Some animals never know kindness. The good news is, you can fight animal cruelty in your community by registering and fundraising for the 2015 Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, held in September to raise funds for abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals throughout B.C. This year, participants in more than 30 communities throughout the province will walk to raise funds to help animals in need across British Columbia.

The Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk to fight animal cruelty (benefitting the Shuswap SPCA Branch) will begin at Blackburn Park, Salmon Arm on Saturday, Sept. 12, at 9:30 a.m. The participants will walk in the Salmon Arm Fall Fair Parade starting at 10:45 a.m. Come out to see friendly faces and wagging tails!

Generously supported by local sponsors, EZ Rock 91.5 FM, Integrity Roofing, Jacobson Ford, Okanagan Cremation, Salmon Arm Observer, Shuswap Veterinary Clinic, Sorrento Parts & Service and Tina Cosman & Associates, the event brings animal lovers and their furry friends from all walks of life together for a great time as well as a fantastic cause.

“This is the largest single event to help fight animal cruelty in British Columbia,” says Krista Constantineau, BC SPCA manager of fundraising events. “We are overwhelmed by the participation each year – it’s so great to see thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals – and the great news is, this year, registration numbers are up!

Prairie duo to perform at Haney

On Thursday, September 10, R. J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum is proud to present Prairie sweethearts, Belle Plaine and Blake Berglund in concert.

The Grant MacEwan alumna jazz singer and cowboy songwriter don’t only complement each other vocally, but their onstage chemistry is infectious. They have individually released numerous studio albums, toured nationally and developed brands recognized industry-wide, while always staying true to their Saskatchewan roots. On Friday, September 4, Belle and Blake will release their limited edition, double-single take on two Zachary Lucky penned tracks. The production of their 70s inspired 7” vinyl was overseen by Jason Plumb and recorded at CBC Studio One in Regina, Saskatchewan.

Belle and Blake are spending the month of September on the road promoting their first vinyl release. Their unique style is a result of amalgamating their bands. Jeremy Sauer (keys) and Elizabeth Curry (bass) are Belle Plaine’s regular sidemen, and split musicianship duties with Berglund’s Vultures, Steve Leidal (drums) and Bryce Lewis (electric guitar). The sound is a soulful twang. Lead and harmony vocals are traded with ease, and compliment both Berglund and Plaine’s respective styles.

Raised in the farming community of Fosston, Saskatchewan, Belle Plaine’s distinctive sound draws from her musical background: classical

vocal training, jazz/contemporary music study and a history of live performance reaching back to her country upbringing. Her singular and textured voice lends itself to various styles of music, from outlaw country to 1940’s swing. Belle Plaine was named Emerging Artist at the 2014 Regina Mayor’s Arts and Business Awards.

Raised in the Moose Mountains, deep in Saskatchewan’s southeast corner, Berglund confidently launched his career as a teenager by drawing on the defining experiences of his youth: classical piano training, a fervent love of the Seattle grunge rock movement and the responsibility of tending 200 horses on his family ranch.

Berglund was named Roots Artist of the Year at the 2013 Saskatchewan Country Music Awards.

Tickets for Prairie sweethearts, Belle Plaine and Blake Berglund in concert may be purchased at R.J. Haney Heritage Village, Askew’s Foods at the checkout or, to charge by phone, call 250-832-5243. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and the show starts at 6:30 p.m.

For more information on this and other events at Haney, visit www.salmonarmmuseum.org or like them at facebook.com/Haneyheritage. R. J. Haney Heritage Village is located at 751 Highway 97B, Salmon Arm, across from Drivers Car and Truck Sales.

For more information on Belle Plaine and Blake Berglund visit www.belleplainemusic.com and www.blakeberglund.com.

Celebrity Meet & Greet Fundraiser will take place 10 a.m. to 12 noon, and all proceeds will go to the Vernon & District Canadian Mental Health Association.

