Located at 611 Broadway, the Kinsmen Building is flanked by the post office and the former Nakusp Music Festival/Emergency Services building, now Waterbridge Fer-
ries Inc. Built in the 1960s, it was donated to the Village of Nakusp in 1969 for use as a health facility with a 40-year contract in place. Then in 2009, the village started to collect rent from its tenants. Five years later, at the beginning of 2014, primary tenant
Interior Health ultimately gave notice and chose to relocate its public health nurse unit to the Arrow Lakes hospital. This left the ultra-part-time Nakusp Options for Sexual Health (OPT) as the only tenant. Their use was minimal: only two evenings a month.
The OPT clinic had been able to piggyback on the IHA’s tenancy and was not being charged rent for their use. With the nurse unit gone, this left huge concerns for the volunteer-run clinic which provides free disease screening,

I miss learning and hanging out with friends and keeping up with daily news. My favourite subjects are P.E. and math.
There’s not a lot of learning to be done. So I am biking around, playing video games. I miss being able to see friends at school, and yes learning to a point. I play soccer and we’re holding provincials here this year so I really hope I get to do that.
Mainly just walking around town, and we have more chances to party. If school was back in, we wouldn’t be partying all the time. I really miss being able to play volleyball, which normally starts at the beginning of the year. I was captain of the team at my old school on the island.
Council Meeting Highlights Waterfront Walkwalk Lighting Project Mayumi and Kees van der Pol presented a slide show to council regarding the next phase in the Rotary Club’s proposal to install lighting along the Nakusp waterfront walkway which would then be turned over to the village. Mrs. van der Pol explained that the lighting would be subtle and tastefully done and that the electricity used would cost only $15 to$20 for an entire year based on the low amperage draw of LED lights. She took questions and thanked the council
for their time. Council voted to create a letter of support in principle, after which the Rotary will put the wheels in motion to obtain the funding required.
fest, the Nakusp and Area Youth Society and others are forming a group to combine available funding and purchase it outright from the village.
Group of Nonprofits Proposed Purchase of Kinsmen Building Three members (Janis Neufeld, Cassia Parent and Marie Wrede) of the steering committee representing two of the organizations involved presented their ideas to council surrounding the purchase of the building located at 611 Broadway Ave. Options for Sexual Health, Suffer-

Concerns Regarding Renewal of Library Building Lease As the Village moves to standardize land use agreements, the terminology changes from a
lease to a license to occupy which has caused some confusion with the management at the library. The Mayor, CAO and council agreed that the village needs to maintain a standard policy on all agreements and would work with the library group to the best interest of all involved. The Councillors delivered committee reports on everything from swim classes to ferry wait times and finished the meeting by discussing conference theme ideas for the AKBLG which is being hosted by the Village of Nakusp in January.

Reminding you to Recycle!
Halfway reopens to the public Trisha Shanks Arrow Lakes News
Local volunteers gathered at the recreational, public hot springs 26 kilometres north of Nakusp Thursday tasked with the cleanup of record amounts of garbage at the popular back road natural pools. They spent the day clearing refuse from overuse and abuse this summer. “It was a very busy and productive day,” said Kootenay Boundary Forest District Recreation Officer Justin Dexter
I really want to thank the volunteers for their help,” Dexter added. The site, which is free and open year-round to the public is only as good as the care its users take to keep things clean. Dexter says continual access is dependent on the quality of the upkeep. When complaints come in regarding dumping and disrepair, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations is responsible for assessment and ultimately decides the future of the site and public access to it.
who had been forced to close access to the natural hot springs citing public health concerns in late August. Reasons for temporary closure included an abandoned vehicle, outhouse damage and extreme amounts of garbage. Thursday saw all of the issues rectified in a joint effort between the recreation department, Compliance and Enforcement and local members of the community, without which Dexter says the task could not have been completed. “The site is now open again.

