Grand Forks and the surrounding area will soon have a new company to enforce an animal control bylaw. The Commissionaires (a private company) have been hired by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) to provide animal control bylaw enforcement for Areas C (Christina Lake), Grand Forks (city), Area D (rural Grand Forks) and Greenwood. The Commissionaires, who will begin a one-year contract on Sept. 1, were voted in on July 25 at the RDKB board meeting in Grand Forks. The Commissionaires are a Canadian-wide company primarily offering security services. “The Commissionaires have given us a very good proposal and they’re a very well respected organization,” said RDKB director of corporate administration Elaine Kumar. “They’re going to get things taken care of in terms of animal control. I’m sure we’ll be very happy with the service they provide.”
Kumar said she thinks the main problems with the animal control bylaw centre around dogs: dogs running wild, dogs chasing deer, vicious dogs, dogs not being licensed. Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, who represents the city on the RDKB board, is not pleased with the deal and would like to see the city have more control over animal control. “I’m concerned, as was our city council, that we have a, call it a revised bylaw, for animal control established before we hire a new contractor; however, that was not the resolution,” he said. “The resolution was that we move ahead with the Commissionaires for a one-year period, but we will still be addressing the revisions to the bylaw and be writing that bylaw. I’m assuming the new draft bylaw will be put out there for public view.” With over 150 people in attendance at a March 19 public meeting to discuss the first suggested revisions of the animal control bylaw, Taylor said it was clear the topic is very important to the community. “It was a very well attended
meeting,” he said. “It’s quite unusual to see that many people basically spontaneously come together to talk about the animal control bylaw.” Some of the suggestions brought forward by local groups that Taylor would like to see in the new animal control bylaw mainly address the subject of dog hotels, dog breeding facilities, kennel licensing and other similar issues. Taylor would like to see Grand Forks be able to write some of its own bylaws for how things are handled within the city boundaries. “But that becomes secondary to the writing of the regional district bylaw,” he said. “We need that regional district bylaw to ensure that whatever we put in place would fit in nicely and not end up causing dissension between the municipality and the region.” Taylor said hiring the Commissionaires to enforce the animal control bylaw was a compromise. “To be fair, the Commissionaires will have a year to show us what they can do here,” he said. Taylor would ideally like to see
a proper humane society in Grand Forks that could deal with the animal control bylaw issues as well as issues such as adoption and control of cats. “At this point, it’s a shared service under the RDCK (Regional District of Central Kootenay),” he said. “That doesn’t mean that we can’t in the future implement some of our own controls within city limits, but we really need to see what the umbrella bylaw the RDCK is bringing in will cover before we put anything in.” Kumar said the regional district is looking at all the feedback received from the public and is currently drawing up a final bylaw. She said the RDCK has a bylaw in place for animal control, but it has been a number of years since it has been updated. She said the process for changing the bylaw will take some time because the regional district wants to get it right. The region had been without animal control service since the previous contractors, Boundary Animal Control, terminated their contract in June.

1908 Destroyed in the fire, which last week raced through an entire city block, was the Yale Hotel, built by John Manly at a cost of $50,000 and opened in July 1899. Owner at the time of the fire was A. Traunweiser. 1913 Greenwood citizens were urging the provincial government to prevent the completion of a CPR tunnel being built along a bridge near the city for use as a public highway, claiming the tunnel’s position would be a traffic hazard. 1923 Eight persons, passengers in Harry Lightfoot’s new Dodge car, miraculously escaped serious injury when the car plunged over the embankment on Winnipeg Avenue at Columbia. 1928 Editor Smith of the Greenwood Ledge temporarily shifted his seat of operations to Grand Forks, making use of The Gazette linotype and presses, following a mechanical blow-out in the West Kootenay substation at Greenwood which left the city without electricity power for several days. 1933 For the safety and direction of children swimming at City Park, City Council appointed Miss Alice Flynn as guard and instructor. 1938 The temperature hovered at the 100 degree (37 C) mark and one day hit 103 (39 C) degrees in the shade as Grand Forks was gripped by a heat wave. 1943 Funeral services for the late Mrs. Christina McLennan, aged 79, were held

McLennan were among the first pioneers to enter the Rock Creek district in 1898. 1948 Mrs. Stella Maud Bonthron, pioneer resident of Grand Forks since 1901, died suddenly at her home at the age of 72. 1953 The main building of the Cooke Lumber Co. Ltd. sawmill located five miles west of Greenwood, was completely destroyed by fire Sunday night. Losses were estimated at $10,000. The fire originated in the engine room when a bearing became overheated in a test run of the engine. 1958 Two Grand Forks girls, Sally Benninger and Lee Mitchell, attending UBC summer school drama classes, were chosen for roles in the university production of Pinocchio to run for 13 performances. 1963 Milo McGarry and Leo Mills of the hospital board, appeared before city council to ascertain whether adequate power would be supplied to operate the new hospital, to open in August, and were assured of sufficient power. 1968 The Dept. of Recreation and Conservation has entered negotiations with the real estate firm of Mather & Wilson to purchase about 12 acres of lakeshore from Ralph Wolverton with the purpose of developing a public beach and picnic site for the summer of 1969. 1973 Longtime residents of North Fork, Eldon and Pearl Bannert, have left for Adams Lake.

