Christina Lake residents Ronald (74) and Jacqueline Jean Legare (71) are dead after a tubing accident on Cascade Falls, along the Kettle River on Saturday afternoon. A resident of Scotland, 50, who was visiting the area, is still missing and presumed dead but his name has not yet been released by the B.C. Coroners Service. “Our air search of the river, right down to the U.S. border, turned up negatively. I ran it with the pilot about five times and (the body) is definitely not in the river,” Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison told the Grand Forks Gazette on Monday. “We’re quite convinced at this point that the body’s trapped in the falls. Our experience in the past has been that the bodies resurface after a couple of days or anywhere up to a week. We’ll be maintaining a vigil on the falls to see if, in fact, that does occur and we’ll recover the body,” he said. Some of the Scottish resident’s next of kin have been notified, according to the coroners service. The three were part of a group that was tubing in the area on Saturday and were witnessed being swept into Cascade Canyon. “At 4:51 p.m. (July 28) our OCC (operational
communications centre) in Kelowna received a emergency call from emergency health services,” Harrison said on Saturday night. “Apparently a party of 13 people were tubing on the Kettle River when they were caught up in the current under the Trestle Bridge and three of the party of 13 went over the Cascade Falls.” Harrison said that initially on Saturday, crews located Ronald Legare’s body and later in the evening, found the body of his wife in a pool between the two falls – she was wearing a lifejacket. Her body could not be recovered Saturday night due to darkness but it was extricated on Sunday with the use of a search and rescue helicopter, Harrison said. The aforementioned Grand Forks Search and Rescue team and the Christina Lake Fire Department assisted police with the search and according to Barry Savitskoff, Grand Forks Search and Rescue manager, additional help was called in on Sunday from the RCMP and the Provincial Emergency Program (PEP) from other areas of the province – Nelson, Columbia Valley and Castlegar. Savitskoff said that on Sunday, PEP swift water techs patrolled the water while two teams patrolled the canyon near the falls.

NEWS ❚ POLICE REPORT
Crash on Granby KARL YU Gazette Editor
Accident after driver fails to yield On July 27 at 10:06 a.m., there was a report of a motor vehicle accident between a grey 2004 Honda Accord and a 2010 white Subaru at the intersection of Highway 3 and Granby Road. “Apparently, a local resident pulled out from that intersection and smashed into another vehicle that was heading west bound on Highway 3. It caused significant damage to both vehicles as a result,” explained Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. He said that a 40-year-old female from Grand Forks (driving the Accord) was charged with failing to yield the right of way. Fortunately there were no injuries. Eighteen-year-old Nelson driver learns a hard lesson At 11:58 p.m. on July 21, a grey 2000 Volkswagen Golf was seen swerving on Highway 3 through Christina Lake. RCMP conducted a roadside check stop and the lone occupant of the vehicle was identified – he was an 18-year-old male from Nelson, B.C. “The distinct odour of liquor was emanating from the driver’s breath, as a result he was given a roadside screening device check and he ended up failing the test,” said Harrison. “As a result, his vehicle was impounded for 30 days and he received a 90-day automatic driving prohibition.” Harrison said the driver learned a hard lesson in regards to impaired driving and it was fortunate he wasn’t involved in an accident. Copper wire theft, again On July 18 at 10:10 a.m., police received a report of copper wire theft from a residence/business on Kenmore Road. “We’re probably looking at about $300 to $400 worth of copper wires stolen from that location and of particular note was a very large, heavy-duty extension cord with a quad metal receptacle at both ends. It was yellow in colour, and that was one of the items taken along with a bunch of scrap wire and armoured cable,” Harrison said. There were no witnesses but anyone with information can contact Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288.

Harrison said an RCMP helicopter was also used Sunday morning to patrol the river. A witness at the scene reported seeing people recovering a body from the water and performing CPR earlier Saturday afternoon but Savitskoff said the stories about the events leading up to, and directly after the tragedy, are constantly changing. “We have so many stories. It changes every hour around here,” he said. “The only thing we can see are some poor choices were made,” Christina Lake Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones explained. “When you’re talking about those falls, it’s just not something to play with.” The BC Coroners Service continues to investigate the deaths.

