Roots & Blues Festival in jeopardyFinances: Society plans to host a fundraising concert to continue operations.

The Salmon Arm Folk Music Society is look-ing to do what it does best to save the Roots and Blues Festival.

Music society board member Kelly Moores says the organization is considering a concert to help raise the funds needed to hold the festival next year.

“We’ll work with Peter (artistic director Peter North), see if we can get one or two headline acts at 10 cents on the dollar, you know, all the local musicians that we’ve helped along the way, see if they can perform for free… all the fun we can

for the Save-the-Roots-and-Blues fundraiser,” Moores said Monday during a presentation to Salmon Arm city council. Moores was accom-panied by fellow board members Brook Roberts and Doug Hearn during a public input meeting for next year’s municipal budget. But as Moores and company explained, the music society needs help sooner rather than later.

“We need your help if we’re going to con-tinue,” said Moores, who described the society’s financial situation for the festival as “desperate.”

“It’s a blunt statement, but it’s the absolute truth. Our operating budget does not allow us to book performers for the 2015 Roots and Blues Festival right now.”

Roberts, the society’s treasurer, explained the organization needs to raise $150,000 this fall in order to continue to pay working staff, pay rent and start booking bands for next year’s festival.

“What we’re asking for is any help the city can provide to level the playing field with our ‘com-petition,’” added Moores.

Much of the 45-minute presentation revolved around how the society has wound up in this sit-uation, and what they are looking to do in order to cut costs.

Moores said the initial hit this year came with

the loss of the festival’s largest corporate spon-sor, Sirius Satellite, and its $50,000 contribu-tion. The cost of hiring a security company – a provincial requirement – was another $20,000 hit (up from $11,500 in 2012). Other fixed costs included site rental ($12,500), por-ta-potties ($20,000), electricity and staging ($80,000).

“All of our com-petitors have their sites at no charge,” said Moores. “Most of them even have perma-nent stages construct-ed, power, water and, in many cases, wash-rooms – things like that, which is a huge chunk of our operating budget.”

Moores said com-peting festivals in the region had an impact this year, as did the weather.

“When you looked at the forecasts three days prior, two days prior… people made that de-cision not to come,” Moores explained. “It’s evidenced by our atten-dance being down 10 per cent – a little under 10 per cent. That really mirrors what our drop in walk-up ticket sales was for the event. And that’s that sweet spot that we needed to hit in order to make the event financially successful.”

For this year’s festi-val, the artistic budget was cut by $60,000 or 17 per cent from the year prior, and Hearn said the society is look-ing to further reduce the number of acts, and

stages, at next year’s festival.

This, in turn, would reduce costs associated with artist accommo-dation and volunteers, which he said amounts to $36,000 ($40 per volunteer).

Roberts said one of the challenges is balancing the cost of headline acts with the rest of the festival. He explained how, for this year’s festival, the so-ciety offered $150,000 – half of the artistic budget – to the Tragi-cally Hip, but were turned down. Rejec-tion also came from Sarah McLachlan, who the society offered $100,000 to play plus overnight accommo-dation and flights to and from her summer home in Tofino.

Hearn said the soci-

ety will also be look-ing at cutting outreach programs including Routes and Blues, as well as grants to festi-val partners.

Council noted there is no money left in the 2014 budget (from which the society was allotted $45,000), but was amenable to hav-ing staff work with them in order to find some short-term solu-tions.

They’re on the way.An estimated 10 mil-

lion sockeye salmon are rallying for the domi-nant run of their four-year cycle – and some are already on their way.

Based on a test fish-ery conducted below and above the Mission Bridge on the Fraser River, 56 per cent of fish below the bridge were late-run sockeye, many of whom will attract thousands of visitors to the world-famous Sa-lute to the Sockeye on the Adams River.

“It’s probably up since then,” said Stu Cartwright, acting area director of the federal Department of Fisher-ies and Oceans for the B.C. Interior. “Based on DNA samples from below the bridge Sept. 3, the bulk of the fish (56 per cent) are late run Shuswap Lake and Adams River sockeye.”

But Cartwright cau-tioned that while DFO uses the best science available, acoustic counting, test fisheries and ground observa-tion, the numbers are preliminary.

“Based on what was tested last week, it’s in

the 10 million range, but it could be anywhere from 8 to 12 million,” he said. “The range is where it’s expected to be, but that range will change a couple of times a week.”

Complicating the is-sue is that other species of salmon are also in the river.

“We’re anticipating a reasonable run; it’s probably gonna be one of the stronger ones,” Cartwright said. “We’re hoping it will produce several million fish, but you won’t see 10 mil-lion at Adams River, you have to subtract for the commercial, First Nations and recreation-al fisheries.”

While the bulk of the Adams River sockeye were still holding in the Gulf of Georgia and in the mouth of the Fraser River, they are starting the long journey home – one that takes close to two weeks.

“They’re making up the bulk of what’s com-ing into the river but they’re still 10 days to two weeks away,” Cart-wright says of the large gathering of sockeye. “We don’t know what will push the button to trigger the run – nature has its way of doing it. The big push should

begin sometime within the next six to 10 days.”

