Lúnasa looms large Top Irish band playing Cranbrook April 16

BARRY COULTER

It’s only a short, quickhit trip to Western Canada but it’s generated a lot of buzz.

Lúnasa, generally considered the top Irish music band on the planet today, is playing concerts in Edmonton and Calgary next week, which quickly sold out. Alberta fans of the band are now contacting the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook, where Lúnasa is playing on Saturday, April 16.

Seán Smyth (fiddle and low whistles), Kevin Crawford (flute, low whistles and

tin whistles), Cillian Vallely (uilleann pipes and low whistles), Trevor Hutchinson (double bass) and the Ed Boyd (guitar), play traditional and original Irish music with new rhythmic complexities and harmonic sophistication. As one of Ireland’s famous musical exports, the band is constantly touring. Member Kevin Crawford took the time to talk to the Townsman from New England, where Lúnasa currently finds itself.

“We’re absolutely excited to be coming back to

(the Rocky Mountain area), Crawford said, somewhere between Portland, Maine, and Boston. “We haven’t been to Cranbrook, but we’ve been to Banff, and we just love that area.”

Irish music, formal and traditional, experienced a renaissance in the ‘60s and ‘70s in Ireland and the United Kingdom, and an immense surge in global popularity in the 1990s — not least, Crawford admits, because of the success of Riverdance.

Beware: Fraudsters working the ‘change of address’ scam C AROLYN GRANT

BARRY COULTER PHOTO

Galactus, a titantic figure who feeds by draining living planets of their energy (one planet is pictured in his left hand), and a prominent antagonist of the Silver Surfer (who is barely visible in his right hand), is walking the streets of Cranbrook. Oh, who will save us! Wait, this Marvel Comics character is in reality Matt Glanfield of Kimberley, who is off to the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo (ComicCon) — Canada’s second largest pop culture event — later this month. Matt had his Galactus identity custom tailored for him by Richelle Casey of Richelle’s Custom Creations in Cranbrook.

There are plenty of scams out there and Kimberley resident Mike Honeyman would like to make you aware of one he recently got caught up in.

This one is a change of address scam. A crook changes your address so that all your mail gets diverted to them. They can steal whatever information they need before the victim notices something is wrong.

More commonly, the scammer has already sto-

len the victim’s identity and arranges for credit card bills taken out in the victim’s name to go to another address.

Honeyman says that this week, his parents, for some reason he doesn’t understand, received a notice from Canada Post saying that his name, coupled with their address had a change notice.

“I dug around and found out the change had been applied for online,” Honeyman said. “All our mail was going to go to an address in

Ontario.”

He has been working with the anti-fraud people, he says.

“There was activity on my credit, people trying to apply for credit under my name. If my parents hadn’t seen that notice... I don’t think they got anything, but it could have been bad.”

Honeyman did speak to the police, but was told many of these scams originate out of the country and were hard to track.

“It really is about being vigilant,” he said.

made it easier for participants this year.”

For example, the Society has set up a raffle for a trip to Disneyland, and registered participants in the Relay can sell these raffle tickets as a way to fundraise.

2016 marks the 17th Anniversary of Relay In Cranbrook and Kimberley. This year the Relay For Life is set for June 4, 4:30 – 10:30 in Rotary Park, downtown Cranbrook. This year’s theme is “Star Wars —May The Fight Be With You.” Entertainment includes a dance showcase, The McHoodi’s’, MBSS Vocal Jazz and more. Mr. Mikes will be flipping burgers, Canadian 2 for 1 will serve up slices of pizza.

Survivors walk, and fun activities are scheduled all day, ending with the Luminary ceremony.

“The decision last year switching to the six hour format was very successful, we received lots of great feedback about the central location and the shorter time frame worked great for families,” Smith said.

Participants can register in the Relay as an individual or a team, only $15 per person.

Register at www.relayforlife.ca. There is no registration fee for Survivors. Whether you are currently going through treatment or cancer free, you are a survivor and Relay is there to support you.

and daffodil pots sold in record time and pin boxes can be found all over the community,” Smith said.

Smith said that 2016 is shaping up to be a very successful year.

“Our first fundraiser of the year Slopes For Hope at Kimberley Alpine Resort and the Kimberley Nordic Centre brought in $25,000.”

Besides the open house, next week will also feature Celebrity Street team Daffodil pin sales — also Wednesday, April 13, from noon to 1 p.m., at Baker Street and 10th Avenue South, with Matt Van Boeyen and Katie Murray of The Drive and Lily Durham of The Advertiser. And Coles Books fundraiser will be held Thursday April 21, from 6 -9 pm, at Coles Books in the Tamarack Centre Mall.

And the CCS is still looking for volunteers to head up our Soggy Otter adventure Race. Call the CCS for more info.

But the Cancer Society is gearing up for its major fundraiser of the year in Cranbrook, the Relay for Life. The CCS is building on the momentum generated by a very success Relay in 2015 — the first year the event was held in Rotary Park in downtown Cranbrook.

“Relay is one of the major fundraising events that we have in the East Kootenay,” Smith said.

“2015 raised $69,375 and we hope to beat that this year. Realizing that some people struggle with fundraising we have

Music in the Valley

Lúnasa the cutting edge of traditional Irish music Continued from page 1

“It had a big period on the back of Riverdance — many people who would not have otherwise been exposed to Irish music came across it that way,” Crawford said. Many of them dug deeper into the heritage, and more of the traditional stuff and came across it that way, and they’ve stayed with it.

“We have certainly have enjoyed seeing the numbers up in terms of popularity. It’s been happening for a long time — it’s been growing from the ‘60s, ‘70s onwards — the rise of Planxty, the Bothy Band, the Chieftains, and all that.

What keeps Irish music alive, fresh and current is the interest among young players, Crawford said — in Ire-

land and around the world. It is a genre they take to readily.

Here’s a global problem, it seems — in Cranbrook and in Ireland, anyway. Lots of great players, not many venues to play.

“It’s a great scene (in Ireland and the U.K.) in terms of people making music and inventing music and coming up with great things,” Crawford said. “There isn’t a platform, as such, to perform, which is a shame. There isn’t a circuit to keep bands active. You do have to tour and hit the road.