LEVEL OF RIVERS & SHUSWAP LAKE WERE LOWERED TO ALLOW MARINE TRAVEL When Jack Brooke’s second uncle came to Salmon Arm in 1898, he found the Salmon River so full of salmon that he could almost walk over it. The town’s first wharf was built in 1907 and steamers docked there all summer.

Things changed, I wrote in this column on Nov. 8, 1987.

The Salmon River has only the odd salmon, the lake level is so low that flat-bottomed houseboats cannot come to the new wharf, and the channel is nearly dry this fall.

The level of Shuswap Lake is VERY low, I wrote then.

Near the wharf at Salmon Arm, one can see silt that was deposited through a hose during dredging operations years ago. Near the Squilax bridge you can see piles of earth on either side of the bank where river bottom was dredged and deposited to lower the river.

LITTLE RIVER WAS DREDGED IN EARLY FIFTIES Shuswap Lake flooded in 1948 and it changed everything on the lake. Silt from the Salmon Valley was carried everywhere. The water was so high that it covered the railway tracks and trains crawled through Salmon Arm as if they were rolling on water.

In the early fifties, a dredge worked to provide a channel for navigation between Shuswap Lake and Kamloops. And the river between Chase and Kamloops was dredged, too, I wrote in 1987. It was lowered five to eight feet. After that, the level of Shuswap Lake was about four feet lower and mud flats began to appear near Salmon Arm. SEE A PICTURE OF THE RUBBER DAM Bridgestone promoted a rubber dam for water control.

Compared with steel gates, it is lower in cost, has exceptional reliability, and is virtually maintenance-free. To see a sketch, go to the Lakeshore News office and pick up the bound book of 1988 copies of Salmon Arm Shoppers’ Guides. Go to the March 21 issue and turn to page 21.

TAKE A RIDE 20 KM HIGH IN A PNEUMATIC ELEVATOR Last week a Canadian space company was given the patent by the U.S. to build a 20-km tower for astronauts to be sent directly into the stratosphere. The pneumatic tube will have a space elevator that can carry 12 people.

CEO Caroline Roberts said the tower will be used for communications, tourism, and the production of electricity from wind. See pictures by googling Thoth Technology.

SUPPORT FOR GRINDROD SENIORS Grindrod seniors are able to get services from Enderby and Sicamous according to a report in the Okanagan Advertiser of a meeting held at the Grindrod Recreation Centre. It was hosted by Carol Domshy, Grindrod seniors’ group co-ordinator.

Susan Kendall, senior program co-ordinator at the Enderby & District Community Resource Centre, said Enderby’s sunshine phone line is available to Grindrod seniors. Each would be connected with a phone buddy who would check in with the senior every day for a short chat.

Janet McClean-Senft, executive director at Eagle Valley Community Support Centre in Sicamous, said Grindrod seniors are covered under many of the Better at Home programs.

Carol Domshy said more meetings for seniors will be held so they will know of programs that are available. She said a seniors’ support group is needed because Grindrod has no bus or taxi service to get them to Enderby, Salmon Arm or Vernon.

ROCK CREEK CAN LEARN FROM BARRIERE Over 30 homes in Rock Creek were lost during a recent forest fire that was probably started by a discarded cigarette butt. Rock Creek is located at the south end of the Okanagan Valley, not far from the U.S. border. People who lost their homes are not sure if they will rebuild.

In 2003, Barriere, located east of Kamloops, lost many homes and businesses during a major human-caused forest fire. It destroyed both homes and industry, most notably a sawmill that was a large local employer.

On August 19, CBC radio interviewed a woman from Barriere on how they coped after the huge loss. She said the community pulled together, formed committees, and helped one another. There was always someone they knew and trusted, to ask for help, someone who could break through the red tape. A year later, much was done in the recovery, and two years later, residents hardly knew there had been a huge loss.

