Just for Fun Hokey Hockey Humour

• What is the difference between wrestling and hockey? The fights are real in hockey.

• My friends and I visited Canada for the first time.

We got into a fight, and a hockey game broke out.

• In what manner did the blonde fisherman die?

While ice fishing, he got run over by the Zamboni!

• What does a hockey game and an airboat have in common? Loud fans • My local hockey rink just reported their Zamboni driver has gone missing...They hope he resurfaces soon.

• Why is the Hockey Hall Of Fame situated in Toronto? So that Leafs fans can remember what a Stanley cup looks like.

• A hockey player was asked, 'How many accidents have you had in your career?' The player responded, 'None for sure. I've had two concussions, lost all my front teeth, have had my nose broken four times, but they weren't accidents. The opponents did it on purpose'.

• Where does a majority of a hockey player's salary come from? The tooth fairy • What do a hockey player and a magician have in common? Both do hat tricks!

• Why did the hockey player bring an extra pair of shoelaces? Because she wanted to tie the score!

• What do a dentist and a hockey coach have in common? They both use painful drills!

Parenting the “Young at Art” Scribbling: It is very tempting for us to judge the art produced by other humans, particularly that of youth or children. We seem to think that every piece is to used as a teaching moment.

Almost a soon as a child discovers the delight of making marks on a blank surface (maybe paper, maybe a wall) we are tempted to ask them “What is it?”

It is what it is: a mark. It is an exploration of how the hand, arm, eye and brain are connected. Even before language, before naming. It simply is.

Naming the marks is the prerogative of the person making the marks. If they are unnamed, so be it.

Symbol making: The ability to create symbols is a fundamental human capacity. Many symbols are universal.

And yet each example of sun, human or hand is unique. There is a natural progression of symbolic drawing as a child becomes more confident with combining marks.

As this stage, symbol making is a personal expression, not primarily intended to communicate with others.

Simple geometric shapes float on the page with color used unrealistically. Symbols are distorted to fit the page and the paper is often turned while drawing, resulting in no clear sense of up and down.

Gradually the “vocabulary” of symbols is refined (stick figures gain detailed body parts for example) and the page is oriented to a top and bottom.

We are tempted to see a natural progression towards realism and (in our efforts to encourage the artist) to ask prompting questions (“Where are the hands?”) Much more helpful is simply to get the artist to describe the image if they want to.

Realism: Dawning realism is a period of extreme self awareness and the artist can become self critical to the point of giving up. At this stage and artist can benefit from the reminder that art is not a substitute for photography but that concentration, observation and exploration of different media are valuable skills.

Realistic drawing is the product of integrating many skills and benefits from repetition, like learning to

play scales on a musical instrument.

At this stage, providing a variety of good quality art materials and exposure to a variety of art from different eras and countries can be very helpful.

As the artist becomes more fluent with realism they may explore art as a representation of the external visual world or they may use the skills to represent internal emotional states. Both are equally valid.

This stage may be marked by copying or tracing.

This is perfectly acceptable and deserves to be respected as it is a quest for information.

Encourage the artist at this stage to collect images that inspire or help the visualization process. Provide a space (even portable ) to work on and a place to store finished work. Journals and sketch books make great gifts!

Encouraging the artist to leave a blank margin around the image will help with matting or mounting the work for display.

The Young at Art show is up at the Village Gallery (1975 Vernon Street) for the rest of October. Prepare to be amazed at the creativity and imagination of the young artists in our midst.

What Was The Spider Doing On The Computer?... Searching The Web!!!!

Don’t Throw The Baby Out With The Bath Water With the most unusual and unseasonal warm weather many areas including the Coast are experiencing severe drought issues. The expression Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water is an old German proverb that these days has many other meanings than the original Mid Evil water conservation practice that meant the father bathed first and then the rest of the family followed down to its smallest member that was bathed in the dirtiest of waters and although unimaginable could be tossed out with the filthy water.

