friends&neighbours by Leah Blain had my two one-hour shows. The first time I didn’t have any music and talked for an hour straight, and it was very painful. The first episode was kind of rough, and it got easier and easier.” Dylan’s show is an entertaining mix of sports news updates (he scrupulously credits his sources), along with colour commentary intertwined with sports gossip (which sports star shut down his Twitter account), and personal thoughts on sporting events and history (Wayne Gretzky’s move to L.A. was a positive because it made hockey accessible to the world). He also does what sports commentators rarely do–he explains acronyms as he uses them. A lot of work goes into a live show, he explains. “The script takes a lot longer than people think. For my show, I can take upward of five hours getting all the information ready. I’m always nervous on the final seconds of the computer countdown (to show time). You can never be perfect but you always strive for it. There’s always a sigh of relief when it’s done and I go back home and relax.” His parents, Graham and Kim, are very supportive and his siblings, Brent, Vicky, Justin and Koltin, think it’s pretty cool that he has his own radio show, he says. Dylan is hoping go to Mt. Royal or SAIT in Calgary after he graduates for a broadcasting diploma. “My dream job is Hockey Night in Canada. Don Cherry is my idol. One of my goals is to be the next Don Cherry, but maybe not as wildly dressed.”

It’s 4:00 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon and the notice on the door asks people to be quiet as live shows are in progress. Dylan Dodge is at the studio early; he goes on live in one hour. He has logs to prepare, but his scripts are ready. Every Tuesday and Thursday, Dylan’s show, Sports For You, airs live from 5 to 6 p.m on Voice of the Shuswap FM 93.7. At 16 years old, Dylan is the youngest of the volunteers who has a radio show on the Shuswap’s community radio station. It was a natural progression for the sports enthusiast who enjoys announcing games as much as he enjoys playing. He started off by announcing road hockey games and school scrimmages. “When I was around 12, I took my camera to my brother’s game, set up my camera on a tripod and commented over it, and made copies for all the parents. It was lots of fun.” In the last couple of years, Dylan’s voice has become familiar around the arena since Salmon Arm Minor Hockey Administrator Roy Sakaki had asked him to announce some of the minor hockey games. He has put in some gruelling hours during tournaments, and has faced some interesting challenges. “On spring break the PeeWee Tier 3 Provincials were hosted here in Salmon Arm. That was lots of fun, I was there from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. for four days. I met a lot of great people.” He was also asked to announce for the BC Female Midget Provincials who were playing against a team from Kazakhstan. “I worked with a translator for a few days. Pronunciation is important.” Although announcing has long been an interest for Dylan, it was other local talent that inspired him, particularly the SilverBacks long-term announcer. “What really got me excited was Myron Crown–he’s just amazing. That’s what spiked my interest. I got to sit in the booth for a few of the [Silver]Backs games.” He also admires the SilverBacks colour commentator Scott Campbell, but announcing is what has him hooked. “I like announcing the goals–when you announce it and the fans are going crazy.” Dylan is going into his final year at high school and plans to pursue a broadcasting career. It was Roy Sakaki who encouraged Dylan to get involved in the community radio station. “I started volunteering in April, under Steve Corrie. I worked the board and learned; he took me under his wing. In June Steve cut me loose and I

Fire departments practice Residents urged to be ‘firesmart’
As the continued hot dry weather has elevated areas of the Shuswap to high or extreme fire danger rating, the Shuswap Emergency Program (SEP) and CSRD Fire Services are urging residents to ‘FireSmart’ their homes and properties as the regional and municipal fire departments gear up for wildfire season. The 17 fire departments within the Regional District now have access to equipment that can water down an entire neighbourhood as a preventative measure when a wildfire is threatening. “Two Structural Protection Units (SPUs), containing a configuration of sprinklers, hoses and other related equipment, can be easily positioned to create a wet line of protection for up to 35 homes at a time,” says CSRD Fire Services Coordinator Kenn Mount, “depending on housing density and size of the lots. One of the units is housed in the Columbia region and the other in the Shuswap. We currently have 60 firefighters trained on these units and we continue to train additional firefighters for our ‘strike teams.’” Residents who have ‘interface’ properties (i.e. bordering on or within forests) can take the extra precaution of having their own sprinkler system to wet down their homes and buildings.
“Sprinkler systems are simple, effective and safe tools to use in protecting structures from threatening forest fires,” says SEP Coordinator Cliff Doherty. “Not only does it dampen structures and trees which reduce the threat of ignition, it also helps cool buildings during exposure to radiant heat from the wildfire.” There are other ways residents can decrease their risk during a wildfire which costs very little and reduce fire danger greatly. Some FireSmart tips include: • Create at least a 10-metre wide clearing around your house and buildings. • Trim the branches on all trees within your clearing to a height of three metres. • Clear a one-metre strip around each building down to bare mineral soil. • Keep your grass watered, cut and remove dead grass. • Ensure your home is easily accessible to emergency workers. The Shuswap SPU will be displayed at the Ranchero/Deep Creek Fire Department Open House being held on Saturday, August 17 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., 9505 Firehall Frontage Road, Salmon Arm, BC. For more information call CSRD Fire Services Coordinator Kenn Mount at (250) 833-5945.

