Farm market coupon program expands

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press The B.C. government has expanded its program to offer coupons worth $15 a week for farm market produce to pregnant women, seniors and low-income families who take a nutrition course.

Health Minister Terry Lake announced on the weekend that an additional $750,000 has been added to the program for its third year of province-wide operation, in addition to $4 million provided in 2012 and 2013.

The program runs July through October, as harvest comes off local farms. It is administered by the B.C. Association of Farmers’ Markets.

Participants take a free nutrition and skills program that includes cooking, canning and preserving, and are issued weekly coupons that can be used like cash at participating farm markets to buy locally grown fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs, dairy products, nuts and herbs.

The program is expanded this year to include additional farm markets in Maple Ridge, White Rock, Clearwater, Salmon Arm, Lytton, Fort St. John, Terrace, Whistler, Nanaimo, Qualicum Beach, Port Alberni and Victoria. A total of 49 markets around the province take part, teamed with local social service agencies that offer the courses.

Lake said the program helps people make a

transition to a healthier diet that lessen their risk for chronic diseases, while increasing the customer base for local farmers who sell directly to the public.

The nutrition coupon program began as a pilot in 2007, funded by the social services ministry.

Its goal for this year is to support 10,000 people.

Other participating farm markets and community service agencies are in Abbotsford, Burnaby, Coquitlam, Langley, Mission, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam, Surrey, 100 Mile House, Armstrong, Cranbrook, Kamloops, Kelowna, Penticton, Nelson, Revelstoke, Vernon, Hazelton, Houston, Prince George, Quesnel, Smithers, Courtenay, Duncan and Salt Spring Island.

In Salmon Arm, the Shuswap Farm & Craft Market is held Tuesdays and Fridays at 5th and 5th, behind Centenoka Park Mall, from 8:00– 12:30.

Teething options

Many pediatricians, scientists, researchers and parents disagree about the concept of teething; but one fact the majority of mothers will confirm is that their babies are miserable when their teeth start coming in. While the average infant will begin teething around five-seven months, some moms report babies starting as early as three months and others as late as nine months.

Regardless of what age it starts, parents almost always report changes in their babies before teeth begin to show. Some of the most common changes are an increase in saliva production resulting in a constantly wet T-shirt from all the excess drool. This excess saliva can then cause a chin rash, coughing, and even loose bowels from swallowing it all.

Sometimes, symptoms coming from the teething can be misdiagnosed as other childhood disorders. The nerves that travel to the teeth and gums also pass close to the ear. When there is irritation in the gums

babies will sometimes pull at their ears. When combined with fussiness, this ear pulling can then be mistaken for an ear infection and result in an unnecessary prescription of antibiotics.

It is important to not rush to antibiotics as even the American Academy of Pediatrics suggests waiting 72 hours before giving a child antibiotics as teething pains and even simple fluid inside the ears can often resolve itself within this time period.

It is also not uncommon to see a slight fever, redness, a runny nose, and cough accompany teething, rest assured this is “normal.” While your teething baby’s crankiness may result in a few weeks of stress on the family, be assured this is a natural process that doesn’t necessarily have to be treated medically. It is important to remind parents to never give babies (or kids) Aspirin for pain as it has been linked to the potentially deadly condition “Reye’s Syndrome.”

There are also many safe and effective home remedies parents can utilize to assist with the discomfort that accompanies teething. As the gums become irritated and inflamed, cold and frozen objects that babies can chew often help.

Try placing a clean wet washcloth in the freezer for a while then let baby gnaw on it. Also, a frozen banana is another cold object on which they can chew – just be sure that anything they are given is not too small to choke on. Rubbing their gums with your fingers relieves pain and is comforting to your little one when they are feeling miserable. Finally, I am seeing more and more babies coming in for adjustments wearing amber necklaces. The vast majority of parents report that their babies teething symptoms are greatly reduced when they are wearing these necklaces. They may be purchased at our local health food stores.

If babies are especially fussy during this period I encourage parents to bring them in for a spinal check.

This will ensure their nervous system is clear of stress and interference so their body can develop to their full potential.

Whole fruit vs juice

Fruit belongs to a healthy group of wholesome foods, and a balanced diet includes fruit along with vegetables, protein and carbohydrates. Most fruits have many nutrients and are rich in antioxidants, which are known to reduce various cancer risks. They have vitamins, minerals and also fibre, which help in the prevention of constipation and to lower cholesterol.

Some fruits have enzymes that aid digestion, for example papaya and pineapples. Some fruits can help with other digestive problems. For example, pomegranates help in reducing ordinary diarrhea. Other fruits help with constipation, such as prunes, figs and to a lesser extent, bananas. Some fruits help you to sleep better, for example cherries, which contain melatonin.

Melatonin has been linked to helping with jet lag and in promoting sleep. Grapefruit is relaxing and calming. (Warning: grapefruit juice can be toxic if combined with certain medications, so ask your doctor about this). Some fruits help with urinary tract infection, and we all know about cranberries in this regard. Bilberries are known for the prevention of night blindness.

The benefits of fruits are endless.

Now, are whole fruits better than fruit juice?

