Arts and crafts are something of a family tradition and past-time so 18-year-old Rachel Denhollander comes by her talent inevitably. “My sisters do scrap-booking and one of my sisters does card-making; she has some amazing ideas. My dad’s mom makes hundreds of cards every year just for relatives and my mom knits, sews and crochets; so does my grandma.” This talent isn’t confined to the females,

her brothers do woodworking and a couple of them have done some impressive bigger projects. “One of my brothers built that barn,” she says, pointing down the yard. “Another brother built that retaining wall and rock pond,” she says with obvious pride. Coming from a family of 13 siblings, Rachel grew up surrounded by a lot of talent. Her parents, David and Marion, home-schooled their family so the children spent a lot of time with each other. Rachel says she loves the freedom that comes with home-schooling; it gave her time to be creative and to go outside when she felt like it. The Denhollanders moved to Tappen from Calgary over a decade ago, and the children grew up with a big yard to enjoy. They have two big gardens and a few goats, so there is always plenty
The
to do, as well as fresh fruit, vegetables, and cheese to enjoy. Rachel likes needlepoint, sewing, and crocheting but a present she received years ago took her artistic talent in another direction. “I started beading necklaces and jewelry when I was eight or nine. I got a huge plastic bead set and I was thrilled. I made daisy-chain bracelets with seed beads – they’re really tiny. When I was 13, I started working with wire. I made rings, pendants, and earrings.” She learned some techniques from watching demonstrations on YouTube or by reading blogs, but for the most part she found her own way of doing things. Then she decided she wanted to make everything from scratch. “I started working with Fimo clay. I wanted to make my own beads so I could do everything by hand,
friends&neighbours by Leah Blain but I didn’t like making beads.” She did enjoy using the clay and soon other things started emerging; “I made figurines and from there I started doing lots of stuff.” She made keychains and she decided to try to sell them: “I went to Hidden Gems (bookstore) and they had other keychains. Beth said, ‘We can’t take those but if you had something book-related that would be way better.’ I went back the next day and she said, ‘Good job.’” She had brought back minuscule book necklaces and keychains: The Hobbit, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Divergent, and The Book Thief. “They’re not hard to make,” she says modestly, “but it requires care and precision.

Then I have to bake it, put it on a chain, and glaze it.” Rachel is graduating this year and she’s not really sure what she wants to do in the future. She would like to have a job using her creativity, but she realizes that isn’t always a reality. But she does have a dream; instead of making tiny books out of clay for keychains, she’d like to write a real one. “I would love to write and publish a book – maybe historical fantasy.” *** Rachel can make custom keychain or necklace books; put in a request at Hidden Gems Bookstore or contact her at stripedpinwheel@gmail.com. For custom-made figurines, you can contact Rachel by email.

Watershed survey results released
The Shuswap Watershed Council–a collaborative organization focussed on monitoring and managing water quality in the Shuswap–has recently released the results of an online survey they conducted on the proposed Shuswap Watershed Water Quality Program. Through the months of February and March, the public was invited to read the program outline and complete a survey online at www. shuswapwater.com. The survey is part of the program’s public engagement. “I think the results of this survey show that there is a high level of public support for the proposed programs for 2014 for the Shuswap Watershed Council,” says Paul Demenok, Chair for the Shuswap Watershed Council. “I’m encouraged by these results as they provide a clear indication that we are headed in the right direction by focussing our efforst on water quality within the entire Shuswap watershed.” “The survey received 226 responses. 76% of survey respondents indicated that they believe that water quality and safe recreation are important and they merit having a program that focuses on them. Additionally, the majority of respon-
dents indicated their support for the objectives that are identified in the program outline. Three out of four objectives received strong public support, up to 80%; the fourth objective received divided support,” says Erin Vieira, program manager. “The majority of the responses came from full-time Shuswap residents; some responses were from part-time Shuswap residents or people from the Okanagan or Alberta.” The online survey was the first round of public engagement for the proposed program. A second round of engagement will take place in July when the Shuswap Watershed Council hosts a series of community meetings around the Shuswap. The purpose of those meetings will be to present more details of the proposed water quality program and receive further feedback. A meeting schedule will be advertised in June. A detailed report, “Summary of Results: Public Engagement Phase I” is available online at www.shuswapwater.com. Survey respondents were invited to enter a draw to win a $150 gift certificate to a Shuswap-based business of their choice. The lucky winner of the draw was Tom Wrinch of Eagle Bay.
Golf course vandalism update
The Salmon Arm Golf Club was the target of vandals at the end of April 2014. The culprits marked a number of the club’s greens with some sort of aggressive pesticide spray like Roundup. While the markings are unsightly, they fortunately do not affect the playability of the putting surfaces. The evidence of this senseless attack will diminish over the next several weeks. It is believed, in the days preceding the opening of the Champions Course on April 30, 2014, that the culprits made their way onto the golf course. Based on evidence gathered at the scene, the vandalism took place sometime between 7:00 p.m. the evening of Monday, April 28th and 8:00 a.m. Tuesday, April 29th. This was not a random incident and it appears the vandals may have known the golf course layout extremely well in order to get around undetected. The vandals accessed the golf course through a vacant lot off
40th Ave and 54th St. SE in the industrial Park. The lot is adjacent to Adam Integrated and below the 18th tee area of the golf course. Vehicle tire tracks and foot print samples were gathered from the scene. The Board of Directors and the membership of the Salmon Arm Golf Club are making a public appeal for any information that will lead to the apprehension of the vandals. A reward of $5,000 has been raised by the membership for any information that leads to the resolution of this matter. The Salmon Arm Golf Club is a prized community asset, an integral draw for tourism to the area as well as a much used facility by the Salmon Arm community. An event such as this affects the entire community, not just golfers. Please contact the local RCMP detachment at 250-832-6044 or Doug Herron of the Salmon Arm Golf Club at 250-832-3667(x203).
Slide debris poses boating hazard
The massive debris slide that brought huge trees and debris down Cooke Creek the morning of May 2 has made its way through the Shuswap River water course and has deposited debris into Mara Lake. The deposit of tree limbs and slide debris into Mara Lake poses a potential hazard for boaters and lake users. The Shuswap Emergency Program would like to stress to all lake users and boaters to be aware of the increase of debris hazards. Logs that are floating in the water have a low profile and are very hard to see with a slight bit of chop. Boaters are urged to slow down and be aware of their surroundings especially during
inclement weather. SEP also reports in another water related issue that the Salmon Arm RCMP continue to action enforcement of the evacuation zone related to the McIntyre Creek debris flow which abuts Shuswap Lake. The RCMP has placed a log boom in the waters at a distance of 50 feet from the evacuation area to ensure the safety of the public by restricting access to a dangerous area. Boaters are advised to keep clear of this area and if travelling at night watch for the flashing warning lights indicating the location of the log boom. For more information regarding flooding and emergency preparedness, please visit www.csrd.bc.ca.

