Emily Suchy wins three gold medals at Canada Winter Games

Emily Suchy won all three of her para-Nordic sit-ski races at the Canada Winter Games in Prince George, B.C., last week.

“It’s pretty amazing. I’m super stoked. I’m really happy,” she said on her return home to Revelstoke Monday morning. “It was a really fun week.”

Heading into the games, Suchy was unsure of what to expect. The Canadian para-Nordic community is a small one, and she normally competes against able-bodied athletes in races around B.C.

Her last major national competition was the Canadian National Championships in March 2013, where she won two gold and two sil-ver, including wins over six-time Paralympian Colette Bourgonje.

In Prince George, Suchy raced against four other sit-skiers. They were a small group amongst the 2,400 athletes at the games. The huge closing ceremonies reminded her of the Hunger Games movies, she said.

The races were in the afternoon, which presented a challenge for Suchy, who is used to competing in the morning. “I tried to sleep in and relax in the morning,” she said. “Do some general race prep and telling myself there’s nothing I can do and make the best of however I’m feeling.”

She went into the competion aiming to podium in all of her races. In the end, she stood on top each time, easily topping the women’s � eld and posting times that were competitive with the men.

Suchy started her week on Monday, Feb. 26, with a gold medal in the 2.5 kilometre race, � nishing more than two minutes ahead of run-ner-up Tanya Quesnel.

On Tuesday, Suchy raced to � rst in the 800 metre spring, � nishing 20 seconds ahead of Quesnel.

Suchy capped off her week with another convincing win in the � ve-kilometre race on Thursday, � nishing in 18:20.8 — almost 3:40 faster than Quesnel.

Suchy has Perthes Syndrome, which limits the mobility in her hips, preventing her to compete in regulard cross-country skiing races. She took up ski-skiing as a way to get out on the trails with her friends.

Unfortunately, this is the highest level Suchy will be able to com-pete at because she doesn’t meet the guidelines for international com-petition.

“My strength and � exibility is too great to � t these guidelines,” she said. “I tried to argue against it because I clearly can’t standing-ski. I fall between the cracks between able bodied and para-Nordic, which is really frustrating.”

She said she wants to continue in the sport, but isn’t sure because of her inability to move up to bigger competition.

“To really perform at a high level you need to go outside the coun-try,” she said. “I haven’t quite decided what I’m going to do with it next year. I think I’m going to switch my focus to another sport — probably biking this summer.”

Suchy’s next competition is the Canadian championships in Thun-der Bay, Ont., starting March 11.

Wayne Stetski running for NDPFormer Cranbrook mayor will attempt to end Conservative stranglehold over Kootenay-Columbia riding in 2015 Federal election.

The former mayor of Cranbrook will attempt to unseat MP David Wilks in the riding of Kootenay–Columbia.

Wayne Stetski, who spent his career working for BC Parks and the BC Ministry of the Environment, before entering local politics, is running for the New Democratic Party in the 2015 federal election.

“I truly believe in public service,” he said when asked why he was running. “I’ve spent my whole life serving the public and I think this is a way I can help the constituents here in the Kootenay-Columbia rid-ing.”

Stetski faces an uphill battle in attempting to unseat Wilks, who won the seat by almost 10,000 votes in 2011, and who’s Conservative predecessor Jim Abbott held the seat for 18 years.

Stetski was a manager for BC Parks from 1980–2002 before becoming the regional manager for the Kootenays for the BC Ministry of the Environment until 2009. He ran for mayor of Cranbrook in 2008, losing out by 200 votes. He ran again in 2011, this time emerging at the top of the polls.

As mayor, he said he focused on the non-core roles of municipal government like arts, multiculturalism, accessibility, and support for youth and seniors.

“I look at it as a holistic approach to managing the community and a willingness to put taxpayer dollars into more than the fundamental roles of municipal government,” he said.

Stetski was unsuccessful in his 2014 re-election bid, losing by more than 1,000 votes despite increas-ing his own vote count. Still, he said he was proud of his record.

