Shuswap ranks high for fire danger By Barb Brouwer

market news staff

Summer is sizzling and so are conditions in local forests. Kayla Pepper, fire information officer with the Kamloops Fire Centre, said Tuesday that most of the Shuswap is now in the high danger zone. This is just one step down from extreme – the highest designation used by the centre to describe the risk of wildfire in the forests. Only a pocket around Seymour River is classified as moderate to low. While there have been no recent

wildfires in the Salmon Arm Zone, Pepper said continuing warm and dry weather conditions with the possibility of lightning are concerns. “The fire danger rating is definitely increasing and the wind hasn’t helped,” she says. And chances are the weather is not going to change much. According to an Environment Canada long-range forecast, there’s a 70 to 80 per cent chance that Salmon Arm will experience a hotter-than-normal summer. But, adds meteorologist Doug Lundquist, that also means there is a 20 to 30 per cent chance it won’t.

$ OIL, LUBE & FILTER All Makes ~ All Models No Appointment Necessary.

“Seasonal forecasts are unreliable, but that being said, since the mid ’80s, the climate in general has been warmer, so it’s more likely,” he says. “That, combined with general trends, makes it relatively reliable, but there’s no indication of how much higher.” Lundquist says averages don’t say a lot on their own. Rain plays an integral part and there is no useful data beyond two weeks when trying to predict rain. Noting there have always been cycles in weather, Lundquist says the ability to get a handle on how much higher or lower normals might be is an emerging science.

“Reliance on short-term forecasts is critical,” he says, noting the Shuswap experiences two summers – early, wet monsoons followed by mid to late summer when hot and dry conditions with thunderstorms become a critical issue in the forest. “It’s been dry since the beginning of July and it’s going to be the same for two weeks,” he says. “That tells me more, it means way more.” Pepper reminds residents and tourist alike that an open-burning prohibition is in place and that campfires, which are still permitted, must be no larger than a halfmetre by a half-metre and in a contained fire pit only.

REBUILD OR REMAN? Part 2 of a 2 part series If the technician performing a diagnosis doesn’t have the skill or experience with your car’s transmission, you might easily find yourself paying for a new transmission… whether you need one or not. If the reman transmission still doesn’t work, the reman companies have technicians on staff to help the shop work through the actual problem. So your car will probably shift just fine when you get it back. The only question then is: Was the problem you had really in the transmission? Or did you pay for a transmission you didn’t really need? Only a qualified, professional transmission technician can diagnose your car reliably, and tell you for certain whether you actually need a rebuilt transmission, or whether a much less expensive repair will take care of the problem.

Co-operation earns kudos Attention Salmon Arm, Chase and Area

White Lake: Group works with BC Timber Sales to develop logging plans that include community input. By Barb Brouwer

MARKET NEWS STAFF

There’s more than enough praise to share in White Lake. Bryon Every, president of the White Lake Residents Association is giving kudos to the local BC Timber Sales (BCTS) office for working with the community in establishing harvesting plans. And, from his office in Vernon, BCTS regional supervisor Colin Johnston is crediting the association for making the system work as it should. BCTS and association members met on May 9 to discuss new logging plans, plans that raised environmental and visual concerns among members of the community. Chief among them was a cut block proposed for the east end of the lake adjacent to the provincial park. Every says the block was also near Cedar

Creek and a troutspawning ground. As well, BCTS plans called for a new road to go through the proposed cutback. “What they’ve done is they’re not gonna go within 300 feet of the stream,” said an elated Every last Thursday, noting BCTS addressed concerns by taking a sizeable chunk

better viewscape. For Every, who has 32 years working in the forest industry, the fact BCTS acknowledged community concerns by planning several small cut blocks instead of large clear-cuts is also appreciated. “The referral process is working, it doesn’t get any better,” he said. But Every was quick

of land out of the plan and agreed to abandon plans to build a new road. “I don’t know if people know how valuable that is and it should be hugely appreciated.” BCTS also agreed to keep more trees in each cut block to maintain a

to point out this was not a negotiated deal, but rather a case of a community’s concerns being heard and accommodated. “We try to pick the legitimate stuff,” he says, noting the group is not against logging. “We really ap-

preciate the fact that BCTS have agreed they’ll always come to us to look at their plans.” Glad that his office is earning praise instead of oft-heard criticism, BCTS North Zone woodlands supervisor Colin Johnston handed out kudos of his own. “We weren’t able to address all of them, but some of them were legitimate concerns,” he said. “My hat is off to that community group that was willing to work with us to come up with a better solution.” Every meanwhile, says the White Lake Residents Association that was resurrected in 2012 to deal with another logging plan, is hoping to grow the 33-member group and organize some fun community events.

Uptown Askew’s to re-do parking lot By Martha Wickett

Market news staff

If you’ve had problems navigating the Uptown Askew’s parking lot, your troubles could be coming to an end. Askew’s Uptown Shopping Centre and Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union have applied to the city to amend their site and landscaping plans in order to reconfigure the existing parking lot and drive aisles. A letter to

the city’s planning department from architect Michael Burton-Brown explains that a market research report carried out for Askew’s found one of the top reasons people were not coming to Askew’s Uptown was the parking lot, with many complaints including people driving over curbs and getting frustrated trying to back out. He also writes that SASCU, which hasn’t

opened yet, has requested the parking lot and ATM location be redone. Changes planned will include: expanding the parking lot to the north; removing drainage swales and landscaping in the centre of the existing parking lot; and relocating the maple trees along the northern edge of the parking lot. A ‘no-build’ covenant registered on the lot will be triggered by

the parking lot expansion, so frontage works and services for the east half of 25 Street NE must be completed. Planning staff report that while they have some concerns with the loss of the two drainage swales with their trees and shrubs, overall “the design of the two main buildings along with surrounding site, landscaping and plazas are and will be first class when completed.”

one-of-a-kind businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of this place. 4. Reduce environmental impact: Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation. This generally means contributing less to sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and pollution. 5. Create more good jobs: Small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and in our community, providing the most jobs to residents. 6. Get better service: Local businesses often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers. 7. Invest in community: Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community. They are less likely to leave and are more invested in the community’s future.