City considers tax exemptions for business CRAIG LINDSAY Gazette Reporter
At the City of Grand Forks Committee of the Whole meeting on July 22, Stephanie Johnson, local government consultant for Urban Systems Ltd., gave a presentation regarding the development of a revitalization tax exemption approach for Grand Forks. The bylaw, if carried, would allow the city to offer tax exemptions to businesses as an incentive to make improvements. “She talked about a tax stimulation program for downtown businesses,” said Mayor Brian Taylor. “I
think it was very well received by council. We expect to have a more formal presentation at our Aug. 19 regular meeting.” Taylor told the Gazette the system would be based on similar types of businesses or geographical areas. “It’s an exciting concept,” he said. “It’s trying to give some opportunity to tax-exempt people who put money into revitalizing their business in certain key areas in our city.” Later this month, city staff will review the information received before making a recommendation to council regarding a template for a future bylaw.

The actions of three individuals prevented a forest fire at the scene of an accident on Highway 3 last Thursday (Aug. 1), according to Grand Forks RCMP. The truck rollover accident and subsequent fire occurred near the Wilgress Lake rest area, between Grand Forks and Greenwood, and Grand Forks Fire Rescue was dispatched but Const. Neal Kalnin said passersby assisted greatly in containing the fire. “The fire travelled up the hill and three people took the time to stop and put out the fire that was travelling up the embankment and I believe due to their
actions, we did not have a forest fire,” Kalnin said. Grand Forks Fire Rescue arrived at the scene and according to Grand Forks Fire Rescue assistant chief Kevin McKinnon, the fire was put out completely. “There was a fire, so we sent fire trucks out there and it did spread slightly into the wildlands so we had to get that contained as well,” McKinnon said. As for the truck and its driver, no injuries were sustained. “It (the truck) had rolled over onto its driver’s side and continued across the eastbound lane of traffic and resided in the ditch, at which point it caught fire and was fully engulfed – the driver exited without any
injuries. He had been wearing a seatbelt and was able to get out without any injury due to the fire or the accident,” explained Kalnin. The RCMP constable also wanted to bring to light the actions of the three people. “I think they pretty much saved our community here from a (tragic event) like back in 2003 up in Barriere,” he went on to say. While speed or mechanical failure could be reasons for the accident, Kalnin said nothing has been determined and the investigation is ongoing. “We’re still investigating that; a commercial vehicle inspector is also working on that as well,” he said, adding that deer or wildlife were ruled out as causes for the accident.

Council receives report on climate reserve fund
CRAIG LINDSAY Gazette Reporter
Grand Forks City Council received a report at the Committee of the Whole meeting on July 22 for Climate Action Reserve Fund Bylaw No. 1989. The bylaw would allow the city to have the option to spend carbon tax dollars locally rather than sending them away. “Up until now, we have sent our penalty dollars to the Darkwoods
News tips
Project Trust Fund,” said Coun. Bob Kendel. “We are now able to establish our own fund with our own carbon tax dollars. Rather than send it away, we can keep the money here and put it towards our own green initiatives.” As part of the carbon tax agreement, the city pays $25 per tonne of the city’s greenhouse gas emission towards the fund. The bylaw has not yet been introduced for any readings by city council.
Tear it up
They didn’t find gold, but city workers did find an old septic tank in the parking lot behind the Gazette a few weeks ago. The septic tank and an old foundation belonged to the old Province Hotel that Hal Wright, manager of operations for Grand Forks, estimates is at least 50 years old. City workers found the tank when they were doing work in the parking lot to improve the drainage. “We’re going to see if we can’t utilize it as a reservoir,” said Wright. “It’s completely intact. We’re going to re-pipe and connect it to our storm system.” Craig Lindsay Photo

❚ Our View
Get on your horses and get bylaw done A replacement has been found to take over for Boundary Animal Control, the company formerly in charge of enforcing animal control bylaws and the one that cancelled its contract abruptly in June. The Commissionaires (a private company) has been hired to handle all things related to animal control by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) – it is a one-year contract, which will begin in September. While it is good to have a company in place to handle enforcement, it’s time to get down to the nitty gritty as they say, the actual bylaw. Earlier in the year, the RDKB gave three readings to Animal Control Bylaw No. 1511 and to say it was unpopular is an understatement. Some have referred to the previous bylaw as draconian amongst other things. The proposed legislation did not include language to deal with cats, and dogs would’ve been euthanized if not claimed five days after the pound-keeper posted a notice at the regional pound – in this case, the old SPCA building on Donaldson Drive – and fees paid. It was eventually decided to rework the bylaw and the RDKB is in the middle of that right now. RDKB director of corporate administration Elaine Kumar says the regional district is taking its time because it wants to get everything right and while that makes sense, there is less than a month before the Commissionaires take over animal control – wouldn’t it be prudent to have something in place so that the company can do its job properly? One of the reasons suggested for Boundary Animal Control terminating its contract was that the framework wasn’t in place (i.e. bylaws) for the former company to do its job properly. Some said that having clear and concise bylaws, would give animal control clear direction with how to act. There will most certainly be no bylaw in place by Sept. 1 and thus, the new animal control enforcement won’t have any clear guidelines. Let’s hope that the RDKB won’t be placing yet another ad looking for animal control enforcement before a year is up.