After losing the election, Stetski wrote himself a letter asking himself the reasons he should run feder-ally for the NDP. “The answer came very clearly and very quickly that under Harper’s Conservative gov-ernment, I’m starting to miss the Canada that I know and love,” he said.

Stetski came up with four main issues while writ-ing his letter:

— The changing role of the military away from peacekeeping, and the treatment of veterans.

— The cuts to the CBC. “I think we need more

In March, we put the spotlight on poison prevention to raise awareness of possible sources of poisoning in our homes. Examples include little soft pillows of detergent for our dish and clothes washers. Purses may contain medications, toothpaste, nicotine sources (cigarettes, gums, e-cigarettes) and alcohol found in perfumes, hand sanitizers and mouthwash. Look carefully at these poisoning sources and keep your children safe.

Sometimes, when we reach for another sugar-containing soft drink, it is beneficial to imagine how much

exercise it takes to burn off those extra calories. Most of these drinks contain 150 to 170 calories and 41 to 46 grams of sugar. To work off one can, you would have to walk at medium speed for 38 minutes; run 6 mph for 13 minutes; ride a bike for 17 minutes. Kind of puts it into perspective.

Compression stockings have their greatest pressure at the ankle and reduce going up the leg. They are helpful in preventing deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in the lower leg). They may relieve symptoms and even slow the progress of varicose

veins. They also help prevent the blood from pooling in the lower legs which can cause skin breakdown. Your doctor can advise if these stockings will help you.

A blood test is perhaps the most common of diagnostic tools. Back in 1884, German scientists found a way to count red blood cells for the very first time. This made diagnosis of anemia much easier.

In matters of health, it’s nice to deal with people you know. We’d be happy to get to know you better. Drop in for our brand of service soon.

CHANGE!

The Revelstoke Museum & Archives is launching their new exhibit on the history of avalanches in Canada this Wednesday, Mar. 4.

Land of Thundering Snow — Snow Research and Avalanche Safety in Can-ada provides an interactive history of avalanches in Canada. It can be found both in the museum and online at the Virtual Museum of Canada.

The exhibit consists of several com-ponents — a historical look at significant

avalanches in Canada history, informa-tion about avalanche science and safety, avalanche control, how avalanches hap-pen, and the ecology of avalanches.

The exhibit was curated thanks to $235,000 in funding from the Virtual Exhibits Investment Program of the Vir-tual Museum of Canada. John Woods served as the lead researcher on the project.

Opening day coincides with the anni-versary of the 1910 avalanche that killed 58 railway workers in Rogers Pass.

The exhibit opening takes place in

two parts. The physical exhibit will open at 3 p.m at the museum. It will include elements of the online version, as well some artifacts relating to ava-lanche safety and research.

In the evening, the virtual exhibit will be launched at the Revelstoke Per-forming Arts Centre starting at 7 p.m. There will be several special guest speakers, including Peter Schaerer, one of the pioneering avalanche profession-als with Parks Canada. It will be fol-lowed by a reception and partner dis-plays in the lobby.

RCEC fire: Damage to roof delaying investigation

The amount of damage done to Revelstoke's district heating plant is still being investigated, several days after the building caught fire.

Geoff Battersby, the chair of the Revelstoke Community Energy Corporation, said last week that an insurance adjustor had visited the site, but the fire inspector hasn't been able to enter the building.

"He can't complete his business yet because of the fact there's dan-gers with the roof," said Battersby. "WorkSafeBC is here and they will be issuing their edicts about what has to be done from a safety point-of-view."

The RCEC plant, which is located on Downie Street next the Downie Timber mill, caught fire late in the night of Sunday, Feb. 25. It took Revelstoke Fire Rescue Ser-vices about three hours to extin-guish the blaze.

Battersby said the fire appeared to be restricted to the roof structure, which was severely damaged. The fire does not appear to have spread to the equipment down below, but there is water damage caused by efforts to extinguish the blaze.

"It's really quite amazing how things look below the roof line," he said. "Debris was falling down so

there's lots of litter on the floor, but because the sprinkler system was going it was putting out things as they fell."