Gallery presents new work by Salmon Arm-born artist Salmon Arm Art Gallery is pleased to present “A Documentation of My Private Suffering,” new paintings by Jeremy Shantz. The exhibition opens Friday, September 6, at 7:00 p.m., and continues until Saturday, September 28, 2013. Born in Salmon Arm, British Columbia in 1986, Jeremy Shantz received his BFA with honours at UBCOkanagan and Emily Carr, studying classical painting, sculpture and film. He now lives and works in Montreal,QC. Obsessive collector and sculptor of things, Shantz lives and bleeds for moments of interdisciplinary collaboration. “There is a subjectivity inherently built into the understanding of artwork that we all fundamentally accept. You see something, I see something, and collectively we accept the basic, objective characteristics of the object in front of us – what it’s made of, how it’s displayed, and anything we can infer from
a wall label. Then we respectively run with it from there. In a sense, a work of art has just as many points of entry as there are viewers to find them. For this reason art is the highest form of spiritual intelligence for myself. Against words and thoughts, it addresses another language. A language that stands time and crosses borders, especially when it stands as witness to the present. The first responsibility of the artist is to testify. It defines us.” The series of paintings takes into account Jeremy’s use of art as therapy in dealing with traumatic events of the past, while considering his navigation of the future. Twelve large-scale works will be at the Salmon Arm Art Gallery for the month of September. This exhibition is sponsored by Gail Dyer. Gallery hours are Tuesday to Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Coffee Break and Artist Talk is on Thursday, September 19 at 2:00 p.m.

MY HOLIDAY PLANS WERE INTERRUPTED
I had planned to take a 10-day trip as far as Dauphin, Manitoba but while still in BC I received an email regarding one of the part-time jobs I have, so I decided to go home and deal with it rather than go to Dauphin. After two days at home and completing the work I needed to do, I flew Westjet to Saskatoon so I could attend two functions. I had reserved an economy car to rent but I was upgraded to a car that seemed three times bigger than my SmartCar. And it took three times as much fuel. The back seat I did not need. And it beeped each time I locked it, which bugged me. The car I rented was unlocked. Even the trunk could be opened without a key. How could I leave my laptop in it? I phoned the company’s staff in the airport to report it, and was told all its cars are left unlocked to prevent them from being stolen. Go figure!
TWO REUNIONS IN MY HOME PROVINCE
At Yorkton, five nurses from my small graduating class met for lunch and we stayed in the restaurant for several hours. We were like sisters while in training, and that closeness remains now that we are in our mid-70s. At Watson, my hometown, I attended a family reunion on my mother’s side, and 30 relatives met to celebrate the life of an aunt who passed away in April. It started with lunch in the senior’s centre, a wonderful new facility. I was pleased to learn that two cousins read this column every week. The next morning I had coffee at Esso, the local hangout, with two cousins. One had a heart attack in December and described the pain, and then having doctors insert a stent through an artery in his wrist. The first two attempts failed, and they tried a third, then pushed it a little farther and spread it at the blockage in an artery in his heart. All of a sudden the pain was gone, he felt warm and strong and ready to go back to work in his tire shop. But he had to stay in bed for two days.
OBSERVED BETWEEN SASKATOON AND YORKTON
On the third day I made my way back to Salmon Arm. Westjet is just wonderful! It has so many hour-long flights that hop from city to city that making connections is a breeze. It is so computerized that I was able to print my two outgoing boarding passes before I left my house. Imagine! I enjoyed seeing the big blue Saskatchewan sky, the huge puffy white clouds, the flat green fields that go as far as the eye can see in every direction, the roads that go N to S and E to W, the highways that often follow the railway tracks, caragana hedges around some farmyards, sloughs full of water from heavy rains, and newspapers that were owned by different chains than BC’s.