Unlike some years when high tempera-tures and low water lev-els seriously impacted salmon runs, conditions appear to be accommo-dating this year.

Dean Allan, resource manager for the mid-F r a s e r / T h o m p s o n Okanagan runs, says DFO crews are moni-toring the Fraser River.

“They are always keeping their eyes out for stressed or dy-ing fish,” Allan says. “They’re not seeing a lot; fish condition is reported to be good in general.”

Early summer sock-eye runs to Scotch Creek and the Seymour and Eagle rivers are

well below the 3.8 mil-lion return expected.

“The 1.8 or 1.5 mil-lion or so were early with one small portion going to Scotch Creek,” said Cartwright, not-ing it’s too early to put numbers on runs to the Eagle and Seymour riv-ers and smaller creeks. “It was slow and a little bit late, but I think the numbers are starting to show themselves – not in the numbers fore-cast.”

Cartwright says the forecast was based on the high numbers of fish in the 2010 run.

“We’re certainly not disappointed by pre-liminary numbers,” he said. We’re long from seeing the last fish com-ing.”

n Most of the late-run sockeye salmon that draw huge crowds to Roderick Haig-Brown Park in a dominant-run year are gathered in the Gulf of Georgia or in the mouth of the Fraser River, ready for nature’s signal to begin the arduous two-week trip to their spawning grounds.

This year’s Fall Fair was a success that had or-ganizers, participants and fairgoers smiling.

“We’re up for a third year in a row,” said enthu-siastic fair administrator Kelly Weightman. “We had 8,900 paid visitors – that doesn’t include ex-hibitors – that’s what the gates took in.”

Add in exhibitors and volunteers and the num-ber rises to 12,000.

Not only did the gate increase by 375 over last year, the indoor arena was packed with 88 ven-dors – “way more than last year,” according to Lori Graham, who is in charge of concessions and commercial booths.

Weightman was bubbling over with this year’s many successes and plans for the next fair.

“This was a record-breaking year for the com-mercial division; Lori did an outstanding job as she always does,” said Weightman. “And with our 4-H beef, there were record-breaking livestock entries.”

Attendance records were also broken over at Shooting Star’s midway.

“They were absolutely thrilled and they are great to work with; we’re very happy with them,” said Weightman, noting that since Shooting Star took over three years ago, nighttime problems have dropped away.

Wide smiles and enthusiasm were the hallmark of 4-H members at the Salmon Arm Fall Fair.

Eager to join in the fair’s celebra-tion of 100 years of 4-H, members and leaders alike raved about their experience.

Secretary to the Salmon Arm 4-H Senior Council, Joan O’Brien has been involved with the organization for 36 years. While she no longer leads hands-on clubs, O’Brien re-mains very involved with the organi-zation that she says develops respon-sibility, self assurance and opens the door to many opportunities.

“It was awesome; everyone went all out, decorated their stalls and took part in the opening ceremony,” she says of the fair, noting every 4-H club did a stint serving food at the 4-H concession.

Taking their turn at the food con-cession , Dairy Club members Taylia Rees, Elizabeth Ferguson, her sister Pauline and Kyona Bruns expressed a love of animals and their commitment

to the organization.“And it’s a way to connect with

people on other farms,” added Pau-line.

Trudy Schweb, North Okanagan Beef Club leader for four years, loves the tight-knit relationships that de-velop among member families and says it also teaches kids communica-tion skills as every member, no matter what club, must do public speaking.

“Kids with farm experience, their resumes go to the top,” she says. “They know the kids take responsibil-ity and know about hard work.”

Shuswap 4-H Dairy leader Brian Hamming has about 70 kids in his club and echoes many of Schweb’s comments.

“The kids get to meet other kids with the same interests,” he adds.

Goat project leader Star McGregor has been involved with the organiza-tion for 30 years, 17 of them as an of-ficial leader.

“I believe it’s a really good organi-zation that creates responsible people, caring for animals and other people.”

Living on a farm is not a prerequi-site to being a member of 4-H.

n Mariah Mitchell, a proud 4-H member, shows off her one-and-a-half-year-old Charolais and Angus mix calf, Misty at the Fall Fair last Friday.

SWC_Snap_NewspaperAd_1408.indd 1 14-08-25 11:22 AM

Have you ever had the feeling that someone or something is watching you?

I remember one time when I was a kid. I was fish-ing with my cousin Charlie and we were both lying on a big, flat rock, with our fish-ing rods stretched out over a deep pool that always held the promise of a couple of nice trout.

We were lying on our stomachs and I remember how the warm sun felt on the back of my neck – it sort of sent a shiver through my whole body. That was when I suddenly got the feeling that something was there, watching me. I turned my head to the side and saw a garter snake about three feet away. It was complete-ly motionless except for its tongue that was flickering back and forth. It was sens-ing me by sensing the air between us.

I too remained motion-less. I found myself star-ing into its eyes for what seemed like several min-utes, although, in reality, it was probably only a matter of several seconds.

Then it slithered off into the nearby grass and disap-peared.

When I told Charlie about what had just happened, he said something like “cool” or “neat,” and just kept on fishing.