City officials were called to the slag pile property on July 12 to investigate two large sink holes and other forming crevices. CASSANDRA CHIN PHOTO
CITY OF GRAND FORKS Submitted
As requested by the City of Grand Forks, Golder Associates Ltd. from Kelowna, a consulting firm specializing in environmental-related areas, conducted a field reconnaissance of reported sinkholes that developed on the Granby Mine Slag Piles located at the north end of Grand Forks. While the slag pile is mined by Pacific Abrasives & Supply Inc. under an exclusive contract, the City of Grand Forks is the owner of the slag pile properties. City officials were called to the property on July 12 to investigate two large sink holes and other forming crevices, with employees of Pacific Abrasives. Monitoring of these depressions continued over the weekend, with noticeable increases in size. On July 16, city staff enlisted the services of a geotechnical engineer to determine the potential risk of the situation and to professionally determine the cause of the depressions. An overview of the engineer’s report was received by council at its regular meeting on July 23. In his report, geotechnical engineer Andrew Van Dyk stated that, “The size of the depression at the ground surface due to the soil pipe collaps-
es are expected to be proportional to the subsurface cavity that existed prior to the collapse. “Based on the size of the collapse, it is expected that they developed over several years and brought to a critical state by the increased groundwater seepage resulting from the high precipitation received this year.” He referenced the fact that part of the Pacific Abrasives operation includes a settling pond, which is contained by a 3.048-metre (10-foot) berm along the west, south and north sides. He added, “Soil pipes develop over time and remain undetected for several years. At least four seepage areas into the pond were reportedly observed during the pond construction. “It is reasonable to suspect that other cavities may exist in the area.” Following the recommendations of the geotechnical report, council authorized city staff to proceed with a geophysical survey followed by a subsurface borehole investigation in order to determine if there are cavities beneath Granby Road. The cost of the survey is estimated to be a maximum of $10,000, which will be funded from the Slag Sales Revenue Reserve Fund.

❚ Our View
Knowing the risks For the second consecutive week, tragedy hit the Grand Forks/Christina Lake area. A week after the death that occurred at Pines Bible Camp as a result of the July 20 wind storm, three people were involved in a tubing accident in the Cascade Falls area of Christina Lake on July 28. The bodies of two Christina Lake residents – Ronald and Jacqueline Legare – have been recovered, while a 50-year-old from Scotland is still missing and is presumed dead. While there are signs on the trails near the falls warning of danger, there are no signs or markers on the river warning that the falls are up ahead and some have wondered aloud if there should be signage. Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Area C Director Grace McGregor said that even if signs were posted all over the river, they would likely be ignored. She said that it is crucial that people understand the risks, of tubing in this case, and that holds true not just for tubing but other aspects of life; she said that the Legares would’ve been aware of the risks. Kayakers normally scout the area that they are about to travel down and know where they should get out of the river. When planning a driving trip, it pays to look up online if there are any construction stops or accidents or delays along your route. In the case of tubing, it pays not only to know the area that you will travel but know the conditions too. Due to late snow melt and heavy rains in the last few months the water levels are higher than normal, with some people estimating that the level of the river near Cascade Falls to be approximately 1.5 to 1.8 metres higher than normal. The river can flow faster when that occurs. Just because an area that people tubed last year seemed calm, there is no guarantee that it will be calm this year. Know the risks, as they say

Living without power or technology Power was restored to most of local rural areas fairly quickly after the July 20 wind storm. FortisBC said that power to Christina Lake was restored by the afternoon of July 21 and residents of the North Fork Road, Granby Road and other affected areas were up and running by July 23, although some had electricity back by July 22. Nevertheless, it must’ve seemed like an eternity for people who lost power. It wasn’t exactly like the reality TV series Survivor, where contestants are dropped off at a faraway island without the benefits of technology and modern conveniences, but people likely had to live in a manner more primitive than they were used to. No power for refrigerators, computers or television. Things that are usually taken for granted – using outlets to power and charge cellphones

and laptop computers, the simple flicking of a switch to light a room, even the house lights that illuminated areas like North Fork Road and other rural roads were gone. With no TV or Internet, people likely had to read or watch DVDs on laptops and if they did read, it had to be done by flashlight or candlelight. People who had the benefit of generators could continue to run fridges but those without may have lost food as not everyone has a generator. Some people may have had to conserve water with the use of bottled water. I, like many others, found
myself flipping switches to lights that didn’t work – it seems like a reflex to turn the lights on when entering a dark room. I had to charge my electrical equipment at the office and I would go to bed early as it seemed a lot easier to fall asleep in the dark – no latenight talk shows or night-time news. Showering had to be done with the assistance of a flashlight hung from the bathroom mirror and it seemed a little strange to look out my window and see darkness, save for a little light from the night sky. But as mentioned, power returned by the 23 and I, and others in the area, were free to stare at my computer screen while the TV was on. We were free to leave the sink running and leave the lights on, just like we had done before the wind storm hit on July 20, 2012.