KINDALE THRIFT SHOP RECYCLES ONLY CLOTHING Their brochure will be re-written to emphasize that Kindale Thrift Shop in Salmon Arm and Armstrong recycles clothing only. People in Salmon Arm have been so generous. After they read here that it recycles, some people have been delivering newspapers, tin cans, etc., but they don’t recycle those. Take them to bins at Bill’s Bottle Depot or at one of CSRD’s landfill sites or garbage collection places.

Kindale can always use more volunteers at the Salmon Arm store. It has two paid employees and many volunteers who do the same jobs of being on cash, sorting donations and filling displays. Fill an application form at the store.

GREATEST NUMBER OF HOCKEY PLAYERS RETURNING At a Silverbacks’ town hall meeting in the city’s council chambers on Aug. 18, Troy Mick, president and general manager, said this year sees the greatest number of players coming back for the season. They liked the community, the fans, the facility, and the staff. They do not get paid. They play for the experience and for the potential to move up in the hockey world.

The players introduced themselves and said what they did over the summer. Two of them were encouraged to show a tattoo on their right upper arms, and each player was applauded.

CAR TROUBLE IN CALGARY I had a wonderful time at a Ukrainian Festival in Andrew, Alberta last weekend, and visited with a few relatives from Edmonton and in Calgary. Just before leaving for home, I filled the car with gas in Calgary, then couldn’t get the key to work in the ignition. It happened before, in Salmon Arm a year ago. Doug Toop of Master Locksmith Services sprayed it and got it working, but said it might need a new ignition assembly.

In Calgary, locksmiths do not work on SmartCars so I had the car towed three blocks to a Mercedes Benz dealership. Bad news, it needed a new ignition assembly but they are on back order from Germany. It might take 10 days to arrive. A company shuttle took me to the bus depot and on Monday I took a 7 p.m. Greyhound bus to Salmon Arm. Alberta was very smoky for three days from forest fires in the State of Washington. I was glad I wasn’t driving through smoke at night.

ARRIVING IN BEAUTIFUL SALMON ARM AT NIGHT Greyhound to Vancouver was full, and it has strict rules that passengers must obey, so it was a pleasant journey. I will use the bus again.

Arriving in Salmon Arm at night is impressive. The lights of the city are so welcoming! We are fortunate to have Salmon Am Taxi that arrives at the bus depot within 10 minutes of being phoned. Cars are clean and drivers are pleasant.

How convenient it is to have Budget’s ad on the front page of Lakeshore News! I was able to phone and reserve a rental car in the middle of the night with an employee who had never heard of Salmon Arm. She gave me a quote for 10 days, and said a small car would be ready for me tomorrow at 1 p.m. When I called the local office at 1 p.m. to see if the car was there, I was told I had booked it for the next day.

That was okay. I had time to listen to phone messages, respond to emails, and rest from the night journey. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

The buzz at Pharmasave

Salmon Arm’s Pharmasave launched their Pharmasave Rewards Card this week.

Festivities on Monday, August 24 included a BBQ fundraiser for the Shuswap Family Resource Centre, as well as cake and cof-

fee. Signup including bonus points and a prize wheel took place all week. Pictured: Pharmasve Manager Steve McCrae-Gibson hangs out with Bee Well on Monday. Chris Faltin photo.

My oldest son turned 16 last month, and as you know, 16 is the magical age most kids long to reach so they can get their driver’s license. For parents, however, it marks the start of a 5-10 year period where they lose a lot of sleep and their insurance premiums go through the roof.

Unlike most 16-year-olds, my son didn’t rush out the door right away and get his learners. It was less about neglecting to do it or being nervous, and more to do with him having such a busy summer schedule. Either way, he still hasn’t had an opportunity to get his “L” yet.

The other day I decided to take him driving in our field for a little practice. There were a few rocky starts and stops here and there as he tried to get a feel for how everything worked, but overall he was very conscientious and did a great job.

Later that night, my wife mentioned to the other boys that Dawson was practicing his driving. They hadn’t noticed earlier as they had been busy watching a movie.

“What?! Dawson was driving? Ooooh, I can’t wait to drive,” the Junior Bean Counter exclaimed with that look that scares every parent.

