Kaylan Madeira, along with husband Jo Schneider are the businesses’ proprietors and cider makers. They have been making cider for three years; two years ago they both took a cider making course in the U.S. to gain further knowledge of the cider-making process.

An 84 year old male driver from Burnaby crossed the centre line of Highway 3 near the Elks Motel on Friday, June 20 around 2:30 p.m. driving across the oncoming lane and into the Elks parking lot, where part of the Elks sign and planter was destroyed. Police say speed and alcohol were not factors in the accident. The motorist has been charged under the motor vehicle act for failure to keep right. There were no injuries to the driver or passenger.

Village receives results of April business walk Survey reveals nine out of 10 Lower Similkameen business owners are satisfied - or better - with business activity By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Village of Keremeos recently received the results of the April 29 business walk in the Lower Similkameen. The walk involved a short, questionaire posed to nearly 50 businesses in the area, asking three things: - How is business? - What is the greatest challenge your business faces today? - What can be done to help your business thrive? “What stood out for me, was that a lot of the comments we received have already or are being addressed by the local government and the chamber (Similkameen Country),
said Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer. “What’s missing is this information hasn’t been communicated. “Communication is a big issue, we need to communicate to business owners where to go to find business information and incentives,” he added. Bauer was asked if any themes were discovered regarding local business during the business walk. He referred to a pie chart in the report outlining business responses to the question, “How is business? “Roughly half (45 per cent) of local business is saying economic conditions are okay, while roughly half (42 per cent) are saying economic conditions are better than that,” Bauer responded. Noting the 13 per cent who said business was slow or poor, he said those respondents indicated such things as marketing, the type of business, and global competition as the most common issues interfering with their ability to increase their business success. “Overall, I think we uncovered a
fairly good picture,” Bauer concluded. The report listed 16 improvements that respondents would like to see take place in the region to increase the opportunities for successful businesses to grow and thrive. Bauer said the village would be working with Similkameen Country in the near future to address the results of the survey and follow up on other commitments. “We need to increase awareness,” Bauer said, regarding what has been done, and what is being done,” noting copies of the report from the business walk would be made available to business and the public through the village office. Those businesses that requested a follow up to the visit will be sent one as well. An electronic version of the report will also be posted to the both village and Similkameen Country websites. Bauer promised to continue working with Similkameen Country and the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training to implement the results of the survey on the coming months.

CORNER
Similkameen’s first cidery / continued from page 1 Initial production includes three varieties of cider at 6.6 per cent alcohol. There’s Pippin, an extra dry version, Kingston, a semi-sweet rendition and Santa Rosa, a blush cider that has been blended with Santa Rosa plums from the Schneider orchard. “We use all certified organic fruit,” said Madeira, who said she and Joe are fifth generation farmers. Kaylan, who is originally from Oliver, said the name of the company came from the well-travelled route she and Jo used to take to see each other when they first met in 2009. “We crossed Fairview Mountain many times,” she laughed.
Jo and Kaylan’s certified organic orchard comprises 6 -1/2 acres that were planted between four and six years ago. Their farm is known as “Back Achers ” a whimsical name that compliments the name of father in law Schneider’s “Heart Achers Farm”. The two farms are the only acreages involved in the cider making venture. Madeira said their market research defined a demographic in the 20 to 70 year old range. “We think a lot of people will enjoy our product,” she said, adding they plan to sell at farmgate and locally to restaurants and cold beer and wine stores.
“We’re pretty thrilled to be the Similkameen’s first cidermakers,” Madeira said. “It’s exciting to add another stop for tourists and locals as they visit the great wineries around the area.” Fairview Cider’s initial production consisted of 4,500 litres of cider. They will be marketing it in 750ml bottles, at $14 for cider and $16 for the blush version. They expect to open their facility, located at 2080 Ritchie Drive in Cawston, on the Canada Day weekend and henceforth, from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays.

