A Christina Lake institution has burned to the ground.

At about 4 a.m. Saturday morning, the Crow & Bear Pub caught fire and in a short time became completely engulfed by flames. After investigating the scene along with Grand Forks Fire/Rescue Chief Dale Heriot on Sunday, Christina Lake Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones concluded that the fire was caused by a wiring issue.

“The call came in just before 5:30 a.m. and it was first reported by a truck driver passing by,” said Gresley-Jones. “The flames were already through the roof when the call came in. I was there a few minutes after and I could see this was already a loss. There was no way we were going to be able to put this out; it was fully involved.”

Gresley-Jones said there were two locations where the flames were 20 and 30 feet in the air.

“I parked and then did what we normally do—I did a 360 walk about and by the time I got back to the other side, the flames were coming out the walls and through the entire roof. It was gone,” he said.

Gresley-Jones explained that fire departments generally attack fires either offensively, where they send firefighters into the structure to put the fire out, or defensively where they “surround and drown.”

“That (defensive) was the only option we had here,” he said. “We weren’t even getting close enough to shut the utilities off it was that hot.”

Christina Lake Fire Rescue was on the scene at the Crow & Bear for 10 hours. Gresley-Jones said the building is a complete loss. “The roof collapsed inside the basement. Everything is down.

Nothing was salvaged at all.”

He said that had the fire department been called earlier, they could have had a chance at battling the blaze. “It was just the time of day, everyone was asleep and no one noticed it,” he said. “It got to the point where we couldn’t deal with it.”

Fire crews spent seven hours on Sunday on

Zeus

Zeus is a North Fork hound and hails from Whistling Kettle Ranch on Brown Creek Road. He was born on the coast in 2006 but moved up to the Boundary Region in 2010. Zeus is happiest in wintertime as his Leonberger cross Tibetan Mastiff double layered coat is water resistant, thick and insulates him from extreme weather. He loves to patrol his property and go for hikes at Lynch Creek and Volcanic Mt. He successfully keeps the yard free of predators. Visitors who bring fresh bones are always welcome but they are reminded to latch up the gate properly or Zeus will happily sit on the road and harass passing trucks.

Hamper program aims to make holidays brighter DENNIS TOURNEMILLE Submitted to the Gazette

There is much confusion as to what the Community Christmas Hamper Program does and who sponsors this program.

First of all, the Christmas Hamper Program sets out to provide food for three satisfying holiday meals on Christmas Day, some socks, mitts, hats, toothpaste, toothbrushes and floss for every person who applies for a hamper.

We cover an area from Christina Lake to Bridesville. There are pick-up spots in the West Boundary: Evangel Church in Greenwood, The Bridge in Midway and Petro-Can in Rock Creek.

There is no one specific sponsor of this community group. People are invited to be workers on teams that put on fundraisers such as music appreciation night, pancake breakfast and the borscht supper. We invite businesses in town to donate to the cost of purchasing the food we put in the hampers as well as receive donations from special groups and ordinary people in our town that feel a need to give to the needy at Christmas time.

Every cent raised by the committee is spent right here in town. Volunteers pre-pack vegetables, eggs, and margarine’ another group of volunteers packs the food items into the hamper boxes.

We provide specialty foods for people with food sensitivites so that no one is forgotten. We have people who coordinate the donated toys with the wish list on the hamper sheets. More volunteers aid people in picking up their hampers

or delivering those hampers for those who cannot get out to do so.

Many people feel that the Community Christmas Hamper Program is part of the Boundary Community Food Bank and this is not so. We register people for the hampers at the food bank and Whispers of Hope and various service agencies in town; but that is the extent of their involvement. The Gospel Chapel generously allows us to use their kitchen for fundraisers and pre-packing of food, the use of their fellowship hall to set up our foods, pack and then organize the hampers ready for pick up or delivery.

The Gospel Chapel receives all our finances and puts them in a special account for us to use to pay our bills.

The coordinator of the Community Christmas Hamper Program is hired by the Gospel Chapel to carry out all the duties related to the program and this person is responsible to the board of elders and the pastor of the Gospel Chapel. Without their facilities, utilities, and oversight we could not run this program.

It takes many kind-hearted individuals and groups to oversee and make successful the assembling of nearly 300 hampers each year. The Community Christmas Hamper program gets an incredible outpouring of support from local businesses to help make these hampers the nutritious and fun gifts to families in need. It truly is a community working together to bring comfort, some tangible love and support to those who are not as fortunate as you and I are at Christmas time.

Enter now to win $2,016!

Gazette Staff

What would you buy if you won over $2,000? Some lucky Boundary resident will get the opportunity to win $2,016 to spend on a local shopping spree. The recipient will have a total of 2,016 seconds (33.6 minutes) to spend their winnings at several participating Grand Forks merchants.

To enter the contest, just shop at participating local businesses (see ad on page 9).

Every time you spend over $10, you will receive an entry form for the contest.

Grand Forks publisher Chuck Bennett said the contest always generates a lot of excitement in the community. “This is a great program that focusses on the importance of shopping locally and supporting our local community,” he said. “I’m always amazed by the level of interest and engagement that this

contest generates. It is exciting to watch and I think it is great for the entire community.”

A reverse draw will take place in January at the Gazette office. Each semi-finalist will receive a prize from the business at which their name was drawn; the final name drawn walks away with $2,016. The contest is only open to residents of the Boundary.

Shortly after the draw, the winner will head around to participating businesses and pick out anything he or she wants accompanied by the photographer and sales representative from the Gazette.

“This contest wouldn’t happen without the support of the City of Grand Forks, the Grand Forks Credit Union and the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce,” added Bennett. “It is just another way these organizations go out of their way to support the business community.”

Fire, police need our help

Christina Lake residents were shocked Saturday morning to find their only pub had burned to the ground. The Crow & Bear had been part of Christina Lake for over 40 years, previously under the name Time and Place Pub. As Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones and RDKB Area C/Christina Lake director Grace McGregor said, it was a meeting area for many locals. It hosted everything from fundraisers to live music to wedding receptions. It will be a great loss for the area.

Gresley-Jones, with the help of Dale Heriot of Grand Forks Fire/Rescue, determined that the fire was not arson after investigating the scene. It was easy for people to assume that the fire was arson-caused, particularly after the fires at City Hall and the Winnipeg and Grand Forks Hotels in recent years.

Whether or not a earlier call to the fire department would have allowed crews to save the building is impossible to say—there’s not a lot of traffic on the road at that time of the morning—but it was a truck driver who took the time to call in the fire. This instance certainly does stress once again the importance of people helping out authorities.

One group doing that is Citizens on Patrol in Grand Forks. They don’t get involved with any confrontation or arrest people but they act as an extra set of eyes and ears for the police, who can’t be everywhere. The Citizens on Patrol group is looking for more volunteer members. With more members available, the group can conduct more patrols and cover an even wider area.

I may be North Fork’s Worst Driver but I’m not Canada’s Worst Reckonings DELLA MALLETTE I may be North Fork’s Worst Driver but I am not Canada’s Worst Driver.

Canada’s Worst Driver is a television series on Discovery Channel and is based on Britain’s Worst Driver, and is part of the Worst Driver television franchise.