I was sad to see so many towns that are dying, and many that are identified only by a sign with their name showing where they used to be. I had forgotten about bugs on the windshield. Contrails were observed several times, and chemtrails filled the sky the day I left.
snopes.com says it is probably false because there is a nothing in a penny that will reduce the swelling of a bite. The story of the cure started circulating in 2006 and said it’s the copper that works. But the American penny is now composed of 97.5 per cent zinc and only 2.5 per cents copper.
Yes, we know the music is loud, especially in the evenings when the air is still. Yes, we know the festival brings thousands of people to Salmon Arm. Yes, we know they leave behind millions of dollars in economic benefit. But it’s only three days, folks, so let’s not complain.
The Sunday Province newspaper has three pages devoted to “Slow tripping in the Shuswap. Three peaceful days on a houseboat.” You can go to the library and look through back issues for Aug. 11, Travel Section E, pages 1, 2 and 3. Noah Sturdy was the pilot on the Waterway houseboat. The writer was very impressed. “The seemingly never-ending Shuswap Lake lay before us.” Mentioned are two other houseboat companies, several restaurants, wineries and places to shop.
IT’S THE ROOTS & BLUES FESTIVAL WEEKEND
ROUTES AND BLUES IN SEYMOUR ARM
Last year I enjoyed suppers in half a dozen community halls the week before the Roots & Blues Festival in Salmon Arm, but I didn’t go on any hikes before each meal and I didn’t stay to hear the band after. This year I went to only one supper, in Seymour Arm, 132 km away, of which 43 km was on a gravel forestry road. My car with little tires didn’t like it, especially the washboard. Fat tires would have been better. Near the table in the park where Roots & Blues festival employees from Holland and Germany were selling $20 passes to enjoy the band that evening, and have a delicious $11 supper prepared by local cooks, I set up a table with historical books on Seymour Arm. They were written by Gwen Bauer and Estelle Noakes, and published by me, which meant I paid for the production and printing, and now the selling. Most people already had the book, because Ron and Louise Kriese sold hundreds of them in Daniel’s Store in 2009 and 2010. When people saw my name tag, many said how much they enjoy reading this column. I asked where they get the Lakeshore News, and they said at Daniel’s Store. Thanks, Ron and Louise! One person who didn’t have to look at my nametag was Jae Susoff, who lives in Seymour Arm. When he was morning DJ at the radio station and I owned this newspaper, we pulled off some great April Fool’s jokes. Which one did you enjoy the most?
ZIPLOC BAGS WITH WATER & PENNIES REALLY WORK
Two weeks ago I asked you to let me know if you have success keeping out flies with a Ziploc bag with water and a few pennies. Judy Wilkinson says she has used the method for many years and it works like a charm. She takes three to five bags of different lengths and hangs them in an open doorway. Flies do not enter, and people get a kick out of having to dodge the bags.
PENNIES DO NOT EASE WASP BITE

MY GRANDSON IS THE BEST PITCHER IN CANADA
Seventeen-year-old Colton Wood of Victoria was part of Team BC at 2013 Canada Games in Sherbrooke, Quebec last week. He pitched the final game against Ontario, which led BC to win 5-0 and a gold medal. I was able to watch the entire game and Colton’s fantastic 88-94 mph pitching on my computer by downloading a program which allowed streaming. Canadian scouts must have watched every team last week. They chose 26 of the best players to represent Canada at the World Games. Colton was one. He received a call to be part of Team Canada. After only one day at home, he flew to Australia with the others for a week of practise. Six players will be sent home. The rest will be flown to Taiwan to compete for the 18U World Cup. All Colton’s friends and family are thrilled, especially his father Wally, mother Linda and three grandmothers: Phyllis Wood of Victoria, me in Salmon Arm, and Rose Haller of the High Bar Band in Clinton. Rose is Linda’s biological mother.
“I GIVE HIM A GOOD SHAKE!”
A woman observed a new neighbour moving in. When she seemed settled, she went in and greeted her. “Where is your husband?” she asked. She pointed and replied: “He’s in that metal container on the shelf. When I get mad at him I pick him up and shake the hell out of him!” sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

Letters to the Editor The tin hat wearers are not going away
Here in the “sunny” (??) Okanagan, we have just been subjected to two days of continued bombardment by the “geo-engineering” boys; also known as the “weather modification” crew. I have watched the jets appear over the horizon spewing out their long trail of non-dissipating crude which thins out, leaving our beautiful skies hazy. At times they cut short the pattern and shut the spraying off, leaving a quickly disappearing contrail. At other times the heavy day-long lingering spray is not even turned on until they are partway over the valley. It happens in varying directions, on both usual and some very

A century old
Tenancy Act should be changed
When Sally Scales worked on Greg Kyllo’s campaign, she was trained in door-knocking by Jan Turner. Jan and her husband retired in Salmon Arm so she could be near her father, Ron Turner, who turns 100 in August. Ron’s birthday is on Aug. 16 and a reception organized by his daughter is being held on Aug. 18. She invites friends, aquaintances and fruit customers to an open house at 2181 73 Ave NE (next to Captain’s Cove Marina) between 2:00 and 5:00 p.m. He still lives alone on Turner’s Orchards, across from SASS Jackson. He stopped selling apples and plums just a couple of years ago. Contributed by Sally Scales.
Several weeks ago [July 26, 2013] a story appeared in the Lakeshore News regarding the heartbreaking story about a senior who attempted to assist two people by renting his house out to them. In the story, the series of events were simply astounding and almost unbelievable how these renters wrecked his home, refused to pay rent, and used the system to protect themselves from any action by the landlord. I am appalled by this story and it is my opinion the names of these people (the renters) should be made public information to warn other property owners to be aware of these problem renters as they basically tried every trick to avoid eviction and refuse to repay this man for all of the damage caused. In following up on this story with the paper that printed it, I have been informed that to publicize this couple’s names and photos constitutes defamation or liable … I can’t believe this as they were living in the house when the damage was caused.
In fact, he had difficulty evicting these people when he finally had enough of their crap and is now faced with an extensive repair bill. It is my understanding these renters refuse to compensate him for any damage. What can be done about this terrible situation where it appears that landlords have lost control over “their” property? I am not involved personally, but I almost became ill when I read the story and as for this very reason, I refused to rent my home when I took a temporary work assignment out of the area; instead, I paid someone to look after our home while we were away. I will never rent to anyone, for any reason, until these laws are changed. Our provincial politicians must get involved and they must change the legislation that protects such problem renters. I can only hope that Greg Kyllo (our local MLA) reads this concern and might take this on as an action item for his constituents. B. Campbell, Sorrento

