Greater Trail goings on Trail Staff West Kootenay Advertiser
No smart meter opt out for village Sometimes there’s power in numbers but not for FortisBC customers in the Village of Montrose. Resident Mario Como approached council last week with an impassioned plea to Mayor Joe Danchuk to unite the village to opt out of the utility company’s 2014 smart meter program. “We had the vision of a moratorium in Montrose,” said Como, delegated to speak on behalf of “concerned citizens of Montrose. What I would like to see is opting out for all of our community and send a clear message to Fortis.” Como cited health concerns related to the radio frequency technology used to “read” the wireless meters, and infrastructure expenses FortisBC electrical customers will inevitably be on the hook to pay. “The village has the responsibility to resist high pressure tactics by providing sanctuary against the harmful effects of radiation and protecting human rights,” said Como, adding, “only as a whole community are we able to avoid ill health effects, security issues, expenses of wireless metering and misinformation by FortisBC.” In August, FortisBC announced its approval from the B.C. Utilities Commission (BCUC) for the company to proceed with its Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) project next year. At that time, the company
confirmed that customers could choose to opt out of a new meter and its wireless transmissions, but the consumer would have to pay the “incremental” costs, not yet determined, related to the radio-off option. Trail ponders backyard chicken proposal Shawna Erback was hoping for an egg-cellent response from Trail council that would allow her to keep a few backyard fowl. Columbia Heights resident Erback, submitted a letter to the city this summer, asking how to obtain a permit to have backyard hens. However, in keeping with the growing trend of urban agriculture across Canada, there may be a coop d’etat already happening in the Silver City. “There are so many people who already have hens hidden in their yards in Trail,” explained Erback. “Hopefully someone can review this so that we can have our hens out in the open.” Although the city’s current animal control leaves no room for cracks in its rules, council is considering taking another look at Erback’s request. The topic was addressed at the Governance and Operations Committee (GOC) meeting Monday, and Coun. Sean Mackinlay laid down the open-minded approach council chose to take regarding the keeping of cluckers. “This is something that last came up in 2008,” said Mackinlay. Continued on P. B8

Members of the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 59 Grand Forks, gathered last week at the Christina Lake Elementary School (CLES) to present the school with a new Canadian flag. The old flag was in poor condition and it is the Legion’s pleasure to give the national flag a boost. From left, Ken Gresley-Jones, vice-president; Joni Griffin, director; Shawn Lockhart, CLES principal; Joe Tatangelo, president; and Mick Hanlon, Sgt. at arms, pose with pride with the new school flag.

Community/Health Eleven heads are better than one - so proves auxiliary forum Jim Sinclair WKA Editor
‘Those who can, do. Those who can do more, volunteer.’ So it is inscribed on the handout literature for the BC Association of Hospital Auxiliaries’ Kootenay Boundary Area Conference, 2013, hosted by the Castlegar and District Chapter on September 13. The Castlegar Community Complex was the scene of the conference and a group of about 150 was present for the event. Reports were delivered by presidents of the various local groups in the region, and a featured presentation by Erica Deines focused on the value of effective communication. Deines’ skill set is ideally suited to someone intent on helping an organization function more efficiently. “I’m a chartered mediator,” she informed. “And I do a lot of conflict management training.” Deines heads a not-for-profit outfit
Eleven auxiliary presidents gather with guests and local dignitaries prior to the conference launch on Sept. 13. Jim Sinclair photos
called the ADR Institute... ADR stands for Alternative Dispute Resolution.
“Today we were really homing in on volunteerism and just how it relates to
Conference main organizer and Castlegar auxiliary president Nettie Stupnikoff (L), along with Guest speaker Erica Deines.
good communication. Where can we go if we know how to communicate well with our volunteers?” Of key interest to the local community were some notable figures as revealed in the report submitted by President Nettie Stupnikoff, including the fact that 13,333 hours had been volunteered in 2012. As examples of the localized benevolence, the society orchestrated donations totaling $50,311.03. Equipment purchases amounted to $28,853.23. The society supported the local food bank to the tune of $2,000; the Hospice
society by $1,500; as well as bursaries and scholarships adding up to $2,500. Included in the report was
news of the coming second floor addition to the auxiliary’s Treasure Shop. 4.29”stories x 4” Similar of
achievement were shared by each of the local groups taking part in the conference, leading up to the pleasing announcement that collectively, the 11 auxiliaries in the Kootenay Boundary had donated $531,396 plus $16,300 in bursaries. On a provincial level the influence of hospital auxiliaries comes into sharp focus, with close to $8 million donated to health authorities and more than a quarter million in bursaries.