assistance with birth control, sexual health education/counseling and many other related services available to the general public. Preferring not to move, and not in a position to take on the monthly rent and operations of the building, OPT volunteers went to village council for suggestions. The result of this was that OPT volunteers were asked to come up with a business plan in order to be able to stay put. This ignited the idea to attract partners for the creation of a collaborative, multi-use facility in order to stay in the location that they have occupied for more than 16 years. The Village Council meeting on Monday September 8 saw Cas-
sia Parent, Janis Neufeld and Marie Wrede bring forward a unique suggestion. Representing the Nakusp and Area Youth Society and Sufferfest, they shared their proposal: a plan to purchase the building from the village using grant money. Additional organizations on board include the Arrow Lakes Arts Council, Options for Sexual Health, Freedom Quest, the North Kootenay Sports and Recreation Council and others. They call themselves the Kinship Connections Steering Committee. “It’s a really exciting thing for all of us to be collaborating on this. It’s very progressive,” said Janis Neufeld who is the Event Director for Sufferfest, the organization who will be the primary owner and have its name on the title.

Director of Hot Springs Operations Temporary The Village of Nakusp is looking for an individual with strong management and organizational skills to oversee the management, organization and marketing of the Hot Springs. The Hot Springs have undergone significant change over the past year with the acquisition of the Cedar Chalets, the construction of the Kuskanax Creek bridge, and the development a new website (in progress) which will provide the opportunity for improved customer service. Assistance is required to integrate operations and ensure that we have successfully adapted to these changes. This temporary management position will report directly to the Chief Administrative Officer and will be responsible for managing Hot Springs staff (Hot Springs Manager, Chalet Maintenance Manager, Caretaker), implementing systems to improve operations (reservations systems, communication systems, etc), and for fully integrating the Cedar Chalets operations with the Hot Springs. The position will also be responsible for marketing initiatives at the Hot Springs and exploring new opportunities. It is expected that this position will be a four to six month term. We are looking for an enthusiastic, organized individual with strong management background. Experience in resort/tourism management would be an asset. Successful candidate must have strong computer skills and be adept at problem solving. For more information, contact Linda Tynan, CAO at 250-265-3689. Interested applicants should submit their resume and cover letter by Friday, September 19, 2014. Applications may be emailed, mailed or dropped off in person at the Village office.

Able to access multiple grants from different sectors, the ladies behind this project believe that they can obtain enough funding for the purchase. They are excited about a combined effort to secure space for now and the future. Being non-profit is tough these days. Finding affordable office and meeting space can be a challenge. A broadminded, co-operative effort such as this could be win-win for all involved.

“We’ve gotten really good support so far. It could happen pretty quickly,” added Neufeld. “CBT (Columbia Basin Trust) deadline (for grant money) is November.” CBT is one of the project’s biggest supporters and potentially a source of the grant money that will be responsible for funding the purchase. Linda Tynan, CAO was not available for comment although the village has had the building for sale in the past.

Editorial Our View
34-year-old tradition
Terry Fox Run Sunday marked a 34-year-old tradition which has seen people across the country taking steps towards Terry Fox’s dream. “Even if I don’t finish, we need others to continue,” said Fox, who started his Marathon of Hope in April 1980 but by September had stopped running as his cancer had spread to his lungs. “It’s got to keep going without me.” The strides Fox made, artificial leg and all, have been an inspiration. And his country has carried on his efforts to raise funds for cancer research. All across Canada, B.C. and the Kootenays, local residents did their part by running, walking and/or making a donation on Sunday. Terry’s efforts will also be aided and celebrated by millions of students and educators on the National School Run Day, September 24. But with the current labour dispute showing no end in sight, that may not take place in B.C.. It’s unfortunate considering the thousands of dollars young children raise for the cause by collecting pledges for their run. It will also mean many children (particularly the younger ones) will not have the opportunity to learn about what Terry Fox did, since the schools have for decades done an exceptional job of incorporating him into lesson plans. The good news is that some students and teachers still made a difference by participating in several of the events held throughout B.C.. And hopefully the lessons about Fox will continue in the schools soon enough. Fox died in June 1981, but his legacy must live on forever.