LETTERS ❚ AIR QUALITY
What to monitor Editor: Re: Andrews to monitor air quality (article, June 20 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette) Gazette) The pollution in Grand Forks that is being measure by the student summer project is nasty stuff. Science is catching up with polluters and proving as much. Particulate matter is working its way from the lungs into internal organs, adding to the toxic load our children are getting from food, cosmetics, household cleaning supplies, lawn care products and other wonderful household chemicals. However, there seems to be confusion about the exact terms of reference for the Grand Forks project. Simply put, we need to know the amount of pollution over a period of time at important areas where we live and play. This project could be a significant step toward documenting that. For example, what is the pollution at the BMX track when our kids race on Wednesday evenings, over a whole summer? Or the Tot Lot in City Park, where mothers take the kids in the morning for some “fresh air,” and grandma walks her dog? Or the Farmers’ Market where we gather to buy organic food at Gyro Park? How about Valley Heights, where industry’s own studies predicted an increased dose from the new smoke stack, or at the community gardens in Ruckle, long a traditionally polluted area? Perhaps we should know more about the intersection of Boundary Drive and Central Avenue, where two of our schools are located amid thousands of trucks and cars, that stop, idle and accelerate away from traffic lights. Does the air quality improve as you move away from the road? This is the kind of information that we need know, and that I hope this study produces. Robert Chornenki, Grand Forks
❚ WIND STORM
Thank you to helpers Editor: After the storm of July 20, there was a tremendous effort by FortisBC, Telus, etc. to get services back in the community. I’m sure that I speak for most of the area in offering a huge “thank you” to all that made the extra effort and put in all
the overtime to get everything back to the way it was. I would also like to praise the enormous effort made by an employee of Shaw Cable, Bob Gillespie. He was called mid-afternoon on Saturday (July 21) to try to get our cable back into operation. He arrived at the main cable box, found that there was no power, and when he realized that this was also why no one in the area had house water or irrigation, he took it upon himself to track down a Fortis employee to get the power back on. Both of these men worked until after 11 p.m. and finally got our water and cable working. Bob, again, thank you for going way above and beyond the call of duty! Glennis Hagel, Grand Forks *** Editor: Thank you to all clean up crews and FortisBC crews for the hard and dangerous work after the storm. Truly, thank you. Also to the big nurseries blowing water all over during the winds. Maybe it is time for a little respect for our resources. Turn it off when the winds are blowing; it is hardly landing on your trees anyway. Angelica Herlihy, Grand Forks
❚ PINES BIBLE CAMP
Fehr memorial Editor: Such a sad, sad incident at the Pines Bible Camp. I’m sure that all former citizens of Grand Forks, especially those who attended or whose children attended the Pines mourn with the family and friends of Richard. The Pines is held in warm memories by so many of us! May I respectfully suggest that the board of directors give serious consideration to renaming the camp in perpetual memory of Richard: something like “The Richard (Rick) Fehr Memorial Bible Camp” on a sign commemorating his life and a side plaque explaining the event would honor him in perpetuity. Thank you for passing this on to your community! Harold K. Swanson, Abbotsford, B.C.
❚ BORDER GUARDS
Don’t typecast Editor: Re: Dealing with the bad eggs (letter, July 18 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette) Gazette)
❚ OPINION
I have read two letters in the Grand Forks Gazette recently regarding our border guards, which have been very negative in content. I cross the border on a weekly basis at the Danville crossing to pick up my mail at the U.S. Post Office. A few times a year, I cross at Cascade. At all times, I have found the border guards, on both the Canadian and American sides, to be courteous, efficient and respectful. I am grateful to have the privilege of being able to enter our neighbouring country quite easily and if there is a line up because of searches, I know that they are taking care of all of us. I have nothing but respect for these men and women who deal with the public in all its aspects day in and day out, never knowing when a dangerous situation can occur. My thanks to all the border guards for a job well done. Doreen Sorensen, Grand Forks
❚ FORESTRY
Interfor not to blame Editor: I have spent most of my life working and recreating in the great outdoors. I learned at an early age to appreciate and respect the mountains, streams and lakes British Columbia has to offer. This is the main reason that I went to school to pursue a career in forestry. As woods supervisor for Interfor in Grand Forks, part of my job is to make sure that loggers follow the plans and have a soft footprint on the environment. I inspect the cut blocks when the loggers are done and I never find any garbage. However, I’ve recently noticed that some people from the general public are doing exactly this. I have found household garbage left on newly constructed logging roads, in our cut blocks, in tree plantations or next to an area where someone has been cutting firewood. These incidents get reported to government officials and these individuals will be dealt with if they are caught. It’s always a good idea to take note of licence plates and the make, model and colour of a vehicle if you suspect that illegal dumping has occurred. Hopefully, by bringing this issue to everyone’s attention, we can all be a little more watchful and we can work together to keep our forests and waterways clean and pristine for use and our children to enjoy for many years to come. Aaron Gunther, RFT Woods Supervisor, Interfor
Distinguishing between rural Grand Forks and city I would like to take this opportunity to express my sorrow to the Fehr family for the loss of their son and the damages incurred by IRENE many residents of the area PEREPOLKIN due to the July 20 wind storm. The force and swiftness, with which Mother Nature can act is almost beyond the mind being able to comprehend. Over the years, it is becoming more and more evident to rural directors that their role in local politics is misunderstood and under-rated. It seems an automatic reaction to contact the mayor of an area with concerns before thinking, “Wait a minute, I do not reside in or this is not a concern in the city limits but I am in the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) area.” It has been noted time and again that these calls are not re-directed to the director of the area either. Also confusing to some is where these boundaries actually are. With the boundaries being different for local, provincial and federal representatives, this adds to the confusion. Each level of government also has different policies on how they operate. Some have funds accessible at a moment’s notice while others are run through specific service funds. As a perfect example, recently with requests to reduce or excuse fees at the landfill for fallen trees, where it would have to come before the board of the entire regional district at a monthly meeting, Grand Forks city council passed a motion at a meeting and was able to obtain funds at a moment’s notice. A rural director has a huge role to play in that they act as both mayor and council for their area. They do have an advisory committee they appoint, but their role is to advise on planning applications. They can also make the director aware of concerns, however. An RDKB area director needs to know where to direct concerns brought to them. They need to be familiar with how their policies and procedures pertain to a particular subject and who to contact for an answer, just to name some of our roles. As we attend workshops, conferences etc. on a higher level, we see more and more the disconnect toward the regional district level of government. References are made toward municipalities and do not always fit the mould of the regional areas. My favourite saying is Rural BC is going to pot … and not the kind you smoke, but it is evident to all who take to the major highways in our area that it is just another example of funding stopping at the Okanagan for projects. Beyond that B.C. does not seem to matter. Many of the initiatives that come forward do not fit the regional level. It has become our mantra at the elected area director sessions to be recognized on the same level as municipal elected officials are. I hope this will assist our constituents when needing an answer or having a concern to better understand who to contact. RDKB Area D encompasses the rural area surrounding the City of Grand Forks to Wilgress Lake west and to the edge of Billings east and north to Burton. You can contact me, Irene Perepolkin at 250-442-3817. Area C (Billings to Paulson Bridge) residents can call Grace McGregor at 250-447-7118. If in doubt call the RDKB toll free at 1-800-355-7352. – Irene Perepolkin is RDKB Area D director

