familychiropractic COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Dr. Warren Gage

Chiropractic history

With even a basic understanding of the nervous system, it is not difficult to comprehend how subluxations interfering with the nervous system can have an impact on all systems in the body. Looking back through the historical archives of chiropractic, our founding fathers also had an amazing understanding of the potential for chiropractic care to help not just the physical health but also the mental health of individuals.

As far back as 1905 B.J. Palmer, the son of D.D. Palmer who was the “discoverer of chiropractic,” is quoted in expert case testimony stating, “if an atlas is subluxated, it makes abnormal the functions of the brain.” In answer to the question, “What is to be done in insanity,” he replied, “Go back to cause.

Adjust that and return that brain to its normal capacity and capability.”

In the 1920’s several inpatient mental health facilities were established where chiropractic adjustments were the dominant clinical care provided. In 1922, the Forest Park Sanitarium and the Clear View Sanitarium in Davenport, Iowa, were seeing great results with patients. In fact, around that time it is reported that in the state-run mental hospital, the “cure and discharge rate” ranged from 18-27% compared to 65% at Forest Park.

What is also interesting is much attention was placed on the design of these facilities to ensure they had rooms that were “sunny and bright,” and that meals included “large servings of fresh vegetables...from a garden.” A holistic approach to mental health was proving very

effective at that time and still today.

Leaping forward to recent history, researchers are still placing attention on the results of adjustments affecting mental health. In 1997 a large study was published that assessed 2818 individuals under subluxation-based chiropractic care on self-related health, wellness, and quality of life. After surveying all of these people, a strong connection was found between persons receiving chiropractic care and self-reported improvement in health, wellness, and quality of life.

Again, in 2007 a study was published in the journal Complementary Therapies in Medicine titled “The Psychological Response in Spinal Manipulation.” This study reviewed psychological outcomes in patients in randomized controlled clinical trials of spinal manipulation and concluded that, There was some evidence that spinal manipulation improved psychological outcomes compared with verbal interventions…The clinical implications are that physical treatments, such as spinal manipulation have psychological benefits.”

Since our profession’s earliest days, people have been experiencing the beneficial effects on mental and emotional health. What always amazes me is how deeply our founding fathers D.D. and B.J. Palmer understood the great impact chiropractic adjustments have on all aspects of an individual’s well being. Dr. Warren Gage is a family wellness chiropractor and can be reached at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224.

CSRD hosts trunk sale

Looking to sell, trade or give away some of your unwanted or previously-loved stuff but can’t hold your own garage sale? Then you’ll want to take part in the second annual Trunk Sale being held at the north side of the Salmon Arm Fair Grounds located at 481 5th Ave SW on Saturday May 30th. Organized by the Columbia Shuswap Regional District’s Waste Reduction Program, the event champions the concept of reuse and recycle, with one giant garage sale in the fairground parking lot.

“This is a great opportunity to unclutter your life!” says Carmen Fennell, Waste Reduction Facilitator with the Regional District. “These trunk sales encourage you to get your unwanted stuff to someone else who could use it, so it’s about reuse, bargains and having less items end up needlessly in the landfill.”

“This is an opportunity for people who wouldn’t normally be able to host their own garage or yard sale, those that live in condos, apartments, or simply have no yard. But it’s also for people who only have a small number of

garage sale items and don’t want to host their own sale; everyone’s welcome to take part.”

There was tremendous response to the sale last fall, with over 60 vendors participating, so if you’re looking to be a vendor on sale day, you need to sign up early.

Just as the name suggests, you do the selling from the trunk of your car, van or back of your pickup.

There’s no charge to be a vendor, but you need to pre-register beforehand.

The deadline to register is Wednesday, May 27th. To register as a vendor, please visit the CSRD website under Free Disposal Events or contact Carmen Fennell, the Waste Reduction Facilitator at 250-833-5936.

If you don’t have items to sell at the Trunk Sale, be sure to come and shop for bargains on the sale day. The Trunk Sale runs from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., Saturday, May 30th in the parking lot, north side of the Salmon Arm Fair Grounds-481 5th Ave SW. For further information please contact the Waste Reduction Facilitator at 250-833-5936 or visit the CSRD website at www. csrd.bc.ca.