Vaccine safety doubts may have serious consequences
I feel some reluctance in responding further to Dr. Gage, however the Anti Vaccine Movement (AVM) is of growing concern with serious consequences if it gains wide acceptance. I will not address his various misquotations and misunderstandings of my argument; rather, I would urge any interested reader to review my original letter (July 19, 2013) and let that suffice. Yet there is one item that does need to be addressed: the issue of facts concerning the supposed ‘controversy both inside and outside of the healthcare community’ over vaccine safety and efficacy. It will be of interest to readers that the AVM expanded significantly after a study was conducted by Dr. Wakefield in Britain in 1998 that linked the vaccines for mumps, measles and rubella to autism. The fact is that this study was discredited by a British medical panel in 2010 and his paper was retracted by the medical journal, The Lancet. The public, however, suffered from Dr. Wakefield’s claim; vaccination rates plummeted and the number of measles cases soared. Since then The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the USA have provided an overwhelming body of research by the world’s leading scientists that denies any link between vaccines and autism. Any suggestion otherwise is incorrect. These facts are not simply ‘dogmatic repetition of the status quo’ as Dr. Gage would have it. What the public sees, however, is a spokesperson of the AVM, Jenny McCarthy, whose opinions,
Women’s Emergency Shelter Salmon Arm 250 832-9616 Revelstoke 250 837-1111
though genuinely held, are broadcast on an equal footing with the scientific facts. Is this the type of research (alternative opinion - not fact), that the public are being encouraged to base their informed decision on? ‘Passing judgement’ on this is not ‘alarming,’ it is necessary if we value facts over unsubstantiated opinion. Fearghus K. Dicker, Salmon Arm
Why higher gas prices here?
Can someone please, please, please tell me why our gas prices are so high? I don’t understand how small, out-of-the-way towns have gas that’s 5 to 6 cents cheaper than we are! Falkland and Ashton Creek are two towns I have been through that have cheaper gas prices than us and they are in the middle of nowhere! Kamloops recently was 126.9. If it’s the gas and oil companies that set the prices, why haven’t ours come down along with everyone around us?! So, this leads me to believe that the local proprietors are choosing to *not* lower the prices. Again I ask, why? If I am wrong, can one of the owners of any gas station please send in a letter of explanation? I’m sure I and many others would like to understand the reason for this! I hope this doesn’t affect the business at the SmartCentres, because if people can save more money by going out of town for gas, you can bet they’ll be doing their shopping elsewhere, too!

Haney garage opens

The curator at R. J. Haney Heritage Village did something a little out of character on Sunday. Deborah Chapman put on a pair of coveralls and rolled up her sleeves. It was hot and muggy. There was grease under her nails, and she was grinning. Chapman, the Museum’s Board of Directors, and members of the Shuswap Chapter of the Vintage Car Club of Canada were celebrating the official opening of the Lester and Thomson Garage Exhibit during the Classic and Antique Car Show. The new display is housed in a building constructed by members of the Car Club. It is a scale replica of

Volunteering for a good cause
By Judy Vandergucht I am a long-term volunteer and I can’t say enough about the experiences I have had and what I have learned. Many people are afraid of the word ‘volunteer’ because they consider it to be a longterm commitment. This isn’t true, because you can put as much or as little time based on your schedule. I volunteer with the Falkland/Westwold First Responders as their secretary. I learned about the service and was amazed that something so important received no funding from the government. As

the historic garage that sat on the corner of Alexander Avenue and Front Street (Lakeshore). Originally built in 1918, A.W. Lester and Cyril Thomson’s garage began life as a Chevrolet dealership, selling and servicing sedans and trucks, but soon expanded to carry Overland and McLaughlin vehicles. The garage was a Salmon Arm fixture for two decades and the business survived the Great Depression. The secret was diversification. The partners had a taxi and cartage service and also sold radios. “Thanks to the Vancouver, Hamber, and Shuswap Community Foundations and the Salmon Arm Museum’s endowment fund, the Village is now home to another professionally designed exhibit,” said Chapman. “Our streetscape is really developing!” Find out more by visiting the exhibit at R.