“And thankfully North America is very supportive and very knowledgeable about Irish music. So we’re lucky that we can tap into it — and it’s what we love to do.”

The pub session still plays a major part in Irish music, Crawford said — “musicians getting together in a social kind of environment, playing music and bouncing ideas off each other. And that is really what keeps the whole thing alive in terms of getting younger people to keep playing.

“I can’t see that ever changing. The session, when it’s right, is the best form of music, if all the elements are there.

People just off the cuff playing tunes, and there’s no pressure, no expectations — and it’s such a natural environment for great things to happen, and they do frequently and regularly.”

But there is another side of the coin.

“In Ireland, our problem has always been

that the session is the backbone, but the session is also the death knell of concerts.

“People are almost spoiled. They don’t have to go to a theatre or a venue to hear Irish bands playing because they know they can go to a bar down the road and hear traditional Irish music played very well.”

A concert is very different from a session, Crawford said. It’s a different art form, with different ways of people really developing the music.

“A session is one thing, but you don’t really get to hear the craft.

With a band onstage, you really hear all the nuances, the instrumentation and arrangements, all the things you work into it.

“With some Irish bands, their formula is

almost like a session onstage. If that’s the case, then you’re better off seeing that band playing in a session — it’s the right environment for that sound. The greatest bands have something different going on — it’s not just a group of guys playing a melody and a couple of guys banging away with a bodhran and a guitar. There are things you would only really hear on a recording or in a theatre with groups like that.”

Irish music — and Celtic music in general — has served to influence other genres of music, like rock, or country. Is the reverse true? Has Irish music with all its formal traditionalism taken in some aspects of rock, or jazz?

“We’re all listening to so much stuff these days it has to have some bear-

ing on the music that you make,” Crawford said. “40 or 50 years ago, music wasn’t so accessible and people only really had what was around them as a reference.

“These days, we’re travelling more, and everything you ever wanted to hear is there at the click of a button. Certainly those influences have made their way into Irish music.”

But for Crawford, that can be a fine line too easily crossed.

“I think the trick is marrying (other genres) with the traditions, without them becoming superimposed — like just throwing a bit of reggae on top of traditional Irish music. That’s my bugbear — a lot of the time they don’t go for the subtle approach —’Celtic Rock,’ if you like, is a genre I don’t

Mount Baker Spring Concert back on Wednesday concert an advancer of Cantando Festival Barry Coulter

A

concert once postponed is back on — a preview show of an exciting journey by the Mount Baker Secondary School Music Department.

The Mount Baker Spring Concert originally scheduled to take place at the Key City Theatre in early March was postponed due to structural concerns with the theatre’s stage area.

Those concerns have since been allayed, and the show will go on, Wednesday, April 13, at 7:30 p.m.

“We’re back,” said Mount Baker Music Director Evan Bueckert.

“The concert includes all of our students in the music program as a spring concert would, but it features our tour ensembles who will be performing in Whistler at the end of the month, with the best high school musicians in the world gathered together. “ Cantando Festivals, held in Edmonton, Sun

The Mount Baker Vocal Jazz ensemble is pictured in rehearsal. The Spring Concert, postponed earlier, is back on for Wednesday, April 13 — a preview of what’s to come at the Catando Festival in Whistler.

Peaks, B.C. and Whistler (the biggest one) are non-competitive festivals designed for North American school wind ensembles, concert bands, jazz bands, and choirs utilizing some basic tenets necessary to promote quality music education.

“4,000 students en masse invading Whistler Village, taking up the entire place,” Buec-

kert said. “Adjudicators are coming; we get to spend four days performing, getting critiqued and going to great concerts.”

Mount Baker was invited to attend this year’s Cantando.

“We’re very proud to be asked to come,” Bueckert said. “This is our third appearance.

We’ve been to this festival twice before, as be-

ginners, and now we’re invited back as guest performers — it’s a cool honour.”

Proceeds from the Wednesday concert to help the Baker musicians get to Whistler, for April 28 through May 1.

As for the local concert on Wednesday, April 13, concert-goers can expect a little higher level of performance, Bueckert said, as they

prepare for festival adjudication.

“That means more advanced, more challenging and more complex repertoire that pushes the students to reach higher than they have normally. Everything’s going to be at its best.

“I’m very proud of them — the rehearsals are just mind-blowing.

There’s so much energy

and so much pride.”

The Cranbrook concert will feature tour performance groups and the festival pieces they’ll show the judges in just a few weeks.

“We’re looking forward to showing the hometown crowd what we’re going to do. We’ve got every kind of thing going — everything from the Beatles to Mozart.”

like, it’s like beating someone of the head with both elements.”

There have been bands, Crawford says, who’ve in his view have successful combined Irish music with rock.

“I’m not against that development, and we’re kind of doing it in our own little way, with double bass and guitar. But it wouldn’t be as obvious.”

Crawford cites Lúnasa’s bass player, Trevor Hutchison, who came to the band as more of a rock player.

“He listened to the Irish tunes and carved out a way of playing bass that wasn’t disrespectful to the traditions — he didn’t just throw bass or rock and roll licks over Irish tunes. “… He listens to the tunes and he hears the underlying groove. Irish music is very rhythmical and groovy, and you can always find a new groove if you listen to the tunes.

And he pulls from that and builds on that. It’s kind of a more organic way of doing it.”

Bands playing Irish music have a massive body of work to choose from — centuries of tunes, not to mention the ongoing creation of exciting new original material.

“It’s gotten easier, to be honest,” Crawford said, of how the band selects or composes its own repertoire. “Initially we were trying to pool material from every possible proceeding period of the tradition. It got easier when we started to write our own stuff.

Over time you get to figure out a little better what has a stronger chance of working and what doesn’t.

“In the early days we would literally throw everything on the table and work through it and discard 90 per cent of it, and it would be a long drawn out process, and an often painful experience. Now it’s a little bit better. There’s a couple of us in the band who write tunes, and I thing we’re better able at this stage to write tunes that have a better chance of lasting the course. And we’re always listening, and always hunting for things we can call our own.”

Lúnasa plays the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook on Saturday, April 16. Showtime 7:30 p.m.