The series is produced by Proper Television, whose president, Guy O’Sullivan, was the director of the original Britain’s Worst Driver series, and thus Canada’s Worst Driver is considered to be the production company’s flagship show.

Unlike other Worst series around the world, the Canadian version emphasizes the learning process of the contestants and the

science of driving. It’s often more serious than the other Worst shows around the world, which are mainly played for laughs. It is the longest running of any Worst series to date.

In each season, eight drivers and their nominators are taken to the Driver Rehabilitation Centre where they compete in challenges designed to improve their driving skills, in an effort to not be named Canada’s Worst Driver.

I love the show because, as the obvious advertorial just said, it emphasizes the learning of and the science of driving.

Last week the contestants faced the parallel parking challenge. Did you know that the trick to parallel parking is that once you’re swinging into the parking spot, turn and watch your left mirror. When you see the passenger headlight of the car you’re backing towards, that’s when you start straighten-

ing out. Who knew?

I certainly didn’t know that trick. But then the only time I’ve parallel parked successfully is on my driver’s test years ago. One of my teachers, Logan Morrison, loaned me his small compact and in that spot I zipped like I did it every day. Haven’t done it since.

An interesting tidbit I picked up researching Worst Driver: a 2009 Ruhr University Bochum study argued that a driver’s gender may affect parking ability.

According to the research, female drivers took an average of 20 seconds longer to park than male drivers, yet were still less likely than men to park accurately.

I can’t believe I just said that in print. So men, when you’re following me home and start to get frustrated at my driving, remember the compliment, will you?

During the day, in good driving conditions, I’m going to stand up for myself and say I do

pretty good. The speed limit up the North Fork is 80 km/hr and I usually drive 80-85 km/hr. There are many bicyclists and people walking and they deserve a wide berth; there’s also a whole lot of wildlife that don’t appreciate the rules of the road.

Yes, I do slow down for them.

I also unconsciously slow down a wee bit to say high to Buckwheat and Blot.

Buckwheat and Blot (short for “Inkblot”) are two horses who live at about five kilometres up the North Fork on the west side.

They’ve lived there a few years now and since they’ve moved in, it’s been a small pleasure to say hi and wave as I go by. They make me smile and that gives my day a sunny start.

(I do have to apologize to their owners, because Buckwheat and Blot are not their names. I have no idea what their names are!

So if their owners would like to

My night driving, or driving in snow coming at me like a kaleidoscope, I admit is not so good. Worst Driver has an icy corner challenge, but that’s nothing compared to some of the conditions B.C. drivers face. I have to remember, though, that challenges on Worst Driver are about learning instincts, and that those instincts will take you through situations of varying degrees.

If you learn to take your foot off the brake and look where you want to go, even if it’s only on a small patch of ice on a small corner in the middle of nowhere, that knowledge should take you through much more severe winter conditions.

That’s what Canada’s Worst Driver says and I reckon it’s good advice. Actually mastering it is another matter.

to the editor

Kind gesture by total stranger Editor, The Gazette: Recently I was buying an “Ugly Christmas Sweater” to cheer up my wife, who came home from three days in Kelowna with the flu.

I realized that I had brought no cash, and there was no Interact available, so I was on my way to the bank to get some money. I was no sooner out the door, when I

was called back. The beautiful young lady next in line had paid for sweater, and handed it to me. This was a true “Pay It Forward,” a kind gesture by a total stranger that I will pass on.

This joyous season it would be so nice if through a random act of kindness, the residents of Grand Forks could pay it forward when

an opportunity presented itself.

So, to the kind young lady, you know who you are, my wife and I thank you.

You made my sick wife’s day. What a happy way to start the Christmas season.

Seasons greetings to all.

R. Spragg, Grand Forks

Editor, The Gazette: Mark Hume’s recent article in the Globe and Mail (November 2, 2015) clearly exposes the B.C. government’s failure to protect wildlife habitat whenever it interferes with resource extraction or logging profits.

Hume points to the mountain caribou in the Selkirks, the endangered goshawk on Vancouver Island and the moose in the Peace River valley as examples of animals whose habitat is systematically destroyed by resource development and

logging.

One example he didn’t mention and which is of great concern in the Grand Forks area, is the continued road building and logging in one of the last remaining secure areas for our threatened Kettle-Granby grizzly.

Instead of protecting the last parcel of unroaded habitat adjacent to the Gladstone Provincial Park, the government is planning to build new roads in the area to supposedly harvest trees impacted by mountain pine beetle.

Of course, they won’t just harvest beetle-attacked pine, they will also harvest fir, larch and other species unaffected by the beetle.

And, even worse, by building another road in grizzly bear habitat that already has far too many roads according to grizzly bear biologists, ATV traffic will be able to drive right up to the park boundaries.

Where is this threatened bear population supposed to live?

Margaret Steele Grand Forks

Editor, The Gazette: On Nov. 4, as I did most days, I was walking my two dogs up Boundary Creek Road. Zak and Lea have been like my family for 13 years and we all looked forward to our daily walks, but that all changed on that terrible day.

We were walking up the road on the northbound shoulder, and the dogs were crossing the road towards me. All of a sudden a logging truck came flying around the corner over the centre line onto the straight stretch.

Zak made it across in time, and Lea was just crossing the center line. The driver of the truck made no attempt to slow down or get back in his own lane; he killed Lea. After leaving Lea crushed and her body lying on the road, the driver didn’t even stop; in fact, he sped up and carried on down the road.

Needless to say, I was horrified, and still have trouble sleeping.

That driver didn’t seem to care that he had just killed a family pet. These drivers are

supposed to be professionals, but he didn’t even have the decency to stop.

I haven’t gone for a walk since, because it would bring back that painful memory and I also fear for my own safety. Every day there are people walking, biking, riding ATVs and even cattle on the road. Drivers need to slow down on that straight stretch so this doesn’t happen again, and speed signs should be erected.

CLASSIFIEDS

Lakes are changing An article on the Environment 360 Website about the transformation of Earth’s most northern lakes by global warming did not surprise me, what did was the speed and extent of the change to their ecologies with only a couple degrees of atmospheric warming.

Cheryl Katz, author of an article with the title On Thin Ice: Big Northern Lakes Are Being Rapidly Transformed focuses Rousing on Lake Baikal in Siberia, a lake the size of Florida and as deep as the Grand Canyon the Rabble in the United States. It holds one-fifth of the ROY RONAGHAN world’s aboveground drinking water supply.

Katz describes the lake as unique. “It’s a Noah’s Ark of biodiversity, home to a myriad of species found nowhere else on earth. It’s also changing fast, due to heat-trapping greenhouse gases that are increasingly disrupting the climate.”

Baikal’s surface waters are warming quickly. Over the past 25 years the increase has been at least 2° C (3.6° F), which is twice the speed of the warming of global air temperatures, according to new research. The time that the lake is ice covered has been shortened by nearly three weeks since the mid 1800s and the ice is thinner by five inches since 1949. Scientists predict that the Baikal could soon be ice-free for a month longer than at present.