Seasonal allergies
The most common allergens in North America are ragweed, grass and pollen. April, May and June are known as peak allergy months. In April and May symptoms are usually due to grass and on hot, dry, windy days the symptoms are worse. This weather is ideal for spreading pollen. It’s best to get away from the offending allergen; however, it is often not possible to do so. Antihistamines are the most common over-the-counter medication used for allergies. Seniors should be careful in selecting antihistamines. It is important to know more the differences between the various kinds of antihistamines and to talk to your pharmacist or physician. According to Ayurvedic medicine, it is not enough to deal with symptoms of the allergy alone, but to try to deal with root cause and build up the body’s immune system to deal with allergens. A diet that includes regular intake of spices with anti-allergy capabilities can reduce vulnerability to plant-induced allergies. These spices contain aller-

gy-fighting chemicals that include flavonoids and phenols. For example, turmeric is rich in curcumin, a compound that is known to have anti-inflammatory properties. Turmeric can also help improve digestion and balance the flow of bile. Cilantro, coriander, hot pepper, sage, oregano and coriander are other spices that are known to be allergy fighters. These spices can be used to season vegetables, soups or curries. Sautéing spices is preferable and is a way of incorporating some of these allergy fighting spices into your diet. Nutritional supplements like Vitamin C with bioflavonoid has an anti-inflammatory and an antiallergenic effect. Essential fatty acids like those found in black current, borage, evening primrose and flaxseed oil may also help. Sniffing a drop or two of essential oil like chamomile, tea tree oil and eucalyptus helps in the hay fever season. However, it is important to vary the oil used, as long-term use makes them less effective. Acupuncture by a certified

by Dr. Warren Gage
Glucosamine for osteoarthritis
When I have new patients come into my office for a chiropractic examination, I usually take a series of digital x-rays of their spine in order to assess alignment and to determine if there is any degenerative disc disease and/or osteoarthritis. Spinal x-rays are important before starting chiropractic care because unfortunately it is common to find varying amounts of arthritis in the discs and joints of the spine as well as significant alignment issues. On new patients’ second visits, I sit down with them, show them their x-rays, and provide to them a written report of findings. I explain the importance of chiropractic adjustments in order to restore proper alignment and mobility in the spine; and reduce the stresses that are accelerating the degeneration/loss of health. In addition to the physical aspect of spinal function I also address the various lifestyle habits such as nutritional choices that can either accelerate, or slow the degeneration in their spine. When it comes to supplements I always recommend patients take a high quality glucosamine sulfate. Glucosamine sulfate (not other forms of glucosamine) is extremely important because it is the only substance shown to halt the osteoarthritic process. In fact, in a 2012 study published in the journal,
Therapeutic Advances in Musculoskeletal Disease, the authors concluded that every patient with osteoarthritis should take glucosamine sulfate. This helps stop the progression of disease and reduces the symptoms, while at the same time improves quality of life and reduces the future need for knee or hip replacement surgery provided that supplementation is started early enough. The researchers also stated that there are no drugs or injections of any kind that have been proven to provide these benefits. In order to help prevent osteoarthritis, anyone over the age of 40 should take 500-1000 mg of glucosamine sulfate daily. If a person has been diagnosed with osteoarthritis, they require 1500 mg. The supplement that I take daily and recommend to my patients is AR-Encap from Thorne Research; it is a top-quality product with additional beneficial ingredients. Arthritis does not have to be a part of “getting old.” If you need help improving your spine and joint function and health, or require additional supplementation to your diet we can help. We carry a line of Thorne Research, Mercola and Genstra brands in the office. Call Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 8030224.

Addressing flooding in the Shuswap Every spring, the freshet is a concern for residents in communities throughout the Shuswap. Having lived here for most of my life, I understand the danger and threat that flooding brings to communities in our region. The stress, heartache and grief that families go through to see their homes and their possessions destroyed by natural disasters is unimaginable. Recently, on May 3 when the landslide hit the Shuswap River near Enderby, I drove out to meet with officials and first responders to survey the damage and find out what actions were taken by local authorities. I commend the men and women who worked so hard to ensure all impacted residents were safe, and clear the slide debris so roads could be reopened. Our government continues to provide support, co-ordination and guidance to the local authority as needed. The Province will also pay for all eligible response and recovery activities undertaken, as we recognize that all necessary decisions made in this emergency are best undertaken by local authorities. The best way to prevent damage in our communities going forward is investing in flood mitigation projects in our communities. On May 2, our government
invested $333,333 in flood mitigation funding along with an additional $666,667 of funds shared between the Government of Canada and the City of Enderby to upgrade the Regent Avenue lift station protecting 60 businesses and 250 homes in the area. I commend the City of Enderby for being proactive in applying for this funding so the community can be better prepared for higher water flows. Not only will the main commercial area and nearby neighbourhoods be protected, but jobs and economic benefits will be created in the community with these upgrades. As your MLA, I will continue to work with local government, regional districts and my colleagues to find new solutions to prevent flooding from impacting our communities.