ALMOST 1,000 MUSLIMS SPENT THE VICTORIA DAY WEEKEND IN SALMON ARM “Love for all, hatred for none” is the worldwide Muslim slogan. Close to 1,000 Muslim men, students and elders from Western Canada spent three days in Salmon Arm where they ran two programs: sports and education.

They came from Vancouver, Abbotsford, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Regina and Edmonton. Most were born in Pakistan and their children were born in Canada.

Their main language is Urdu.

Nasir Mahmood Butt is the imam and missionary for the Calgary and prairie region. He said the next gathering this year will be in Drayton Valley and it will be much larger because it will include women. Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at is the name of the community in Calgary to which they belong and it has the largest mosque in this country. Next year it will celebrate its 50th year in Canada.

I asked why they didn’t tell us they were coming. We could have had the mayor welcome them. The imam said this was an internal gathering with no media attention.

They didn’t want to inconvenience the local people. They booked the sports facilities and recreation centre three months ago, and motels and hotels three weeks ago. Avis trucks brought food, and meals were prepared and served by volunteers.

All the Muslims liked Salmon Arm. It’s is a beautiful community with great facilities, and beautiful people.

Everyone smiled at them. People want to come back next year, but it hasn’t been decided. If they are coming back, they will contact me to arrange a greeting committee and a welcome by the mayor.

MY FAVOURITE TV PROGRAM WAS LITTLE MOSQUE ON THE PRAIRIE Little Mosque on the Prairie was a television comedy written by Zarqa Nawaz, a Pakistani woman born in England who lives in Regina with her lawyer husband and their four children. She created the world’s first sitcom about a Muslim community living in the west, in the fictional community of Mercy, Saskatchewan. It premiered to record ratings on the CBC in 2007 and finished airing its 91st episode in 2012 after completing six seasons. It is now being broadcast to over 60 countries.

Regina will have a large mosque completed this year.

Next year Saskatoon will have one.

CLASSICAL, FOLK & MODERN MUSIC NEXT FRIDAY A gala concert will be presented at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on Friday, May 29 at 7 p.m., and again at an afternoon concert on Sunday, May 31 at 2 p.m. An amazing line-up of guest musicians for the gala is being arranged by Andrew Stoney, director of music at the Presbyterian church. Admission is by donation, and 100 per cent of donations will be presented to a representative of the S.A.F.E. Society, the women’s shelter, at the conclusion of each concert.

Sponsors of the concerts are Hanna & Hanna Orchards of Salmon Arm and the Presbyterian Church of Canada.

For more information, phone 250-832-7282 or write Rev. Woldy Sosnowsky at wsosnowsky@shaw.ca. The church is located across the Trans Canada Highway from the RCMP detachment.

REGIONAL DISTRICT DOESN’T PAY FOR PAINT RECYCLING When I asked at Bill’s Bottle Depot why I had to sign when taking out paint, I was told the CSRD likes to know because it funds it. That is not correct. Taxpayers do not pay for recycling of packaging and printed paperprograms. The only involvement the CSRD has with the depot operation is for the collection of residential Packaging and Printed Paper through the Multi Materials BC program.

BEAMISH BUILDING HOLDS 6,436 RECORDS R. J. Haney Heritage Village has a building that was erected and designed specifically for the collection of Sam Beamish who hosted a weekly radio show called Cobweb Corners for 20 years. It was recorded out of CFJC in Kamloops and broadcast to many interior towns. In 1989 Sam and his wife Helen moved to Salmon Arm. Before he died, he donated his entire music collection to Haney Heritage Village in Salmon Arm. He was born in 1921 in Lacombe, Alberta. In 2000, a year before he died of cancer, he participated in the groundbreaking ceremony for the Beamish Building.

The building was opened in 2005. It contains 6,436 records, 905 cylinders, and 13 players. Motion sensor lights come on as soon as you enter the building, and Sam’s voice comes on in the control room, from Cobweb Corners. A list of all the contributors to the building can be seen near the entrance, and details can be found in the three-ring binder.

WHISTLER BLACKCOMB WILL NOT ALLOW SMOKING What if Salmon Arm banned all smoking? Would tourists stay away? Probably.

After May 31, 2015, Whistler Blackcomb will have a smoke-free policy to preserve the pristine alpine environment. This includes all the mountains and all other resort property. Marijuana cannot be smoked either. People who work at the resort will have one year to kick the habit, as designated smoking areas will be removed in a year.