After a few minutes he asked what kind of snake it had been and I replied by saying I was pretty sure that it was a garter snake. He said it was more likely a gopher snake, like the kind that were sometimes under the steps in our grandmoth-er’s root cellar.

In nature, snakes do not bother me. Under those steps I figured they were more likely to be rattle

snakes, coiled and ready to strike at the ankles of any unsuspecting young kid who had been sent down to get a bottle of pickled beets or crab apple jam.

My point in relating these incidents is that I have al-ways been more fascinated with snakes than apprehen-sive of them. That was why I had remained so motion-less that day by the creek, so that the snake would not try to escape and I could get a really good look at it.

Snakes seem to have got-ten a bad rap over time, at least in our Western culture. Maybe it goes back to the whole Adam and Eve thing in the Garden of Eden.

The old cowboy movies, where some guy in a white cowboy hat and a pearl-handled six gun shoots a rattler just as it is about to strike at the heroine, didn’t do much for the snake’s reputation either.

Any way you look at it, instead of admiring such beautiful creatures, too many kids nowadays are more likely to be fright-ened of a snake and run

away from it or, worse, they might grab a stick and try to kill it. I have witnessed drivers swerve to run over a snake crossing a road.

Another time when I was a kid, I was out riding my bike and I saw a friend of mine up ahead. We would sometimes go fishing to-gether.

As I was trying to catch up to him I saw him swerve at the last second and ride right over a garter snake that was sunning itself along the trail that led down to the creek.

He sped off while I stopped and got off my bike to look at he snake. Its back appeared broken but it was still alive.

I picked it up and sat un-der a tree looking at it, hop-ing it would somehow re-pair itself and I could return it to the wild. It curled itself up on the ground beside me and died.

It’s funny how a small incident like that can stay with you for the rest of your life. I have never forgot-ten it. At least it did not die alone.

OpiniOn

The GreaT OuTdOOrs

James Murray

Lessons learned about snakes

Twelve years ago the B.C. government broke its contract with public school teachers by removing class size and composition language from their col-lective agreement.

The B.C. Supreme Court ruled twice that this leg-islation violated teachers’ constitutional rights to negotiate working conditions.

The province has appealed, the third court deci-sion is expected this fall.

If the province loses again it could go to the Supreme Court of Canada.

That could take a year or two.Meantime, contract talks between the province

and teachers have broken down and public schools are closed, who knows for how long.

According to reports, the stumbling block may be the government’s attempt to scuttle the Appeal Court ruling by putting language in the proposed contract giving the province an escape clause (E80) for any future court decision on class size and composition.

In other words, Premier Clark & Co. want to be able to tear up the contract the BCTF agrees to in the current negotiations, thus scuttling the court deci-sion before it even happens.

So much for the legal system. It isn’t surprising the BCTF is balking, given its two previous wins in court.

Many suspect the province’s intent is to break the union and promote private schools.

B.C. has the highest rate of child poverty and the second lowest rate of per-student funding in Canada. Perhaps the premier believes a private school system would solve those problems.

Ms. Clark has several ways to end this dispute if she chooses.

If she truly believes families come first, she should do whatever she can ASAP to get the schools open.

Dropping E80 might be a good start.-Williams Lake Tribune

Province above court decision


VIEW POINT

In last week’s col-umn, Richard Rolke is exactly right; there was a crisis in education funding even before the teachers’ contract came due.

If it was unclear last week who held the bal-ance of power in the current labour dispute it is clear now.

With the two sides apparently not that far apart on many issues, who could argue that binding arbitration is not the best way to

get kids back in class again?

And yet the govern-ment refuses. Vaughn Palmer explains that since binding arbitra-tion gave the doctors a large increase that compelled Colin Han-sen to raise taxes to avoid deficit in 2002, the Liberals are gun-shy of binding arbitra-tion. But in that case the arbiter found the labour pressures of a shortage of doctors and a better pay scale

in Alberta necessitated the increases.

There are no similar labour pressures in this case. More Bachelor of Education gradu-ates come out of B.C. universities each year than there are jobs to fill, and given the pub-lic is strongly support-ive of the teachers, an arbitrated contract that meets both sides in the middle seems perfectly reasonable.

When the doctors’ arbitration led to tax

increases did economic growth in the province grind to a halt? Were there massive lay-offs?

Yet we know that many parents are giv-ing up hours at work right now and might even lose their jobs because their children have been out of school for three months and counting. How will the economy be affected in the future if the qual-ity of public education starts to show signifi-cant decline?

Schools, teachers and kids are all paying the price for the lack of education funding.

Binding arbitration has been the most con-crete proposal to date that the public can get behind to demand an end to this impasse.

If the government has to rearrange its pri-orities, or raise taxes, in order to find the money the public will understand.

Larissa Lutjen

Binding arbitration necessary

Time has come for an arena in the South ShuswapAn arena for South

Shuswap Area C?Why not? I for one

believe it is well past time.

Perhaps we have spent enough money on projects in other communities and on parks and trails?

There are upcoming meetings scheduled by the CSRD at 7 p.m., Sept. 16, 17 and 18 at the Sorrento, Eagle Bay and White Lake community halls to discuss parks and rec-reation.