The sprinkler system did not affect the fire, because it occurred in the roof, above the sprinklers.

Battersby said the damaged roof will have to be removed from the building before the inspector can complete his work. The main con-trol room, located at the front of the building, emerged unscathed, but there is likely damage to the elec-tronics that run some of the sys-tems.

He said a demolition crew needs to be brought in to remove the roof.Once it is removed and the building is cleaned up, they’ll be able to get an idea of what’s needed to bring the plant back on line.

The timeline for completely repairing the system remains unknown.

"Hopefully things won't be as bad as they might have been, but it's still a pretty devastating thing," said Battersby. "It's going to take a while to get it back on track."

RCEC acquired a boiler that was in the midst of being installed as of press time. The propane boiler will allow RCEC to resume providing heat to its customers, which includes Downie Timber, city hall, the com-munity centre, the aquatic centre,

Minto Manor, Revelstoke Second-ary School, and Begbie View Ele-mentary.

Most buildings switched to

back-up systems. The aquatic cen-tre closed the hot tub, tot pool and waterslide due to the loss of its main heat source. The lap pool and

leisure pool remained open, but at a slightly cooler temperature than normal, said the City of Revelstoke in a news release.


The bulk of the damage to the Revelstoke Community Energy Corporation district heating facility appears to be confined to the roof, says chair Geoff Battersby. Alex Cooper/Revelstoke Times Review

country building, not less,” he said. — Lack of democracy in Ottawa.

“It’s the fact that under the Conser-vative Harper government, every vote in Parliament is a whipped vote where you do what the PM and cab-inet tell you to, no matter what the constituents feel back home,” he said. “That needs to change. We need an MP that will truly be a voice

for the people of the Kootenays.” — Cutbacks to environmental

programs. “You need a sustainable environment to have sustainable economy,” he said. “The two need to go hand-in-hand as priorities.”

Stetski said he opted to run for the NDP because the party’s prior-ities align with his own. He added they also stand the best chance of defeating the Conservatives in the riding, particularly with the addition

of the Nelson area. He took Wilks to task for his

2012 comments saying he couldn’t vote against the omnibus budget bill without the support of 12 of his Conservative colleagues, even if his constituents were opposed to it.

“I think one of the fundamen-tal questions going forward — who is going to best represent the con-cerns, the issues in Ottawa and make sure the voices of the Kootenays are

heard?” Stetski said.He said the big issues for the rid-

ing were highway improvements, the economy, and wages. He said the minimum wage should be raised gradually to $15 per hour, to make it closer to a living wage. He also said he would fight against federal down-loading of services.

“I want to make sure the federal government is taking on the roles and responsibilities they should be

on all of these issues,” he said.Stetski said he will be travelling

the constituency from now until the election, which is set for Monday, Oct. 19.

“I intend to be out there around the riding, meeting with people, inviting them to come to a local coffee shop and tell me what’s on their mind, and make sure once I’m elected those priorities are the ones I take to Ottawa,” he sad.

Revelstoke council agreed to waive the golf club's outstanding rent and sign a new lease with the club that would see it go rent free for the next two years while a task force works to study the golf club's future.

“I don’t see any point in burdening them with a lease they can’t pay because I would rather them do what they have been doing, which is paying down their debt," said mayor Mark McKee during Tuesday's council meet-ing. "What’s the point of collecting money they can’t afford, then have them pay less down on their debt, or have the debt increas-ing?"

The Revelstoke Golf Club leases the golf course from the city. According to a staff report, the Revelstoke Golf Club has not paid its rent for the past year and owes the city about $43,000, including taxes and interest.

There was some hesitation to the request, with councillor Connie Brothers saying she was concerned about eliminating future rent.

“I think it has to be limited to a certain period of time and we can review it then," she said.

Her suggestion was seconded by coun. Gary Sulz. "I understand the point of writ-ing off the rent because they don’t have any money and I’m for us not beating a dead horse," he said, adding the agreement should be short-term. “We cannot continue to write off their financial obligations.”