Publisher: Don Kendall 605 7th Avenue, Box 130, Keremeos, B.C. V0X 1N0
Editorial Pipeline decision will reshape viewpoints Last week’s announcement by the federal government that gave a green light to the Northern Gateway pipeline was, obviously, a big disappointment for many Canadians. Many hurdles remain before the project ever sees even one piece of pipe welded, but the fed’s announcement signified a major step forward in the project’s development. Without debating the merits - or not - of the pipeline, it appears to us this decision should, if nothing else, give Canadians the opportunity to take their energy future into our own hands. Simply put, if we can’t get world market prices for our oil from U.S. interests, what other alternatives do we have? Accepting as fact the Northern Gateway can open a new, profitable market for us that lessens our dependence on a single customer, we think the project should be given a thorough consideration by all Canadians. In considering environmental issues, it might make a lot of sense to start talking more seriously about the benefits of a refinery on the west coast, and work toward a goal of having only refined oil products transferred along and off our coasts. It’s our opinion that, pipeline or not, oil is going to flow, one way or another, to the B.C. coastline and offshore to Asian markets. We can choose to understand our economic reality and work to enhance our opportunities within that realm, while carefully looking at and choosing the best environmental choices available, or we can believe that we are capable of maintaining a high standard of living while foregoing all the opportunities that provide it. It’s been said that the Lower Mainland is B.C.’s largest clearcut. One might also argue that the tar sands are nature’s biggest oil spill - all we’re doing is cleaning it up. It all depends on one’s point of view - which will no doubt be shaped profoundly in the years to come, depending on which way we go on projects like this.

A brief history of teacher demands By Tom Fletcher Black Press
A few things have changed since the last allout teacher strike in B.C. That was just two years ago, when the B.C. Teachers’ Federation was coming off its second-ever voluntary agreement with a 16 per cent raise over five years and what the union termed an “enhanced” signing bonus of $4,000. Even with special teacheronly top-ups, BCTF members almost rejected the last of the government’s big-spending pre-Olympic labour deals signed in 2006. By 2012, outraged teachers were back on the legislature lawn, howling for another 16 per cent, with backup vocals provided as usual by HEU, CUPE, BCGEU and other public sector unions that settled for less. Teachers had just sailed through a crippling global recession with a series of raises, but were oblivious to all that. Last week the protest venue switched to Vancouver, where both the
crowd and the demands looked a bit thinner. The signing bonus target is up to $5,000, but the raise is a mere eight per cent over five years (compounded, for those who passed math), plus another huge basket of cash disguised as benefit improvements and so forth. Government negotiators put their total compensation demand at 14.5 per cent. One obvious dodge: they want the bottom two steps of the teacher salary grid dropped. That’s simply a raise for entry-level teachers, rare creatures these days with shrinking enrolment and ironclad seniority rules that allow retired teachers to monopolize substitute work. Something else that’s changed since 2012 is that the government has granted the BCTF’s wish to bargain directly with the province. The education ministry executed a takeover of the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association after last year’s election, and installed veteran industrial union
negotiator Peter Cameron. He’s backed up by long-time labour specialist Lee Doney, whose task is to keep the teacher deal within Treasury Board limits that have defined all other public sector union settlements. Doney made it clear last week that no mediator is going to come in and “split the baby” as long as the BCTF position is so far beyond the current compensation framework. Despite constant union complaints of low wages and deteriorating working conditions in B.C. schools, education grads remain lined up around the block hoping to get in. Why? For those who have been exposed to life outside school for a while, it’s fairly simple. The job market in the real world is tough. Here’s how the real world evaluates a teaching job: Start with 189 working days, each nine hours long as per the accepted definition, and the top-heavy seniority list that places the average teacher salary at around $72,000 a year.

That works out to $42.32 an hour, plus a suite of benefits that most private sector employees can only dream about, starting with three months of primetime vacation. I am occasionally lectured by teachers that the job goes far beyond five hours in the classroom and an additional four hours a day preparing and marking. They throw out different estimates, variously defined. Alas, it’s a salaried job, and we salaried employees in the real world don’t waste a lot of time counting hours. Here’s the work, here’s the deadline, here’s the pay. Take it or leave it. Consider another union demand that seems to be just another thinly disguised raise. The BCTF wants a large increase in preparation time for elementary school. There are no duties being added here. For this one item, government negotiators calculate the cost to taxpayers at $86.2 million every year by the fifth year of the BCTF proposal.