COMMIT ONE DAY TO GO WITHOUT SMOKING Sunday, May 31, 2015 is World No-Tobacco Day. It is observed around the world every year on May 31.

Wikipedia states it is intended to encourage a 24-hour period of abstinence from all forms of tobacco consumption around the globe. It was created in 1987 by the member states of the World Health Organization.

THIS PERSON HUNG UP ON A SCAM CALLER I received this email from a reader: “The phone rang and on my call display it said private caller. When it doesn’t give a name I NEVER answer. I was curious this time and answered it. The man at the other end spoke very poor English and asked what my name was. I told him it was NONE of his business and asked who was he looking for. He said there was a problem with my Visa and he needed more information or he would cancel my Visa immediately. I told him to cancel it and hung up.”

CAREGIVERS CAN GET A TAX CREDIT As a caregiver caring for a disabled relative who is dependent on you, you may be eligible for a tax credit if, at any time of the year, the two of you lived in the same dwelling. If you and another person support the same dependent, you can split the claim between you. From Ken Garth of BDO Canada, the author of Income Tax Information for Families of Alzheimer’s Patients.

SAVE DISABILTY PAY AND THE GOV’T WILL MATCH IT The Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) is a long-term savings plan to help Canadians with disabilities and their families save for the future. If you have an RDSP, you may also be eligible for grants and bonds to help with your long-term savings. The government will pay matching grants of 300, 200 or 100 per cent, depending on the beneficiary’s family income and the amount contributed. Google RDSP. ENDERBY IS GETTING A TIM HORTONS The new Quilakwa Stop ‘N’ Shop and Esso Gas station on Highway 97A in Enderby will have a Tim Hortons by July.

DAIRY QUEEN CANCELLED SOME TOPPINGS When I am in Victoria, I take the two youngest grandchildren for a one-on-one treat with Baba. For them, that excursion and deep-frying bread dough are the highlights of my visit. Can you imagine how I felt when I learned that maple walnut sundae topping, my favourite, is no longer available at Dairy Queen? Neither is marshmallow! The Salmon Arm Dairy Queen does still offer marshmallow; however, when the current supply is gone, there will be no more.

ARE YOU PLANNING TO MARRY? If you have a last will and testament, it remains valid even if you marry after signing it. The rules changed in March, 2014. In B.C., a will is revoked only if the will-maker makes another will, if the will-maker revokes all or part of the will in writing, if the will-maker destroys the will with the intention of revoking it, or there is an order of the court. The Wills, Estates and Succession Act has many other changes. Google WESA. GETTING A DIVORCE? JUST CLICK HERE The Vancouver Sun had an article about a Dutch online program that can save in lawyers’ fees and court costs.

With the program, two people can work together from separate locations to create and change a separation agreement. Mediators and judges can interact with them online.

For issues where they need help with a real person, there’s a button to call in a mediator. They can use Skype for a conference or meet face-to-face with a mediator.

Here’s the best part: you can apply for a divorce even if your spouse refuses to participate. The mediator will try to involve the other person. When the answer is no, the mediator will bring in a neutral person to act on that person’s behalf. Go to www.hiil.org, search for divorce.

IF A PERSON IS DYING, FAMILIES NEED TO TALK ABOUT END-OF-LIFE CARE When patients and their families cannot accept that death is near, medical staff may use aggressive, invasive, futile and expensive care at the end of life. That is the result of a survey of more than 1,200 doctors and nurses from across the country. Often the care will inflict more suffering than help.

A Victoria physician said it is important for people to have conversations long before a crisis happens. Talk about death and dying. It’s not just patients and families who have trouble talking about it, it’s also physicians. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

Vegetarian drivers

It seems whenever I am driving with my two youngest boys, they are telling me to race others on the road. So like a good Dad, I remind them of speed limits and other rules of the road; although I do rev the engine once in a while to get them excited.

It’s a classic case of backseat drivers and the reason 8 and 11 year-olds don’t have their license!

This happened the other day when we were down in Kelowna for a basketball tournament. As we were driving around town between games my backseat drivers were yelling out “Speed up Dad!” or “Pass that guy!”

To make matters worse, every time we’d be at a stop light

the boys would stare down the car beside us as if challenging them to a drag race.