A Twist of the Wrist

Arm wrestling club goes over the top Trevor Crawley

W

ith hands clenching the grips at the side of the table, Taden Doyle and his dad, Stewart, are locked in an arm wrestling battle — a battle of youth against experience. A classic father versus son moment.

With both manipulating their body weight as they jockey for position, the metal frame of the table occasionally buckles as they clash in a test of strength and will.

However, it’s the veteran who once again prevails, as the younger Doyle can’t hold back the experienced hand of his father.

One day, Taden hopes to beat his father, but Tuesday was not that day.

The club, which has existed for 20-something years in Cranbrook, runs out of the Legendary Byng Roadhouse every Tuesday evening, starting at 7 p.m.

Over a dozen people — men and women — were out this week taking turns on the arm wrestling table, some serious, some just for fun. When two competitors square up, it’s usually under the watchful eye of Ben Soles, who

has been arm wrestling competitively for well over 20 years. Soles is a four-time Canadian champion and won silver at the 2008 World Arm Wrestling Championship.

Doyle is a little less seasoned than that, having only been with the club for the last year or so. As a former member of the now-defunct high school football program, Doyle knows how to manipulate strength and body weight.

However, arm wrestling has it’s own appeal.

“The competition, definitely,” Doyle said.

“It’s unique because it’s just yourself. It’s not a team [but] the people around you are your team, they’re always yelling, supporting, telling you what to do.

“At the same time, it’s you versus the other guy.

It’s fun, it’s exciting, you’re bettering yourself getting physically stronger and at the same time, you’re learning how to do something different.”

In addition to the guidance from Soles, coaching also comes from other longtime stalwarts like Martin Longlios and Pete Durning, who do not

Every Tuesday evening, the Kootenay Kings Arm Wrestling Club meets at the Byng for fellow competitors to train, learn and develop the proper techniques. hesitate at all in passing along the technical aspects of the sport that they’ve learned over the years.

Doyle emphasis that strength is not the determining factor to winning at arm wrestling.

INVITATION TO BID The Kimberley Trails Society is inviting qualified persons to submit expressions of interest for the following project: Construction of a Flow Mountain Bike Trail in the Bootleg Mountain Recreation Site Approximate Length: 5400 m Brief Description:

This is a downhill­primary “flow” trail primarily aimed at intermediate mountain­bike riders, with options for more experienced riders. Construction will include approximately 70 features including berms, jumps and table­tops. Preliminary design and flagging has been done as part of the Bootleg Trails Master Plan; detailed design will be the responsibility of the contractor, in consultation with the Kimberley Trails Society and Rec Sites & Trails BC.

The project is expected to commence Summer/Fall 2016. To obtain a more detailed information package, send an email to ​info@kimberleytrails.org​.

muscle, lose to [guys like] Martin—he’s a smaller guy, but super strong and super, super technical,” Doyle said.

When opponents square up, one hand has to be on the grip, while the other elbow—the arm doing the actual wrestling—has to be

planted on a square pad and can’t leave it.

Instead of just brute-forcing an opponent’s arm backwards towards the table, strategies can include pulling his or her arm toward you first, before using body weight to pull the arm to the table.

Or, once the grips are locked, twisting the wrist to come over the top of the grip, which opens up the opponent’s hand and weakens the hold.

“You take their hand away, or you take one thing away from there and there isn’t much

they can do,” said Doyle.

“You get your position on the table, your hand the the right way—he can be three times stronger than you—if he has no leverage, there’s no way to come back from that.”

While the club gathers weekly for fun, there is a more serious side to the sport with local, provincial, national and international competitions, namely through the Canadian Arm Wrestling Federation and the World Arm Wrestling League.

“We went to Red Deer for the WAL qualifiers,” Doyle said. “There are qualifiers all over North America and then from there, they filter out more guys and then they do an international competition in Las Vegas with the best of the best and the up and comers. They have everything there.

“It’s phenomenal, some of the guys coming out of Europe—that’s their life.”

If anyone is interested in trying out arm wrestling, head over to the Legendary Byng Roadhouse on Tuesday evenings at 7 p.m. and check out the action.

Revolutionary character of the Bible

T

here is a common saying that “History is written by the winners.”

There is a great deal of truth in that saying. Until the very recent past, for example, the history of Canada was written by men who wrote from a British or French perspective. Such a history would have concentrated on the generals who won battles, the men who made decisions about forming the nation, those who had the power to make things happen.

History written from this perspective would have largely ignored the point of view of women and children or those at the bottom of society. More importantly, until very recently, a history of Canada wouldn’t even have included much about the indigenous people who lived here long before the British and French arrived and claimed that they “discovered” this land.

Thankfully that’s beginning to change. In the last 30 years or so, a movement called “the people’s history” has sprung up which tries to tell the story of Canada from the point of view of the ordinary people, of women and factory workers and immigrant labourers. More importantly, such a history includes the indigenous peoples who lived in this land long before anyone ever sailed across the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans.

The same can be said of histories of any country or any event or any movement. I applaud this movement, because it fills such an urgent need.

But long before this impulse in the contemporary world, it also happened with the Bible. Believe it or not, the Bible is one of the few subversive texts in history. It is most extraordinary and revolutionary because it repeatedly and invariably legitimizes the people on the bottom rather

than the people on the top.

The Bible tells stories again and again that those who are chosen by God are the outsider or the marginalized or the “loser”.

God takes the side of the rejected son, the barren woman, the sinner, the leper, the outsider.

For example, the Old Testament constantly urges that Israel needs to care for “the widow, the orphan, and the stranger at the gate.” These three groups of people are at the very bottom of society’s pecking order in ancient Israel. They have no one to protect them, no one to speak for them, no one to care for them. They are precisely the ones who need to be noticed and loved. God stands on their side, not the side of the powerful.

In the New Testament, Rev. Yme we need only consider the story of Jesus, who was born Woensdregt in a barn, not a palace, to an unmarried teenage mother in a backwoods town in an insignificant country on the margins of the Roman Empire.

Don’t take my word for it. Check it out for yourself. It is in fact quite obvious, but for some reason we need to have the obvious pointed out to us. Over and over again in the Bible, we are presented with some form of powerlessness, and the story is that God steps into that situation and sets things right.