LILACS HAVE BURST INTO BLOOM I found a row of lilacs growing on city property last year when I missed the left turn to Bill’s Bottle Depot. They are in a ditch. Help yourself. If you do not know where this is, turn off the highway at the light that takes you to Walmart one way, and to an industrial area and the lilacs in a ditch on the other. The bushes are about two blocks from the highway. OKANAGAN UKRAINIAN FESTIVAL Drive to Vernon for an afternoon of dance, music and Ukrainian spirit. On Sunday, May 25 at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre at 2 p.m. you will see Ukrainian dancing by the Sadok Ukrainian Dance Ensemble. The artistic director is Andrea Malysh. Tickets at 250-5497469 or www.ticketseller.ca. www.sadok.net BAPTISTS MOVE AND HAVE GREAT GROWTH Mountainview Baptist Church moved from the SASCU Downtown Activity Centre not because of dwindling attendance but because the space it leased was too small. Benje Bartley, who has been the pastor for three and a half years, wrote that “the move to St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church was not because of dwindling attendance, in fact it was quite the opposite. We had outgrown the space that we were leasing and our Sunday school program was growing as well. We moved because we were growing. Our numbers at the time were averaging around 40 in worship attendance, and we currently average 73. Our Sunday school program averaged around 15, and now we average 50.” Worship service is at 9 a.m. Sundays. http://actsbc.ca/ OurChurches/MountainView.aspx RCMP WILL HAVE A POLICE DOG, HELICOPTER, BBQ, MOUNTIE IN RED SERGE WITH HORSE FOR PHOTOS, AND MANY DISPLAYS ON SUNDAY, MAY 25 ALL DAY The Salmon Arm RCMP are hosting a Police Fair on Sunday, May 25 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Shaw Centre arena as a fundraiser for the family of one of its own, Cpl. Jamie Leverrier whose four-year old daughter Megan needs a liver transplant. Admission by donation. This will showcase many aspects of the RCMP including the police dog, helicopter, boat, radar gun, fingerprinting, a BBQ, photo opportunity with horse in RCMP tack, collision rollover simulator, drug info, Emergency Response Team and much more. There will be various demonstrations throughout the day. There will also be a silent auction during the day and a live auction starting at 3 p.m. Megan Leverrier was diagnosed with a very large tumour on her liver. She has undergone several blood transfusions, surgeries, a collapsed lung, and has had damage to her kidney. After spending a few weeks in Vancouver Children’s Hospital, she is now at Toronto Children’s Hospital on a wait list for a liver transplant. Her parents and little brother are staying at the Ronald McDonald House and the doctors have told them they may be there for a long time. Staff at the Salmon Arm detachment are fundraising to help them with the expenses of living away from home for an extended period of time.
SUPERVISOR IN SASK. HOSPITAL LIKES WHITE A nurse who, like me, is also from Watson, Sask., is near retirement age as a supervisor in a 150-bed hospital. I sent him the item from last week’s column about the Saskatchewan Union of Nurses initiating a wear-white campaign and asked if he favours going back to white. This was his reply: “In my role as nursing supervisor, I wear teal-coloured scrubs covered by a white lab coat and have been told by numerous colleagues that I look professional. Some of the women I work with wear traditional white dresses or white pantsuits, white stockings/socks and white duty shoes (not runners). I think they look like nurses, just like my grandmother who graduated as a registered nurse in 1919. “When I see nurses on the ward wearing all sorts of multicoloured, ill-fitting and downright sloppy clothing with pant hems dragging on the floor while showing off their buttock-cracks, their any-colour runners with laces that may or may not be securely tied and their hair dyed a variety of colours, I cannot help but think they may be less professional than their co-workers, which may not be a fair assessment of the care they give. However, that is my opinion. I am definitely old-school in regard to nursing dress codes and I also appreciate seeing our physicians on the days when the men are sporting ties and dress jackets and the women looking like they are ready for business rather than getting set for their morning jog. “The general public is at a loss when trying to decipher who walked into the patient room as to whether it is environmental services, the maintenance man or maybe it’s the nurse they rang for ten minutes ago! “Gotta go now, it’s time to get dressed for work!” LISTERINE KILLS MOSQUITOES QUICKLY Here’s a tip sent by a reader who receives the Sidewalk Superintendent by email every week. Fill a spray bottle with Listerine and spray it where you do not want mosquitoes, such as at a picnic table, around your lawn chair, and around standing water, but not on wood. They die on contact. It will last three days. NEW MARKET WEST OF SALMON ARM Wenndee Quinn (Gourmet Jams) and Heather Middlestead (Heathglen Farms) are opening a Farmers’ Market on Thursday, June 5 at Sandy Point. The site will be visible from the highway and is within a kilometre of four campgrounds: Sandy Point, Pierre’s Point, Glen Echo and View Point RV & Cottages. Access will be from the highway onto the frontage road between Sandy Point and Pierre’s Point, beside Woody’s Woodworking Shop. They will have vendors that are local farmers and crafters, and will include food and art produced by native band members. The market will be open Thursday mornings from 8 a.m. until noon. To discuss becoming a vendor at the new market, contact Heather at 250-832-2216 or kolli@telus.net or Wenndee at 250-675-6886 or wenndee@telus.net. BELL MOBILITY HAS LOW-COST PLAN After I wrote about Telus’s low-cost cell phone plans, a Sorrento person called to say Bell Mobility has an excellent plan. Go to www.bell.ca/Mobility/Cell_phone_ plans. Bell has a trade-in plan. Bring your current phone or tablet to a participating Bell store, and get up to $250 towards a new one.
ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT SUSHI, AND ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT CHINESE BUFFET When Kevin Yang moved from Toronto to Salmon Arm and took over the Chinese restaurant in the old Dairy Queen building, he brought some of Toronto with him. After extensive renovations, Royal Wok opened on May 24, 2013. Now he has added all-you-can-eat Japanese sushi and a take-out menu. Besides the Chinese buffet, the restaurant has three menus: one Chinese with more than 150 items and two Japanese, all-you-can-eat and take out. Chinese food take-out is popular. Call 778-489-1688. Royal Wok Sushi is different from other Chinese restaurants in Salmon Arm, and there isn’t another combination with sushi in the entire Okanagan-Shuswap. There isn’t another that has all-you-can-eat sushi built into the price. Word-of-mouth advertising has brought many new customers. I watched as they raved about the food as they left. Hours are 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., open to 10 on weekends. FIELDSTONE ORGANICS EXPANDS PRODUCTION Fieldstone Granary is British Columbia’s only certified organic grain handling facility. Paul Kelly has been welcomed by Fieldstone outside Armstrong as production coordinator. The firm’s newsletter states: “As the demand for local food increases, we are pleased to be able to share that we have increased our local planned production acres by almost 33 per cent.” Paul works closely with existing farmers and new growers in the Okanagan/ Thompson/Shuswap region, who will be growing certified organic crops for Fieldstone. Spelt is proving to be one of the most popular grains, just one of the many ancient and heritage wheats that produces excellent flour for baking. Fieldstone’s products are available in Salmon Arm at DeMille’s, Askew’s, Nutters, Save-On Foods and Shuswap Health Foods. To sign up for the quarterly newsletter, go to www.fieldstoneorganics.ca NEW LICENSE PLATE FORMAT COMING IN JUNE ICBC is running out of B.C. license plates with the current format, so a new format will start in June for new number plates issued to passenger vehicles. The license plates will have an AA0 00A format (letter, letter, number; number, number, letter). ICBC says red light cameras are already prepared for the new plates. The original AAA 000 format was introduced in 1970, and the switch to 000 AAA was made in 2001. The new format is expected to last eight to ten years. NO MORE FLAME RETARDANT IN POP Coca-Cola and PepsiCo will be removing a controversial ingredient from all their drinks, including Mountain Dew, Fanta and Powerade. A Mississippi teenager started a petition on www.change.org for the removal of brominated vegetable oil from Powerade and Gatorage. It has been patented as a flame retardant and isn’t approved for use in Japan and the European Union.