It was all a typical day in the vehicle, until my 8-year-old Nathan yelled out, “Pass the vegetarian!”

“What?” I responded.

“Pass the vegetarian! Pass the vegetarian!” he exclaimed.

At that point the Junior Bean Counter and I were totally confused.

“What are you talking about?” the Junior Bean Counter said with a funny look in his eye.

“That vehicle over there. He’s a vegetarian!” Nate answered.

“How do you know the man driving that car is a vegetarian” I inquired.

plate. He’s a vegetarian!” he answered.

I was still confused, but the Junior Bean Counter was quick to solve the mystery of the “vegetarian”.

“That license plate is for a Veteran. He’s a Veteran, not a vegetarian!” the Junior Bean Counter responded.

“Ya, a veteran.

That’s what I mean.

Pass the veteran!”

Nate responded.

We all had a quick laugh and yes I did eventually pass the “vegetarian” much to the satisfaction of the boys. Don’t worry, I didn’t break any laws in doing so, but I did learn something new about license plates!

I recently participated in a meeting of the Standing Committee on Finance which is studying the financing of terrorism. Prior to being a part of this study, I had many questions that I am certain most of you have asked – questions such as, “where do these terrorists get their money to buy guns and armaments?” and “why can’t governments stop the flow of money to these terrorist groups?” Well, the very informed witnesses attending the Committee meeting answered many of those questions.

Professor Bill Tupman from the United Kingdom told the Committee how oil from sites controlled by ISIS is flowing through Turkey to the Black Sea where a process of paper-juggling allows the oil to enter the European market with no determination of the oil’s place of origin. This brings in as much as a million dollars a day to fund the so-called Islamic State’s aggression.

Professor Christian Leuprecht of Canada’s Royal Military College informed the Committee that one of the most effective vehicles for both money laundering and financing of terrorist rings is cigarettes. In 2013, sixteen persons around New York City were arrested in operation “Tobacco Road.” It is estimated that this illegal operation alone raised $22 million to finance Hezbollah and other terrorist operations while costing the city of New York $80 million.

Various Mid-East countries are also funding Terrorist groups directly which is very troubling.

Tracking money is also difficult in the age of internet. Persons in the USA and Canada can simply go on PayPal and donate $1000 to groups such as ISIS and there is next to no way to trace donors.

These are the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies. One of the witnesses at the Finance Committee recommended that the RCMP establish a branch solely focused on forensic auditing to trace money leaving Canada as well as the identifying the sources of funding.

by Colin Mayes I agree with this recommendation. If the global community doesn’t stop the flow of money to terrorist groups they will be able to buy more sophisticated weapons and this will only increase the threat to free western democracies.

One thing for certain is that our allies should endeavour to purchase their oil from countries that are friends, and not enemies, of freedom.

We in BC will watch how it all plays out as the 2 provinces are linked closely. both relying heavily on natural resources to provide a large portion of tax dollars needed to make it all work. These tax dollars and royalties were created by the industries supported by Alberta’s previous party.

Let’s not forget how Alberta progressed from being a have-not province to one where Quebec, Ontario and Eastern Canada eagerly reached into the pockets of Alberta in the form of transfer payments to central and eastern Canada. The money for the transfer payments was gained under a right-leaning government.

Alberta has no sales tax and a right-leaning government did not introduce it.

All provinces that clamour for Alberta’s money are all taxed to the limit and can only wish they had the same natural resource base to develop. In the 80’s Trudeau and LaLonde, a leftist Liberal government from Ottawa tried to take control of Alberta’s oil …… a right-wing government from Alberta kept the resource for Albertans.

A right leaning government helped Alberta to prosper for 4 decades.

Alberta’s previous ruling party has nothing to be ashamed of as they made Alberta into one of the most prosperous provinces in Canada.

