The friends you thought you could count on turn out to be the real deal, Capricorn. Just see what they have in store for you this week. You will be so surprised.
AQUARIUS
It is okay to have strong opinions, Aquarius. But respect the opinions of others who may disagree with your point of view. Learn how to walk away from pointless situations.
PISCES
There’s more to the story than meets the eye, Pisces. Quick judgement may land you in hot water. Wait for the dust to settle.
ARIES
Aries, take the high road when you find yourself in the midst of a disagreement with a friend. It may be tempting to stick to your guns, but the disagreement is nothing too significant.
TAURUS
Much is going on, Taurus, and you have trouble zeroing in on a focal point. Unless you make a list of all you want to accomplish, you may get lost in the shuffle.
GEMINI
You sometimes change your moods on a whim, Gemini. But lately you have been more steadfast in your convictions. This behavior will continue for some time.
CANCER
Don’t make any rash moves in the next few days, Cancer. For whatever reason your common sense meter is a little off. You may want to run ideas past a trusted friend for a while.
LEO
Leo, unless you try you will never be able to tell if something is within your capabilities. Do not be afraid to fail. It’s better than putting in no effort at all.
VIRGO
Virgo, you’re wearing your heart on your sleeve this week. Don’t worry, as your willingness to share your emotions will endear you to others.

It’s back to school time – hopefully – and while the kids are probably more focused on the latest must-have gadgets or fashions, one of the most often overlooked accessories is which backpack to purchase. When I watch our neighborhood kids walk to and from the bus, I am often alarmed to see a tiny student struggling to walk and balance a huge backpack on their shoulder. Choosing the right backpack for your child is extremely important. The statistics show that kids using an incorrectly-fitted backpack will experience a significant negative impact on their health. One study looked at 11-15 year old students and found 64% of them reported back pain due to a heavy backpack. Another found that 55% of students carry a pack that is heavier than the suggested 10% of their body weight. In other words, a 60 pound child should carry no more than 6 pounds! When children are overloaded with weight in their backpack, it causes excessive stress and strain on their necks, backs, and other joints. In many children, this overloading will cause pain and discomfort as well as structural changes in their spines, which

can have a life-long effect on their health. Signs that indicate a backpack is too heavy for your child: • Changes in posture when wearing it. • If they have difficulty putting it on or taking it off. • If there is any pain, numbness or tingling in their limbs. • If there are any red marks on the skin after taking it off. So, what should you look for when shopping for a new pack? The shoulder straps should be wide and well-padded. There should be a padded waist strap that reduces back and shoulder strain and shifts the weight onto the hips and pelvis. Look for a bag that has multiple compartments so the contents can be more evenly distributed. The final thing to look for is that the length of the pack matches the height of your child. A child with an 18-inch long spine will not be able to properly support a 30-inch pack. Once the proper size bag is purchased, parents then need to show their children how to properly wear it. Make sure they are using both shoulder straps and the waist strap is fastened. This enables the majority of the

pack weight to be placed on the pelvis, reducing strain and pull on their neck. Next, make sure the shoulder straps are adjusted for length so the bottom of the bag is not more than a few inches below the waistline and make sure the pack and contents do not weight more than 10% of their body weight. The last point is that all children should be checked by a chiropractor with a special interest in pediatrics. The majority of adult spinal problems I see on x-rays often originate from spinal problems as a child. Back to school usually involves a lot more postural stresses on kids from sitting and carrying overweight/unbalanced packs. Children should be checked to ensure they have a stress-free spine and an optimally functioning nervous system. As the twig is bent, so grows the tree. If you need help ensuring the correct fit for your child’s backpack, stop in to Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at 661 Ross Street NE and we will gladly have a look. For posture testing and a health check for your child, call 250803-0224.

The benefits of green tea
Green tea lowers risk of cholesterol, cancer and the list goes on… We are hearing more and more about green tea in the last few years. This tea is also called Camellia sinensis. Both green tea and black tea come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis; however, they are processed differently. The leaves for black tea are fully oxidized /fermented while those for green teas are lightly steamed before being dried. In Asian culture, green tea is often consumed daily. This tea has been used for its great taste and beneficial antioxidants and anti-carcinogenic properties. Green tea has one of the highest content of flavonoids (one type antioxidant) compared to other plants (15% of the leaf by dry weight). More and more research is now suggesting that antioxidants may have a protective role to play in certain conditions such as heart disease, stroke and even cancer. Much research has been done on green tea and its effect on weight loss. It lowers bad cholesterol and increases good cholesterol. It increases mental alertness, so sip this tea when making decisions. It also has potential for its positive effect on prevention of Alzheimer’s
disease. Studies have showed that green tea extract has a positive role in treating skin condition like dandruff, psoriasis and skin lesions seen in lupus. A temperature of 165-185 degrees is ideal for steeping green tea. If caffeine in this tea is a concern, then know that the amount of caffeine in green tea is half of what is in coffee. People on certain medication, including blood thinners or on chemotherapy, should consult a health care provider before taking this tea. In any case, please consult your doctor before trying anything new. People with kidney stones should limit their use of green tea or consult a doctor before consuming more of this tea. Fresh green tea has the most beneficial antioxidant properties. People who have a poor iron status should avoid drinking tea with meals and up to at least one hour after the meal. Any adverse effects that tea might have on iron absorption are then likely to be minimized. A visit to one of our health stores might be a good idea. Beat the cooler weather, enjoy the taste of green tea, and reap its benefits. Readers with enquiries may contact Kosha Vaidya via email at koshahealing@gmail.com.