❚ TERRY FOX RUN
Organizer needed for Terry Fox Run Submitted
Courage, ambition, and spirit are just a few characteristics that Terry Fox possessed and selflessly devoted towards his ultimate goal – to outrun cancer. “I’m going to do my very best. I’ll fight. I promise I won’t give up,” stated Terry after running for 143 days and 5,373 kilometres across Canada during his Marathon of Hope to help find a cure. Communities all across Canada will be participating in “The Run” this year, however, the Boundary might not take part in Terry’s tradition if the community cannot find a run organizer for this year. Keep the legacy and passion alive and become a part of the annual Terry Fox Run to ensure that Terry’s dream continues in your community. Uphold the motivation in finding a cure for can-
cer and continue the Terry Fox run in Boundary. “It would be such a shame for the people of Boundary to miss out on an opportunity to keep Terry’s legacy alive, as every community, no matter how big or small can make a huge impact, just as Terry learned when a small town of 10,000 people raised over $10,000”, says Donna White, provincial director for the Terry Fox Foundation BC & Yukon. “The Terry Fox Foundation funds research in all kinds of cancer, believing as Terry did, that we need to conquer this disease once and for all.” With the help from people all across the world, money raised in Terry’s name has made The Terry Fox Foundation a national investor in cancer research. “When I started this run, I said that if we all gave one dollar, we’d have $24
million for cancer research, and I don’t care, man, there’s no reason that isn’t possible,” stated Terry. Since the Marathon of Hope in 1980, The Terry Fox Foundation has raised over $600 million and has helped to reshape Canada and cancer research. The foundation proudly donates 84¢ of every dollar donated to cancer research in Terry’s name. In order to continue doing so, volunteer run organizers are extremely important for their community’s involvement. The Terry Fox Foundation is looking for a motivated individual to take on the role as the run organizer for Boundary’s Terry Fox run on Sunday Sept. 16. If you are interested, please contact Donna White at the Terry Fox Foundation by email at bcyukon@terryfoxrun.org or by phone at 1-888-836-9786.