opinion
2014 grads receive some words of advice Majority owner of Black Press, David Black, recently addressed the graduating class of University of Victoria after receiving a doctorate from the instititution. oday is a great day for me. The doctorate is a wonderful honour from a University I have watched grow and flourish into a world-ranked institution. It is also embarrassing because I don’t feel my work is completed yet. Nevertheless, I would like to pass on to the graduating class some lessons I have learned thus far in my career in the hopes they may be of some use. My story is not complex. I received an Engineering degree from UBC and an MBA from Ivey in London. In 1975 I started my own business by buying a small weekly newspaper in Williams Lake. Over the years with the help of a terrific wife, a father who mentored me, and the hard work of a great many employees, we have grown to 200 publications with revenues of half a billion dollars. I had no plan in 1975 to grow the business like this. My only thought was to publish the best paper I could. I worked long hours because we were in debt and we had a growing family. Over time I came to be an expert in every phase of the business. Because of that I fell in love with publishing. My first career lesson for you then, is just show up. If you are like I was at your age you have no idea what career will appeal to you. You don’t have to know. Just dive into something. Work hard. The more skill you develop the more you will enjoy the work. You will know when or if it is time to move on to something else. I mentioned my wife and father and what a help they were to me. My second piece of advice is to surround yourself with bright people, both as workmates and friends. Listen to them and help them in return. With my four children on our companies’ Boards of Directors and an excellent management team in place I thought, now that I am over 65, I would be easing back somewhat, enjoying more sailing, and babysitting grandchildren. My only real career regret was that I hadn’t had a chance to practice any engineering. It’s funny how life unfolds. Instead, over the last two years I have embarked on one of the biggest engineering projects in Canada’s history and I am working harder than ever. When not working on Black Press I am consumed by trying to build a B.C. oil refinery, pipeline and tanker fleet at a total cost of $32 billion. So my third career message for you is that you cannot know your future. By all means plan. But don’t assume things will go as expected. I will tell you a little about the refinery project because it leads to my final and
T
most important piece of advice. The project is called Kitimat Clean. The refinery will convert Alberta’s bitumen to gasoline and diesel, products which float and evaporate if there is a spill at sea. Bitumen acts differently. If it is spilled off our coast it will sink and we won’t be able to recover it. It will also blanket the intertidal zone and we won’t be able to remove it. The damage could last for hundreds of years. I got into this project to help ensure this doesn’t happen. A world-scale refinery has other great advantages for us all: it will create 10,000 new permanent jobs in B.C. and it will generate billions of dollars of new taxes annually for government coffers. My children and I are concerned about the environment like most of you are, so we decided to spend an extra $3 billion to build the refinery with new Canadian technology, cutting CO2 emissions by 5 million tonnes per year. This is equivalent to avoiding the annual emissions of 1.2 million cars. The refinery will be so clean it will more than compensate for the extra CO2 emissions in the oilsands. Clearly we need to ratchet down our use of fossil fuels. But that does not influence whether to build a refinery in Canada. Asia needs more refined fuel every year. If we don’t build the refinery in Canada it will be built in Asia. By shipping our bitumen to Asia for refining, we not only put the ocean at risk and lose the enormous value-added benefits, the planet will end up with twice the CO2 emissions. Unfortunately for a variety of reasons our big oil companies are not interested in a new Canadian refinery. The president of one of our largest oil companies told me that he agrees it is viable to refine bitumen in Canada, and that it is nation building at its best, but that no oil company in Alberta will do it. In fact some oppose it. So it came down to this. If I thought it important enough, I would have to spearhead it. That is what I am doing. I hope by setting high standards we can show the way forward for responsible management of Canada’s bitumen from an economic and an environmental point of view. My final message to you today is simple. When your big challenge or opportunity arises do the same. Do it better. When you know something is wrong step up. Take a risk. Challenge tradition and fight vested interests. Use your education, experience and networks in a positive way to benefit yourself and your family of course, but whenever you can always try to improve the the world around you as well. The satisfaction that gives you will fulfill you. Go to it graduates and best wishes for the future.
Wise words about celebrating from the Keremeos Substance Abuse Committee The Keremeos and area Substance Abuse Committee issued its annual grad message to Similkameen students this week, as part of this year’s grad ceremonies. It read: “You are about to mark a milestone in your life, There will be more to come, of course, but this one will be a big one. You and your classmates will be graduating. In these next days you will be flooded with congratulations, in the forms of words and hugs and cards and gifts. Each one of these comes from persons who care about you. We want to add ours to all of them, and
also to extend our sincere best wishes to you as you move toward the opportunities, challenges and responsibilities of adulthood. (Believe it or not, adulthood can be a really good experience.) Not only will you be congratulated, you and your friends will be celebrating this milestone in several ways. There will be the graduation ceremony itself - festive in its own way, but also somewhat sobering in its words and tones. It is, after all, a pretty serious event. You will also be celebrating with proms and parties - some formal ones continued on page 17