The rapidly changing lake climate is having a noticeable impact on its cold-adapted creatures, including a freshwater seal, the nerpa. Warmer winters cause the seal’s fertility rate to drop. The population of omul, a species of whitefish, has also dropped severely.

Green sponge forests in the lake are dying from an unknown pathogen and algae mats are choking wide areas of the lake bottom near shore where the greatest biodiversity is located.

Baikal is not the only lake in the world showing signs of rapid change from rising temperatures. The Great Lakes, shared by Canada and the United States, are also changing. Like most lakes above the 40th parallel, their temperatures have risen. International research reports that surface temperatures rose by 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit or more between 1985 and 2009 which lessens winter ice and interferes with internal circulation and oxygen levels thus creating fertile breeding grounds for harmful algae.

Stephanie Hampton, an aquatic ecologist at Washington State University in Pullman and a member of the Global Lake Temperature Collaboration that is compiling an international database on lake observations says, “Lakes are very clearly telling us that there’s rapid warming worldwide.”

After reading Katz’s article and a few others I began to think about what the future might hold for Christina Lake. It is not large but it is already known to be one of the warmest freshwater lakes in Canada, a big plus for its tourism industry. It is also a source of potable water for a large part of the population.

Will it undergo extreme change?

The Christina Lake Stewardship Society (CLSS) recently issued an invitation to the annual review of its watershed management plan on Dec. 8. Participants are asked to list their three main environmental concerns pertaining the lake and the watershed. My main concern is with the effects of gradual warming of the water on the lake’s ecology.

Like the large lakes I have been reading about, are small lakes affected in the same way? Could Christina Lake become more acidic as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rise? How might the ecology change? Will there be an increase in the growth of green algae? Will Eurasian milfoil flourish even more than it is now? Will existing species of fish survive?

These are questions I can ask, but not get answers to until the effects of climate change have been clearly identified and that will be some time in the future. The best I can expect is that the CLSS will continue its important work of monitoring and reporting regularly on the lake’s health.

On Nov. 16 at 9:45 p.m., Grand Forks RCMP stopped a vehicle on Highway 3 just west of Grand Forks on Spencer’s Hill.

“Upon approach to the vehicle, police smelled an odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle,” said Cpl. Richard Lanz. “The driver and passenger were arrested for possession of a controlled substance.”

Lanz said the vehicle was searched and a small amount of marijuana was found as well as an open half case of beer.

“The driver was issued a violation ticket for having open liquor in the motor vehicle,” said Lanz.

“The marijuana was seized for destruction.”

The person charged was a 36-year-old male from West Kel­ ow­na.

Curfew broken On Nov. 16 at 10:35 p.m., police observed a female riding her bicycle west of Central Avenue by Donaldson Drive.

“The female is on conditions to abide by a curfew from 10 p.m. until 6 a.m.,” said Lanz. “The female was arrested for breaching her recognizance and was transported back to the detachment where she was lodged in cells.”

Lanz said the female, a 34-yearold Grand Forks resident, is to ap-

pear before the judge for breaching her conditions as there were two previous breaches in the last week as well.

Drunk in public

On Nov. 18 at 7:05 p.m., police received a call of a male laying in the CIBC ATM room.

“Police attended; the male had been drinking and had an open bottle of vodka,” said Lanz. “The male was very intoxicated and was arrested and lodged in cells.”

The male, a 33-year-old with no fixed address, was released the next morning with a violation ticket for consuming liquor in a public place and being intoxicated in a public place.

Throwing tires at residences

On Nov. 21 at 11:45 p.m., police were called to a report of three youths who were throwing old tires onto different properties throughout Grand Forks.

“A description of the vehicle was obtained and the vehicle was located,” said Lanz. “Three youth were in the vehicle and they admitted to throwing the tires onto people’s properties.”

Lanz said the youth, who were from Grand Forks, went around and retrieved the tires from the properties and returned the tires to where they were obtained. No charges were issued but warnings were given to all youths involved.

Crow & Bear razed site investigating the cause of the fire. Joining the Christina Lake fire crew on site were the RCMP as well as Heriot and one other member of Grand Forks Fire/Rescue. GresleyJones, who is recovering from knee surgery, was very grateful to have Heriot walk the scene and be his “eyes and ears.”

“He did a fabulous job,” said Gresley-Jones. “We basically had to dig through the roof to get to what was underneath it.

It was a fair bit of work. We discovered where we think the fire started and it was not arson; it’s not suspicious. The RCMP has walked away from it saying they have no concerns. Their role was to make sure there was no arson.”

Gresley-Jones said they could see where electrical wires running from a sub-panel onto the floor arced and burned off in two locations. “We got an electrician in to look at it,” he said. “It’s a three-phase system in that structure which is significantly different than a house.

I’m not an electrician but this fellow said that when they blow, it’s quite a powerful arc and it actually welds the wire together.”

The electrician told Gresley-Jones that the system was stapled to the floor joints. “He said if steel touches steel than it’s going to arc,” said GresleyJones.

Gresley-Jones said the electrician explained why the fire occurred now even though the business had been operating since the mid-1970s.

“He said it’s a public building, it’s a dance floor, there’s always movement and vibrations,” he said. “After a period of time, if that staple ubs through and touches steel, it explodes.”

Gresley-Jones said the Crow and Bear pub fire will be re-

ported as a non-suspicious fire.

“I can pinpoint the exact area of origin but I will say I suspect it was caused by the wiring because I cannot absolutely prove it,” he said, “but it makes absolute sense.”

There was no one in the building at the time of the fire and no injuries. Gresley-Jones

Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones

said no nearby buildings were in any direct danger. “There’s a new business going up beside it and we were keeping a watchful eye on that during the fire because there were a lot of hot brands flying that way as well as towards the bush behind.

With the temperature the way it was, and it was a steel roof on that structure beside it, any embers were going out almost immediately. So there was no concerns but we were certainly mindful of it.”

Gresley-Jones said he had no idea what the amount of damage that occured. He said the insurance investigators would take over. He said the loss of the Crow & Bear would be a tough one for the community.

“It’s been there since 1974,” he said. “It went by the name Time and Place for years. The current owners bought it in 2012 and changed the name. It’s a landmark. There have been a

lot of activity there from fundraising events, to it being a bar and restaurant. There’s been funerals there. It’s definitely a key building in this community. Not only have we lost that as a town but the people running it have lost their livelihood.

They’re understandably quite upset about this.”

Although their are other licensed establishments, the Crow & Bear was the only pub at Christina Lake. Grace McGregor, Christina Lake representative and board chair for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, was there for the pub’s original grand opening as the Time and Place.

“Those of us who have been here a long time remember when it was built,” she said. “I remember being at the opening.

It was a big thing for this area.

It became quite an icon. There were nights that you couldn’t even get in during the summer.

There were line-ups outside the door and around the corner to get in that place.”

McGregor said she has seen a lot of people reminiscing about the pub, especially on social media. “A lot of people remember that,” she said. “There were great stories made there. People remember meeting friends there. That kind of thing. It’s an icon that is now gone. It was a landmark at Christina Lake.”

McGregor said the loss the Crow & Bear will leave a blank space in the community. She said the whole community of Christina Lake is in shock at losing such an iconic landmark.