I think it would be a good time to tell these

folks that perhaps we need to refocus our spending, keeping our tax dollars in our own communities for the benefits of the resi-dents.

Did you know $60,800 a year is fun-neled out of our com-munities to support the arena in Salmon Arm? And then consider how far that amount of money would have went to support a facil-ity of our own.

There needs to be more to an area than golf courses and hiking trails; most of which I

expect are used by the more affluent, over-30 segment of the popula-tion.

There are precious little facilities in our communities which will accommodate af-fordable winter sports for pre-schoolers, grade schoolers or the youth and young adults of our communities, let alone their parents or grandparents.

Anyone who goes

to the park on a cold winter day and sees how busy the outdoor rink is will easily un-derstand our need for a real arena.

What is needed is young folks with fami-lies to step up, take charge and begin the process. Perhaps you can start by attending one of these upcom-ing meetings and make your thoughts known.

Somebody make a

phone call, and take the bull by the horns. This no-hair would be happy to help out any-way I can.

South ShuSwapRegional district closes park talks

The Columbia Shus-wap Regional District has ended discussion on the possible pur-chase of Centennial Park – at least for now.

The regional district has previously had some negotiations with Shuswap Lake Estates Ltd., owner of the park that is used for many South Shuswap com-munity events.

The negotiations were “related to a po-tential purchase price for evaluation purposes on the 2690 Centen-nial Drive property, for consideration of the property for potential park use,” said a Sept. 10 CSRD news release that deemed the nego-tiations unsuccessful. “It is possible that a fu-ture regional board may wish to consider acqui-sition of the property for community use, but for the time being this matter is closed.”

Chief administrative officer Charles Hamil-ton said the board au-thorized staff to have discussions with Shus-

wap Lake Estates for price and suitability only.

“We had it appraised, hired a land agent to do preliminary discus-sions and exchanged correspondence with Shuswap Lake Estates regarding the possibil-ity of acquiring lands,” Hamilton said. “What became clear was there seems to be another ob-jective that involves the realignment of Blind Bay Road and then the creation of an area of potential parkland along the waterfront.”

Hamilton says what had begun as a discus-sion about Centen-nial Park became much more complex.

“We hadn’t contem-plated a road realign-ment so I went to the board with some of these concerns,” Ham-ilton says.

CSRD chair David Raven says the board met in camera in Au-gust and decided too many factors were coming into play and agreed to ask for a cool-ing-off period.

“The whole matter started off trying to do a

good thing and became complex and confus-ing for everybody, so the logical conclusion was to stop what we are doing and open the door for a simple nego-tiation process – if they want to proceed in the future.”

Raven said issues need to be dealt with one at a time, and ques-tions addressed about whether there is value for money.

“Being chair, I look for integrity of deci-sion and process, com-pliance with law and transparent good gov-ernment, rather than interfere with the actual decision making.”

Hamilton, mean-while, says he was somewhat surprised when Shuswap Lake Estates owners Jack and Terry Barker ar-rived at a public hear-ing on recreation in the South Shuswap Aug. 13 with a poster detail-ing plans for the wa-terfront park and road relocation and a request to present their plans to the audience of some 60 people.

Marcin Pachcin-

ski, CSRD’s Parks and Recreation team leader, says Jack Barker was given the opportunity to speak because the for-mat of the meeting was to obtain public input.

“CSRD parks staff see potential park value in Centennial Field as it is, because it is flat, situated close to many Blind Bay residences, already used for com-munity gatherings and has potential to ac-commodate park struc-tures,” says Pachcinski. “We feel the value is in the existing piece of land and where it is situated, so there is no need for road realign-ment.”

Asked to respond to CSRD’s decision to close discussion, Terry Barker said he was un-

aware of the decision, would have to look into the matter and had no comment at this time.

But people who have ideas about the park are welcome to express them at three Electoral Area C meetings sched-uled for next week.

“We’re holding rec-reational meetings ba-sically to get input from residents on current recreational uses and where they would like us to focus parks dol-lars in the future,” says Pachcinski.

Those meetings will be held at 7 p.m. at Sor-rento Memorial Hall on Tuesday, Sept. 16, Eagle Bay Community Hall on Sept. 17 and White Lake Commu-nity Hall on Sept. 18.

South Shuswap Health Services Society is sponsoring the estab-lishment of the Copper Island Seniors Resource Centre in Blind Bay, to be located in the for-mer Chamber of Com-merce/Tourism Infor-mation Center, with a planned opening the last week of September.

The society explains the need for the ser-vice became apparent through its involvement with the Better at Home program, which aims to provide non-medical assistance that will en-able seniors to stay in their own homes longer.

The goal co-ordinates well with the vision of the Copper Island Se-niors Resource Centre “to provide informa-tion, and co-ordination of services for seniors of the South Shuswap communities.”

If you would like to get involved or pro-vide suggestions, call George Landry at 250-804-3637 or Simon Brown at 250-675-2140.

Proposed services of the Copper Island Se-niors Resource Center include: seniors gro-cery shopping; seniors transportation; seniors’

computer tutoring; rea-sonably priced frozen meals for sale; pam-phlets on regional se-niors programs avail-able; friendly visits; assistance with income tax, and more.