8. Put your taxes to good use: Local businesses in town centers require comparatively little infrastructure investment and make more efficient use of public services. 9. Buy what you want, not what someone wants you to buy: A marketplace of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long-term. Small businesses select products based not on a national sales plan but on their own interests and the needs of their local customers. This guarantees a much broader range of product choices. 10. Encourage local prosperity: Economic research shows that in an increasingly homogenized world, entrepreneurs and skilled workers are more likely to invest and settle in communities that preserve their one-of-akind businesses and distinctive character.

What began as a response to the deleterious impact of the mountain pine beetle has become a voice for economic and social prosperity for rural British Columbia. Since 2007, the Southern Interior Beetle Action Coalition (SIBAC), along with similar coalitions representing the Omenica and Cariboo-Chilcotin regions, has been working to mitigate the impact of the mountain pine beetle throughout the Interior. Collectively, these organizations have been working to address the plight of rural B.C. in the aftermath of the beetle epidemic which, along with market forces, have had a decimating impact on once-thriving, forestrydependent communities. The Rural BC Project is their child, a strategy designed to help return prosperity to the “Heartland.” In a presentation to Sicamous council, SIBAC chair Rhona Martin, the rural Sicamous-Malakwa Area E director with the Columbia Shuswap Regional District, spoke to some of the catalysts behind the Rural BC Project, as well as some of the desired outcomes. “I think what we’ve

learned, in all of our work, is that it doesn’t matter where you are in rural B.C., we’re all suffering the same dire fate,” said Martin. “We’re all losing our people, we’re all losing our young people especially, we’re all losing our services, and what we’re trying to encourage government to do is reinvest in rural B.C.” One of the things the coalitions would like to see is a provincial strategy that would provide a rural focus among the province’s ministries, so that whenever a decision is made, the impact to rural commu-

the majority of the benefit. Martin explained how this results in services being centralized in those cities. “What we have seen as people who live in rural B.C. is that as they bring services closer to the larger communities, people move from our rural areas into the larger community so they can continue to get services,” said Martin. “And it doesn’t matter if you’re old or young, healthy or not, these services are being withdrawn and we’re losing all kinds of people.” Martin said the province has been support-

“Who better understands our communities than the people that actually live there?” - Rhona Martin, SIBAC chair

nities is taken into consideration. They also would like the province to create a ministry specifically for rural B.C. In defining “rural,” Rural BC Project discussion paper notes most rural residents of the province do not regard larger regional cities such as Nanaimo, Kelowna, Kamloops and Prince George as rural, and that when the province does invest in rural B.C., it is typically these cities that see

ive of the coalitions and their work, and that the Ministry of Jobs and Tourism is assisting with the Rural BC Project. This is a project that could make life in rural British Columbia better for all of us,” said Martin, who later emphasized that the focus of the project is both economic and social development. She noted the Tumbler Ridge area as an example where economic growth is ham-

pering social development. “For example, if you have children playing hockey, you can’t ever host a hockey tournament, because the motels are all full of workers,” said Martin. “One person’s wealth, it’s great for certain segments of the community, but it impacts other segments of the community. What we want to see is communities healthy for all ages and all types of people. It’s not an easy fix.” Martin directed council to SIBAC’s website at www.sibacs. com, where there is more information on the Rural BC project, as well as a video featuring Martin, SIBAC director and Neskonlith Indian Band Chief Judy Wilson and SIBAC vice-chair and Regional District of Kootenay Boundary director Grace McGregor. They discuss what rural British Columbia has to offer and its importance to the province as a whole. Martin says that whatever the province does to address the issue of disparity between rural B.C. and the larger urban areas, the three coalitions wish to be a part of the solution because. “Who better understands our communities than the people that actually live there?” said Martin.

Marijuana vote not a sure thing

British Columbia is famed around the world for the quality of its marijuana, and people here buy, sell, grow and consume it mostly without fear of serious consequences from the law. Elections B.C. has approved Dana Larsen’s drive for a referendum on decriminalizing marijuana possession – a reminder that pot remains illegal and, unlike our neighbours in Washington state, our province and country remain far away from laws that take drug profits away from criminals. Any move to shake up drug laws in this country is seen as a good thing. But pot smokers shouldn’t have a victory toke yet – it’s not clear this referendum will even get off the ground and, if it does, if the province will give it the time of day. Similar to the ultimately successful drive to oust the HST, Larsen and his supporters need to collect signatures of at least 10 per cent of elected voters in each of the 85 ridings. The gross mishandling of the HST by the Liberals made it easy to whip up voter anger, and voter turnout. Many people in B.C. may support laxer laws around possessing marijuana (or buying, selling and growing for that matter). But the issue is unlikely to inflame the same passions as a government perceived as dishonest, and shifting tax burdens from business to citizens. If the referendum were to succeed anywhere in Canada, it should be B.C. But even if Larsen and his allies win, the victory will be non-binding and symbolic – the B.C. Liberals don’t have to support the vote. B.C. may have a permissive pot culture, but this isn’t the U.S. where, for better or worse, voter propositions are binding. And unlike Canadian provinces, states like Washington and Colorado will defy their federal government based on the will of the people. -Victoria News