McKee proposed an amendment so the next lease would only be for two years. It was passed unanimously by council.

The decision to waive the club's rent was followed by a vote to establish a task force to create a long-term sustainable plan for the club.

The task force would be expected to develop a 10-year capital improvement plan for the club, make recommendations

for future priorities, investigate ways to ensure the club's is sustainable, help the club develop community partnerships and provide regular reports to council regarding mainte-nance issues.

Part of the goal of the plan "would be to include options for funding that would remove the burden for fixing the Golf Club-house from the tax payer and utilize fund-ing opportunities," states a staff report on the matter.

The task force would include two golf club board members, one city councillor, a member from the Revelstoke Accommoda-tion Association, one from the Chamber of Commerce, Rural Revelstoke director Loni Parker, and three members from the public at large.

"The city is not going to turn its back on the golf club," said McKee. "It wants to be there, it wants to help, but it also wants to get the golf course into a sustainable future.”

COUNCIL MOVES ON MACKENZIE LANDING DEVELOPMENT

Council gave staff the go ahead to begin work on a re-zoning application for the mas-sive Mackenzie Landing development pro-posed for Arrow Heights.

The plan is for a high-density, mixed-use development with upwards of 1,500 units on the property off Nichol Road, between Arrow Heights Elementary and Hay Road.

The plan is to zone the 35-acre property as a comprehensive development zone, with multiple sub-zones. The re-zoning process would also include an extensive public con-sultation, including multiple open houses.

“I’m glad about the augmented consulta-tion process,” said councillor Aaron Orlando. “It’s big numbers as proposed and its really important we get it right.”

His remarks were echoed by Mayor Mark McKee. “I think it will pay off in the long run,” he said.

Coun. Linda Nixon said she appreciated the fact the proposal appears to take past feedback into consideration.

“I really like the idea of the park buffer they are using between Biatecki and this new sub-division,” she said. “I think that will be really important.”

VACATION RENTAL ENFORCE-MENT: “DON’T BE A PAIN TO YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD”

Revelstoke council opted to take a com-plaints-based approach to illegal vacation rentals.

The system will operate like most of the city’s bylaw enforcement policy — if a neigh-bour complains, the city will come investi-

gate. If you’re good, they’ll leave you alone.The decision came in response to a staff

report that estimates there is anywhere from 60 to 100 vacation rentals operating in Rev-elstoke. They advertise on sites like VRBO and AirBnCn. Eight applications have come in for legal vacation rentals.

Councillor Connie Brothers said she was concerned a complaints-based policy would discourage people from legalizing their vaca-tion rentals.

Other councillors noted that having staff track down illegal rentals would take a lot of time and cost the city money.

“People need to complain to city hall because we can’t pay our Commissionaires to drive down every road in Revelstoke,” said coun. Linda Nixon.

Mayor Mark McKee supported the com-plaints-based policy. “The number one key of a vacation rental is don’t be a pain to your neighbourhood,” he said.

Students urge safe social media strategies

Students celebrated Pink Shirt Day at the B.C. legislature Wednesday, Feb. 25, with poetry, drama and advice for students to avoid bullying and exploita-tion from predators using social media.

The featured guest was Travis Price, who started Pink Shirt Day as a high school student in Nova Scotia in 2007.

“Travis is a hero of the anti-bullying movement in this coun-try, and he started something that won’t be stopped any time soon,” said Premier Christy Clark, who took up the cause after reading news reports about Price’s effort.

Price saw two of his fel-low grade 12 students harass a younger student for wearing a pink shirt, so he and his friend bought 75 pink tank tops and handed them out at the school the next day. They promoted the idea on social media and it caught on, with hundreds of students wear-ing pink to school.

“It is hard to stand up for peo-ple, but it’s all about taking that risk and hoping you can make

somebody’s life better,” Price told a group of students and politi-cians at a noon-hour rally on the legislature steps.