secretary, my primary job was to find community funds to keep the service viable. Thanks to Area ‘D’ Regional Director Rene Talbot, the Columbia Shuswap Regional District gives us an annual grant and as we provide this service to the Thompson Nicola, we felt it only right that they give us some help also. In the past few months a referendum was introduced to the Westwold residents to see it they would be willing to pay taxes to provide the funds for the district to give us a grant. I am happy to report that thanks to the efforts on our behalf of Ken Gillis, Area ‘L’ Regional Director for the Thompson-Nicola Regional District, we can count on an annual grant starting next year. Fundraising is exhausting. The provincial government has been cutting back on its grants to social agencies and that leaves us having to compete for what money is available. We are very grateful to various groups that see the value in our service. Recently we needed funding to allow seven of our volunteers to upgrade their medical training and an application to the Kalamalka Rotary Club of Vernon gave us a grant for which we are very grateful. One of the biggest funding challenges is providing our volunteers with a pager service for emergency calls. We recently had to upgrade this service at a much greater cost. One of the fundraising activities we will be implementing in the near future is a raffle. We are extemely grateful to well-known local painter John Schnurrenberger for donating a painting. Thanks also to Falkland Monumental Stones Bruce Prosser for donating a BBQ. Falkland Store, courtesy of Kelly from NeeNee Wools, donated a basket of knitting products. PetroCan has donated gas vouchers, and Stubbs Custom Woodwork has donated a bathroom cabinet, along with other items. We appreciate all these donations. Tickets will be on sale at the Falkland Store where the painting will be displayed, the Library, Westwold Store and from First Responder members. The First responders meet every Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. in the Old Fire Hall in Falkland. For more information, call me at 250-379-2608.

As a family we have been slowly getting into mountain biking. That doesn’t mean we’re “mountain bikers,” but it does mean we’ve begun biking even if at a very low level. We figured it would be a fun family activity and a good way to get some exercise. Seeing as we are easing into biking, we decided to go with another family on a nearly 50 kilometre bike ride this past weekend. We figured, why start at 20 kilometres when you can start at 50?! The ride itself was along a section of the old Kettle Valley Railway over to Chute Lake and then back. There is a small resort at Chute Lake where we planned to eat and refuel before biking back to our starting point. The first part of our ride was great. The biking paths were relatively smooth, we saw lots of wildlife, and everyone had smiles from ear to ear. Around the 6 or 7 kilometre mark the rest of the route became either bumpy or sandy. Though the constant bouncing over the bumps began to do a number on our behinds, it was the sand that was becoming a greater problem; especially for my youngest. By 10 kilometres Nate began complaining and shedding some tears and by around 12 kilometres, we could see he wasn’t going to make it. Just as we were wondering what we should do, my friend found a small piece of plastic strapping lying on the side of the trail. It was just long enough to be used as a tow rope and so we connected it between my friend’s bike and my son’s. In hindsight, we should have turned around at that point. However, the older boys had already gone ahead and for some reason we thought we were closer to the resort than we thought. We also assumed that after refuelling at the resort, we’d all be energetic enough to conquer the trek home. With all of this in mind my friend offered to be the first to tow Nate. However, as I rode the last 4 or 5 kilometres to the resort I could tell we had bitten off much more than we can
chew, but we were beyond the point of return as we needed food and wouldn’t have had enough water to simply turn around and go back. After spending time resting and eating at the resort it was time to start the return trip. I am not sure if it was fatigue or simply trying to motivate ourselves, but most of us felt the trip to the resort included more uphill terrain which we thought would make the return trip easier. We couldn’t have been more wrong. Instead most of the return trip was in fact slightly uphill and of course it was my turn to do the towing. I said to my friend, “I think we’ve discovered the place our parents have always told us about; the place where it is in fact uphill both ways!” To make matters worse, two things happened. Firstly, I had hope Nate could make it at least part of the way back before we had to tow him. However, the return trip started with a steady incline of sandy terrain that was difficult for him to negotiate and after only 2 kilometres he was done. I am sure the hot dog sitting in his stomach didn’t help. Secondly, my older boys had kindly offered to take turns towing their brother should I need some help. However, determined to beat the time it took to get to the resort they quickly raced off without any consideration for their parents’ ability to tow their little brother a mere 23 kilometres through sand. So for twenty-plus kilometres, my wife and I alternated pulling a large child and his bike until it felt like we couldn’t tow anymore. When we arrived at our truck, the older boys greeted us with, “We beat you guys by over 35 minutes! What took you guys so long?” Fortunately, both of us were too delirious to respond at that point. In the end, the kids thought the whole ordeal was a walk in the park; or in Nate’s case a nice casual glide. For the parents, we felt like we looked death in the eye and barely escaped. However, as with most family adventures, we can now look back, laugh and

Running burns off a bad mood almost as quickly as it burns calories (a 150-pound person will burns 238 calories in 30 minutes of jogging). It also strengthens bones - a 2009 study suggests that running is even more of a boon to bone health than resistance training - and can ward off aging-related disabilities and premature death.