Make Household Drafts A Thing Of The Past
ALL DESIGNS, PLANS AND RENDERINGS © COPYRIGHT JENISH HOUSE DESIGN LIMITED
Outside is below freezing and the heater is working overtime, but throughout the house there are cold, drafty areas. Does this sound familiar? Specialists in the field say that any cold or drafty areas within a home are typically caused by air leaks within the building envelope. Air leaks can make rooms uncomfortable and allow the air to escape, forcing heating equipment to work continually to compensate. Whether building a new home or renovating, it may be worthwhile to consider a complete solution that makes household drafts a thing of the past. A modern insulation material, like that offered by innovators Icynene, can both insulate and air seal in one step. Spray foam insulation seals the entire building envelope and provides a cost-saving option for homeowners looking to reduce energy waste and save on their monthly energy bills. Over the long-term, the savings quickly add up. Modifications to the way you manage your home’s energy consumption leads to significant financial rewards and reassurance. Consulting a professional, such as an energy rater or inspector, will help make an educated assessment to the actual requirements within the home and where the value lies. More information can be found at www.icynene.com.

Ajna Jazz Trio features Keremeos musician Keremeos native Jonnie Bridgman brings the Ajna Jazz Trio to this year’s Barbeque King By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Ajna jazz trio, led by Keremeosborn saxophonist Jonnie Bridgman will be providing entertainment at the Similkameen BBQ King in Keremeos at the Grist Mill. Rapidly becoming one of the area’s premiere wine events, this year’s Barbeque King takes place from 5 -9 p.m, Saturday, July 12, at a cost of $80. Bridgman grew up in Keremeos, attending high school here. His most recent connection was a two year stint teaching music at Similkameen Elementary Secondary School from 2010-2012. He spoke to the Review in mid June about his latest endeavours in the music field. Review: What are you bringing with you to the Grist Mill? What type of music will you be playing? Bridgman: I’ll be touring with a four piece jazz group.We’ll have a bass, saxophone, trumpet player and a singer. Basically, we’re a jazz band. We’ve just finshed a CD, and we’re ready to tour. We’ll be playing some standard jazz pieces, there’s some original work that is on the CD as well, and out music will have a
strong vocal component. We play the whole world of jazz. Our band has a modern sound that isn’t based on the traditional swing tunes. It’s a fusion - funk, rhythm and blues and jazz mix - a unique sound. Review: What is your music schedule like these days? How many bands are you playing with? Bridgman: This summer is busy - we’re booked for the next couple of weeks, and I’m also playing in a funk band called New Groovement. We’ll be touring music festivals including one in Port Renfrew and we’ll also be making our first trip to Vancouver. Prior to our Okanagan tour, we’ll be participating in a festival in Smithers in early July. Review: What is a typical venue for you? Bridgman: We’re all over the map. We play festivals, bars, summer markets and other events. We do private events like weddings. We try to be flexible. Review: Who does your music appeal to? Bridgman: Hopefully it appeals to die hard jazz fans. Our music pairs well with an event like the Barbeque King - it’s the right setting for our type of music. I think people will find it music that is interesting to their ears. We’ll try to keep it lively. Editor’s note: Jonnie Bridgman will also be celebrating his 29th birthday on the day of the Barbeque King.