Canadian Parents for French is offering out-of-school activities during the labour dispute for students to practice their French. The Puppet Club will have its first meeting from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 11 at Uptown Askew’s in the upstairs meeting room. CPF will be having its first meeting of the year to discuss this and other activities at noon on Wednesday, September 10, again at the uptown Askew’s in the upstairs meeting room. Possible activities include arts and crafts, hiking and movie nights. Everyone is welcome. Bring your ideas! See you there!
In last week’s edition of Lakeshore News (August 29, 2014), a photo showed the isolette that had been recently purchased for the Shuswap Lake General Hospital through a matching grant of $25,000 from the Sandra Schmirler Foundation and funds raised at the EZ Rock 2014 Radiothon. Missing from the information was the involvement of the Shuswap Hospital Foundation. The hospital applied to the Foundation for the purchase of the isolette, and the Shuswap Hospital Foundation named the isolette as the focus for the Radiothon 2014 donations. As well, it was the Shuswap Hospital Foundation that applied for the matching grant from Sandra Schmirler Foundation to put towards the purchase of the isolette.

TEACHERS’ STRIKE CONTINUES After two months on the picket line, teachers are continuing their strike. Hundreds of millions separate the teacher’s union and the province. Negotiations between the two broke down Saturday when veteran mediator Vince Ready walked away from the bargaining table because the two sides were too far apart. A Salmon Arm woman asks on Facebook: “Since when did the BCTF start dictating the curriculum for public education in BC? Go to this document: http://bctf.ca/uploadedFiles/Public/SocialJustice/Publications/SJLens.pdf. Page 4 illustrates how the BCTF encourages teachers to go against the school’s / principal’s policies. This union is clearly indoctrinating not only teachers, but students, to the BCTF’s ideals on social justice. This is WRONG. BCTF is indoctrinating our students to be militant, as it has done with teachers.” DOES SPEED KILL? NOT ON MY TRIP TO ALBERTA I’ve had some criticism from readers because I wrote that I like the increased speed limit on the Coquihalla. Speed used to kill, but now highways are better, cars are better, drivers of transport trucks have mandatory rest times, and governments are having seniors 80+ checked for their ability to react quickly. I drove 1,000 km to the Edmonton area on Aug. 22 and found I had to go with the flow. If I drove the speed limit, I would have been a hazard on the highway. The Rogers Pass is a fast highway with many passing lanes. I had to go with the flow. Driving Highway 1 through the Banff National Park was also fast. North of Calgary going with the flow meant driving about 130km/h in the slow lane. One time I looked down on the speedometer and saw that my SmartCar was going 150! Whoa! Ease up on the pedal! I didn’t see one accident on the way there, nor on the way back. CAUSE OF AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS Distracted driving causes many accidents now because people are addicted to their phones. They want to read their emails and texts. When my cell phone rings, I pull over and answer it. Remember when police checked for seat belts? Now they watch for drivers who are drunk on alcohol or high on drugs.
It is important to be alert when driving, because drowsiness causes accidents. I eat while driving, I drink coffee or pop for the caffeine, and stop every two hours for a timed 15-minute break outside the car. LATE FOR WEDDING, FUNERAL, MEMORIAL SUPPER Two accidents near Tappen and one in the Okanagan on Saturday of the Labour Day weekend caused many people to be late because highways were closed both ways for hours. Thank goodness for cell phones at a time like this. On the morning of Aug. 30, a pickup was travelling south in the fast lane near Duck Lake on Hwy 97, and was observed slowly veering across the painted median and into the path of a northbound sedan, that tried to avoid the pickup. They collided head-on. Two collisions occurred on the highway in the Tappen area on Saturday morning. A pickup truck towing a trailer crashed into the rear of a semi-truck and trailer; both were heading east at the time. An hour later and three kilometres away from the first crash, a man and woman were driving eastbound on a motorcycle when they crashed into a pickup truck that was also heading east. For pictures and details, go to www.castanet.net ALLOWABLE 2015 RENT INCREASE ANNOUNCED The Residential Tenancy Office has calculated that the allowable rent increase that takes effect in 2015 is to be no greater than 2.2 per cent. The formula for determining the percentage amount is inflation rate plus two percent. The landlord must give the tenant at least three month’s notice. A form is available at www.rto.gov.bc.ca. RETIRED NURSES’ LUNCH SEPT. 19 The annual luncheon for retired nurses from the Salmon Arm hospital will be held on Friday, Sept. 19 at the Fifth Avenue Senior’s Activity Centre. Mix and mingle starts at 11:30, lunch is at at 12:30. Cost is $12. To reserve, write Linda Brown at uffdamay@telus.net TOUR HANEY VILLAGE AND ENJOY FOOD & DRINKS For the 17th year, a harvest celebration will take place at R. J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum. It will be on Sun., Sept. 14 from 3–6 p.m. Tickets are $25 and include three tasty sample tickets. Additional tickets can be pur-
chased for $3 each at the event and you can use them to sample any of the food or beverage menu items at the celebration.

While there you can explore the village, museum and beautiful gardens. The village covers 12 acres of the 40-acre park. Thirteen original or replica buildings tell stories of Salmon Arm.

