The Boundary Museum held a blacksmithing course this past weekend, which displayed tools and techniques from the past and present. The museum invited Henry Hamilton (left) and Keegan Einarson (right) from Fort Steele to teach attendees about the trade. More on page 11.
Tasha Brown of Grand Forks, who went missing off the coast of Honduras last weekend, has been found alive, suffering only from a mild case of dehydration last Wednesday. Brown, 20, was one of eight who set out June 29 on a boat destined for Roatan, which is considered the largest of Honduras’ Bay Islands, and was stranded at sea for about four days after the boat ran out of gas. “Two people had phones and were checking their cellphone service. We could still see Roatan in the distance, but no one was getting service,” Brown explained to the Gazette from Honduras. “There were no boats around and we were like, ‘What do we do?’ but there wasn’t much we could do so we decided to sleep it off and wait ‘til morning.” Brown said that when she awoke Sunday morning, they were in the
middle of nowhere, in open water. “In the morning when we first woke up, we were like, ‘Yeah, someone will find us,’ and then we started thinking, ‘We have no water, we have no radio, no flare guns, no paddles, just nothing,” recounted Brown. She said a rainstorm on the third night alleviated the water problem and while she and the others would paddle and steer the boat towards land, they would go to sleep for the night and find themselves in the “middle of nowhere” again when they awoke. While they did attempt to flag down a number of cargo ships and other vessels, it wasn’t until Wednesday morning when they were found and she said it was thanks to some divine intervention. “After the fourth night, we were all pretty beat and we realized we couldn’t tow the boat, we couldn’t swim to shore – which I tried to do, which was stupid so I turned back. We couldn’t flag down any boats, any planes and we were like, ‘What
TASHA BROWN and NATALIE ZMURCHYK
are our options? What are we going to do? We’re running out of water.’ So that morning when I woke up, I said a prayer – ‘God, what do you want me to do? What am I here for?’” Brown explained. Shortly after, she saw a sailboat and jumped in the water and started pulling the boat to the sailboat and Brown said she didn’t know where she got the strength from. Unfortunately, the sailboat didn’t seem to see her and her crew mates but shortly after, there was a plane sighting. While Brown said they had seen a number of planes, this one turned around and circled a number of times before dropping a
flare in the water, at which time she knew she was going home. Natalie Zmurchyk, Brown’s mother, said her daughter was in Honduras since early-May taking a scuba diving course and said the group was found about 97 kilometres west of Roatan and it was the U.S. Coast Guard that found the group. “The Hondurans and the U.S. were a huge part and I just want to make sure the U.S. is (mentioned) in there because without them, they’d still be out there,” she said. “We need to be thankful that they’re coming home safe and well.” As for Brown, while she suffered from dehydration, she feels like a “champ” now. “I woke up (Thursday) morning, brushed my teeth twice. Everything tastes better; I dreamed about ice cream every single night so I went out and got an ice cream cone for breakfast (last Thursday),” Brown said with a laugh.

NEWS z ACCIDENT
Cars collide near USCC hall on July 3
KARL YU
Gazette Editor
An elderly couple from Castlegar was involved in a major accident on Highway 3 last Wednesday (July 3), which closed of Highway 3 for part of the afternoon. The accident occurred by the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ (USCC) hall at the Highway 3 and Community Centre Road area of Grand Forks. Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison said Grand Forks RCMP received the call around 1:08 p.m. “Basically we had a (2001 grey Chrysler Sebring) driven by an 86-yearold male from Castlegar. Unexplainedly, he crossed over into the oncoming lane
and struck a (grey 2012 Toyota Tundra) and trailer that was in the opposite turning lane that had pulled over to the side. The Castlegar man’s 79-year-old wife was with him in the car and both of them received injuries and both were transferred to Trail hospital,” Harrison explained, adding that the male was complaining of chest pains and was initially treated at Boundary Hospital in Grand Forks for a broken femur. Members of Grand Forks Fire Rescue had to extricate the couple from their vehicle with the Jaws of Life, Harrison said. The male, 62, from Peachland, B.C., operating the truck and trailer, suffered only minor injuries from “being bumped around.” Harrison said a third party was in-
volved but thankfully, the driver and vehicle were OK – RCMP didn’t have any details on where the person was from or make and model of the car. “The third vehicle involved was in the oncoming lane. When these people crossed in front of them, managed to avoid the collision by swerving in behind the truck and trailer and ended up going through a ditch and coming out the parallel road (thought to be College Road) and ended up with no injuries and no damage to his vehicle – very fortunate,” said Harrison. As of Monday, there had been no updates on the condition of the couple, according to Harrison, and it had still not been determined why the car veered into the oncoming lane.