Simple math for BCTF: economic growth = higher wages By Jordan Bateman Cdn Taxpayers Federation Whatever the final government deal is with the B.C. Teachers Federation (BCTF), and whenever it’s settled, the BCTF must quit opposing economic growth if it ever hopes to accomplish its long-term salary and class size goals. Most taxpayers, understandably, are not interested in shelling out more money to the government. There has been no public rush to open wallets for big raises for teachers – or any other government sector union. The BCTF’s longheld desire to go back to year 2000 tax levels in order to fund raises for its teachers, would gut most families financially – B.C. budget documents show a two-income family of four, making $90,000 per year, would pay $6,234 a year in provincial income tax, nearly double what they pay today. Taxpayers can’t afford that kind of hike, and the B.C. government knows it. That’s why they are focusing on growing the B.C. economy, in order to generate more money from sources other than Joe and Jane Taxpayer. But here the BCTF’s chickens have come home to
roost: the BCTF, inexplicably and wildly overstepping its bounds as a union meant to represent the interests of teachers at the bargaining table, has come out against virtually every significant economic development project proposed in B.C. Why would the teachers’ union pass a motion against the Northern Gateway Pipeline, which would generate $1.2 billion for taxpayers over its first three decades in operation? How could that possibly serve the interests of its members, who want higher wages and smaller classes – things that revenue could help address? How did it serve the teachers’ union to reject the Prosperity Mine in the Chilcotin, which would have generated $5.52 billion in new tax revenue for the province, plus another $4.3 billion for the federal government? Why would the teachers’ union oppose the Kinder Morgan pipeline proposal, months before any plan had been released? Why is the B.C. teachers’ union fighting the Keystone XL pipeline, which would connect Alberta to the Gulf of Mexico, never coming near B.C.? What does it have to do with B.C. classrooms or teach-
Business renovation / continued from page 5 news stories surrounding the federal government’s announcement last week regarding the Northern Gateway pipeline. Teachers in arbitration in 1957 A second article in the edition dealt with, ironically, teachers pay. Apparently in 1957, a high school teacher with a university degree, after two years of teaching, was paid $36 a year less than a janitor working for the school board. In February, 1957, arbitration hearings were taking place between the Vancouver school board and the teachers, after they rejected a 10.8 per cent increase offered by the board. Teachers of the day were asking for an $800 a year increase that would boost salaries that were ranging from $3,000 to $6,000.Teachers were also looking for a reduction in years - from 18 to 15 - it took to reach the top pay level. Maybe the old adage “the more things change, the more they stay the same” is true, after all.
ers? Yet the BCTF opposed all of these economic development measures. The BCTF flag flew high at an anti-fracking rally in Vancouver last month – yes, the union opposed the fledgling liquefied natural gas industry too. Why would the BCTF join Occupy Vancouver, protesting against the same wealth-generating
corporations their teachers’ pensions are heavily invested in: TD Bank ($155.7m in pension investments), ScotiaBank ($124.3m), RBC ($166.7m), Bank of Montreal ($75.2m) and Bell Canada ($61.2m)? The BCTF opposed the CanadaChina Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement. Yet, the BCTF fought it – with no
thought given to the $140 million their pension has invested in Chinese state-controlled companies. Despite actively opposing all of these economic drivers, the BCTF still cries poor, noting teachers start here with a salary of $49,410, way behind Alberta’s $58,500. Alberta teachers get paid more for a simple reason: that province has aggressively pursued
economic growth and could afford more. The oil sands, the single rate tax, and other economy boosters generate billions that flow into the provincial treasury, making it possible for Albertans to pay their teachers more – while their taxpayers shell out $50 per week less than identical British Columbians. Alberta teachers have benefitted from Alberta’s economic
growth, so it’s probably no surprise the Alberta Teachers’ Association isn’t out campaigning against the Northern Gateway pipeline. Want a raise, B.C. teachers? Want to address class size and composition? Then quit fighting every economic (and tax revenue growing) opportunity that comes B.C.’s way. Cause and effect – it’s a lesson you taught us.

