When we moved to Revelstoke to start a new restaurant, my dad employed many girls around my age – 17. He took them aside and told them not to tell me about Santa Claus as I had been home-schooled and didn’t know yet! He thought that was very funny.

There is always laughter in our home and everywhere Dad goes. That is a wonderful legacy to pass on to children and grandchildren.

Lonnie Comin, Cranbrook: When I turned 18, I decided on a very impulsive whim that it was time to step out and travel the world.

I promptly made the arrangements, and set about letting family and friends know that I was leaving the country. I went out to my dad’s work site to say goodbye. I found him on the roof of the restaurant he was building at the time. I remember standing down below and yelling up all casual that I was on my way to Europe and I had just come by to say goodbye. I remember my dad peering over the edge of the roof with something close to disbelief, and asking me to repeat what I’d said.

After I told Dad I didn’t really know where I was going, how I was going to travel, or when I’d be back; he gave me a hug, told me to call if I needed money, and to send him a postcard once in a while.

Now years later, after raising four children of my own, I realize how difficult that must have been for Dad to let me go, send me on my way, without pointing out the pitfalls, the dangers, the lack of preparation or common sense in my decision. He always told me with certainty that I could do whatever I set my mind to, and encouraged me to reach for those goals, regardless of how it affected his peace of mind.

As I look around at my seven siblings, I recognize many of the core values/attitudes instilled in us by our dad, but three that come to mind are: there is never a problem that doesn’t have a solution, a sense of humour is a survival skill, and every moment is worth a smile.

Thank you Dad! Happy Father’s Day from all of us.

RBC volunteers help to build trails

Who says banking is an office job? Staff from RBC Salmon Arm got outside with Shuswap Trail Alliance leadership this month volunteering their time to build a new trail reroute and bridge in the South Canoe Trail System. The team also leveraged a $1000 grant toward the project through the RBC Blue Water program.

“This fits so well with RBC’s Blue Water Project which supports local efforts to protect water,” states Lori Schneider Wood with the Shuswap Trail Alliance. The South Canoe trail upgrades are reducing impact to the watershed by installing bridges and reroutes that prevent damage to streams and wet areas.

The RBC volunteers are part of a growing effort by the Shuswap Trail Alliance to grow volunteer stewardship of trails and greenways throughout the region. And local trail advocate, Lori Schneider Wood, has recently returned to the Shuswap to assume a new role supporting the trail stewards program. She will work with lead Trail Steward, Clint Smith, who volunteers to manage the regional trail report hotline at shuswaptrails.com, and other regional leaders to encourage more community volunteers to get

PET

of the MONTH

involved.

“Along with the annual cycle of monthly volunteer events, we’re looking for new opportunities to work with school groups, clubs, local community associations, and staff teams,” says Lori. “Each year we’ve been able to leverage project funding to hire a seasonal trail team, which means we have someone out in the field all week able to welcome volunteer support.

We’re not just tied down to weekend events.”

Even individuals are taking advantage of this, calling up when they have a day off and want to get out.

“We’ve seen 13 volunteer group events in just two months,” notes Lori, “including the annual spring training workshop.” As well, the Shuswap Trail Alliance was able to partner with the Larch Hills Nordic Society and Recreation Sites and Trails BC to sponsor two chainsaw safety courses open to all trail stewardship organizations throughout the region. The second course will be offered this fall. “This is all part of a new effort by our provincial agencies to better support volunteer trail stewards,” says Lori.

Groups and individuals interested in getting involved as a volunteer trail steward, or setting up a group event like RBC, should contact the Shuswap Trail Alliance at 250-832-0102, email info@shuswaptrails.com, or contact one of our regional trail stewardship organizations directly.

For more on trails throughout the Shuswap, check out www.shuswaptrails.com. And be sure to share trail maintenance needs through the trail report hotline email at trailreport@ shuswaptrails.com Left: RBC volunteer Maurice Wright works with Shuswap Trail Alliance leader Damon Kent on a new bridge crossing to improve water protection in the South Canoe Trail System. Meanwhile, Emerald Mah and Dale Verdon (background), work with other RBC volunteers on a new trail reroute to access the bridge. The RBC volunteer trail day was part of the RBC Blue Water Project supporting local initiatives. Photo contributed.

Vital Signs community survey Vital Signs is a report card prepared by community foundations across Canada which aims to measure the vitality of a region. The Vital Signs report, to be released October 2014, will present data and perceptions on 10 key issue areas of our community life – areas that are critical to our region’s quality of life and well-being.

While the research component of Vital Signs is the hallmark of its success, a key part of this project also involves surveying members of our community to gather opinions about the region in which we live, work, learn and play.

This is your invitation to share your views as a Vital Signs Grader for the report.