Conservation practices should be met even with water levels at far more acceptable levels. Climate change has brought about many changes in weather patterns with an overabundance of water falling in some places and areas that are used to higher levels of moisture being sadly lacking. I have noticed and heard of another disturbing anomaly. In all my years here I have just had my first run in with a rat. I am not referring to a Bush Rat or a Pack Rat but a true rat like they have on the coast and although certainly not the size that we had on the water shore of the coast it is the first I’ve seen in my 30 odd years of living here. I also stopped by a friends place this last weekend and they too had one on their property and they too have not seen one here before. Disturbing. Many people in certain areas of the Interior are also complaining of an abundance of Stink Bugs. Disgusting but at least they do not bite or cause damage.

Many animals and creatures are now preparing for the long cold winter and some of them have your home as an ideal place to spend it. Most of these, if not all, will be unwelcome. Spiders, Mice and Rats, Stink Bugs, Ear Wigs and Silver Fish, and the good old Cockroach all need a good home for the winter. Most a r e harmless, others not so much but all are annoying. They enter in through doors, windows, small openings in foundations, around pipes and cables entering your house, vents, chimneys and other small spaces.

Mice can enter a home through an opening less than the diameter of a pencil, they can jump, climb and swim. They leave behind about 100 feeces droppings per day and constant micro droplets of urine that carry many different types of pathogens. They chew wiring that can lead to fire and use various soft materials to nest and can have a half dozen babies every three weeks. Although they have poor eye sight they have a good ears and a great sense of smell and are very

adaptable to their environment. without Spiders are mostly way smaller than Mice so they a food can gain access through even smaller spaces. They are s o u r c e attracted by moisture and food in the form of dead and reproflies.

In this ever changing world, there are times when we find ourselves in stressful situations. We all have good stress and bad stress. It's the good stress that will keep us healthy and happy. Good stress could be being excited about something, or maybe winning a game, go-

ing out on your first date, being with friends that you haven't seen for awhile. Do you remember when you rode the roller coaster, or any of the rides how you felt, even though you were probably screaming as the ride took you very high in the sky and brought you down very fast on the twists and the turns, you could have been a little scared, but it was still exciting this was your good stress. Although good stress is short -lived it will help to inspire you, and give you motivation.

Bad Stress, this is what we need to avoid if at at all possible. There are two types of bad stress, one is acute ( not lasting a long time, not too harmful to your mental and physical health ) or chronic (lasting a long time, can cause very negative things to your mental and physical health.) Bad stress, especially over a long period of time is very bad for your overall mental and physical health. Bad stress can make you feel jittery, make you confused, give you decreased motivation, headaches, insomnia, weight gain, anxiety, high blood pressure, poor concentration, depression, and a heart attack, Each type of stress whether it is good or bad releases hormones in your system called adrenaline and cortisol, these hormones will set off the common signs of your stress. You may have the feeling of "butterflies in your stomach" your heart could be racing, your palms may be sweaty. These are all common reactions to stress. How you feel and or react to your situations will be the difference between the good and bad stress.

Reducing bad stress can be easier than you thought, stress management is finding out what the bad stressors in your life are and how you deal with them.

Sometimes it is the easier things that we don't normally think of.

Are you always finding yourself helping other people out, or doing things that you don't normally want to do?

Learning to say "no" is a great way to start, the more you can say no to others and do the things that you would want to do, will help to begin to slow down the bad stress. If certain people stress you out, try avoiding them, this will also bring down your stress level.

There are some factors beyond our control that other people may do. You are only responsible for

your own behaviour, not that of others.

Do you remember the line from Peter Pan, "Think Happy Thoughts"?

The more positive thoughts you can think about in any good or bad situation will put your brain on the right track to help you have good stress, remember that bad thoughts can lead to having negative behaviour.

Finding someone that you can trust and confide in like your family or friends, or even a professional can be very helpful expressing yourself instead of having your emotions build up in you keeping things bottled inside you can be disastrous.

