SENIORS MEETING
This photo was taken in front of the Clarke - Ritchie Packing house, which was located in Keremeos across the street from the fromer railway station, east of Seventh Avenue. The photo is believed to be of the packing house crew, and was probably taken in the late 1920s or early 1930s. Do you recognize anyone in the photograph? If you do, we would like to hear from you. Give us a call at 250-499-2653. By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Clarke - Ritchie Packing House was located across the street from the Keremeos Hotel, site of an empty concrete slab today. Former Mayor and longtime resident Francis Peck recognized several faces in the above photo, recalling names like Dundas,
Crowder, Mattice, Pettepice, Harris and Lewis. “I believe it burned down,” she said of the packinghouse’s ultimate fate. “Keremeos once had three packing houses and a cannery,” Peck recalled, “ my first job was in a packing house, for 30 cents an hour.” Peck recalls working conditions as being quite primitive, with outdoor plumbing, and
no heat in the building housing the packing lines. “I remember ladies with their feet in boxes, filled with newspaper, or whatever, to try and keep their feet warm,” she said, “the train would pull up alongside the packing house and wait for us to finish packing. The boxes were loaded into refrigerated cars. “It was a big business at one time.”

Pesky Good Neighbour Bylaw comes before council again By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Keremeos council reconsidered a motion made at a previous council meeting during the Monday, March 3 regular meeting of council. A resolution bound for the Union of BC Municipalities requesting the UBCM to petition the province over 911 dialing protocols in hotel and motel telephone networks was brought before council for reconsideration. The motion’s main proponent, Councillor Arlow voiced second thoughts on the matter, requesting the motion be brought back for council’s reconsideration. This time council turned down the resolution unanimously. Staff updated council with respect to the village’s Climate Action Revenue Incentive Program (CARIP) report. The conditional grant is dependent upon the village compiling an annual carbon tax calculation. The grant is equivalent to the amount of carbon taxes paid out by the village. Last year the grant was worth $1,092.42 to Keremeos. Staff advised council time spent compiling the report cost more
than the grant was worth. Council received the staff report for information purposes, Mayor Bauer noting the program was a “money maker for the province, not for small communities.” Council deliberated two proposed capital projects - a dog park within the village and an electric vehicle plug in. Staff advised a dog park would cost approximately $10,000 to set up, using village property behind Sixth Avenue, between Fourth and Fifth Street. Mayor Bauer spoke against the project, citing increased liabilities for the village, noise factors and a lack of need for such a facility in the community. Councillors Cowling and Thielmann disagreed, arguing for further investigation and public consultation. Council agreed to solicit residents within 100 metres of the proposed park in order to further assess public opinion. Council agreed to lobby MLA Linda Larson for grant funding to provide an electric vehicle charging facility, which staff calculated would cost up to $7,500. A full charge would
take up to six hours, with cost of electricity ranging from $2 to $4 per charge. The tourist infocentre parking lot was suggested as a location for the facility, which might generate village revenue from motorists stopping for a few hours to use village services while their vehicle was being recharged. Council passed a motion to preapprove Victory Hall washroom upgrades. The good neighbour bylaw came before council once again, this time for further scrutiny with regard to references over use of bows in the village. Some minor wording regarding bow types was requested (compound bows were specified), resulting in council rescinding third reading of the bylaw to make the necessary amendments at second reading.

The Review
Publisher: Don Kendall 605 7th Ave, Keremeos Box 130, Keremeos, B.C. V0X 1N0
Editorial No apparent oversight for funded position Crime Stoppers Regional Coordinator Al Sismey attracted the attention of Regional District Okanagan Similkameen Board of Directors as well as regional media last week. Sismey discussed his apprehensions over potential changes to the program after a previous one on one discussion with RCMP Superintendent Kevin Hewco about the role Crime Stoppers plays in the region. Sismey feared Hewco’s plans would bring the program’s operation more closely under the operating wing of the RCMP - at least that was what Sismey claimed. But later in the discussion, Sismey admitted that Hewco felt that, based on a work load of 400 tips annually, the Crime Stoppers Coordinator’s job really wasn’t a full time position. The position is funded by the regional district to the tune of $65,000 annually. Up until now, it would appear that there has been very little oversight by the regional district as to whether they were getting their money’s worth or not. Former RCMP detachment commanders have apparently failed to raise the issue, as have past regional boards, so now that Superintendent Hewco has opened the can of worms, maybe its time for some scrutinization of the position by those who are footing the bill - the regional district. There are communities in the regional district who have been asking for programs like Speed Watch - Area “D” Director Tom Siddon has expressed a desire to see such a program on Lakehill Road in Kaleden, for instance. Working with Superintendent Hewco’s recommendations, this might be an ideal opportunity for the regional district to find a way to provide such extra police services within the present budget.