Cook up some Canada Day fun As the second-largest country in the world, Canada has much to celebrate. Each and every year, Canadians gather to commemorate Canada Day on July 1. Frequently called Canada’s birthday, Canada Day, previously known as Dominion Day, marks the joining of the Province of Canada, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick on July 1, 1867. It wasn’t until July 1, 1917 that the first official Canada Day celebration was held to mark this day of independence. Offices, banks, schools, and many businesses are closed on Canada Day. Some stores may remain open to cater to bargain-hunting Canada Day shoppers. Should an American visit Canada on Canada Day, he or she might mistake it for America’s own Independence Day. Celebrations of both holidays are similar, with parades, fireworks, concerts, and special outdoor events. Friends and families gather for barbecues and pool parties while the red-and-white flag of the country flies in the breeze. Though the celebrations are similar, Canadians can add their own measure of gusto to Canada Day parties and gatherings with foods that are inspired by Canada. Think about serving these culinary delights at the next Canada Day celebration. * Classic Quebec Poutine: The traditional poutine is served with a pile of crispy french fries topped with a handful of cheddar curds and a chicken- or veal-based gravy. The french fries can be made from Prince Edward Island potatoes, while cheese curds traditionally are made from the Frommage Beaucronne brand. This comfort food can be enjoyed by children and adults alike and served as an appetizer before more substantial fare is served. * Maple Candies: Maple syrup is exported from the country, and a maple leaf adorns the national flag. Celebrants can pay homage to the maple tree by serving foods that feature maple syrup in some way. Mix several cups of maple syrup with 1/3 cup butter and a teaspoon of lemon extract. Bring to a boil until a candy thermometer reads 233 F, roughly 111 C. Allow to cool a few minutes and pour into candy molds. Let cool and harden, then enjoy. * Moose Burgers: Rather than cooking beef or bison burgers, opt for moose meat. Moose are the largest members of the deer family, and this wild game can be an alternative to the standard meats. Moose meat is a lean source of protein and has less than one gram of total fat per serving. Ground moose meat can be used to form burgers cooked over the grill. * Salmon Specialities: For a different take on barbecue, try grilled salmon harvested from waters in British Columbia. Salmon is a heart-healthy food rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which also promote brain health. Maple-crusted salmon may be a way to meld two Canadian flavors together in one meal. There are a number of different ways to incorporate new food traditions into Canada Day celebrations. Experiment with the flavors you love and pay tribute to the rich tradition of Canada.

Fireworks have a colorful history Independence Day celebrations are marked by many spectacles. But few can garner the “oohs and aahs” of a good fireworks display. Summer is a time of year when the resonating booms and bright spills of color that dot the night sky are quite common. Fireworks, which can be traced back thousands of years, have an interesting history. Many historians believe fireworks originated in ancient China as early as 200 B.C. It is thought that early fireworks were not the gunpowder-filled explosives of today, but something made from bamboo, a material native to China. Chunks of bamboo, a thick, fast-growing grass, may have been tossed onto a fire as fuel. The rods would blacken, but eventually explode in the fire, causing a loud, frightening noise. This noise was a result of trapped air and sap inside of the bamboo rods heating and expanding until the bamboo exploded under the pressure. The exploding bamboo was used to ward off animals, other people and evil spirits. Chinese alchemists eventually stumbled on a recipe for basic gunpowder, mixing together saltpeter (potassium nitrate, then a common kitchen seasoning), charcoal, sulfur, and other ingredients. This powder was packed inside of hollow bamboo rods to produce an even bigger bang. Soon paper tubes replaced the bamboo, and fireworks were used for more than just scaring away spirits, as they were routinely included in special celebrations and even deployed during military engagements. Fireworks may have begun in China, but they were soon being used around the world. Italians had been fascinated with fireworks ever since the explorer Marco Polo brought back firecrackers from Asia in 1292. During the Renaissance in Europe, the Italians began to develop fireworks into a true art form. Since this was a period of artistic creativity and expression, many new fireworks were created. “Firemasters” were fireworks experts in medieval England. They worked with “green men,” who wore caps of leaves to protect themselves from raining sparks from the fireworks. In 1758, the Jesuit missionary Pierre Nicolas le Cheron d’Incarville, living in Beijing, wrote to the Paris Academy of Sciences about the methods and composition of fireworks, including how to make many types of Chinese fireworks. The world remains fascinated by fireworks even now. Fireworks displays have grown more elaborate over the years, requiring the skills of pyrotechnic experts, carpenters and digital sound masters. Various powders and chemicals mixed together produce a rainbow display of colors and aerial tricks that would likely have shocked the earliest firework creators. Not forgetting its origins, China continues to produce and export more fireworks than any other country in the world. Safety experts recommend the public leave fireworks to the professionals and sit back and relax during awe-inspiring pyrotechnic displays. As the United States and Canada prepare for their respective Independence Day celebrations, flashy fireworks displays are bound to be part of the festivities.