It’s the 100th anniversary of 4-H in Canada so there will be a lot more participation by various clubs. Look for information on the 100 years of 4-H. www.salmonarmfair.com SALMON ARM HAS AN ADDICTION CENTRE Foothills Centre for Change had its grand opening on Aug. 22. The 10-bed residential private pay addictions treatment facility on Foothill Road has 10 beds and caters to men and women 18 and over. Addictions being treated by experienced staff are substance and alcohol abuse and gambling. http://www.foothillscentre.com GIRL GUIDE ENJOYS RIFLE SHOOTING THE MOST A Surrey mother wrote a letter-to-the-editor to the Okanagan Advertiser thanking everyone in Enderby who helped her daughter and over 2,000 others have such a wonderful time at SOAR. The letter was in the August 6 issue. This is one paragraph: “Also, thank you to the people from the local Fish and Game Club. She participated in Rifle Shooting and it was her favourite activity! She proudly showed us her target where she had registered five out of 15 hits. She phoned her grandpa in Nova Scotia (a man of few words and owner of many rifles) and they had the longest phone conversation with her explaining all about her new shooting skills and him promising to take her out next summer during a visit.” sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

To Mayor Nancy Cooper and council, thank you very much for showing us that you have no interest of listening to the very people that put you in office; not that I voted for you, but I certainly won’t now! I encourage people to drive by and have a look at it, and come to the same conclusion that we have: that this park is unsafe and won’t hold the interest of the kids for long! M. Lawson, Canoe

New playground in Canoe doesn’t measure up
I am writing to voice my opinion on the new playground in Canoe! Who’s brainiac idea was this? What happened to swings, slides and merry-go-rounds? This pile of rocks and one tire swing does NOT make a playground; what’s worse is, $100,000.00–yes, you read that right–of our tax dollars was spent on this so-called playground. The people of Canoe were supposed to be included in the planning of this park, yet not one person that I have talked to was asked about it; there was no inquiry, and no input! What a slap in the face to the tax-paying citizens of Canoe and Salmon Arm! Over the weekend, a few kids were playing on it and one hurt himself bad enough to go to the hospital! This

What I learned from my kids, Duma, this summer II
I ran out of room in last week’s column and so this week I’m picking up from where I left off. The list of things “I Learned From My Kids This Summer” has grown over the years; especially when I throw in things I’ve also learned from our cat. So here we go again. The list that doesn’t seem to end! • If you need weeds pulled, have a birthday party, invite lots of friends and have a scavenger hunt that includes collecting a few thousand weeds. Better yet, use your brother’s friends that are invited to his birthday party. • If you want to make millions selling eggs, be sure you have a big dog to keep those “stinkin’ coyotes” away from your chickens.
The folks at the Turtle Valley Donkey Refuge are pleased to announce that the new farm is ready for the donkeys and they will be moving 50 donkeys over to their new forever home on Thursday, September 4th starting at 1:30 p.m.
• If you take your kids fishing be sure to enjoy the few minutes you actually get to fish. The rest of the time you’ll be untangling fishing lines or wading into creeks to rescue hooks. It’s almost like kids think hooks grow on trees! • Kids love camping. The more scrapes, scars and mosquito bites the better. • The next time I go camping I need to bring Duma the Cat because inevitably we’ll pitch our tent on a mouse nest. • There’s always a better mouse trap! The tough thing is convincing everyone to pay the high per mouse royalty you want to charge. It looks like the Junior Bean Counter better do a little more

The new farm is located just down the road from their previous location. In just four months, they have successfully built a new barn for the donkeys with donated funds received from all over Canada. Their donors understood the great need for expansion of the donkey refuge, and they wanted to help with the development of a farm that was owned by the charity, and which would provide a secure home
for the donkeys long in to the future. They will be hosting a pancake breakfast at the new farm on Sunday September 7th from 10:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m. for anyone who is interested in stopping by and seeing the donkeys in the new home. Come by 7877 Skimikin Road for a great breakfast and some donkey company! For more information, contact Shirley Mainprize at 250-679-2778.

market research before he kicks production of his mouse trap into high gear. • Kids are not too keen on sleeping end to end in a single bed; so be sure to double check your reservation before leaving on vacation. And like in years past, the most important thing I learned from my kids this summer is be flexible, keep smiling and enjoy the time together. It won’t be long before I’ll be missing the days of mosquito bites, mice, coyotes and creative weeding. Even if it costs me a fortune in fish hooks, it’s all worth it!

A surprise celebration
Over 70 people were in on the secret for over a year and no one told. By necessity, this included conspiracy, deception, unauthorized borrowing, subterfuge, and sometimes outright lies; but in the end, everyone was rewarded by the looks on the faces of Steve and Marg McInnis when they walked into the room, stunned beyond belief at their surprise 50th wedding anniversary party. The event was spearheaded by their daughters, Debbie McInnisAssu and Karen Anderson, and a few friends played pivotal roles in the planning. With the Prestige Harbourfront Resort banquet room booked they enlisted the help of Paul and Eleanor Shannon. “We asked them to get together a list of friends from the Legion and the seniors’ centre. We started with that and we started ‘steal-