The society is also continuing its physi-cian recruitment ef-forts, attending the Na-tional Rural Physicians Conference in March in Banff, Alta., where many physicians in their last year of studies showed interest in the potential for setting up a new practice in B.C.

The society invited Sicamous Medical

Clinic and the North Shuswap Health Soci-ety to share a booth and work on recruitment at the BC Rural Physicians conference in May in Penticton. The confer-ences provided several leads and the society is following up on them. Currently, three physi-cians have expressed

interest in establishing a medical clinic in Blind Bay. Discussions are ongoing without firm commitments, but with September 2015 as a possible target date. It will take community support during the start-up phase of the clinic in both volunteer hours and raising funds.

Survey seeks opinions for waste handlingThe Columbia Shus-

wap Regional District is conducting a review of its Regional Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP), last up-dated in 2009.

The review will iden-tify new initiatives for reduce, reuse, recycle and disposal programs for the next five years, as many of the 2009 recommendations have now been completed.

A review of new op-portunities and direc-tions will be conducted

to update the SWMP and to establish imple-mentation priorities.

It is important to note that the process relies on input from residents, business and other stakeholders residing within mem-ber municipalities and rural areas alike. The review will explore enhanced recycling op-portunities, including food waste and other waste diversion initia-tives, landfill and trans-fer station management

and public education. “Public participation

is absolutely essential to the success of this transparent process”, stresses Ben Van Nos-trand, CSRD environ-mental health services team leader.

For more informa-tion, as well as the opportunity to pro-vide input regarding this planning pro-cess through comple-tion of a survey, visit the CSRD website at www.csrd.bc.ca. Those

who complete the sur-vey will be entered into a draw for the chance to win a $250 Visa gift card.

Unknown costs plague trail plan

Armstrong’s trails committee has urged city council to get be-hind plans to create a recreation corridor on the former Canadian Pacific line from Spal-lumcheen to Sicamous.

“Everyone would love to have a trail but we’re waiting to see what the cost factor is with the government,”

said Paul Britton, a city councillor.

Mayor Chris Pieper admits challenges exist.

“Coming up with thousands or millions of dollars is not likely. Everyone would like to see a public corridor but no one has any money.”

The trails committee has been working with the Shuswap Trails Al-liance on the CP prop-erty.

“The STA is work-ing with leadership to determine strategic op-tions for both assem-bling enough financing for purchase and gre-enway development,” said Phil McIntyre-Paul, with the Shuswap Trails Alliance, in a let-ter.

McIntyre-Paul says there will be a meeting in September to work on strategy.

TEAM FUNDRAISING EVENTS

The Chase Post Office will be closing Saturdays, according to the Canadian Postmasters and Assistants Association.

Barb Lincoln, president of the union’s B.C. and Yukon Branch, said Canada Post is going ahead with a reduction of nine hours of service for the Chase office, against the wishes of the asso-ciation.

“We were very opposed to the closure,” she said, noting that the post office is well-used by Chase residents on Saturdays.

She said Saturday hours were left untouched at Sorrento, so why not Chase.

Four hours of the reduction will come from the Saturday closure and the rest by opening later on weekday mornings.

While no official announce-ment had been made by Canada

Post at press time, Lincoln said she expects the community will be given 30 days’ notice before the Saturday closures take place. She said the reduc-tion will mean the elimination of one part-time position, while the three full-time ones will re-main intact.

Lincoln said the union will likely file a grievance opposing the change.

ChaseSpawning touristn Federal Depart-ment of Fisheries officials say it is unpredictable but not uncommon for some salmon to stray, as this sockeye salmon that was spotted in Chase Creek did. This salmon is likely part of the late-sum-mer sockeye run to the Seymour River or Scotch Creek.

YOUR NEWSPAPERRECYCLE

Pucksters from the 100 Mile House Wran-glers, Kelowna Chiefs and Kamloops Storm descended on pictur-esque Chase to get a piece of early season exhibition hockey.

The host Chase Heat delivered a weekend full of cool ice action at Art Holding Memorial.

The Wranglers stayed overnight for a pair of tilts versus the Heat and took advan-tage of Little Shuswap Lake.

Five games were on tap for the thrifty price of $5 apiece, and many enjoyed the cool air and heated hockey ac-tion.

Friday, Sept. 5 saw the guest Wranglers take a 7-4 victory over a rookie-laden local crew. On Saturday the 6th, 100 Mile House and Kelowna played an edgy ‘mini’ game with

the Chiefs earning the victory.

In the afternoon, the Chiefs took on the Heat in a ‘mini’ game with the sides even at 1-1. The Heat followed up with another ‘mini’ versus the Wranglers, who took this contest 4-2.

Sunday at high noon saw arch foes

the Storm and Heat in a full game battle to a 3-3 draw.

All four teams watched lots of raw tal-ented rookies battle for spots on their rosters.

Regular season ac-tion in the KIJHL com-mences next weekend. The Heat hit the road for a pair of contests, Saturday the 13th in

the wine mecca of Osoyoos versus the Coyotes and Sunday afternoon versus the gringos of the Princ-eton Posse.