Members of a B.C. student advisory committee released guidelines for safe online inter-action to protect their privacy and prevent misuse or exploita-tion. The guidelines are posted at www.erasebullying.ca along with

general advice for students.The website also has a way for

B.C. students to make an anony-mous report that they are being bullied.

Speakers reinforced one piece of advice from the website, urg-ing students to talk to their friends in person whenever they can, rather than in texting or chat-ting online.

This is the third in a monthly series of columns from local elected of� cials. This month, councillor Linda Nixon, the chair of the city’s � nance com-mittee, writes about the budget.

The � rst draft of the 2015-2019 budget for the City of Revelstoke was prepared by city staff and presented to mayor and council on Febru-ary 20. Further meetings are planned that will give us the opportunity to both learn about municipal � nancial planning and to provide staff with direc-tion in amending the plan as we move forward through the process. There will also be an opportunity for citizens to pro-vide feedback on the � nancial plan through a public process.

The main costs in provid-ing city services are infrastruc-ture needs such as water, sewer and roads. Parks and recreation provide a healthy environment for citizens to enjoy and engage with each other.

The community undertook an Integrated Community Sus-tainability Plan in 2013 to

guide future planning for the economic, environmental and social needs of the community. Recently the new council met to develop a strategic plan to drive the next four years. The � nished document should be completetd this month. Goals accompanied by objectives that are speci� c and measurable will keep Revelstoke moving forward.

We have a diversi� ed econ-omy in that there is CPR, BC Hydro and a strong forestry industry in town. There is also a growing and healthy manu-facturing sector. On the tourism side, our mountains and lakes offer a rich diversity of sum-mer and winter sports includ-ing alpine and Nordic ski-ing, mountain biking, hiking, climbing, � shing, dirt biking and camping.

Balancing our needs is 80 percent of the budget — the core. The wants are about 20 percent. Satisfying every-one with the tax pie is impos-sible. It is the job of the coun-cil to attempt in a very serious manner to make the pie palat-able to all classes of the taxpay-ers — residential, commercial businesses, light manufactur-ers, heavy industry and utili-ties. There is also a small class of seasonal property. We have no private forest lands within the municipality.

The � rst draft of the 2015-2019 budget was � rst studied by the new council on Friday, February 20. Mayor McKee

turned the meeting over to Gra-ham Inglis, the � nance direc-tor, to lead council through the document. The new coun-cil will ask the questions and make the decisions as the bud-get is shifted and shaped in budget meetings.

There is a long standing policy in the City of Revel-stoke that the total tax burden is shared equally between resi-dential and business classes.

For this budget, coun-cil will proceed without input from a community-based focus group. In the fall of 2015, the focus group will be called to add back a broader community voice at the budget table for future budgets. The goal is to have the 2016 budget done ear-lier than this one.

As well as municipal taxes, the city collects tax for the school district, the Columbia Shuswap Regional District, the North Okanagan Regional Hospital Board, the Okana-gan Library, the BC Assess-ment Authority, and the Munic-ipal Finance Authority. Utility charges are also included in the residential tax payment state-ments. As these revenues come into the city coffers mid-year, due on July 2, the council of the day must pass a bylaw allowing the city to borrow from a line of credit from January to July if need be. This line of credit has not been used for several years and should not need to be used this year for the city of Revel-stoke.

The assessment value of a home or business is done by BC Assessment, an indepen-dent body crown corporation of the provincial government. The City of Revelstoke has had a roller coaster of assessments in the last 10 years where hous-ing assessments doubled then fell after the global recession. There is not a predictable, steady forecast of assessments. When assessments decrease, it becomes necessary to increase the tax rate for each tax class in order to maintain a particular budget level.

This year, the overall assess-ment total is slightly up from last year. The previous coun-cil started a reserve fund to try to help buffer some of these changes which can affect the latter years of a multi-year bud-get.