Seniors’ Column MARILYN BOXWELL Seniors’ column
Locally, a variety of well-organized recreational, educational and leisuretime opportunities have been made available to seniors and others, who take seriously the message that adopting the credo of “active living” is rewarded by an increased sense of personal well-being and higher quality of life. The fact is, numerous cultural, historical and arts groups as well as individuals benefit significantly owing to the well designed displays, inspirational venues and the superb instructional offerings made possible to most of us through such resources as Selkirk College, Arrow Lakes Arts Council, public libraries located throughout the region, private galleries and of course our area museums and archived collections.

throughout the year. Also within our reach are widely ranging individual or group activities which highlight the beauty of our natural surroundings as well as enviable public facilities such as Nakusp Hot Springs, the sports arena and auditorium, community beaches, walking trails, parks and so much more. Just under three years ago, a small and friendly group of individuals drawn toward actively promoting various types of traditional fibre arts formed on an informal basis. It didn’t take long to discover a realm of hidden talents amongst those who share a common interest in working with natural fibres primarily. At one of our early organizational meetings, we agreed to name ourselves the “Nakuspinners.” Since then, various fibre-related workshops have taken place, teaching participants how to identify and then hand-spin, felt and hand-dye a colourful riot of creative yarns used to knit, crochet and weave items which are one-of-a-kind as person-

al wear or items for the home or as gifts. Thanks to the generous donors who have donated an abundant supply of sheep’s fleece, alpaca, mohair and fibre blends, as well as the associated equipment needed to produce our creative wonders, Nakuspinners continues to share and inspire others . There is something magical about learning the joys of creativity. One feels uplifted through the creative application of natural or blended fibres used when producing our craftworks, whether at home or during a meeting with friends who are ready to learn to skillfully exercise new techniques using inexpensive and easily located materials. Local crafter Christine Mayer invites all interested persons to contact her for more information concerning future get-togethers, times and locations as well as the availability of loaned out yarn-making spindles, spinning wheels, inexpensive local fibres, looms and more.

Clark’s Nutcracker.

In the last week of August, I made a trip to Idaho Peak. The 12 kilometre road from the town of Sandon to the parking lot is much improved since the last time I drove up a few years ago! There are a number of bird species that favour high elevations and are not often seen down in the valleys. While the views from the summit are spectacular, there is limited alpine habitat on the narrow ridge leading to the lookout point. Along the two kilometre walk to the summit we encountered just twelve species. All of these were forest species and not those normally associated with high alpine meadows. One of the birds we saw was the Clark’s Nutcracker. This species is in the family Corvidae, the same family as crows, ravens and jays. Clark’s Nutcrackers have a fairly specialized diet; they feed largely on the seeds of large pine cones. In our region, only the whitebark pine can provide suitable cones, and this tree is largely restricted to high elevations. In other parts of the province, ponderosa pine provides suitable food for nutcrackers at much lower elevations. The relationship between Clark’s Nutcrackers and whitebark pine is an interesting one; they rely on each other. The pine produces most of the nutcracker's food, while the nutcracker is the major seed disperser for the pine. Each nutcracker is said to store 50,000 seeds each year. Seeds are cached in shallow soil or gravel and later retrieved during times of food shortage or when feeding young. Those seeds not retrieved may become the next generation of trees. Consequently, whitebark pine often grows in clumps originating from a cache of seeds. A few of the other species we saw on the walk do show a preference for higher forests but are not considered to be alpine species. These include the Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Townsend’s Solitaire and American Three-toed Woodpecker. Another easily accessible high elevation destination in our valley is Mt Scaia, west of Edgewood. A 20 kilometre logging road (quite rough in places) provides access to large expanses of rolling alpine meadow. I have walked these meadows many times in the past and if you time it right the alpine flowers are quite spectacular. There are several species which breed in the high meadows or in the widely scattered trees, but normally do not breed in the valleys below. These include the Golden Eagle, Prairie Falcon, White-crowned and Fox Sparrows, Hermit Thrush, American Pipit and Horned Lark. I will be offering my introductory bird course again this year, through Selkirk College. The first class is Monday, September 22. Contact the college for more information and to register.