Shoe Swap event a roaring success

Forty-six women stormed the doors as they opened at 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning for the third annual She Shoe Swaps, a one-day blitz of donated new and gently-used shoes, boots and bags, held in memory of the late Rosemarie Vennard. This year’s sale raised an impressive $4272, and this year there was a purse raffle that featured a Prada Bag won by Karla Dodds and 5 Coach purses won by Lynda Stepura, Lauren Koch, Cheryl Young, Kari Wilkinson and Fiona Harris. The donation of good quality and desirable items coming from as far away as Edmonton helped make the sale phenomenal. Irene Ramsay, a satisfied shopper at the first and second sales of She Shoe Swaps, passed away last year; but in a touching gesture, she had asked her daughters to make sure her dancing shoes made it back to the sale for this year. She Shoe Swaps is truly charity at home, with 100% of proceeds divided between two local charities: 50% goes to the S.A.F.E. Society (Women’s Shelter) and 50% to the Shuswap Community Foundation - Rosemarie’s Fund, established to do good things in the Shuswap, as Rosemarie loved the community. Visit www.sheshoeswaps.com for more information, and stay tuned for next year’s event!
What I like & dislike about Baja California III
Okay, okay, I’ll write one more article what I like and dislike about Baja California. Remember, this series is aimed at snowbirds and younger folks who want to buy prime winter vacation property while it’s still inexpensive. If you’re bored by the topic, just flip the page to Sidewalk Stupor Intended. One of the Baja features I like best is the cash economy. You’ll be paying for everything with Mexican currency in 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500-peso denominations. A peso is worth about nine cents, so these are roughly equivalent to 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50-dollar bills. Canadian dollars can be changed into pesos at the airport in Los Cabos, or you can use your plastic to withdraw pesos from a Mexican ATM. If you have a Mexican bank account as I have, you can transfer money to it from a Vancouver currency exchange like FIRMA and get a better rate. Since almost everyone pays cash for everything, the Mexican government has difficulty collecting taxes. Mexico has an income tax system and a sales tax similar to ours, but folks in the Baja easily avoid paying these taxes by dealing in cash. Mexican governments don’t have a lot of money to spend. As a result, there hasn’t been a Canada-style explosion of government bureaucracy and government rules and regulations. In terms of government “services,” the Baja resembles Canada circa 1959. This leaves people with opportunities to start businesses or build things without a lot