Fruit juice is convenient to carry around, refreshing, and sometimes even tastier. However, whole fruit has more nutrients than juice. During the process of making juice many nutrients, including the pulp, which contains nutrients as well as fibre, are lost. For example, it is beneficial to eat whole fruits, such as oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines that have white pulp which are rich in flavinoids, an important nutrient. When making juices, pulp is lost so eating whole fruits, which also contain the pulp, is much healthier. Moreover, juice per portion as compared to whole fruit has more calories and less nutrition.

Some of the commercial juices available have added sugar and water, and have fewer nutrients and more preservatives as compared to whole fruits. On a hot summer day or after heavy exercising, real fruit juice is preferable as it contains more water than whole fruits. Eating fruit satisfies your hunger for a longer period of time as compared to juice, which make you feel full as soon as you drink it, but in a short while you feel hungry again. For dieting, whole fruits are better than juices.

It is now the fruit season and all sorts of fruits are available in our area, so this is the time to enjoy them.

By Sandra Baker The Salmon Arm Fair will once again be here September 5, 6, and 7, celebrating 100 years of BC 4-H. You won’t want to miss the 4-H horse shows, dairy, goat, sheep and photography. The 4-H food booth is also a favourite eating spot!

This year’s fair committee has been working hard to bring other exciting events for the whole community to enjoy. Some old favourites will be returning but there will be new events as well such as the mini chuckwagon races and dog agility. The Global FMX motor-cross cyclists will be returning as will perennial favourite Adam Fitzpatrick, who is one of the top-rated Elvis Presley Tribute Artist in the world. Shuswap Idol will be back, featuring local talent; plus there will be dancers on the main stage and other entertainers throughout the fairgrounds. Many great commercial and food vendors will also be here.

The Salmon Arm Fair is a local community event that showcases the talents and skills of people mainly within Salmon Arm and the surrounding area. A mainstay of the fair are the exhibits that are entered from within our community. Everyone enjoys seeing their own exhibits on display or checking out what others have done. To see if there are classes that you may be interested in entering, check out the Fair book

ROOTS AND BLUES FESTIVAL STARTS TODAY It is the 22nd year that Salmon Arm is holding a roots and blues festival, and this will be the largest, most musically diverse festival in the BC Interior. It has a new artistic director, Peter North, who moved from Edmonton.

He has an extensive background with concert bookings and promotions, and he said in a talk when he introduced himself, that it is as if all his past experiences prepared him for this position.

FALL FAIR GROUNDS ARE IDEAL FOR FESTIVAL Every year, the city of Salmon Arm, the Fall Fair Society, and the society that operates the festival make improvements to the fall fair grounds. New trees are planted every year. The August 15, 16 and 17 Roots & Blues Festival will have five daytime stages and two evening stages. It will have a global food village, an artisan market of handcrafted Canadian creations, and a family fun zone with lots of children’s activities. It will have shaded beverage gardens with stage views, misting stations throughout the site, and paid camping and parking adjacent to the festival grounds.

YES, THE MUSIC IS LOUD It’s only three days, folks, and thousands of people come to enjoy the music. If you cannot fall asleep because of the loud music, use ear plugs, watch TV, or sit outside and enjoy it. The R&B Festival injects millions into Salmon Arm’s economy.

HALF GOAT, HALF SHEEP IS A GEEP A petting zoo in Scottsdale, Arizona didn’t know a pygmy goat and a sheep were in a relationship. All their expectant animals had given birth in the spring. They noticed the mother sheep was getting fat, but they thought she was eating more.

Butterfly, who was given her name because of her various black spots, has the feet and face of her goat father but the fuzzy wool and longer tail of her sheep mother. It’s a rare breed. See many pictures on YouTube: geep born in Arizona.

You will see pictures of other geeps born in other countries.

PRESS LIFELINE BUTTON FOR ASSISTANCE If you live alone, you need some way to call for help. The best in this area is Lifeline which you would press if you need help. It is voice-capable. Interior Health won the bid to look after it between Sorrento and the US border, and David Kelcey in Vernon manages it. He grew up in Sorrento. You can reach him through IHA at 250-558-1334. A total of 2,500 people in his area subscribe to Lifeline.

There is a one-time activation fee of $40 to have it set up.

A volunteer retired Telus employee will come to your home to install the equipment that is on loan, and connect it to your

phone. You can have Lifeline call a neighbour or the ambulance. It is monitored in Toronto for $40 a month.

PILES OF CASH SIT IN OTTAWA Many B.C. residents are a little richer than they think.

Right now there are 378,000 outstanding payments worth $92.3 million sitting in Ottawa’s bank vaults, just waiting for British Columbians to step forward and claim the cash.

These unclaimed tax refunds and government cheques have piled up over the past five years, according to Public Works Canada. Sometimes cheques are lost or undelivered, and sometimes recipients move without registering a new home address. unclaimedpropertybc.ca RUSSIA SHOULD NOT HOST 2018 FIFA United Kingdom’s deputy prime minister asked FIFA not to allow Russia to hold the world’s month-long soccer tournament in 2018 because of the way it is treating Ukraine. FIFA’s top person said it will not change.

So the world is being asked to go to www.boycottputinnow.com. Russia must free Crimea and leave Ukraine alone. The website gives some of FIFA’s statutes, and one states if a country shows discrimination of any kind, it is punishable by suspension or expulsion. The sponsors are Budweiser, Sony, VISA, KIA Motors and Hyundai. You are asked to click each sponsor, and send a tweet to each.