z POLICE REPORT
RCMP: Grand Forks male threatens constable with large rock KARL YU
Gazette Editor
On July 2 at 6:42 p.m., at the Edwards Road and Gilpin Road area, RCMP saw a motorcycle with two people, who were not supposed to be together. “Two of the constables on patrol were driving on Whitehall Road when they spotted a motorcycle with two riders on it heading south. They passed the officers and the officers recognized one of the riders, who was known to be under suspension and not allowed to drive, and noticed the passenger was a person (the rider) was on no-contact orders from the court,” explained Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. The motorcycle fled, drove off the road and smashed into a fence, according to Harrison, and the female passenger sustained a broken collarbone while the male fled the scene on foot and a constable pursued. “He threatened the constable with a very large rock. The constable deployed pepper spray, which was ineffective and the suspect escaped,” Harrison said. Peter Kazakoff, 39 from Grand Forks, was arrested Friday afternoon (July 5) and was held in custody and has been charged with dangerous driving causing bodily harm, breach of a probation order, assaulting a police officer and resisting arrest. Harrison said Kazakoff had his bail hearing on Monday. Defective vehicle accident People reported hearing sirens on Saturday (July 6) and Harrison said that it could be due to an accident just east of Grand Forks. “At 5:51 p.m., we received a complaint of a single-vehicle collision near the intersection of 68th Avenue and Highway 3. A grey (1995) Toyota pickup truck lost control when its tire blew out. It struck a concrete barrier and took out the Stop sign,” he said, adding that upon investigation, police noticed the blown tire was completely bald and as a result, a charge was laid for a defective motor vehicle. First responders attended and determined the driver, a 53-year-old from Grand Forks, had no injuries whatsoever. Skull theft On June 17 at Division Road in Grand Forks, a male reported that two skulls that were hanging from his shop went missing.
“One was a bull with down-turned horns, the other was a medium-sized horse with a value of approximately $100 and apparently this person holds regular garage sales and perhaps someone attending took a liking to them and decided to help themselves,” Harrison explained, adding there are currently no suspects or witnesses. Grease and diesel theft On June 21 a theft of fuel and other items was reported to local police. “We had a report from Lime Creek Logging that apparently there was about 500 litres of diesel fuel, a grease gun and a case of grease that was stolen from the spur out on Stewart Creek Forest Service Road,” said Harrison, adding that police investigated, an agreement was reached between the parties and no charges were laid. Flameout Police received a report on June 22 at 9:47 a.m. that someone had lit three small piles of newspapers on fire on the sidewalk of Second Street and Central Avenue over the night. “We have no suspects or witnesses to the fires and no other damage occurred,” explained Harrison. Car impounded At 4:11 p.m. on June 22, police pulled over a vehicle at the 500 block of Central Avenue. “We detected the person was the subject of a complaint of possible impaired driving,” Harrison told the Gazette. “As a result, a roadside screening device was utilized and the person blew a ‘warn’ on the device, which resulted in a three-day immediate roadside prohibition and a three-day vehicle impound.” The driver was a 63-year-old male and a Grand Forks resident. Christina Lake cops patrolling RCMP summer reserve Const. Chris Cottrill is once again patrolling Christina Lake and Harrison said he was busy Canada Day long weekend. Cottrill was enforcing Canada Shipping Act Small Vessel regulations and laid three charges and issued 10 written warnings. “For people who don’t realize it, we keep track of written warnings and if you fail to comply with them and we catch you again, we lay the charge,” explained Harrison, adding that is exactly what happened in two out of the three cases. “One fellow was given a written warn-
RCMP
ing for not having his boat registered in 2011 and he got picked up on this July long weekend and still hadn’t registered his boat, so he got charged for his trouble,” said Harrison. There were six charges of consuming alcohol in public over the long weekend as well. Furthermore, Harrison said this past weekend saw nine warnings issued for vessels on the Lake and the citations ranged from not having a fire extinguisher on the vessel to not having an operator competency card. Also four charges were laid on minors in possession of alcohol at Christina Lake as well. “We’re continuing our Christina Lake patrols both on the water and in the village,” said Harrison. Vehicle theft 72nd Avenue On June 21, Grand Forks RCMP received a report at 1:38 p.m. that $10 in change had been removed from a vehicle on 72nd Avenue and police suspect it happened overnight. Harrison said nothing else was missing from the vehicle and there were no signs of forced entry or damage. “We come back to reminding people to please lock their doors. Don’t make it easy for thieves,” Harrison said. Truck accident On June 25 at 7:59 a.m., there was a single vehicle rollover on the S curve on Highway 395 near the border.
“There was a Kenworth tractor hauling a B-train loaded with lumber overturned. The driver was transported to Boundary Hospital for minor cuts to the back of his head and there were no other injuries,” Harrison said, adding that Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement (CVSE) conducted the investigation along with West Kootenay Traffic Services assisting with the investigation being turned over to CVSE to complete. Harrison said it appeared speed was a factor. To hit-and-run or not hit-and-run On June 25 at 1:15 p.m., Grand Forks RCMP received a report that a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix was parked at the Grand Forks Credit Union parking lot and while the owner initially reported a hit-and-run, it was later learned that wasn’t the case. “Further investigation determined that the driver of the other vehicle had actually reported to ICBC and taken fault for the collision, so it actually wasn’t a hit-andrun and was an accident with damage just under $1,000,” explained Harrison. Uninsured accident On July 5, at 7:38 a.m., RCMP were advised of an accident at Fielding Road at Forester Road in Grand Forks, when a 1995 Chevy Cavalier was found on its roof with no one around the vehicle. “It appeared the accident took place the evening before. Police located the owner of the vehicle and determined the vehicle had been operated without insurance,” Harrison said. “A 26-year-old Grand Forks male was charged with driving without insurance.” Chainsaw theft A chainsaw was reported stolen on June 18 at 9:30 a.m. and RCMP suspects it happened sometime overnight. “It was a Husqvarna chainsaw valued between $800 and $900. It was taken from the back of a pickup truck that was parked at 64th Avenue,” Harrison said. Licence theft At 10:06 a.m. on July 5, police received a report about a theft of a rear licence plate from a vehicle on Garber Road at Christina Lake. The vehicle was a 1987 Ford F-150 pickup truck. Trailer plate missing On June 24 at 1:13 p.m., police received report of a theft of a trailer plate on Granby Road. Harrison said there are no suspects and no witnesses.

z Our View
Sometimes you have to have faith In an era where science answers all and religion is undergoing much scrutiny, it’s easy to dismiss something that people see as an act of God. Some will find ways to refute the so-called events while some will swear that they were touched by the Almighty. Grand Forks native Tasha Brown was in Honduras taking scuba diving lessons when she and a group of people set out on a boat trip recently. They ran out of fuel and were stranded at sea. While some of the group had mobile phones, service wasn’t available because of the location they were at – it’s hard to get a signal when you’re out at sea sometimes. The group wasn’t prepared and was lost at sea for about four days. During the ordeal, the group saw a number of boats and while they tried to flag the vessels down, the vessels and crew were not aware that the group was in need of help. The group was without water as well but a rain storm during the ordeal ensured that they could have a drink. Brown said on the day she was rescued (though she didn’t know it at the time) she said a prayer and talked to God, asking what she should do. The group had seen a number of planes during the four days at sea but shortly after, a plane flew by that spotted the boat and Brown was no worse for wear save for a mild case of dehydration. Was there divine intervention in this case? Of course there’s no way of knowing for sure but you can make an argument for that. There are numerous tales of people lost at sea and sometimes you hear that it ends badly and sometimes, as in Brown’s case, the ending is happy. She said there were situations where she had strength and she didn’t know where it came from. Rain storms happen all the time in tropical climes but it happened at a time when the eight were low on water. It’s easy to say it’s a coincidence but by the same token, who’s to say it isn’t?

I’m a stereotypical guy. I like sports, I like beer, I laugh, or at least smirk, at even the perceived sound of flatulence and I like playing video games – particularly ones where much blood is shed. However, when seeing a post on Facebook, my blood began to boil and I even, like a stereotypical guy, swore. The prestigious Wimbledon tennis tournament took place in England between June 24 and this past Sunday and much was made of Andy Murray being the first U.K.er in close to 80 years on the men’s side (singles). On the women’s side, 28-yearold French player Marion Bartoli took the title, doing what the likes of female powerhouses Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova and Victoria Azarenka usuall do. She made it through the first, second and third rounds, as well as the Round of 16, the quarter,

semi and ultimately the final – an amazing accomplishment for anyone, in a major tennis tournament or otherwise. Still, the Twitterverse – which is a blessing and curse to humanity in my opinion – is rife with degenerates who sought to cheapen Bartoli’s achievement by appealing to the basest tenants of chauvinism – they took shots at her appearance. The childish tweets ranged from some who thought she looked like a male, how unattractive they thought she was to how disgusting some thought she was. One tweeter even said
she didn’t deserve to win based on her looks; some tweets aren’t even worth mentioning. Appearance has no bearing on how people perform, in case you didn’t know and Bartoli did deserve to win because she not only played well but outlasted the field. Chances are Bartoli doesn’t care what the tweeters are saying either; her goal is to be a good tennis player and win and that’s exactly what she did at the All England Club where Wimbledon is held. Twitter is often an anonymous way for people to launch sneak attacks, shielded by a Twitter account but chances are the tweeters aren’t male models either. Bartoli said her dream was to win Wimbledon and that she did. Kudos to you Marion and don’t let anyone take that away from you.

