On June 1, 2020 Dave Knowles celebrated his 90th birthday. Approximately 30 people gathered outside in the common area at The Villas in Lumby to help Dave mark this milestone birthday. Although Dave couldn’t receive any hugs or handshakes due to the Covid-19 distancing rules he did receive the well wishes and congratulations of all those in attendance. Coffee, tea and a beautiful cake were served to those in attendance. Dave was the first resident to move into The Villas, the first of its kind adult community in Lumby. Dave and his wife Sally moved to Lumby from Sorrento in October 1993 and lived in one half of the first unit built while their unit was being constructed. The other half was the show home. Dave still lives in the unit they moved into in May 1994.

The Lumby OAP (Monashee 50+ Club) Remains Closed The Lumby OAP (Monashee 50+ Club) had an Executive meeting on Thursday where they discussed the re-opening of the hall to resume events and activities. After much discussion of the pros and cons it was unanimously decided to remain closed for now. The situation will be addressed again in September but any opening will be dependent on the status of the Covid-19 virus and the guidelines provided by the Health Minister and governments. Have a nice summer to all.

What Kind Of Tomato Smells The Best?... A Roma!
The Mighty Tomato
After a cool and wet week we are promised a warmer and much more seasonable stretch of weather gradually becoming warmer until Saturday when it is predicted to be a return to rain. Although this is a labor and water saving event I am looking forward to a good stretch of sun and warmth. I must apologize for a presumptuous announcement of the opening of the Lumby and District Public Market. Rules and Regulations around the Covid Pandemic have made opening the market expensive and complicated in order to accommodate our vendors and clients. So unfortunately we will not be opening this year. We will with good fortune be able to open next year, and will sadly miss our participants, vendors and shoppers alike! Tomatoes are one of the staples in most peoples garden and the varieties available are dizzying, however, there are only two types of tomatoes to be concerned with and that is determinant and indeterminate. Depending on your space and use for your tomatoes this may be a consideration to the type of tomato you will grow. Determinant tomato plants might be better if you are planning to do some canning as the fruit will become become ripe all around the same time where as Indeterminate plants will continue to grow and produce tomatoes until the frost kills the plants. They also are usually a more compact plant and Indeterminate plants are usually larger and need staking to support this continuous growth. Roma tomatoes are usually determinant and are considered a flavourful canning or stewing tomato. Either way tomato plants require the same care and attention to produce the ultimate fruit and are subject to the same diseases although through hybridization some are more resilient to pests and diseases such as verticillium and fusarium which are fungal diseases. Tomato plants require consistent, slow and deep watering. Overwatering can be as bad for your plants as under watering and will present the same with yellowed, bumpy leaves and fruit that is misshapen fruit. This is due to the decrease of air in the soil, however this problem can be overcome by correcting your watering practices. Once your plants are established you should water deeply (about 2 inches worth) weekly, more often if the weather is extremely hot. Mulching should be considered to help with evaporation during these periods. What cannot be corrected by watering is different fungal diseases that may present with the same yellowed leaves but the plant continues to go downhill until death no matter what changes you make to its care. The defining clue will be the brownish discolouration that is present when you cut into the stem of the poor dead plants. Along with the proper amounts of water pruning can

also contribute to the health and production of your plants. All suckers should be removed early in there growth these are the shoots that form in the axis of the side branches that join the main stem. I also remove side branches that are very near the soil surface and any leaves that touch the ground as this helps to prevent fungal infections that can be picked up from the soil. Remove all leaves that are spotted or are turning yellow. Pruning will open the plant to good aeration and allow sunshine to reach all parts of the plant. This will help with the prevention of both disease and pests. Tomato crops should be planted in an area that has not grown tomatoes in the past two years and if you grow Black Walnut you should keep the plant 75 to 100 feet away as they are poisonous to tomatoes. The plants themselves should be spaced about 2 feet apart. Blossom End Rot can be another plague to the tomato. This presents itself in a rotten spot at the bottom off the tomatoes fruit. It may be due to a calcium deficiency which can be a deficiency in the soil or it can be caused by continuous overwatering which prevents enough calcium from reaching the plant or the use of too much high nitrogen fertilizers causing the plant to grow too rapidly. So one must gage the proper amount of water, fertilizer and calcium that you give to your plant. This is especially important in tomatoes grown in pots. The use of epsom salts is also another consideration when growing tomatoes. This gives your plants many trace minerals and can help with the uptake of calcium. Be careful as many people have overdone this application with unfortunate results. One teaspoon per gallon once a month is sufficient. If your plant seems to be dropping its flowers with no sign of fruit development this could be due to too cool temperatures which we have no control of if planting in the great outdoors. The ideal temperature for growing tomatoes is a daytime temperature of 18 - 21 degrees with night time temperatures of about 13 degrees. Happy Gardening!