Even before Moses, God chose Abraham, a “nobody,” and made him a somebody. God chose Jacob over Esau, even though Esau was the elder, more earnest son and Jacob was a shifty, deceitful character. God chose David, the youngest of seven sons to become Israel’s king. God chose Mary, a “humble servant” (Luke 1:48). God chooses the weak, the powerless, the ones without any influence or

hope. The pattern always seems to be that “the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

We have become so accustomed to this pattern that we no longer recognize how subversive it is. And then, like the Disney corporation, we turn these stories into just another sweet rags to riches story and rob them of any power they may once have had.

Rene Girard, a French philosopher and historian, spoke of “the privileged position of the victim” as the absolutely unique and revolutionary perspective of the Bible.

In South America, liberation theologians talk about God’s “preferential option for the poor.” It doesn’t mean that God loves the poor more than the rich. God’s love is for all, for rich and poor alike. What this means is that the Bible takes up the cause of the poor because they are so often oppressed in their daily lives.

What a revolutionary way of doing things. Richard Rohr, in a beautiful phrase, calls this the “Bias from the Bottom.”

Contemporary Christians dare not lose this thrust. Otherwise we are in serious danger of misunderstanding what Paul calls “the folly of the cross” of Jesus. Without this bias from the bottom, religion ends up defending propriety instead of human pain, the status quo instead of the suffering masses, triumphalism instead of truth, clerical privilege instead of charity and compassion.

The Bible can’t be domesticated or tamed. We need to read it in all its revolutionary power and listen carefully to the voices of all who have marginalized and oppressed. We’re dealing with radical stuff here.

V. Hyde Baker: To the Manor Born What’s Up? KIMBERLEY AND CRANBROOK COMMUNITY CALENDAR

UPCOMING

JANUS:

Then & Now

Jim Cameron

“J

oseph’s Prairie 25 years ago consisted of the old Galbraith ranch, log dwelling house and store, stables and cattle sheds and one small log building occupied by Mr. John Gustavus Norris, the customs house officer…In 1886, my father, the late Colonel Baker, purchased the ranch and named the place after an old family property in England.

Until 1897, Cranbrook was run as a cattle ranch and farm, and was more or less a rendezvous for miners and trappers from the Moyie, Perry Creek and St. Mary’s countries.

The population of the country at large consisted of a few scattered farmers and miners, and one and all waiting for such time as some railway company saw fit to come and build a road through what we all knew was a rich country…To give an idea of the confidence in the future of our town, the sales of town lots during the month of October last amounted to $17,500 [between $330900,000 today].

This then, in a nutshell, is the pre-history of Cranbrook as remembered by Valentine Hyde Baker from the Herald newspaper of December 15, 1910.

V. Hyde Baker — he rarely used his first name — arrived at Joseph Prairie when he was a young man. Although in later years he certainly led a life of leisure, he spent his younger days working on the farm and in the store, often filling in for his father for lengthy periods when James was travelling as Member of Parliament for the district or otherwise engaged.

Hyde carried on an extensive local fur trade, became conversant in the Ktunaxa language and was often seen in wearing moccasins as part of his workaday

Lethbridge Herald photo

A photo reprinted from the Lethbridge Herald with the caption “V. Hyde Baker and party in the automobile with railway wheels.” A serious auto enthusiast, Hyde Baker let little stand in his way. wardrobe. Hyde became the Cranbrook townsite agent with the coming of the railway in 1898, the office of which originally stood on the site of the present day Cranbrook Photo building.

As such, Hyde Baker, chief agent, principal landowner, son of the town founder and landed gentry in his own right, was the very symbol of success in a rough pioneer town. As Cranbrook grew, there were many buildings on Baker Street and in the residential area that were either financed, owned, leased, rented or bought and sold by Hyde Baker on behalf of the local townsite company of which both he and the Canadian Pacific Railway were principal owners.

Further, he held sway over thousands of acres throughout the Kootenays including much of the land along the Kootenay River. He financed the construction of the Cranbrook Hotel, the first building in the city (a section of which still stands today), Miner’s Hardware (which also still stands) and numerous other stores and houses.

Hyde travelled to England in1899 and returned with his new bride Ida with whom he had three children: Olive born in 1900, Hugh Samuel in 1905 and Edward Valentine in 1913. The children spent their younger years in Cranbrook under the watchful eye of nurses and governesses and, as they grew older, attended school in England.

Hyde Baker’s actions

V. Hyde Baker were followed closely by many of the townsfolk of the day. From his renovations to the old Baker home in what is now Baker Park in 1900, in which he added a kitchen and a smoking room, to his entertainments at home (including the newest fad of pingpong), his fishing and hunting expeditions, his wife’s socials and flower shows and even the death of his old dog Frog (a fixture at the townsite office for many years).

If it involved Hyde Baker, it was news.

His father died in England in 1906, leaving Hyde in sole possession of the Cranbrook estate.

He continued in his father’s footsteps with notable success and style but without his father’s bent for politics save for a short stint on Cranbrook city council in 1906.

That same year he

became one of the city’s first auto enthusiasts when he travelled to Spokane and returned with a “magnificent new 30 horsepower auto of the Rambler pattern.”

He spent two weeks with an “expert” to become thoroughly familiar with the machine and proceeded to drive it over as much of the district as possible.

He purchased a White steam-powered car in 1908 and continued to upgrade throughout his remaining years in the city, sometimes chauffeured by a local driver/mechanic and other times taking the wheel himself, including a trip from San Francisco to Mexico in 1912, while his wife and family vacationed in Los Angeles.

He maintained ties with and entertained numerous dignitaries and English nobility

over the years including Lord Cobham, for whom Cranbrook’s Cobham Avenue is named, and Canadian Governor-General Lord Earl Grey, for whom the St. Mary Grey Creek Pass is named. In fact, Hyde Street in Cranbrook was named for Hyde Baker.

It required the use of his given name so as not to confuse it with Baker Street, named for his father.

Although certainly a man of ease, he was always conscious of his obligation to maintain the family estate as exemplified in a letter to the Herald in June, 1907.

Up to that time the Cranbrook General Cemetery was on land owned and maintained by the Baker family.