Wise words about celebrating from the Keremeos Substance Abuse Committee / continued from page 7 and perhaps some less formal and spontaneous. Rightly so, these will be way less serious and lots more festive. Quite simply, their purpose will be to have fun together. That’s one of the best ways to celebrate anything - so please, have a great time celebrating your graduation. Yet please also keep these things in mind: let us highlight two words that we’ve already used. One is “so-
ber”. It’s a good word. It’ss easy just to “go with the flow” as we party and play, and to forget the personal and social importance of making wise decisions for your own safety and well-being. Please stay sober as you play. The other word is “together”. Have fun together. Watch out for each other. Keep each other safe. Be a real friend to your friend and classmates.
We don’t mean to preach to you, or rain on your parade. We ask this because we care about you. You’re worth caring about. So, please take care. Cheers and best Cawston Glass wishes, on behalf of the Keremeos and area Education and � Bug Screens Substance Abuse 250-499-2018 Committee

CHEGWIN
JYL LESLEY:
It is with deep sorrow we announce the death of Jyl Lesley Chegwin on June 15, 2014 at her residence at Cawston, B.C. Jyl was born on September 14, 1962 in Swan River, MB to loving parents Jim and Mearle (Diamond) Chegwin, mixed farmers in the Big Woody district. She did her schooling in the valley, was acƟve in 4H, curling, gymnasƟcs, and the Swan Valley School Band. She established many close friendships with a core group of about 10 girlͲfriends and an interesƟng string of boyfriends. Jyl went on to Olds College, AB where she took a 2 year program in horƟculture. Her professional life was based on agriculture with work for BC Forestry Services and then with her life centering around Cloverdale Produce Farms and Tim Singh, she became a founding member of the Fraser Valley Direct MarkeƟng AssociaƟon. Circle Farm Tours also took much of her Ɵme and then, realinjing the importance of farm diversiĮcaƟon, she became a founding director of the BC Agri Tourism Alliance (BCATA). She worked teaching best pracƟces and oversaw the provincial highway signs program to indicate Agri-tourism. She became a vocal member and supporter of the Eorth American Farmer͛s Direct MarkeƟng Assoc. (EAFDMA). Jyl had a giŌ for speaking to farmers and leading them into new farm pracƟces through diversifying their income streams. Jyl became one of the Įrst auditors for the Environmental Farm Plan and she was respected in these organinjaƟons because she was a farmer, intelligent and very charming too. Jyl helped to iniƟate the BC School Fruit and Vegetable Snack program. This program provides snacks of locally grown fruits and vegetables to school across BC. Jyl͛s Įnal oī vineyard professional years were with Terra LinksͬRoddicks managing the distribuƟon of farm supplies and selling seed to large scale farmers. Jyl considered her home in New Westminster BC and The VineGlass Winery and Renewal Resort one of her greatest professional and personal achievements. She and Roger have dreamed, planned, and built a resort area, vineyard and winery with much persistence and hard work. They have been ũoined in this eīort by amanjing friends who consider it a pleasure to come and do a hard days work followed by great wine and pinjnja. Sons, Clayton and Kai were uppermost in Jyl’s thoughts. She planned her life around their acƟviƟes, sports, and celebrated their every achievement. She threw the best birthday parƟes for them with food, fun and an unlimited amount of guests. Jyl’s love for her boys was without limit or reservaƟon. Roger brought his family into Jyl’s circle with parents Gerry and Lynda, brothers Bert, David, Norman, sisters Joanne and Karen as well as their spouses and many children. But for Jyl, his children Dionne and Gerry were most important and she welcomed them into her life with open arms. A year and a half ago, Dionne and Darren made Roger and Jyl grandparents, a role she was more than happy to fulĮll. Gerry has been a wonderful extra son doƟng on Jyl’s every wish. Her giŌs of friendship, love and generosity meant no one was turned away from Jyl’s table. Her pies are legendary͊ Good food, fun and crokinole have again made Jyl’s circle of friends grow. Jyl could walk into a crowd of people knowing no one and leave as a friend to all. Jyl gave of herself freely to everyone and accomplished so much aŌer her diagnosis. Her children all are on their career paths, she met Kai and Clay’s signiĮcant others, traveled to Italy one more Ɵme, drank the wine from the fruit they grew, had paying guests in the suites they developed and built. Jyl had one unfulĮlled dream and that was to ride an elephant. Jyl will Įnally rest in an elephant shaped urn and be at peace. Jyl leaves Roger Hol to cherish her memory, sons Clayton and Kai Singh, sisters Heather (Tom) Orlukiewicnj and Lyn Crane (Hammie Hamilton), brothers Ross (Keta Lehto) and Cal Chegwin, Step-children, Gerry and Dionne (Darren Hart), granddaughter, Kaliyah, Uncle Bill Chegwin, Marlene and Amanda Primrose, Gerry Sr. and Lynda Hol and extended family. Jyl struggled with brain cancer and her determined vision was to Įnd a cure. We invite you to make a donaƟon to ͞Yuest for the Cure͟ through CIBC 07560 ʹ 0064130 or Janice at the VineGlass 778-809-6717. Bring a crokinole board if you have one. See you on Saturday, June 21, 2014 at 2:00 at the VineGlass. Interment of Jyl’s ashes will take place at Fairdale Cemetery in Big Woody, Swan River, MB Aug 9 2014. Details will follow. Condolences and tributes may be directed to the family by visiƟng www.nunes-poƫnger.com

