BOUNDARY TIMES STAFF

The co-founders of the Ponderosa Music Festival are stepping up in a big way to help Habitat for Humanity Southeast BC (HFHSEBC) rebuild a home for a family in Westbridge.

A donation of $5,100 has been received from the co-founders of the Ponderosa Music Festival, Kris Hargrave and Kia Zahrabi, to be used for the Winn family rebuild. They held a benefit concert in Vancouver in November with many of the bands performing that were scheduled to be at the Ponderosa Music Festival in August that was cancelled due to the wildfires.

HFHSEBC made the announcement Monday in a press release stating that the donation will help rebuild the Winn family home that was destroyed in Westbridge during the August wildfires.

A new and welcomed partner to the Winn family rebuild project is Harmony Homes, who have donated the costs of designing the home and providing the blueprints. The Harmony Homes Boundary representative is Bryan Fitzpatrick, and together with HFHSEBC will be finalizing the design for the new home in the near future. Harmony Homes has been designing and building homes in the Boundary region for many years and has an office in Grand Forks.

HFHSEBC also acknowledged the

Despite serveral wildfires in the summer of 2015 including a huge fire that destroyed 30 homes and properties in Rock Creek and Westbridge and threatened many more, people in the Boundary stood strong and pulled together to help each other out and begin the rebuilding process.

The play was scheduled for an early March premiere.

Residential property values in Midway and Greenwood rose by just over two percent, while in Grand Forks they fell by the same amount, according to notices of assessment sent to homeowners. Of the 25 communities in the South, Central and North Okanagan, only values in Enderby (at 3.26 percent) fell by more than those in Grand Forks, while Midway and Greenwood performed better than average in the South Okanagan Assessment Roll.

(GES) reported a need for volunteers and sponsors for its daily breakfast program.

Money was needed to leverage funding already received from the Canadian charity Breakfast for Learning.

The Greenwood outdoor rink volunteers attended a Greenwood council meeting to ask council to rescind a 2013 motion to demolish the rink boards. Christopher Yates, Ray Harrison and Mike Goddard brought letters of support for the rink from Area E rural director Vicki Gee and the Greenwood Improvement Centre.

The Boundary District Curling Club received a cheque for $2500 from the Heritage Credit Union’s Greenwood branch.

The money went toward the purchase and installation of a replacement ice plant, after the one that had served the club since 1956 rusted so badly it had begun to leak.

The board of education for School District 51 (Boundary) adopted the District Achievement Contract for 2014/15 at its regular board meeting for January. The report was presented to the

board by Superintendent Kevin Argue. It provided a snapshot of data that can help identify trends over a number of years and then sets targets for the future.

The Boundary C 4H Club held its first general meeting of the year at the Rock Creek fairgrounds, where they elected the year’s officers. Dawson Harpur was re-elected as president, as was vicepresident Adele Fossen. Marijka van Kuik was elected as the new secretary, and Hanna Harpur stayed on as treasurer. Olivia Snyder remained the club reporter, Savanna Elliot became the safety officer and Danny Macfarlane and Lauren Fraser were designated snack and drink coordinators.

February Wet weather kept the spectators away from the sixth annual Snowmobile Drags sponsored by the Kettle Valley Racing Association (KVRA).

The riders were there, however, coming from across the province and south of the border to compete in numerous machine classes. The start was aided by the use of launch pads made from old snowmobile tracks

mounted on plywood.

Boundary Central Secondary School’s grad class handled the food concession this year and were kept busy all day long.

There was non-stop adult rec hockey action at the Midway arena on Family Day weekend, as 11 teams met for the 6th annual Oldtimers Hockey Tournament. There were six men’s and five women’s teams involved in the event, which was hosted by the Midway Oldtimers and the Midway Ice Maidens.

The Kootenay Boundary Hardwood Classic Senior Girls Basketball Tournament was held at BCSS, with five teams participating: Nakusp Cougars, Selkirk Storm, Osoyoos Rattlers, Grand Forks Wolves and Boundary Central Roadrunners, who won the tournament.

Roadrunners MVP’s were Maddie Baia, Kari Durban, Daniela Bergendahl and Daina Shaw. In a later tournament in Castlegar, BCSS finished third out of eight teams, with its only loss coming against eventual winners L.V. Rogers of Nelson.