Hyde offered it to the city at a cost of $200.00 an acre, a price Mayor Findlay declared exorbitant, offering to sell land of his own at a lower rate. Hyde responded “I have been under great expense and inconvenience in keeping up this cemetery…I thought that naturally the city authorities would be the proper people to look after it. As each grave is sold for five dollars, and one acre can be divided into 960 lots, the price asked by me does not seem such an “exorbitant” figure as the mayor would have people believe.”

The city bought the property.

Hyde Baker left Cranbrook in 1915 and returned to the family home at Parkstone in Dorset, England, where he died in October, 1932

Dynamiters coach Jerry Bancks calls it a career Longtime Kimberley Dynamiters head coach announces retirement from bench Wednesday night

Taylor Rocc a

It’s not often any one man walks into a room and almost immediately receives the respect of all those in his midst.

It’s incredibly rare for any one person to join an organization and impact a positive evolution in its culture and every facet of how it goes about its business.

Jerry Bancks is one of these rarities.

Over the course of a lengthy coaching career with the Kimberley Dynamiters, the 60-yearold Bancks did all of this and more, including coach two championship teams — the Rocky Mountain Junior A Hockey League champions in 1998-99 and, most recently, the Kootenay International Junior B Hockey League champions in 2014-15.

Trophies are meant for mantles and Bancks helped fill his fair share

of shelves during his years with the Kimberley Dynamiters, but ultimately, the greatest impact he had during his time behind the bench was on the people around him, both at the rink and in the community.

“Jerry comes in and he is so real and authentic,” said Jeff Keiver, who spent time playing for Bancks in the 1990s before most recently working alongside him as an assistant coach. “He believes in and has so much passion for what he’s doing that you can’t help but be swept up in it.

“He inspires, not only the players to give their all, but the executive and everyone else that’s involved can see how much passion he’s putting into it. You can’t help but want to be a part of that.”

After an initial stint

as the head coach of the Dynamiters during the club’s Rocky Mountain Junior A days, and now a second run as the bench boss of the Dynamiters during its Kootenay International Junior B days, Jerry Bancks is riding off into the sunset as he announced his retirement from coaching Wednesday evening.

“He creates expectations that, sometimes, are hard,” said Mike Reid, general manager of the Kimberley Dynamiters, Wednesday evening.

“He expects you to reach them and you do. For me, as a coach, I learned so much on how to push people, how to create expectations, how to create an environment of winners and how to have fun, too.

“It was the complete package… The expectations that he created for everyone in the organization, it’s like positive

The fiery and passionate coach so often referred to his team as more a family than anything else. Fittingly, Bancks announced his decision to walk away

Longtime Kimberley Dynamiters head coach Jerry Bancks announces retirement Continued from page 8 Dynamiters bench.

After going 29-21-2-0 and finishing second in the Eddie Mountain Division during the 2013-14 campaign, the Dynamiters improved to 32-15-2-3 during the 2014-15 regular season before blasting through the competition en route to the 2015 KIJHL championship and a narrow 6-5 defeat in the title game of the 2015 Cyclone Taylor Cup — B.C.’s provincial Junior B championship. Finally, in 2015-16, the Dynamiters put forth an astounding record of 41-7-0-4 to claim the KIJHL regular season crown before making their second consecutive trip to the KIJHL championship, falling during a hard-fought series with the 100 Mile House Wranglers.

“I’d love to see [the Kimberley Dynamiters] become a place where it’s great to come and develop,” Bancks said. “I want this league to become a developmental league. I think it’s critical and that’s what I think the Dynamiters should stand for. We moved four guys on last year and I’ll bet we’ll move eight to 10 kids on this year. I’d like that legacy to continue.”

You work your way up and down the roster, from rookies to veterans, locals to imports, and there’s no shortage of evidence to support the resounding impact Bancks has had in advancing the lives of the young hockey players and men he has been responsible for tutoring, laying the groundwork for a legacy he so passionately wants to live on.

“He’s my hero,” said goaltender Tyson Brouwer, who spent the past three seasons playing for Bancks. “I get a little emotional when I think about it. Jerry Bancks is an amazing human being. He will be remembered forever in Kimberley hockey.

I’ll never forget everything he’s done for me.”

Brouwer, who began life with the Dynamiters as a fresh-faced backup goaltender during the 2013-14 campaign, grew and evolved into arguably the best puck-stopper in the league over the course of his time with Bancks. Both on and off the ice, his work ethic carried him towards the next step of his life, which is a college hockey career with the University of Jamestown Jimmies in North Dakota. That opportunity he credits to Bancks.

“[Jerry] gets it in our head that we’re going to work hard and you’re not going to like him at some times but it’s all for your own good,” said Keenan Haase, a native of Mission Viejo, Calif., who came to Bancks and the Dynamiters at the start of the 2014-15 season and finds himself headed for NCAA Division III hockey at New England College.

“Once you kind of figure out that he’s not out to hurt you or insult you very much, he starts trying to make you better. You get along with him and you understand why.”

Captain Jason Richter — perhaps the only person other than Bancks to be spoken of frequently in recent years as the heart and soul of the Dynamiters — has followed a path quite similar to that of Keiver’s. After years in Bancks’ sports school, Richter graduated and joined the Dynamiters for the 2012-13 season and has been along to watch Bancks transform the organization.

“My first year here, it wasn’t quite what I expected,” Richter, a native of Cranbrook, said Wednesday night, looking out at the ice in the empty Civic Centre. “I wanted a little bit more out of the coaching staff and pretty much everyone. It seemed like a bit of a league where no one really cared if you moved on or not.

“Ever since Jerry stepped in, it’s been constantly growing and getting better. Guys are getting involved in the community… We’re still able to practice and play good hockey while working and getting involved in the community. It’s come a long way.

“Jerry has been the biggest influence in my life over the past four years. He’s completely changed my life. I don’t think I’d be here without him. I could go on and on about how great of a person he is. He knows, and hopefully everyone else

knows, how grateful I am to have had him as a coach and a friend. It’s been incredible what he’s done for me the past four years.”

Brouwer, Haase and Richter represent just a small sampling of players Bancks has helped send on to the next chapter of life and the next step in their hockey careers.