The days are getting shorter – that’s what happens as we progress from summer to fall to winter. I realized this during a conversation with some co-workers about how school would be starting again soon. It seems as if the years are getting shorter too. The anniversary of the big July 20 windstorm that rocked Grand Forks passed and so did the threeyear anniversary of the disappearance of Owen Rooney (read about this in a future issue of the Gazette) and I found myself surprised that both events happened a year and three years ago respectively. I was a reporter when Rooney was first reported missing in August 2010 and I remember that former Gazette reporter Cassandra Chin had just gone on vacation when the windstorm hit in July of 2012 –

ber, I blink and it’s Christmas Eve. It might have something to do with getting older as there is a lot more for me to worry about and do in a given week and right after an issue of the Gazette goes to press, I’m already looking towards the next issue. Having to take care of all the things related to an issue occupies my mind and doesn’t afford me the luxury of counting down the months, days and hours before Christmas. It’s both a blessing and a curse I suppose. On one hand, I’m adult now and am afforded the freedom of an adult but on the other hand, I still long for that carefree feeling one gets when they are a child. Where all their worries are limited to work, play and what they’re getting for Christmas.

LETTERS z Environment
The Peter Principle and Lynch Creek Editor: Re: BCTS proceeds despite objections (story, July 17, 2013 issue) The recent announcement by B.C. Timber Sales (BCTS) that the perimeter of Class A Gladstone Provincial Park in the Lynch Creek watershed will be logged is hardly surprising. Very few politicians and bureaucrats respect our democratic system of governance and sometimes take advantage of the largest and most important stakeholder group; unfortunately, the most impotent “we the people.” This point is easily validated by our antiquated water management in rural B.C. In my opinion, bureaucracies are inherently weak. Thirty-four years ago, a university professor (Laurence J. Peter), after extensive research, concluded that people in hierarchal organizations, like bureaucracies, are eventually elevated one level beyond their level of competence. He called this work the Peter Principle – where there is no sting for failure, no buzz for success and you are making decisions for which you will never be held accountable; decision-making is not your game! There are significant events
in our life’s journey that go a long way in defining our character and citizenship. The bureaucrats in BCTS have certainly made such a decision and remind us why so many people hold bureaucrats and politicians in contempt. After all, decisions driven by statutory authority and not fact is now commonplace on the B.C. landscape and it certainly won’t change if we walk away from a fight! Our new BC Liberal MLA Linda Larson wanted the job of representing the people of the riding, so represent us! Barry Brandow Sr., Grand Forks
z GENEROSITY
Glad to have it back, says German tourist Editor: My family and I are from Frankfurt, Germany and were travelling through B.C. and Alberta. On July 12, we were at Christina Lake’s Cascade Cove RV Park. We decided to go back to Grand Forks, get information of the area and buy some food and beverages. But getting out of the car, my cellphone slipped out of my pockets and I didn’t realize it. After we returned to the RV park, I realized that my phone was gone. The first idea was to call it with another cellphone – nobody answered.
z OPINION We searched the truck several times, but we didn’t find it. I thought I had forgotten the phone in the RV park office so I looked for the manager Karen. I told her the story. We searched the office, but no result. Karen asked me where we went in Grand Forks and she phoned the places. None of the places had found a cellphone and the tourist information had the answering machine on. I drove back to Grand Forks, looking for the phone. When we arrived at the tourist info, the lady just finished her work and was on the way to her car. When she saw me she already knew I was the guy missing a cellphone. We started searching the tourist info building but didn’t find it, so we returned to the RV park. My son called my lost phone and a man answered and said he did find my phone – I talked to the man. I didn’t understand him too well because my English is not perfect. By chance Karen came along and she talked to the man. She found out the man on the line was Larry and she knows him well. Karen arranged a meeting point and I drove back to Grand Forks a third time to meet Larry. As a thank you I wanted to give Larry money but he refused and told me I should drink a cold beer instead. Thanks to all concerned people. I will keep Grand Forks and Christina Lake in good memories. Frank Schroeck, Germany