Voyagers on the Columbia to pass through Trail (and Castlegar) art harrison West Kootenay Advertiser
It has been many years since one could look out over the Columbia River and take in the sight of a 30-foot voyager canoe being paddled upstream but it’s something local residents will be able to see again. The Voyages of Rediscovery uses canoeing in school kids’ education. The program facilitators are journeying up from the mouth of the Columbia at Astoria, Oregon, to the source in Canal Flats. The
five guides oversee the river-based program and are paying tribute to the West Coast salmon – blocked from historic spawning grounds by the Grand Coulee Dam. The group is currently on the river on a multi-day camping trip with children from the Spokane Indian Band and will be moving on to Kettle Falls, Washington afterwards. “We’ll be there for two months carving the canoe with the kids at the high school,” said Adam Wicks-Arshack, guide and environmental educator
Students paddling the Columbia River in one of the voyager style canoes they have built through the Voyages of Rediscovery river-based environmental education program. Submitted
with the program. “It’ll be a David Thompson style, cedar plank canoe that we’re taking up to Canada.” The group has carved
five dugout canoes over the past year but has been primarily using the “Salmon Savior,” a 21-foot ponderosa pine, carved at the
Wellpinit middle and high school on the Spokane Reservation and an even larger 33-foot cedar canoe, the “Crying Salmon,” which was carved by the students of the Inchelium school on the Colville reservation. “The idea behind the canoes and the river expedition is to bring the salmon back to the upper reaches of the Columbia River,” said Wicks-Arshack. “We carved these canoes with thousands of students who’ve had the salmon removed from their culture by the Grand Coulee
Dam.” The group expects to be in the Canadian section of the river by early October and will be coordinating a welcoming event in Trail with the Columbia Basin Trust at that point. “The idea is to bring the Columbia River Treaty in front of the public and raise awareness of the river’s ecological health,” said Wicks-Arshack. “Maybe even bring the salmon back to Canada.” For more information on the Voyages go to http://voyagesofrediscovery.blogspot.ca

Twenty-ninth in an (almost) alphabetical series on West Kootenay/Boundary place names. For decades Castlegar ranked as one of West Kootenay’s most perplexing place name mysteries, right up there with Howser, Passmore, and Waneta. But unlike those others, which remain unsolved, its origin has been definitively established. Turns out the answer was there all along — just obscured. The story of how Castlegar got its name, and how it was lost for a century, is so remarkable that we’ll devote a few installments to it. The short answer is that it comes from the Irish ancestral home of the townsite’s founder. Castlegar, Ahascragh, County Galway was erected around 1815 by Sir Ross Mahon, and was the third home by that name on the property, where the Mahons settled in the late 17th century. The name, which is also found in several other places in Ireland, is derived from the Gaelic caisleán gearr, meaning “short castle.” Sir Ross’ grandson Edward Mahon (1862-1937) came to B.C. from England to make his fortune in real estate and mining. With brothers John and Gilbert, he owned several claims in the Nelson and Slocan mining divisions. In the year of 1891, Mahon bought the