Bancks once said he prioritized his life in this fashion — first and foremost, he was a family man; secondly, he was a teacher; and lastly, he was a hockey coach. He said that final responsibility was influenced heavily, if not completely, by the two that came before it.

In the development of so many young men, Bancks succeeded as a family man, a teacher and a hockey coach.

And as he so eloquently puts it, the people he has met along that journey have helped to fill the pages of his scrapbook, a scrapbook that has so much paper and ink, most others should be envious.

“There’s a lot of stuff that goes on behind the scenes that people don’t know about,” Bancks said. “Chad Koran [president] and Kathy Merkel [co-treasurer] — it’s amazing the amount of effort they put into it.

“My fondest memories are teaching kids to say ‘Thank you.’ It’s kind of the highlight. I’ve been with Neil Rye [equipment assistant] way back from Junior A to now. It was a sin when I used to watch people leave this dressing room and not say thank you.

“We beat Creston in overtime to clinch the [Eddie Mountain Division championship] series and the highlight of that night was listening to the players say thank you to Neil. It wasn’t the goal, it wasn’t anything else. It was a bunch of men learning to be men.”

Like his mentor, the 36-year-old Keiver is also walking away from the bench for the time being, along with president Chad Koran and general manager Mike Reid.

“I’m going to miss…the experience of being so alive, being out on the bench with the kids and looking up into the crowd to see friends and family and knowing how much everyone in this town wants us to win,” Keiver said. “Then looking over and seeing Jerry, who I give all the credit to, but at the same time,

he’s allowed me to share in this experience with him. That camaraderie you hear players talk about when they retire… I’ll miss that with the players for sure, but as a coach, you also miss that camaraderie with your fellow coaches.”

So while questions remain as to what the future holds for the Kimberley Dynamiters organization as it seeks a new generation of personalities and characters to take over, there is absolutely no question as to how far the club has progressed under the guidance of Jerry Bancks — the family man, the teacher and the hockey coach.

As for what life holds next for Bancks, he plans to travel alongside his wife Marilyn, who recently announced her own retirement from her position as principal at Marysville Elementary School.

With son Carter striking out a successful professional hockey career with the Utica Comets of the American Hockey League, the hope is to take in more of his son’s games as well.

That being said, even on a day when he is supposed to be talking about retirement and looking forward to kicking back, Jerry Bancks just can’t quite let go.

“I’ve got coaching in blood,” Bancks said. “It’s almost like I’d like to take a year just to see if I could pull myself away for a year and see where it takes me, see how much I miss everything. But I’m not sure I can do that, because I already miss it.”

So for now, at least in this manner, Jerry Bancks is hanging up his skates, gloves, clipboard and whistle after having launched so many young men into the real world.

Jeff Keiver will believe it’s true retirement when he sees it.

“I would just like to wish Jerry a happy readjustment of his time and priorities,” Keiver said in closing.

“Because I know he will never retire and never stop helping the youth and everybody in this community.

That’s just the kind of guy he is.”

Jerry Bancks restored greatness to the Dynamiters and established a winning culture — for life and hockey in Kimberley — and for that, his immeasurable contributions will always be respected and never be forgotten.

“I’m going to miss the whole process,” Bancks said, sitting in his office long after the dressing room stalls had been vacated, leaving nothing left but a low hum in what is so very often an arena and dressing room buzzing with excitement. “I love to see players commit themselves, control what they can control, which is their work level, and then a team pull together and grow as a group of individuals.

“Watching the kids say goodbye today… there’s nothing like the camaraderie that can exist in hockey in an environment that is demanding. It was a demanding environment. It wasn’t easy. It wasn’t for everyone. You had to be special to be a part of this gang and that’s what I’m going to miss the most — creating that environment and sense of belonging. From that comes the friendships and the camaraderie.

“It’s the camaraderie of hockey that rocks. It’s so neat to see what’s been accomplished here.”

Bancks always maintained he felt a civic duty to help restore the good name of the Kimberley Dynamiters. After spending time as an assistant coach with the Kootenay Ice of the Western Hockey League in which he was a part of the 2011 Ed Chynoweth Cup championship staff, Bancks returned to Kimberley and did nothing short of return the Dynamiters organization to flagship status within the KIJHL. Keiver comes from unique perspective in that he was taught grade school by Bancks, played for Bancks and coached with Bancks. Pretty much every step of Keiver’s life has been impacted in some way, shape or form by Jerry Bancks.

“He’s one of the last few guys that truly lives his life by a set of principles and doesn’t really bend from those despite peer pressure or the way kids have changed,” Keiver said of the characteristics that have boosted Bancks to such success.

“I’ve seen a lot of the way he deals with situations. He sticks to what he believes in and he has certainly been raised right by his own parents. When he gives kids advice, it comes from the heart and it comes from a good foundation.”

That approach brought Bancks on-ice success in short order during his most recent stint behind the

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Be aware of what you have to offer. You might have a sense that you would like to join several friends later today to celebrate that it is Friday night. Count on going overboard. Make sure your finances are spot-on. Tonight: You don’t have to treat everyone all the time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’ll perk up and give off a lot of energy. A friend or an associate might let you know that there is more to his or her feelings for you than what he or she has revealed. Trust your instincts, and remain positive about what seems to be happening. Tonight: Follow the music.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) If you don’t feel like joining a friend later, don’t hem and haw - just say so. You might want some personal time without having to deal with anyone else.

You might want to consider an important decision about your day-to-day life that has implications. Tonight: Not to be found.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Tap into your imagination, and find out what it is you want. Perhaps you are too fearful to really visualize a long-term dream or desire. Friends surround you and encourage you to think positively. You can have what you believe you want. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Take charge of a situation before it gets too out of hand. You might feel as though a good friend can handle what seems like a bit of a risk. Double-check the facts, as mistakes easily could be made.

An older friend could give you an earful. Tonight: Someone will be observing you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Reach out to someone at a distance who has different views of what is going on around you.

Remember, this person is not seeing the situation as it is, but rather through your perception of it. Listen to what a loved one shares. Tonight: You don’t need to pinch yourself; this is real.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You inspire many people around

Tundra

you, but a loved one can’t seem to do enough to make you feel good and secure. Know that this person is a wizard with money management. Listen to his or her ideas. Remain more nurturing to someone in your daily life.