Deregulated sewerage system flawed z Rousing the Rabble ROY RONAGHAN
In a move to cut red tape and reduce costs by cutting staff, the Government of B.C. passed legislation on May 31, 2005 to “deregulate” the design and installation of small scale, on-site sewerage systems in communities not served by sewerage
systems. Part of the government’s rationale for deregulating was to allow the development of small parcels of land and to encourage innovation in the sewerage disposal industry. Lawsuits against the health authority had also become costly. “Deregulation” meant that the design, installation and maintenance of septic systems was placed in the hands of private sector technicians known as Registered Onsite Wastewater Practitioners (ROWPs) or private sector engineers, “authorized persons,” as they are known in the industry. Up until the time the sewerage disposal regulations were changed, the design and installation of septic systems had to pass the close scrutiny of a health officer. Since 2005, homeowners have had to work with either a ROWP, or a private sector engineer. ROWPs may have as little as 15 days training in the design and installation of septic systems. Oversight of the work of the technicians and engineers is provided by provincial councils called the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC (ASTTBC) and the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of BC (APEGBC). Complaints about new systems are registered with either of these bodies. The British Columbia Onsite Sewerage Association (BCOSSA) and the Western Canadian Onsite Wastewater Management Association of BC (WCOWMA) provide educational and technical support for practitioners. Has deregulation worked? Is the lack of involvement by the local health authority a positive step? Do homeowners have confidence in the system? Have there been failures? According to a study published in 2009 by the Sewage System Regulation Improvement Coalition (SSRIC) with assistance from the Environmental Law Clinic at the University of Victoria, after less than four years the system had become “a case study in regulatory failure.” The SSRIC study was thorough and addressed a long list of serious concerns: no government inspection or approval; conflict of interest when a technician authorizes and installs a system; no protection for the public by posting information; no public right of appeal; no monitoring of technicians and no government disciplinary process; a reliance on the ASTTBC and the APEGBC to discipline their members; no onsite monitoring; secrecy around disciplinary measures taken; a lack of legally enforceable standards; a lack of accountability to the public and the government; and, a lack of accountability on the part of practitioners for their work. The SSRIC report with recommendations was submitted to George Abbot, Minister of Health Services, Mary Polak, Minister of Healthy Living and Sport, and Murray Coell, Minister of Advanced Education and Labour Market Development Unfortunately, it appears that little action has been taken by government to improve the system. The acts that were passed in 2005 are substantially the same and there is still no government oversight. The removal of any government involvement in a matter that could be the cause of serious health hazards is a retrograde step. Rural homeowners deserve more than what they got with the self regulated system and the government has a responsibility to address the issues that have come to light in the past eight years, and there are many. Have there been problems in Boundary Country with the design and installation of small-scale sewerage systems? Without a reporting system that is open and transparent, residents have no way of knowing about them and how they were addressed. Homeowners who are looking for a sewerage system technician or engineer are well advised to do thorough background investigations on local and regional practitioners before making a choice. Due diligence is critical and caution is in order. – Roy Ronaghan is a columnist for the Grand Forks Gazette

z CADETS
Grand Forks’ Lawson strives to survive z Local Submission
LT. (N) PEGGY KULMALA
Fourteen-year old Zoey Lawson of Grand Forks and her partner, 13year old Jeana Park of Port Moody, lived on their own during a fourday final field exercise, building their own shelter, preparing their own meals, collecting their own water and essentially practising all the survival skills they learned over the previous two weeks. On the morning of July 24, assessors visited each of the two-person teams at each of the 20-plus campsites, evaluated their performances, and then had them get ready for the two-hour drive back to Victoria. When asked what was her biggest challenge over the final exercise, Lawson said immediately said, “Boredom!” Not surprising, given the busy cadet is always on the move, over and above her schoolwork at Grand Forks Secondary School and her commitment to 841 Royal Canadian
Air Cadet Squadron – she also takes karate and art lessons. And what was Park’s biggest challenge? Being isolated from the rest of her flight (classmates). “We are friends with the entire flight,” she said. “It was hard not to see them.” During the three-week basic survival course, the cadets learn how to react when an emergency situation arises and they do not have access to the normal comforts of home. More than teaching teens how to camp, the survival course provides hand-on exposure to primitive outdoor living skills, how to aid in a rescue as well as how to be rescued. The teens learn how to problemsolve under adverse conditions, including being hungry and isolated, under stress and with a lack of sleep. They also learn how to push their personal boundaries, a transferable life skill that can be applied to any situation, regardless of the life path they choose after they leave the cadet program. The successful course cadets graduated on July 26 during a formal parade at the Albert Head Air Cadet Summer Training Centre in Victoria, B.C.

Q.
Why should I buy travel Insurance?
Excellent question. There are so many reasons! Take for example a couple of snow bird vacationers. While on a visit to Arizona, a man suffered a heart attack, was admitted to hospital, and was evacuated by air back to Canada the following day. His wife went with him and a drive-away company was hired to bring their RV back home. The total out-of-pocket cost was $47,868 of which their provincial medical plan paid only $400. Visit the MSP website for details on what they will cover for out of province care—you may be shocked. Not only are out of country emergencies costly but MSP limits coverage once you leave BC whether it is a trip within Canada or abroad. It’s not just your health that you should insure while travelling. Trip cancellation insurance will reimburse you for nonrefundable pre-paid travel arrangements and baggage insurance will cover the cost of clothes, toiletries, and other necessities you may have lost. Of course, as with all policies, there are conditions and exclusions. It is important to review these conditions and exclusions with an Insurance Broker. When shopping for a Travel Medical product the bottom line should not be the price, the bottom line should be - you are covered. To get more information contact RHC Insurance Brokers at any one of our 8 locations.