CAMPBELL’S SOUPS HAVE A LOT OF SUGAR CBC’s Fifth Estate exposed the large amount of sugar Campbell’s puts in its condensed soups. The Federal Drug Administration in making companies reduce the amount of sugar they are putting in foods. Google “Fifth Estate sugar.” You will be amazed at the amount of hidden sugar that is contained in foods on grocery shelves!

CANADIAN TIRE IS PET FRIENDLY Canadian Tire in Salmon Arm doesn’t want you to leave your best friend in the car during these very hot days, it wants you to bring it inside when you shop. A sandwich board sign outside the main entrance starts with “Canadian Tire is Pet Friendly” in large letters. Someone from Calgary took a picture of the sign and posted it on Facebook.

BEST-BEFORE DATES ON FOODS BEING SCRAPPED The European Union is proposing compulsory best-before dates be scrapped on coffee, rice, dry pasta, hard cheeses, jams and pickles to reduce the estimated 100 million tons of food wasted in Europe each year. Belgium was the first European country to make it compulsory for supermarkets to give their unsold but still consumable products to at least one food charity. France is following a similar route, according to the Vancouver Sun. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

And you wonder why many people don’t shop local...... who can afford to? Talk about a gas ‘cartel’ in Salmon Arm. The price of gas here as of August 10th is set at one amount only, namely $1.38 right across the board for ALL stations including the Co-op, Shell, Super Save, Petro Canada, Husky and Chevron. As of the same date, gas prices in Kelowna vary from $1.27.9 to 1.28.9, to

Gas ‘cartel’ in Salmon Arm 1.29.9. Kamloops prices start at $125.9 and vary from 1.26.9 to 1.27.9... as much as 13 cents per litre cheaper than what we are forced to pay!

So do the math the next time when you want to fill your tank, and decide where you would rather shop and eat.

Sadly, it actually makes sense and pays NOT to shop local. Town Councils in the Shuswap, and Mr. Kyllo, it is

time you get to the bottom of this price discrepancy. You owe your tax-paying constituents an explanation for this incredible gouging. Perhaps for starters, do a simple online search on the ownership of these stations in town – you might be surprised.

ICBC to send $38m in overcharge refunds

Jeff Nagel, Black Press ICBC is preparing to mail out 309,000 refund cheques ranging from $1 to $350 to optional auto insurance customers it overcharged since 2008.

Wrong rates were used because of incorrect descriptions assigned years ago to

many vehicles that are only now being fixed.

The average customer who overpaid all six years will get a refund of around $108, ICBC spokesman Adam Grossman said.

The cheques will begin to go out around Aug. 20.

The average overpayment was $18 per year.

The refunds plus interest being paid total nearly $38 million.

Nearly 370,000 other motorists were undercharged because of the glitches.

ICBC won’t go after them for the $53 million in lost revenue.

The faulty vehicle descriptions affected only optional insur-

Mouse attack

If you’ve read my articles over the years, you’ll know my kids and I have a bit of a rivalry going with mice. I would say “my family” does, but let’s be honest; my wife just sits back and watches as the boys and I plot and scheme to find ways to catch mice.

Some of you will also recall that last summer while camping we discovered a large mouse nest at our campsite which led to chaos when the boys pulled back a couple rocks around our fire pit that scattered mice everywhere. Well, this year, it seems the mice are back at it, despite us camping at a different campground hundreds of kilometres away from last year’s invasion.

This time our campsite was on the edge of a small six foot drop-off that is held by a rock wall of sorts.

Well, we discovered that there is a mouse nest in the rocks!

Unfortunately, we didn’t bring our cat or our new mouse trap. It’s like the mice knew we were defenceless.

As we were getting ready for bed our first night, equipped with head lamps and flashlights; a mouse came screaming across our campsite. Instantly there was pandemonium amongst the boys. By boys, I mean not just my brood, but also their three boy cousins that were camping with us.

So a lot of yelling and clamour-

ing ensued, as they chased the poor rodent around the campsite.

“Lock up the tent! It can’t get in the tent!” my youngest yelled.

“Get some matches!” someone else yelled.

“Leave the matches alone! What exactly are you going to do with matches?” I exclaimed.

Eventually, the mouse darted and dashed its way over to the rocks and dived deep down a hole.

At that point, seven lights or lamps were shining on the rock. It was like a SWAT team swarming a house (at least the way it looks on TV).

After staking out the mouse nest for several minutes, as if the mouse was actually going to come out at that point; the kids then went into lockdown mode. They ran around ensuring every tent and container around was secure. It was like they thought the mouse was actually interested in breaking into their tent to nibble on their toes versus quietly gathering all the crumbs they dropped on the ground earlier that day as they ate dinner like ravenous wolves.

Once again mice have gotten the best of us; like they always seem to do. By the end of the trip no one had their toes nibbled on, and based on what I saw around the picnic table, the mice will have enough to eat for months.

ance, not basic rates.

The refunds were calculated as part of two independent external reviews that checked millions of insurance transactions over the past six years.