Thanking the LaFonds Editor:
Re: Locals concerned about LaFond ranch (story, July 3 issue) I wish to thank Kevin LaFond for the two excellent horses that found a good home and make my life so much better. Things in general are not always what they seem although they could/should be. A lot of horses from Kevin’s ranch find new homes, which cannot be said of the ones going straight from the auction to the feedlot. Has anyone been to a feedlot lately? A lot of suffering there. Has anyone checked what is in kitty’s food? Maybe a dolphin that was joyously following tuna. How about your dog’s food? Cows living doped up in feedlots and the lineup to the slaughterhouse? People leave a long trail of suffering, in many ways. Angelica Herlihy, Grand Forks
z HOLIDAYS
Canada Day great Editor: Congratulations should go out to all the hard-working individuals involved in planning and implementing Grand Forks’ Canada Day celebration. This massive undertaking seemed to go off without a hitch.
The parade was well worth seeing and kudos should go out to all those involved in organizing the parade and the participants. My only criticism is why were the metal bleachers at Gyro Park placed in the hot 100-degree sun? The audience did not use the bleachers because they were just too hot. A better plan would have been to place these seats in the shade. Lorraine Nickiford, Grand Forks

Whispers of Hope says it needs help from the public now Editor: Through the generosity of the community and grants, Whispers of Hope has been able to provide a welcoming place where people can stop in for a cup of coffee, soup and sandwich or even a hot meal in a place where all belong in the community. Whispers welcomes all people, regardless of religion, race or life situation. Surplus bread and other food are also distributed when available. Our thrift shop, located at the back of our building, can be accessed through the common area and kitchen. In addition to our regular guests, we have begun to see
z OPINION some with mild to significant mental and physical health challenges. We are seeing more youth who are unable to find secure employment and have a genuine hunger, not just for food, but for fellowship. As the need and cost to operate our program continues to rise, our revenues are decreasing. We are currently working together with Boundary Emergency Transition Housing Society (BETHS) and Habitat for Humanity Boundary on a shared accommodation project to better address the reality of poverty in our community. This will reduce our operating costs and allow us to enhance our thrift store to increase this revenue, with the probability of eventually fully funding our kitchen. In the meantime, we find ourselves with a significant shortfall in this fiscal year. As it now stands, we will be out of funds by the end of August. Our board and team are committed to seeing Whispers through this tough time. We are calling on the community for financial assistance to see us through this year and until we can move forward to a sustainable model of operation. Whispers still welcomes donations of items to sell in our thrift store. We are also accepting donations to sell at our yard sale to be held later this summer. Small items can be dropped off at Whispers of Hope. To arrange for larger items, call Louise at 250-443-1565. Whispers of Hope is a charitable organization and can issue tax receipts for your donations. Thank you, Jake Raven/ Louise Heck Whispers of Hope Benevolence Association

An example of a green energy company
Earlier on in April, I had the pleasure of visiting Princeton Co-Generation along with Regional District of Okanagan-SiALEX ATAMANENKO milkameen director Brad Hope. I would like to thank Glenn Smith and others at the plant for making this interesting and informative visit possible. Princeton Co-Generation, which was founded in 1994, owns and operates a 100,000 ton wood pellet mill and is the fourth largest employer in the town. It produces a much sought after carbon neutral green energy product. The pellet mill supports 35 full-time equivalent jobs (many at entry level) at the pellet plant and supports a further 70 full-time equivalent jobs, which transport feed stock – saw dust and shavings from B.C. interior saw mills to the pellet plant and deliver finished goods – fuel pellets and animal bedding products throughout Canada, the West Coast of the U.S., and to the Vancouver port for export to Europe and Asia. The pellet mill contributes in excess of $8 million per year to the local economy. The pellet plant exports roughly 60 per cent of its product, the majority of which is being utilized in Europe to offset emissions from coal fired power plants. South Korea is also emerging as a key market for 2013 and beyond. The current owners purchased the pellet plant in 2006 for a consideration of $5 million. They have subsequently invested a further $4.5 million in plant upgrades to increase the pellet plant capacity from 60,000 to 100,000 tons per year, despite significant economic challenges for the pellet industry during the last three years, recent and partial closure of B.C. interior saw mills and the loss of export pricing advantage against the U.S. dollar. B.C. provincial policies supporting climate change policy, renewable energy and good use of forestry assets, remain the key attraction for the ownership group, which would like to continue and expand operations at Princeton if possible. There were, however, a number of economic challenges which arose in 2012, namely significant unplanned mandated expenditure on pellet plant upgrades and electrical equipment, as a consequence of provincial saw mill incidents. Despite these economic challenges, the owners of Princeton Co-Generation remain very proactive and have managed to meet the additional unplanned expenditures. It is my hope that both the federal and provincial governments will be able to assist Princeton Co-Generation to continue its existing operation and potentially grow to meet an ever growing demand for its green energy products. Princeton Co-Generation has been a trusted and proactive business and employer in the area for 18 years and is at the forefront of addressing a wide variety of community issues, climate change, and environmental issues, and continues to support and make financial contributions to local groups with strong community ties. – Alex Atamanenko MP for the B.C.

Royal Canadian Legion Branch 59 looking for outdoor expansion
JIM HOLTZ
For the Grand Forks Gazette
Grand Forks city council passed a resolution on June 24 to support the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 59’s application to the BC Liquor Control Board to add a 297 square metre (3,200 square feet), fenced in, outdoor area to its premises. “We’re looking at an outdoor area for playing horse shoes,” local legion vice-president and chaplin Ken GresleyJones said. “It would be all fenced. The idea is that when we do have an outdoor function, such as a barbecue, that people would be able to sit outside with a drink. Right now, they can go into the lounge to have a drink but they can’t take it outside.” The proposed outdoor area is just part of the facelift that the legion is receiving Gresley-Jones said, adding that both bathrooms had been redone and the kitchen was being remodelled as well, with an island and a commercial dishwasher. Changes in BC liquor laws and demographic changes have made the local
legion look to non-traditional sources of income, he said. “The lounge used to be our primary source of income. This past year, the Sunday dinners have been very successful, excellent meals at a reasonable price and dancing after. That has been our main source of income of late,” GresleyJones said. It would be nice if the legion could expand its membership, he added. “I’m hoping we can draw in some younger people, people of all ages. We are always looking for members and the qualifications for joining the legion now are much more relaxed than they used to be. Even without any military background, if you believe in the principles of the Canadian Legion, you can join. It’s a quiet, friendly place,” he said. According to Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, the changes that council voted to support should help improve the legion’s situation. “People have been very frustrated at the legion that they haven’t been able to generate funds for their own survival,” Taylor said. “And yet at the same time they are being expected to contribute

tens of thousands of dollars in charitable contributions to the community.” In its resolution, council stated that the number of patrons allowed at the legion would not be increased from 185, and that the residents surrounding the legion property had all been notified of the application and had been advised that they could address council at the June 24 meeting if they had concerns. In the resolution, council further stated that the city had determined that any increase in traffic or noise from the outdoor expansion would remain within limits deemed standard for that area of the city. Taylor indicated that the process for expansion undertaken by the legion would be a lengthy one, as the rules set out by the liquor control branch are quite detailed. No residents came before council to comment on the expansion, and indeed Taylor said that there appeared to be a fair amount of support for the legion’s plans. “People seem to be wishing them well,” Taylor said.

Q.
What is the BC Services Card and how do I get one?
The new BC Services Card is part of government’s plan to modernize B.C.’s health care system. It replaces your CareCard, and also acts as your photo ID. It’s more convenient, more secure and will enable access to other government services in the future.
A.
Most adults will have to renew enrolment in the Medical Service Plan (MSP) by 2018 and apply for a BC Service Card at a driver licensing office like the ones at our Castlegar Downtown and New Denver offices. Before coming into the office, check your driver’s licence and CareCard to be sure that your name matches exactly on both. If not, call Health Insurance BC at 604-683-7151 or 1-800-633-7100. The BC Services Card can be issued as a separate piece of photo ID or combined with your driver’s licence (it can not be combined with a BC Identification card or Enhanced Driver’s Licence). There’s no additional fee for the BC Services Card; however, if you choose to combine it with your driver’s licence the regular renewal or duplicate driver’s licence fees still apply. If you choose to combine your CardCard with your driver’s licence, your privacy will be protected. Health care providers will not be able to see your driving record and police or ICBC agents will not be able to access your health information. Children under the age of 19 can continue to use their CareCards but newborns enrolled in MSP will be issued nonphoto BC Services Cards issued by Heath Insurance BC. Use your BC Services Card the same way you use your CareCard to access health services today. To learn more please contact either the Castlegar Downtown or New Denver RHC Insurance Broker offices or go online to BCServicesCard.ca.