“Well, you’ll get your turn soon enough,” my wife replied.

“I just want to know what it feels like to press the GAS!” he said.

Fires, forests high on local government agenda

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press As mayors and councillors from across the province prepare to gather in Vancouver for their annual September convention and meetings with the B.C. cabinet, the state of B.C. forests and the threat of fires is top of mind.

A resolution up for debate from Premier Christy Clark’s constituency of West Kelowna calls on the province to take the lead on forest fuel management, directly funding and managing it for private as well as public land. It notes that despite high costs and widespread damage from the 2014 forest fire season, the province’s Strategic Wildfire Prevention Initiative excluded operational activities and was restricted to financing community protection plans.

The program spent $62 million between 2004 and 2014 to assist local governments reduce interface fire

risk. Applications for fuel projects were halted last year when the budget was spent, and this past May the forests ministry put another $5 million in, for projects on municipal or provincial land only.

The province maintains that fuel projects on private land are best left to local governments to coordinate with their public land programs.

In the wake of beetle losses and reduced timber harvest limits, Williams Lake, Quesnel, 100 Mile House and Wells are calling for the province to improve certainty on the working forest land base. Their resolution calls for the province to “deliver the full allowable cut allowed under the BC Timber Sales program” and “complete a science-based inventory of available timber supply.”

Forests Minister Steve Thomson said in an interview the province’s $80 million increase in inventory

funding over 10 years has been focused on areas hardest hit by pine beetle infestation.

Log exports is a perennial issue of concern to coastal communities. The latest resolution from the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District notes that log exports increased 65 per cent between 2010 and 2013, with 90 per cent of exports from the B.C. coast.

Their resolution calls for a review of log export policy, which requires logs for export to be advertised so local mills have the option of bidding before export is approved.

Hundreds of mayors, councillors and regional district directors will converge on downtown Vancouver for the UBCM convention Sept. 21-25.

by Daron Mayes At that point, my wife had scary visions of what it will be like to teach the Junior Bean Counter to drive. He is wild enough when he goes to the Go-Kart track!

We always knew our oldest would be fairly cautious when it came to driving. He’s always been that way when it comes to new things.

However, that can’t be said for the Junior Bean Counter. He definitely has that personality where he’ll fly in the face of danger.

Interestingly enough, even when he was four or five years old, he would ask my wife what the pedals were for and how they worked. Yikes!

So when the Junior Bean Counter turns 16, the following five or ten years are probably going to age me fifteen to twenty years. Don’t worry, I will warn you when it happens. I might also be hiding the keys!

The tradition of waulking

Crowded in one corner stands a cluster of black silhouette mannequins, currently unadorned.

The shelves along the walls are full of binders, magazines, and books. Walking is relegated to pathways

and a lone woven salmon hangs from the ceiling near the far corner. It isn’t just a decoration but, perhaps, more like a reminder to celebrate the artistic triumph of capturing the brilliant hues of red and green.

Happy Birthday, Maja Lots of love from Mom, Dad, Moni, and Muffin

“The salmon was woven as a guild project for a conference some years ago. Very careful choice of related colours produced the shading on it. It’s made of wool then cut and stitched together,” says Ann Nikmo (pictured).

Like any typical meeting room, there is small table with coffee makings. Unlike a typical meeting room, it isn’t the central social gathering point.

Like the pioneer days, socializing is accompanied by work. This room in the basement of the recreation centre is home to the Shuswap Spinners and Weavers Guild.

Colourful wool yarn is threaded on the looms.

“When they’re threaded on the looms they’re called the warp. These are generally stronger and more twisted yarns as they have to be under

tension while weaving,” says Ann, who is vice-president of the local guild that has over 50 members.

This past week, many were particularly busy getting a project ready for the Salmon Arm Fall Fair. This year’s theme for the fair is ‘From pioneer days to modern ways’ and the Shuswap Spinners and Weavers have managed to incorporate that in their demonstration.