Auditors who examined ICBC’s handling of the issue concluded ICBC knew the problem was systemic as early as 2009 but management hid it from ICBC’s board of directors until mid-2013.

Various fixes were contemplated but discarded, according to the auditors’ report.

ICBC managers feared a solution might harm its relationship with brokers and that disclosure of inaccurate pricing would hurt ICBC’s business position against optional insurance competitors.

The corporation ultimately opted to fix the errors and issue

refunds as part of its sweeping $400-million technology upgrade program.

The long-running overcharges were finally made public in April by Transportation Minister Todd Stone – only after he was directly questioned by the media.

ICBC’s board had intended to wait until it had a refund strategy ready to roll out.

Customers renewing their auto insurance since July have been required to update their vehicle’s descriptions, Grossman said.

The error isn’t expected to recur because ICBC’s modernized system will pull the correct description from the vehicle identification numbers, instead of being entered manually by Autoplan agents.

Neskonlith band evicts Imperial Metals

Issued by Neskonlith Indian Band on August 11th, 2014: Eviction Notice to Imperial Metals Ruddock Creek Mine in Secwepemculecw Imperial Metals failed to properly protect Secwepemc land and waters and our traditional and current uses in our territory (Secwepemculecw). The Mount Polley Tailings Pond breach on August 4, 2014 could have been prevented if Imperial Metal had proper risk assessment and management practices in place; and the provincial and federal governments had properly assessed and monitored the mining operation. Instead no actions were taken, the tailings pond was over capacity and toxic substances continued to be discharged, resulting in a catastrophic breach. To date the flow out of the breach has still not been stopped. The result are longterm impacts on our Secwepemc lands, waters, and the health of our people. Imperial Metals has significantly impacted the Secwepemc land uses throughout Secwepemculecw and significantly contributed to the cumulative impact load for all Secwepemc people. Imperial Metals cannot be allowed to cause any further impacts in Secwepemculecw.

Imperial Metals is currently seeking approval for the Ruddock Creek Mine in Secwepemculecw, in the sacred headwaters of our Adams River Sockeye Salmon run that the Secwepemc people and other Indigenous Peoples in the Thompson and Fraser Watersheds depend upon for their livelihoods. Imperial Metals has already been discharging water from their exploratory mining activities into this extremely sensitive watershed and the habitat for the Adams River Sockeye Salmon, with the approval of the provincial government despite the opposition of the Secwepemc people. The federal government just reneged on their fiduciary obligation to the Secwepemc people, by failing to conduct an independent federal environmental assessment and just deferring to

the provincial environmental assessment process.

As the Yecwiminte r Tmicw, the caretakers of our land and waters, Neskonlith, part of the Lake Secwepemc People, have an obligation to protect our land for our future generations.

Neskonlith Indian Band cannot permit any mining development especially in these Sacred Headwaters that will contaminate the water or destroy our salmon habitat. Our Elders stated they do not want anything that poisons our water or salmon. Our People made a declaration opposing the Ruddock Creek mine and held water ceremonies to protect our water and salmon. Our Council stands with our Elders and People, we oppose the proposed Ruddock Creek mine by Imperial Metals and hereby evict Imperial Metals from our territory.

Neskonlith has not signed any agreements with the province or Imperial Metals, we have not provided our consent to the proposed mining development. We assert Secwepemc inherent jurisdiction and Aboriginal Title. Notice is hereby issued to Imperial Metals owners, employees, insurers, and investors that Neskonlith will not provide access to our lands for the Ruddock Creek mining development.

Neskonlith supports our Secwepemc relatives who are impacted by the Mount Polley mine disaster and their actions for water testing and monitoring and work to restore the ecosystem damaged by the tailing pond breach near Likely BC. Neskonlith also supports the land defenders at Red Chris Mine who are currently blockading access to the Imperial Metal mine in Northern BC. If Imperial Metals does not comply, Neskonlith will also block access to the Ruddock Creek Mine to ensure it is closed indefinitely.

The loaded logging truck rounds the corner too quickly, spilling its load all across the highway and narrowly missing an older couple on their way to a doctor’s appointment. The driver gets a $165 ticket for “undue care and attention.’

The highways contractor has to clean up the mess, and this is paid by you, the taxpayer. A transport truck, loaded with hundreds of rolls of roofing tar paper, rounds the corner near Enchanted Forest, careens into the ditch, and spills its load.

Again, a major clean-up, and again a ticket of only $255. A fishery officer checks a salmon pool on the Shuswap River.

Two anglers are snagging salmon using treble hooks.

Each gets a ticket for $150– about the same as the fine usually levied by a judge, when we took poachers to court. Because production increases at a large mine, and all the managers see it as profit for the company, warnings are ignored.

What I’m saying here, is that our laws pertaining to highway accidents or spilled loads should be changed so that heavy fines are levied as penalties, major demerit points given to drivers who screw up, and the clean-up costs should be covered by the company responsible. For the salmon snaggers, the value of the chinook salmon should be taken into account and a $500 fine given to each; as well as rods and gear forfeited to the crown.