Retired teacher Darryl Smolik took to the popular Facebook page
for Nakusp, the Nakusp Communicator on September 6 writing, “I’m a grandmother of four public school children. I will be walking the picket line Tuesday, September 9. If you support public education, why not join me?” She then made a stack of red apples out of felt for those who attended to wear as a
show of support. A number of Nakusp students and parents showed up throughout the day to rally with the teachers who have been picketing since the last week of August. Lucy Ponto, whose mother is a Teacher on Call (formerly substitute teacher) came along because she wants to be back in the classroom
with her friends. Smolik was there, wearing a sign of her own which read “I support our teachers” accompanied by a large, red apple. “I am a retired teacher, I have four grandchildren and I want them to graduate,” she said as to why it was important for her to be there on the picket line.

Progress report on the FWCP in Arrow Lakes Trisha Shanks Arrow Lakes News
The Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP) in the Columbia region is a partnership between BC Hydro, the Province of B.C., First Nations and public stakeholders whose main purpose is to conserve and enhance fish and wildlife impacted by the construction of BC Hydro dams. The National Resource Professionals
(NRP) started in 1999 to replace nutrients that would otherwise into the reservoir but are trapped upstream by dams. The nutrient additions are intended to support the food chain, starting with micro-organisms, and lead up to kokanee and piscivorous (fish eating) bull and rainbow trout. However, managing the NRP can be a challenging prospect. That management falls to the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations (FLNRO), which is also responsible for setting fishery objectives and managing freshwater fisheries across the province. To support the Arrow Lakes Reservoir fishery, the FWCP provides funding for both the NRP and the Hill Creek Spawning Channel (HCSC). The FWCP funds approximately 75 per cent of the annual cost of the NRP in Arrow Lakes Reservoir while Columbia Power Corporation provides the remaining 25 per cent. In the years following the start of the NRP,
angling results for larger rainbow trout, bull trout and kokanee biomass has increased compared to the pre-nutrient addition period. However, angling results in more recent years have been relatively poor. The challenge is that the Arrow Lakes Reservoir is a huge and complex system, with many variables and large volumes of water flowing through it. “Ensuring optimal uptake of nutrients will continue to be a challenge,” said FLNRO fisheries biologist Marley Bassett, who coordinates the NRP in the Arrow Lakes Reservoir. While the NRP is believed to be improving the overall productivity of the entire reservoir food chain, productivity fluctuations and cycles can be seen in historical data. Ultimately, decisions regarding the program are made by the FLNRO — they are responsible for fisheries management objectives across the Province, including the Arrow Lakes Res-
ervoir. The FWCP does not set management objectives and does not manage the fisheries. There has been confusion over where the responsibility lies, said Trevor Oussoren, Program Manager, Fish & Wildlife Compensation Program – Columbia. “We work very closely with FLNRO and it is one of our program partners alongside BC Hydro, First Nations and public stakeholders. In fact we have a long-term agreement with FLNRO to deliver many of the fish and wildlife projects that we fund, including the Nutrient Restoration Program on the Arrow Lakes Reservoir.” The FWCP strives to conserve and enhance fish and wildlife impacted by the construction of BC Hydro dams. The Board, with local decision-making, works closely with a variety of partners to ensure that the funds received from BC Hydro are carefully allocated in order to maximize the benefits for fish and wildlife.