Tonight: All smiles.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might not be very realistic right now. You can’t seem to see a person or a situation clearly, or perhaps you’d just prefer not to. A loved one does his or her share in making a conversation happen as you’d like. Tonight: Be effusive about your feelings anyway.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be getting an earful of information or gossip. The question remains: What are you going to believe? Asking key questions will be important. Still, you might feel as if someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes. Be smart. Tonight: Pace yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be at the point where change is necessary. You have been holding your position, but

what is the cost of carrying on like that? You see the wisdom of a discussion with others about which path to follow. Tonight: Let your imagination color the scene.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Deal with a domestic matter directly. For some of you, the issue could revolve around a property or real-estate investment. You might feel as if you are offering a lot in a situation, but you’ll need to step back to get a more realistic perception. Tonight: Mosey on home.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might not be realistic right now. A close friend or associate could politely decide not to go along with your suggestion or idea. Perhaps you won’t notice this person backing off at first.

Have a discussion, but avoid becoming defensive. Tonight: Celebrate the weekend.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: Our 46-year-old son is bright, caring and an all-around good guy. Here’s the problem: “Munro” has never gotten much of an education, even though he’s had multiple chances and we have encouraged him to do so. If we say anything about it, he gets nasty and rude and tells us it’s none of our business.

He is absolutely right -- until he and his family hit us up for money. Munro has a wife and three children. The oldest, age 20, still lives at home and does not work or contribute to the household.

Our daughter-in-law refuses to work more than part-time, and then only temporarily. The entire household lives hand-to-mouth. We have loaned them a lot of money over the years, not to mention the many “extras” we’ve done for the kids. We made a decision to close the bank, at least until his wife and adult son contribute more to the household.

The problem now is that Munro was in a serious, life-altering accident and is lucky to be alive. He won’t be able to work for some time. Of course, they can’t pay their bills. I spoke to my husband about helping again because of these extenuating circumstances, but he replied that now is a good time for his wife and son to step up and get jobs.

What do you think we should do? We are financially secure, but not rich. -- Worried Mom in California Dear Worried: This is a tough situation.

You have been too generous already, but with Munro out of work for an indefinite period, his family will likely sink further down before it occurs to them to step up and contribute. They have been enabled for so long that they don’t know how to adjust their expectations. They will accuse you of abandoning them in their time of need.

Please sit down with Munro, his wife and their grown son. Explain that the gravy train has stopped running. Offer to help your daughter-in-law and grandson look through the want ads in the newspaper and online to find full-time jobs that will make up for Munro’s missing salary. And if you are feeling generous, pay for them to get some financial and budget planning advice from a professional. Check with your bank or the National Foundation for Credit Counseling at nfcc.org. As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Show him how to catch a fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

Dear Annie: In a letter from “Pennsylvania,” there was a reference to rude drivers turning on their high beams and leaving them on. In your response, you suggested flashing the high beams once or twice to let someone know their headlights are off or that their high beams are off.

You might want to tell your readers in Indiana not to do that. I found out the hard way when a police officer saw me click my high beams. He was nice and just gave me a warning, but it could have been a ticket. -- Smarter in Indiana Dear Indiana: Several readers wrote to tell us it is also illegal in California and other states, and suggested turning one’s headlights on and off quickly for the same purpose. Our thanks to all who let us know.

Gunter Paul Hofmeister passed away peacefully at the age of 83 years at the Ivy House in Invermere, BC on Monday, April 4, 2016. Gunter was born in Berlin, Germany on September 24, 1932.

Gunter came to Canada and settled first in Regina as a young man. He married his loving wife and best friend Joyce on June 17, 1960 and they were blessed with five children. In 1971, Gunter and Joyce moved to Cranbrook and made this their home. Gunter was well known for his love of the outdoors and his enjoyment of fishing, hiking and skiing. In later years, his greatest joy came from his 13 grandchildren and six great grandchildren. They were his pride!

Left to mourn his passing are his beloved wife, Joyce and his children; Heidi (Wayne), Glenn (Nancy), Roy (Toni-lynn), Marty and Joey (Jackie) as well as his beloved 13 grandchildren and six great grandchildren.

Open air burning restricted in city For the Townsman

The return of the summer weather brings the risk of fires back into the minds of many people, including the staff of the Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services department.

Open air burning requirements, campfires, burning yard waste and the potential threat of wildfires are important issues that Fire & Emergency Services are working to educate residents about.

“Burning of yard waste and other household materials anytime is not allowed under the City’s Fire Services Bylaw,” says Wayne Price, Director of Fire & Emergency Services.

“Under the Bylaw, the only open air burning allowed is barbeques, small cooking or campfires using appropriate fire pits, chimneys or approved stoves or eliminating fire hazards

“Burning of yard waste and other household materials anytime is not allowed under the City’s Fire Services Bylaw.”

Wayne Price Director of Fire and Emergency Services and fire training by the department itself.”

Anyone having a campfire on their property should ensure that it is at least 10 feet away from any combustible material and buildings.

Meantime, the open air burning of land clearing debris is allowed however can only be completed between November 1 and March 31 and requires a permit from the Director of Fire & Emergency Services.

Also as the summer wears on, the wildfire risk in and around the City of Cranbrook is nearly certain to increase.

“It is crucial for property owners to take a serious look around for items: debris, yard waste and the like and remove them,” says Price. “Residents need to take responsibility for fire-proofing their properties, especially those around the perimeter of the City. If you see smoke on your property, it can often be too late to take preventative measures to protect your property.”

Residents are encouraged to review the City of Cranbrook Fire Services Bylaw 3676, 2010. Copies are available for information at City Hall, at the Fire Hall or on the City website – www.cranbrook. ca.

Big investment needed in Western Canada’s rail, ports Ross Marowits Canadian Press

MONTREAL - Big investments in both rail and marine infrastructure will be required to accommodate an acceleration in commodities shipments, particularly oil, over the next decade, says the Conference Board of Canada.

In a report released Thursday, the agency said annual tonnage of commodities shipped by rail will grow more quickly than in the past, rising 30 per cent from 200 million tonnes in 2011 to 260 million tonnes by 2025.