of interference. Here’s one small example: Last year I decided to install a septic tank on my property overlooking the ocean. Now, imagine for a moment what you’d go through to put in a septic tank overlooking Shuswap Lake: six months of applications, environmental assessments, reviews, permits, and inspections, not to mention $25,000 in costs. Here’s how I did it in the Baja: I stopped a backhoe operator and got him to excavate a hole for $50 cash. I had the local building supply store deliver the sand, gravel, cement, and blocks for $400 cash. I hired three Mexican masons on Monday to build it for $250 each and promised each of them a bonus of $100 if they finished it by Friday. The tank was done Friday, and the cost was just $1,500. You can build a house pretty much the same way. The Mexican government’s lack of income means a lack of services. Only the main roads in the Baja are paved. I have to drive three kilometres down a gravel road to get to my house. In Salmon Arm I drive on pavement right to garage door. Which would you prefer: Pay $4,000 a year in property taxes and get pavement to your door, or pay $60 a year and drive on some gravel? It’s not that there aren’t rules and regulations in the Baja. There are. Mexican governments have passed just as many rules and regulations as Canadian governments. It’s that the Mexican govern-

ment doesn’t yet have the legions of bureaucrats to enforce them. That will change, of course. Which brings me to the one feature of Mexican government that you’ve probably heard about: corruption. What we define as corruption exists in the Baja, and it can be annoying when the police stop you for an alleged infraction and demand you pay a hundred dollar fine on the spot. But bribery has a positive side. Government employees are underpaid, so if you need a permit or a license, you can often accelerate the process by paying a modest ”propina” or tip. In Canada it would be called a bribe and you or the recipient risk prosecution for offering it, but in Mexico and many other countries, these tips are a covert but accepted business practice. They get things done. Think of the bureaucratic torture that Walmart went through to get permission to build an uninspiring box store in Salmon Arm. If members of local government accepted propinas, you would have been shopping in the Salmon Arm Walmart ten years ago. Okay, okay, that’s enough malarkey for now. Next week it’s back to Daron.

Don’t have soft drinks or energy drinks while you’re exercising. Stay properly hydrated by drinking enough water during your workout (just don’t overdo things, as drinking too much water can also be dangerous). While you might need energy drinks for long-distance running, in shorter exercise sessions in the gym, your body will burn the glucose from the soft drink first, before starting to burn body fat. Same goes for eating sweets.

Inclusive workshop to help bridge divides
Contributed by the Shuswap Moving Forward Together Steering Committee The Shuswap Moving Forward Together Steering Committee is a group of aboriginal and non-aboriginal Shuswap residents bringing communities together through a series of workshops for the purpose of developing regional planning processes that ensure we are including all Shuswap residents and not encouraging isolated planning that would create “have” and “have not” Shuswap communities. With the intention of developing a “stronger together” kind of thinking for the Shuswap, we would like to
invite you to attend a very important event on May 21st and 22nd that will bring Shuswap residents, sector representatives and governments together to develop processes to allow collaboration in planning to enhance the quality of life for all Shuswap residents. Whether it is social programs, employment and economic development, food security and agriculture, transportation, education opportunities, or health and wellness services, there are clear benefits to planning collectively and collaboratively and your input and support are needed to further this effort. There has been strong involvement in this work by
residents and all sectors and governments for the past four years and we are beginning to see real results! Please join us to strengthen this worthwhile effort. Everyone is welcome. The workshop takes place Wednesday, May 21 and Thursday, May 22, 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Adams Lake Conference Centre, Adams Lake Reserve, in Chase. Questions can be directed to Janet McClean Senft (evcrc@ telus.net), Craig Duckchief (Cduckchief@alib.ca), Dorothy Argent (dorothy@alokaconsulting.org) or Bonnie Thomas (bonniethomas001@gmail. com). Registration is requested.
Letters to the Editor Are Telus cell towers legal?
On June 10, 2013, I emailed The City of Salmon Arm asking if policies were in place regarding the installation of cell towers. It is clear that this concession by the telecommunications carriers is meaningless unless our municipalities have put regulations or bylaws in place. I am hopeful that we do, as Telus is exploring the siting of a cell tower on (formerly) Federated Coop land and I have concerns on a number of fronts. We still have no policy, but Salmon Arm Council is asking City staff for such a policy. Since that time, Salmon Arm has approved two cell towers in Canoe. I have notified Industry Canada, Salmon Arm, Canoe Forest Products, and Telus/Standard Lands of at least three deficiencies in the application process made by Telus. To date, I have received no replies to my questions about these deficiencies except from Industry Canada in Kelowna, who answered none of my questions, but did reply.
The Council of Salmon Arm has stated back in July 2013 that they had no concerns about the towers. It is a fact that Telus did not follow all the rules laid out by Industry Canada’s CPC-2-003. They did not approach any other tower owners to have the antenna added to the tower. They did not notify all residences within three times the height of the tower. They did not ensure compliance with the general requirements including the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA). They put up two towers instead of putting all antennas on the same tower. I question the legality of the two cell towers; and according to Industry Canada, Telus has to apply for those two cell towers again. If I broke any laws, I would be arrested and thrown in jail. Why doesn’t this apply to Telus? Mike Testart, Canoe