It is a dominant cycle for our pinks this year. It is estimated that there will be 3.8 million fish returning to spawn in the Thompson drainage basin. As well, it’s possible there may be another opening late August into September. If you wish to take in the fishery, keep in touch with Westside Stores for updated info. You can also go to the DFO sport fishing openings web. It’s a great opportunity to see a great natural spectacle on the Thompson River, and a chance to take the whole family on a fishin’ adventure!

as good connectivity to Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park. Typically, the very adaptable Great Horned Owls disperse as juveniles in search of company and a territory to take up permanent residence. “It’s remarkable how resilient nature is,” says Aaron Deans, Allan Brooks Nature Centre executive director. “And amazing how nature adapts beyond its fragility in order to survive. Organizations like SORCO exist to give some species a hand.” The presentation to follow at Allan Brooks Nature Centre by Russell Cannings is appropriate for all levels of birding experience. Cannings will talk about bird-finding in the Okanagan as well his record-setting Big Year for BC. He recently co-authored Birdfinding in British Columbia with his father, Dick Cannings. The talk is a part of the Summer Sunset Speakers Series presented at Allan Brooks Nature Centre Tuesday evenings, by donation (July 30 to Oct. 1, 2013). Doors open at 7:00 p.m. and presentations begin at 7:30 p.m. ABNC is located at 250 Allan Brooks Way in Vernon. For more info call 250-2604227.

In cycles of nature, it seems that various species of insects take their turn at making us aware of their presence by a sting or bite. It’s gotta be the yellowjackets’ turn! Local retail store shelves are empty of hornet spray; meanwhile the little buggers dig burrow or build nests, attacking anything coming close. The hotter the weather, the worse the bite, it seems. Old home remedies for wasp/bee stings still work, for example, vinegar rubbed onto a bite will help; as will rubbing an onion on a bite, or so they say. Be cautious in old buildings, or lifting boards. Watch for nests on hanging branches or bushes. Fishing report: Salmon season has been open on the lower Shuswap River, with little success. Chinook will be holding in deep thermals in Mara Lake until we receive cool/damp/cloudy weather. Same goes for the opening on the south Thompson River. Salmon will hold in Kamloops Lake or upriver in deep pools. Trout: little activity except on lakes like Boolean/Spa/Aurthur above Falkland, in the evening. Johnson Lake, above Adams Lake is active in morning and evening. Enjoy our great Shuswap and be safe in all you do!

Owls come home to North Okanagan
Several rehabilitated Great Horned Owls will find themselves released back into the North Okanagan. In collaboration with the South Okanagan Rehabilitation Centre for Owls (SORCO) and the Allan Brooks Nature Centre (ABNC), the young owls will be released at Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary Tuesday, August 27th at 6:00 p.m. Interested members of the public are invited to watch, respectfully, the owl release which will take place at 12408 Coldstream Creek Road, by donation to SORCO. The release will be followed by a presentation at Allan Brooks Nature Centre on Birdfinding in British Columbia. The Great Horned owlets were found orphaned in their Vernon nest residence in the spring. Concerns of Vernon area residents alerted SORCO staff who arranged for volunteer transport of the owlets to the Oliver clinic. They arrived at the centre when they were too young to eat. SORCO staff cared for the birds and facilitated the successful development of these healthy young adult owls, now ready to be released back into the Vernon area. Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary offers open forest habitat for prey and secure cover for the owls as well

The year was 2010, and in the wide expanse of landscape, the surging green waters of the mighty Thompson River blended into the arid sage brush hills above. There at our feet, tails beating at the current, pink salmon by the hundreds swam past hour upon hour, making their way to their natal streams. Those that have further to go come first. These were bright silver-grey/green; males just starting to form the species-characteristic hump on their backs. The river was open for taking these feisty bright fish from below Savona, downstream to the Goldpanner Campground west of Spences Bridge. They are classed as a 3-year salmon, coming back to spawn; while their cousins, chinook and sockeye, are 4 years in their cycle. Pinks as they are called, are the underlings or poorer ones of the salmon family. But what they lack in size (3–5 lbs), they make up in fighting ability. They are caught by troll, gill net, and seine in the Strait of Georgia on the north coast. Pinks like to mingle with their steelhead buddies while migrating, but will mix sockeye in the ocean. However, here’s the rub. Seiners must pick out these pinks in each set, if the boat is after sockeye, so they will survive. This is done of course, while the fish are pooled in the net in the water. In some instances recently, as reported in the Vancouver Sun, boats in a commercial fleet have been observed not to have done so, with up to 20,000 salmon being wantonly wasted–a flagrant abuse. This, to take only one thousand sockeye per set. Due to their bone/genetic structure, pink salmon soften quickly. If a commercial boat is taking pinks, the catch must be dressed and then immediately flash-frozen. For sport-caught salmon, they have to be placed on ice, in a cooler. On arriving home they can be filleted/steaked and packaged with a vacuum food saver, or smoked/canned. Recently, local grocery outlets have had good pricing on whole pink salmon, giving local consumers a chance to really enjoy that great flavour of our maligned little pinks. To help, here are a couple of recipes I hope you will enjoy. Grilled salmon with ginger sauce: 2 -8 ounce salmon fillet, 3 tbsp dry sherry, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbs sesame oil, 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely minced, 2 tbsp butter, 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper, lemon slices. In a shallow glass dish combine sherry, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger. Place fillets in marinade for 30 minutes. Preheat grill, and brush the grids with vegetable oil. Dot the salmon with butter (optional), and grill with med/ high heat for 10 minutes. Place salmon on platter and serve with lemon slices! Enjoy.