Relaxing like deep breathing, yoga, and or meditation can help the bad stress to become good stress, it will help to clear your head.

Having a well balanced diet, and adding exercise to your routine, will not only lift your mood but it will also help your body and mind to feel better.

The better rest you can get at night the better it is for you, it can help to alleviate the stress of the day, and can help you fight off the new challenges that could happen the next day.

If your stress level is not chronic, stress can be beneficial and positive for you. The more positive things you can add to your life will help to reduce the chronic stress, which will then help you to have a more healthy balanced quality of life.

Did you know that being grateful for even the smallest things in life, like I am grateful the sun came out today, I am grateful the snails in my garden are no longer there, I am grateful that my car is working today, or I am grateful for my friends? Being grateful is also a great way to improve your mood. Try writing out something every day for whatever you are grateful for whether it is small, large, silly, fun, or anything at least for a month, you will see a vast improvement in how you feel. After a month or so, if you see your good thoughts improve, then continue with your everyday writing of being grateful, make a journal so you can go back and read it at times when you might need a mood booster.

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.

Are You Game?

At the market this year we had a new vendor.

Katherine and Randy Fehr, they were delightful.

Have you heard of them? Well let me tell you a little bit about them, They live in Coldstream and make board games. They made their first board game 33 years ago out of an old game board using construction paper and tape. For many years they played their game with family and friends. In 2019 being inspired by other independent board game designers they decided to make another game. The game was called Klondike-The Canadian Gold Rush Game, in this game you will find the names of the real people from

the great Canadian Gold Rush.

The project took two years of research, testing and designing the art. While this game was in the works they created another two games called The HeistThe Museum of Fine Art, and Steamrolled. Wanting to stay local they contacted an art school in Kelowna, finding an artist by the name of Sam Powell who helped to develop the characters in each game which are diverse in age, gender identity and ethnicity for the games The Heist and Klondike.

The game The Heist is a co-operative game, there is a thief that will try to rob a museum, the other players are the museum staff and will try to find and stop the thief before the thief can steal the art.

Saturday, October 29, 1 - 3pm, The game consists of using a lot of strategies for Cherryville Community Hall, the thief so that being 158 N. Fork Rd, Cherryville BC caught is not easy.

Steamrolled is a fast paced great dice game for

all ages. Here there are coin tokens to use that have been made in Canadian money colors.

Klondike is an exciting board game set during the 1896 gold rush in the Yukon.

Kathrine and Randy have three more games in the development and testing stage, they love every aspect of developing a new board game, from concept to art to production. They are very excited when someone plays their games and lets them know about how much they enjoyed them.

If you would like to check out these fabulous games created by local people go to their website. www.coldstreamgames.com

Take A Hike!

After a short afternoon hike above the Lumby Golf Course in the early spring of 2019 the idea for The Monashee Trail Society was born. It was out of a desire to see accessible, designated, non-motorized trails in and around the Lumby area that would be accessible to everyone in the community as well as a tourist draw.

Next steps included contacting , The Lumby Village Council, Lumby Chamber of Commerce and The Regional District to garner support which they enthusiastically did.

Next came a full cast of board members.

Lindsay Cochrane- President Suzanne Schneider-Vice President Laura Waugh-Treasurer Amand Pinnsonneault- Secretary Russell Braun- Member at Large Steve Cochrane-Member at Large Lorelei Fiset-Member at Large Amanda Miller- Member at Large Darren Schmidt-Member at Large These members come from many different backgrounds and walks of life not necessarily all having experience on a board. The one thing everyone on the

board does share in common is a love of Trails and the community of Lumby.

To date the trail society has met with various other trail groups in the Okanagan to gain an understanding of their goals and mandates and what made them successful.

A meeting was also held with Eric Gagne Forest Supervisor of Tolko Industries to discuss the road up Camels Hump Hiking Trail and happily Tolko Industries has left that road in very much improved conditions.