As far as the mine tailing pond breach is concerned, and I’m referring of course to the Mount Polley mine disaster, the managers should see major jail time. Others in the ministry who issued permits for the expansion, and an increased amount of tailings, should spend time behind bars as well! We are too lax with our laws, and fines are not enough to make individuals aware that

our highways should be for all drivers, and the environment is too precious to destroy as far as mines and their development is concerned. Before the breach of the massive tailings pond, the amount of ore processed at the mine was increased by 23% to 23,404 tons per day. When the tailings pond failed, 10 million cubic metres of waste water/4.5 million cubic metres of contaminated tailings entered nearby rivers and into Quesnel Lake– home to fabulous trout fishing, and now the soon-expected run of two million sockeye to pass through. All the accusations and finger pointing will do no good, as the damage to the nearby creeks, Polley Lake, and the debris flow of hundreds of metres of logs and other material to Quesnel Lake, will be there for years to come.

Imperial Metals are no small potatoes, as they operate other major mines in BC, and are near production limit with the Red Chris Mine, as well as the Huckleberry Mine, 130 miles south of Smithers. As for jail time, Imperial Metals was warned five times, the latest last May, for exceeding the permitted height of waste water in the pond. So why did they keep operating? The original engineers hired by Imperial Metals to build the tailings pond, warned the mine officials, and BC government, the mine officials, were not doing enough to build the pond higher due to it getting larger with increased production. In an article by Anna Johnson, staff counsel for West Coast Law Association, Vancouver Sun August 9th, she writes about the long-lasting effect of the local/regional/ provincial economies, as well

shuswapoutdoors

by Hank Shelley as effects on fish/wildlife/ecosystems, and now a guided mistrust of regulators. To optimize the benefits of projects, as well as minimize their risks, we need strong environmental laws, combined with sufficient monitoring. Herein lies the crunch. In 2012, the federal government presented several omnibus regulations watering down the Fisheries Act and weakening protection of fish habitat; as well as the environmental assessment law being replaced with a weaker one including changes to the Waters Protection Act for 99% of our lakes and rivers. We have few mine inspectors in BC, and about 108 conservation officers. I recall a habitat investigation I was involved with a few years back regarding a large dairy farm discharging waste from the milking parlour into a nearby stream. The person I teamed up with was Barb Johns, from the Ministry of Agriculture at the time, who really knew her stuff. Her area covered dairy farms all the way from Williams Lake to Falkland.

This Mt. Polley mess is a wake-up call to all citizens of the province, that we must be more vocal in these mine/run of river/wind turbine/ natural gas/oil developments.

Resource development is increasing by 4% annually in BC. Another huge cooper/gold mine development, has just been rubber stamped by the province in the Seabridge Gold Corp. properties north of Stewart. Let’s hope it’s done properly. If not, I still think jail time is the only way to go. It’s about time, don’t you think?

It’s one of those sounds of summer in the country. The sharp, metallic “clink” of metal hitting metal, and the low murmur and soft cheers of the players.

Pitching horseshoes is a tradition that represents warm weather, good friends and family, and time spent together. The game can be played simply by driving two stakes 40 feet apart. A layer of sand around the stakes is recommended.

Salmon Arm is lucky enough to have its own competitive horseshoe pitch. For a

fun, easy and inexpensive activity for the whole family, you can check it out on Tuesdays and Thursday evenings at 6:30. Members of the local club will welcome visitors and show them how they pitch horseshoes in the Shuswap. You’ll find the club next to the Lawn Bowling Club, Curling Club, College and Shaw Centre. It’s a good idea to call ahead of time to ensure that the club will be open.

Roots and Blues this weekend!

Now in its 22nd year, the Salmon Arm Roots & Blues Festival is the largest, most musically diverse festival in the BC Interior.

Over the years it has gained an outstanding reputation for the variety and quality of its presentations and for the high standard of its organization.

The Festival began in 1992 as a small indoor festival, a result of the grassroots Shuswap Coffee House collective of the 1970’s and 80’s, which by 1991 had coalesced into the not-for-profit Salmon Arm Folk Music Society.

The mandate of the S.A.F.M.S. includes encouraging and pro-

moting performers from all parts of the world (with a special emphasis on Canadian talent), and introducing audiences to the world’s many diverse genres of music, musical instruments, and the artists who play them. Supporters of the Roots & Blues Festival are directly helping to foster the growth and development of music in our community, country, and by extension, our world.

The Festival takes place on the third weekend of every August at the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds, an 18-acre park in the centre of beautiful Salmon Arm. At night,

Theatregroup inworked thehardShuswap to mime, has been added

Theatre was alive and well in the Shuswap for a number of years before the current society was founded. Theatre archives have newspaper articles and pictures dating back to the 1960s when the group called itself the Shuswap Players.

In 1977, Jack Alouf, Recreation Director for the District of Salmon Arm, and James Bowlby advertised a meeting and, to their surprise, 24 people showed up in the drama room of J. L. Jackson Junior Secondary.

From this group three productions were organized for Shuswap Theatre’s first season.

Realizing shortly after formation that they would need a dedicated building, the

raise funds and then harder still to renovate the old Shuswap Radiator building on Hudson Street. This became their very own building (in its current location) in 1980. It was a huge undertaking at the time but well worth the effort and a big reason why Shuswap Theatre has had such a successful history.