“On Friday (September 11) in the Active Artisan building people can come and help ‘waulk the web’ – no electronic devices needed,” says Ann laughing.

Waulking is the finishing process that is applied only to woven wool. It helps thicken the cloth by matting the fibres together to give it strength and increase waterproofing.

“We’re taking 14 yards of blanket which we wove in one

long length and we’re joining them in a circle. We will be wetting the blankets in hot soapy water and then we will put the blankets on a table, sit around the table and rhythmically work the blankets to make them thicker and softer.

That’s called ‘fulling’ and this is the pioneer way of finishing woven woolen goods.

We want the public to help us waulk the blanket.”

Julia Armstrong will be there with her accordion to sing and keep them in rhythm.

“We do three beats and then pass it on the fourth beat. Passing is important to get an even fulling to the blanket.”

Waulking is a way to celebrate the craft, as weaving is often a solitary affair, says Ann, and, in the olden days, it allowed people to interact and celebrate as well as pass on the news of the community.

Ann says it’s nice to do these kinds of demonstrations because it also gives people an idea of what kind of process material goes through to make the clothing that people wear.

“I don’t think people have any idea how much work goes into making garments and how much labour is involved. Kids in Bangladesh are weaving cloth and earning peanuts. It’s good to see how it is actually done.”

Although this process is just like it would be in pioneer days, some things are, thankfully, updated.

“Apparently stale urine was needed to set the colours of the natural dyes used in the blankets.

It worked as a fixative to prevent the colours from bleeding or running. Today we can use a bit of ammonia for the same purpose,” Ann explains.

The public is welcome to join in waulking the web on Friday

and can see the finished results over the weekend. The guild will have a booth where handwoven garments will be on display, and there will be ongoing demonstrations. (Some items will be for sale but they’re having a big sale on December 5th at the Seniors’ Fifth Avenue Activity Centre).

On Sunday there will be a competition to see who can spin the longest thread from 10 grams of wool.

“In an hour and a half you can get up to 150 or 200 yards on 10 grams. The District Arts Council is donating a $25 prize for the longest thread and SASCU is sponsoring the Sheep to Shawl event this year.”

The Sheep to Shawl is the big team event that starts at 11 a.m. on Saturday.

“The fleece is taken off the sheep and washed. Then it’s flicked and spun and woven into a shawl that has to be at least 60 inches long before 4 p.m. There are two teams, one from Salmon Arm and one from Kelowna. It’s an exciting day.”

Ann smiles and doesn’t hesitate to give her prediction as to which team will take home first place in the Sheep to Shawl competition.

“Shuswap – of course.”

SPORTS & LEISURE Community bike ride offers variety of routes

Calling all cyclists!

You are invited to join in the fun of a 10K community bike ride on the scenic back roads of the Shuswap – North Okanagan on Saturday, September 19 starting at 9:00 a.m. from Blackburn Park in Salmon Arm. A limit of 600 cyclists has been set for Ride 2015. Many cyclists registered online on the June 1 opening date, but there’s still time to register. The majority of cyclists have registered for the 100K, 75K and 35K distances. There is no limit on the number of cyclists registering for the 10K so join in the fun activities for children and families.

The annual Bike for Your Life Bicycle Tour started in 1998 with the aim of promoting a healthy lifestyle, family solidarity, and community involvement through a fun cycling

event in which all ages and abilities could participate. This is the 18th year the community bicycle ride has been held in Salmon Arm.

The ride’s four bike routes are designed to be safe and fun.

Whether you have never ridden a bike before, or you are an endurance cyclist, join in. Everyone is welcome!

This is not a racing event. The emphasis is on participation, rather than time, to make it

fun for an individual or family. Enjoy the company of fellow cyclists. Ride with your friends.