Agriculture strategy underway
The Shuswap Agriculture Strategy is underway as the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) has hired Sustainable Solutions Group as the consultant who will guide the development of the strategy. “The consultants are now leading the project and have met with the Shuswap Agriculture Strategy Steering Committee,” says Shuswap Economic Development Officer Robyn Cyr. “They are now collecting data, doing research on the agriculture sector around the Shuswap, and the next step will be public consultation in early September.” The goal of the Shuswap Agriculture Strategy project is to support the growth of the agriculture sector of the Shuswap region in order to create a sustainable agriculture economy, protection of agriculturally capable land, and to integrate existing economic and land use policies into future strategic plans that are approved by the CSRD Board. “There are really two driving issues here,” says CSRD Development Services Manager Gerald Christie, “economic development and land-use - the health of the agricultural community relies on

Help Outrun Cancer in Your Community, Become Part of the Organizing Committee in Salmon Arm Salmon Arm, BC - “My quest would not be a selfish one. I could not leave knowing these faces and feelings would still exist, even though I would be set free from mine.” The people who look for the possibilities in an impossible task often make the difference, and Terry Fox was one of those people. It was Terry’s determination towards his ultimate goal - to outrun cancer - that exemplifies the importance of leading by example. Terry ran 5,373 kilometers in 143 days with the goal of seeking a cure for those affected by cancer and giving those around him something to hold onto - hope. This year marks the 33rd annual Terry Fox Run and volunteers are needed to help organize and execute the Run in the Salmon Arm community. By becoming a Run volunteer, you become an integral part of the entire Run event. Volunteers are needed to join the organizing committee and also for various Run day duties for this meaningful cause, as the Run is fast approaching and is taking place on Sunday September 15. Cliff and Fran Evans have organized the Salmon Arm Run since 2004 and have enjoyed the opportunity to contribute to a worthy cause while engaging fellow community members. “Being minutes away from the communities of Sorrento, Blind and Eagle Bay, Sicamous, Grinrod and Enderby, Salmon Arm is a great location for this year’s Terry Fox Run,” says Cliff Evans. “We invite you all to come join us and contribute in any way that you can.” Every contribution matters, and like Terry, we will continue to work together to outrun cancer. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer for the Terry Fox Run in Salmon Arm, please contact Cliff and Fran Evans, Salmon Arm Run Organizers by email at evafc@shaw.ca or by phone at 250-804-0376. Remember, the Runs are non-competitive and all inclusive; the registration fee is by donation and there is no minimum pledge amount. For more information about The Terry Fox Foundation, visit www.terryfox.org.

DONALD EDWIN ROGERS
Donald Edwin Rogers died on August 7, 2013 at Shuswap Lake General Hospital at the age of 82. Don was born in Calgary, Alberta on April 7, 1931, youngest son of John and Ethel Rogers. Don is survived by his wife and best friend of 41 years, Irene, son Jim (Helen) of High River, daughter Barbara Clarke of Red Deer, four grandchildren Jennifer, Stephen, Edward and Jeffrey, brother Boots (Is) of Calgary, nephews Don and Dave and sisters-in-law Pat May of Salmon Arm and Joan Primrose (Dale) of Calgary.
Don attended Western Canada High School and Mount Royal College in Calgary and the Banff School of Advanced Management. He spent his early years in the oil industry. In 1976 he and Irene moved to Salmon Arm. Jobs were few and far between in those days so Don worked at a variety of things - property management for Cedar Square, real estate sales, financial planning with Equitable Life Insurance and Canada Permanent Trust, Alderman from 1980-84, Manager of the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce, Project Manager for Haney Heritage Park, and Mayor of Salmon Arm 1990-93.