CONFERENCE COORDINATOR AKBLG CONFERENCE 2015 The Village of Nakusp is hosting the 2015 Association of Kootenay Boundary Local Governments (AKBLG) conference in April 2015. This annual conference is typically attended by over 200 elected officials, sponsors and other delegates are expected to attend. The Village of Nakusp is looking for a Conference Coordinator to assist in the organization of this event. This exciting opportunity exists for an enthusiastic, professional individual who is experienced in planning large events/conferences and who has the ability to anticipate project needs, prioritize, meet deadlines, and organize all phases of the event from pre-planning, organizing and monitoring. The Conference Coordinator will be the primary point of contact for the event.
Motorcycles filled the Nakusp Arena’s parking lot Monday.
GS What? Trisha Shanks Black Press
Did you see all those bikes on Tuesday morning? What was that all about? Was there another bike rally in town? Looked sick though. You might be just like me and have never heard of the international motorcycle contest, The GS Trophy enduro, but in the week leading up to this publication you may have noticed the GS Trophy logo around the village displayed on shirts or printed on hats worn by members of council or teachers. And then there were all of those motorcycles and trailers and buses parked outside of the Nakusp Arena on Monday afternoon; was it all a coincidence, or perhaps you missed something? Well, it just so happens that Nakusp played host to yet another international motorcycle event; the BMWsponsored GS Trophy enduro is a contest that involves 64 riders representing 16 different countries competing in a 1900kilometre ride through western Canada over the course of seven days with numerous special test sections. For most, the bridge of comprehension can be crossed by drawing on the pop culture reference, The Amazing Race, but the GS Trophy organizers undoubtedly want to distance themselves from that association. The GS Trophy enduro is not strictly a race in the sense that the teams are jockeying to
International motorcycle contest in Nakusp
cross the finish line at the end of every day, but is rather a comprehensive adventure that tests individual riding skill alongside teamwork through a variety of challenges both on and off the bike. Each team competes for points by completing tasks along the predetermined route, then closes out the day’s ride with a final challenge before the group eats, then bivouacs for the night. The twist? The riders don’t know what challenges wait for them on the road or at the end of each day. Each stop is filled with surprises governed by the unique character distilled from each location’s culture. Teams began their odyssey in Calgary and traveled a muddy route to Golden where they competed in the Golden 8 Test, which required each team member to ride a figure 8 at slow speeds, dropping a ball in a bucket with each pass. At 5 a.m., Monday morning, the group roused themselves out of their tents and hit the road, slipping and sliding their way along Donald logging road then traveling by paved highway to a 60 km logging road skirting the west side of the Arrow Lakes. Somewhere along the route the group had to complete a scavenger hunt through a recent cut block, seeking red plaques marked by GPS points. The group then made their way to Arrow Park Ferry where they crossed and
This will be a fixed price contract. Hours required are expected to begin at a minimum (eg approx. 4-6 hours per week until January) increasing weekly until the event when the coordinator will be expected on-site for the duration of the conference. Working with the Village of Nakusp, the coordinator will assist with all aspects of the conference including development of the sponsorship program, registrations, budgeting, development of speaker and entertainment programs, communications, layout, organization of venue, etc. We invite Expressions of Interest from individuals who are interested in this opportunity. Submissions should include an outline of proposed services offered, your previous experience in organizing large events, and expected remuneration. Interested individuals may contact Linda Tynan, CAO Village of Nakusp for more specific information. Submissions must be received at the Village office by September 18, 2014 at 4:00 pm and may be dropped off at the Village Office or made via mail, email or fax to: Village of Nakusp - Attn: Linda Tynan 91 - 1st St NW, PO Box 280, Nakusp, BC VOG 1RO Phone: 250-265-3689 Fax: 250-265-3788 Email: LTynan@nakusp.com

turned north towards Nakusp. Upon arrival, the entire crew unloaded their gear into the arena then engaged in a hard-nosed single elimination tournament of Broomball. The event was organized in partnership with Zac Wethal with support from the Nakusp Parks and Recreation staff. Local high school student Lindsay Cann contributed by reffing the Broomball tournament in front of a crowd of onlookers and camera crews. Previous to the start of the single elimination tournament, the enduro host asked the crowd of GS Trophy racers if any of them had ever seen or heard of Broomball before; only one hand went up. The game quickly jumped the language barrier and was soon mastered by some; teams from Germany, Russia, France and South Africa quickly adapted to the stick and ball dimensions of the game and fought a spirited battle to the semi-finals. In the end, the Germans won the final match against
The biggest names in the Forestry Industry recruit using LocalWork.ca
France with controlled passing and ability to slow the game down to a pace that allowed the Germans to exploit the over-eager French. After the tournament the exhausted teams dragged themselves into the auditorium to enjoy a dinner prepared by Deb Guest’s catering company then pitched their tents on the arena floor for the night. On Tuesday morning, it was another 5 a.m. start as the group headed off to Christina Lake and their next set of challenges. The GS Trophy is organized through BMW Motorrad International and is completing their fourth year of competition. The first competition was held in 2008 across Tunisia, Africa, with subsequent competitions held in South Africa and South America. Each rider in the enduro has been outfitted with a top of the line BMW R1200GS adventure bike equipped with all of the bells and whistles. Team progress can be monitored via the GS Trophy website.