JULY 20 WIND STORM
Pines Bible Camp holds healing session KARL YU Gazette Editor
In the aftermath of the wind storm that hit Grand Forks on July 20, there was a healing session for the public and campers at Pines Bible Camp on July 24. While there was damage throughout Grand Forks and Christina Lake, the camp was hardest hit, as not only was there damage but 11-year-old camper Richard Fehr lost his life as well after a tree fell on his cabin. “We’ve invited all of the campers and staff and families of campers and any people from the community who (wanted) to come here and take a look at happened here to be able to offer them a time to process the event and bring some closure and offer some respect to the life that was lost here and pray and give our well-wishes to the
family,” explained Pines Executive Director Gene Krahn. Although it was hard to gauge exactly how many people showed up to the site off of North Forks Road, Krahn estimated that 100 people passed through. One of the attendees was camp staff member Travis Hildebrandt, who said it was strange being back on site. “We’ve been back up here a couple of times but every time coming up, the devastation and the destruction up here is just as bad or worse than I remember,” Hildebrandt explained. “There are some things, when you think about it, you remember it a certain way and it’s not as bad when you see pictures but none of the pictures have really done it justice, that I’ve seen on Facebook.” Still, Hildebrandt thought the healing session was a form of therapy. “It definitely helps the healing process. After going
through that, you kind of wonder if that actually happened and it’s been helpful for the campers and the staff to be up here and have a chance to see what actually happened up here and get some peace about it and closure,” he went on to say. Krahn said Pines Bible Camp would be closed for the rest of the season but hopes to be open next year. “We’ve got a lot of work ahead of us here and right now we’re still doing some assessments,” said Krahn, adding that the Mennonite Disaster Service would be taking a look at the site and seeing how it could help – Pines is part of the B.C. Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches. “We just feel really blessed by all this. God is good and he’s going to help us rebuild this place so we can have summer camps for kids really soon,” Krahn went on to say.
After the tragedy that occurred during the July 20 wind storm at Pines Bible Camp, a healing session was held at the campgrounds on July 24.

JULY 20 WIND STORM
Wind storm leads to insurance claims KARL YU Gazette Editor
There were many insurance claims in the aftermath of the July 20 wind storm that swept through Grand Forks
CHRIS HAMMETT PHOTO
There have been insurance-related questions in light of the wind storm that hit Grand Forks and Scott Moorey, RHC Insurance Brokers Ltd. GM of insurance operations, talked to the Grand Forks Gazette about some. While it’s difficult for Moorey to comment on specific cases of wind storm-related damage, he was able to speak in generalities. “Generally speaking (insurance) will cover to remove a tree from the dwelling or building but if the trees are down in the yard, insurance does not cover that due to wind storm,” he said, adding that if a vehicle hit a tree and knocked a tree over, insurance would pay to remove the tree, generally speaking. “Generally, if a tree lands on a dwelling, the roof damage is covered. If shingles are blown off during a wind storm, insurance generally will cover the replacement of those shingles and or that section of roof. If the branches go through the dwelling in any shape or form, break glass, break siding, it’s the replacement or repair of that
damage that the tree has caused,” he said. There are exceptions to the rule but Moorey said they are not many in number. He also said that claims can be made for food that was spoiled to due power outages. “There can be food freezer claims with respect to power outage and generally they’re picked up under the house insurance, out of the contents, subject to your deductible of course,” Moorey said. “It would be part of the wind storm damage claim if you had other trees down or other damage on the property due to the wind storm.” Moorey is in Grand Forks for vacation relief at the Grand Forks office and even had first-hand experience of the wind storm. “I was part of the storm; I was camping at Christina Lake. The storm hit us and branches started hitting our vehicle and RV, so basically we packed up and headed home to Castlegar. Our after hours claims emergency service kicked in and my cellphone started ringing and I started fielding calls,” Moorey said, adding that the Grand Forks office opened on July 21 and it took about 35 calls and another 10 to 20 last week.

The North Fork Road area of Grand Forks was one of the areas hardest hit in the July 20 wind storm and while resident Chris Moslin’s residence suffered some damage, it wasn’t too bad considering. “I was watching my deck umbrellas go over,” Moslin said. “I’ve got the weather app on my iPhone and everything and I think there was a severe thunderstorm warning but nobody told me there was going to be winds of 100 km/hr.” He said he watched his umbrellas turn inside out and tumble across the lawn and end up in the pool but he considers himself lucky. “We dodged a bullet. The power lines in the lower North Fork were just snapped. That whole infrastructure was just shattered,” Moslin said, adding he was impressed with how the new poles and lines were put back up. “It’s taken about a week but it’s looking pretty good and I finally got Shaw Internet (on July 26). That was the last thing,” he said with a laugh. Moslin is president of the Grand Forks Community Trails Society and while there is the per-
CHRIS MOSLIN
ception that the society and the Grand Forks ATV Club don’t get along, he says that the two groups did some work to clean up some of the trails. “A group of ATVers as well as trail society members cleared windfalls and a couple of leaning trees,” Moslin said. “First, I got my own property freed of some of the trees that fell and then we started working on the trail and together with all the landowners and the club members – both the trails society and the ATV club.”