“That feeling as you drive by, ‘I remember when…,’ and what a hole that leaves in the community when something like this happens,” she said.

“It just leaves a big hole in the community every time you lose a landmark and the Crow & Bear was one of those.”

Boundary Lodge houses 17 residents and is considered assisted living. Although the lodge has been around since 1970, it wasn’t until Dec. 1, 2005 that it was taken over by the Grand Forks and District Housing Society (GFDHS) and reopened as an assisted living facility.

The society was formed in 1995 in order to obtain funding from the B.C. Real Estate Foundation for a needs assessment of housing for the City of Grand Forks.

In 1999, the society split in two in order to accommodate the operation and management of the Gables, which opened in December 1999. The Gables, which featured 25 units of affordable family housing units, would be operated under the Gables Society, while The Grand Forks and District Housing Society would look at other opportunities for providing housing in the area.

“In 2003, our society was approached by Interior Health to operate an assisted living facility,” said Judith Lloyd, chair of GFDHS. “The federal government was providing funding for senior’s housing (specifically assisted living). Assisted living was a new concept for B.C. It was determined that Grand Forks would receive some federal capital funding for 17 units.”

The old Boundary Lodge, which was a 31-unit nursing home, was to be the recipient of the conversion from nursing home to assisted living facility.

phased out and completely shut down,” said Lloyd. “They phased it out because Hardy View was being built and they figured it was a better building.

Then a few years later the government of the day said we’re behind the times, we don’t have anything for assisted living. The federal government put some funds together and matched funds with the provincial government and partnerships were formed.”

Partnering for the project with GFDHS were B.C. Housing and Interior Health (IH).

IH takes care of personal care and part of the hospitality services, while B.C. Housing maintains the lands and buildings and cares for part of the hospitality services. GFDHS is run by a volunteer board which takes care of management and policy for the lodge.

Lloyd explains that assisted living is in between independent living and full care (nursing home). “You have to have two things you need assistance with, but not more than that,” said Lloyd. “They could be help with dressing, help with bathing, help with remembering meds—but you can’t be completely reliant on the staff. You have to be able to direct your care. You also have to be able to transfer yourself. You can have a wheelchair but you have to be able to bear your own weight and transfer yourself from your chair to the bed, for example.”

Tenants at Boundary Lodge are charged 70 per cent of their after-tax income. Interior Health gives the society a per diem rate for personal care services and shared hospitality services. B.C.

Housing sets a dollar value for each unit and provides subsidies when necessary. They also provide a portion of the funds for the hospitality services.

“We’re licenced for 17,” said Lloyd. “When Boundary Lodge was a nursing home it had 40 residents and double rooms and everything. It was completely renovated at a cost of about $2.5 million. We now have all single person suites.”

Lloyd does say they occasionally have married couples.

“We had a couple there that celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary,” she said. “He passed away some time after but she’s still there.”

Lloyd said the lodge is known for being a comfortable, homestyle building. “It’s quite small by some standards but it’s really quite good in that it’s very friendly and family oriented. Everyone takes care of each other.”

Each unit has a microwave and a fridge. The lodge provides two meals a day (lunch and dinner) as well as snacks. Residents also have acess to a community kitchen if they wish to bake cookies or anything like that.

“It’s quite a nice set up,” she said. “We have a very diverse group there with various backgrounds and of different ages.

We just recenty had a mother and daughter situation there.

We as a board believe that we’re here for the community.”

Lloyd said if they see a need they will work to provide it.

“We want to provide care in the community and we go above and beyond as does the staff,” she said.

The board consists of nine members each with a portfolio: Lloyd, operations management and governance; Roy Stevenson, human resources; Linda Latkin, financial management; Marguerite Rotvold, hospitality services; Henry Klassen/Irene Semenoff, community relations; Merle Vanderbreg, personal care services; George Semenoff/ Steve Horkoff, plant operations.

Joe Tatangelo is the liaison for Christina Lake.

The celebration at the lodge for the 10th annivesary will take place on Tuesday, Dec. 1 from 2 - 4 p.m. and will feature an open house with drinks, cake, tea, snacks and more.

Parade is coming to town has grown each year,” he said.

“The first Santa Parade we had a half dozen, maybe 10 floats.

Last year we were up to around 30. Canada Day we started with about 15 and are now up to about 40-45 with different groups participating. We can see the effort we’ve put in is paying off.”

At the conclusion of the parade, around 7:45 p.m., the crowd will gather at Gyro Park for the second Christmas tree light up.

“The light up is going on this year,” said Alcock. “We’re having the vehicles go the other way (to Selkirk) so we don’t have a jam up of vehicles. So it’ll all be pedestrian traffic for that one block to Gyro Park.”

Santa Claus is expected to flip the switch at Gyro to light up the Christmas trees and officially begin the yuletide season.

The theme for this year’s Santa parade is “A Smokin’ Hot Christmas” in honour of all the firefighters who valiantly worked to protect the lives and property of area residents during the fire season of 2015.

“We want to honour all the firefighters, wildfire and municipal teams, that were here over the summer protecting us and our homes over the summer,” said Alcock. “We thought it

would be an appopriate theme.”

Alcock said the local Grand Forks firefighters will be on hand for the parade and he is hoping that there will be representatives from the West Boundary fire departments and Christina Lake.

The parade committee is accepting parade entrants until Dec. 1. Entrance to the parade is free and open to walking groups and/or individuals, floats, horses, wagons, and more.

“Anyone can go in the parade,” said Alcock. “It’s completely free. There is no entry fee. We like people to stay on theme. We have prizes for first, second and third for those who stay on the theme. It’s a fairly short route but we advise people to dress warmly especially if they’re riding on a float.”

Alcock said there will be hot chocolate available for parade participants after the parade.

He said there are about a dozen registered for the parade so far and Alcock expected that number should top 30 this year.

The parade this year is sponsored by the City of Grand Forks and Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce. See next week’s Gazette for more information on the 2015 Santa Parade.

On Friday and Saturday, Dec. 4 and 5, artisans converge at gallery 2 in the historic courthouse for the 9th Annual Artisan Christmas Faire. It’s also the evening of the annual Santa Parade, so stop by before the parade—the building will be decked from head to toe, the bistro is open and the artisans will be eager to show their best work from the last 12 months.

It will give you a chance to browse their merchandise, and shop for your holiday gift giving.

The atmosphere is amazing with the 100-year-old building filled with the scents and

sounds of the holiday season.

You’ll discover beautiful, handmade artisan crafts, while listening to the melodious songs from the harp, played skillfully

by Jenn Fenn.

Gallery 2 will be hosting the bistro this year with proceeds going to our curator Ted Fogg to assist with costs incurred from cancer treatments. So come in and show your support to Ted and Andi, enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, purchase some Christmas baking, or even have your lunch.

You’ll find the artisans on both floors. At this year’s show from around the Boundary area and beyond you’ll find pottery, stained glass, wood turnings, skin care, fabric arts, jewelry

and much more.

Part of the fun is the hourly raffle. When you make a purchase from one of the participating artisans or from the gallery gift shop, you’ll receive a draw ticket. Put one part of the ticket in the draw and you enter for a chance to win the door prize—your pick of any of the artisan crafts donated by our artisans. You’ll have a chance to win every hour, so be sure and stick around and enjoy the show and come back on Saturday.