She was baffled. When the big night came, Paul drove to their house and simply told them to drive behind him. “Paul sped a little ahead of us.” When he got there he jumped out quickly. She found out later he realized the sign was outside telling the guests where to go, so he turned it around. When they got to the banquet room door, Paul stepped in front of them and announced: “Mr. and Mrs. McInnis” Marg thought he was hamming it up a little. “We walked in and we got the surprise of our lives – it was all people I know, all my family. It was really amazing,” says Marg. “We walked through the door and everyone started cheering,” says Steve. “At first we didn’t know what it was all about.”
ing’ photo albums,” says Debbie laughing. “Which I noticed,” adds Steve. “I never thought anything of it,” says Marg, referring to the missing albums. Karen often liked looking at the photos, she explains. “I thought ‘She really wants to have a good look.’” The stolen photos were needed for the impressive slide show of their lives. From the beginning everyone was sworn to secrecy and it gained momentum. “Their friends were excited about keeping a secret,” Karen says. As both Karen and Debbie live in Alberta, the friends living in town were an invaluable asset. “We stored all the decorations at Wendy’s [O’Sullivan] house,” says Debbie. Some of the decorations were hand-made, like the fancy box for people to put cards in: “I spent a whole day making that,” Debbie adds. The invitations that had gone out earlier were made from Jack and Marg’s wedding photo. Invitations went to friends and family from all over BC and Alberta. The celebration was slated for Saturday, August 30, 5:30 p.m. at the Prestige. Those who came out a day early were careful not to be seen around town in case they ran into Marg and Steve. “I came out on Monday,” says Karen. “I left on Friday morning and I said I was going back to Red Deer, but I was going to the Prestige.” Getting Marg and Steve to the Prestige necessitated another ruse. “Eleanor told me that she had been at a silent auction and got tickets for four to a dinner and dance, and wouldn’t tell me where,” says Marg. “She said Steve had to be in a suit. I thought, ‘Where do they have a dinner and dance that you have to dress up for?’ It was really driving me crazy.” She combed the coming events sections in the newspapers but couldn’t find anything.
“I said, ‘Happy 50th,’ but I think you were too stunned,” says Karen. “Dad just kept shaking his head,” says Debbie, laughing. “I kept seeing people I hadn’t seen for a long time. I just couldn’t believe there were that many people there,” says Marg. Cont’d on next page

A surprise celebration continued She took that advice and said no. Then came another letter. “He said, ‘I really love you and I want you to come over and marry me.’” This time she said yes. Marg’s mother wasn’t too thrilled. “She said I hadn’t known him long enough. ‘How do you know he’s the right person?’ I remember what I said, ‘In my eyes he can do no wrong.’” As she says this Marg bursts into laughter. They were married in Germany in December (pictured at left, above). Their daughter, Karen, was born there, with a less-than-helpful drunk doctor. [The head matron ordered him to sit down and did the delivery herself]. During Steve’s career in the military, he was posted at various times in Germany and did three UN tours of duty: Egypt, Cyprus, and the Golan Heights. The family lived for a while in Calgary and moved to a few different places in Canada as Steve was stationed in Pembroke, Ontario; Penhold, Alberta; and North Bay, Ontario. Steve and Marg have travelled to Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. After 37 years of military service Steve retired. The question was: Where would they live? “Part of our family was on the west coast and our two daughters were in Alberta. We wanted to be in between and near water,” says Steve. “At the time my younger sister was living here and we came to look around,” adds Marg. They knew it was going to be some-

where between Sorrento and Sicamous. They landed in Canoe and have lived there since 1998. Right away they got involved in the local community. Steve has been active at the Legion and is currently the Service Officer. For 12 years he volunteered for Citizens on Patrol. They both are active members of the Canoe Seniors Centre where Marg is treasurer and Steve runs the bingos. He is also the VP of the Canoe Creek Estates Strata and has served as president. In the summertime they keep busy at the golf course and on the water. They both took up snowshoeing last winter. What’s the secret of 50 years of marriage? “Good communication, I think,” says Marg. “If something is bothering you don’t hold it in, let it out.” “And she does,” says Steve. Maybe the secret is also about simply enjoying each other’s company and always having a good laugh. Clearly Steve is a bit of jokester as he imparts his wisdom of staying married for half a century. “It’s hard enough to the train the first one; you don’t want to do another.”

Continued from previous page Their anniversary is actually in December. They had met earlier that same year, 1964. It was definitely not love at first sight. Steve was in the military and was visiting his parents on a weekend leave at the coast. Steve’s mother had multiple sclerosis and Marg was employed as her caregiver. “I had just made dinner and he came home for the weekend,” says Marg. “He sits down, looks at the food and says, ‘where’s the gravy?’ I said, ‘I never made any’ and he got up and left. I thought he was the rudest person I had ever met.” “Wet food, not dry food,” he says, smiling. So they didn’t hit it off too well, but Marg had become very good friends with his sister, Judy. “When he would come home the three of us went out. We went roller skating and bowling.” Pretty soon the threesome became a twosome, as Steve and Marg started seeing more of each other. Then he was posted to Germany. “Things cooled off and he was going to have fun with the German frauleins,” says Marg. “He was there 11 days and he wrote me a letter.” The letter contained a marriage proposal. He suggested she come to Germany and they could get married there. “I said to his sister, ‘He asked me to marry him.’ She said, ‘Don’t go, he’s just homesick.’”