The survey: Please complete the survey by assigning a letter grade to each of the 10 issue areas. Once you have assigned a grade, we want your opinion on your top priorities for action. “Tell us how you think the Shuswap Region is doing!”

The grading: As you go through the survey you will notice that the key issues we are asking you to grade are very broad, so we have provided some examples of each issue to consider. Within a given area, there will be some things that are going very well while others are going poorly. Assign a grade based on your opinion of the OVERALL performance of that particular area.

The marks: Choose a grade using the following 5-point scale: A - Awesome! Our community’s the tops; B - We’re doing okay and headed in the right direction; C - Progress is being made; D - Of concern and needs attention; F - In dire need of corrective action.

Your views count! Remember, this is not a test of your knowledge, only your experience in living in the community – we are interested solely in your opinions and perceptions about how the Shuswap region is performing. We are looking to see how opinions and perceptions line up with the scientific data.

You’re ready to begin. You can do the survey either on the printed page, and submit it to the offices of Lakeshore News or Shuswap Community Foundation, or else go online to www. shuswapfoundation.ca under ‘What’s New’ and follow the links from there.

Meditations Read: Matthew 6:24-34

The Grass of the Field Theme Verse: Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

New life is bursting forth all around us these days, and inspiring us to get out there and make the most of it in our flower beds and lawns as a new season of plant life shows us it’s glory. The scripture above reminds us that God clothes the grass of the field. It also reminds us that if He looks after the grass, you can be sure that He will take care of you.

With thankful hearts we should realize anew this spring that we are unworthy creatures before an almighty God. All we have to offer him is our praise, and reverence. The following questions come to me after reading the entire text, and considering my creator God. 1) Why would I want to take control of my life without God? 2) Can I find true contentment outside of God? 3) What does God really ask of me?

We find the answers in the scripture reading in Matthew 6.

1) God is in control of all things; the birds, the lilies, the grass of the field, and the details of our daily lives. Christ says we are of more value than all these things. v.26-30 2) No, I can not find contentment outside of God. v.32-33. By seeking peace and contentment in him, all the things we need will be provided.

Augustine said truly that we find no rest till we rest in God. 3) God wants our love and dedication. He wants us to seek him first; his kingdom, his righteousness. He promises to add to our lives fulfillment.

Worry is the result of weak faith.

An event to commemorate the construction of the Japanese Friendship Gate at McGuire Lake was held on Monday, with participants from both Salmon Arm and Japan (above, right). The massive wooden structure was a gift from Salmon Arm’s sister city Inashiki in 1998.

The carpenters and others that took part in its creation were recognized by having their handprints placed in concrete (above, left). A second set will be created in the near future.

Handprints were placed by Makoto Sakamoto (below, right), Doug Pearson, Kaname Itabashi, Kazuo Yamada, Katsuo Yamaguchi, Nancy Cooper, Bobbi Johnson, Jacquie Mayes (for Colin), Glen Borthistle, Morris Roy, Duncan Morris, Jason Freed, and Colin Scott.

Are you looking for personal care for your pet? At Cozy Critter Care we offer one-on-one dog walking, overnight dog stays in our home, dropin visits to your home, pet waste clean-up and pet taxi services.

We have many years of experience with our own pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, pocket pets) in addition to having worked at a vet’s and SPCA volunteering.

Your pet’s welfare is our first priority, so, after initial contact, we will meet with you and your pet to get to know each other and determine a personal plan to best meet you and your pet’s needs.

At Cozy Critter Care we are able to be very flexible about times and locations of dog walks, which is very convenient for those working or seniors needing an extra hand. Your dog can go for a neighbourhood walk, hike in a park or swim at the dog beach.

While staying at our air-conditioned home, we try to replicate your dog’s routine and schedule as much as possible. Your dog will become a member of our family, getting care and attention in a relaxed atmosphere. Out our back gate are forest walking trails which your dog will enjoy.

Would your pet rather be at home while you are away? Here at Cozy Critter Care we enjoy spending time with your pet when you can’t be there.

Sunscreen can be a smokescreen

Sunscreen is unlikely to stop you from being sunburned, or to reduce your risk of developing skin cancer.

That’s because most people don’t apply it properly, and stay in the sun too long.

The solution?

Slather on sunscreen daily and reapply it often, especially if you’ve been in the water. How much? At least enough to fill a shot glass.

By Andi King The heat didn’t slow down the Shuswap Sharp Shooters U11 girls development team over the weekend in Penticton as they defeated Vernon and Kelowna teams in the blazing sun. Shuswap maintained great possession early in their first game against Vernon. Phoebe Barnes, Lys Milne, and Jordan King put on a passing clinic before Milne finally set King up in the box for a goal early in the first half. Shuswap’s defence led by Brooklyn Davidson, Laura Hall and Holly McCaskill made it difficult for Vernon’s offence all game long.