Falkland AGM notes

The Annual General Meeting of the Falkland/ Westwold First Responders was held on April 26 in Falkland. Present were Rene Talbot Regional Director Columbia Shuswap to conduct the elections. Items on the agenda included a discussion on the government’s plan to install paramedics in small towns with no medical services. In all likelihood this plan will not include Falkland as they do not have the facilities and personnel to achieve that goal. The secretary advised the members that the lottery people phoned in order to get our branch signed up for computer run lottery with ticket sales, prize disbursement run by the government. The secretary informed them that lotteries will be run by the society as has been done in the past. However she felt that inevitably the lottery will get their own way in the end. The branch will be running a food booth at the stampede even though last year was a disaster for all the concessions. Funding activities were discussed and it was decided to organize a duck race down Bolean Creek once spring run-off has eased. Mr. Talbot advised the members that the funding procedures have changed in regard to funding from the Regional District with stricter regulations with regard to project requests.

The elections followed with positions being filled by acclamation. President - Joan Berg; Vice President - Brad Caldwell, Secretary Treasurer - Judy Vandergucht, and four Directors: Mitch Hunter, Diane Frank, Gerald Edwards, and Lori Sunday.

MORE KETCHUP ‘N FRIES HAVE ARRIVED!

Solar shades

It’s time to seriously think about solar shades. The sun here is of equal intensity to Phoenix, Arizona, for cryin’ out loud. If you want to protect your floors, drapes, furniture and home cooling bill, you need to put something on your windows that will reduce the effects of the sun. You paid a lot of money for all of these things; don’t be foolish and think an inexpensive off-the-shelf shade will give you the protection you need. You need solar shades.

Here is what you need to know when shade shopping.

Shades should have the “openness” factor listed on the label or sample swatch. This indicates how much of the fabric you can actually see through.

If you took a piece of blackout fabric, (which you can’t see through and therefore has a 0% openness factor), and punched holes through 15% of the surface, you would be able to see through 15% of the fabric. This fabric would then be listed as having a 15% openness factor. In this climate, a 5% or 7% openness factor is what you should look for.

In addition to this measurement, consider the Tv (Visible transmittance) measurement, which indicates light visibility, and refers to how much light is being allowed through.

I know this sounds like the openness factor but it isn’t. The Tv is affected by the colour of the shade; a light-coloured fabric lets more light through, a darker fabric lets less light through, but oddly enough, dark shades seem to be easier to see through than light-coloured shades. Don’t know why, but they are.

Then you have the Ts, Rs and As measurements. These 3 numbers will add up to 100 and refer to the amount of transferred, reflected, and absorbed solar energy. This is a big deal. For example, a dark grey solar fabric from the line of shades I sell with an openness factor of 5%, has: Ts12, Rs 8, As 80. The light grey of the same fabric measures: Ts 27, Rs 57, As16. The darker fabric allows less energy to transfer into the room, reflects much less, and absorbs a whole lot more energy than the light-coloured one. (It will feel much warmer to touch). The darker one has a Tv of 21, the lighter has a Tv of 14, so the lighter-coloured one allows more light through.

So, if you are shade shopping, decide what you need them to do. Write this down and buy accordingly. If the shade supplier can’t tell you what the ratings are on their shades you may want to consider shopping elsewhere.

I’ll post some links to more info on the website Designsewlutions.ca.

Local activities for the young and young-at-heart

Lakeshore News would like to introduce our summer journalism student Andrea Hrynyk. Andrea will be writing about Shuswap experiences and events.

The majority of people in their early 20’s assume there is nothing to do in the Salmon Arm area over the summer months, but that is far from the truth. Whether you are an active person who is always on the go, or someone who would rather just relax and soak up the summer sunshine, this list will work for you.

Here are five activities to try this summer in the Salmon Arm area.

1. Fun Hog Adventures provides an exciting alternative to simply lounging around on a tube on Shuswap Lake. Paddle boarding is a fun way to work out on the water and has become the new water sport to try over the past few years. Fun Hog Adventures, which is located right here in Salmon Arm, offers a one-hour basics lesson for $69 and a one-hour basics lesson plus one day stand up paddle board rental for $110. They also offer a one-hour kayak basics lesson for $80 and a kayak basics lesson plus a one-day kayak rental for $110. For more information or to book a lesson or a rental, go to funhogadventures.com.

2. For those who love to horseback ride or for those who have never done it, but have always wanted to try it, High Country Trail Rides gives you a peaceful experience, while enjoying the breathtaking surroundings of the picturesque Shuswap. Located at 1091 60th

Around town

street Northwest near Salmon Arm, the onehour trail tour only costs $40 per person or you can take the threehour trail tour for $120.