The Christina Lake Stewardship Society (CLSS) has been offerCHRISTINA LAKE ing the Young STEWARDSHIP Stewards of SOCIETY the Boundary Youth Program every Thursday for the last four weeks, and they will continue to do so for the month of August. The first session, “Fantastic Fish”, involved a teaching component to teach 16 children the basics of fish identification and life cycles. This was followed by the spawning game, where they hatched out of their eggs and made their way down the ‘stream’ to the ‘lake’ where they had to avoid predators, played by their parents. The second session “Fun in the Forest” involved a presentation about the different types of trees that can be found in the area. They then went out and found these trees along the trails of the Nature Park, and had a scavenger hunt. “Aliens Amongst Us” was a program designed around teaching the children about the problems associated with invasive species, both aquatic and terrestrial. This was followed by a walk outside to identify some weeds, which were bagged and collected. The children did a great job, and two very full garbage bags of weeds were taken to the transfer station! After the weeds were bagged, we embarked on animal track casting. The polymer tracks of all kinds of animals were filled with plaster, dried and popped out. The children were in awe of the animal track that they had made of
z Local Submission
their favourite animal, and they were excited to take them home with them. “Amazing Animals” was the most recent program to be offered. This session began with a presentation that talked about different groups of animals, mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, and some of the species within these groups that you can find around Christina Lake. This presentation was supplemented with bird and frog calls as well, so the children could hear what these animals sound like. The “Who Am I” game was next, where a picture of an animal was clipped on to the back of each child. They then had to ask questions of their friends and families in order to find out what animal they were. The 19 children of this session then got their hands dirty and made some animal track castings, and painted animal cut outs. The Young Stewards of the Boundary Youth Program is a great way for parents and children to learn together about the ecology, and biology of Christina Lake, as well as how to conserve it. This program is offered every Thursday from 10:00 am to 11:30 am and is by donation. Pre-registration is advised because spots fill up fast. This program would not be possible without the generous support of the Phoenix Foundation, the Government of Canada, the Government of BC, RDKB, and donations from members. The CLSS would like to thank these groups for making the Young Stewards Educational Tools Project a reality. If you have any questions, comments, or you want to be a part of this program, you can contact the Christina Lake Stewardship Society at 250-447-2504 or clss@nethop.net.

Paddle-boarders should wear life-jackets too

Gazette Editor
For the fourth year, Grand Forks RCMP has a summer constable patrolling the waters at Christina Lake. Const. Chris Cottrill says amongst his duties are checking boats to make sure people have their boating licences and following the rules. In his four years in his summer job, there haven’t been any serious incidents but he is noticing a frequent occurrence of a certain type of infraction this year. “We’re checking boats to make sure people are complying with having their boating licences and safety equipment and following the rules,” Cottrill explained. “The one thing I’ve noticed this year; there are a lot more paddle-boarders on the lake and we’re trying to ensure everyone is aware they need to have a (life-jacket) even on a paddle board – a lot of people aren’t aware of that law.” Amongst the common infractions Cottrill sees are people not being in possession of a boaters’ licence or boaters card and not having ID numbers on a boat or safety items like flashlights or fire extinguishers. Liquor infractions are common but seem to be on the decline. “As far as drinking, the biggest thing we want is the drivers/operators don’t have any alcohol in their systems,” Cottrill said. “We do have an ASE that we have with us, a roadside screening device. This year I’ve only tested two people so

far this summer and they passed it.” When it comes to boating and alcohol, boat operators are not allowed to be drinking but there can be alcohol on a boat. “The only thing we tell them is don’t be tying up three or more boats together on the lake, or wherever. It comes from being a private setting to when they have the music cranked up and people jumping from one boat to another; it’s just dangerous. Plus we don’t know how many life-jackets are going to be on the said boat. When people are jumping from one boat to another boat, they could be overloading that boat or there may not be enough life-jackets on that boat,” he said. See video at www.grandforksgazette.ca.

Targeted grazing for weed control
When it comes to the fight against invasive plant species, a new and exciting KRISTEN method is SMALL proving to be quite useful. This method is known as targeted goat grazing, and it has been used successfully, including by the City of Kamloops. Basically, targeted grazing involves using goats to munch on and kill weeds. Examples of weeds that have been controlled using this method include plumeless thistle (Carduus acanthoides), knapweeds (Centaurea spp.) and Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense). The reason why this method is thought to be so effective is because once a plant is grazed on, it loses its flowers and leaves and cannot go to seed or do photosynthesis. This means that the plant can’t reproduce or grow. Goat excrement is also an excellent fertilizer and therefore targeted grazing not only gets rid of weeds, it also encourages the growth of grasses and other native species. The Boundary Invasive Species Society and the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) are now asking the question – can targeted grazing be used to control hoary alyssum (Berteroa incana)? Hoary alyssum has become such a problem species within the Boundary and despite all efforts, it is still extremely invasive. Therefore, any method that can be used to control hoary alyssum should be explored. So far, initial trial runs suggest that targeted

Joke of the Week:
One day, a man came home and was greeted by his wife dressed in a very revealing nightie. ‘Tie me up,’ she purred, ‘and you can do anything you want.’ So he tied her up and went golfing.