Recently the society has been exploring and investigating trails around Coppers Launch and hopes to have some signed and designed trails up there as early as next spring.

The Monashee Trail Society reports more events and projects coming in the next year to find out more. You can...

Attend their AGM meeting on October 19th at 7pm at the White Valley Community Center.

Arts & Culture from the Edge

Happening now - Young at Art

'Birch at night' by Betty Remple “Creativity is Intelligence having fun” – Albert Einstein The ability to create is a human necessity; it helps us define who we are as human beings.

Dad Jokes I once wanted to be a photographer, but I realized there’s just to many negatives to deal with! I shutter to think what my have become of me! I tried to look at it through a different lens, but I couldn’t picture anything I would enjoy about it!

My farmer friend advised me on how to grow better corn, but I wasn’t listening closely, so it went in one ear and out the other.

BC Enables Farm-To-Gate Sales Of Cannabis Products The Province is introducing a new cannabis retail licence that will allow eligible federally licensed cannabis producers to sell non-medical cannabis products from stores located at their cultivation site.

When the producer retail store (PRS) licence comes into effect on Nov. 30, 2022, applications will be open through the Liquor and Cannabis Regulation

VILLAGE OF LUMBY

7.12 APPLICATION FOR ELECTOR REGISTRATION The information that electors must provide when applying to register as an elector is outlined in the Local Government Act Section 70. The elector must provide the following when applying: • Full name; • For resident electors, residential address and mailing address, if the mailing address is different; • For non-resident property electors, the address or legal description of real property in respect of which the person is registering and the mail and mailing address, if different; and • Either their birthdate or the last 6 digits of their social number; and • A declaration that the elector meets the qualifications to vote at the election.

The application form must be signed by the elector and a witness to the signature. The witness can be an election official or another person, so long as that person includes their residential address.

To register at the time of voting, a person must apply as set out above or provide the election official with the same information, in a manner established by the CEO. The person will also have to satisfy the election official as to the person’s identity and place of residency. This is done by the person providing at least 2 pieces of identification with at least 1 of which includes the person’s signature. Per the Local Government Election Regulation, acceptable documentation of identification includes the following items (among other items): • • • • • • • • • •

BC Drivers Licence; BC Identification Card; BC Care Card or BC Gold Care Card; BC Services Card with or without a photo; Vehicle insurance papers; Social Insurance Number Card; Citizenship Card; Property tax notice; Credit card or debit card; or Utility bill.

NOTE: If the Drivers Licence and the Care Card are combined, then this document only counts as 1 piece of identification and the elector will have to provide another piece of identification.

Branch's (LCRB) liquor and cannabis licensing portal. All federal standard cultivator, micro-cultivator and nursery licence-holders will be eligible to apply.

This licence was created as part of the Province's commitment to enable farm-to-gate cannabis sales in British Columbia. It is intended to support the development of a robust, diverse and sustainable legal cannabis economy that is inclusive of Indigenous and rural communities.

"The fourth anniversary of the legalization of cannabis in B.C. is around the corner, and we continue to look for ways to support growth of the legal market while providing safe and accessible options for British Columbians," said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General. "The PRS licence is another way we are working to support the success of B.C.-based producers."

PRS licensees will be eligible to register for the BC Liquor Distribution Branch's (LDB) PRS direct-delivery program under the PRS direct-delivery category. PRS direct delivery is limited to the sale of cannabis produced by the cultivator/nursery to the PRS. It is distinct from the broader direct delivery program, which has size-specific eligibility requirements and enables the sale of cannabis to any licensed and authorized cannabis retail store in B.C. The LDB's direct-delivery program allows federally licensed cannabis nurseries and small-scale producers processing as much as 3,000 kilograms of dried, unpackaged cannabis or its fresh equivalent annually to deliver directly to licensed and authorized cannabis retail stores in B.C. The direct-delivery program further enables smallscale cultivators to build brand loyalty with licensed cannabis retail stores and their customers by offering their products in local stores rather than spreading the same volume throughout the province.