Midway Council agreed to endorse the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan, presented to council by coordinator Graham Watt. The plan

Investment Planning Counsel

was aimed at monitoring the Kettle River watershed and raising awareness of its importance and promoting its conservation.

The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary and Grand Forks have also expressed support of the plan.

A new study showed that a majority of hotels in the Boundary support a hotel tax that would go into marketing tourism in the region. If the plan is adopted, a two percent levy would be added to all hotel and motel bills.

Area ‘E’ director Vicki Gee held a town hall meeting at the Rock Creek fairground pavilion to brief taxpayers on the annual budget and five-year plan. Gee opened the meeting by providing a brief overview of how regional district government works and the services it can provide to rural residents. The grant-inaid budget is one of the services provided in the annual budget and Gee explained that she expected to have about $20,000 less in that fund in 2015 than the $105,000 distributed in the previous year. Gee said that she planned to work closely with organizations that apply for money and try to get people to plan ahead so that she would have a better idea at the beginning

of the year how much aid groups would be applying for. Water was a major topic of discussion, as attendees were encouraged to comment about that issue. One resident expressed concern that water meters might one day become man• See YEAR IN REVIEW page 6

Live your dream

Tap into you RRSP’s full potential with these six tips!

CONTRIBUTING TO A REGISTERED Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) is one of the most effective ways for Canadians to save for retirement. If an RRSP is part of your investment plan, here are some valuable suggestions you can take advantage of:

A3

get the tax deduction. When your spouse or common-law partner withdraws the money, he or she pays any taxes due, as long as your most recent spousal contribution wasn’t made this year or in either of the previous two years. This income-splitting strategy can save your household taxes before and after retirement.

5. Top up whenever you can Think about contributing raises, bonuses, tax refunds and extra cash flow after you pay down a debt. At the very least, boost your annual contributions by the inflation rate.

6. Plan for more than retirement You can borrow funds from your RRSP to buy a qualifying home through the Home Buyers’ Plan or to pay for qualifying educational programs through the Lifelong Learning Plan. You do not have to pay tax on these withdrawals as long as you repay the money to your RRSP according to a set schedule.

Talk to your advisor about whether you’re taking full advantage of your RRSP, and regularly review your RRSP contributions and investments to ensure you’re on the right track for a comfortable retirement.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK

A DIVISION OF BLACK PRESS LTD. Mailing address: Box 99, Greenwood, B.C. V0H 1J0 Street address: 263 South Copper Street, Greenwood, B.C.

Tough times On November 24, 1992, Queen Elizabeth II delivered a speech in London’s Guildhall that included a description of that year as her “Annus Horribilis.” Her Majesty had endured a number of personal crises during the previous eleven months, including the divorce of her daughter Anne from Mark Phillips and the separation between son Prince Andrew and his wife Sarah, Duchess of York, Her general disdain for 1992 was amplified by her daughter-in-law Diana’s publication of her tell-all book Diana: Her True Story, which revealed the unhappy truths of the princess’s marriage to Prince Charles and, ultimately, the near-destruction of Windsor Castle, which suffered significant damage due to fire.

For the Boundary, 2015 may well have been it’s own horrible year, caused not by family scandal but, rather, by the wrath of Mother Nature, who decided to effectively deny most of the province moisture for several months, culminating in a fire season that rivalled the worst in recent memory. Pastures were tinder dry, putting a lot of stress on the grass and making the life of a farmer even more challenging. This resulted in skyrocketing hay prices in the fall; small square bales, in particular, were scarce and at a premium.

The Rock Creek fire, of course, was the most devestating event of the year, which, for many, made 2015 a year very much to forget. 30 homes were lost to the blaze, though there were no injuries to humans, which most consider somewhat miraculous. Some decided not to rebuild, due to various circumstances, but for those that are, their new homes will be poignant reminders of a day that will likely be forever etched in our minds.

It was, however, another great year to be a volunteer, especially post-August 13. So many people dropped seemingly everything to help those affected by the fire, surely making a Boundary volunteer a shoe-in for a British Columbia Community Achievement award. Nominations for the awards close on January 15, so come on, Boundary residents, step up and nominate one of your own!

Looking forward to a new year

With the New Year comes an opportunity for renewal; a fresh start that rises from the ashes of the previous annum.