Another challenge to fore-casting is inaccurate census data. The of� cial current pop-ulation of Revelstoke is 7,200 which swells in both winter and again in summer. Services need to be provided not only for the base population, but also for the seasonal increases. Many businesses bene� t directly from the seasonal population surge. Many residents bene-� t from the enhanced tourism infrastructure such as the ski hill, the cross-country ski lodge with lights for night skiing, the snowmobiling cabin and groomer, enhancements which

Revelstoke is one of fourteen local governments that is desig-nated as a Resort Municipality by the Province of British Colum-bia. This gives the community additional tourism infrastructure monies from the Province in the form of a grant that must be used

to develop tourism infrastruc-ture. This funding is adminis-tered by the Department of Com-munity Economic Development, which is accountable to city council. A special two per cent hotel tax is collected by the prov-ince on every hotel room within city limits. This money is remit-ted to the city and flows from the city through to the Revelstoke Accommodation Association.

These funds can only be used for tourism promotion activities.

The Regional District also has an Economic Opportunity Fund which can be used for projects in the area that meet the criteria of providing new economic projects. BC Hydro pays a grant in lieu of taxes. This grant is expected to increase when the sixth generat-ing station is installed.

Pink Shirt Day in Revelstoke

Above: Begbie View Elementary students were dressed in pink for their school assembly last Wednesday.; Below, left: A student wears a no-bullying shirt at Columbia Park Elementary.; Below right: CPE students hold the word ‘diversity’ — the theme of the school’s Pink Shirt Day assembly.

Alex Cooper/Revelstoke Times Review

Revelstoke marked Pink Shirt Day last Wednesday, with people all over town decked out in pink.

The day is marked to pro-mote awareness about bullying. It started in Nova Scotia in 2007 after students wore pink shirts in support of another student who

was bullied for wearing pink.Since then, the day has been

marked across Canada and recog-nized by the United Nations.

Revelstoke's three elementary schools held special assemblies to mark the day — I made it to Beg-bie View and Columbia Park Ele-mentary schools.

At Begbie View, the focus was on kindness, with the grade 3/4

class reading out a poem encour-aging students to "Choose kind-ness" — as it ended with a flour-ish. The school has adopted the slogan "be a buddy, not a bully."

At Columbia Park, the focus for the day was on diversity. Stu-dents were encouraged to raise their hand and say what makes them unique. Many of them did.

Ski town stoke-folk musicians Shred Kelly are currently tak-ing their unique sound across the country and they'll be stopping in Revelstoke on Wednesday, March 11.

Times Review freelancer Melissa Jameson recently chat-ted with vocalist and keyboard player Sage McBride about the band's newest album Sing to the Night, filming the video for the title track, and why their current tour includes stops off the ski-town circuit.

TR: Your video for Sing to the Night is pretty much a big tribute to everything 80s – fanny packs, hula-hoops, mullets, hot-doggin skiers -- where did the idea come from?

Sage: We have this day in Fer-nie called hot dog day. People dress up in retro ski gear and hot dog down in a group. I've been

in Fernie for 10 years and that's always been a highlight. I thought it would be awesome if we could do a retro ski video. I also thought it would be really cool if we could film it all in one shot. Dylan Sig-gers, who filmed it for us, had to ski backwards the whole time. He's a pro skier, I don't think any-one else could have pulled it off.

TR: Sing to the Night hap-pens to also be the title of your recently released album. It's already received praise from var-ious media (CBC, Exclaim Maga-zine, Aesthetic Magazine).

Sage: We're excited with the reception of it. We worked with same producer as the last album [John Critchley]. He does a really great job at capturing the energy of our live sound, but translating that into the music. He always pushes us harder than we're able to push ourselves which is always what we want in the studio It's definitely different than our last work. Lyrically it's a bit more

thoughtful and we experimented with different tempos.

TR: What was the most diffi-cult aspect of recording Sing to the Night?

Sage: I guess with the writ-ing it's always just kind of figur-ing out which direction you want to go – you write a song and you love it but wonder if that's too far outside the genre we've kind of created.

TR: How big of a factor are the ski resorts when planning to go on tour?