ranch that would become north Castlegar from Albert McCleary, who pre-empted the site three years earlier and operated a ferry across the Columbia River. In 1897, with construction of a railway between Trail and Robson West imminent, Mahon decided to create a townsite. On May 22 of that year the Nelson Miner reported: “A new town is to be established at the terminus of the northern extension of the Columbia and Western railway, on the west bank of the Columbia river and opposite Robson. The site is better known as the McCleary ranch, a tract of land admirably situated for the building of a town. The new burg has not yet been named.” Provincial land surveyor Henry B. Smith laid out Castlegar on November 15 and deposited the plan at the land registry in Rossland ear-
ly the next year. The avenues originally followed a mining theme: Silver, Nickel, Copper, Granite, Quartz, Iron, Steel, Galena, Cobalt, and Platinum, plus Broadway and Park. The streets were Cedar, Pine, Maple, Elm, and Main. As Castlegar was coming to life on paper, Mahon and his brothers were negotiating with Augustus Heinze, who was building the railway to serve his Trail smelter. On October 12, 1897, Edward wrote in a letter: “We closed with Heinze re: Castlegar Townsite.” The agreement would see Heinze and the Mahons jointly develop the town — or so Edward hoped. But bitter disappointment lay ahead. More on that next week. For the full story of the Castlegar townsite and its founder, see Walter Volovsek’s The Green Necklace: The Vision Quest of Edward Mahon, published last year.

West Kootenay Advertiser
Business excellence will be celebrated in Rossland for the second year in a row. The Rossland Chamber of Commerce is presenting the Rossland Business Awards—a celebration of business excellence. “We are hoping to showcase and bring together the business community of Rossland,” said chamber executive director Renee Clark. “The chamber would like to celebrate business excellence and acknowledge the achievements of our business community.” The event was well received by the business community last year and the chamber was looking to carry on that momentum, explained Clark. The process is an inclusive one, as anyone in the community can nominate a business or business person in Rossland. Selection criteria and nomination forms can be found on
the Rossland Chamber of Commerce’s website. There are five categories for the awards:

Horoscope Michael O’Connor
for the
Week September 20, 2013
Tip of the Week: Autumn Equinox officially occurs when the Sun enters Libra in the Tropical Zodiac and this year it occurs on Sunday September 22 at 1:44 pm PDT. The overall chart pattern reveals a heated tug of war between the pull of the past and the push towards the future. As is often the case, despite hopes and ideals of a clean break, the past has a way of carrying over into the future. This is natural in the flow yet sometimes a clean break and fresh start is beneficial and desirable. However, this is not the case here. With Venus, the ruling planet of Libra, in Scorpio there is evidence of this tenacious grip of ‘what has been’ to persevere, yet not in an obvious way. It will occur in a covert fashion. This hidden or secretive element in nature is as ancient as the stars. When it comes to human nature it gives rise to intrigue, espionage, suspicion and mystery in general. These darker features of the game of life are also what add to making it interesting, yet deeply complex as well. As we collectively watch and hear news of the delicate yet also outrageous antics of political processes, this age old theme has become increasingly apparent. While evening news reporting remains a common event in our modern world, the internet has spawned numerous other news sources and this has deepened the plot significantly. This last quarter of 2013 therefore will synchronize with a continued and even escalated degree of complexity, intrigue and tension as humanity endeavors to forge ahead amidst forces that want to preserve traditions of the past. Perhaps Comet Ison scheduled to appear before the end of the year will offer to support to the push for the future side. Stay tuned…

Change is in the air and on the ground for everyone these days, not least of all you. A veritable metamorphosis is underway. You are not quite the same person you were even just a year ago and the change is noticeable. The good news is that increased confidence levels are the reflection of your new skin. Take a diplomatic lead toward renewed negotiations, in private. Making a series of improvements and adjustments in your daily routine is now in focus. The time has come to join forces with others somehow. This may be as basic as applying for a new job. The danger of scattering your energies is high these days so you will have to be extra deliberate and focused. Clear the way of any distractions and aim for collaboration. A creative cycle is about to begin for you. It will require that you be willing to give more than usual, however. This includes learning new skills and the discipline it implies. Fortunately, your energy levels continue to flow at a rather high level and will through to mid-October. Use this window to launch initiatives with long term prospects. Many new thoughts, ideas and visions are flowing through your mind. You feel ambitious and want to invest somehow. Getting the funds and/or knowing what is worthwhile imply homework. Seeking the advice and guidance of experts feels right, even necessary. Regarding higher stakes, be extra cautious as you are likely to encounter some real players. The pace of things is about to quicken. You have already been in a dynamic and pioneering cycle which continues. This has included a good deal of communications and negotiations. Inspirations to beautify your home environment are in the mix. At deeper levels, the overall flow is meant to support you to lay claim to hidden gifts of power. Taking new leads and initiatives over the past few weeks now shifts into stabilizing your base. This includes discussions, inspirations and actions to stimulate a healthier flow. Money may be a central theme but the emphasis may be on your energy levels in general. With a steep learning curve also underway, your main challenge includes determining your direction.

