Help Cheer up Kamloops T

he KTW Christmas Cheer Fund campaign is back, raising money for five local organizations that provide much-needed services in the community. Thanks to the generous people of Kamloops, more than $150,000 has been raised since KTW adopted the fund in 2014.

Funds raised through the Cheer Fund this year will support the Y Women’s Emergency Shelter, New Life Community Kamloops, Family Tree Family Centre, Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre and Sensational Soups.

Women’s shelter

New Life Community Kamloops is open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., providing a safe and welcoming environment and meeting with people to help identify and then meet their needs.

The Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre helps people who have experienced trauma overcome and move forward. Its clients come from all walks of life and the violence can be sexual, battering or criminal-harassing.

Funds have also been used to provide snacks and meals to children and youth clients who often attend appointments malnourished.

The Family Tree Family Centre works with families living in isolation, feeling judged and not connected to their community. Many are living in poverty, experiencing violence and mental-health or addiction issues.

Through a daily drop-in program, families can access social and professional support, educational workshops, case management, advocacy, a healthy lunch, a childdevelopment consultant, referrals and access to its large donation room.

Sensational Soups is run out of Mt. Paul United Church, a program created by several retired Kamloopsians who volunteer to provide healthy lunches in a safe environment every Monday and Thursday.

It is completely reliant on donations and the two-dozen volunteers have often used their own money to finance it.

The Y Women’s Emergency Shelter provides shelter to women and children fleeing violence. Every year, several hundred of them will come to the shelter and several hundred more will receive nonresidential care and counselling.

Donations to the KTW Christmas Cheer Fund can be made online at www.kamloopsthisweek.com/cheer.

An email address is required. Donations can also be made at the KTW office, 1365B Dalhousie Dr., Mondays to Fridays between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. Fill out the form below.

O

n April 14, 2015, Paul Jubinville — just one month after graduating with a degree in electrical engineering — was diagnosed with a brain tumour.

It was glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive cancers. It grows fast and spreads as it grows. One year later, on April 12, 2016, Paul died.

While time has passed, the pain hasn’t, said his mother, Jeannine. At this festive time of the year, she turns to the Blue Christmas services as a way of coping.

FIND IT HERE FIND IT FAST

She had already connected with another mom whose son died from the same cancer, but felt a need for more support. When she walked into the service last year, she met in person her telephone friend with whom she shared her grief. And she saw other familiar faces. Paul’s music teacher was playing the organ.

“I’m not religious, but I knew enough people that I felt comfortable there,” she said.

The three services this year are designed to provide a warm environment. The lights are kept low.

The music is calming. There are candles to be lit. Relevant scripture is recited, as are other readings designed to honour the reasons people are there.

At the service Jeannine attended

last year, a husband and wife pair played the cello.

“It’s not an easy time,” Jeannine said of facing the holidays. “And I’m sure people were there for lots of reasons.”

The services are about 40 minutes long and people are invited to stay afterward for refreshments and conversation.

“They’re good to have,” Jeannine said. “It’s good to have that support.”

Facing her first Christmas without her son last year was hard, Jeannine said, and she knows it will be again this year, so she will again attend a service.

The last service this year is on Thursday, Dec. 21, at Hills of Peace Lutheran Church at 695 Robson Dr. All services start at 7 p.m.

Wild Lights T

he BC Wildlife Park is known for less growls and more glow come the holiday season.

The park’s annual tradition, Wildlights, sees thousands of lights lit up throughout the property east of Kamloops.

It returns this season from Dec. 15 to Jan. 7 for its 20th year.

Uncle Chris the Clown will bring his

energy to the park, as well, entertaining children, while favourites such as the maze and the Wildlife Express miniature train will be featured.

All of this is augmented by the popular campfires, around which families can gather with hot chocolate.

Wildlights will run nightly from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., but is closed Christmas Day.

Admission is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors and $8 for kids 17 and under.

Those two and younger get in free and park pass holders get 50 per cent off.

For more information, go online to bcwildlife.org/eventlist.htm.