If you like it hot, the local rink is the place to be. The first home regular season game is Friday, Sept. 19 versus the Grand Forks Bor-derbruins.

Why Canadians increasingly embrace natural health products

Reduce foot injuries and run without pain

(NC) Statistics Canada estimates that as many as seven in 10 Canadians use natural health prod-ucts on a regular ba-sis. These same sta-tistics show a large number of us suffer from nutritional de-� ciencies because of an inadequate or inappropriate intake of food.

“Canadians are increasingly embrac-ing natural health products to maintain their health and well-being,” says Helen Long, president of

the Canadian Health Food Association (CHFA), an orga-nization that this year is celebrating its 50th anniversary as Canada’s larg-est trade association dedicated to natural health and organic products. “These products also help to effectively bridge the gap for those of us who cannot meet our nutritional needs from food alone.”

Many healthcare practitioners recom-mend natural health products for overall

health and wellness and to bridge nutri-ent gaps. “Health is a life-long journey that includes healthy foods, exercise and natural health prod-ucts and there is clear scienti� c evidence that these products work when taken as

part of an integrative approach to health,” adds Long.

Natural health products authorized for sale in Canada are bound by strict regulations and test-ing to ensure safety and ef� cacy. When shopping for your

supplements, always make sure to check the label and look for the eight-digit natu-ral product num-ber (NPN) on the label which is your con� rmation that the product you are buying has been re-viewed and approved by Health Canada.

K n ow l e d g e abl e staff in your natu-ral health food store can help you identify which products are right for you. More information is avail-able online at chfa.ca.

(NC) If you’re an avid recreational runner you know how frustrating it is when painful feet or lower limbs stop you from getting out for your cherished daily run. Although injuries often keep recreational run-ners from hitting the streets, foot experts say with proper care and training, many running injuries can be prevented.

“I’ve always loved getting out for a run,” says Kevin Carrington, a Ca-nadian certi� ed pe-dorthist. “However,

I’m � at footed so I suffered a number of injuries when I was younger. If I hadn’t been referred to a pe-dorthist when I was a teen, I wouldn’t be able to run today. Ironically, the refer-ral even impacted my career choice. I now advise many runners how to keep their feet healthy.”

The most common foot injuries Car-rington sees with pa-tients who run recre-ationally are plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis. These in-juries primarily result from doing too much

too soon and from chang-ing one’s foot strike pattern or footwear without allow-ing enough time to adapt. When it comes to running, C a r r i n g t o n says increasing your training volume by no more than 10 per cent a week is the best way to reduce the likelihood of overuse injuries.

In addition to following a well-planned training regimen with grad-

ual progression, you should do exercises to strengthen the muscles of your foot and ankle.

Most importantly, if you experience severe, recurrent or

persistent lower limb or foot injury, don’t delay treatment. Book a consultation with a certi� ed pe-dorthist. This pro-fessional will assess the biomechanics of your lower limbs, your gait and your running shoes and recommend a treat-ment plan that will have you back run-ning as quickly as possible.

More information on the prevention of recreational running injuries can be found at www.pedorthic.ca.www.newscanada.com

Shuswap Market News Friday, September 12, 2014 www.saobserver.net B9B8 www.saobserver.net Friday, September 12, 2014 Shuswap Market News

Early on the morning of Friday, May 2, the Cooke Creek bridge, on Mabel Lake Road, was taken out when tons of logs and debris came roaring down Cooke Creek, along with the weight of nine million gallons of water, caus-ing mass destruction.

Directly in its path lay the Kingfisher Inter-pretive Centre (KICS).

The centre is an integral part of the community, as well as a popular place for tourists.

The Kingfisher In-terpretive Centre as-sists more than 100,000 salmon from egg to fry, and releases them to their natural life cycle in the wild of the Shus-wap River well and strong. Community volunteers do most of

the work harvesting salmon eggs and main-taining the hatchery, but the centre also creates employment for several community members.

The centre is also a popular place for stu-dents in the region to learn about the salmon.

In the wake of the flood, the Kingfisher Interpretive Centre is desperately in need of

repairs. In order for the King-

fisher Interpretive Cen-tre to be restored, the trails must be restored, the berm needs to be re-established, water lines need to be repaired and the contents of the hatchery lab equipment must be replaced.

This equipment in-cludes: a television, of-fice supplies, desk, edu-

cational materials and a watershed model.

To help raise funds, a special Salmon Sensa-tion Dinner Fundraiser is planned for Saturday, Sept. 27 at the River-side Community Hall, 3784 Trinity Valley Road, Enderby.

Doors open at 5 p.m. with a cash bar. The salmon dinner will be-gin at 6 p.m. with a live

auction and entertain-ment to follow.

Tickets are $50 (in-cludes $25 tax receipt), and are available at Ashton Creek Store, Tony O’s Outfitter in Enderby and Bean Scene Coffee House in-Vernon.

Or buy tickets online at www.kingfishercen-tre.com/programsande-vents2.html.