High Country Trail Rides prefer that riders make appointments ahead of time and appointment times are Monday to Saturday at with 10:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m., 3pm, 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. For more information or to book a trail ride, go to highcountrytrailrides.ca.

3. Have you ever wanted to know how it feels to fly? The Chase canyon zipline tour is exactly like flying, well kind of. This exhilarating activity may seem scary to some at first, but most who have tried this gripping hobby usually want to try it again. Tree Top Flyers is located behind Chase Plaza, which is a 40-minute drive from Salmon Arm. Opened Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays throughout the summer months, Tree Top Flyers offers a 1.5 to 2 hour tour costing $69 per person. The $69 includes shuttle transportation to and from the Canyon.

For more fabulous flying facts or to book your next big adventure, check out treetopflyers.ca.

4. A fantastic adrenaline rush and a great experience, Adam’s River white water rafting is definitely an activity that creates lots of new memories. Located at 1251 Morgan Drive in Scotch Creek, the departure times for May, June and

September are 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. and for July and August, 10:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. It is $58 for a group of eight or more, $65 for adults and $54 for youth. Visit adamsriverrafting.com to look at information or to book an experience.

5. Interested in wine, but do not know where to go to try the best Okanagan made wine?

Want to see how the best Okanagan wines are made?

There are up to twenty vineyards around the Okanagan, but here are just a couple to check out.

Larch Hills Winery, located at 110 Timms Road, offers 9am to 5pm tastings and tours every day this summer. Ovino Winery, located at 1577 Yankee Flats Road in Silvercreek, has wine tastings everyday starting May 15. For specific directions and more information about either vineyards, check out ovinowinery.com and larchhillswinery.com.

Orchard Park Terrace Sandy Ridge Construction has constructed an energy efficient condo with 3 different floor plans, large kitchens, hardwood, ceramic tile, stainless steel appliances & blinds all included.

RDNO seeks OCP feedback

The Phase I survey results for the Electoral Area “F” Official Community Plan review are in. A total of 318 surveys were returned representing a 16% response rate from Area “F” residents. Of the feedback received it was identified that the community is interested in exploring and developing policies that relate to (in no particular order): Agriculture; Parks & Trails; Economic Development; Sense of Place/Overall Vision for Area “F”; and the Natural Environment.

Two focus group discussions are scheduled: one on June 1st at the Grindrod Community Hall (6920 Highway 97A) from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. and one on June 2nd at the Kingfisher Community Hall (3337 Enderby Mable Lake Road) from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m.

“These meetings will be facilitated by RDNO staff and all five topic areas will be covered at each meeting,” says Laura Frank, RDNO Sustainability Coordinator. “The goal of these discussions will be to delve into the topics in greater detail while utilizing the survey feedback as a starting point. We hope to explore issues and concerns and identify new policies which will contribute to and reflect area resident’s vision for their future.”

The focus group discussions are open to the general public and everyone is encouraged to participate.

For further info, please call 250-550-3768.

Artisans wanted

Time is running out for those artisans and crafters wishing to participate in this years Arts Festival presented by the Enderby and District Arts Council on July 25, according to Neil Fidler, Artisan Market Market Coordinator.

“We urge local artisans not to miss out on this opportunity, as each year the festival is bigger and better and attracts larger crowds,” said Fidler. He went on to say that the outdoor market on Cliff Ave and Belvedere Street has space for about 50 vendors and is expected to fill.

In the centre of everything is the Grant Russell Stage with all day music and activities. Headline acts include Cliff Jumpers Dixieland Band; the return of Master Drummer David Thiaw; Chris Stevens bluegrass duo; and Armonia, a talented group of young musicians from Vernon.

There is a food court on Cliff Ave and the Lions Pancake Breakfast on Belvedere Street followed by a hamburger BBQ put on by the Enderby Legion.

There will be an art auction and children’s painting activity in the courtyard at the Courtyard Gallery on Belvedere Street. The annual Snapshots and Shutterbugs Photo Contest will be displayed at the new Arts Centre on Cliff Ave. Face painting, games, entertainment and a bouncy castle will highlight the Family Fun Zone in Belvidere Park.

To register as a vendor phone 250-838-0577 or email enderbyartsfestival@shaw.ca

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Dance to benefit outdoor learning

The Elks Hall in Salmon Arm will rock out on May 30th when outdoor enthusiasts gather to support the Shuswap Outdoor Learning Foundation.