Sage: On this tour, it wasn't as big of a factor. We still love going back to ski towns because we sort of did the ski town circuit. We're still hitting up some ski towns, but I guess the focus has been sort of to spread the music as far as possible. Ski towns are where our heart is, but this tour made sure we went across the entire country.

Shred Kelly perform at the Tra-verse on Wednesday, March 11. Tickets are $10..

The Revelstoke Bantam Grizzlies are off to the provincial championships after sweeping Kamloops in the Okanagan-Mainline Amateur Hockey Associ-ation Tier 4 league finals on Saturday.

They didn't make it easy, that's for sure.Revelstoke won game one 3-0 in Kamloops last

weekend. On Saturday, Kamloops was in Revel-stoke, with the home team looking to secure their spot at the provincial championships.

Things looked good for the first half, with Revel-stoke dominating play and racking up a 9-2 lead by the middle of the second period.

That's when things got interesting.Kamloops scored twice before the period was

over to make it 9-4. They got two more goals in the first three minutes of the third. All of a sudden it was 9-6, with a lot of hockey left to play and Kamloops enjoying the advantage of a deeper bench; they had 10 extra skaters to Revelstoke's seven.

It got worse, when a Revelstoke player was assessed major penalty. They killed it off, but that wasn't the end of their penalty trouble.

Kamloops made it 9–7 late in the third, then 9–8 with about a minute to go. At this point, a clearly exhausted Revelstoke team was hanging on. There was a noticeable tension in the arena as Kamloops pulled their goalie for one final push. They pres-sured, but the puck stayed out and a joyful Revel-stoke squad leapt in celebration.

They will now be heading to the provincials in Fraser Lake, B.C., from March 15–20.

They are the second Revelstoke team to qual-ify for provincials after the peewee team did so last week.

Revelstoke's atom team play in their league finals tonight in Sicamous, where they take on Lumby. Last week, the boys tied Salmon Arm in Sicamous 4-4 and beat Vernon 12-1. They then faced Vernon again in the semi-finals, where the score was 6-3. That set the stage for tonight's game against Lumby.

Bantams off to provincialsALEX [email protected]

The Bantam Grizzlies celebrate after holding on to beat Kamloops 9-8 on Sat-urday, earning themselves a spot in the provincial championships.

Rachel V. Dennis Rachel V. Dennis (née Drake) passed away peacefully in to the arms of Jesus, her Lord and Saviour on February 21, 2015. She was born in Portland, Oregon on September 28, 1921.

Rachel is survived by her son Jerry (Margaret) of Sandy Lake, Manitoba, grandchildren Jennifer Dennis (Paul) of Kingston, Ontario, Jamie Dennis (Shawn) of Syracuse, New York and six great grandchildren. She is also survived by her brother Sherman Drake and niece Janice Cannarile of Washington, nephews Wayne and Wynn Klein and nieces Wendy, Wanda and Willa of Oregon.

Rachel moved to Brandon, Manitoba in 2009, when her son and daughter-in-law relocated there. She resided at Victoria Landing Retirement Residence and later, Fairview Home. She enjoyed Victoria Landing, having her own suite. In keeping with her easy going personality, she thought both were great places to live.

Rachel and her husband Les moved to Revelstoke from Oregon in 1969. They enjoyed many years together before Dad’s passing in 2008. Mom’s favourite activities were hunting and fishing trips, having grandchildren over, visiting friends and playing cards, especially cribbage. She did a lot of canning and cooking. There was always room at the table for one more. She never met anyone she didn’t like.

A Funeral Service was held on Monday, March 2, 2015 at the Fellowship Baptist Church in Revelstoke. Interment followed in Mountain View Cemetery, Revelstoke, along with her husband Les’ ashes. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Rachel may be made to the Revelstoke Humane Society, Box 340, Revelstoke, BC, V0E 2S0.

Messages of condolence may be placed at www.brockiedonovan.com. Arrangements are in care of Brockie Donovan Funeral & Cremation Services, Brandon, MB, (204) 727-0694, in conjunction with Brandon Bowers Funeral Home, Revelstoke.