Following the pattern of our first year, each season has consisted of three mainstage productions, one each in the fall, winter and spring with the final production entered as our entry into the Okanagan Zone Festival. In recent years a Christmas production, often a panto-

to the season. Second Stage productions began in 2002, recognizing a need to provide a venue for play readings, and to provide new actors and directors with an opportunity to gain experience. In some years Shuswap Theatre has also sponsored a popular summer theatre program.

A few years ago, an Improv Group named Laughing Gas has been formed, meeting twice a month and performing for the public a few times each year.

The lake is full of fish and there is a handy boat launch for fishing boats, kayaks, and canoes. Or you can fish right off the shore.

MonkeyJunk set to rock Roots and Blues

Contributed One of the signs of a successful Canadian folk/roots music festival is when patrons find themselves faced with difficult decisions on what stage to plunk themselves down in front of, as daytime workshop sessions and side stage concerts are unfolding simultaneously.

Time and time again the Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival has presented its faithful followers with a slate of Saturday and Sunday daytime offerings that can require music fans to map out a tightly programmed day’s journey around the site.

favour of witnessing some instrumental fireworks from a group of amazing guitarists or fiddle players?

Does one commit to a workshop of musicians from young indie bands jamming on a theme, rather than taking in a Canadian debut concert from an acoustic act that has been receiving much advance praise from the American press?

The process can be frustrating and fun at the same time, and not just for the patrons of the Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival but attending musicians as well.

Steve Marriner, who handles lead vocals, harmonica and guitar for the award-winning trio MonkeyJunk is one of those musicians who wants to soak up as much music as possible when he’s not on a festival stage. Marriner will be playing main stage on opening night, and a handful of workshops on Saturday and Sunday before rocking the Boogie Bar-N stage on Sunday night with drummer Matt Sobb and guitarist Tony D. “I want to see what other musicians are up to. Sometimes the decision comes down to going to see someone you’ve heard a lot of good things about, but never caught live, as opposed to catching an artist you’ve seen a few times who you really admire,” says Marriner.

Marriner loves surprises, and when MonkeyJunk played Salmon Arm two years ago, the band bonded with Florida’s J. J. Grey and Mofro; and the two acts created some serious musical sparks and chemistry when paired at a workshop.

This year Marriner and MonkeyJunk intend to unleash a few surprises during the group’s Friday night main stage set.

The band hits the stage following the Celtic instrumental swirl of Coig, which will kickstart the main stage offerings

for the weekend. MonkeyJunk will then make way for the legendary Mavis Staples before Souljazz Orchestra, who, like MonkeyJunk, are from our nation’s capital, and will close out the first night of the festival.

“Well, they wouldn’t be surprises if we told you who is going to make guest appearances with us, but we’ll have a lot of talented friends on site,” says Marriner, who has no shortage of musical friends across Canada after touring relentlessly with MonkeyJunk for the past four years. Prior to the powerhouse blues-basted trio coming together at a jam session in Ottawa, Marriner toured extensively with the virtuosic Harry Manx and he continues to gig with Manx once in a while. Marriner also recorded a fine solo disc titled Going Up in 2007.

Salmon Arm Roots and Blues audience members will also be able to catch Marriner and his harmonicas in the Coast To Coast Full Throttle Folk workshop hosted by Good For Grapes at the Boogie Bar-N stage at 1:30 on Saturday, while the boys in MonkeyJunk will host the We Got Harps, We Ain’t No Angels workshop at the CBC Blues Stage at 4:15 Saturday afternoon.

“I like all the workshop environments. Working with musicians I’ve played with before and working in new situations with players where you are working without a net. It’s an important part of the festival experience for players and fans alike.”

by Tyler Lowey, Vernon Morning Star Cole Churchill is Canada’s top amateur cowboy once again.

For the second straight summer, Churchill captured the Canadian High School Rodeo Finals high-point total in Nanton, Alberta with a 481.

“There isn’t one event that stands out to me.

Just being able to attend these rodeos was pretty cool in my last year of high school,” said Churchill. “It’s been fun.”

Churchill, a Pleasant Valley grad, won the saddle bronc riding with 138 points. He finished second in cutting with a three-round total of 212 points and 21st in steer wrestling during his title defence.

“He’s a pretty laid back kid, but you could tell he was pretty excited about this one,” said Cole’s father, Jason Churchill. “It’s a pretty exciting way to end his high school career.”

Churchill was down in Rock Springs, Wyoming in late July for the National High School Finals Rodeo, where he finished second in the saddle bronc. He brought back $1,500 in scholarships and a big shinny belt buckle for being the only cowboy to ride all four horses.

The saddle bronc riding has been the most improved aspect to his rodeo. He doesn’t have the horses to practise with on his ranch, so he wings it once he steps into the arena.

“I got a new saddle last spring and it’s a lot more comfortable. I also have more experience riding,” said Cole Churchill.

His father made the trips to Wyoming and Nanton, and was surprised by how well his son performed.

“We were pretty shocked with how well he did

in the saddle bronc. He got good horses to ride and ended up finishing second best in the world,” said Jason Churchill.

Cole heads down to Western Oklahoma State College Sunday with a few of his horses on a full-ride scholarship. Churchill wants to be an electrical engineer. Photo contributed.