You could take home a special piece of Boundary culture, for free.

Hours are Friday, Dec. 4 from 10 a.m. - 7 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 5 from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

The fall edition of House & Home has hit KootenayBoundary newsstands, and inside you can learn about green building, freeing yourself from clutter and the best way to store your wine.

“Knowing the average home is saturated with products and processes harmful to personal and global health, I paraphrase Dr. King to say it is no longer a choice between green building and non-green building in the world, it’s green building and non-existence,” writes Nelson

architect Matthew Stanley.

In his piece Building Green, Stanley goes through the different certification programs that exist locally for green building, and highlights the work of Carrie Fitzsimons and Dave Oosthuizen.

“Building green is about designing for today and for tomorrow,” he writes.

Elsewhere in the issue Laurel Collins writes about “how to create a clean canvas for a fresh start to anything you want”.

“Creating a clean slate

means de-cluttering and this includes all kinds of clutter,” she writes. “Common clutter, as well as mental and emotional clutter.”

She offers simple strategies to rid your house of the old magazines, broken toys and junk drawers.

Trisha Elliott writes about a dream home in Shutty Bench.

The piece includes an interview with Rick Short, owner of Red Dog Carpentry.

House & Home is published twice a year by Black Press.

Plenty of creatures will be stirring on Friday night, Dec. 4, as the Santa Claus parade hits town starting at 7 p.m.

The fourth annual parade starts at the usual location at the Selkirk College parking lot and goes down 72nd Avenue, down Second Street one block to Market Avenue and then up and back to the college lot.

Bud Alcock has been with the parade committee since it began in the summer of 2011.

He said the parades are getting bigger and better each and every year with families lining the parade route.

“The participation every year has been excellent,” said Alcock. “It started as a way of celebrating Christmas and has just grown since. It’s a nice break in the middle of winter.

We recognized four and a half years ago that there was a need in the community. There was no central focus as to organizing the parades.”

Alcock and a couple of other community members formed the parade committee, which organize both the Santa parade and the Canada Day parade each year in Grand Forks.

Club carries on traditions JULIE ANDREW

Submitted to the Gazette

Long before the roads were paved or power and telephone services were available to the North Fork valley, the residents held many a social event in the three schoolhouses of the day.

One room schools included one at Sand Creek, Kettle River North and Brown Creek and served children of the North Fork up to Grade 8. Dances, box socials, teas, picnics and card parties (canasta was a favourite) were among the festivities that took place in these outlying areas, not only in the schools but also in homes. Many talented musicians were often present at these gatherings.

Brown Creek is the only school left standing and is also known as Brown Creek Hall.

It was in operation as a school from 1920 to 1957. It has undergone many changes over the years thanks to the hard working efforts of the ladies and men of the community. The hall now boasts electric heat and appliances, a well, running water and indoor plumbing.

In the early nineteen sixties Marie Allen and Nancy Tesolin, (now Nancy Benstead) decided they needed a night away from their everyday lives and so once a month they would get together at different homes for socializing. Marg Bryant, Mary Cathcart, Nettie Woolhether, Ada

Clapper, Edna Kienas and Carmen Seabrook were among those from the ranching and farming communities who attended.

These ladies formed the North Fork Community Club.

It now boasts a membership of 24 and has evolved into a mini service club which caretakes the Brown Creek School/Hall, donating to several charities, and funding a school scholarship.

The club is community-oriented and aids neighbours in need.

Recent events the club has hosted are a garage sale, tea and bake sale, a benefit dance, bake sale and silent auction. In 1983 a North Fork reunion took place at the hall. Copies of this event have been found and are available from Jeannie Galloway at 250-442-3917.

The club has also hosted several history nights and published four cookbooks. There are a few copies of the North Fork Community 50th Anniversary Cookbook left and can be purchased from Marina Pavan at 250-4428009.

Carrying on with the traditions from the past, a Halloween harvest dinner is held every year.

Children dress in costumes and carve pumpkins, swat at a pinata and receive goody bags. Guests are invited to share in the festivities.

Christmas is a much anticipated event as a traditional Christmas feast is enjoyed by all. Carols led by Gwen and Al-

lan Pauls are sung while children wait anxiously for the arrival of Santa Claus.

Other functions take place throughout the year including a thorough cleaning of the yard and hall in the spring and necessary repairs. On a sadder note, the hall has been a location for many a memorial/celebration of life event.

The North Fork valley has grown impressively over the last 50 years. As land became available people found it a desirable area to live in and new homes are still being constructed today.

Folks from every walk of life have moved into the valley and so it is with the members that make up the North Fork Community Club.

We have young mothers, retirees and professional ladies and those still involved with the ranching life. It is a diversified group of ladies and each has something to contribute. New members are always welcomed.

Men are always invited to the work party! The club meets on the second Wednesday of the month January to June and September to December. Our ladies’ Christmas meeting with gift exchange is on Dec. 2 at Jean MacDonald’s (phone to confirm location) and our Christmas family dinner with Santa is Dec. 20.

For further information about the club, phone Gwen Pauls at 250-442-2938 or Julie Andrew at 250-442-3901.

to the Grand Forks Gazette

The West Kootenay Community TEETH Clinic opened in June 2014 providing service to the West Kootenay/ Boundary region.

The need for better dental health, for those with low incomes, has been a driving force for us to develop a way to bring access to dental to our communities. Through the success of the West Kootenay Community TEETH Clinic there is a way to access local care. In TEETH’s first year the clinic served 192 people with many having multiple appointments.

Through the dedicated work of the board of TEETH and the grantors to this organization, the clinic exists.

Today you have an opportunity to help the clinic. TEETH has been shortlisted for the Pacific Blue Cross 75th anniversary contest, Share the Care, where the winner receives $50,000. When you vote for TEETH you will help us win the grand prize. We know, with your help, we can win this prize and open more clinics in our region and say yes to more people.

You wanna roll like a gangster? ▾ MYTH: Gangs have formal organization and structure: Reality: By and large, few youth gangs evolve into adult criminal organizations and most gangs are loosely structured, with transient membership and easily breached codes of loyalty. With many gang members being arrested or murdered, membership is usually in a constant state of flux with internal competition for leadership roles.

Advisory council role an honour Welcome to a new monthly column series highlighting what is happening in School District 51! I am in my first year as a new trustee and I am honoured to be the liaison to the Boundary Aboriginal Education Advisory Council (BAEAC).

As I left our last meeting I was impressed by the graciousness and generosity of the Elders and committee members in my midst. They spoke of building bridges in the community, nurturing relationships; welcoming others in and creating safe places. I couldn’t help but think, “This is the wisdom of the Elders in action”. As they spoke of building relationships with our youth for purposes of walking with them as they enter adulthood, my heart said “yes!”

There is increasingly less and less space in our culture for the wisdom of the elder.