The Conference Board said Canada’s shifting trading patterns are putting additional pressure on the country’s railways and ports to meet the growing demand for Canadian commodities.

Wheat, forest and energy products, especially crude oil, are expected to be the main growth drivers, with ris-

ing exports bound for Europe and Asia.

“Improving the performance of Canada’s transportation supply chain is essential to ensure that Canadian exports remain competitive in the global market place,” said the 135page report which didn’t put an estimate on the cost of upgrades.

Rail corridors between the Prairies and the U.S. and from the Prairies to British Columbia are expected to feel the most pressure from rising shipments.

That will put pressure on Canadian National Railway (TSX:CNR) and Canadian Pacific Railway (TSX:CP) to continue investing heavily in rail infrastructure to accommodate the increased demand, the Conference Board said.

The two railways spent, on average, more than $1.25 billion a year combined between 2005 and 2014 and ap-

pear to be focusing long-term spending in line with the report’s forecast, the board said.

The largest increase in rail volumes is expected to be for transporting energy products from Saskatchewan and Alberta to the United States. The Conference Board said the commodity - which includes crude oil and refined products - has grown sharply in recent years and should peak at almost 500,000 barrels per day, nearly double the 2014 level of about 300,000 barrels.

A large growth in shipments is also forecast between the two provinces and British Columbia.

The board said ports in Central and Eastern Canada have enough capacity, but that B.C. ports will need to be expanded to accommodate seven million more tonnes of agricultural products by 2025.

NEWS

First detection of deadly bat disease on the West Coast WANTED: BC Community Bat Program asking for reports of dead bats, bats flying during the day and information on bat roost sites For the Townsman

On 31st March 2016, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife confirmed that White-Nose Syndrome had been detected on a dead bat near Seattle, Washington. This is very worrisome for the health of bat populations in British Columbia. The BC Community Bat Program in collaboration with BC government and Wildlife Conservation Society Canada is developing a rapid response to this emerging crisis.

“We knew this deadly fungus that kills bats was moving westward across North America” says Juliet Craig, Coordinator of the Kootenay Community Bat Project (KCBP) and BC Community Bat Program, “but we thought we had many years to prepare”.

Currently there are no known treatments for White Nose Syndrome that can be used to save bats in the wild.

However, mitigating other threats to bat populations and preserving and restoring bat habitat may provide bat populations the resilience to rebound from the mortality that may be caused by the disease. This is where the KCBP and the general public can help.

“Although WhiteNose Syndrome affects bats in caves, it will be during springtime when bats return to building roosts that we have our best chance at detecting the presence of the disease, making the work of our community bat program more important than ever before” continues Craig.

Funded by the Co-

lumbia Basin Trust, Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, and the Habitat Stewardship Program, the KCBP conducts public outreach activities, responds to public reports of roosting bats in buildings, promotes the installation of bat houses, and coordinates a citizen-science bat monitoring program.

“We are asking the public to report dead bats to the toll-free phone number or email below and to also provide information on bat roosts. Bat carcasses will be submitted for testing of White-Nose Syndrome and may provide the earliest indication of the presence of the disease in BC” says Craig.

If you find a dead bat, be sure not to touch it with your bare

hands. Collect it in a bag and label the bag with the date, location and your name, and then put the bag in the freezer. Contact the KCBP as soon as possible for shipping directions and further information.

The KCBP also encourages residents to report bat roosting sites in building structures, such as attics, sheds and bat houses, to help identify where certain species are present; if you are needing to evict bats from a structure, you are encouraged to contact the KCBP who can provide information on proper procedures to follow.

To contact the Kootenay Community Bat Project, email juliet@ kootenaybats.com or call 1-855-922-2287 ext.

Residents responsible for trees on private property For the Townsman

The situation regarding trees, both on private and public property and the responsibility for those

trees is regularly a topic of discussion around the community and many questions are often asked of City of Cranbrook staff.

Each resident is responsible for trees on their own private property and are encouraged to have a professional arbourist assess

and/or remove trees if there is concern around safety and potential property damage should a tree come down.

It is the responsibility of residents to talk to their neighbours when it comes to concerns around neighbourhood trees. Own-

BMO continues to support healthcare in our community by donating $2,500 to complete their $5,000 pledge to support the ongoing medical equipment needs in the East Kootenay region. Cassandra Schwarz (ED) met with Theresa Larson (Vice-Chair, EKFH Board of Directors and BMO Senior Commercial Account Manager) and Mary Quinn (BMO Branch Manager) to accept the generous donation. “We are so pleased to complete our contribution to the EKFH Starlite Campaign. It is wonderful to help raise the standard of healthcare for the region.” said Mary Quinn. For more information about EKFH visit us on Facebook or on the web at www.ekfh.ca.

ership of the tree is determined at ground level.

Private trees are those that have 51 percent or more of their diameter on the private side of the property line and City-owned trees are those that have 51 per cent or more of the trunk diameter on the City side of the property line.

If you are unsure as to the ownership of a tree(s), please refer to your property survey, usually found with your home purchase documents.

It is also recommended to review your home insurance policy around damage to property or adjacent properties sustained from falling trees or other tree debris like branches, etc.

The City of Cranbrook Public Works department has a professional arbourist on staff, which assesses trees, conducts trimming and oversees the removal of diseased, dying, dead or dangerous trees as required exclusively on City owned property.

The City is also responsible for the care and maintenance of all public trees that line

our streets, trees that are in parks and trees along boulevards.

Public Works is not allowed to access any private property and does not have the authority to remove trees from private property.

There are three businesses in the city that specialize in the assessment and removal of trees from private property.

Those businesses can be found in the yellow pages.

Currently the City of Cranbrook does not have a tree bylaw. The goal of such a bylaw, if there is one drafted, would be to ensure the provision of a sustainable, healthy urban tree canopy within the City of Cranbrook and would certainly protect the old healthy trees in this community.

The City of Cranbrook values and supports a diverse and healthy urban forest.

The City has an Urban Forest Management Plan in place since 2008. Just over 1000 specimen trees have been planted on City property since the program began, with 350 new trees planted since 2012.