THE
Business alliance to battle MMBC recycling fees By Jeff Nagel Black Press An alliance of business groups opposed to the new Multi Material BC recycling system are demanding the province halt the planned May 19 launch and go back to the drawing board. MMBC, an industry stewardship group, is poised to take responsibility for curbside blue box collection – with more containers and material types collected than before – while charging businesses for the recycling of the packaging and paper they generate. But it’s been in a bitter fight with small business groups that complain they are set to pay punishingly high fees, which will then be passed on to consumers. The battle took a new turn Monday, when the Canadian Federation of Independent Business and eight other associations launched a campaign in B.C. newspapers and online at rethinkitbc.ca to amplify the pressure on Victoria. CFIB provincial affairs
director Mike Klassen predicted job losses and some business closures as a result of the MMBC regulations. “This is public policy run amok,” he said. “We are asking British Columbians to talk to the B.C. government to push the pause button on its reckless and red tape-laden program.” B.C. Agriculture Council vice-chair Stan Vander Waal said farmers can’t readily stop packaging strawberries and blueberries in plastic clamshells, because retailers insist that’s what consumers want. “We have to wear the cost,” he said, adding MMBC fees will cost his Chilliwack farm $60,000 to $100,000 a year. “It goes directly against growing agriculture.” Canadian Newspaper Association chairman Peter Kvarnstrom, who is publisher of a paper in Sechelt, warned the new system will be “catastrophic” to B.C. community and daily newspapers, resulting in job losses in an already challenged industry and reduced service to communities.
The opposition groups say they support the aim of the program – to make generators of packaging pay to recycle it – but they dispute the fees and say multinational consumer goods firms like Unilever and Walmart control MMBC and are manipulating it to their benefit, not that of local businesses. Most of the fees for container waste are double or even quadruple what businesses in Ontario pay to a similar agency. Newspapers say they face a $14-million-a-year bite out of their operations because of the 20 cents per kilogram they will pay on newsprint, compared to less than half a penny in Ontario. They contend a high proportion of newsprint is already recycled in B.C. through blue boxes. Kvarnstrom said newspapers are considering options to create their own newsprint collection system – a move that could also deprive MMBC of newsprint revenue and undermine the program’s viability.

also warned small B.C. magazines will pay not only for their own paper recycling, but will also effectively subsidize big U.S. magazines like Harper’s or Vogue that will be exempt from MMBC fees on magazines mailed into B.C. Printers predict some orders will shift to presses in the U.S. or Alberta to skirt the fees, costing jobs in B.C. MMBC managing director Allen Langdon said MMBC’s higher fees are because they fully finance the program and ensure service for multi-family apartments and rural depots, in contrast to Ontario’s more limited focus on single-family homes. He said B.C.’s successful container deposit system also means there’s less recyclable material left here for container stewards to collect and sell, so fees have to be higher to cover the system costs. Langdon said no business is forced to join MMBC, adding groups like the newspaper industry are free to develop their own system.