The Sun in your sign will activate you to take new initiatives. This includes a deliberate outreach to communicate, negotiate and make key connections. Financial concerns and interests are likely areas of focus. Somehow you are meant to ‘pay your dues’. Meanwhile, a mix of playfulness and rebellion in your overall mode of expression is signalling others to remain alert. The past few months have probably been quite dynamic overall. Now you are being called within to do some soul searching. You may already have felt this pull a week or so ago. Balancing this urge with a continued assertion of your will and desire to take new leads and satisfy lingering curiosities is your next goal to achieve. Social opportunities and exciting encounters with friends new and old characterize the incoming trends. This window will be especially open wide over the next week or so. Earned rewards and perhaps inheritances indicate a mixed blessing. Contact with spiritual agencies and/or entities add a twist of mystery to your scope. Getting the attention you feel you want and deserve is more likely to occur over the next few weeks. With your ambitions running high these days you will want to make the most of this window of opportunity. Your overall outreach is also in a healthy period of expansion. Using your leadership to enlist the same in others is ideal now. The past few weeks have likely included some significant endings and beginnings. These have challenged you to see a bigger picture. They have also pushed you to make extra efforts and to acquire new tools and implement fresh strategies. Dealing with some provocative power players is also part of the plot. Now it is time to increase the scope and quality of your network. As if crossing a bridge across a deep chasm you are fast approaching a point of no return. The good news is that this journey is full of adventure. Yet, success requires strategic investigations into new possibilities. As well, you have to work harder than usual. However, with the right attitude, a spirit of adventure and a concentrated focus, you will prevail.

Grand Forks works to prepare for new meters Craig Lindsay West Kootenay Advertiser
ALL 2013’S MUST GO! WE NEED TO MAKE ROOM FOR THE 2014’S 2013 Dodge Dart SE Sedan
Starting at $16,995*
Water meters are coming next year and the way is now being prepared for them. City council approved a request for funding for locating water system infrastructure in Grand Forks in preparation for installation of water meters in 2014. “We don’t know where some of the on/off switches are around our community,” said Mayor Brian Taylor. “We really need to know that for the operation of the city.” Otherwise, if something happened in a house and there was water running, it would keep running until the water system contractors could find that shut-off
valve, which could take some time if it was not located beforehand. Taylor said that about 20 per cent of the shut-off valves in the city are hard to locate. “We’re going to address those difficult to locate situations and shut-off valves so that when we come to putting in the water meters we’re not charged extra by our contractors because they can’t find the shut-off valves,” he said. The cost of locating all of the shut-off valves is expected to be $96,000. The entire cost of the water meter installation is expected to be $1.2 million, which will come from gas tax revenue, as will the preliminary work of location shutoff valves.

Robson, again proves ideal for hosting rock climbing festival MARVIN BEATTY West Kootenay Advertiser
The West Kootenay Climbing Association, for a second year, held its rock climbing festival in Robson near the Lions Head Pub on Saturday, Sept. 14. Vince Hempsall an organizer and executive member of The Association of West Kootenay Rock Climbers (TAWKROC), a non-profit organization with a mandate to support and promote the responsible development and maintenance of safe outdoor rock climbing areas in the West Kootenays, said it was great to have nice weather this year. “It was a downpour last
year,” laughed Hempsall. “It’s great to be able to get people out here so they can see how it’s done and see how safe it is.” A number of lines are located on the 60 metre rock face behind the pub and the group spent the morning making access easier by removing a lot of overgrowth at the base of the climb. Hempsall said the event is meant to promote the activity in the region. A raffle set up with prizes of climbing gear and outdoor supplies acts as a fundraiser to purchase hardware for the many routes in the West Kootenays. Some of the gear in the Kinnaird region, for example, was