While he was an Alderman in 1984, Don started the Salmon Arm Sonnet Contest sponsored by Martini and Rossi of Italy as a response to a lighthearted ad he read in Readers’ Digest which stated, “More people in Canada drink Martini Extra Dry than compose sonnets in Salmon Arm.” To kick off the 1991 Sonnet Contest, then Mayor, Don played Sir John A. MacDonald in a skit called “The Last Spike” written by Rhonda Bourdon which attracted attention to the Sonnet Contest from Adrienne Clarkson of CBC. As a Toastmaster he won the provincial humorous speech contest with “Only in Canada Eh?” and went on to place third in the Nationals in Oakland, California. As Mayor he initiated the formation of the Shuswap Community Foundation, negotiated with CPR to have train whistles stopped in Salmon Arm and Canoe, saw the inauguration of the Transit System in 1991 and implemented the first 20 year long range plan for Salmon Arm. As past president of the Salmon Arm Museum and Heritage Association, he started the development of Haney Heritage Park and had the Mt. Ida Church and North Broadview School moved on site and as Project Manager saw the first walking trails created and oversaw the construction of the new museum building and several outbuildings. As past Chairman of the Okanagan College Advisory Board, Don led a delegation that successfully lobbied the Kelowna College Board and the Minister of Education to keep the Salmon Arm campus open. After retiring as Mayor, Don volunteered as Project Manager for the new Branch #109 Seniors Centre of which he was a lifetime member. In the past, Don was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #62, Rotary, Toastmasters, Chairman of the Fall Fair parade, ESS Director of the Provincial Emergency Program, President of the Salmon Arm Museum and Heritage Association, Chairman of the Okanagan College Advisory Board, Board member of the CSRD, and member of the Salmon Arm Golf Course. Don suffered from rheumatoid arthritis most of his adult life. He loved playing and watching all sports, especially golf. As the arthritis gradually robbed him of his ability to play sports, he turned to bridge and especially enjoyed duplicate bridge. He started a Men’s Bridge Club and taught bridge at Seniors Branch #109 to encourage more men to play. Don was an honest man with a great sense of humour, loved telling jokes, singing, playing the guitar and keyboard, painting watercolours, bird watching, golf and bridge. His nephews, grandchildren and many others will remember Don’s perfect imitation of Donald Duck as well as his sleight of hand shaking dimes out of their ears. Special thanks to Dr. Weicker and Dr. Black for their care and concern in his last hours and to Dr. Weicker for taking such good care of him in the past. Also thank you to each and every staff member from all departments working on 2nd Floor this past five weeks who helped Don and I through this journey with their kind words and compassionate care. And thank you to my sister Pat who is always there for me. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Shuswap Hospital Foundation in Don’s name or raise a glass to Don at your next Happy Hour - his favourite time of the day!! He was loved and will be missed. Online condolences can be sent through Don’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Funeral arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Service, Salmon Arm, BC

Carl Ernest Luckow March 29, 1928 - August 3, 2013 Carl Ernest Luckow passed away peacefully at Bastion Place on August 3, 2013 after a courageous four year battle with cancer. He was born in Hettinger, North Dakota on March 29, 1928 to Ernest and Myrtle Luckow. The family moved to Swan River, Montana when he was 4. He attended school at Swan River and Ferndale and graduated from Bigfork High School in 1946. Carl married Della Fenby on October 29, 1949. In 1952, he was drafted into the military and spent 18 months in Germany as a field wireman. After he was discharged from the military in 1954, he returned to Montana. Carl and Della moved to their cabin on Swan River where they ranched. He was a sawyer in a mill and eventually went into logging. Carl often said one of the best times in their lives was when they adopted two girls from Browning, Montana: Rita (1958) and Marla (1961). Soon after, the family moved to Tappen, BC in 1964 and later settled in White Lake. Carl formed his own logging company and worked as a contractor with Holdings Lumber Co. for many years. He also owned a woodlot and worked until health issues forced him to retire. He enjoyed spending time in the garden, loved flowers, fishing and jigsaw puzzles. Some of Carl’s happiest moments were during family get-togethers. He especially loved children. He was predeceased by his parents and brother. Carl is survived by Della, his wife of 63 years; daughters Rita (Bryon) Every and Marla (Warren) Drader, both of White Lake; grandchildren, Owen (Andria) Every, Randy Every (Crystal Millwater), Andrea Drader (Garth Turner) and Janine Drader. He is also survived by eight great grandchildren and numerous relatives in the USA. A celebration of Carl’s life will be held on August 17, 2013 at the White Lake Hall at 1:00 pm. Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium Online condolences can be sent to Carl’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

DesignDilemmas by Linda Erlam Paying it forward
shared that information and she realized that what she could buy at the big box store was within her budget and would exactly meet her needs. She was very, very appreciative and I felt good. I went to Alberta last weekend and the muffler in my car blew. Two dealers had a look and said it was shot and I’d need a new one, but I couldn’t get it done because of the long weekend and no stock availability. Back in Salmon Arm, I called around and was quoted about $400.00 for the new one – just the parts. Then I called the only guy in the book who has “Muffler” in his business name. Two minutes up on the hoist he tells me,”No, you don’t need a whole new unit, you just need a new section of pipe.” And boy did he save me a whack of money. We talked about giving away information, and doing what is right for the customer. His business was very busy that day, and every one of his employees was smiling. Says a lot about the boss, and his integrity, and his ethics. And I’ll be singing his praises to anyone who’ll listen. Paying it forward.

SUMMER CLEARANCE EVENT

I am a member of a 5000-strong group of people who do what I do. A few of us had quite an online chat the other day about ethics and good business practices, and the necessity of turning away customers on occasion. From that grew the discussion about sending potential customers to another dealer or retailer, and the value of giving away information without any expectation of monetary returns. The majority of those who engaged in the conversation said it was OK to give away information IF there was the possibility of a job down the line. A few of us stood our ground and said, “No, give away your knowledge whenever you can; the good will come back to you.” Back in “the day” we called it Karma. A few weeks ago I had a call from a gal who had recently moved into a south-facing apartment. The plastic mini-blinds supplied by the landlord were not providing nearly enough coverage for her. We chatted and narrowed down her needs, and it became clear that this job had an almost non-existent budget. I know a bit about what the big box stores carry–I’ve done some research. So I