Youth, we are told is where it is at. And while it may be where it’s at when it comes to technology, ideas, and definitely the future (among lots of other things!), I am con-

❚ Eye on

Education

MARK DANYLUK SD51 Trustee

vinced there must be room for wisdom and living in our society. We need our elders to help us ensure that technology remains a useful tool and not a life; that ideas are for establishing wholeness in the individual and community; that the future is built on the applied wisdom of the past and present.

As a fairly new school board liaison to the BAEAC, I can say that I have begun to witness that there is indeed more and more space for the wisdom of the Elder: not just in the lives of our 28 per cent aboriginal student population, but beyond as well. This is good.

In 2007 a group of people got together comprised of representatives the Boundary All Nations Aboriginal Council (BANAC), the Boundary Metis Community Associa-

tion, aboriginal parents, the school district and others. Together, they have created two successive Boundary Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreements (www.sd51. bc.ca/abed/index.html ).

To help in articulating and realizing the vision and guiding principles of the agreement, the Medicine Wheel was adopted. Divided into four directions (north, east, south and west) and four colours (white, yellow, red and black) representing the intellectual (mind), emotional, spiritual and physical, the medicine wheel reflects the whole person and community. These are also expressed in the goal of creating a sense of belonging, achievement, self-respect and pride of heritage.

In our schools we have dedicated staff, and volunteers who are seeking to make this vision a reality by giving opportunities for all students to participate in aboriginal activities, interact with visiting Elders, attend outside presentations from various Interior Sa’lish groups, and

support teachers to integrate first people’s principles of learning, worldviews and perspectives into their classrooms with its emphasis on First People’s principles of learning.

We are very proud of this work and invite you to come and see for yourself. Keep your eyes and ears open for upcoming events and join in.

Why not take spend some time at the Gateway in Midway? It is located in the small park across from the medical Ccnic and just west of the high school.

Or check out the Perley Aboriginal Education Space (soon to be renamed!). In addition to usage throughout the week, every Friday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. you are invited to attend aboriginal gatherings that include a variety of topics and activities. Nov. 27 is a Talking Circle along with children’s drumming. Call 250 442 2267 (ext. 40234) for more info.

Remember, it takes a community to raise a child…and you are part of this community.

Library has permanent ongoing sale I have an embarrassing confession: before I became a librarian, I didn’t like to use the library to get the books I read for pleasure. I used the library for books I needed for school or to get pertinent information, but when it came to the next Margaret Atwood or Stephen King, I always headed to the bookstore.

It was because I was a book hoarder. I became emotionally attached to my pleasure-reading books, and so I didn’t want to give them back when I was done. Add-

ing onto that the time-crunch of having to return my books on time, I just wasn’t interested in getting them from the library.

While I have mostly moved on from that, there are a lot of people who still don’t

like to borrow their pleasure reading.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I will be the first to try and indoctrinate you into the cult of the library, but I do have a solution for those of you who are like my prelibrarian self: we now have a permanent, ongoing book sale at the library. Due to the volume of donations that we receive along with our need to take older books out of the collection to make way for new ones, we have put out a table (sometimes two!) of

Proud library supporters Steven and Patti Young of Clyde’s Pub held a benefit day recently for the Friends of the Grand Forks and District Public Library. A portion of the proceeds from the day’s food sales went to the group, that in turn benefits the library—the Youngs were pleased and proud to hand over a cheque for $500!

books at the library that you never have to return.

Our books are all for sale by donation, which means it’s a steal of a deal for you!

We use money earned from the book sale to make improvements to the library or to buy new books (the kind you have to return). While you (usually) won’t find the latest books by your favourite authors, you will almost definitely find something to keep yourself entertained!

What’s next for the Kettle River Watershed z Kettle River Q&A GRAHAM WATT

In the last column I reviewed a few of the main activities and initiatives of 2015 for the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan. Today I want to look ahead to 2016, sharing a few of the priorities in the Plan that our steering committee and advisory group are committed to achieving.

On Nov. 19 we held a second meeting with a large group representing water suppliers from across the Boundary.

There were farmers, municipal councillors, small water utility operators and technical staff, there to talk about how we can better respond to drought.

Two main points emerged. First, the group identified that more information sharing and education was needed for water users and ratepayers in how (and why) to reduce water use in different settings. That could include everything from bulletins and columns to hands-on demonstration and door-to-door contact to support compliance with water regulations. This relates to several actions in Strategy 1 in the Plan.

Second, the group recommended developing a common approach and terminology in a water conservation and drought response strategy (Action 2.3.1 and 2.4.1). The B.C. Drought Response Plan clearly articulates a role for local partnerships in responding to drought, providing a good starting point for our discussions. Though as some group members pointed out, our strategy needs to be proactive, not reactive, by instilling widespread water conservation practices that help reduce the impacts of drought before we even get to water restrictions.

We will be discussing these points with water suppliers over the coming months in order to develop a sound and well-supported strategy that could be adopted as policy across the region.

Another major initiative for 2016 is building an online map-based interface

The Kettle River.

so the public and decision-makers can learn more about their water supplies, discover reports and monitoring information, and connect the dots between different issues (Action 1.2.1). Relevant information is currently housed in dozens of different websites and databases, making it difficult to put together a current and coherent picture of issues such as drought, land use impacts or ecosystem stresses.

Throughout the planning process, many people have shared their concerns about protecting the headwaters – our ‘water towers’ in the mountains and plateaus – from the impacts of different land uses and activities. While some point the finger at one group or another, the problems are really cumulative and interconnected, so we need to look deeply at the issues (as in the Granby Wilderness Society’s Riparian Threat Assessment) then work together on meaningful solutions (Direction 3.1 and 3.2).

To that end, we are planning to work with the Okanagan Nation Alliance Natural Resource Committee to co-host a community forum this winter on protecting the headwaters (Action 1.1.5).

We are really excited about learning more about our common interests in

Norm Ohlhausen / Abnormal Stone Works, Midway

the headwaters and about First Nations knowledge and perspectives about land and water. Stay tuned for more details.

We will be continuing to work with the Boundary Habitat Stewards and other partners to restore habitat around streams, lakes and wetlands, and connecting with planning initiatives by local governments, forestry and agriculture to improve watershed health and function.

Of course, there are other priority actions that various stakeholders wish to support or lead as we move forward – I look forward to hearing from you about your priorities and commitments. As the plan indicated, many different organizations share responsibility among their various jurisdictions for protecting and managing water, and we need to work together to ensure policies and practices are connected, consistently and effectively, by the one common thread of healthy, functioning waterways and ecosystems.

Graham Watt is the coordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary. Contact Graham at plan@kettleriver.ca or 250.442.4111.

Learning to Drive at the GEM first runner up for the People’s Choice Award at the 2014 Toronto International Film festival.

This is a good character-driven, unpredictable and human film. Sorry, no car chases or pyrotechnics….. just good script and fine acting.

This is going to be a bit of a double bill event. Before Learning to Drive we are privileged, along with co-hosts gallery 2, to be showing the 14-minute film Ellis. Ellis is inspired by the work of JR on Ellis Island. JR is a Paris-born artist known for his oversized black and white installations.