Pura Vida hosts documentary night KIRSTEN HILDEBRAND West Kootenay Advertiser
The Pura Vida Foundation is hosting a documentary night to raise money for a shelter to support abandoned and severely abused girls in Peru. Three years ago the foundation’s Nathan Beninger started making a documentary about a little Peruvian boy with one leg — Ricardo’s Story. The filmmaker spent two weeks in the community in which the boy lived documenting his struggles. “I thought this was an interesting story to tell,” said Beninger, a photographer by trade who first went to Peru to capture its natural beauty. Instead, he became captivated by the struggles of that country’s poor and what he could do help. Ricardo’s story is common. His family lives in extreme poverty with food not available for several days at a time. His father abuses rubbing alcohol. Still, school is very important and Ricardo’s mother carries him there. For him, it’s a four-hour round trip. Beninger revisited the story this year as students at St. Jerome’s University in Waterloo, Ontario fitted the boy with a

prosthetic leg. “The film’s second part is awesome. It shows him running around for the first time, playing soccer,” he said. “It was gratifying to see such a positive change for this boy. I really did something cool for this kid’s life,” said Beninger. Positive change is something Beninger works for at the expense of luxuries in his own life. It’s often a hard sacrifice considering the work is, at times, very dark. “People give me a hard time because this stuff is so depressing,” he said. “These kids were born and their lives’ paths were set at birth. Here we are changing that path.” While Beninger filmed Ricardo’s Story, he came across the property eventually purchased as a site for a bigger shelter he intends to build to house more young girls need-
ing help. Since 2009, Beninger has been helping a half dozen girls in a smaller shelter in Cusco where he lives with his wife and their young child. “With the girls we have in the shelter, it’s super gratifying because you get to see the change you are making,” he said. The documentary night will include a short film made on the work the foundation is doing through their shelter and the dire need for more space. “We’ve told the social workers hundreds of times that we have no more space, but they still bring us kids and it’s really hard to say no. I’m not going to say no to an 11-year-old kid that’s been forced into prostitution for the last year… if she’s not going to stay with us, I know where she’s going to go and it just makes be feel so bad,” said Beninger. A Freeride Entertainment film called Through Their Eyes about several girls from a shelter’s first trip to Machu Picchu will also be shown. The documentary night will be held at the Prestige on Friday, September 20. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the films start showing at 7 p.m. Tickets are $10 and are available at the door.
Mountain guide and Nelson resident David Lussier helped show Victoria Lawrence-Jeffery how to drill holes in the rock and install hangers that were part of a long slack-line that was being set up. “The hanger should be positioned so that it’s in the direction of the pull,” said Lussier. Lawrence-Jeffery was a quick study and in no time had hammered the hanger into place. Though there was a minor incident near the end of the day, involving a young girl falling from a relatively low height, Hempsall said first responders were called out of an abundance of cau-
tion. “Just a sore bum in the end,” said the father of the girl after the event. “Didn’t even need x-rays. It was an unfortunate way for her to end the event as all of the kids were having so much fun with the variety of activities.” Over $1200 was raised through donations, a raffle and silent auction at the festival and the money will be used to help create new routes in the Castlegar area and other locations in the Kootenays. The aim of the association is to increase access to climbing areas through the building and maintenance of trails, stairs and relay platforms.