Fishing with the family... priceless You know what I would like to see? I’d like to see a MasterCard ad where they show the cost of a couple of rods and reels and some lures, and then have the voice-over say, “and time spent fishing with your family … priceless.” I will always be grateful to my father for the time he spent fishing with us kids - for all the summer afternoons he spent sitting with us out in a boat on a lake somewhere. Back then it didn’t really cost him very much to take us fishing. It still doesn’t cost all that much. Nowadays you can buy a decent quality rod and reel outfit for around $60 to $75 that will cast properly, handle a fair-sized fish and stand up to years of use. When you’re buying a rod and reel for a child, regardless of their age, buy something that you would be willing to use yourself. There is no point in buying something that won’t work properly. If they can’t cast with it, they won’t catch fish and it won’t take long for

The GreaT OuTdOOrs James Murray them to lose interest in the whole thing. Once they are into the whole fishing thing, it won’t take long for them to also want their own tackle box. A simple plastic, two-tray box doesn’t cost a lot, and, there is a real sense of pride in ownership that comes with having your own tackle box with all your own lures in it. I probably still have mine somewhere, and it’s a good, 55 or so years old now. If money is an issue, you can often find decent rods and reels at yard sales. Just make sure the rod is intact and the reel is in proper working order. Then all you’ll have to do is re-spool the reel with fresh line.

Once you have attained a rod and reel set up for your child (children), and before you ever head out fishing, take them out to a field somewhere and let them practise casting until they get the hang of it. The mantra for teaching a child to cast is “finger, line, bail – cast, release.” To start out, have them slip their first finger under the line and lift it up so that the line is pressed between their finger and the cork of the reel seat. With their free hand, they should get use to cocking the bail back (that loopy thing-a-ma-jig that helps wind in the line) before arching the rod forward through the air. Finger, line, bail. Then explain that the key to casting is releasing their finger from the line just before the rod tip points to where they want the line and lure to go. Finger, line, bail – cast, release. It will take a little practice but, before long, they’ll get the hang of it. And then you will all be ready to head out. The only other things you’ll need to get for each

child is a life-jacket, a widebrimmed hat and maybe a cool pair of polarized sunglasses. Whether fishing from a boat or along the banks of a stream, each child should have and, most importantly, wear a weightand size-appropriate lifejacket. It is also important to keep in mind, when taking kids fishing, that all they’re really interested in is catching fish. Quantity, not quality, that’s the name of the game. When you’re planning your first couple of fishing trips with kids, it is a good idea to head for some place relatively close to home - less travelling time and more fishing time. Like I said, most kids would rather catch a whole mess of small fish than one big one. And above all else, be prepared to spend most, if not all, of your time untangling lines and putting worms on the end of hooks. And remember, time spent fishing with your family … that really is priceless.

South ShuSwap Emergency crews hone skills By Cavelle Layes

market news staff

Shuswap training officer Jason PufferHill stood alone in the quiet parking lot, radio in hand. The silence, however, was soon broken as truck after truck rolled into the Carlin Elementary School parking lot. There was a frenzy of activity as firefighters set up water tanks and positioned their crew. The only thing missing was the fire. Tappen and Shuswap volunteer fire departments and the South Shuswap First Responders gathered Tuesday for a rare chance to collaborate. In the event that there was ever a large fire in the area, both departments would likely be called in as backup, ex-

plained PufferHill. This event gave all crew members a chance to become familiar with different routines, equipment and members in their neighboring departments. PufferHill said the intent is that if the situation ever arises, practices like this would minimize confusion and ensure a more effective response. A mock structure fire was set up at Carlin Elementary. According to the scenario, a janitor had been cleaning when he discovered smoke billowing out of the wood shop. Crews on scene rescued the janitor who was suffering from smoke inhalation. Once in a safe area, the first responders administered first aid. The Carlin site is unique as there are

Risling said, explaining that what made it unique was not only the calibre of talent, but the large coverage area. It broadcast over 50,000 watts, reaching across North America and, at times, into Europe. Producer Lori Risling wrote the show based on the radio show’s premise. The actors have studied and researched the sounds, moves, actions and tiniest characteristics of the artists

Continued from pg 7 Each artist is presented as they would have been when they appeared on the Hayride, with a young Elvis just breaking into the scene at 19-years old. “Anybody who was anybody would appear on the Hayride during their young career,” Risling said. The cast also pays special attention to the sound, matching their voices to that of the oldstyle radio or television programming. The show’s Elvis, Adam Fitzpatrick will be heading off to compete in the World Ultimate Elvis Competition in Memphis, Tenn. Fitzpatrick is already celebrated as one of the best to put on the signature white suit. His attention to detail is amazing, but Gil said it’s that ‘it’ factor that makes him so good. “You can’t quite put your finger on exactly what it is,” he said, “but you just know he has it.” The show has played to many sold-out audiences across Western Canada – including what Gil calls an amazing February show in Chilliwack that filled all 584 seats, with another 123 on a waiting list. The curtain opens at 7:30 at Shuswap Lake Estates. Tickets at $35 can be purchased from Shuswap Lake Estates, Touch-a-Texas in the Mall at Piccadilly or Wearabouts on Alexander Street.