DesignDilemmas

Corn, rhinos and carpet

I send out a monthly newsletter and for the first time I’m going to use some of the newsletter in the column. I’m doing that because I really want homeowners to know about this carpet fibre and what it can do for you. If you are out and about “just looking around,” in a big-box home DIY store, go to the rug department and feel a carpet made of this fibre; you will be surprised. I promise.

What could possibly tie corn, rhinos and carpets together? The fibre “Triexta.” This is a relatively new fibre produced from cellulose, which is a renewable resource. (There is the corn.) It is also the strongest and most durable carpet fibre ever produced. Its stain and crush resistant properties far surpass any other fibre – and, these properties are part of the fibre; they are not achieved by adding finishes after production, so they won’t wear off. It is highly resistant to colour fading, feels very soft, and is available in all carpet price ranges.

To prove their claims of superiority, the developers put Triexta fibre in the rhino enclosure at the Birmingham Zoo. Two weeks later the (cleaned) carpet showed no signs of staining or wear. (There are the rhinos.) Same results in the

Dallas Zoo’s elephant and camel enclosures.

Yes, a bit show-bizzy, but it was enough to aid in the designation of Triexta as a new fibre, joining polyester and nylon as one of the three main fibres used in residential carpets. If you’re buying a new carpet, you would do well to get one with a high Triexta content.

Nylon and polyester make durable, stain-resistant, affordable carpets, too, and some at very low prices. Triexta is being blended with these two fibres to add further durability, colour-fastness and resistance to staining while keeping the price down. For the diehards, wool or silk still have their place in the carpet world, but they are becoming price-prohibitive for most people.

Those of us down here in the trenches want as much stress-free stuff in our homes as possible and looking after an expensive rug may not be on our housekeeping lists.

Carpet is making a comeback in decor. I see a lot of people wanting relief from hard, noisy floors and carpets can add instant softness to any decor. It’s a big buy, though; ask a professional for help.

Silverbacks host season kickoff

Salmon Arm - The Salmon Arm Silverbacks Junior ‘A’ Hockey Club invites the community of Salmon Arm to a Silverbacks Third Annual Season Kickoff at City Hall on Thursday, August 21 from 5:00–7:00 p.m. Their invitation extends out to the community of Salmon Arm as well as their fans, army of volunteers, corporate sponsors, billet families and anyone thinking of being involved with the team this year.

The Silverbacks’ Third Annual Season Kickoff is an opportunity to gather for a family BBQ (by donation), enjoy a meet and greet with their players and staff, and take part in a town hall style meeting afterwards.

Their beloved team mascot Kong will be handing out team swag and will be on hand for photo ops with the kids. As well, players will be available for autographs and fans will be given the opportunity to tour the team bus, buy season tickets, and sign up to join the Silverbacks army of volunteers.

They’ll also have information on hand for fami-

lies considering billeting a player this year. Billet families are still needed!

They’re very excited to have the Apple Auto Glass dunk tank that will host Salmon Arm Mayor Nancy Cooper, Silverbacks GM Troy Mick, Head Coach Brandon West and others who will brave the tank to raise money for the Silverbacks Scholarship Fund. Donate and dunk!

“We are in for a very exciting year. We’ve stepped up our game on and off the ice with a great team of exceptional players, skilled staff and our game day show factor,” says Silverbacks GM Troy Mick. “This is the community’s opportunity to embrace the spirit of our new slogan – Our Team.

Our Town. Our Game. After the outdoor family BBQ and meet and greet, we’ll head inside for a town hall style meeting to give attendees an opportunity to be a part of the unveiling of some exciting game day news, meet the new staff and participate in a question and answer time.”

Horseshoe Club travels to Summerland

By Faith Juell During the hot weekend of August 9-10, four members of the Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club traveled to Summerland for the annual two-day tournament. Over twenty members from other clubs also participated. On day one, in mixed play, Ted Peters placed first and Tom Ingebrigtson placed second in their respective categories.

Clarence Juell placed third in mixed play during the afternoon. On Sunday morning, fourteen pitchers remained to play mixed Walking Doubles.

The team of Clarence Juell and Bill Buresse, a Summerland member, had a first-place tie with the team of Les Anderson (from the Kootenays) and Faith Juell in the B section.

A special thank you goes out to all the workers and tournament directors for a lovely weekend of competitive horseshoe pitching in Summerland.

The last tournament of the valley will be hosted

by Salmon Arm on August 23-24. Please note the

change of date.

With some members busy or away to other areas, we have started early preparation for our tournament, with cleanups planned and prizes being prepared for the in-house raffle table.

Sunday, August 10 saw the annual gathering for Zone 8 participants in the Turtle Valley. Many from Salmon Arm, Kamloops, Ashcroft, and many spots between will be attending the games in the Langley area.

Obituaries

JOHNSON, HERBERT ALLAN

January 19, 1935 - August 10, 2014 Herb was predeceased by his daughter Kym and will be dearly missed by his wife Janet (Fountain/Coulson), son Kris, step-children, Peter (Myrna), Robin (John), Sharon (Todd); grandchildren, Jordan (Laura), Shea, Kristen (Andrew), Carly (Ben), Melissa, Allan, Michael; great grandchildren, Forrest, Whitney and soon to arrive Jackson as well as many nieces and nephews.