Scavenge for Gratitude
“The most powerful weapon against your daily battles is finding the courage to be grateful anyways.” – unknown writer Sometimes the world can literally feel as though it is upside down. In times like this, it is so important to focus on the things that we are thankful for. The human brain is an amazing and complex tool; training your brain to appreciate and be grateful can have huge benefits on quality of life. Studies have indicated that practicing gratitude on a daily basis can increase happiness and significantly decrease anxiety. Finding gratitude in the smallest of things or during difficult times is a virtue that one can never have too much of.
Gratitude Scavenger Hunt
• Find something that makes you happy. • Find something to give to someone else to make them smile.
• Find one thing that you love to smell. • Find one thing that you enjoy looking at. • Find something that displays your favourite colour. • Find something that you are thankful for in nature. • Find something that you can use to make a gift for someone. • Find something that is useful for you. • Find something beautiful, funny or unique. • Find your favourite move, book or song. You may even discover that there are a lot more wonderful things in your life than you realized.

PMS-Migraines-Menopause-Depression-Inflammation and MORE! Last weeks corner highlighted Calcium, Iron and Magnesium. I wanted to bring a little more attention to magnesium this week as it helps with a variety of ailments. Foods high in magnesium are nuts, whole grains - brown rice, millet, buckwheat (kasha), whole wheat, triticale, and rye, legumes including lentils, split peas, a variety of beans, seafood, and green vegetables.

COLLEEN’S CORNER
By Colleen Fielding Welcome to Colleen’s Corner. This is a column meant for fun and some information About myself: I am a Freelance Photographer you often see me on the side of the road or in various places taking photos of different things animals, birds, places, people etc. l have lived in Lumby just over 8 years,you have seen my photos in the newspaper (Lumby Valley Times) and once in awhile in the Vernon Morning Star, and the Lumby Art Gallery. Photography is my passion. Disclaimer: The information on some of my photos that I write about a lot of times come from the Internet or books I research them, hopefully the facts are as close to the truth as I can come.
A Great Fisherman This is my step father Jack. He passed away in the early nineties, and my mom never married again. He was a good person, and a fantastic fisherman. Whenever he went fishing, he always caught something, (once in a while but not very often it would just be seaweed or a cold hahaha.) When I was a little girl, Jack would take me with him and he taught me how to fish. He taught my mom how to fish as well, my older sisters were not interested in this special endeavor. It was great, especially the days I caught more fish than him! He could clean those fish so fast, and then cook them up perfectly for us. Fish were not the only thing he could cook, he made the most amazing stew, and his chili was awesome. On the BBQ he was a wizard, he did a lot of his cooking with beer. Yup a beer in his hand, and a beer on the food (yum very tasty.) Have you ever been to Toronto? Have you heard
about the CN TOWER? Well, Jack worked on that tower. His favorite thing to get for Father's Day was Chocolates and Old Spice (at least I think that was his favorite, as that's what I always got him and he said he liked it) Father's Day is coming up this Sunday June 21 2020, if Jack was still alive, I would probably get him the same things Chocolate and Old Spice as believe it or not they still make Old Spice, and of course Chocolate will always be around (at least I hope it will be.) June 19 1910 this was the first Father's Day in Spokane Washington. Sondra Smith Dodd was the first person to bring Father's Day to light, Sondra was at a celebration for Mother's Day and thought of that having a Father's Day would be a good way to honor Father's around the world. So, to the guys out there this Sunday is your Special Day HAPPY FATHER'S DAY ENJOY!

GUESS WHO BUILT HWY 6 AND HWY 97A ALONG MARA LAKE? During Canada’s first national internment operations of 1914 - 1920, thousands of men, women and children were branded as “enemy aliens”, stripped of their belongings, imprisoned, and some forced to do heavy labour without reward.
On this day we remember them. During Canada’s first national internment operations of 1914-1920, thousands of men, women and children were branded as “enemy aliens,” forced to do heavy labour for the profit of their jailers, disenfranchised, and subjected to other state-sanctioned indignities - not because of anything they had done wrong but only because of where they had come from, who they were.

Born in Montreal, Mary Manko was just six years old when her family was sent to the Spirit Lake internment camp, in Quebec’s remote Abitibi region. Nellie, her younger sister, died there. Reflecting on her experiences, decades later, Mary said: I was one of the thousands of Ukrainian Canadians rounded up as ‘enemy aliens’ and put in concentration camps … Canada’s Ukrainians were not disloyal. Our imprisonment was wrong. We were Canadians. Those who, like my parents, had come from Ukraine to Canada, came seeking freedom. They were invited here. They worked hard. They contributed to this country, with their blood, sweet, and tears. A lot of the latter. What was done to us was wrong. Because no one bothered to remember or learn about the wrong that was done to us it was done to others again, and yet again. Maybe there’s an even greater wrong in that.