The registration fee ($30 for adults, $50

for families, $5 for children 18 and under) includes Aid Station refreshments, a Shuswap BBQ lunch hosted by the Shuswap Lady Striders, coffee, water and live entertainment at the Blackburn Park start/ finish. You will have a chance to win some great draw prizes at

the post-ride bikers’ celebration, including a Specialized bike supplied by Chris Emel of the former Ridetech Enterprises, Salmon Arm. Event proceeds will again be given largely to Salmon Arm’s Second Harvest Food Bank. Over the past, this event has contributed over $13,800 to this worthy cause. This year, Bike For Your Life will also be donating 10 percent of the proceeds to the Shuswap Trail Alliance.

For more ride information go to the event website at www.bikeforyourlife.com.

You can register for the 10K route by printing off and completing your own event registration form and dropping off at one of the four local businesses listed on the website, or call Registrar Ian Wickett at 250-8332889.

A huge thank you goes out to the many event sponsors (www. bikeforyourlife.com/ sponsors.html) and dedicated volunteers who support this event.

Storage spots

I lived in a little house for a few years.

450 square feet on the main floor with a tiny bedroom downstairs.

(As a side note, it had

7 (seven) different floorings on the main floor). Needless to say, storage was a premium; it was an old house and there were

no closets. So the big package of TP was a problem, as was my collection of overlarge Turkish bath towels – to say nothing of the books I carted around with me.

There are tons of book storage ideas which we’ve all seen – floating shelves, under-the-bed boxes on wheels, weirdlyshaped modular units – but sometimes we need substantial storage and have no space.

The solution in my tiny house? One bookshelf that ran around the perimeter of the each of the bedroom and living rooms, hung fourteen inches down from the ceiling. Over

the door in the bathroom I put a deep shelf, wall to wall. The bathroom shelf created lots of room for the TP and towels and, when filled with my books, the living room and bedroom shelves became borders.

for her computer; behind her was the stairs. The solution?

Custom-built file drawers on rollers that slid under the stairs.

The facade gave no indication of what they were. Masterful millwork.

I’ve seen drawers built into stair risers; great storage for anything. And using the backside of the stairs, almost like a reverse set of stairs, provides book real estate without taking up any floor or room space.

Why not use the space above the rafters? It’s just sitting there empty.

If you want a really unusual found-space bookcase, consider a chair with arms and back open for book storage.

And then there is Jim Rosenau in Berkeley, California, who makes bookcases out of old books.

Our forests, our game animals

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

Many of us enjoy a walk in the woods, for the esthetic virtues of different species of trees and fauna, fir-clad ridges, and meandering streams; but researchers say it’s good for peace of mind and health.

But hold on a minute. Are we placing a dollar value and profit for the forest companies (clear cut logging blocks), over basic values? After all, 90% of timber on Crown land belongs to the public of BC. So let’s take a look at what’s happening in our forests!

There are many factors at play here, such as employment for mill workers, and stumpage. Now, only one load in ten is scaled. Contractors harvesting the wood are getting pressured by the companies to do more.

These guys are up at 3:00 a.m. each day, under pressure from the companies to haul those logs to the mill.

Price fluctuation on various species is another factor. Fir is the dominant wood harvested at this time, as seen around the Adams and Johnson Lake timber supply. Further, for those hunters, anglers, hikers, naturalists, and campers in isolated locations with pit toilets (pack it in/bring it out spots), please take heed, for if you read Tom Fletcher’s column in the Salmon Arm Observer recently, he explains how forest companies/tenure holders stewardship plans are failing us badly. In 43 stewardship plans from all areas of BC, there has been little or no improvement. So if you go onto the Forest Practices Board’s website, there are 18 pages of what they investigated. Not to give the forest companies here a black eye–some of them try to comply–but they are under the gun for more supply of wood, to keep their plywood, strand board, lumber, log supplies and profit margin up, to counteract higher costs from longer trucking distances (60-100 kilometre one-way hauls). Our timber supply is dwindling, and large companies are now looking at purchasing tenure and mills in the US. As far as the BC govern-

ment goes, they are hugely to b l a m e , because their stumpage fees are low, and under the Forest and Range Practices Act, for the year ending March 31, 2012, fewer inspections were carried out than three years earlier. Fewer natural resources officers are inspecting a much greater number of logging activities on Crown land. They now also inspect dams, and illegal structures like docks, cabins, etc. In Alberta, all or most woody fibre left

after logging must be cleared or piled prior to replanting.