Thank You
The GFATV Club held their second annual Reverse Draw June 22 at the Senior’s Hall in City Park. We would like to thank all the participants that purchased tickets to support the event. This year the funds went to a loading /unloading ramp located at 28 Mile Bridge. Loading and unloading an ATV is one of the leading causes of accidents when ATVing. The Club would like to thank Jeff Stoyanowski of Stoys’ Grille for preparing the local meat provided by North Fork Pork and Poultry and Fred Benson’s beef, and Pat from B&B Bakery for providing the buns. The following sponsors donated prizes: B&F Sales, Main Jet, Work and Play, Kootenay Car Care, RHC Insurance, The Victoria Motel & RV Park, Can Am Mobility, Lordco, Clyde’s Pub, GF Station Pub, Christina Lake Fire Department, Cascade Par 3, Boundary Mapping, Ministry of Lands and Forests, and Playmore Power Products brought over a good display of ATVs to look at.
Mark Coleman and Brian Pankoff split the $1,000 prize.

City has unanticipated expenses to the tune of $32K
JIM HOLTZ
For the Grand Forks Gazette
Grand Forks city council learned of three unanticipated expenses totaling over $32,000 at the June 24 council meeting. The batteries that allow the solar powered airport beacons to operate at night were discovered to need replacement at a cost of $9,674, a sewage pump required an upgrade costing $8,205, and the city’s water system required pump upgrades worth $14,955. According to Grand Forks Chief Administrative Officer Doug Allin, the expenses, while unanticipated, could perhaps be covered without affecting the city’s budget. “We have an operating budget that we expect these expenditures will fall into,” Allin told council. “But we will make amendments and adjustments to our expenses to account for these. We just want council to be aware that there was an expenditure of $32,000 that we hadn’t anticipated this year.” According to a memorandum filed by Hal Wright, city manager of operations, because the 16-year-old batteries could no longer power the airport beacon sites, nighttime emergency flights were impossible and so for safety reasons were immediately replaced. Likewise in June, the submersible pump in Well No. 3 stopped working and required im-
mediate replacement. Without all five city water system pumps working, Wright reported the amount of water required in emergency situations would not be made available. The upgrade to the sewage pump at the Boundary Lift Station, while not an emergency, was an expense that was becoming more and more necessary. “At the sewage lift station, when people discharge too many products down the toilet or into the sewage system that are less than typical – rags or anything else down there – then it plugs up our pumps and causes big problems to our system,” Allin explained. He said that every few days, city crews had to remove the sewage pump, clear the blockage caused by garbage flushed into the system and then re-install the pump. Each operation took two staff members at least two hours to perform. The $8,000 expense is for a new impeller that will be able to better deal with the blockages. Still, Allin says the public could play an important role if it were more conscientious. “We would like the public to consider what they are putting down the toilet,” Allin said, “Because it does have a big impact on the cost of operating the system.” If the city is unable to save money in other areas to cover the unanticipated expenses, an amendment to the budget will be brought before council in November, Allin said.
❚ COURT REPORT “Get Up Get Out Join In Ride Safe”
Lafreniere convicted, Kinakin in jail KARL YU
Gazette Editor
Tim Lafreniere, the Grand Forks man charged with aggravated assault in a May 2012 incident, has been found guilty. Lafreniere was accused of striking another Grand Forks resident with a glass liquor bottle in a fight in the Moto area east of Grand Forks and the victim had to be placed in a medically-induced coma. “He was convicted there, I believe it was (June 21) and they’ve postponed the hear-
ing for sentencing,” explained Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison, adding he didn’t know when the sentencing hearing was. In other court-related news, a prolific offender has received jail time for a series of thefts. Harrison said Jarrod Kinakin was arrested June 29. “We had a warrant for his arrest for being unlawfully at large, plus we had a couple of other charges of break-andenter and that type of thing against him. He went to court and received a nine-month sentence,” he said. “One of the
charges was based on a DNA hit that we got. Basically we had sent exhibits into the lab to be analyzed for DNA and it came back positive and as a result of that, he was charged with break-and-enter.” The positive DNA match came from a series of vehicle thefts in the Valmar area last year but Harrison said analysis doesn’t happen overnight. “It takes a while for the lab to process and identify the DNA and it came back last month as a positive hit so we proceeded with a charge from there,” said Harrison.

Society cleans up the lake z Local Submission CHRISTINA LAKE STEWARDSHIP SOCIETY
The directors of the Christina Lake Stewardship Society recently completed a 10-week long project, which saw the clean up of 31 sites which fronted Crown lands on Christina Lake. This project was initiated at the request of Regional District of Kootenay Boundary Area C Director Grace McGregor and organized through the parks and recreation commission at Christina Lake. The clean up involved dismantling many old docks and walkways, removing all nails, bolts, Styrofoam and hazardous materials and then cutting all remaining wood into campfire lengths. In addition, other debris such as Styrofoam-filled tires, indoor/outdoor carpet, etc. was picked up along the lakeshore. A total of 370 volunteer hours went into this project and 2½ tons of undesirable material was hauled to the Grand

Forks landfill, leaving an estimated 15 to 20 tons of campfire wood for the public to use free of charge. McGregor said, “It is unbelievable how much work the Christina Lake Stewardship have done to clean up the lakeshore. It is time-consuming physical work and just goes to demonstrate
the dedication the stewardship society has to keeping Christina Lake clean and healthy. The dock removal project not only looks after the lake itself but helps keep property values at a premium. The stewardship deserves everyone’s support.” The project had commenced with the volunteers conducting a survey of docks on Christina Lake, including photographs. All owners are cautioned that in future anyone allowing their old dock to float away, or tied up against Crown lands, will be charged with the full cost of the required clean up. The Christina Lake Stewardship Society, which helps in educating the public and protecting the watershed, needs the financial support, not only of the residents of Area C, but also all those visitors and property owners who reside elsewhere. Donations will be gratefully accepted at the Christina Lake Stewardship Office at the Christina Lake Welcome Centre. Anyone wishing to dispose of an old dock can contact the stewardship office. The society will arrange for the safe dismantling and disposal for a fee of approximately $400 plus dump charges. Call 250-447-2504 to obtain a quote.

Telus warns of ‘spoofing,’ advises people not to give out personal info over phone
Gazette Staff
Telus is warning of a scam involving fraudulent calls aimed at wireless and landline phone customers in British Columbia and Alberta. The latest form of fraud involves what is called “spoofing,” where caller ID signals are re-programmed, making it seem that a call is coming from a legitimate representative and business. “When someone picks up the scam call, the imposter on the other end of the line claims to be Telus or another wellknown organization, saying the person they called has won a prize,” Telus said in a release. “Other variants of the scam ask you
to press 1 to receive a prize. The imposter will then try to convince the person they’ve called to hand over personal information and credit card numbers in order to collect the alleged prize. This can result in unauthorized charges to a credit card or identity theft,” it said. Telus says the calls are a scam and strongly advises against people giving out their credit card information to unknown callers or when receiving an automated call – it also strongly advises customers to hang up when dealing with such calls. “Telus is also urging Canadians not give out personal information over the phone unless certain they are speaking to a legitimate company. If unsure when

receiving a call from someone claiming to be from a company and asking for information, Telus recommends they either hang up or ask for a number to call them back at directly to ensure they are speaking with someone legitimate,” it went on to say. Telus has a fraud management centre that is available to help customers and provide fraud awareness and asks customers to call 1-877-567-2062 if they think they may have given personal information to a fraudster and want help securing their credit card numbers, personal information and Telus account.