William Pringle
William Pringle pictured with his daughter Donna Sookraj
In 2011 William Pringle lost his 88 year old soul mate Sybil to stomach cancer at Shuswap Lake General Hospital. Together they had a wonderful life, raising two great kids who provided them with great grandchildren. William’s wife Sy was an avid golfer and won many awards. During their life together they experienced living in places such as Turkey and Pakistan and visiting a number of other countries including most of Europe, the Far East, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America and the Galapagos. William and Sybil Pringle took many trips to the United States and Mexico as they enjoyed their time together. William says “as I look back over our life together, I know I was fortunate to have such a loving wife who I miss very much at this time of my life”. William wrote a book about his life with his soul mate Sy and entitled it “Enviable Life”. William Pringle’s total donation to date of $5,000 was made in memory of his much loved wife and soul mate Sybil Pringle. The Shuswap Hospital Foundation is extremely appreciative of William Pringle’s assistance to fund much-needed equipment for the Shuswap Lake General Hospital and we congratulate him on becoming a Partner of the Shuswap Hospital Foundation.

scoring started early as Jordan King shot a bullet past the Kamloops keeper in the first few minutes of play. Ten minutes later, Braidy Parkes powered her way through the Kamloops defense and slotted the ball into the back of the net. After the half, Phoebe Barnes took a beautiful corner kick that found King in front of the net who was able to finish it off, making it 3-0. Laura Hall finished off the scoring for Shuswap with her first two goals of the season. The first was off a free kick from Barnes who passed to Hall who drilled the ball in the back of the
net with a beautiful one-time shot. With minutes left in the contest, Hall was able to capitalize again. Julia Hart and Braidy Parkes were stellar in goal all day and recorded their fifth shutout of the
season. The Sharp Shooters’ next play is on Sunday, May 24th in Salmon Arm. Above: Shuswap’s Laura Hall tackles the ball from a Penticton player. Ted Bocking photo.
Horseshoe Club hosts spring tourney
By Faith Juell The spring tournament of the Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club was held on Saturday, May 10 with 30 competitors taking part. President Doug Winslow opened the tournament at 9:00 a.m. and welcomed everyone in the light rain, which soon turned into sunshine. The pitchers competed in six different mix classes, and we welcomed members from as far away as Abbotsford and throughout the Okanagan valley from Penticton, Winfield, Vernon, Summerland, as well as Kamloops and 10 members from the Salmon Arm club. Local members in the winning classes include Matt Honkanen in class A, Clarence Juell and Edwin Krieg in class C, while class E had Ted Peters, Jack Johnson and Ted
Honkala all place. Our newest member Tom Ingebrightson played his first tournament, placing second in the mix 40 foot class. Participants enjoyed a hot chili & bun lunch, lots of visiting, and the sales table with a 50-50 draw; the main winner was Donna from Kamloops taking the 50-50 pot. We enjoy seeing the older pitchers continue to compete, with at least two past age 90, and a number of members past 80. Now that the evenings are warmer, practice times begin at 6:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays at the clubhouse next to the arenas, off 28th Ave NE. For information call Doug at 250-832-8520 or Faith at 250-832-9873.
The Salmon Arm SilverBacks Hockey Club would like to welcome Salmon Arm resident and local businesswoman, Melanie Hart, to the team as Communications & Promotions Director. Effective immediately, Hart will join forces with Phil Stewart, Director of Community Relations, Corporate Sales & Game Day Operations to work collaboratively with Troy Mick, SilverBacks GM & Head Coach as they continue to bring new and exciting changes, fresh ideas and energy to this organization. SilverBacks General Manager & Head Coach Troy Mick said, “We welcome Melanie’s creativity, professionalism and passion for this team, community and the game. I have met with Melanie on several occasions and have respected her ideas, perspectives and experience that she brings to the table. This will only make us stronger as we move forward, specifically from a digital marketing perspective, in building into our community and fan
base, and as we gear up for the 2014/2015 season.” Hart will work with the team as a whole but will primarily be responsible for team communications, social media, corporate sales and oversee game day promotions for the team. Hart’s written and media communications expertise were honed during her years on Parliament Hill working for various Members of Parliament, and continued to develop as an independent business consultant with contracts including government and public relations, sales and marketing. Some may know her as a singer/songwriter/recording artist who self-produced two albums of her original music, recorded abroad and has toured as an artist and guest speaker in many places across Canada and the US. Says Hart, “I’m really excited about this opportunity – not only to lend my talents but also to learn and grow personally and professionally in this role.”

early in the match but Shuswap responded immediately with Phoebe Barnes throwing the ball in to Jordan King who flicked the ball in front of the goal to Lys Milne, who scored off a brilliant one-time shot. Five minutes later, after some fantastic passing in the midfield by Shuswap, Jordan King was able to find the back of the net with a beautiful shot far post. This proved to be the game winner. Penticton’s pressure was incessant in the second half, as they tried desperately to equalize but Shuswap’s defense was impressive all day and was able to hold off the attack. Shuswap recorded the 2-1 victory. In the second match of the day, The Sharp Shooters blasted Kamloops 5 – 0. The