WHAT IF I’M HUNGRY BETWEEN MEALS - RAW FOOD DIET By Sandra Butler PART I June is a wonderful time of year to incorporate a raw food diet. The fresh local vegetables and fruits have started arriving at our markets. It makes me happy to live in this beautiful part of the world where nature’s bounty is so plentiful. Did you take the challenge in our previous article? to spend two weeks eating a 100% raw food diet? Perhaps you tried it for a day or two but found that you were hungry between meals and, perhaps you felt so peckish that you succumbed to having an unhealthy snack because it was convenient. Or you arrived home in the evening starving, had intentions of making a raw food dinner, but just had to have some potato chips, which you found lurking at the back of the cupboard just to tide you over and then “uncooking” seemed fruitless so you ordered a pizza instead. Perhaps you thought about raw food snacks but couldn’t come up with any ideas. Staying satisfied between meals is the secret to succeeding in eating raw. The convenience factor plays a major part in this so, be prepared by making snacks ahead of time and never leave home without packing something for the road. Be sure that you have some raw food snacks available while grocery shopping. Also, carry snacks in your car, your gym bag, your office drawer and in handy packets in the fridge. SNACKS IDEAS: Fresh fruits are nature’s gift to snack time. Buy organic, wash them well and munch away. Cut vegetables such as carrots, celery, and bell peppers combined with nut butter, a pate or hummus are great. The nut butter, pate or hummus will provide protein to keep you satiated longer. Nori Rolls or homemade flax crackers and spreads. Smoothies are great – put one in your coffee cup “to go”. The energy they provide is much better than having a caffeine high. Homemade energy bars and cookies are always a treat. Create your own trail mix by combining raw nuts and seeds with superfoods such as raw cacao nibs and goji berries. Dehydrated fruits, such as bananas, apples, and figs are great and they keep well. Raw, soaked unsalted nuts can be dehydrated with sea salt and spices. Frozen raw popsicles! Kids of any age love these. Make some Raw Ice Cream Parfaits. Also, check out your local natural food stores. They offer raw snacks such as kale chips, energy bars and flax crackers and fresh dips such as hummus and salsa. Be sure to include raw food chocolates at Easter time when temptation is easy to succumb to.
Quinoa (pronounced Keen-wa), is the only plant food that contains all ten essential amino acids. Quinoa is actually a seed of a grain-like crop related to beets. It cooks like rice and is a nutritionally-sound food source to add to your diet.
MEDITERRANEAN DIET
The Mediterranean diet seems to be the best for a long healthy life. Imagine a pyramid with the widest bottom part listing fruits, vegetables, grains, olive oil, beans, nuts, legumes and seeds (like quinoa). The next level up contains fish and seafood. Above that is poultry, eggs, cheese and yogurt. And at the very top and smallest part of the pyramid: meats and sweets.
KIDNEYS’ JOB IMPORTANT
Our kidneys’ job is to filter our blood. They filter about 40 gallons of fluid every day. They hold back substances your body needs and let the rest go out in the urine. High blood pressure or diabetes can damage the kidneys and if not controlled can result in kidney failure.
KEEP YOURSELF HYDRATED
During the hot days of summer, it’s important to keep hydrated. About 90% of our body’s cooling comes from the evaporation of sweat from our skin. During heavy exertion in hot weather, we can lose two or more litres of water in an hour. Keep your water consumption up to prevent dehydration. There are many summer ailments that can make our lives miserable. It may be sunburn, allergies, poison ivy, insect bites or simple diarrhea from eathing too much fruit. Our pharmacists are always available for advice on the best treatment.