Smith grateful to fire dept. KARL YU Gazette Editor
A woman in Grand Forks is grateful to Grand Forks Fire Rescue for checking up on her during the recent wind storm. Norma Smith witnessed the wind storm on July 20 and was relived to hear a knock on her door and see firemen asking if she was OK. She’s been to New Orleans twice in the last year and has seen the damage that can be caused in a storm or in that case 2005’s Hurricane Katrina. “I’ve seen all the devastation and read many books on it and I think, ‘Wow, I felt something about that,’” she explains. “Here we are in this storm and the fire
department are here; how comforting! It was very, very comforting to know that we do have people that care – only in a small town though, does this happen.” She said the fire department specifically stopped by to check up on her and isn’t sure if it was Fire Chief Dale Heriot’s doing, as he is the only person on the department she knows. Smith said that in 2011, when the Kettle and Granby Rivers rose to near flood levels, the department once again stopped by to tell her that she could get sand bags. “They just said, ‘Yes, we can see that you get your sand and get a group of people sand-bagging,’” she said. Fortunately the river didn’t rise high enough to flood her house.

A local Grand Forks Credit Union (GFCU) member was one of six lucky Canadian credit union members who will be heading out to sea in style. CUETS Financial announced six regional grand prize winners of the CHOICE REWARDS Choose Your Cruise Contest. Whether it’s an adventure in the far north, relaxation in the Caribbean, or family fun in the sun, the contest is making a dream cruise happen for Anne Palmer of Grand Forks. Mrs. Palmer will receive a cruise package voucher of up to $5,000 toward the themed cruise of her choice – either an explorer cruise to Alaska, a relaxing cruise to the Bahamas, or a Carnival family cruise to the Mexican Riviera. “We are thrilled that a local credit union member is one of the national winners,� said Mark Grimm, manager, member solutions, GFCU. “Our CUETS partner offers a number of credit cards to meet the needs of our members. The CUETS Platinum MasterCard credit card was just ranked third in the Top Travel Points Credit Card (with annual fee) category.� Between Oct. 1 and Nov. 31 of 2011, credit union members across Canada who applied and were approved for a new CHOICE REWARDS MasterCard credit card or GLOBAL PAYMENT MasterCard card product were automatically entered into the draw. Regional grand prize winners are also being empowered to give back to the world, and water, around them. Staying true to the aquatic theme, a $2,500 donation made in the name of each winner will be made to the non-profit marine conservation organization of their choice, to help preserve and protect oceans and waterways for future generations. Mrs. Palmer chose the Sea Shepherd Society as her maritime charity of choice.

Administrative Skills Training TRAIL CAMPUS: SEPTEMBER 5, 2012 – MARCH 1, 2013 NELSON CAMPUS: JANUARY 14 – JUNE 28, 2013 This certificate program will run for 24 weeks, 27.5 hours per week. Students will develop knowledge and skills in office proficiency, interpersonal communication, keyboarding, basic business math, MS Office (Word, Excel), internet usage, office technology, records management, communications and creation of business documents.

After a successful first season in seven different communities, the Kootenays’ Best Singer contest kicks off its second season right here in Grand Forks on Tuesday, Aug. 28 at the Grand Forks Secondary School auditorium. Grand Forks is one of eight stops along the trail for the 2012-13 Kootenay-wide search for singing talent, and will be the first stop for this season. The first Grand Forks’ Best Singer contest was held last October, in front of a very enthusiastic crowd, with Cecilie Regenberg emerging from a talented field as Grand Forks’ best singer for 2011. One thing is for certain. There will be a new champion this year as Cecilie and her family have moved out of the country. This year’s Grand Forks’ Best Singer contest will be held the day before the opening games of the Grand Forks International (GFI) baseball tournament. An added perk for the winner of the contest this year, is that they will have the privilege of singing the national anthem at the opening ceremonies for GFI on Thursday, Aug. 30. Auditions for this year’s contest will again be held at the Gospel Chapel in its choir room. The dates for auditions are Aug. 8 and 15 (both Wednesdays) from 4 to 8 p.m. both days. Auditions are open to all ages, and contestants from last year are welcome to try out again. People auditioning can bring a music track, an instrument, or sing to one of the tens of thou-