Sculpture Talk
2012
Welcome to our regular feature introducing the artists behind the sculptures in this year’s Castlegar SculptureWalk. work as the mighty wingspread eagle he displayed last year.
‘The Spirit of Family’ mines a different vein of imagery using the same medium. Inset in a protective enclosure symbolizing the home, greater community, world, and universe, a spirit family rests. The recognizable male and female adult figures bend their heads together touching, front arms entwined together overhead. Their other limbs reach down to grasp the hands of their spirit child between them, their disembodied ends combining with that of the child. The entire work sits on a half sphere, representing the northern hemisphere.
Spring Shine ‘The Spirit of Family’ (soapstone) Last year, Argenta sculptor Spring Shine took home third place in the Peoples Choice award (a tie with Slocan Valley artist Rabi’a) for his majestic eagle appropriately titled Soaring. He returns in 2013 with another soapstone work – ‘The Spirit of Family’. It is a more personal work perhaps, but just as enchanting. Spring has crafted a work that is harmonious, exuding peacefulness and closeness. Tranquil, rendered in beautiful steatite soapstone he has sourced locally, it is as wonderfully balanced a
The sculpture utilizes the open space created within it very nicely, adding to the harmony and symmetry of the work. The upright nature of the work is countered by the half globe that makes up the lower part of ‘The Spirit of Family’. The colours of the soapstone are strongly contrasted when oiled or textured, adding to the loveliness of the piece as a whole. “The figures are deliberately abstract, as they embody rather than represent,” Spring says. “ I’ve tried to capture the importance of family, and its role in the expansion found around them – the home, community, the broader worlds and civilizations.
imperfections is to recognize and focus on the sanctity and priority of family. Of course, beyond family there are more groupings like community, collectiveness by proximity, commonality in thought and actions, and so on. Everything is connected, so to me, the spirit family is the core, but ultimately affects the entire planet. I know that the best way to heal the planet is to change and heal myself. This is what I hope my work conveys to those who view it.” Spring has been sculpting for almost 20 years but like every artist feels a connection and visceral thrill in creating from raw materials. “When I transfer a vision, idea or feeling – as I’ve done here – into something as solid and seemingly unyielding as stone, I feel like anything is possible. I experience daily joy as I see the genesis of the inspiration over time. I know that joy is expressed in each sculpture I create.” Viewers will no doubt experience the same pleasure and appreciation he does. Admiring the scope and artistry of the sculpture, the feeling and thought infused in “The Spirit of Family’ is apparent in its warmth and humanity.
Susan Geissler ‘Raincoat Kids’ (bronze) Viewer favourite Susan Geissler returns to Sculpturewalk for a fourth straight year with her playful, joyful sculpture ‘Raincoat Kids’.
SPONSORED by
‘Raincoat Kids’ is two dynamic bronzes; a boy and girl dressed in yellow slickers and red rubber boots revel in the inclement weather. His booted right foot is ready to stomp an imaginary puddle for the sheer delight of doing so while his sister/playmate arches skyward, arms and fingers spread joyously wide, her tongue stuck out catching the drops as they fall. It is a moment of exuberance that everyone viewing the sculpture can instantly relate to. Who hasn’t been outside on a rainy day splashing in puddles and catching raindrops as a child? Geissler unerringly captures the wonder and innocence of a favourite childhood pastime.
“This work stems directly from my childhood memories,” she says. “Delightful times with my siblings playing in the rain was my obvious inspiration, and I think I’ve captured the simple fun we had in the two children depicted here.” She is considered one of the foremost sculptors of human figures in the United States, and it is easy to see why. Combining her background skills in anatomical drawing and fine arts, Geissler’s sculptures are always wonderfully composed and structured, with the warmth of humanity emanating from them always. Intensive research and the necessity of figurative exactness results in a select number of new works emerging from her western New York state studio annually. Her reputation well established through numerous public commissions, exhibits and displays, Geissler is content to show primarily in galleries and occasional public events such as Sculpturewalk. We are fortunate for her continuing presence here, defined by exemplary human slices of life like ‘Raincoat Kids’.

Her aluminum historical study last year entitled ‘There!’ was a bit of a departure. The figure of a young lookout directing traffic on the Underground Railway for slaves channeling north to freedom was, as all her human studies are, superbly rendered. The traumatic nature of the subject at hand – an enhancement of one figure in her monument to the movement that is permanently installed at Lewiston, New York - and the deliberate lack of colour made it powerful and understandably darker. Her entries here over the years illustrate Geissler’s scope and range in representational sculpture that moves and enlightens the viewer, whether they are whimsical portrayals of everyday life or studies of historical significance.
Inspired by childhood times with her siblings, the piece is reminiscent of the work she displayed in 2010, ‘Ma, Can I Keep Him?’ which portrayed a young girl plaintively holding up a reluctant ginger cat. It won a Peoples Choice award for its emotive resonance. Similarly, ‘The Mom’ two years ago compellingly captured the humanity of the subject, creating an instant bond be-