Carlin Country Market offers variety, fun
By Carmen Massey Carlin School is hosting its Fourth Annual Carlin Country Market, on Saturday, May 24th, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The Carlin Country Market is Carlin School’s primary fundraising activity for the year, and embraces the entire school population, families and the community. The Carlin Country Market is fun for everyone, and people attend from across the Shuswap. The Carlin schoolyard is turned into an outdoor festival, with food, entertainment, market shopping, Kids’ Carnival, and so much more. The Carlin Country Market raises funds to support numerous activities at Carlin school. This year the funds went toward field trip busing, school yard upgrades, elementary swim program, middle school explorations programs, purchasing new technology, purchasing new books for young readers, supporting the One to One reading program, and several other worthy projects. We are excited to reveal the newly installed Carlin Amphitheatre during this year’s Market, one of the projects made possible by previous year’s Carlin Market fundraising. Admission to the CCM is by donation, and we also encourage people to bring their bottles and cans to drop off at the gate on the way in. The Grade 4/5 class will be sorting and counting the recyclables to support their year-end trip. Some of the features of the Carlin Country Market include a “pay what you can” garage sale, a Tim Horton’s coffee and donut stand, Tappen Co-op ice cream, where we will have an ice cream eating contest this year! A live entertainment stage featuring local acts, a demonstration stage highlighting everything from dancing to karate, gymnastics to acting. Visitors can enjoy items from the concession stand, purchase goods at the open air market, and secure a coveted raffle ticket for the class theme baskets. The
Kid’s Carnival features face painting by the Carlin Leadership students, a shave ice stand, kid’s games, bouncy houses, and sports. Back by popular demand is the Carlin Dunk Tank. The Candy Stand, on-site cash machine, emergency vehicle demonstrations, Jaws of Life, and a show and shine are all back as well. For those with a green thumb, the ever-popular plant sale will fill your planters and gardens. The silent auction again features local businesses, and will include a Waterway Houseboat vacation for the fourth year in a row. New this year is a “$10,000 Hole In One” contest being hosted at Shuswap Lake Estates, the same day as the Carlin Market. People are invited to come out to the Shuswap Lake Estates driving range, en route to the Carlin Market, to try their hand at a $10,000 prize! Proceeds from the Hole In One competition will be donated to the school. The Carlin Country Market is a community effort, and we appreciate the many businesses and individuals who make it all possible. A day at the Carlin Country Market is fun for the whole family. Come at 10 a.m. and stay until 3 p.m. Don’t be daunted when you come out and see the huge amount of cars! A free shuttle is provided to get you up the hill from the parking lots. To find out more about the Carlin Country Market, contact Carmen Massey at 250-8358766 or email ctmassey@hotmail.com. To get involved as a vendor, entertainer, or demonstration troupe, contact Janine Hogan at Janine@ selectsolarsystems.com. Check out the school website (car.sd83.bc.ca) or the Carlin Country Market Facebook page for the latest updates to the Market. Carlin School is located at 4005 Myers Frontage Rd, Tappen, 14 km west of Salmon Arm on Hwy 1.

Ol’ Bud the trapper lived in a backwoods area with a large marsh nearby. Although he had trapped beaver for a number of years, prices had now dropped to about $10.00 a pelt. But this was different. He had become attached to the beaver family that lived in the marsh. There was Dad, Mom, and the 2 kits. They would venture up to his cabin each evening for their treat of carrots, apples and lettuce. The more he studied their habits and dam-building techniques, the more he realized how important the family was in the conservation of water, and a large part of the biodiversity and ecology of the area he lived in. For many readers who had read the bestselling book “Three against the Wilderness” by Eric Collier, it was about him, his wife Lillian, and son Veasy, homesteading at Meldrum Creek in the Cariboo. Far-out meadows were dry, with a trickle of water through a muddy marsh. As time went on, he applied to the Fish and Game branch for a transplant of beavers to the homestead. Soon, the inspector covering the area toured the meadows, and it wasn’t long before a game warden showed up with a pair of beavers, and the transition of the marsh began. Dams were constructed, creating large ponds that attracted waterfowl. Muskrats moved in. Their little valley home was transformed into what it once was, before the beavers had been trapped out many years before. So, the consensus could be that trapping or removal of not only beavers but
Beaver tales
other fur-bearing critters– bear, elk, moose, coyotes, for that matter–should strike a balance in nature, through trapping or hunting. When numbers are low, conservation should be the norm. The theory with hunting is to allow surplus animals to be harvested. Same goes for trapping. A good trapper knows to stop taking pine martin, if he gets too many females on his line. With beaver, it’s a different story. When prices are poor, he will trap, stretch, flesh out, dry, and hold the pelt in the freezer ‘til prices go up. This is where the rub comes in. When a colony of beaver decide to dam a fish-bearing creek or stream, blocking passage to migrating salmon, it’s usually removed. But the animals have acute hearing and sensitive guard hairs, telling them their damn dam is busted, so the instinct to rebuild is strong and immediate. Fortunately, we had Al Bianco as a nuisance trapper around Salmon Arm for many years. As a former trapper/fishery officer, I, too, had a blanket permit from Fish & Wildlife to remove beaver dams on the Salmon River, Canoe Creek, and
Friday, May 16, 2014 Lakeshore News A15
along many streams in the Lumby area, to allow fish passage. But a couple of stories come to mind; one about a lady who lived beside the Salmon River just up from the store. Fisheries had constructed a fish weir (a rocky resting pool for salmon), below her house. Beavers thought it a fine place to construct a dam. Phone calls to our office, then Kamloops, brought little results, so she raised hell with an MLA and whoever else would listen in Victoria. It wasn’t long before a helicopter landed in her yard, with a fishery officer, a biologist, and work began to remove 27 dams. Trapper Dennis Hovey was hired to remove the tree-gnawing critters. Thirteen animals were trapped from one lodge! The elderly owner of a Paxton Valley ranch had applied to the water branch in Kamloops to construct a dam on a small stream adjacent to the home place. After much hullabaloo, with drawings/plans submitted, including a $125 fee, an inspection of the site was granted. On arrival to the ranch, and walking up to the site, all was quiet. Turned out a pair
shuswapoutdoors by Hank Shelley of beavers had constructed the perfect dam for the rancher. Again, while conducting an enforcement patrol through the ranch, because of deer poaching, the owner’s wife was scrambling to salvage dozens of nicesized trout flopping about in a field from a pond. We gathered the fish up in buckets and put them back. A combination of heavy rain, and that beaver dam letting go above the ranch, caused the problem. Although well-constructed with branches, rocks, mud and twigs; over many years pressure from a build-up of acres of flooding water, probably caused Grassy Lake, above Cooke Creek, to let go, causing a massive torrent of trees, rocks, and mud to descend into the Shuswap River two weeks ago.