goat grazing can indeed be used against hoary alyssum, as goats will munch on both the flowers and the leaves of this weed. How effective the grazing is in the long-term is not yet known. And although hoary alyssum is known to be toxic to some livestock, so far no health problems have surfaced within these test runs. If you’re interested in learning more about targeted grazing using goats, come out to a free workshop this Saturday (Aug. 10) at the RDKB office in Grand Forks at 10 a.m. To sign up for this workshop, contact the Boundary Invasive Species Society at 250-4462232 or boundaryinvasives@gmail.com. – Written by Kristen Small for the Boundary Invasive Species Society

Gazette Editor
The Christina Lake Arts & Artisans Society (CLAAS) will be having its Fiestaval fundraiser at the Christina Living Arts Centre tomorrow night (Aug. 8). This year’s event, which will raise monies for the expansion of the living arts centre, is Spanish/Mexican-inspired and includes an art auction amongst other things. “This year’s Fiestaval is going to be probably one of the
biggest events we’ve had in terms of the quality of the artwork that’s going to be there,” explains Bob Dupee, CLAAS chair. “We’ve got donations from some of the top Canadian and American glass-blowers … they’ve really stepped up to the plate on this one and given us some really beautiful things for the art auction side of things.” Amongst the other featured events this year will be Zumba dancing and the food will be Mexican-inspired. “What we’re doing with the funding that we get from

this, and we’re hoping to raise enough to do a matching grant to complete our plans for the next phase of our (welcome centre, living arts centre) buildings out there, we’re going to be creating new studio centre and an outside amphitheatre, so we’re trying to raise money for that,” Dupee explains. Tickets are going fast and are $35 in advance, $40 at the door and are available at both the arts centre at Christina Lake, Wildways and gallery 2 in Grand Forks. Call 250-447-6161 or 250-447-6561 for more.

SPORTS ❚ RUGBY
Greenwood hosts Boundary Bash Like many West Kootenay residents, Oliver Glaser and his wife left the big city to raise their family in a small town setting. Glaser doesn’t regret the decision but he does miss his rugby mates and the action on the field. To that end, Glaser decided to organize the Boundary Bash Social 10s Rugby Tournament in his hometown of Greenwood and invite his Vancouver club, the East Vancouver Scribes, and a few other teams up for some rugby and some socializing in the West Kootenays. “I moved to Greenwood last year in May. I grew up in the country, on a farm in Langley surrounded by horses,” said Glaser. “We wanted something like that for our kids, so we came out here.” The tournament took place this past weekend in Greenwood and featured the host Scribes, a team from Chilliwack, the Trail Colonials, a West Kootenay select team, which included several players from Grand Forks, and a women’s team from Nelson, which scrimmaged against the referees. The other teams played round-robin games and the tournament wrapped up with a final game featuring Trail and the Scribes. The Trail squad captured the title with a hardfought 35-20 win. For their efforts, the Colonials picked up the game ball, which was a custom-made cow hide rugby ball made by Ingram Creek Saddlery in Greenwood. “Selfishly, I put the tournament on so all my friends would come up and I could play rugby with them,” admits Glaser. “The real, main thing is to see if I can build some interest and get to know the local rugby players. See if we can get the Grand Forks (Wanderers) team back together again or start it up again so we can play some regular games again. Moving from Vancouver, the only thing I miss here is sailing and rugby. I don’t miss the traffic or anything.” Glaser joined the East Vancouver Scribes after playing high school rugby in Langley. He said the club plays games every Saturday in the spring and fall, and practices twice a week. “Once you play rugby, you’re kind of committed to three days a week of hanging out with the boys,” he said. “Wednesday nights have always been our club night, where we hang out at the clubhouse. It’s something I miss being out here in the Boundary – the rugby culture. There’s less of it here; less guys playing. My hope with this is that we get more interest and get more players.” Rugby is known as much for the social aspect of the game as for the action on the field. Glaser says that almost every club team in Vancouver has its own clubhouse and the socializing is very important to the culture. “It’s just sort of a tradition – an old English thing,” he said. To that end, there was much more going on at Boundary Bash than rugby. Saturday saw full-contact walking rugby. There was also boat races, tug-o-wars, skills competition and a Sunday night social with the Scribes house band, The Dropbears. Glaser hopes to make the Boundary Bash a regular yearly occasion. “For me, it’s really important to see local guys come out and play,” he said. “Trail and Nelson told me they’re stoked that there is a tournament here so they can have a chance to play teams from the coast that they wouldn’t normally play.”