They might be pretty, but those plants are aggressive. The Shuswap is home to B.C.’s most recent committee devoted to preventing the spread of invasive species. The Columbia Shuswap Invasive Species Society (CSISS) is the newest regional non-profit committee in B.C. to be established in partnership with the Invasive Species Council of B.C. to educate people on the risk they pose to ecosystems. Invasive species threaten ecosystems and affect biodiversity by displacing native species that sustain wildlife. Invasive hitch-hikers are enabled by boaters who fail to take necessary precautions. The ISCBC is pushing the provincial Clean, Drain, Dry program in the Shuswap to encourage boaters to thoroughly clean their boat and equipment to prevent invasive aquatic species from invading the water system. “You’ve got large water systems heavily influenced by people,” Gail Wallin, ISCBC executive director, said of the Shuswap. “Most invasive species, including invasive plants, are spread by people.” Last July the Shuswap dealt with a scare when zebra mussels were found on a boat brought up from Nevada. The boat had been in the lake for some time before it was removed and analyzed and the mussel larvae was determined to be dead. “That was a bit of a reassurance at that point that there hadn’t been anything introduced,” said Phillip Baskin, ISCBC Shuswap aquatics liaison, “but from what I understand the Ministry of Environment is still monitoring that area by doing sampling for larvae to see if anything

CAN CHIROPRACTIC HELP ME?

We are often asked: “What’s the best way of finding out whether a Dr. of Chiropractic can help my problem?” We believe the answer can be found in a complete consultation and examination.

At 3 years old Matteo complained of earaches, had slow speech development and was prone to temper tantrums. After just a few weeks of treatment we saw a marked improvement in Matteo’s whole life. He sleeps better, he eats better and has had a huge increase in his vocabulary. Lori Grdina Since I commenced treatment I have been totally clear of headaches and my ability to walk has increased many folds. I am glad that I made the decision to seek the assistance of a chiropractor and would suggest to others to give it a try. Dr. Darren has certainly helped me and improved my state of health quite dramatically. Mr. Wilson Bruce

Preparing for summer vacation requires planning and creativity. It can also be a source of stress. Among the many tasks involved, one that is very important yet occasionally neglected is planning for elderly care while you are away. Many families provide support to elderly family members such as parents or grandparents and also elderly friends and neighbors. This support is crucial in allowing seniors to stay independent in their own homes and is particularly important if your elderly friend or family member has experienced a recent change in health or lifestyle. 1) Communication systems are working – does your senior have access to phones, email, visitors. Do they have emergency numbers and people to contact. 2) Prescriptions are filled –

check that medications are up to date and enough supply is on hand. Take a list of meds with you so you can advise from afar if necessary. 3) Transportation – ensure that vehicles are working well. If drivers are required, pre-arrange for transportation to medical appointments, social events and recreational activities. 4) Air conditioners are working – ensure that all utility bills are up to date or prepaid. Fans, air-conditioners, cool in-door areas and shaded outdoor areas should be available. 5) Food preparation – Does your senior require a special meal plan? Make food arrangements for shopping, preparation, storage. Clear out the fridge prior to leaving and date any “left-overs” so they are consumed in a timely manner.

6) Arrange for visitors – Select trusted, familiar friends to visit your senior. Ask them to check in, keep them company and assist them with errands. 7) Clean up – Arrange for housekeeping assistance. Laundry, vacuuming, lawn cutting, plant watering and general tidy up. Be sure that items are arranged in familiar patterns for easy access. A popular option for vacation planning is Respite Care. Respite care has many advantages. 1) A professional staff is on hand 24/7 to attend to your elderly needs. 2) There are many different people to socialize and meet. Loneliness is minimized. Events and activities can be arranged for groups or individuals. Usually there is lot’s to do. 3) It’s a vacation for your

elderly too. Every one get’s a break and many facilities are like all-inclusive resorts so all services are available for one convenient price. 4) Safety – Lot’s of designed features to ensure health and safety for all residents means peace of mind while on vacation. 5) A transitional process. Many elderly are considering permanent changes to Independent Living residences and a short vacation can serve as a way to try new housing arrangements. Written by Byron Miki Byron is a consultant for the Arbor Lodge Independent Living Residence located in Salmon Arm, British Columbia.

Shuswap Market News Friday, July 19, 2013

ShuSwap paSSion Jim Cooperman Some of my favourite childhood memories stem from the three summers I spent at camp in Northern Minnesota, and those experiences contributed to my decision to live a rural lifestyle in the backwoods of British Columbia. Given the current social problems of childhood obesity and what is termed the “nature deficit disorder,” it would be wonderful if more children could experience the joys of summer camps. Here in the Shuswap there are seven summer camps, with most of them run by faithbased organizations. In 1955, Dr. Hartly Grafton purchased a 46-acre property in Magna Bay on behalf of the Boy Scouts and the Kamloops United Church, which became Camp Grafton. At first there were boys’ camps, then some girls’ camps, and finally coed camps were established. Activities at Camp Grafton include canoeing, hiking, environmental education, swimming and leadership training. Last year, 7.5 acres of the property was subdivided off and is now for sale to raise funds for a major renovation and building