sands of karaoke tracks that event producer Vern Gorham will have with him. Gorham encourages those who wish to audition to register on his website at www.kootenaysbestsinger.com. A small change to the contest this year is that only 16 singers will advance from the auditions to the best singer contest on Aug. 28. Last year, 20 singers advanced, but contest organizer Vern Gorham felt that the contest was running long at times, and thus decided to shorten the field a bit. On the night of the contest, judges will be brought in from out of town, just like last year, to judge the 16 singers. The Top-4 singers will have the opportunity to sing a second song the after all 16 singers have sung their first song, with the Top-2 singers earning a small cash prize, and the opportunity to represent Grand Forks at the Kootenays’ Best Singer Contest to be held in June 2013 in Cranbrook. When asked about the contest Gorham remarked, “Its a really fun night to celebrate the tremendous local talent here in Grand Forks! Part of the judges scoring is based on crowd reaction, come on out and support your favorite singer!” Tickets will be on sale at Animal Instinctz, 162 72nd Ave. in Grand Forks. Ticket prices are $8 for children, students and seniors, and $10 for adults, when purchased in advance. All tickets at the door, if there are any available will be $10 per ticket. For more information, please go to the official contest website at www.kootenaysbestsinger.com, or contact contest producer Vern Gorham by email at verngorham@telus.net, or by phone at 250-428-0305.

❚ HEALTHY EATING
Group says raw food healthy CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter
Clive Langton, a volunteer director of Raw Food Society of BC (RawBC), stopped by Grand Forks as a part of his tour across British Columbia’s Southern Interior on July 9.
CASSANDRA CHIN PHOTO
A discussion about healthy foods took place during a presentation on eating raw food at the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary meeting room in Grand Forks on July 9. Clive Langton, a volunteer director of Raw Food Society of BC (RawBC), stopped by Grand Forks as a part of his tour across British Columbia’s Southern Interior region. RawBC is a volunteer non-profit organization that promotes eating raw food through a plant-based diet, which includes fresh fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts. These foods are rich in enzymes, nutrients, and boosts life energy. Langton noted that statistics have shown that more and more people in Canada and B.C. are becoming sick or sicker. “If B.C. spent $2 million on preventative information and education, wouldn’t that be incredible?” he questioned. “We’re promoting prevention. So we’re not saying get sick so you need the medical system but look after your health so you don’t need
to go that far. As we go down the road for years to come, we need to be looking after our health care.” Part of RawBC’s mandate is to encourage people to eat more raw foods, as opposed to processed and fast food. “A lot of what’s causing our health problems has to do with eating fast foods. It’s not just McDonald’s, but taking something out of the freezer and putting it in the microwave, it’s packaged, processed food,” he explained. “In 1972, $3 billion was spent on fast food. Today, it’s $110 billion, even when you take into account that costs of living, inflation, etc., and that’s a huge jump.” Langton pointed out that instead of eating one apple a week, if you eat two, then you’re already doubling your raw food consumption. Other reasons Langton listed for eating raw included losing weight, decreasing the possibility of degenerative diseases, and strengthening the immune system. “It’s as simple as eating more fruit or vegetables a day,” Langton said.

What to avoid when planting a garden in the Boundary JOCELYN KICKBUSH Boundary Weed Management Committee
Gardens are often an oasis of tranquility however, it is important to keep in mind while building these oases, not all plants are equally suited to every area. Thinking scotch broom, oxeye daisy, yellow flag iris, or knotweed is just what is needed to brighten up that drab corner? Think again. These are all invasive species that can easily continue far past the intended garden corner, resulting in many unintended, negative repercussions and, needless to say, are very difficult to eradicate or control once established. While scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) may have lovely golden yellow flowers and appealing greenery, with trifoliate leaves, it is very flammable and hence a fire hazard, which may cause an increase to house insurance. If it becomes too prolific in an area, such as Vancouver Island, it can even disrupt the natural fire cycle due to its

Due to a wind storm that swept through Grand Forks, 2012 BMX provincial championship events on July 20 were cancelled but thanks to some help from the city and volunteers, events on July 21 and 22 went ahead as scheduled. “We were shut out Friday night, we had that big wind storm, which wrecked havoc in town. It took down two substantial trees across corner two and four (of the BMX track) and we were just about to start racing,” explained Grand Forks BMX Club President Dave Carlyle. “We had to make a work party plan for early the next morning, we got the city’s approval to clear it ourselves and thankfully, the city did the work for us late Friday night.” Carlyle was told by some of the race participants – that were camping at City Park – that a big loader came in at around 10:30 p.m. on the evening of July 20 and cleared the trees. Volunteers picked up branches early on the morning of July 21, meaning all subsequent races could proceed. Note: We stated Paxton Zorn took top-spot in the Big Wheels Moto last week but he came in second. 2012 Grand Forks BMX Club provincial championship race results Big Wheels Motos 1) Kalimaya Romaine (Grand Forks, B.C.) 2) Paxton Zorn (Grand Forks, B.C.) 3) Josiah Kuhn (Princeton, B.C.) 10 Girls 1) Amy Whitty (Penticton, B.C.) 2) Chloe Nilsson (Kelowna, B.C.) 3) Iona Carlyle (Grand Forks, B.C.) 14 Girls 1) Drew Mechielsen (Langley, B.C.) 2) Faith Riddick (Lumby, B.C.) 3) Kasey Wodyga (Grand Forks, B.C.)