Donations can also be made to www.king-fishercentre.com via Paypal or mail a cheque (payable to Kingfisher Interpretive Centre So-ciety) to 2550 Mabel Lk Rd., Enderby, BC V0E 1V5

Luke was raised in Haney, BC and spent his life there until he retired at 60. Luke and his wife Sharon then moved to Salmon Arm, BC where they lived for 21 years. This is where he dedicated summers to his amazing garden. He always supplied friends and family with great produce. He started working at the age of 15, logging with is Dad in Haney, and continued logging until he became a pile-driver for 23 years. He enjoyed being a mentor to the young pile-drivers and had a great time with all his pile-driver brothers.

“Goodbye, goodbye little darlin’”We would like to thank the staff at Bastion Place

for their kindness, compassion and dedication to their job. We know how much you like Luke and appreciated his smile.

WYNESS, EVELYN MAY1921 - 2014

Winifred (Win) Naylor passed away at Piccadilly Care Centre on September 6, 2014 in her 98th year.

She is survived by her two children, Bill and Steve (Jan) and her two g r a n d c h i l d r e n , Stephanie (Stasia) and Scott (Tiffanie). She is predeceased by her three siblings (Pat, Kelly, and Phil) and her husband Bill.

Win was born in 1916 in Medicine Hat, Alberta. By the age of eighteen, she had attended Normal School and was out teaching in one-room school houses, a job she did for five years before moving back to her home town.

During WWII, the Commonwealth Air Training Programme sent British airmen to Canada to learn to fly the planes that would eventually win the Battle of Britain. It was a at a dance held in a hangar that she met Bill who was an airframe mechanic. They soon fell in love, but before they could get married, Bill was posted back to England for the duration of the war. In January of 1946, Win set out for England travelling across Canada by train and then by ship to England. The ship made its way up the Manchester ship canal before docking. Waiting for her was her beloved fiancé Bill who climbed up a rope ladder on to the deck where they embraced. They were married in May of that year.

Bill Jr. was born in 1947 and in 1948, sensing that opportunities were better in Canada, they returned to Medicine Hat where Steve was born in 1950. Bill Sr.’s jobs took the family to Nelson and later to Castlegar where Win went back to teaching in 1963. Steve went on to university to become a teacher as well. He returned to Castlegar to teach for two years, the first of which was Win’s final year before retiring.

After that, Win and Bill travelled, moved to Victoria, and when grandchildren made their appearance, moved to Salmon Arm where Steve had gone in 1975. They enjoyed their granchildren immensely and became settled Salmon Arm residents. Both very good ballroom dancers, Win and Bill attended many functions and organized the music for afternoon dances at the local seniors centre, the 109. When Bill died in 2002, Win stayed in her condo for a few years then moved to Landers’ Lodge and finally to Piccadilly Care. She was pleased to see her two grandchildren happily married. Win passed away peacefully in her sleep after a long and productive life.

The family would like to thank Dr. Malinowski and the staff of Shuswap Lake Hospital, Landers’ Lodge and Piccadilly Care for attending to Win’s needs so well. A celebration of Win’s life will take place later in the fall.

Terrance Oliver “Terry” EGELY passed away peacefully at home in Chase, BC on 28 August 2014 at the age of 67 years.

He is lovingly remembered by his wife of 24 years, Nancy; daughter Erika (Fred) Ross of Barrie, Ontario; grandson, Taisen Colture; granddaughter, Tia Colture; sisters: Evelyn Egely and Lorraine Hermann and by many in-laws, friends, neighbours and customers.

Terry was an auto body technician by trade for most of his adult life. He had a great love and respect for the outdoors and loved to hunt and fish. He ranched in the Chase area from 1987 to 2001.

Kevin Bolen, Funeral Director

After a hard fought battle with Alzheimer’s disease, it is with feelings of both sadness and relief that we say good-bye to our beloved mother Geraldine Desireau. Her unconditional love and support was our greatest joy and strength. Her physical presence is gone, but the past and the future remain with us in traditions and lessons. Left to mourn her passing is her husband of 60 years Deane and her four children Deanna (Garth) Jackson, Janis (Bob) Semenoff, Sandra (Larry) Peatt and Ted (Anna) Desireau. In addition her five cherished grandchildren: Natasha (Christopher) Haubrich, Carly (Nathaniel) Sharpe, Nadeane Jackson, Casey Semenoff and Taylor Jackson. And two great grandchildren Beatrice Winter Sharpe and Eloise Haubrich. She was particularly fond of her three son-in-laws and told them numerous times to “go to your room” when they teased her. We will all remember her favourite saying “give me strength”.

She was born in Coronation Alberta and moved to Kamloops in her teen years with her parents Ted and Helen (pre-deceased) and brothers Glen (Ruth) Ross (Arlene) Mac (Louise) Jardine. During her schooling at St. Ann’s academy was proud of her typing trophy she won. Mom then went on to graduate from Kamloops Senior Secondary. From 1960 until 1970 along with our dad they built and ran Balmoral Store just outside Salmon Arm where she excelled in pumping gas and cleaning windshields. She was extremely fond of the many summers she spent at their cabin on Blind Bay with her family and friends.