project for the United Church in Kamloops that includes low-income housing. Far out in Eagle Bay, the Christian and Missionary Churches of the Southern Interior operate the Eagle Bay Camp on 23 acres of lakefront property purchased in 1982 from Frank and Marion Adley, who provided the property for a fraction of its market value. The camp offers full days of adventure and fun for over 200 campers and staff each week with activities that include kayaking, climbing, paintball, archery and field sports. The Sunnybrae Bible Camp is a familiar sight along the highway to Herald Park. The 30-acre facility is a Fellowship Baptist camp that offers a diverse schedule that includes camps for kids, for teens and for families, as well as special camps for horsemanship and wakeboarding. Many of these camps are oriented to equestrian training and horse management. The largest camp in the Shuswap is the 72acre Gardom Lake Bible Camp and Retreat Centre, operated by the Mennonite Brethren Conference of BC, where the focus is on personal growth in an outdoor environment with plenty of adventure, fun and friendship making. It offers regular camp programs for ages 6 to 16, as well as what they call Encounter where the campers live in tree houses and tents, cook over open fires, and learn survival

skills. Paintball is a popular activity at the camp, as is trail riding and whitewater rafting on the Adams River. It is boat access only at the MacKenzie Camp on Mabel Lake that is owned by the United Church of Canada and operated by a BC Camping Association Society of volunteers. Camping activities include canoeing and kayaking, low ropes, archery, arts and crafts, drama, hiking, fishing and environmental education. Special features of the camp are the one or two night canoe trips on Mabel Lake, and the leadership training courses. The summer program brings 450 campers and, during the spring and fall, there are school programs and retreats that bring in an additional 300 young people. The only non-secular kids camp in the Shuswap is the Girl Guide facility on Adams Lake, just south of Bush Creek, called Camp Selhowtkan. This is a semi-wilderness camp with no electricity and just four buildings that can accommodate up to 36 campers, plus four camping sites closer to the lake. Campers spend much of the time on the lake canoeing, kayaking and swim-

ming. There are also side trips to Roderick Haig-Brown Park for hiking and whitewater canoeing on the Adams River. There is one other small summer camp located at the far end of White Lake called the Cedar Creek Camp. It is operated by People in Motion and is rented to groups of up to 35 people and priority is given to people with disabilities. There are just two rustic cabins and there is no running water or electricity. A new sciencebased day camp for youngsters from grade one to six called Shuswap Wild Wonders offers three programs in July. The youngest campers spend three days in the White Lake region learning about local flora and fauna and gaining team-building, problem solving and leadership skills. The four-day camp for the grade 3-4 students includes one overnight tenting experience in the Larch Hills. Instructors for the camps include horticulturists, biologists, artists and teachers, and activities focus on hiking many of the routes established by the Shuswap Trail Alliance and learning about the Shuswap watershed.

Living WEll As a community dietitian, I am often asked about the latest trends and diets. If you could ask your body what it needs to feel good and enjoy life – I think this is what it would tell you. Eat regularly. Whether you are working, hiking or travelling, your body needs fuel (food) every three to four hours to support what you are doing. Without regular fuel the body’s metabolism slows down and this can result in weight gain. Too little food can cause weight gain and so can consuming only one or two bigger meals a day. Spreading your food intake through the day and eating balanced meals will let your body perform it’s best. Don’t cut out the good carbohydrates. Do you ever feel your energy levels dropping in the afternoon or during an activity? It might be due to a lack of carbohydrates (often called carbs) to balance your meal. Many diets limit this group which is an important team player that supplies the body with fuel and vitamins. Check out Canada’s Food Guide to learn more about developing a balanced plan for you. Keep sugary drinks and treats in check. These choices have the sole purpose of pure

pleasure but too much fun, too often can add up faster than you think. A small French vanilla cappuccino can pack 10 teaspoons of sugar and two teaspoons of fat; a 591 ml bottle of pop has 17 teaspoons of sugar. It’s ok to enjoy the odd sweet treat but be sure to check in with yourself and ask how often and what else do I enjoy that might be better for me. Get a move on. Your body loves to move whenever it gets a chance. Try planning activities based on seasons to provide a variety of fun activities that can keep you moving throughout the year. Activity has added benefits like taking the time to clear our minds, connecting with friends and family and challenging ourselves by trying something new. Enjoy real fresh food. Nothing beats home cooked, real, locally grown food. This is the perfect time of year to enjoy fresh picked colourful produce and herbs from your garden or local food markets. If your body could talk to you right now I think it would say, “don’t worry so much about the trends and the fads – feed me regularly with good, fresh, tasty food and be sure to keep me moving … and by the way thanks for listening.” - Tatjana Bates is a community nutritionist with Interior Health.

Progress Report 2013

Downtown core still growing steadily By Leah Blain The growth of urban sprawl can have detrimental effects in downtown centres, but Salmon Arm’s downtown core is not only holding its own but thriving alongside development to the east and west of the city centre. Local developer Bill Laird, who owns several buildings in the downtown core, has been upgrading his properties resulting in an impressive rejuvenation. Laird, who has lived in Salmon Arm since 1969, says he is motivated by the city itself. “It’s worth it; the town is worth looking after.” Laird says the boundaries of the city’s centre plays an important role in its viability. “The highway and McGuire Lake and the railway have kept us compact. We’re more interesting than a com-

munity that can spread out. It’s very walkable. We all enjoy that and the tourists enjoy it.” The city has many assets that, when added together, make it such a desirable place to live and do business, he says. Business people have the advantage of having talented local trades people to hire. “We have good subtrades we can draw from. A person can have a plan but without trades, you can’t expedite it. We have excellent trades.” Laird says residents can expect to see new businesses coming soon in the downtown core. “There’s probably going to be three new tenants downtown. One is going to be a new retail business, one is existing from outside the downtown core that is moving downtown and one is going to be a full service restaurant. They will be