CSRD news
Solid waste planning survey The Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) is conducting a review of its Regional Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP), last updated in 2009. The review will identify new initiatives for reduce, reuse, recycle and disposal programs for the next five years, as many of the 2009 recommendations have now been completed. A review of new opportunities and directions will be conducted to update the SWMP and to establish implementation priorities for the next five years. It is important to note that the process relies on input from residents, business and other stakeholders residing within member municipalities and rural areas alike. “An advisory committee representing a cross-section of region-wide public and technical interests was created to oversee the implementation of the 2009 plan,” says Ben Van Nostrand, Team LeaderEnvironmental Health Services, “and this committee will remain in place to develop and review all recommendations put forward during this new plan revision, and (most importantly) ensure public participation during this process.” The review will explore enhanced recycling opportunities, including food waste and other waste diversion initiatives, landfill and transfer station management, and public education. “Public participation is absolutely essential to the success of this transparent process,” stresses Van Nostrand. Please check the CSRD website at www.csrd.bc.ca for general information, as well as the opportunity to provide input regarding this planning process through completion of a survey. Those who complete the survey have the opportunity to be entered into a draw for the chance to win a $250 Visa gift card.
Trunk sale Looking to sell, trade or give away some of your unwanted or previously-loved stuff but can’t hold your own garage sale? Then you’ll want to take part in the first ever trunk sale being held at the Salmon Arm Okanagan College campus on Saturday, September 13th. Organized by the Columbia Shuswap Regional District’s Waste Reduction Program, the event champions the concept of reuse and recycle, with one giant garage sale in the Okanagan College parking lot. Carmen Fennell, Waste Reduction Facilitator with the Regional District, says “This is an opportunity for people who wouldn’t normally be able to host their own garage or yard sale, those that live in condos, apartments, or simply have no yard. But it’s also for people who only have a small number of garage sale items and don’t want to host their own sale; everyone’s welcome to take part.” There has been tremendous response to these sale events in other regional districts, so if you’re looking to be a vendor on sale day, you need to sign up early.

A fictitious male stripper troupe, played by a cast of some of Canada’s best improvisational comedians, performs a sexylarious improv comedy show. This stripper parody takes place Saturday, September 13, 8:00 p.m. at the SASCU Recreation Centre. Tickets are $35 each, or $30 for groups of six or more. They’re available at Wearabouts Clothing or online at http:// www.brownpapertickets. com/event/766190 These guys try to be sexy, and it just comes out funny. Constantly grooving and gyrating in between scenes, they banter with the crowd and perform their hilarious twist on improv sketches. They sing and they “dance.” These guys are oiled up and ready to make you laugh at them. Fresh off sold-out shows in Vegas, Australia and now Canada, and just in time for stagette season; gentlemen, not to worry, this is definitely a parody of male strippers. Some of the performers have what’s called ‘Comedy Bodies’ - they will make you look good by comparison. Semi-undressed and completely unscripted, The Comic Strippers take off their shirts and take on
your suggestions to create a whole new genre of comedy. No extreme nudity, just extreme hilarity, this is a show for all genders, 19+ only. The Comic Strippers stars the following: Roman Danylo: For five seasons, Roman starred on CTV’s Comedy Inc. As a stand-up comedian, he has appeared on Just For Laughs and The Debaters. Ken Lawson: Ken starred in the Canadian sitcom Health Nutz and has performed all over North America with The Vancouver TheatreSports League and The Second City. Chris Casillan: Chris is an improv comedy vet with Vancouver Theatre Sports and a Canadian Comedy Award winner with his sketch comedy group Canadian Content. Pearce Visser: Pearce is a 25-year veteran with the Vancouver TheatreSports League, an actor in film & TV, and performer in Cirque du Soleil’s talent pool. Michael Teigen: Long-time performer with The Vancouver TheatreSports League, Michael can also be seen in many films, TV shows and commercials.

Parkinson’s walk
Family, friends, neighbours and the local hockey team are teaming up to fight Parkinson’s. Their special power? Hope! Join your community heroes at Parkinson SuperWalk on Saturday, September 13th, at 10:00 a.m. at McGuire Lake Park. Participants can register by visiting www. parkinson.bc.ca. SuperWalk is the largest national fundraising event for Parkinson’s disease and this September, 110 communities across Canada and 21 communities throughout BC will join the fight to find a cure. In BC, our goal is to raise $425,000 and nationwide, the aim is to raise $3 million. At the heart of SuperWalk’s success in Salmon Arm is the generous spirit of local community members. Doreen Wilson, diagnosed with Parkinson’s eight years ago at age 72, has been the Walk organizer for the past five years. “We have such wonderful support here in Salmon Arm,” says Doreen. “One great example is the Sicamous Junior Eagles Hockey Team. They’ve been coming for a few years now. They help set up the event and push the patients in wheelchairs from the Bastion Place care facility. The boys make sure that everyone is able to participate. We all feel so good and hopeful at SuperWalk!” Proceeds from SuperWalk go to Parkinson’s research, education and support services provided by Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC).