Fair takes place August, geared towards youth
KARL YU
Gazette Editor
The Grand Forks and District Fall Fair may be happening earlier in 2013 but organizers still expect all will have a great time. The fair has been moved up from September to late-August (Friday, Aug. 23 to Sunday, Aug. 25) and Grand Forks and District Fall Fair Society President Jason McIver said that contrary to rumours, one of the biggest draws the past two years – the mini chuckwagon races – will be taking place. “They’re coming for Saturday and Sunday (Aug. 24 and 25) with six teams from Alberta,” McIver said. In addition, McIver says the B.C. Country Music Association (BCCMA) is on board with BCCMA 2012 female artist of the year AJ Woodworth and Grand Forks’ own Amanda Thate amongst those performing at this year’s fair. The fall fair board said that it is gearing this year’s fair more towards family and youth and to that end, McIver is introducing a survivor event for children 12 to 16 years old. McIver didn’t want to get into details about the events involved, as he didn’t want to give any of the competitors an advantage, but said it would be an intense competition with the field being narrowed to three contestants who would vie for top prize.

McIver also said that the beer garden will be moved from the Dick Bartlett Park area, across the street to the bar area above the curling rink. “John Zibin (of The Source) is going to try to hook up a camera to (one of the screens) so people inside can watch the music play out there,” explained McIver. There will also be, what organizers are calling, a cupcake walk, which is like musical chairs, and Uncle Chris The Clown, The Mad Hatter Show featuring Gary Badke, and Honk The Hobo will be there to entertain as well. Potato sack races, ice cream and watermelon eating contests will be available for the young ones. Children aged five to eight years can also enter a draw in the months leading up to the fair with a chance to be fair royalty. “This is a (draw) that’s beginning now. The pictures will be in the programs, which should be out (this) week. There’s a picture kids can colour and they drop it off at A&W or the Farmer’s Market. It’s not a contest but it’s a draw,” said Deborah Nickiford, one of the organizers, adding that a young girl and boy will be selected as mini queen and king of the fair. “They get a whole bunch of nice prizes and they ride on the (parade) float,” she said. McIver asked that everyone head to the fall fair between Aug. 23 to 25. “Come and support Grand Forks,” McIver said.

The Boundary Museum held a blacksmithing course on Saturday (July 6). Open to members of the community, the two-day course was aimed at showing participants blacksmithing tools and techniques from many years ago and ones used today. The course had 10 participants, all from the British Columbia area except one who travelled from Edmonton to take part. Throughout the two days, participants learned about different blacksmithing techniques as well as history and etiquette of the trade. The Boundary Museum invited Henry Hamilton and Keegan Einarson from Fort Steele to teach the participants about the trade. On display were some of the blacksmith’s own chains and other projects to show
and inspire the class. A special tool that was used during demonstrations was a bellow (a device that produces a blast of air) made by local Bill Bevan. In late-April of this year, Bevan began to make the bellow that he later donated to the museum just in time for the weekend’s course. Bevan, the secretary of the Boundary Woodworkers Guild, explained that there was not a guide on how to make a bellow. Bevan explained that he engineered it not by a plan but rather from “photographs and knowing what goes on inside the bellows.” The Boundary Museum’s mission is to educate members of the Kootenays about the area, history and heritage.

Talking about crap in the river ❚ Kettle River Q&A GRAHAM WATT
In a recent column about sediment I noted that fecal coliform bacteria had been rising in the Kettle River at Midway. Some readers asked me to spell out what that means. Fecal coliform bacteria are a large group of microscopic organisms which live in the intestines of warm-blooded animals, including humans, cattle and deer. They also live in animals’ feces, or “crap,” and continue living for a time in soil, streams, lakes or groundwater. When water meets crap on the ground, its load of bacteria, viruses and parasites can be carried into streams and lakes or even into groundwater. Bacteria can thrive in the right conditions or be killed off by sunlight. These bacteria are not necessarily agents of disease but are measured because they indicate the possible presence of disease-carrying organisms.
The deaths and illnesses in Walkerton, Ont., were a tragic reminder of why we need to monitor and manage bacteria in water sources, in particular for deadly strains of E. coli. Increasing fecal coliform bacteria could be due to livestock, failing septic systems, or poorly performing wastewater treatment plants. Other important sources include wildlife, pets and stormwater run-off in urban areas. Scientists measure fecal coliform bacteria by counting the number of bacterial colonies (colony-forming units or CFUs) per 100 ml of water. For water to be safe to drink without treatment, there should be no colonies present, according to the BC Water Quality Guidelines. Low levels (less than 10 CFU/100 ml) require disinfection and greater numbers require higher levels of treatment. Other standards exist for recreation, shellfish harvesting, irrigation, cattle watering and food processing. We, as individuals and communities can help prevent and manage “crap” in our waters by: • Picking up after pets • Watering and feeding cattle away from rivers, streams and
wells Practice good manure management (composting, field application) and prevent buildup in wet areas • Encouraging native trees and shrubs to grow around the edges of water bodies because they act as filters • Placing and maintaining septic systems properly and according to regulations • Placing and maintaining wells far from septic systems, flood waters, and agricultural runoff • Testing water regularly • Maintaining and updating sanitary and storm sewers in urban areas The Stakeholder Advisory Group will be looking at these and other strategies for protecting water quality and managing risks to drinking water this fall – stay tuned to our website at http://kettleriver.ca. – Graham Watt is the co-ordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan for the RDKB, and is working with a Stakeholder Advisory Group from across the region to develop the plan.

GALLERY 2 GARDEN TOUR 2013
Sights and delights of 2013 Garden Tour DELLA MALLETTE Gazette Staff
From backyard labours of blooming love to heirloom vegetables to a 40-hectare nursery, gallery 2’s 2013 Garden Tour offered more than the traditional garden. On Saturday, about 160 people registered to ride or drive the tour of 12 honoured gardens located not only in Grand Forks but Greenwood as well this year. Bron and Sons Nursery was the exclusive feature to this year’s event, as Bron staffer Cheryl Ahrens hosted a very rare look at a large nursery that offers 975 varieties of plants, shrubs and perennials – and many of those in a variety of sizes as well. Five Grand Forks private gardens generously opened for the tour, as did the Kettle River Community Garden. Ross and Jan Freer of Son Ranch, a stop between Grand Forks and Greenwood, was a must-see for flower and wood lovers alike (the chainsaw museum was an extra attraction that didn’t disappoint). Greenwood itself featured three private gardens, and the farm-to-table products of Annemarie and Jeff Berryman – heirloom vegetables being their specialty.