The 2012 London Olympic Games are well underway. Many of us who don’t normally tune into sporting events on TV often make the exception for the Olympics. The Olympic motto is “Faster, Higher, Stronger,” and if you asked any athlete, they would confirm that those three words run through their heads as they pursue their Olympic-sized goals. Whether an elite athlete, an amateur sports enthusiast or a sideline dreamer, we all need motivation to spur us on to improve our skills or to even get off the couch and try. Considering statics show that less than 50 per cent of adults get enough physical activity to

reap any healthy benefits, there is a definite lack of motivation among us. So, how do we get motivated and where does it come from? For some of us, personal motivation seems to be natural or part of our DNA. For the rest of us we have to learn to be motivated, foster it and be encouraged by it. Many people try and motivate themselves to do things they just aren’t interested in doing in the first place. So, before you set any goals or develop an action plan, ask yourself, “Why is this important to me? What will I get when I achieve it? What will happen if I don’t achieve this?” If you can’t come up with any answers, than maybe now is not the time to begin something new. It might mean revisiting it at a later date. Once you have answered the key questions, it’s time to surround yourself with encouraging people and stimulating environments – both of which are key to sustaining motivation. The Grand Forks Aquatic Centre can provide both components to those who are motivated to live healthier lives or just want to have more fun in life. Programming at the pool provides fitness and learn-to-swim classes for all ages and abilities. There is opportunity to take part in on-land and in-water programs. You do not have to be a swimmer to participate. If value is a motivation for you, then the aquatic centre can help you out in that department. Beginning today (Aug. 1) to Friday, Aug. 17, Grand Forks Recreation (GFREC) is having a membership pass sale. If you purchase 25 sessions or more, you will receive a 10 per cent discount off of your passes. There is no expiry date on these memberships, so you can stock up for fall. Monday, Aug. 13 marks the last summer swim lesson set for 2012. Sign the kids up for Red Cross swim lessons and the staff will motivate and train your child to be confident and safe in and around water. International Olympic Committee founder Pierre de Coubertin, when referring to the Olympic Games, stated, “The most important thing is not to win but to take part.” Though we’re not Olympic athletes we can live like champions in our everyday lives by getting up, taking part and being responsible for our own health and well-being. We want to help. For more information on Grand Forks Recreation programming, call 250-442-2202. You can also visit our website at www.rdkb.com and view the summer flyer.

CHURCH â?&#x161; HEALTH CARE
Agreement supports doctor recruitment
Government Release
Doctors have ratified a new fouryear agreement that will support ongoing efforts to recruit and retain physicians, while also improving access to specialists and care in rural and remote communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ensuring that families and seniors across British Columbia are able to access the care they need is a priority for our government,â&#x20AC;? said Health Minister Michael de Jong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are pleased that doctors have voted in favour of this agreement. We will continue to work collaboratively with physicians to improve the delivery of health care to British Columbians.â&#x20AC;? The agreement is valued at approximately $100 million over two years, $49 million for the first year and $51 million for the second year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a 1.5 per cent increase in each year. Funding for the first two years of the agreement includes: â&#x20AC;˘ $27 million for increased costs of providing insured services. â&#x20AC;˘ $18 million to support and sustain full-service family practices in B.C. and ensure all British Columbians have access to primary care by 2015. â&#x20AC;˘ $18 million to enhance access
to specialty medical services. â&#x20AC;˘ $14 million to respond to recruitment and retention issues for doctors on service or salary contracts. â&#x20AC;˘ $10 million to enhance the supply and stability of doctors in rural and remote communities as well as access to emergency care. â&#x20AC;˘ $10 million (plus $10 million from existing) to address difficulties in recruiting and retaining specialists. â&#x20AC;˘ $2.7 million to support new procedures and advancements. â&#x20AC;˘ $0.5 million for shared care between specialists and GPs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This four-year agreement will not only support access to care for patients but also provides doctors with the support they need to deliver comprehensive care in the areas of chronic disease management, maternity care, mental health and seniors care,â&#x20AC;? said de Jong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The agreement also includes important funding to recruit and retain more specialists.â&#x20AC;? As part of this agreement, the ministry and the BC Medical Association (BCMA) have identified approximately $10 million in savings from laboratory services to offset costs.