Lakeshore News travels to Gov’t money for invasive species
Sydney, Australia
Bill and Connie Coleman of Salmon Arm went to Australia for six weeks in the winter, putting 8000 km on their rental car, mostly in New South Wales but also in Queensland and South Australia. They loved the tropical north and the Great Barrier Reef, where they snorkeled and Bill did his first scuba dive. In Adelaide they visited Connie’s email buddy that she met online 13 years ago in a pottery forum. She and her husband hosted the Colemans for their first few days in Australia.
Bill Coleman in pictured in Sydney on January 26th – Australia Day. Australia Day is the official national day of Australia, marking the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the first fleet of British ships at Port Jackson, New South Wales, and raising of the flag of Great Britain at that site by Governor Arthur Phillip. The Colemans receive $10 for having their picture printed, and are entered in the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2014.

COLDSTREAM – The Government of B.C. is providing $59,000 to three organizations in the North Okanagan and Shuswap to help control the spread of invasive plants announced Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo and VernonMonashee MLA Eric Foster recently. “If left unchecked, the potential introduction of invasive species such as zebra mussels in our waters will have a detrimental effect on our pristine lakes and impact thousands of jobs in the tourism sector,” says Kyllo. “This funding will go a long way to educate the public in helping to prevent the spread of invasive species on our land and waters for the benefit of future generations.” The Government of B.C. has awarded grants to the following organizations: • Regional District of North Okanagan, receiving $35,000 • Columbia Shuswap
Regional District, receiving $10,000 • Columbia Shuswap Invasive Species Society, receiving $14,000 The funding will be invested in activities such as raising public awareness of invasive plants, surveying invasive plant populations and actively treating high-priority sites to control their spread. “In addition to the disruption they cause for native species, invasive plants are a significant problem for our agriculture industry,” Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster said. “These funds will help protect our industry and our environment.” Invasive plants are species that have been introduced into B.C. from other areas. They displace our native vegetation and can cause considerable economic and environmental damage, and some pose a health risk to people. Invasive plants may disrupt natural eco-

systems, reduce biodiversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops. These grants are three out of 29, totalling $1.6 million, which are being distributed province-wide to local governments, regional invasive species committees and the Invasive Species Council of B.C. to assist with their activities and support the objectives of the provincial Invasive Plant Program. The Invasive Plant Program identifies sites where invasive plant species have been found and responds rapidly to contain and eradicate them before they become established and start spreading. This funding is in addition to the $809,000 already earmarked by the provincial government for invasive plant control and management in the fiscal 2014-15 year.

Don’t have soft drinks or energy drinks while you’re exercising. Stay properly hydrated by drinking enough water during your workout (just don’t overdo things, as drinking too much water can also be dangerous). While you might need energy drinks for long-distance running, in shorter exercise sessions in the gym, your body will burn the glucose from the soft drink first, before starting to burn body fat. Same goes for eating sweets.

Gloria Boda
At the age of 65, Gloria Boda rejoiced in heaven with her Mother Leona, father William, brothers Bill, Gary, Michael, and sister June. Gloria left behind her loving husband Louis, daughter Lori (Serge) of Grande Prairie, AB, sons, Dwain from Trail, Louis Jr. from Salmon Arm, nine grandchildren, and 2 great grandsons. Also five siblings, Melvin (Faye) from Campbell River, Barb & Ken from Courtney, Mark (Donna) from Maple Ridge, Jamie from Maple Ridge and many nieces and nephews. Gloria was a very relentless worker for the Salvation Army, helping many people along the way and will be greatly missed by them. Gloria was a kind and gentle soul whose heart and smile touched everyone she met. All who knew Gloria are deeply sadden with the loss of such an amazing friend, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Though she only stood five feet tall she never took no gump from anyone. Gloria was known best for her infectious smile and her generous acts of selflessness. Though she may no longer carry on beside us her presence will forever remain in the hearts of those she loved. Rest in peace Mom. Online condolences can be sent through Gloria’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservices.com. Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

Albert Harry Spencley April 26, 1921 - May 12, 2014
Albert Harry Spencley passed away peacefully in Shuswap Lake General Hospital, Salmon Arm, on Monday morning, May 12, 2014 at the age of 93 years. The funeral service will be held from the Salmon Arm Seventh Day Adventist Church on Wednesday, May 21 at 11 a.m. with Pastor Malcolm Graham officiating. Cremation will follow with interment with his late wife, Muriel, in Mt. Ida Cemetery, Salmon Arm. A reception will follow in the church, allowing friends to continue sharing memories. Born in Burleigh Falls, Ontario on April 26, 1921, He worked as a contractor, the first 20 years in the oil Industry, followed by general contract work in many locations of Canada. He met the love of his life, Muriel, in Ontario. During a planned trip to visit family in Victoria, they stopped in Salmon Arm, enjoyed the scenery, and they purchased a home. They lived in Salmon Arm for 20 years before moving to Enderby. Albert is well remembered for his dedication to Muriel and spending countless hours assisting her during her final months in a care home in Armstrong. Giving back to the community was important for Albert and Muriel. They gave years of dedication with St. John’s Anglican Church in Salmon Arm, and then the Seventh Day Church. Both were members of Shuswap Singers. He was a war veteran working with construction of army barracks in Ontario. Albert was a very independent gentleman, his home was his castle; he was determined to continue living at home with nobody fussing over him. Online condolences can be sent through Albert’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservices.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.