The Grand Forks International baseball tournament (GFI) will return in June of 2014. Pictured here, GFI Society President Bud Alcock by the GFI sign on Central Avenue and Donaldson Drive. Karl Yu Photo
2014 GFI running June 25 to 30
KARL YU
Gazette Editor
While there won’t be a Grand Forks International baseball tournament (GFI) in 2013, the organizing committee confirmed it will return in 2014. However, recent tournaments took place on Labour Day long weekend but the 2014 GFI will run between June 25 and 30 inclusive. GFI Baseball Society President Bud Alcock said that reaction to the change of dates has been positive – withdrawal of a pair of teams for 2013 Canadian Nationals was cited as one of the reasons for the cancellation of this year’s tournament. “There’s a variety of reasons for the change, one of the main ones is the demographics of the area,” Alcock told the Gazette. “For example, Christina Lake expands hugely during the summer
and Aug. 15, they all start to leave. You reduce the population there by 50 per cent by the end of the month. Labour Day long weekend, everyone has to go home because everyone has to be back in school.” He said availability of umpires was also a concern with the September tournament time and the date change remedies that and other issues. “So far, reaction from the teams we’ve been in contact with has been extremely positive. We’re looking at doing a full roster of teams. We’re looking very strongly at a possibility of some international teams, beyond the U.S., and some different umpiring as well – we might have some American umpires,” explained Alcock, adding that he couldn’t get into any specifics about teams that would be at the 2014 event. He also said that there was a strong possibility that there would be local representation at the 2014 GFI.
In terms of weather – there have been a few rainy Junes the last few years – Alcock also said the organizing committee was prepared for inclement weather. “Let’s put it this way. The field will be ready, and the infield. The city is sodding it this fall, so (there will be) a grass infield, which is what’s required and in terms of rain, we’ve had horrendous rainfall on Labour Day weekend and we’ve always managed to pull through and do a good job and people expect a little bit of foul weather once in awhile,” explained Alcock. He added that in that event, double- and triple-header games would take place. “I’ve been here seven years and June’s generally been pretty good – there’s been a couple of years where it’s been pretty wet but this year was fantastic,” he said. The committee is still looking for volunteers and anyone interested can contact gfi@openminder.com.

The Grand Forks Border Bruins hockey team is looking for people to help billet players for the upcoming season. Billet families act as surrogate families for the players and most find the experience wonderful and fulfilling, said Michelle Odland, team billet co-ordinator. “Many of our billet families have provided a home away from home for players coming from throughout Canada and the United States and even Russia,” she said,“These players range in age from 16 to 20 years old.” Tom Frith, director of operations for the Border Bruins, has billeted several players over the years and he and his family have found it a very rewarding experience. “Besides being on the (Grand Forks Border Bruins) board on and off for a number of years, we’ve been billet home for three players per season,” he said. Frith said the players act as great mentors for the family’s three young boys. “It’s a very active household, but we’d have it no other way,” he said. “It’s just a fantastic opportunity. The boys really love having these part-time hockey big brothers around. It’s a very rewarding experience.” Frith said the family still keeps in contact with

most of the old billet players, who often drop by if they’re passing through Grand Forks. The Border Bruins require billet families to provide a bed and bedroom, with access to washroom and laundry facilities as well as meals to players. In return, families are compensated with $500 a month per player for the season and receive tickets to home games. To become a billet family, contact Odland at billeting@borderbruins.ca or by phone at 250443-1245. – with files from Karl Yu

It was a fun time and a great learning experience at provincials for a pair of West Kootenay Minor Lacrosse Association (WKMLA) teams. The WKMLA Midget team, which was coached by Grand Forks native Tom Frith and featured three Grand Forkers (Cavin Barwick, Cruz Tasker and Troy Frith), finished just outside the medal round. “We fared very well,” said Frith. “We came one goal short of making the medal round. It was tied in the last minute and the other team scored to go up. We pulled our goalie and had several opportunities but couldn’t tie it up.” Frith said the opportunity was fantastic and that the kids all had huge smiles after the weekend was done. The feeling of success was even better knowing the team had four players who had never played lacrosse before, said Frith. “They just walked in as 15 year-olds and decided they wanted to try,” he said. “Two of those had never even played a team sport. They’d heard it was fun. We had such a strong core of players this year that gelled and came together like nothing I’ve ever seen. It was a real mixed bag of diverse kids with limited levels of experience but they just enjoyed it so much and worked

so hard that they put in a good showing at that elite provincial level.” The WKMLA bantam team also did very well at provincials, winning bronze, and featured a pair of Grand Forkers: Wyatt Barwick and Jared Frith. Both provincial tournaments took place in the Lower Mainland in mid-July. The WKMLA is a box lacrosse association with players from throughout the Kootenay/ Boundary area including seven players from Grand Forks. The league has divisions for boys and girls from ages four to 15. The teams practiced in Castlegar and played tournaments on the weekends. In addition to being a coach, Frith also acted as chauffeur, transporting all seven Grand Forks players to Castlegar four times a week for different practices. “As lacrosse is not very big in the Kootenays, we have no other teams to play regular season games against and are a tournament-only team,” said Frith. He added that lacrosse is popular in many other parts of the province and throughout Canada. “Lacrosse is a fantastic sport for conditioning and teaches discipline as it is a very physical game,” he said. “It is an excellent form of cross training for kids involved in other sports.”