“When I started working on Ellis, the refugee crisis had not yet reached its current peak,” JR said. “Walking around the abandoned hospital on Ellis Island, I could feel the presence of the hundreds of thousands of people who passed through, and of the countless ones who didn’t make it and got turned back. I look for what’s often missing in today’s media coverage. I want to find the story behind each person who left his or her country. I want to know what made them leave everything and everyone behind, even when they knew they’d never be able to come back. It takes so much courage.

“There were immigrants in Ellis a hundred years ago, there are migrants now, and there will be some in a hundred years, so we have to do what we can to try to relate to each individual story.”

This timely movie was scripted by Eric Roth and stars Robert De Niro.

The films will be shown at the GEM Theatre at 7:30 p.m.

Many thanks to Grand Forks’ Sol Guy, who is VP of content with Tribeca and who produced Ellis.

Thanks also to our patrons and sponsors and to Maureen and Marius Paquet of the GEM Theatre and to Internet Movie Database (IMDb) and Rotten Tomatoes.

LARRY HUDEMA

For the Grand Forks Gazette

On Tuesday, Dec 1, Spotlight Films will be presenting Learning to Drive.

This drama/romance/comedy, directed by Spaniard Isabel Coixet (Elegy, The Secret of Words), features Patricia Clarkson (Maze Runner) as Wendy, a self-absorbed New York book critic and the supremely talented Sir Ben Kingsley (Gandhi, War Inc., House of Sand and Fog, Dave, etc.) as Darwan, a calm Sikh taxi driver moonlighting as a driving instructor.

So here’s how the story unfolds: Wendy is still in shock from her divorce after being dumped by her husband, Ted (Jake Weber, the classic Dawn of the Dead, Elementary, and several TV show appearances including Law and Order) who left her for a younger woman.

Unfortunately for Wendy, she never learned to drive, relying on Ted. She enrols in lessons with the gentle Darwan, awaiting his impending arranged marriage with a woman he has never met, Jasleen (Sarita Choudhury, TV series Homeland).

The act of learning to drive becomes a convenient metaphor for Wendy regaining control of her life.

Through the teacher/student dynamic, both the sharptongued Wendy and the soft spoken Darwan learn about relationships, life and the value of friendship.

This is the second collaboration involving Coixet, Kingsley, and Clarkson, Elegy being the first. Kingsley considers Coixet one of the most talented directors he’s ever worked with—an impressive array of legends that includes Spielberg, Scorsese and Polanski. “Of all the great directors I’ve worked with, Scorsese is the master of male vulnerability,” he says. “I think Isabel is his female equivalent.”

Learning to Drive, based on a New Yorker article by Katha Pollitt and co-written by Sarah Kernochan, was

Curling club’s origins began at rink by the Legion STEVEN URE

For the Grand Forks Gazette

It’s been 116 years since the first meeting of the Grand Forks Curling Club. Back then it cost $10 for a full-season membership, which is a lot more expensive than it is now given inflation.

The first rink in Grand Forks was located across from the Royal Canadian Legion, where the Harrington Apartments now stand.

According to the 1909-1910 curling club minutes: “In December 1909 the ice was put into the Grand Forks Curling Rink for the first time, and starting on Jan. 5, 1910, 16 teams from the Boundary Area (Grand Forks, Phoenix, Greenwood, and Mother Lode) participated in the inaugural President’s Cup Curling Bonspiel.”

The coveted Grand Forks Cup was awarded for the first time two years later in 1911 and that was when the real intercity rivalry began, culminating in Grand Forks’ first national team who were eligible to participate in the 1st Annual Vancouver Bonspiel. The team skipped by

N.L. McInnes didn’t win the bonspiel that year, but they put Grand Forks on the map in terms of curling talent and local curlers competed in many other national competitions over the next few years.

With curling’s rise in popularity, women were eager to form their own club and in 1926, women-only competitions began.

Soon they were hosting their own mixed bonspiels where 16 rinks participated.

The local curling rink boasts the single biggest sporting event that Grand Forks has ever hosted. In 1957, a total of 168 curlers from eight communities competed in a three-day bonspiel.

But the club doesn’t always revolve around good sportsmanship. Like most century-old institutions, it has its own salacious history as well. In 1932, 131 Sons of Freedom (“Freedomites”), a breakaway sect of the Doukhobors, were arrested and confined inside the curling rink following a nude protest along North Fork Road. Forty years later, a streaker wearing nothing but a pair of winter boots strode across the rink during the Ladies Annual Bonspiel.

In 1977, the Grand Forks Curling Club purchased a new lot and formed plans to construct a 21 metre (70 foot) by 61 metre (200 foot) curling rink that would hold four ice sheets, a cafeteria and lounge area. This new rink was projected to cost $150,000. In typical construction fashion, a year later a new estimate for the rink was set at $382,200.

Shortly after its construction, the curling club had to go to the city and ask for a bailout due to the rink’s large mortgage and shared high interest rate. The city and the club reached an agreement where the city took ownership of the rink and took on the debt, and the club would rent the rink for a monthly fee. For the first time in nearly 80 years, the rink no longer belonged to the curling club. It was now a municipal enterprise owned by the City of Grand Forks. The city had intervened and prevented the rink from going defunct, saving the sport of curling.

Imagine if this city did not have this pivotal communal hub. That would mean Angus MacKay and his mixed team would have never been West Kootenay Champi-

ons in 1988 and Don Bedard would have never qualified for the Provincial Championship in 1991. The city would have never been able to host countless spectacular venues like the 1990 Interior 60+ Masters Playdowns, the 1992 Provincial Junior Boys Championships or the first combined bonspiel in 1994 featuring 44 teams, 16 women’s rinks and 28 men’s.

The curling club even had the privilege to host several Olympic athletes. Three women from the Russian curling team, who had competed in the Salt Lake Winter Games earlier that year, trained in the local rink for the 2002 World Junior Curling Championships held in Kelowna.

The Russian Junior Men also dropped by Grand Forks and competed against some local teams. No official tallies were written up for these matches.

In 2007, there was a boon of young curling talent in Grand Forks, as both the girls and boys high school curling team secured the right to represent the Kootenays in the provincial championships. Neither team won that year, but it precipitated one of • See CURLING CLUB page 24

was made up of Randi Ludwar, Erinn Bartlett, Stacy Ludwar and Clare Turner. They won the B.C. High School Championship and earned gold at the BC Games. They then took home bronze in the U.S.-18 Optimist International Tournament in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Their phenomenal season garnered them recognition from Curl BC, who named them Team of the Year. Randi Ludwar, their skip, was also named Player of the Year and their coach Teresa Hiram Coach of the Year.

Team Ludwar’s previous long-time coach Terry Bublitz commented, “Congratulations has to go to these young ladies. I have coached many winning teams in my years, but never have I seen a team who are this good and has accomplished so much. And to think they are just 16!”

The girls’ team had continued success when they placed fourth in the Provincial Playdowns the next year and another Ludwar, this time sister Kelly, and her team won bronze. Talent must run in the family.

With this great show of success, especially from the younger generations, the Grand Forks Curling Club gained even more popularity and in 2010, it hosted the largest bonspiel in the town’s history. The 2010 Combined Bonspiel, which happened to be the curling club’s Centennial Combined Bonspiel, featured 46 teams, 15 women’s teams and 21 men’s. Both Grand Forks men’s and women’s A-division teams won that year. The elusive Grand

Atoms win Penticton tourney

Grand Forks Atoms team traveled to Penticton Nov. 13-15 to play in the Penticton Atom tournament.