Barnes dominated the middle of the field and sent King on a breakaway for her second goal of the game. Vernon was able to answer with a wellplaced free kick, making it 2-1. In the second half, Janae Bocking, Sophia Ruckle and Gabriella Torrie continued to pressure the goal with aggressive play. Feisty defender Brooklyn Davidson made a beautiful pass up to King who was able to use her speed and skill to beat the Vernon defence and score the final goal of the game, making it 3-1 for Shuswap. Goalkeepers Braidy Parkes and Alana O’Dell were both stellar in goal. The second contest of the day tested both team’s mental and physical grit as they battled in the blazing heat.

Shuswap struck first in the second minute of the game when Bocking passed to King, who dribbled down the right and crossed the ball in front of the goal to Milne, who volleyed the ball out of the air and into the goal. Shuswap capitalized again when King, off a great assist from Sophia Ruckle, scored off a beautiful strike giving Shuswap a 2-0 advantage. Kelowna fought back hard and was able to tie the game 2-2 with five minutes left in the game.

Shuswap had to dig deep and every player left everything on the field. In the final minute of the game, goaltender Alana O’Dell sent King on a run off a beautiful drop kick, and King, under pressure from Kelowna, scored the game-winning goal in dramatic fashion with a chip shot over the Kelowna keeper. The final score was 3-1 for Shuswap.

Cedar Heights group outings

The Guys and Gals are a group of enthusiastic people who love the outdoors. Their goal is to help support people physical, mental, social and spiritual health by organizing outdoor activities that they can participate in.

In the spring through fall, there is hiking,

Blain’s Biz Send in your Business or Service group information about

Milestone Birthdays « Anniversaries New Titles « New Employees « Awards New Businesses

Anything & Everything!

walking and paddling.

In winter, snowshoeing, cross country and downhill skiing.

Hiking takes place on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month, walking every Saturday morning and paddling on the first Wednesday of the month. Once the snow flies, snowshoeing and cross country skiing takes over from hiking while downhill skiing is decided on a weekly basis. The group meets at the Cedar Heights Centre parking lot in Cedar Heights, Blind Bay. Be sure to mark these two upcoming dates on your calendar: June 25: annual trip out to hike around the Albas Falls. This is a must see; you will view five waterfalls within one kilometre.

The hike is a moderate hike of 4.25 km around the waterfalls. This is a

day outing in the North Shuswap area. Please confirm with Gloria by June 22nd.

July 9: trip to Wells Grey Provincial Park to view six different waterfalls. The hikes into these waterfalls are short and easy, and this can be a day outing or people can stay longer but each individual would make his/her own accommodation arrangements.

Day outings will depart at 8:00 a.m. and be back by 8:00 p.m.

Please confirm with Gloria by July 5th if you are interested in going.

For information for these two dates and about the other activities contact Gloria Heinzmann at gloria16@telus.net or 250-675-0036. Once people confirm with her for these two outings, she will send out more details closer to the date.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

A group effort The backdrop of the Ross Street Stage is in the process of becoming much more interesting, thanks to the design of Tracey Kutschker and the work of a number of individuals including Salmon Arm Arts Centre board members, School District 83 students, and mosaic tile artist Glen Andersen from Vancouver; along with many generous monetary and tile donations from the community. Once the project is complete, a 44-foot mosaic mural depicting a stylized Shuswap landscape through the seasons will grace the wall for years to come.

On Friday, Bastion Elementary teacher Dianne Levesque’s grade four French immersion class was privileged to take part in the construction of the mosaic, with groups of students being given sections of of the sky to work on. Clockwise from top left: Glen Andersen addresses the class before they

begin work; students Maja Weisinger, Nadya Henrie, Jasmine Skubiak, Ella Mills, and Ozaifa Zia lay down fragments of tile on a plastic template; and the finished section awaits a plastic adhesive sheet to keep the pieces together.

By Kathy Kinsella Thomas Roach is a fibre artist who will be coming to teach a workshop on indigo dye at Sorrento Centre in Sorrento.

Come and explore spontaneity, creativity and our innate connection to the Divine with indigo and thread. The workshop runs mornings, 9:45 a.m.–12:45 p.m. on June 30 to July 4.

On the first day you will get your hands deep into a vat of dye and discover the mystery of indigo blue. Experience wonder as the colour appears before your eyes.

We will explore simple tie-dye techniques to create a range of patterning, shading and visual texture. This will form the basis of a personal prayer cloth that you will further enrich by stitching. The meditative act of simple stitching will tap into your inner creativity. Let your hands and mind work together intuitively – every stitch becoming a prayer.

Come and explore creativity and

spirituality through the work of your hands. No previous experience is necessary.

Thomas Roach is the coordinator of a community art project to make and install twenty-five indigo quilts in the parish hall of Christ Church Cathedral, Vancouver.

This is a great opportunity for