Friday, July 19, 2013 Shuswap Market News

Progress Report 2013 The Voice of the Shuswap rings out loud and clear By Leah Blain On December 12, 2012, the Voice of the Shuswap, CKVS - FM 93.7, was officially up and running. Since then the number of volunteers has grown as well as the number of residents and businesses who are tuning in to the Shuswap’s community radio station. “We’re streaming over the internet as well, now we’re live around the world. We have a map with pins where people are listening. There are people in Torino, Italy and eastern Canada who are listening,” says Jeanette Clement, Office Coordinator/Music Librarian. Community radio stations are a third model of radio broadcasting, differing from commercial and public broadcasting. It provides an opportunity

for individuals, groups and communities to tell their own stories, share their experiences and become creators and contributors of media. “Community radio attends to the special needs of the community. It’s such a positive thing,” says Marketing and Promotion Director Warren Welter. “The community radio station is a positive gift with endless opportunities for connectivity.” Welter points out there are several ways in which a community station promotes community engagement, including encouraging local debate, volunteerism, community building by supporting and raising the profile of local clubs, community groups, local musicians, businesses, artisans, and experts. “I’ll steal a quote

from Rollo May, ‘Communication - the human connection - is the key to personal and career success.” Many of the local program hosts are local musicians who discuss and play a variety of musical genres. Ted Crouch’s Acoustic Avenue presents new music of emerging and established artists across all genres; Blu Hopkin’s Blu Jay Cafe features Canadian acoustic music and interviews from near and far; and Richard Sevigny’s Live in the Shuswap showcases the best in local concerts by local performers. Other programs such as Wendy Byhre’s Authentically Yours in the Shuswap focuses on local arts and culture, and Steven DeBoer’s and Curtis Novak’s program, Your Money, offers a common sense approach to money

questions and issues. Welter points out that some of the program hosts like Trevor Schaafsma, Brent Ross and Leah Shaw are professional broadcasters while others like Dylan Dodge are

honing their talents to get into the broadcasting world. The community radio station is about bringing the community together and giving everyone a voice, says Welter.

“The station is available for people to come and have their voice heard. We are fully embracing the opportunity to put all the auspices of creative wealth that’s here in music, storytelling

and information. A community is judged on how well they take care of themselves, and community radio is one more way of galvanizing the connection of the residents.”

Progress Report 2013

Growth encouraging for local business leaders

Dave Andrews

By Leah Blain With all the growth and improvements in Salmon Arm, Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce general manager Dave Andrews says there is a general optimism within the local business and industrial sectors. “There is a fair amount of growth and it’s encouraging to see. The changes that are happening west of town - now we know it’s going to be Walmart - I think it’s going to be good for the community. It’s

going to increase the options we have and it will ultimately benefit all the small operators in the area.” Andrews says Walmart will be another draw, but all of Salmon Arm’s assets play an equally important role. “Everything from changes in the downtown to road improvements to the Silverbacks, and that whole incredible facility (the Shaw Centre), the climate, the walk to the wharf and the incredible sunsets.” Andrews says there is much more to Salmon Arm than meets the eye, particularly the city’s ‘best kept secret’, the industrial park. He points out that USNR (formerly Newnes) is a world leader in wood processing technology and IC Urethane Products Inc. (which produces anti-fatigue

mats used at work stations) “is producing a huge percentage of the world market.” “That’s the thing that Salmon Arm has going for it. People are so inventive and it’s not like they’re doing the same that that others are doing down the street. They have the ability to look ahead and come up with something different.” That talent isn’t limited to the businesses in the industrial park; the downtown has its unique charm because of the impressive variety of businesses. Joanne Mason, Manager of Downtown Salmon Arm, says local businesses are experiencing ‘positive growth.‘ She says while groups such as Shuswap Tourism, the Salmon Arm Economic Development Society, the Salmon Arm Cham-

ber, Salmon Arm Downtown, and Shuswap Construction Industry Professionals work collaboratively towards marketing, branding and ongoing economic efforts, the store owners themselves are instrumental in bringing in regional business. “We have exceptional businesses doing exceptional things. They are capturing their own niche market and bringing people back into our community. People come here from Kelowna, Vernon, and Kamloops and that speaks to the brilliance of the businesses.” Mason adds that an international food blogger was recently in the Shuswap and was ‘singing the praises’ of the Shuswap Pie Company. “There are so many of those amazing little shops in our com-

munity. Visitors love our downtown and the service, the whole experience.” As the downtown stores are reporting increasing traffic, the companies in the industrial park are also reporting increased business, says Salmon Arm Economic Development Manager Lana Fitt. “We’ve been meeting with businesses and they’re projecting positive indicators. We’re seeing businesses expand...We’re on the cusp of serious growth in our community.”

moting it for an office building site.” Of all Salmon Arm’s assets, Laird says it really is the people who have continually promoted its progress and have made the city such a desirable place to live. “There is no community more generous than we are when raising money for community projects.” Salmon Arm has the amenities and services for young families, seniors, professionals, businesses owners and tourists, and Laird says the only thing lacking is, perhaps, some self-

promotion that ties it all together. “One thing I think we should do as a community is to establish a focus for our town. By focus I mean what is it our town should be know for? It would be wonderful to promote the town by advertising all these services and build on our strengths.” Laird says these strengths will ensure the city’s health and vitality. “My forecast for the downtown core - I’m a great believer in slow and steady and we’re doing better than that. I see steady growth for the future.”