This launch follows the recent opening of the first farm-gate cannabis facility in B.C. in Williams Lake, which was a result of the government-to-government agreement between the Province and Williams Lake First Nation.

• Licensed cannabis producers and retail stores in B.C. interested in participating in direct delivery can find information on the program's website: • https://www.bcldbcannabisupdates.com/LDBDirectDeliveryProgram • Information about the BC Indigenous Cannabis Product (BCICP) program: https://www.bcldbcannabisupdates.com/BCICP

Facts about cannabis in B.C. Since the legalization of cannabis on Oct. 17, 2018, the Province has continued to take steps to develop a successful and equitable cannabis industry, centred on providing safe, quality cannabis products.

• The legal cannabis production sector has also grown each year since legalization. As of August 2022, B.C. had 212 federally licensed cannabis producers, 74 of which are micro-producers, as well as 34 public cannabis stores and 441 licences issued for private cannabis retail stores.

• Six First Nations have signed s.119 agreements, including Williams Lake First Nation, which was B.C.'s first production facility to sell directly to customers.

• As of Sept. 28, 2022, there are 350 direct delivery products available from 47 cultivators and 26 processors registered in the program. Products available to licensed and authorized retailers under the direct delivery program will continue to expand over the coming months as licensed cannabis producers complete the registration for eligible products.

• This year, the Province introduced a B.C. Indigenous Cannabis Product program, which highlights Learn More: cannabis products from B.C.-based Indigenous • Information about cannabis regulation in B.C.: https://www.cannabis.gov.bc.ca cannabis producers in private cannabis retail stores, BC Cannabis Stores and online, helping consumers • Information about the Buy Legal campaign: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/safety/pub- easily identify Indigenous products and make purlic-safety/cannabis/buy-legal chasing decisions.

Notes From the Lumby Public Market Well, here we are it is now Fall. The Lumby & District Public Market has now ended for the season. We had a great year, we only had to close early one day.

Some days Mother Nature played horrible tricks on us, the wind she sent us on some days were horrific, we thought that maybe it was a small hurricane or something. At least she didn't surprise us with a monsoon, tons of rain plus the wind all in the same day would be disastrous in the Oval Park.

It was warmer these last two weeks at the market than it had been in the month of May this year, in May we were wearing our toques, warmer coats and gloves! The last two weeks in October we layered our clothes, and by the end of the day we were able to be down to the last layer, Whoo Hoo! We would like to take this time to thank RDNO for renting us the park, The Village of Lumby for keeping the park clean and the use of the electrical boxes and the washrooms.

Thank you also to the entertainment and the car show, also to all of you that entered and came to our Butter Tart Festival. All of our vendors, whether they were drop in or seasonal, and of course all of the patrons that came by even if it was just to chat.

We thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts.

We hope to see all the vendors and the patrons again next year.

The Lumby & District Public will open again in May 2023

Timberwolves Go Back-To-Back

This past weekend (Oct 7/8) the Charles Bloom senior girl’s volleyball team was back in action. This time it was at the “Last Spike” tournament in Revelstoke. In round robin play the Timberwolves had a 3-1 record with wins over AL Fortune, King’s Christian, and Salmon Arm. Their only loss came against the host school, the Revelstoke Avalanche. Charles Bloom got a rematch against Revelstoke in the first round of playoffs, where they took down the Avalanche in straight sets. That win earned them a spot in the gold medal match, where they would face the Salmon Arm Jewels. In the first set, the Timberwolves came out looking to set the tone. Taya Romain started the set by firing in 12 straight serves, while Annie Sawatzky put up 4 big blocks.

Charles Bloom managed a convincing 25-11 win.

The Jewels gained some momentum in the second set, but the Timberwolves battled their way to a 27-25 victory, securing their second tournament championship in two weeks.