Gail and Ken McKinnon’s back garden on 77th Avenue is a “family-oriented space that is an extension of our home,” hostess Gail said – and truly it’s an inspiring blend of hardscape and landscape dominated as much by the greenery as by the blue waters of the swimming pool. Whitbread garden Roses of every colour, hostas, vegetables, berries … from a back yard of weeds just eight years ago to a calming oasis today, the garden of Sherry and Pat Whitbread was designed with an “invitation to ramble in mind.”
Son Ranch was originally homesteaded back in the ‘30s; the Dondale family planted 27 species of eastern hardwoods. The Freers have worked extensively over the years to improve the landscape. A timber frame pergola is a recent addition. – Images by Della Mallette and Tina Bryan.

Producer member Steve Ewasyn has a little slice of ‘Eden’ Many saw Romeo and Juliette and remember Leo McKern in his herbal garden. NORMAN Some have CHAPMAN been lucky enough to walk in walled herbal gardens in medieval monasteries in France but even more rare is an opportunity to climb the hill to visit Steve Ewasyn in Gilpin. Here on our doorstep, what’s discovered is an elemental battle, a monumental struggle to realize a dream. Ewasyn is a tall, lean man whose eyes and manner indicate a strong belief and commitment to foods that enhance lives. He began his struggle to farm the mountainside in the ’80s. Water was led down the mountain to his various gardens; this water has sufficient pressure to operate overhead spraying equipment. Each garden has a labelling letter so as one wanders through the hillside growth, suddenly one is confronted with Garden “P,” a nettle and burdock garden of such profusion that it almost feels like this must be the quintessential nettle and burdock garden. The reason for the profusion is Ewasyn has literally trucked up hundreds of loads of horse manure over the years and it is this that has enriched the thin mountainside soils. In some ways, his gardens evoke Genesis; one feels as if one is witnessing the kind of profusion of the original garden. Rockets in purples and yellows abound (some sweet, some spicy), sweet Cicely, chives, onions, cherries, pears, apples and grape are just a sampling of what has been planted. But it is a battle. Weeds are constantly encroaching and Ewasyn says that he sometimes uses compost to smother the weeds and thus overwhelm them. Blind gophers are also trying to make inroads on his plantings. And, of course, there are his chickens. He has a flock that must have representatives of most breeds known to man. These chickens are what free range is all about; however, his dogs patrol the boundaries and keep them safe from predators. Steve Ewasyn has created his own Eden. He has herbs for sale and his product is strictly organic – a full list of his offerings can be seen at the co-op’s website.

COMMUNITY Oscar-nominated Hunt and The Sessions uplifting z Martin’s Movie Pick LIZ MARTIN
Enjoying a little history Rick Seymour of Owl Mountain Ranch hosted the Boundary Historical Society last month for its annual picnic. The ranch offers a wide variety of services from trail rides and tours to camping to a petting zoo, but on this day, history was the attraction as Seymour pointed out some of the many unique items on display and delved into a talk about the ranch’s past.

Hi movie lovers! This time I’m reviewing a very unusual movie called The Sessions, shown as a Spotlight Film recently. This was called The Surrogate originally and the movie came out in 2012. This was a very surprising, interesting and amusing movie about a polio victim (played by John Hawkes) in an iron lung who wishes to lose his virginity before he dies. This is based on an essay by Mark O’Brien and was written and directed by Ben Lewis. Helen Hunt, Hawkes and William H. Macy star and are all very good. Hunt was nominated at this year’s Oscars for her role as a best supporting actress. She had to appear semi-nude in many scenes and they were done with much taste. Macy plays the part of a priest to whom our protagonist visits and
declares his desire for sex. At first the priest is slightly shocked and not sure what to tell him. There are many humorous lines in this film and as the subject is a tricky one, I have to admire how it came across, at least to me. It traces the burgeoning relationship between Hunt’s character Cheryl Cohen-Greene and Hawkes’ character Mark O’Brien and as the therapist is happily married, this was difficult to say the least. The acting is very good; I do not know Hawkes, never having seen him before, but he did a grand job. I won’t give the whole story away, suffice to say it is uplifting in every way possible and most believable. I have never seen Hunt in a state of undress before but it takes guts and she is not a young woman but is in very good shape and acts the part so well. There is a copy of this fine movie at the Grand Forks Pawn Shop on Central Avenue should anyone be interested, I would encourage you to give it a watch especially on these very hot afternoons. Good movie watching everyone. – Liz Martin is a film critic for the Grand Forks Gazette, a movie lover, cello player and happy retiree

SPORTS z RUGBY
Greenwood resident organizing Boundary Bash Social 10s tourney B.C. Day long weekend
FRANK MORELAND
For the Grand Forks Gazette
Oliver Glaser moved from the urban West Coast to the rural Boundary and is bringing his passion for rugby and all the rugby community-building activities that come with it. Glaser is organizing the Boundary Bash Social 10s rugby tournament in Greenwood for the B.C. Day long weekend (Aug. 3 to 5). “I want to inspire and show people of all ages how inclusive, fun and social rugby is. A tough, hard-hitting game where you leave it all on the pitch but one where good sportsmanship is prized,” Glaser explained. Glaser moved to Greenwood over a year ago and was happy about the Boundary Wanderers rugby team in Grand Forks; they have since folded but it has not deterred him. While Glaser may be a new local championing Boundary regional rugby, he is not alone, as he has his old team supporting him. Glaser has a history of playing rugby since high school and as a member of the East Van Scribes RFC. The Scribes
have the organizational capacity and are volunteering to host the Greenwood tournament with Glaser’s leadership. Glaser met with the Greenwood city council in the winter, where a motion was passed to support the tournament and welcome the extra cash flow for local merchants. The Scribes are inviting teams from B.C., Alberta and the U.S. to play and party in a 10s rugby tournament, where there are 10 players per side and there are 20-minute halves. This makes the games much shorter, instead of the 15 per side and 40-minute halves under Rugby Union rules. The rugby team categories are for men, women and Old Boys. The tournament prizes are honour (bragging rights) awards according to 10s competitions. Glaser also has pickup team opportunities available for local rugby players who want to play in the tournament. “In rugby there is a place for everyone on the pitch; young, old, fat, skinny, fast or slow,” he said. The rugby tournament games are complemented with introduction to rugby skills activities and social activi-
ties. On Saturday, the skills competitions will demonstrate kicking, precision throwing and long passes, (as well as the hilarious full contact walking rugby) while other social activities will include tug-of-wars and boat races. Sunday is full-on rugby all day and the evening has the Scribes’ house band, the Dropbears, perform live during the awards ceremony. Monday will be a recovery day, although the concession will be open for breakfast. “Out of all the sports I have played in my life, I feel that rugby is the most social,” Glaser said. Each rugby team has a clubhouse, said Glaser, and there are rugby clubhouses all around the world that people can contact and be welcomed by new friends. Rugby teams hold social events and volunteer for other community events. Glaser put it this way, “Drinking beer and rugby go hand in hand and it is an appeal for the sport that lasts through the generations.” For more information go to www. scribesrfc.com/boundary-bash/

SPORTS
Beat the heat with the help of GFREC Summer is a wonderful time to be outdoors. The longer days provide opportunities for added hours KIM enjoying water sports, JOHNSON hiking, biking, gardening and play. A sunny day generally helps us feel energetic and happy. But when the temperatures climb too high, activities out of doors can cause physical harm if precautions are not taken. Exertion in hot weather can cause your core body temperature to rise, both from the exercise and air temperature. The body tries to cool itself by sending blood to circulate through the skin leaving less blood for muscles, in turn increasing the heart rate. If it is humid outside sweat won’t evaporate from the skin, pushing the body temperature even higher. Under normal conditions our bodies will adjust to temperature changes. However, in extreme heat and overexposure, our cooling systems may fail, resulting in heat-related illness. Heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heatstroke are all serious conditions requiring various degrees of first aid or medical attention. Watch for the warning signs of heat-related illness. They include muscle cramps, nausea or vomiting, weakness, headache, dizziness and confusion. If you develop any of these symptoms, you need to lower your body temperature and get hydrated. If you walk or run for exercise, choosing an alternative

A couple, desperate to conceive a child, went to their priest and asked him to pray for them. “I’m going on a sabbatical to Rome,” he replied, “and whiel I’m there, I’ll light a candle for you.” When the priest returned three years later, he went to the coupel’s house and found the wife pregnant, busily attending to two sets of twins. Elated, the priest asked her where her hsuband was so he could congratulate him. “He’s gone to Rome, to blow that candle out!”