If you really want to get mad about what’s happening in our increasingly-growing clear cuts, take time out to drive to about the 2 kilometre mark on the 1-11 (109) 3 kilometres east of the old Canoe mill toward Sicamous. Walk like I did this week (to cut firewood), down the rutted clay road, to a big waste top pile and take in the mess. Although it was a winter logging show, you’ll see where they skidded wood across a creek. Birch trees fell, and were left scattered. Then go to company head office for an explanation! We need to form a forest watch organization, and it’s a crying shame that we have to resort to such things. We should be able to put our trust in the powers that be, to ensure our forests will be there for future generations.

Hunting forecast–an overview (quoted from BC Outdoors) For the 2015/2016 hunting season: Region# 3: Ungulates, moose: with a mild winter, carryover of moose numbers remain steady but low in the northern Shuswap region. Better in the southern half. Open seasons will remain as in 2014.

Mule deer: a bright spot for mule deer hunters. The mild winter had good carryover and prospects for a good season lay ahead. In past years, spring flyover counts with deer on open grass like the south-facing Lumby range would show, say, 22 fawns for 100 does, which would be good numbers.

Whitetail deer: these animals continue to grow in numbers despite an extended antlerless harvest. Note: Throughout all regions predator numbers are very high. Wolf, bear, and cougar take the fawn crops in spring. Hunters are not doing more to take these critter numbers down.

Region #4 (Kootenay): Elk numbers are down in the east Kootenay, but doing better in the west. There are no changes in the regulations for 2015/16.

Region# 8 (Okanagan): Continued road access into hunting locations is a big concern.

Moose: Moose numbers are low, with cow-to-bull ratios mixed in winter surveys. (1 bull can service 3-4 cows, or more), but if this is not happening, there’s fewer baby moose.

As well, if moose calves survive that first year (by avoiding drowning, predation, etc.) they will likely make it.

Curly and Red’s article will have to wait as I am head of the Aboriginal Affairs committee for BCWF Region #3, and will give my perspective on high wages and proposed Aboriginal parks.

Tight lines, and be safe on our highways and byways.

Liquor stores collect for fire fund

Black Press B.C. Liquor Stores are collecting donations from customers to help people evacuated and burned out by forest fires.

Loss of homes and evacuations in the Rock Creek and Oliver areas prompted the Red Cross to ask government liquor stores for help, as they did in the 2003 forest fires that affected the Okanagan and Thomson regions.

Recovering from a disaster is “usually a long and expensive journey,” said Kimberley Nemrava, Red Cross provincial director for B.C. and Yukon.

Customers are asked to add donations of $2, $5 or any multiple of those to their purchases. Proceeds will be used for blankets, food and water, reuniting residents with family

member and assisting with longer-term needs such as replacing equipment to return to work and helping with rent.

Since 2010, B.C. Liquor Stores have collected $1.9 million for Red Cross disaster relief efforts at home and abroad, including $208,000 earlier this year for earthquake relief in Nepal.

Southern B.C. to lead growth

Black Press B.C.’s economy will grow at a “modest” 2.7 per cent this year, then accelerate above three per cent as major projects in northern B.C. get going in late 2016, according to the latest forecast by Central 1 Credit Union.

Low interest rates, a low dollar and recovering demand in the U.S. will help the Vancouver and southern B.C region’s export and service industries most this year, said Bryan Yu, senior economist with the trade association for B.C. credit unions.

Manufacturing, tourism, TV and film and agriculture are expected to lead the way.

Slow global demand, particularly from China, is expected to dampen growth in northern B.C. and the Kootenays, where mining and resources are key drivers.