Boundary Peace Initiative holding anti-nuclear rally on Aug. 10
Two-hundred-thousand people disappeared within a 300-metre radius of ground zero on Aug. 6, 1945 in Hiroshima and Aug. 9, 1945 in Nagasaki, LAURA leaving thousands more SAVINKOFF to die and many more to live a tortured by disease, which they passed on to the unborn. The long-term devastation was not considered when the U.S. dropped its weapon of mass destruction in 1945. To date, the U.S. is the only country to have used the bomb, but not the only one to continue research, development and other applications of uranium. Nor did the U.S. remain the only country to have the bomb; eight more joined them with others in the process. Sixty-eight years later, over 20,000 more deadly nuclear warheads encircle the globe. The U.S. and Russia have about 1,500 on five-minute launch ready alert. Some nuclear weapon states reserve the right for first strike or the right to use conventional weapons on nuclear facilities. As well, NATO (of which Canada is a member) maintains the right to use nuclear weapons. The drive to build more nuclear power plants is of great concern. Power plant accidents do happen, as with Three-Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima, with many incidents not reported to the public. Serving the community since 1936 These all bears witness of the danger to humans and the environment; water and soil emit radiation, which is passed down through the food chain causing a drastic rise in cancer and other devastating illnesses. The powers that be minimize the danger and even raise the levels they Blaine R. Krist consider safe. Our staff is committed to Yet each incident adds its disease your complete satisfaction. to the mix.

rise in cancer, diabetes, auto-immune diseases and birth defects. Yet these effects are denied or minimized by the user states. Soldiers who served in these areas suffer from Gulf War Syndrome but are not being tested for radiation poisoning and therefore, receive no treatment. As well, the fine dust from exploding DU flies on the wind and infects the world, including you and I. A campaign by anti-nuclear activists instituted a legislated ban on uranium mining and exploration in B.C., but it can be lifted very easily. In the Kootenay/Boundary/Okanagan we have uranium deposits. Disturbed deposits become radioactive and the emissions can’t be stopped. If people are serious about not exposing children to further radiation, people must be vigilant. The public must let politicians of all levels know it does not support exploration and mining of uranium, it must insist that all excavation ensure no uranium lies underground. People must work to bring the legislated ban into law that cannot be changed at the whim of the sitting government. People must work to stop Canadian export of DU, Canadian complicity with nuclear weapons through NATO, and the drive to establish more nuclear power plants at home and globally. If people truly care about life, they must stand up and voice the need for a planet free of human made destruction, whether that comes from fossil fuels or all the facets of the nuclear industry. There are millions that raise their voices daily, with many more during Hiroshima/Nagasaki week. People are asked you to join a gathering at Gyro Park in Grand Forks on Aug. 10 at 1 p.m. There will be speakers, entertainers and information. There will also be a silent auction, which local businesses and individuals have donated items to.

Pines Bible Camp looks forward to new era
CRAIG LINDSAY Gazette Reporter
Pines Bible Camp in Grand Forks celebrated its 50th anniversary on Sunday in style with a celebration service in the morning featuring several speakers and the unveiling and dedication of a monument and a charter members’ bench. The afternoon saw a video interview with camp founder George Martens and an informal open mic time for former campers and staffers who shared thoughts and reflections. The event wrapped up in the evening with a worship concert. “This is a big deal,” said Gene Krahn, executive director for Pines. “It’s a big celebration. We’ve got different people here at the camp from different eras sharing some of their thoughts and reflections.” Krahn started with Pines 19 years ago and has seen many changes. He said that when he started, he was the only full-time staffer and now the camp employs five full-time, year-round staff members. “Our core audience are kids and families, for the most part,” said Krahn. “We run summer camps all summer long. Day camps for kids four and five years old, right up to teen camps and family camps.” Pines has also become a retreat centre where groups can come for family reunions or business retreats or similar events. “We provide programming for team building or just a facility for banquets,” he said. “We also have a school program with outdoor education for school groups in the spring and fall.” Krahn said the camp has had many changes
since the camp began and the years since. The number of campers has increased from 400 when Krahn began to close to 1,400 in 2011. “We’ve really grown in our summer camp programs in terms of numbers,” he said. “Facility wise, post-2012 windstorm, we’ve basically got all new cabins and new layout with a new dining facility. It’s got a whole new look. People don’t recognize it. Many of the old buildings are gone or have been removed.” The camp now features a state of the art aerial obstacle course, a beach with kayaking as well as typical camp fare such as archery, rock climbing and rappelling. “In some ways, it’s tough because there’s a lot of memories from over the years when the place looked the way it did,” said Krahn. “It’s the end of an era. But we’re looking forward to the next 50 years with the camp looking like it does today and all the memories that are going to come.” Former camper and camp staffer Dylan Zorn was out at the event and took the mic to talk about how he met his wife at Pines. “I came here as a kid,” he told the Gazette. “I kept coming as a teenager and eventually became a program director. I met my wife here. She came up from Aldergrove to be a counsellor and I was here and four years later we married. We’ve been married for 10 years now and have three kids.” Zorn fondly recalls sleepovers at the camp and trips to the tuck shop to pick up candy for the day. “You were allowed to do things you weren’t necessarily able to do at home,” he said. “Things like swimming in the river every day. That’s a highlight for a kid.”