Blues see better numbers and thus, more competitive in 2013 KARL YU
Gazette Editor
The Grand Forks Blues baseball team closed out its XBL season with a hard-fought 15-13 loss and 6-1 loss to Nelson on June 23. The league is made up of men aged 16 years and up, with the Blues competing with the likes of teams from Trail, Castlegar and Nelson. The Blues went 6-14 but Tom Starchuk, second baseman, said they were competitive. “I think this was a very good year for us, mostly because our number of registered players increased from last season. Also, the players we did have showed more commitment to the team by making most practices and
games,” said Starchuk. He said that the average attendance to practice was between four and six players last year, which had him scrambling to get enough players for games, but that wasn’t the case this year. “The most important factor in our growth as a team was having larger numbers at practice, giving us more opportunity to teach and practice game situational skills and knowledge, thus helping us grow as a team,” Starchuk said. “We competed in more games this year. Even though we had a losing record, almost all of our losses were within a few runs. All in all, we had a fun year, and I am excited to see what next year bring.”

With new name, Grand Forks Liquor Store Chicks take Boundary women’s tourney title again
PAT KELLY
Boundary Creek Times
“It’s going to be really, really nice to put a different name on the trophy this year,” said Boundary Women’s Softball president Jennifer Eaton as she called the Grand Forks Liquor Store Chicks (LSC) forward to collect their first place trophy at the close of the 2013 Boundary Women’s Softball tournament last weekend in Beaverdell. The Liquor Store Chicks took the final game against Rock Creek, winning at the end of five innings when the mercy rule called the game. The backstory is that the LSC is the same team that won for the past two years – it just has a new sponsor, hence the new name. The team was once sponsored by the Winnipeg Hotel, and known as the Winnie Chicks, but now that the Winnipeg is no more it is sponsored by the Liquor Store and More in Grand Forks. The action started at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning with Greenwood playing Beaverdell. Eaton reported there were no major injuries through the weekend. LSC coach Sam Ross said that the Grand Forks team won all three of its round robin games and then lost its first playoff game to Greenwood. “Which put us in the position where we couldn’t lose again or we were done. “The girls came back from a game yesterday where we did not play well and the Greenwood team (did). It didn’t go very well for us at all. We were glad to have that out of the way,” he said. LSC played three games on Sunday, playing
at 9:30 a.m. and then, after a game break, they played two back-to-back games. Gary Spencer was the head umpire, assisted by Jason Eaton, Terry Young, Clint Elliot and Ryan Bosovich. Scorekeepers were Darlene Rexin and Evy Uphill. • • •

Dianna Chursinoff Dianna Chursinoff (nee Markin) also referred to as Tina, was born August 20, 1924 and passed away on July 4, 2013 in the palliative room at the Salmon Arm Hospital. On Sunday June 23, 2 weeks ago with Dianna in Hospital, she and her immediate family were made aware of the serious nature of her physical pain and further decline in her health. As we prepared to say good bye, Dianna shared relevant stories with us about her recent years joy and delight at the arrival of each great grandchild. She also reflected on the love she felt for her own parents and childhood. Significant for her were the memories of her father telling stories each evening that she and her siblings looked forward to, and most important in these were the stories her father shared about Jesus, she told us she was in “awe of this wonderful man”. Dianna remembers her early years as a time when everyone helped to look after their homestead farm. All were involved in cooking, working on the farm and with the animals. It is here where they started as a family to sing and harmonize while working. Her early childhood to age 11 were in the communities of Arran and Pelly, where she resided with her parents ( Fred and Florence ) and siblings. She enjoyed visiting at the homes of her older sisters and brother; ( Molly, Mary, Polly, John) and living with her parents and siblings still at home with her (Fred, Helen, and Mert). From Saskatchewan, Dianna moved to Grand Forks in 1935. She married Peter Chursinoff on Feb 14, 1943. While she lived the majority of her time in Grand Forks, there was also a 16 year stretch in Oliver (1948 to 1963). She and Peter had good memories of working in the orchards, building a home in Oliver, raising 3 children (Connie, Steve, and Nina), and spending time with family and friends. With a natural ear for singing, Dianna also taught herself to play accordion and harmonica. Singing and music were integral parts of family and friend gathering. She has always enjoyed the company of relatives, many who are her dearest friends as well. She enjoyed family life with her husband Peter. She also took pleasure in gardening, cooking fabulous food, sewing, reading, and watching her favourite programs on television. When she was physically able to, she participated in the USCC ladies cooking group, Christian Community Centre, weekly bible study and praise singing at the home of Mabel Papove, and in work with the Secondary School cleaning staff. Dianna experienced a tragic loss of a child when her son Steve died at age 21 and later an early loss of her husband Peter leaving her widowed at the age of 60. Chronic sorrow over significant losses and chronic pain due to complex health issues became constant companions. Yet at the same time, this would not be obvious to many as Dianna learned to adapt and stayed open to other joys in life. The Jesus of her childhood became her Comfort, Friend, and Saviour. She was fascinated by how interesting her granddaughters and their husbands and her great grandchildren (Kelsey, Felicity, Jordan and Ryan) are. Despite being sad to move from Grand Forks 2 1/2 years ago to Salmon Arm, she is happy she was able to spend more time with them. Dianna’s life was enriched by the new precious memories they built together during this time. Predeceased by her parents Fred and Florence Markin, son Steve Chursinoff, husband Peter Chursinoff, sisters and brothers - Molly Reiben, Polly Makaseiff, Mary Shelby, John Markin, Fred Markin, Helen Zmioff, and Bill (Mert) Markin. Survived by daughter Connie ( Joe) Kalmakov, daughter Nina ( Jim) Magee, granddaughters Shelly ( Richard) Hanson & children, Lynn ( Tim) Perepolkin & children. Special thanks to: Carol Dergousoff for her amazing support to Dianna and immediate family during the week of palliative care in Salmon Arm Hospital, to the nursing team at Salmon Arm Hospital, to Terry and Wade Nearing for their special visit to Salmon Arm, to other family members and friends who were able to pass over greetings and others who we knew were holding Dianna and family in prayer, special thanks to Mike Kanigan for officiating the funeral service. to Everett Baker and family at Grand Forks Funeral Home for your responsiveness and understanding of our needs, to the men involved in preparing the ground for the burial on Saturday July 6, 2013 at the USCC Sion Cemetery, and to the wonderful people, immediate and extended family members, friends and neighbours, who travelled to join us remembering Dianna on July 6, 2013.
While science has yet to determine the causes and cures for Alzheimer ’s ALZHEIMER SOCIETY disease and OF B.C. most dementias, research indicates that there are “modifiable risk factors” associated with the disease. These are risk factors associated with lifestyle that you can control, such as diet, exercise and your social environment. By adopting healthy lifestyle habits, you can help reduce the overall risk that you will develop dementia in old age. The good news is that these healthy habits are as easy and fun as learning a new dance style, eating delicious fresh fruits and vegetables and calling a friend.