Born and raised in Richmond and Burnaby, Herb’s love of carving surfaced early. He received recognition as an accomplished sculptor of our native birds by the Shuswap Lake Festival of the Arts. In his early years he worked at Douglas Ranch. He served five years in the RCAF. Herb retired after thirty years with the Vancouver Park Board as the man responsible for all the lovely boulevard trees. His time in Blind Bay gave him great satisfaction with a life well lived.

A Celebration of Life will be held at the Blind Bay Hall, 2510 Blind Bay Road on Saturday, August 16, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.

Arrangements entrusted to Fischer’s Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd., Salmon Arm (250) 833-1129. Email condolences and share memories through Herb’s obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices.com.

BRUCE EVERARD CAMPBELL SEPTEMBER 7, 1927 - AUGUST 2, 2014 On the evening of August 2, 2014, Bruce passed away peacefully at Shuswap Lake General Hospital after a brief illness. His loving wife of 62 years (Elizabeth) was by his side.

Raised on his family’s farm in Stanstead, Quebec and then later in Lennoxville, Quebec he was the eldest of four children born to Everard John Campbell and his wife Phoebe May (nee Paige). After attending Stanstead College and working a while for Bell Telephone in Sherbrooke, Quebec, in 1950 he and an equally adventurous co-worker decided to head west. He ended up in Vernon, BC and started his life long career working for Okanagan Telephone Co. and BC Telephone Co. He worked out of the Vernon & Penticton offices for a few years but most of his 34 years with the company were spent here in Salmon Arm. Bruce met his wife Elizabeth Runcie (Betty) in Kelowna and in August 1952 they married and together raised three children. Bruce was a devoted father who made certain that his children (and grandchildren) had the many privileges that he did not have while growing up during the depression years. In 1984 he retired to his home in Blind Bay where he enjoyed the majority of his 30 retirement years caring for and riding his horse “Shadow”, golfing and fishing with his friends, taking the odd camping trip up into the mountains by horseback and spending quality time with his grandchildren. He instilled in all of us a love of animals and nature and that the joy of owning an animal as a pet such as a dog, horse or cat was a privilege and responsibility not to be taken lightly. Many from Penticton and Salmon Arm will remember Bruce as their hockey coach, baseball coach, or boxing coach in their younger days. He always took the time for young people and there was many a horse ride around the pasture on his gentle horse “Jubilo” given to any youngster who asked for one.

Bruce was pre-deceased by his parents, his youngest sister Marian, his brother Gordon, his only son Daniel in 2013 and his beloved chocolate lab “Dante” on April 23rd of this year.

He is survived by and will be missed greatly by his loving wife Betty, his sister Jean Morrison, his daughter Jeanne Campbell-Wensrich (Brent Wensrich) his daughter Marianne Campbell, his granddaughters, Dr. Rebecca Campbell (Scott Karpiak) & Jacquelin Anhorn (Ryan Graffunder) and by his grandson, Daniel Anhorn. He is also survived by his great granddaughters, Roselyn Karpiak and Portia Karpiak, several cousins, nieces and nephews spread out across Canada & the USA & so many good friends.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the medical staff in Kelowna & Salmon Arm, especially to those nurses and care-aides who made that extra effort to take special care of Bruce during his time in hospital.

In lieu of flowers a donation to a charity of your choice would be appreciated.

There will be no formal service by request.

Arrangements entrusted to Fischer’s Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd., Salmon Arm (250) 833-1129. Email condolences and share memories through Bruce’s obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices.com.

Margaret Cederholm Margaret Cederholm passed away in Shuswap Lake General Hospital, Salmon Arm, BC on Tuesday, August 5, 2014 at the age of 82 years.

A Family graveside service was held at the family plot in Mt. Ida Cemetery on Saturday morning, August 9th at 9:30 a.m., followed by a Celebration of Life service and reception at the Salmon Arm Recreation Centre at 11 a.m. with Jack Bowers the Funeral Celebrant. Urn bearers were Tammy Robertson and Chad Becker. Tributes were shared by family and friends, including three of the grandchildren, Chad, Tyler and Tammy.

Born in Hillcrest, Alberta on October 12, 1931. She has resided in the Shuswap since 1949, marrying the love of her life, A.S. (“Spike”) Cederholm on March 30, 1951 (during spring break up). Margaret was proud of her former restaurant work, working in places such as the York in the Old Hudson Hotel, The Tavern Inn, for the late Tom Middleton, and the original Co-op Mall (now Piccadilly), where she was sent to Drumheller, Alberta for 3 months of training.

Despite her failing physical health, she remained active with the Canoe Seniors, always willing to assist with the phone calls for the variety of receptions and socials. She is well remembered for her love of family and friends and her acceptance of others, her generous ways and her love of life, regardless of all the hardships along the way. All who knew her will have many fond memories.

Margaret was predeceased by her parents, Carl and Bertha Firestone, daughter Debby in 1971; son Les in 2005; husband Spike in 2009, brothers, John, Charlie and Max Firestone. Margaret leaves her loving and dedicated family; daughters, Linda and Sandy (Stan), grandchildren, Tammy (Jim), Debby (Lance), Chad (Julia), Tyler (Crystal); great grandchildren, Josh, Matt, Callum, Myla, Declan, Sienna, Ever, and Ryder; and many extended family and friends.