Reading program racks up impressive results By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Elementary classes at Similkameen Elementary Secondary School went on a reading blitz on Friday, February 28, coming up with some impressive reading results. The school is the only one in District 53 that uses Accelerated Reader software from Renaissance Learning, an American based educational software company. AR encourages “substantial differentiated reading practice,” based on each student’s independent reading level, and helps teachers set personalized goals for each student.The program helps guide students to books difficult enough to keep them challenged, but not so difficult to cause frustration. In addition, AR helps teachers monitor students’ vocabulary growth, literacy skills development, and other reading skills. Part of the program also involves students taking an
AR quiz in order to assess the student’s level of comphrehension, offering more than 150,000 quizzes of five types on both fiction and nonfiction titles. Friday’s reading day was based on a Renaissance Learning initiatve, the goal being to have readers in the program meet five million quizzes in one day. It wasn’t until after SESS registered for the initiative that instructor Rick Johnson found out that Canadian schools could not contribute to the testing totals. “It meant we weren’t eligible for any prizes,” he said, “but in the end they fell shy of their goal, with a total of 4,987, 949. “Guess they should have included us Canadians.” Classes from SESS participated throughout the day in varying degrees in the program, with students submitting a total of 800 quizzes, (passing 769), for an 86 per cent comprehension level. “We had 130 students read 4. 5 million words on Friday,”
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
said grade seven teacher Rick Johnson. “Some of the students who hadn’t yet done a quiz did four or five on that day alone.” An extra level of competitiveness was added with each student’s successful test resulting in points for their house league team. Points awarded to each student were related to the size and difficulty of the work being read by the student. Johnson said the exercise appeared to have really boosted student’s appetites for reading, noting that even normally reluctant readers were “totally jazzed” by the event. “While it was disappointing to hear that our totals might not contribute to the overall event, our own event was positive and will definitely be something we consider doing again. “The Accelerated Reader is part of our reading program. It gives students a wider range of choice in what they read, without sacrificing accountability,” Johnson said.

Keremeos RCMP Detachment Commander Mike Gallagher addressed the Seniors Society at their AGM last Wednesday, March 5.
Seniors society no exception when it comes to a scarcity of volunteers Upwards of 30 members of the Keremos Senior Centre Society gathered for the society’s annual general meeting on March 5. Elections for executive took place, with few candidates offering to throw their hat in the ring. Noting the Seniors Centre wasn’t alone in member apathy, Gary Billon, who conducted the election, advised the membership if they wished to see change, they needed to step forward. “All I hear are complaints,” Billon said, “they are minor but they’re still there.” Alex Fomenko was acclaimed President, as was Vice President Pat McBride. Candidates for secretary were more reluctant in stepping up, but eventually Claire Carleton offered to let her name stand - to which someone mirthfully responded, “If you’re standing, why are you sitting down?” Treasurer Pearl Seired was elected by acclamation as well. “What are you running for?” one member of the audience could be heard quietly asking another. “The hills,” came the reply. Two representatives of the membership at large - John Borke and Bonnie Burns - were also selected (acclamation) to represent the society body as a whole. The craft ladies offered two cheques - one to the society in the order of $1,000, and one to Orchard Haven in the amount of $500. Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer was also in attendance. RCMP detachment Commander Mike Gallagher was

Students good as gold at regional skills competition By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Trades students from Similkameen Elementary Secondary School scored some impressive results at a recent competition in Kelowna. Parmeet Brar and Brody Porter finished with a gold medal in Skills Canada Regional Competition that took place in Kelowna on the weekend of March 8-9. Colton Lagace and Mikka Kangas came away with a bronze medal in gravity cars. Jagdeep Sumal had a gold medal finish in the auto tech category, while Chance Wabnegger took a silver medal in construc-
tion. SESS fielded 13 competitors, helping School District 53 to win gold in every competition. “The South Okanagan and Similkameen will be well represented provincially,” said Career Education Coordinator and Technology Education Teacher Boyd Turnbull. The gold medalists will be going to Abbotsford to compete in the provincials on April 9. If successful there, they will go to nationals in Toronto. A first place finish in the nationals will see the road take an international turn, as the next stage in competition are the worlds in Brazil.