The “Boogie for Nature” dance and silent auction will feature one of BC southern interior’s hottest groups, Jon Treichel’s Scattered Atoms Blues Band. In addition, the opening act will be a new Salmon Arm group called Butterball.

Based in Kamloops, the well-seasoned Scattered Atoms (below) bring a gritty and funky music to discerning audiences throughout the region. The band features the sledgehammer vocals of Ernie Ware, the slinky guitar of Jon Treichel, Graham How on trumpet and soulful flugelhorn, Neil Brun with his ultra funky bot-

tom shaking bass and Richard Graham on bass and drums. They serve up a heap of grooves with classic blues, R&B, and a little old-school rock and roll that keep dancers shaking all night long.

All funds raised will go to support the work of the Shuswap Outdoor Learning Foundation, which provides summer camping experiences for young people, as well as outdoor school programs. Since this organization was established in 2013, the number of programs has grown exponentially, with eight summer day and overnight camps scheduled for this year.

This first of what likely will become a yearly event is sponsored by Askew’s Foods, with additional support from the Salmon Arm Observer and the Shuswap Environmental Action Society. As this event will likely sell out quickly, tickets should be purchased soon at Acorn Music. For more information, or to donate items for the silent auction, contact Ceren Caner at 250-833-7593.

On Thursday, May 28, head down to the Salmon Arm Jazz Club presentation of Thick as Thieves, featuring Richard Owings on violin; Jordan Dick on guitar; Blair Shier on bass; and Larry Keats on drums.

Thick as Thieves perform compositions as well as improvisations inspired by the prolific American composer and guitarist Bill Frisell.

cinemaphile

When Ruth (Sonja Bennett, also the screenwriter) ruins a baby shower with her drunken, juvenile antics, her old high school cronies, who are all mothers now, promptly de-friend her. But when she later spitefully jokes to her sister she is “with child,” she is inexplicably welcomed back into the group. Ruth plans on coming clean, but when her dad (James Caan) has a heart attack and tells her that the only thing keeping him alive is the promise of grandkids, Ruth decides to continue to

fake the pregnancy. With her co-worker, Pedro (Danny Trejo), as her only confidante, things get even more complicated when Ruth falls in love with her new boss, who seems to wants nothing more than to raise her unborn child as his own. This edgy comedy challenges the stereotypes of love, motherhood, and the lengths we’ll go just to feel special.

Preggoland shows at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 23rd at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

Gib was born to Cecile & Patrice Bussiere in Burnaby, BC. He passed away after a lengthy illness at the age of 73 years. Gib was predeceased by his daughter Leatti, 3 brothers, Laurence, Robert, and Vinny. He leaves to mourn him, his wife Audrey, son Patrick (Kathy), daughter Kelly (Jim), grandson Scott, sisters, Rose and Cecile (Dennis), brothers, Andrew, Bernie, and Ray (Alice), as well as 8 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren.

Gib was a carpenter for 50 years. Before his retirement, he worked on the Mica and Revelstoke Dams.

He lived on Yankee Flats Road for 40 years before moving into Salmon Arm 8 years ago. He enjoyed walking the trails behind his place with his dog. His greatest joy was working on different projects for himself or friends & neighbours. He was always willing to lend a hand.

Gib asked that no funeral be held, just to be remembered with a kind thought.

Donations can be made to the Shuswap Lake General Hospital.

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

Juanita (Nicki) Johnson Juanita (Nicki) Johnson passed away peacefully on May 17, 2015 at Bastion Place in Salmon Arm, BC at the age of 78.

Nicki was predeceased by her parents Waldemar and Elsie Protsch and niece Julie Schau. Left to mourn are her daughter Shanna (Kelly) Evanger and grandchildren, Owen and Lauren, her brother Garry (Shirley) Protsch and nephew Parry (Jennifer) Protsch, her sister Karen (Rick) Humphreys and numerous cousins.

Nicki was born in Vermilion, Alberta on November 9, 1936. She was raised on a farm in Dewberry, Alberta and moved to BC in her 20’s. She lived in the Salmon Arm area for 25 years where she enjoyed music, gardening and crossword puzzles and was noted for her sense of humour. Nicki was very artistic and leaves as a legacy, her artwork which depicted peaceful outdoor scenes.