“Northern B.C. is poised to grow at a faster rate in late 2016 onwards with the start of one liquefied natural gas terminal and pipeline, the Site C dam and other major projects,”

Yu said.

While B.C. residents working in the oil sands

are at greater risk, low oil prices are generally positive for the B.C.

economy, with lower costs for businesses and consumers.

Penalties pending Lakeshore News travels to...

Runaway Bay, Jamaica

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press VICTORIA – The B.C. legislature is being recalled Sept. 28 for a fall session that will likely deal with increasing penalties for distracted driving and careless smoking.

The B.C. government has signalled its intention to increase penalties in both areas. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton announced preliminary results of public consultation on distracted driving penalties at the end of June, with 90 per cent of respondents calling for stiffer penalties for using smartphones while driving.

Anton said the current $167 ticket for distracted drivers is not sufficient for repeat offenders, who could have their vehicles impounded. Saskatchewan has introduced a one-week seizure of the vehicle for drivers who get two distracted driving tickets less than a year apart.

After dry conditions sparked an early start to the B.C. forest fire season, Forests Minister Steve Thomson announced a review of penalties for violating campfire bans and tossing lit cigarettes.

Thomson appointed Prince George-Mackenzie MLA Mike Morris, a former RCMP superintendent, to lead a similar review of those penalties.

Morris said he was considering the vehicle impoundment option for careless tossing of cigarette butts, and prohibiting people from camping in provincial parks if they violate campfire restrictions.

Fire bans allow use of camp stoves or barbecues with briquets for cooking, but conservation officers continue to find people lighting wood fires that give off sparks and can spread in dry conditions.

The fall session will complete an unusually busy year for the B.C. legislature.

Leeann Herechuk and seven friends traveled to Jamaica in early March. They were celebrating the 50th birthday of Kellie Abbott, and spent a week at the Gran Bahia Principe Resort at Runaway Bay. Leeann writes: “A few of the resort staff thought that our ‘Canadian Six Pack’ was pretty cool and lots of fun. Then we received a surprise birthday visit by two more ‘Seymour-ites’ halfway through our week of luxury, March 2-9, 2015, so our six-pack became the ‘Runaway Eight.’

The girls in the back row are Kristina Hadley (our cruise ship captain on Vancouver Island, vacation organizer, and Kellie’s daughter – Seymour born and raised), Kellie Abbott (our 50th birthday girl who spends much of her time working at Daniel’s Store and Marina here in Seymour Arm), Kellie’s long-time friend, Lesley Milligan (who’s operated Lesley’s Handyman Services in Seymour for a long time), and her mom, Carol Milligan, who has helped bring many of us to this wonderful place called Seymour Arm for the last 40+ years.

In the front row are more long-time friends of the birthday girl, left to right: me, Leeann Herechuk (owner/operator of Long Ridge Lodge – all-season vacation rentals in Seymour Arm), Diane Johnson (our “no I don’t do hair while I’m in Seymour” hairdresser from the coast), and Deb Orcutt (owner/operator of Smurf’s Country Kitchen in Seymour Arm) holding tight to that

Lakeshore News to keep from blowing away in those ocean breezes.

Our photographer was Gail Chunik, my sister from Hamilton, Ontario, and the only one of our group attached to Seymour Arm who had been in Jamaica previously.

A cookbook and spice packets are awesome souvenirs, along with coffee and rum. Then, you can try and make your own Jamaica memories at home, just like we did, even though we didn’t need anything from Jamaica, except the idea.

Being together for morning mimosas on the patio was kind of fun, so

why not make it at date at home?

Ten o’clock, on the dock. Momos – short for Monday morning mimosas.”

Their tour highlights were Mystic Mountain, swimming with dolphins at Dolphin Cove, and the Dunns River Falls tour. They also enjoyed not having to cook or clean up after themselves, and the many, many photo opportunities.

Leean receives $10 for having her picture printed, and is entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2015.

Travels To payments must be picked up in person at Lakeshore News, 161 Hudson Ave NE.