Agriculture is extremely sensitive to climate change. Higher temperatures reduce crop yields while causing weeds and parasites to proliferate. Changes in precipitation trends increase the probability of poor harvests in the short term and lower production in the long term. According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), a variation of 1 to 2 degrees Celsius leads to a relative increase in yields, alleviates limits caused by cold temperatures, and contributes to the seasonal increase of heat stress in livestock. A variation of 2 to 3 degrees Celsius leads

Increasing access for students

From the hIll colin Mayes Earlier this year, your government in Ottawa took steps to increase accessibility and affordability of postsecondary education. More than $10 billion dollars annually is invested by your government in support of postsecondary education, including the Canada Student Loans and Can-

ada Student Grants. In 2011-12 school years, approximately 450,000 post-secondary students received 2.4 billion dollars in Canada Student Loans and more than 350,000 students received 647 million dollars in Canada Student Grants. The threshold for eligibility has been lowered for 2013-14, which will result in more students having access to follow their educational dreams. The Canada Job Grant funding will help students who are pursuing an apprenticeship program or skills training program. This includes funding for 5,000 interns in various careers choices.

Your government is focused on giving Canadians every opportunity to prepare themselves for the job market. I believe that empowering citizens to take care of themselves is the role of government. Canada has proven that we can compete with the world through innovation supported by a skilled labour force. Today, we are leading the G7 in job creation and we are positioned financially to move to an even stronger, more prosperous economy. We need to ensure every Canadian has the opportunity to be part of this positive future. This is good news to the Grads of 2013!

Shuswap Rowing & Paddling (SARP)

SportS Heading off to Alberta The West Kelowna Warriors have traded defenceman Dustin Cave to the Calgary Mustangs (AJHL) for future considerations. At 5’11, and 203 pounds, Cave played a hard-nosed style of defense. Over two years he accumulated 108 games played, one goal and 15 assists. The Tappen native was traded from the Salmon Arm SilverBacks in 2011, and is a player the organization won’t easily forget. “Cave is a great all around person,” says Warriors head coach/ GM Rylan Ferster. “He represented the program with class 100 percent of the time. His work in the community was amongst the best I had ever been a part of. We want to thank him for his contributions to

the program, and wish him well with his new team.” ‘Caver,’ as fans knew him, was a favourite amongst the youth in the community for all his hard work at local schools, and especially with the Okanagan Boys & Girls Club. Cave spearheaded a program called ‘Caver’z Kidz.’ Each Tuesday he played floor hockey with a group of kids at the local Boys & Girls Club. At every game kids from the club were invited to sit in the Caver’z Kidz zone, and were treated with treats, special T-shirt’s, and got to meet Cave post-game. Not only did Cave find sponsorship of season tickets for all of his Caver’z Kidz, he

Lacrosse teams take on province The Shuswap Outlaws Peewee Lacrosse team performed with heart at the Provincials in Kamloops on July 11, in an outing characterized by close contests. The team was missing a few players, but they had a couple of novice-age players moved up to their team so they could still compete. The squad fit the criteria for a C-level team because most of the team was brand

new. However, they picked it up really fast and won the rights to go into the B level. The first game was Friday versus Delta. The score was back and forth the whole game, but Shuswap lost in the dying minutes by a score of 6-5. The team faced Campbell River later that day. With only 11 players on a larger Olympic-size floor on Mac Island, the team simply ran out of legs,

losing 7-1. On Saturday morning, Shuswap played Burnaby. Again, another tight game, but the final score was 6-5 in Burnaby’s favour. Salmon Arm’s Chad Phillips was chosen coach of the B tournament. The recipient, who is selected by the other B coaches, must exhibit qualities such as sportsmanship and positive coaching. Salmon Arm’s Midget coach, Steve Sagh, has

also been awarded this honour. On July 18, the Shuswap Outlaws Bantam Lacrosse Team travels to Delta to take part in Provincials. This year, the Bantam, Peewee and Midget Lacrosse teams all won their zone championships. The Midget B Outlaws travel to Port Coquitlam on the July 26 weekend to attempt to reclaim the provincial title Shuswap won in 2012.

Chase Successful salmon celebration It was a day of celebration and education for the salmon in the Shuswap. The sun was shining Saturday in Roderick Haig-Brown Park when the Second Annual Summer Salmon Festival kicked off. The event, hosted by the Adams River Salmon Society, was once again, a great success. Riders of all ages took part in the bicycle parade, donning creative costumes inspired by the local environment and fictional literary characters. The creativity of these participants was not overlooked, as many were rewarded with prizes generously

donated by local businesses. The entertainment continued throughout the day and included some captivating storytelling by Ralph McBryan, who shared the tales of Coyote and Buffalo. Later, the children were given the chance to sharpen their crayons and let their creative juices flow during a friendly colouring contest. The event captured the images of some of the park’s local wildlife. Activities concluded with an informative demonstration of fly fishing by Cameron Coates, who is a pas-