Grand Forks Atoms had a record 3-0 in preliminary round. The team won their Sunday semi-final playoff 6:30 a.m. game and advance to the finals, where they beat Cas-

tlegar to win the tournament.

It was a great weekend.

The head coach is Ken Abetkoff, assisted

by Barry Savitkoff and Brody Peterson.

The team is comprised of Aiden Burch, Maddox Hampf, Ben Edwards, Cameron Bryant, Gabriella Campbell, Corbin Savitkoff, Aydn Peterson, Riley Menzies, Jack Jones, Alex Edwards, Zak Thomas and Samuel Sjoden.

Forks Cup was once again engraved with the men’s team’s names.

“I’m very proud of our curling rink,” said Mikki Hamagami, a long-time curler at the club, “and the integral role it plays in the community.”

Mikki’s late husband, Terri, and Ken Lockhart had key roles in initiating the build of the

new curling rink. “Sadly, curling is becoming less popular nationwide,” Mikki continued, “but I’m optimistic the club will attract more players, especially young ones, with our facility’s new sticks and excellent coaches.”

Given the club’s long and proud history, there is no doubt it will attract many great players.

Ski club a great experience VICTORIA HENNE

For the Grand Forks Gazette

The Grand Forks Secondary School Ski/Board Club is a wonderful opportunity for Grand Forks students who just want to hit the slopes and get some extra skiing or snowboarding during winter.

It was started nearly 30 years ago, beginning as a small group of five or six and it has become more and more popular with currently 50-plus members!

The teachers who volunteer to organize the club do a great job and with their support the club flourishes! The club is open to all students whether you’re just starting Grade 8 or finishing Grade 12, or a beginner boarder or an advanced skier, it’s fun for everyone!

Each year the ski club has the opportunity to go on a twonight trip, (open to Grade 9 and up) sometime after winter break.

This year we are going to Revelstoke Mountain Ski Resort, a great hill that I’m excited to visit.

Even though these trips require long bus rides, it’s so worth it! Last year the club went to Sun Peaks Resort in Kamloops for two actionpacked days of skiing and boarding. We had a fantastic time and can’t wait for the next trip. It isn’t just about just skiing though, you also get hang out with people who have the same interest as you: skiing and boarding!

But let’s not forget the Grade 8s, the club also does a day trip to closer hills, such as Big White, Red Mountain or White

Water Resorts, for which the Grade 8‘s have first dibs. These trips are just as much fun as the overnight trip.

The GFSS Ski/Board Club also holds an annual ski swap at the high school as part of our fundraising. This year it was held this past Saturday, Nov. 21 and all the members participated to raise money to cover a portion of the coach costs for our trip. We thank the community for supporting us!

Every member of the GFSS Ski/Board Club has an amazing time with the club. It’s the perfect way to get outside, enjoy the winter air and go skiing and boarding. I hope that the GFSS Ski/Board Club lives on for many decades to come so future students can enjoy the experience like I have.

Hunger matters to children Hunger Matters, but so does clothing your family adequately and keeping your home at a reasonable temperature. How do you decide which is more important when there’s only enough cash for one of them?

It’s been cool the past few mornings and as we’ve turned up our thermostat I’ve been reassured to know that we can afford our power bills during the coming high-usage season. Unfortunately, there are many people in our community who don’t have that reassurance.

The majority of low income people are renters (over 75 per cent of local food bank clients) and low rent facilities have a tendency to be poorly insulated and/or have electric heat — often electric baseboard heating. If you’ve just been scraping by – managing to make ends meet with help the Boundary Com-

munity Food Bank, Whispers of Hope, Blessings Boutique and More—how do you cope with months of increased power bills? FortisBC does offer some assistance for those with low income through their Energy Conservation Assistance Program but more quality low-rent housing is needed.

And what about clothing? What if none of your children fit into last year’s winter coats or boots? Whispers of Hope (7212 Riverside Drive) in addition to their hot lunch program and the Hospital Auxiliary (7239 Second St.) both operate thrift stores which have affordable clothing in a variety of sizes.

Blessings Boutique at Gospel Chapel (7048 Donaldson Drive) has a free store on Fridays

and Border Country Realty is once again holding their Coats for Kids drive. New or gently used winter coats can be dropped off year round at 347 Market Ave. Anyone needing a coat should watch for their ads once distribution days and times are finalized.

Hunger matters, and it matters most to children.

In the first 10 months of 2015, more children received food through the Boundary Community Food Bank than in ALL of 2014. November has been extremely busy so far and other local service organizations are seeing similar increases in need. You can help. Donations of non-perishable food items and cash are always welcomed at the food bank. Clothing and household goods you no longer need can be rehomed through the thrift stores.

Support for dementia Asking for help is never easy for most people. But for the increasing number of Grand Forks residents caring for a family member with Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia, it’s essential.

“You really can’t support your family member by yourself,” said Julie Leffelaar, regional education and support coordinator for the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. for Grand Forks and the West Kootenays.

The society makes it easier for caregivers who need help by running a free local support and information group.

Participants meet monthly to share practical tips and strategies for living with dementia.

Participants receive much-needed emotional support.

The group serves people who want current information that will help improve quality of life for themselves and their family member.

Frances Horkoff (nee Plotnikoff/ Jmaeff)

It is with deepest sorrow we announce the passing of our beautiful mother, grandmother, Frances Horkoff (nee Plotnikoff/Jmaeff). Born in 1934 at Verigin Saskatchewan where she enjoyed living a farming life until moving to Grand Forks in the early 40’s.

She was married in Grand Forks and had five children to raise. She loved gardening and cooking, especially the traditional Russian foods. She was an amazing cook, very often treating us to her delicious dishes. She grew the most amazing gardens passing on her gardening skills and secrets to us. She loved flowers, camping, bluegrass, old country and gospel music, often singing to her favourite songs. Mom loved a good hearted laugh and winning at Bingo.

She loved family gatherings and meals. Her visits with her grandchildren great-grandchildren were very special to her heart. She had an open door and loved family and friends visits and reminiscing her childhood years on the farm with us. Oh so many stories to cherish.

Mom passed on Nov. 12 with family at her side at Hardyview Auxillary Manor, were she had lived for the past five years. She often spoke of the angels that took care of her there, making special friends with the care aids and residence, her second family. Mom left us with a wealth of recipes and gardening advice we use to this day with amazing results. Mom was predeceased by her brother Harry in 1948, her stepdad Bill Jmaeff in 1987, her mother Nora (Anastasia) Jmaeff in 2001, her children, son Jackie in 1955, daughter Tracy Lynn in 1985 and son Allan in 2009.

She is survived by her son Peter (Cecile), son Bill, granddaughters Shelly and Jackie, great-grandson Drae and great-granddaughter Abi, along with other family and relatives.

A golden heart stopped beating, working hands put to rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.

Mom, you left us with a fulfillment that can never be emptied and now there is this emptiness that can never be filled.

There will be a private family gathering and celebration of life at a later date.