WATER +
Donna Easto, C.H., H.C., M.H., Certified Herbal Educator We are creatures of water. Most of our tissues and organs hold more than 70% water. It’s nature’s elixir for keeping mind and body healthy. Water replenishes the body with fluids and minerals. It detoxifies and cleanses; its capacity to heal has been recognized for millennia. This article covers some of the reasons why drinking ample water is important. It also provides suggestions on adding tinctures to your glass of water. • Cartilage found in our joints and spine is about 80% water - it only makes sense to keep your cartilage hydrated. • Blood’s more than 90% water and carries oxygen throughout your body. A lack of water can cause your blood to thicken, increasing blood pressure. • Your brain needs water; dehydration can lead to difficulties with thinking and reasoning. • Water regulates your body temperature. • Your bowels need water; dehydration results in constipation and an acidic stomach. • Minerals and nutrients dissolve in water, making them available to your body. • Your kidneys need water to regulate your bodily fluids; kidney stones are just one problem that results from insufficient water. • Drinking adequate water will help prevent urinary tract infections, and help treat an existing one. In an ideal world, we’d all be drinking pure, natural spring water. However, it’s not an ideal world; untreated water these days might be contaminated water. Additionally, water in plastic bottles is an environmental nightmare: It’s been estimated that in the year 2050 there will be more plastic than fishes in the sea.”1 It’s up to you to decide what type of water you Anxious/Tired & Wired?

And, reusable water bottles go a long way to saving the world from drowning in plastic. Herbal teas are lovely, and a great way to get more water into your body. However, there are times when brewing and steeping and sipping simply require too much time and space. Adding tinctures is a quick way to get the herbs and the water you need.

Expenses incurred during this period that are eligible include lease payments, rent, salaries and benefits, property taxes, utilities, bank charges and interest, office supplies, vehicle supplies and more. “This funding will go such a long way to help cover some pretty big expenses incurred at a time when many of these businesses and organizations were seeing just a fraction of their normal revenue,” says Kazia Mullin, Business Services Manager. “It could be a lifeline for the many non-profits and small and family-owned businesses that didn’t meet criteria for other government supports.” Early COVID-19 federal lending assistance programs had requirements that excluded sole proprietor businesses and businesses without staff or a certain annual payroll minimum, and this is the first federal lending program to include non-profits. Scot McNair, Business Loans Advisor at CFNO, says he’s looking forward to helping local organizations and ‘mom and pop’ stores get back on their feet. “The RRRF really targets many of those family businesses as well as non-profits that are a big part of our community, and we’re glad to be able to bring
them this support,” says McNair, adding he encourages businesses to apply soon as they are expecting many applications and the RRRF funds for each community are limited. The RRRF repayment terms include no interest and no payments through to Dec. 31, 2022. If 75 per cent of the loan is repaid by Dec. 31, 2022, the remainder is forgiven. Payments begin January 2023 and loans must be repaid by Dec. 31, 2025 and there are no prepayment penalties.

BC Summer Reading Club goes virtual Let’s explore our universe
For the first time, the public libraries’ BC Summer Reading Club (BC SRC) is being offered virtually to young readers and their families, thanks to a $65,000 investment from the Government of British Columbia. This literacy program is usually offered in person. This year, as work continues to flatten the curve of COVID-19, young readers will be able to follow their passion for reading and still participate by registering and tracking their progress online. “Fun and engaging programs like the BC Summer Reading Club that help our kids strengthen their literacy skills and stay motivated to keep reading over the summer are even more important this year,” said Rob Fleming, Minister of Education. “I’m so pleased this incredibly popular program will continue this summer with expanded online features thanks to the great work done by library staff and the BC Library Association.” The BC SRC is a free literacy program offered through B.C.’s 71 public libraries to children ages 5-14. Online registration for BC SRC will open Monday, June 15, 2020, and children and families can ac-

Protect Shorelines During High Water Levels
After weekend rain fall pushed the level of Kalamalka Lake closer to capacity, residents and visitors are asked to take measures to protect private property, parks and roads, and reduce the risk of soil erosion. Boaters are reminded of the negative impact boat wake can have on shoreline erosion. Boaters and Personal Watercraft (PWC) users should avoid creating waves near the shoreline that can damage property or contribute to shoreline erosion. Transport Canada advises that anyone operating a power-driven boat in B.C. must adhere to a speed limit of 10 kilometres per hour within 30 metres of shore. Slower speeds are strongly encouraged while
water levels remain high. Private docks are also at risk from high water levels and waves. Homeowners can secure anchored docks by ensuring the anchor lines are long enough that they won’t snap if water levels rise. Pull-up docks should be raised as high as possible. Secure docks using sandbags or weighted barrels on the edge of the dock and remove all loose items. Residents with sandbags protecting their property should keep them in place until the risk of flood has passed.