Also one brother, Gerald Bedard, three sisters Shirley Fisher, Joyce Kirk and Bernadette Peterson. Oscar graduated from Grand Forks High School and went on to University of Victoria to complete teacher training. His first school was at Beaverdell Elementary.

Oscar moved to the Ministry of Education and spent the rest of his career as Executive Director and Assistant Deputy Minister of Education at Victoria. Those of us lucky enough to have come into contact with him always learned and were often inspired. His footprint is indeed large and he will live on in the hearts of all he touched. Celebration of Oscor’s life was held Friday, June 28, 2013 at Vernon, B.C.
Keep your mind active According to a study by the Neuroscience Institute at the University of California, Berkeley, people who keep their minds active throughout their lives exhibit lower levels of beta amyloid plaque, a protein in the brain that is linked to Alzheimer’s disease. In this study, this was especially true for people who were mentally active when they were younger and middle-aged. We know that as you age, there are many brain functions that do not have to decline, such as vocabulary, decision-making, creativity and the ability to learn. Keeping your mind sharp by learning a new language or a new dance step, or by challenging yourself with word and number puzzles or memory games increases the chance that you’ll retain your learning and creative ability into old age. Eat well and exercise regularly Research has shown that healthy lifestyle choices such as a nutritious diet and exercise are linked to a lower overall risk of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, but also that healthy choices are connected to fewer memory complaints across the board. The UCLA Longevity Centre published a study this year which showed that respondents aged 18 to 99 who engaged in just one healthy behaviour were 21 per cent less likely to report memory problems than those who didn’t engage in any healthy behaviours. This was good news for respondents in the senior age group, who reported a higher number of healthy habits than those in the younger respondent groups. Moderate exercise a few times per week, stress reduction and adequate sleep all play a part in maintaining a healthy body. A varied diet, which includes dark-coloured vegetables rich in antioxidants, such as spinach and blueberries, as well as foods with Omega 3 oils such as wild salmon, are recommended. Avoid or quit smoking to further reduce your risk. Care for your social connections Researchers at the VU University Medical Centre in Amsterdam looked at risk factors for dementia in 2,000 people aged 65 and above. They found those who felt lonely were more than twice as likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias than those who did not. Doctors are careful to advise that saying that loneliness is correlated with Alzheimer’s disease does not mean the same thing as saying that loneliness causes Alzheimer’s disease. However, healthy brains do need purpose, perspective, and social connections to thrive, which is why you need to care for your spirit, too. To improve your spirit, you need to believe in your ability to influence your own life and its outcomes. Even if you have a life-threatening illness, you still retain the ability to influence many things like your relationships with family and friends, and your ability to enjoy what you are doing in the present moment. Keeping a sense of humour and building solid friendships can help you nurture your spirit.

Rodney Allan Gustafson
It is with deep sadness that the family and close friends of Rodney Allan Gustafson surrounded him with love as he ended his battle with cancer and passed away on July 3, 2013 at the Kelowna Hospice House, at the age of 65 years. Rodney was born in Pioneer Mines on August 8, 1947. He and his family resided in the Lower Mainland area. After high school Rodney and a very good friend, Hilton Kate, travelled overseas through Europe and India. Shortly after that Rodney returned to England where he completed his registered nursing degree. He then returned to Canada and met his wife, Terrilyne. Together they owned and operated a nursing home in White Rock called Sunnyside Guest Home. He also worked as an RN at Surrey Memorial Hospital. In 1981 he and his wife moved to Christina Lake and purchased Totem Resort and the Time & Place Pub. Rodney also was a nurse at Trail Hospital and Grand Forks Hospital. In 2004 Rodney purchased Broadacres with the dream of providing the community with a beautiful and relaxing nursing home. He renovated it for 7 years and upon completion ran into numerous obstacles. He persevered and Broadacres has been open for nearly one year today. Rodney was a family man, foremost. The most important thing to him was his family, his wife, Terrilyne; his daughters: Terre and Kristi; sons: Matthew and Christopher; ad his five grandchildren: Elias, Livia, Nate, Hailey and Pearl. Rodney was a hard worker and a compassionate, caring and generous man. He was well-known amongst the community. He enjoyed get-togethers with his family and friends. He always said “the more the merrier” and the door was always open to family or friends passing through. He always had a kind word and the time for everyone. He enjoyed travelling when he could with his wife Terrilyne. He is predeceased by his father, Harold; his brother, Harley; and his mother-inlaw, Wanda. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 38 years, Terrilyne; his mother, Christine; his children: Terre (Jag), Kristi (Mike), Matthew (Christine) and Christopher (Nelinda); his siblings: Jim, Lois, Sharon, Barbara and Karen; his grandchildren: Elias, Livia, Nate, Hailey and Pearl; and his many dear friends. Thank you to all family and friends who have offered help and support during this most difficult time. A special thank you to all family and friends who visited him in his final days. He will be forever missed and forever in our hearts and memories.

Association at Lake to develop event management service z Local Submission CHRISTINA LAKE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
There is a new team in Christina Lake working with businesses and community organizations in order to build an event management package. This arose from discussions with Sandy Mark, the Christina Lake community co-ordinator, since the community hall and other venues are booked for weddings, family reunions and such for the whole summer. The idea was that it should be possible to provide an array of services to people coming to the lake for weddings and family reunions and once all the amenities are organized, it will be possible for Christina Lake venues to work together to host corporate events, conferences etc. Grace McGregor, Area C director for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, com-
✁
mented that, “This project will be good for the community’s economy and ensure that the great facilities in the community are optimized. The community businesses need to build up the ‘shoulder season.’ By providing event support ‘packages’ and promotional plans, the goal of increasing activity in the community will be facilitated.” The project is part of the Employment Program of British Columbia that is funded by the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia. The funding supports two people for 20 weeks to work full-time on the project. Lorraine Dick has many digital skills and has had training in event management. She is taking on much of the strategic work for the project, in particular assisting with creating the community events calendar and ensuring that all businesses have the information they need to promote themselves on line. Zak Eburne-Stoodley is there for so many events in the region as “sound man.” He
is now using his marketing and digital skills to carry out much of the research that the project requires. The team is rounded out with a Community Futures Boundary Job Options intern coming onto the team. Sam Jepsen will provide a month of computer support, assisting with the new Christina Lake website, a key to marketing the community’s opportunities. The event team is working from the heritage room in the community hall, which is a nice office space, with a view of a rose garden and the lake. But the team members will be very visible in the community checking out venues, encouraging participation, carrying out surveys and collecting photos and materials to support the event planning function. The team will report to the board of the Christina Lake Community Association at the end of September, providing advice and guidance that is hoped will lead to a new service for the Christina Lake community.
Fire dept. battles small blaze in hail storm A big hail storm hit Grand Forks on Monday afternoon (pictured) and there was no reported damage save for a fire on College Road. According to Kevin McKinnon, Grand Forks Fire Rescue assistant fire chief, lightning hit a tree during the storm and caused a small fire. McKinnon said firefighters with water backpacks, shovels and rakes attended and the fire was put out in short order. Karl Yu Photo