Pre-season hunting with Red & Curly
Opening day for hunting for deer and grouse was but a few days away, and Red and Curly Swenson thought it best to open the season a bit early. They didn’t want all those nimrods with guns runnin’ around the bush scaring their deer! Loading up their old Chev pickup with gear, beer, and guns, they headed out of Kisterville for the Blue Ridge mountains, and a neat campsite at Zipperlip Lake, they had set up the season before. Once the boys set up camp, and after a brew or two, both decided to do a little scouting. Wasn’t long before they found a nice set of buck tracks leading up a trail to a spring. Trouble was, someone else had been there, and had a small pipe running from the spring to a location in the bush. As curiosity killed the cat, they say, the boys decided to follow the black plastic line. It led to a group of large tubs with those green, leafy plants. Whacky tabbacky! So much for hunting. They thought they’d pick a plant or two. But just then, they saw a trail cam high in a tree, a couple foot snares, spring-loaded, and just as they glanced over the plants, a guy in a camo outfit comin’ to check the large budding crop. The huntin’ trip was headed for the toilet. The boys deeked out of there at the high port, back to camp. Although Bones McGee, who owned the drug store, saw the guys leave town, he played poker with ol G. G. Lawson, the local game warden. Ol’ G. G. was beatin’ the pants off McGee with a couple good hands, and as the night progressed, and with a bit more moonshine, Bones spilled the beans, and mentioned that the Swenson boys had left town, to do a bit of pre-season huntin.’ Now, back at their camp, the boys had been raided by a large black bear who had gotten into their cooler. They found out he liked beer too, as their dozen 6-packs were punctured, and there the bear was sleepin’ it off under a tree! With a firing of rifles, the bear took off into the bush, but it also alerted ol’ G. G. Lawson, who was patrolling the area. The guys walked up a trail from camp, and found an elk wallow. Like bull moose, they paw the soft ground up, digging a hole in the wet earth. Then they urinate into it, trying to attract cows. Trouble was, there was a cantankerous ol’ 6x7 bull in the wallow, who took exception of them being there, so it got up and gave chase. With both boys high up in poplar trees, and the bull tearing up brush and grass at the base, they were hooped. That is, until ol’ G. G. heard the commotion. Firing his sidearm, he made the bull run off. G. G. had the last chuckle, as he took a few photos of the mighty hunters. After lecturing both on the virtues of stickin’ to the rules, he though they had been taught a good lesson, and left with that mean ol’ bull still crashin’ through the bush, knocking over the whacky tabbacky plants on the way through!
shuswapoutdoors by Hank Shelley Here and there in the Shuswap Although not an official forecast for opening of the 2014 hunting season, I have gleaned information from several sources, including the 2013 information, plus what l’ve seen while in the bush. Also the snowshoe hare (brown bunnies) season is on ‘til April, with a real high cycle! Limit is 10. MU-3-26: Grouse are still low on their cycle, and in spotty locations. Season opens Sept 10. Whitetail deer: High numbers, with good ratio of bucks to does. Find them in farm fields, low elevation bush lines, also corn fields, and wet grassy spots. Any buck can be taken starting Sept. 10. Youth accompanied by adult: Sept. 1-9, either sex. Mule deer: lots of bucks are around. 4 point only Sept. 10-30.Youth: Sept. 1-9, bucks only. Check out old logging roads, and high alpine areas like Hunter’s Range, Fly Hills, and the Falkland-Pinaus area. Black bear season opens Sept. 10. Allowed two in regions 3-26 to 3-44. There are lots of bears around. Check corn fields (talk to farmers for permission), old apple orchards, and low elevation logging roads while hunting deer. Bear season goes ‘til Nov. 30. Moose: Spike fork bulls only, as there has been a major decline in moose population due to wolf predation, First Nations communal harvest, and other factors such as hunting pressure due to easier access on larger cut blocks than ever before. Region 3-26, Nov.1–Nov.15 only. MU-3-34 to 3-44, 3-46, opens Sept. 20 and goes until Oct. 3l. Canada geese: As always, there’s a large population for 3-26. Goose season runs Sept 10-20. It closes, then opens again Oct. 1 and goes until Dec. 23, with an allowance of 10 birds a day. Many folks are not accustomed to goose. Most hunters breast the birds. Done in a slow cooker for the day, with vegetables, the meat can be very tender, and the ‘goosey’ flavour is minimized this way. Numbers of breasts can also be ground into goose patty or made into a delightful sausage at the butcher’s. Remember, hunting is a privilege that many of us have enjoyed for countless seasons. It can be taken away. With diminishing resources, and few conservation officers, we should all step in to protect all wildlife, even that which we are not allocated to hunt. Hunting provides countless hours of pleasure, and millions of dollars to the economy, so starting September 10, get out and enjoy, and have your cell phone handy to report violations.
Dragon boat survivor teams receive grants
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
Friday, September 5, 2014 Lakeshore News A15
In an effort to encourage breast cancer survivors to live healthy and active lives, the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation - BC/ Yukon Region (CBCF) is proud to award a total of $58,000 to 24 survivor dragon boat teams across the province. The dragon boat granting program began in 1997, when the BC/ Yukon Region of CBCF was presented with a unique opportunity to encourage physical activity and
camaraderie among breast cancer survivors, as a result of groundbreaking research showing positive results from dragon boat activity. This has evolved into an annual CBCF grant, which awards a number of breast cancer survivor dragon boat teams in local communities throughout the region. To complement their passion for paddling, breast cancer survivor dragon boat teams proudly join forces with CBCF to share valu-
able breast health information by acting as ambassadors in their local communities. The Breast Health on the Go program provides them with a breast health toolkit containing information and hand-outs to use at fairs, festivals and other community events. These breast health ambassadors are working hard to deliver important health information in this pilot project. And, of course, who could be better ambassadors for the cause than breast cancer survivors themselves! Among the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation BC/Yukon Region 2014 dragon boat grant recipients are, locally, Buoyant Buddies (Vernon), Bust’N Loose (Kelowna), Friends Abreast (Shuswap), Pink Piston Paddlers (Shuswap, pictured), and Spirit Warriors (Kamloops). The dragon boat movement for breast cancer survivors began as the result of a funded grant led by Dr. Don McKenzie, Professor of Sports Medicine at the University of British Columbia. Twenty-four women, all with a history of breast cancer, volunteered for Dr. McKenzie’s research project and began training as dragon boaters. At the conclusion of the study, he