The family wishes to thank Dr. McCallum, Shuswap Community Care and the staff at Bastion Place for the wonderful care they gave her.

A funeral service was held from the chapel of Bowers Funeral Home on Wednesday, May 20 with Pastor Bill Kiesman officiating. Interment of Nicki’s cremated remains followed in Mount Ida Cemetery. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Cancer Society or charity of your choice.

Online condolences may be sent through Nicki’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

Montessori allows for practical exploration social development.

Children in the early phases of development are especially encouraged to use their senses to explore the world around them and to begin to learn the abstract concepts that they will need to master later in life. In the preschool and kindergarten Montessori classroom, children from age 3-6 are grouped together so that they can learn collaboratively and the older children can develop a desire to share their knowledge with the younger children.

Maria felt that children should be treated as capable individuals.

Classrooms are equipped with childsized furnishings, and children are taught relevant and useful practical life activities such as sweeping, dusting, watering plants, preparing a snack, and

Maple Tree Montessori opened its doors in the fall of 2013 in the Hillcrest area of Salmon Arm. Under the direction of Harmony Roberge, a long-time resident of Salmon Arm, the school has blossomed and provides half-day and full-day preschool and kindergarten options for children aged 3-6, and the extended day option (7:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.) provides an alternative to traditional daycare. Class sizes are small so as to provide the children with one-onone instruction and care throughout the day, in keeping with the Montessori tradition.

Maria Montessori was an Italian physician and educator who used her scientific training to develop a theory of education that respects the child’s natural psychological, physiological, and

doing dishes. Children take great pride in learning how to be self sufficient and they can bring these skills home with them to share with their parents and siblings. Learning to complete such tasks also helps the child develop motor skills, concentration, and a pride in his/ her work.

In general, Montessori education enables the child to explore his/her world in a practical, hands-on, and creative way. Children are encouraged to experiment with the materials at their disposal. As they move throughout the classroom freely, they gravitate to the subjects that naturally interest them and are guided to progress through them at their own individual pace. Even at the preschool age, children are taught in the subjects of math, language, and geogra-

phy, and they are encouraged to develop their creativity through art, music, and dance. By the time the child finishes kindergarten and enters the first grade, he/she will have garnered a love of learning, and a solid foundation in school subjects—many children can even already read books!

To facilitate the Montessori philosophy in her classroom, Harmony has built an open-concept schoolroom that is flooded with natural daylight and furnished with high-quality materials.

Outside the classroom, the children can play in a large green space, tend to the vegetable and flower gardens, feed the rabbit, and collect the eggs from the resident chickens.

A typical morning consists of outside free play, circle time—which might include singing, show-and-tell, or a short group lesson on the current unit that the class is studying—and then a work period where the children move about the classroom and work individually on any of the subjects and materials that are available to them.

In the afternoons, Harmony leads the children in a number of group activities such as baking, music, dance, yoga, gardening, or hiking.

Harmony believes that her classroom offers children the unique opportunity to fulfill their potential, and to develop habits and skills that will remain for a lifetime. She is currently accepting new students for September enrolments, and is happy to discuss with you a plan that is right for you and your child. Contact Harmony to set up an appointment to observe her classroom, and see what Montessori can offer. Visit SalmonArmMontessori.com or phone Harmony at 250-804-9009.

Toastmasters news

“Competing at a Toastmasters speech contest is both nerve wracking and exciting at the same time. Progressing through club and area level to the division contest against some very experienced speakers from Cranbrook, Vernon, Kamloops and Salmon Arm areas certainly pushed me out of my comfort zone,” says Salmon Arm Toastmasters club member Jenna Scheidegger. Jenna took part in the contest along with fellow club member Wilson Hlina, who competed in the evaluation contest.

If you can relate to George Jessel’s quote, “The human brain starts working the moment you are born and never stops until you stand up to speak in public,” why not check out a Toastmasters meeting? Toastmasters provides a supportive and positive learning environment where you can overcome your fears and learn at your own pace.

Salmon Arm toastmasters meet every Thursday evening at the Downtown Activity Centre (451 Shuswap St) at 7:00 p.m. For more information contact Jenna at 250-463-2214 or visit www. salmonarmtm.com