After two days of intense competition and excitement, the Pritchard Rodeo wrapped up Sunday. In the Junior Steer Riding event, Blaine Manuel of Williams Lake could not be beat, taking first place out of 21 competitors. Bull riding saw Marlon Williams of Mt. Currie come out on top, beating 16 other competitors to take home the pot. The steer wrestlers worked hard for their money and for Cohord Mason of Kamloops that work paid off, making him first out of 13 competitors. The Pritchard Rodeo’s Tie Down Roping event saw 22 competitors try their luck. Clayton Honeyourn of Quesnel was named the top cowboy in this event with Steve Lloyd, also from Quesnel, taking second and hometown boy Jake

HAFI adapts homes for B.C. seniors and people with disabilities

Brenda has always been an active woman. However, recent health issues including osteoarthritis in her left knee and losing kidney function have slowed her down. Her mobility is limited and she is now on dialysis three days a week. To adjust to her changed circumstances, Brenda sought help with her daily living activities. Part of that help came from the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program offered through BC Housing. Launched in January 2012, the HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently. Brenda applied for a new walk-in bathtub because she couldn’t safely get out of the tub on her own. Walk-in tubs include additional safety measures such as anti-slip floors, grab bars, and a very low step in. Home adaptations may also include handrails in halls or stairs, ramps for

easier access, easy-to-reach work and storage areas in the kitchen, lever handles on doors or faucets, walk-in showers, and bathtub grab bars and seats. Brenda is a strong advocate for the program and has even shared HAFI brochures with nurses in the renal unit where she undergoes dialysis. If you or someone you know is having difficulty performing day-to-day activities safely and independently – the HAFI program may be able to help. Since the program began, more than 300 households completed renovations with HAFI financial assistance, making it possible for seniors and people with disabilities to continue to live in the safety and comfort of their home.

My life on earth was very good, As earthly lives can go, But paradise is so much more Than anyone can know… My heart is filled with happiness, And sweet rejoicing too.

SIKORA, RUDY (Rudolph Steve) We are sad to announce that the earthly journey of Rudy Sikora ended on July 7, 2013 at the age of 90 years. Rudy was born in Atwater, SK on January 9, 1923 to Steve and Ida (Nagy) Sikora. He grew up and helped on the family farm in Willowbrook, SK until 1947 when the family moved to Abbotsford, BC. Rudy had a talent for mechanics and held several jobs in the field -- first in Abbotsford, then Prince George and Dawson Creek, which is where he met Peggy Coutts. They were married in 1955. The young couple moved to Kemano and enjoyed 4 years of life in the company town. The first two of their children were born while living there. In 1959 Rudy and Peggy moved to Sorrento and became permanent Shuswap residents. Rudy built Sorrento Esso and operated the service station for several years, until he sold it to his cousin Arnold Nagy. After that the family, which had by then expanded to 6 children, lived in a house they built on Notch Hill Road and Rudy built a large shop where he continued to do mechanical and auto body repairs for several years. A move to Tappen occurred in 1981 with another large shop built to house his continuing projects. To quote a cousin, Rudy had â&#x20AC;&#x153;an ingenious ability to create something out of nothing.â&#x20AC;? Many will remember the travel trailer he built for family vacations, and then the motorhome and camperized van that followed. Rudy was one of the founding (charter) members of the Sorrento Lions Club and was active and dedicated for many years. He was instrumental in some of their major projects including expansion of the Sorrento Hall, the pit barbeques, parade and casino every August long weekend. One achievement of which he was most proud, was the building of the Sorrento Lions Manor seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complex, a project which he conceived and led through to completion. Rudy will be remembered for his quick wit, twinkling eyes and wonderful sense of humour. He truly loved striking up a conversation with anyone he met, and in very short time would often discover they had mutual friends or relatives. He had a passion for fishing, music, dancing, painting, and travel. He was interested in almost any topic and loved to watch or read about astronomy, space travel, and world geography. Rudy is survived by Peggy, his wife of 57 years, and his children; Karen, Marion (Eef), Evelyn (Greg), Donald (Sandra), Anne (Duane) and Doug; also by 6 grandchildren, one great-grandson, nieces, nephews and many, many relatives. He will be sadly missed but we know his parents, sister Edith, grandson Ryan, and many other departed souls were there with open arms to greet Rudy on his arrival. The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the wonderful staff at Community Care, Bastion Place and Shuswap Lake General Hospital for the loving care that helped make Rudyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last years and days as comfortable as possible. A Celebration of Life Mass will be held at St. Josephâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Roman Catholic Church (#60, 1st St SE, Salmon Arm) on Friday, July 19th at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Special Account # 899914 at Salmon Arm Savings & Credit Union, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rudy Sikora Memorial Seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fundâ&#x20AC;?. Rudy would be very pleased to know that funds will be used for necessary supplies and equipment for needy and palliative seniors in the Shuswap area. Much love and appreciation goes out to all family and friends for their sympathies and support at this time. Cremation arrangements entrusted to FISCHERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S FUNERAL SERVICES & CREMATORIUM LTD., Salmon Arm, (250) 833-1129.

Such an awesome mix of wonderful colours. Viv’s garden, in Canoe, is a little bit of everything and decorated with old and new. Something to walk through – her vegetable garden is really something to see!

Hanna & Hanna is offering

SUMMER WORKSHOPS

Our workshops are FUN and HANDS-ON!

HYDRANGEAS! We have varieties that grow well in shade, others that are best in full sun and some that can grow in either sun or shade. They’re just coming into bloom, and because they’re container-grown, they can be planted now to be enjoyed for the rest of the growing season.

All are 40% off this week: July 19-25.