found that despite rigorous repetitive upperbody exercise, which dragon boating required, no new cases of lymphedema occurred and none of the existing cases progressed. In addition, the women who participated found they were fitter, healthier and happier. They loved the camaraderie and support of their fellow paddlers and had regained control of their lives.
From this initial project in Vancouver, an international movement of breast cancer survivor dragon boat teams has evolved. The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation is the leading community-driven organization in Canada dedicated to creating a future without breast cancer. Visit their site at www.cbcf.org.

COMMUNITY CALENDAR
DISTRICT OF SICAMOUS
Public Notice Under Section 227 of the Community Charter TAKE NOTICE THAT the Council of the District of Sicamous will be considering Revitalization Tax Exemption Bylaw No. 862, 2013 Amending Bylaw No. 882, 2014 for the following reasons and objectives: Purpose of the Bylaw and Amending Bylaw The original intent of Bylaw 862, 2013 remains unchanged; this amending Bylaw is to provide additional clarification to the Assessor. Council wishes to establish a Revitalization Tax Exemption Program in the downtown commercial area of the District to assist businesses that are listed in the Revitalization Area defined in the Bylaw and were severely affected by flood damage to the District’s water system in 2012 to purchase private water filtration systems. The Amending Bylaw is providing additional information to the assessor to achieve the same objectives as the original Bylaw. Reasons for the Revitalization Tax Exemption Program The extreme flooding that occurred in the District in 2012 damaged the District’s water system. The damage prevented the District from being able to continue to supply commercial water users in the District who require high volumes of water with an adequate, suitable and reliable supply of municipal water until such time as the District is able to update its water treatment plant, estimated to take two years or more to complete. The economic and social well being of the District is enhanced by a viable commercial and retail sector that continues to supply the basic and necessary goods and services, as well as a variety of other goods and services, to the District’s resident population, tourists and visitors and other District businesses. The economic health of that sector and, therefore, the well being of the resident and visiting populations, would be adversely affected by closures of businesses in that sector, forcing persons and businesses in Sicamous to purchase their goods and services in other municipalities. The closure of those businesses may adversely affect other businesses in the District, causing them to close as well. The water users who are dependent on their water supply for the continuation of their businesses, may be unable to recover from the adverse impacts of the loss of the water supply they require and unable to afford the cost of installing private water filtration systems. Rather than see these businesses close or relocate to other municipalities and be lost to the District, Council deems it necessary and in the best interests of the District to offer them tax exemptions under section 226 of the Community Charter. Objectives of the Revitalization Tax Exemption Program Council’s objectives for the Revitalization Tax Exemption Program are to secure the future economic and social health of the District by offering tax relief to the owners and occupiers of those commercial properties in the Revitalization Area (high volume commercial water users) who were adversely affected by the long term loss of an adequate, suitable and reliable supply of municipal water as a result of flood damage to the municipal water system in 2012; Accomplishing the Objectives The Objectives of the Revitalization Tax Exemption Program would be accomplished by (1) assisting the high volume commercial water users with the cost of installing water filtration systems on their premises to provide water suitable for their business operations until such time the municipal water service is upgraded, operational and able to supply them with an adequate, suitable and reliable supply of municipal water; and (2) thereby enabling the existing high volume commercial water users to keep their businesses financially viable; to preserve the jobs they provide in their businesses and indirectly in other businesses in the District; and to continue providing goods and services to the inhabitants of the District as well as visitors and tourists to the District, rather than having their customers purchase their goods and services outside of the District; Eligible Properties To be eligible for the tax exemption, an applicant must (1) own a Parcel or operate a business assessed for taxation on one or more of the of the commercial properties (Parcels) listed in the Table at the end of this notice, and (2) have installed a water filtration system on the Parcel before October 1, 2013. Maximum Term of the Tax Exemption The tax exemption will be provided for a maximum term of 5 years beginning with the calendar year 2014 and not available after the year 2018, with the amending Bylaw having a remaining term of 4 years. Amount of the Tax Exemption The annual tax exemption proposed for each property is $1,200.00, and therefore a reduction in the annual assessed value of the Parcel of $11,250. Extent of the Tax Exemption The extent of the Tax Exemption is $6,000 if claimed for the Maximum Term of 5 years. The exemption is applied only to the general municipal tax portion of the municipal tax bill and not to taxes that must be collected by the District for other taxing authorities. Date of Council Meeting Council will consider the adoption of the Amending Bylaw at its Regular Council Meeting on September 10th, 2014 at 5:00 p.m. in the District of Sicamous Council Chambers at the address below. Interested persons are welcome to attend. Information A complete copy of the bylaw is available at the District of Sicamous Municipal Office, 446 Main Street, Sicamous, BC. For more information, please call Kelly Bennett, Chief Financial Officer, 250-836-2477. SCHEDULE “A” Revitalization Tax Exemption Bylaw No. 862, 2013 Amending Bylaw No. 882, 2014.