Reflecting on the events that took place this past summer with the Rock Creek/Westbridge Fire, many of our family and friends to the west have suffered so much personal loss, many still suffer from other issues related to the fire. For the rest of us there is a feeling of sadness for our Rock Creek/Westbridge family, and the loss from the destruction to that area will be in all of our hearts and minds for a very long time.

The devastation of this fire also brought together a wave of incredible support from many volunteers, residents, businesses, and organizations from our community, the communities of the boundary area and beyond. Each of you played a very important role; with your assistance you ensured excellent care to the evacuees and to the success of the Midway Reception Centre, we

can say this would not have happened without your efforts and incredible generosity.

For this, we thank each and every one of you for your dedication of time, support and generous contributions to the Midway Reception Centre, what a wonderful feeling it is to know we can count on each other for support when it matters most. Thank You!!!

Two thousand fifteen was a year of beginnings and Country wide attention for the Village of Midway. Council began its first year of the newly lengthened 4 year term. Council started the year in the usual way, holding planning meetings that informed the Budget process. We than presented our Fiscal plan at our Public Budget Meeting.

Our plan was an ambitious one including beginning a process that we hope will see the needs of the Community Hall addressed, beginning work at the Medical Centre that will ensure it remains a sound building into the future by fixing a retaining wall and drainage issue, and beginning work to upgrade one of Midway’s most popular destinations, River Front Park. Although we got off to a decent start working toward our goals, most of those plans were delayed significantly as staff worked overtime to help accommodate the needs of those displaced by the Rock Creek fire.

Things eventually settled back into routine we managed to complete just about all our projects before the end of the year, with the outstanding work to be completed early in the new year.

The fire saw Midway become the center of attention as we worked to provide all the things needed to deal with the Rock Creek fire. We became home to those displaced by and fighting

the fire. We became a place to turn to for family and press looking for information and answers.

We became the gathering place locals, heads of state and others caring enough to offer their help could come to connect. The one thing we did not become was overwhelmed. Local Emergency services, Village staff, and local volunteers performed extremely admirably during the fire receiving many accolades from far and wide. Once again this community and area proved how giving and dependable we are.

The other major beginning in 2015 was West Boundary Community Forest. WBCF began its first full year of operations this year, and although they are only just beginning to see the results of the first year of work, all indications are that the Community Forest will help our region have an impact on, and profit both economically and socially from forestry in our area.

On behalf of Council and Staff I would like to thank you for your support and continued interest in our wonderful community and wish you all the best in the New Year.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year with many wonderful new beginnings in 2016!

Penny Feist, CAO/Village of Midway Midway Reception Centre Manager Cathy Riddle, ESS Designate Midway Reception Centre

Alan Stanley, General Manager of Environmental Services for the district, responded by saying that for many years there has been a lack of protection for ground water. The province passed the Water Sustainability Act the previous year, but regulations for it were still being drafted. Stanley noted that this was a provincial initiative and outside the authority of the regional district. Several questions came from residents living in the Sidley Mountain area, where owners of Miller Springs have made an application to the Agricultural Land Commision (ALC)

for changes to their operation. Resident Don Halverson asked if the regional district had any authority or jurisdiction in such applications. He added if the system is capable of handling that, and who has the authority and capability to find out whether or not the groundwater system is capable of that level of water extraction. Gee acknowledge that the issue is a complex one and that she had been in conversation with numerous local officials, with the lack of community planning or zoning in much of Area E an apparent hurdle.

“Our heartfelt thanks to the Board of Directors and Executive Director Wendy McCulloch, for their demonstration of leadership in standing together when confronted with a disaster in our region,” said executive director Bob Huff. “We would also like to state our gratitude to the national association of Habitat for Humanity affiliates in Canada. HFH Southeast BC has received financial support from as far away as Ontario for the Winn family rebuild. Thanks also to the BC affiliates in Kelowna, and Upper Fraser Valley for their finan-

cial support.”

The goal for the organization is to raise $100,000 and have the Winn family back living on their property by the fall of 2016. HFHSEBC will begin construction on the Winn family home this spring with the collaboration of key businesses and individuals in the Boundary region.

“Rebuilding will be made easier with the generosity of our community,” said Huff.