Changes to Crime Stoppers program would be a bust, says coordinator Coordinator of program fears police involvement will reduce effectiveness, but RCMP Superintendent says that’s not what he has in mind By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Crime Stoppers Coordinator Al Sismey delivered a year end report to the regional district board at the March 9 regular board meeting. Under questioning by Penticton Director Gary Litke, Sismey admitted the Crime Stoppers program was at risk over the possibility of having Crime Stoppers linked to a crime prevention program run by police. “All of you must understand what the program is all about,” Sismey told the Protective Services Committee, “we are not an arm of the police. We need to stand alone in order to gain the confidence of the public that their tips will truly be anonymous.” Sismey insisted that any move to have the Crime Stoppers program run “off the corner of a police desk” would be doomed to failure. He went on to add that he hadn’t had sufficient time to explain to Penticton RCMP Superintendent Kevin Hewco how much time his position as Regional Crime
Stoppers Coordinator entailed, noting that Hewco felt the position wasn’t a full time job. Litke noted to date there has been no consultation between the RCMP and the regional district with respect to any changes to the program.The regional district currently funds Sismey’s wages through a budgeted line item in general government in the amount of $65,000. It was pointed out Superintendent Hewco was also scheduled to make an appearance before the board at an upcoming meeting. “Much of this discussion is hypothetical since the police have not yet spoken to us about it,” noted one director. Members of the board tended to agree that Crime Stoppers, which fielded 400 tips last year, should remain an entity at arm’s length from the police. Oliver Director Ron Hovanes suggested a pre-meeting with Superintendent Hewco might be in order, adding that the board respected the work of Crime Stoppers. RCMP Superintendent Kevin Hewco responded to the controversy on Monday, March 10, telling the Review that he has no intention of jeopardizing the Crime Stoppers program. “I’ve been conducting a review of operations, and I believe the same dollars can deliver even more services to the regional district, programs such as Block Watch, Citizens on Patrol, and Speed Watch,” he said.
“I’m not talking about changing Crime Stoppers or how it operates with respect to the police. I want to enhance the program.” Hewco plans to meet with the regional district at next week’s board meeting. Keremeos currently pays 1.12 per cent of the Crime Stoppers wage costs borne by the regional district, or $730.92, while Area “B” and Area “G” contributes .66 per cent ($429.47) and 1.49 per cent ($969.62) respectively. In the Keremeos detachment, 10 tips were reported to Crime Stoppers between December 2003 and December 2007, and 17 tips were reported between December 2008 and December 2013. Crime Stoppers serves the whole regional district. The organization is governed by a board of volunteer directors who meet on a monthly basis to set policy, decide on tip rewards and deal with the operation of the organization. Sismey’s position as regional coordinator between the program, media and the police is funded soley through the regional district. The organization itself receives no government funding and needs to raise between $20,000 - $30,000 dollars annually to pay the day to day operating costs, which includes such things as the lease/upkeep on the vehicle, tip answering service, liability insurance, rewards, training for volunteers and a small amount for office supplies, equipment (computers etc) software program, etc.

Peanuts are a healthy snack. They are nutritionally sound, containing vitamin B and E, minerals, protein, fibre and the amino acid, arginine, which is touted to be beneficial to blood pressure. Peanuts are legumes, a member of the pea family not the nut family. One or two ounces per day is a good dose of peanuts.
DRUG ADVERSE REACTIONS
Seniors go to hospital emergency departments for various reasons. Often it is due to a drug adverse reaction. Two classes of drugs that cause almost two-thirds of these visits are anticoagulants (“blood thinners”) and diabetic medications including insulin. The reason is that constant testing needs to be done to ensure proper dosing. Our pharmacists can help you understand the importance of testing.
GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP?
There is no health advantage to being an early riser. The important thing is to get enough sleep. If you don’t get enough sleep, your reaction times mentally and physically can be impaired and your immune system can be compromised. Eight hours of sleep per day is ideal.
FORGIVENESS IS GOOD MEDICINE
There are many non-drug methods of reducing blood pressure and symptoms of depression. One method that is definitely helpful is the idea of forgiveness. Many people hold grudges for a long time and this has effect on their mental and physical states of health. Forgiving those that hurt you could give you a feeling of great well-being and free you from anxiety and hostility. Forgiveness is good medicine. You will enjoy our pharmacy. We do our best to provide you with hassle-free service. Give us a try!