Nicol (Nick) Ashforth Watkins 1939 - 2014
Nicol (Nick) Ashforth Watkins, who has died at age 75 in Vernon BC, was a Renaissance man. He spent his working life as a teacher and administrator. He was passionate about public education, feeling that a country was only as good as the education of its young. After retirement, he spent 15 years as director and president of the Caravan Farm Theatre. He supported and worked for the development of the Haugen Medical Group. He attended the Okanagan Symphony for 25 years, loved opera, jazz, and other music. He was an avid runner, played cricket, soccer, rugby, and golf. He enjoyed skiing and hiking, especially in the Rocky Mountains. When not engaged in the above pursuits, he loved to discuss politics and philosophy. He was a lifelong supporter of the NDP and believed in private enterprise with a social conscience. Retirement gave Nick and Dagmar the opportunity to discover many parts of the world. Nick was born in London, England to Frank and Dorothy Watkins. He is survived by his sister Judith Newman and her family, and by the Family Rippitsch in Austria. He married in 1964, Hannelore Dagmar Watkins and they have one son, Brendan and daughter–in-law, Cheryl. Nick will be lovingly remembered by his family as well as friends and colleagues. A Celebration of Life will be held at Armstrong Bible Chapel (2145 Rosedale Ave, Armstrong, BC) on Saturday, September 6, 2014 at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Canadian Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (47 Squire Bakers Lane, Markham, ON L3P 3G8). Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.MyAlternatives.ca Cremation arrangements entrusted to ALTERNATIVES FUNERAL & CREMATION SERVICES® Armstrong 250-546-7237 & Vernon 250-558-0866

THE TERRY FOX RUN FOR CANCER RESEARCH
The Terry Fox Run A single dream. A world of hope.
Sunday, September 14, 2014. Registration 9-10am at Blackburn Park. 2 km, 4 km & 10 km - Walk, Bike, Run, Bring your Dog on a leash. Terry Fox was raised in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia. An active teenager involved in many sports, Terry was only 18 years old when he was diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma (bone cancer) and forced to have his right leg amputated above the knee in 1977. While in hospital, Terry was so overcome by the suffering of other cancer patients, many of them young children, that he decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research.
Seventy-seven Shuswap seniors will be participating in fourteen different sports and activities at the BC Senior’s Games in Langley next week. For those of you attending, remember to check www.bcseniorsgames.org to determine whether your first event is on Wednesday, Sept. 10 or Thursday, Sept. 11. If your start date is Wednesday, you must pick up your accreditation package on Tuesday between 4:00 and 9:00 p.m. If your start date is Thursday, pick up your accreditation package on Tuesday, 4:00 to 9:00 p.m. or Wednesday, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Langley Events Centre, 7888-200 St. If you haven’t registered the day before your first event you will be considered a ‘no show’ and not allowed to compete. Your accreditation badge is your ticket to enjoy the entertainment Thursday evening and the banquet and dance on Friday. Don’t miss out! Participants are encouraged to attend the Zone 8 meeting on Sept. 18 at the Chief Louis Center, Tk’emlups Indian Band, Shuswap Road (Kamloops) at 10 a.m. to celebrate those who won medals and those who did their best participating and cheering on their comrades. Wear your medals with pride! Hellen Byron, Salmon Arm coordinator for the BC Seniors’ Games
He would call his journey the “Marathon of Hope”. The people who look for the possibilities in an impossible task often make the difference, and Terry Fox was one of those people. This year marks the 34th annual Terry Fox Run and volunteers are needed to help organize and execute the Run in the Salmon Arm community. Volunteers are needed for various Run day duties for this meaningful cause, as the Run is fast approaching. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer for the Terry Fox Run in Salmon Arm, please contact Cliff and Fran Evans by email at evafc@shaw.ca or by phone at 250-804-0376. The Runs are non-competitive and all inclusive; the registration fee is by donation and there is no minimum pledge amount. For more information about The Terry Fox Run Foundation, visit www.terryfox.org or bcyukon@terryfoxrun.org As a volunteer or as a Run participant, join us on September 14th in the fight to find a cure. “It took cancer to realize that being self-centered is not the way to live. The answer is to try and help others.”

CAPRICORN
The friends you thought you could count on turn out to be the real deal, Capricorn. Just see what they have in store for you this week. You will be so surprised.
AQUARIUS
It is okay to have strong opinions, Aquarius. But respect the opinions of others who may disagree with your point of view. Learn how to walk away from pointless situations.
PISCES
There’s more to the story than meets the eye, Pisces. Quick judgement may land you in hot water. Wait for the dust to settle.
ARIES
Aries, take the high road when you find yourself in the midst of a disagreement with a friend. It may be tempting to stick to your guns, but the disagreement is nothing too significant.
TAURUS
Much is going on, Taurus, and you have trouble zeroing in on a focal point. Unless you make a list of all you want to accomplish, you may get lost in the shuffle.
GEMINI
You sometimes change your moods on a whim, Gemini. But lately you have been more steadfast in your convictions. This behavior will continue for some time.
CANCER
Don’t make any rash moves in the next few days, Cancer. For whatever reason your common sense meter is a little off. You may want to run ideas past a trusted friend for a while.
LEO
Leo, unless you try you will never be able to tell if something is within your capabilities. Do not be afraid to fail. It’s better than putting in no effort at all.
VIRGO
Virgo, you’re wearing your heart on your sleeve this week. Don’t worry, as your willingness to share your emotions will endear you to others.