She was one of the founding members of the Valleyview Figure Skating Club and volunteered on their executive for many years. Her other volunteer work included her yearly canvassing for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and organizing numerous “Don Busch” hockey schools. She enjoyed radish sandwiches shared with neighbours, gardening, and numerous cups of black coffee. Mom loved riding her bike on Valleyview Drive and always found the time to stop and chat with someone along the way. She was one of those rare people who loved her jobs and her favourite, by far, was her years working in the Drug & Stationary department of Woodward’s. She enjoyed staying in touch with several of her Woodward’s buddies especially Joan Epp, Winnie Holomay and Margo Woloski. One of her greatest heroes was Terry Fox, she was also a passionate Vancouver Canucks fan who felt that every year would be “the year”.

She spent the final two years residing at the Kamloops Seniors Village. Special thanks to Dr. Schumacher her long time doctor whom she adored!! Many thanks also to Don and Sheila Boogie and Jack and Heather Aucoin for being very special neighbours. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Terry Fox Foundation. At her request there will be no service.

ISAAC, SUSAN CAROL (née Bendicson)November 5, 1955 – September 3, 2014On Monday,

September 1, 2014 Dave passed away after a long, brave, courageous battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Linda Belway, his brother Fred Belway (Mildred), his four children; Karen (Grant), Barb, Debbie (Kevin) & David Jr (Crystal), eight grandchildren; Ryan, Chelsey, Eve, Tate, Maya, Callie, Justin and Kayla, his great-grandson; Tristan, and many nieces and nephews.

Dave was many things to many people. The middle child of five sons, Dave grew up fast withan unconventional childhood full of mischief and a strong bond between brothers. He was a loyal husband with an incredible work ethic, alwaysproviding for his family. To his children he was apillar; the person who “no matter what” you would call if you locked your keys in your car, ran out ofgas, started a project or renovation, or just needed any kind of sound advice regarding life, finances, ormajor decision-making. He was always the voice ofreason in any conversation. He was a good friend tomany. He was a great organizer spending countless hours on various community committees, planning family get-togethers, camping adventures, andarranging fishing trips with the boys. Dave brought people together and got things done. He taught his girls how to shoot guns and his son how to “curl like a Belway”.

Dave wore many hats in his time; mechanic, autobody repair, business owner, salesman, real estate agent and property developer. He was anavid sportsman and excelled in baseball, curling,golf and sports fishing. The outdoors was his refuge, whether it be early morning coffee on the deck withhis wife, Linda, lining up on the first tee, reeling inthe “big one”, or simply watching the sunrise ona remote fishing lake. Dave lived for those quietmoments, and sought them out whenever hecould. He was always eager to share those times with the people he loved, and if you woke up earlyenough to join him you would see a side of Davethat was truly at peace. He was creative and tied professional quality flies for fishing. He had a greenthumb and grew beefsteak tomatoes that rivalledany in town, and his homemade horseradishknocked your socks off (ask the grandkids!). It may surprise some, but Dave took great pleasure inmaintaining his own backyard bird sanctuary. Hecould name off all the migrating species and pointout his “regulars” whom he had given names.

Dave was a fierce competitor, always ready for adventure and a challenge. As many of his friendscan attest, a small fortune has been won and lost on the course/ice, or after at the card table...thisalso includes Monopoly with the grandkids!

Perhaps what people will remember most aboutDave, however, is his sense of humor; quick, sharp,and slightly twisted, no one was safe from it, we were all touched by it, and we all loved him for it.

Dave will be greatly missed.“Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.

Comes into us at midnight very clean. It’s perfect when it arrives and puts itself in our hands. It hopeswe’ve learned something from yesterday.”

Please join us for a celebration of life honoringDave at the Salmon Arm Curling Club (691-28th St. NE, Salmon Arm, BC) on Saturday, September 13, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made towards the Salmon Arm Junior Curling Program in Dave’s name.

Online condolences may be sent through Dave’sobituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com.

50th

Birthday!

What does Rotary do exactly?Around the world and around

the corner, the 1.2 million men and women of Rotary get involved in their communities, connect with other professionals, share their time and experience with young people, support global causes, such as eradicating polio, and use their skills to help others.

There’s something that all Rotary club members have in common: We take action. As community volunteers, we reach out to neighbours in need. We build, support, and organize. We save lives. We work locally and globally.

Who are Rotarians?Whether you’re a veteran volunteer

or new to community service, Rotary is looking for people like you.

What Rotarians get out of Rotary depends largely on what they put into it. Many membership requirements are designed to help club members more fully participate in and enjoy their Rotary experience.

Attending weekly club meetings allows members to enjoy fellowship, enrich their professional and personal knowledge, and meet other leaders in their community.

The Avenues of ServiceThe Avenues of Service are

Rotary’s philosophical cornerstone and the foundation on which club activity is based:

• Club Service focuses on strengthening fellowship and ensuring the club’s effective functioning.

• Vocational Service encourages Rotarians to serve others through their vocations and to practice high ethical standards.

• Community Service covers the projects and activities the club undertakes to improve life in its community.

• International Service encompasses actions taken to expand Rotary’s humanitarian reach around the globe and to promote world understanding and peace.

• New Generations Service recognizes the positive change implemented by youth and young adults through leadership development activities, service projects, and exchange programs.