of the lighting is subtle. If the lights are used a total of three hours per day, electricity will cost between $15 and $20 for an entire year.” This is based on the state of the art LED lighting. Once the sun goes down behind Saddleback Mountain and darkness falls, almost nobody is able to enjoy the paved section of waterfront which stretches from the Marina to the public beach due to complete darkness. Having lighting along this path could see more users enjoying it during the hours of darkness while it remains lit for three hours. This could provide cyclists, runners, families and others wishing to enjoy an evening stroll with the safety to do so yearround. Rotary’s local chap-
ter is keen to obtain the funds for installation and will gift the entire setup to the Village. However hydro, upgrades and maintenance would then become their responsibility. Council questioned van der Pol about the lower-seated lighting and how it would impact snow removal, as well as whether the addition of light would invite vandalism or graffiti to existing artwork and structures, citing that if they are in darkness, they are less likely to be defaced. She stated that she would get additional information from the providers and report back. The council voted in favour of the ongoing project in principle, awaiting further information and details.

The Arrow Lakes News reported back in July that the now dark paved waterfront walkway path might become more than just a daytime location. The local chapter of Rotary International invited the team from Artistic Lighting Design to visit Nakusp with a demonstration for the waterfront walkway in order to make it usable after sunset. Award- winning lighting experts Jordy Olsoff and Candace Weimer travelled to Nakusp from Kelowna to create an experience for stakeholders, media and interested parties to sample what might be possible here. The idea was to get a sense of what the walkway could look like, what it would cost
and how to maintain it once the lighting had been installed. United States-based President of Rotary International Gary Huang chose the theme, “Light Up Rotary” for 2014-15 and the local Nakusp chapter is taking this literally. Rotary members Mayumi van der Pol and her husband Kees were able to present their project idea to council on September 8 with support from other members in attendance. Van der Pol’s PowerPoint presentation included many slides of mock-ups for lighting along the stairs and the paved section of the walkway that is not currently lit by streetlights. Mayumi spoke to those in attendance, “We want this to be tastefully done, and all

• This Week in History • Answers for Last Weeks
September 26, 1924 Fifteenth annual fair is conceded to be most successful as there was a great increase in the number and quality of entries compared with previous years, despite the dry year. September 27, 1934 Nakusp has suffered a loss this week through the death of Mrs. Hilda Sophia Alpsen in her fifty-third year. She has been a resident for the past 10 years. September 28, 1944 A special meeting of the newly-formed Nakusp United Rural School District was held in the schoolhouse Friday with an attendance of 14. The purpose of the meeting was to vote on an additional $1100 to carry on the consolidated district. Total costs were estimated at $9,677 with credits for government assistance at $4,145 leaving $5,533
to be raised by the district. The district has already raised $4,875 leaving $658 to be raised plus $320 for a school nurse. September 23, 1954 The Interior Tug and Transport Co. is running a ferry service between Beaton and Robson. The first regular run was Saturday between Arrowhead and Beaton and Tuesday there was a run between Arrowhead and Nakusp. The run to Robson will not be undertaken until the proposed ferry-barge is completed, which is expected to be some time in November. A 32-passenger boat will be shipped in and used to transport passengers and a barge and tug will be used for cars. September 24, 1964 Jimmy Henke and Barry Johnson of Nakusp were chosen to attend the Pre-Olympic
trial at Vancouver. Barry placed first in men’s triple jump and third in the men’s broad jump. October 2, 1974 Collegues of the WestBoundary hospital field paid tribute to J.L. Irwin of New Denver who is retiring as administrator of the Slocan Community Hospital. September 26, 1984 Barricades will be placed at the top of Stevie’s Hill in Nakusp and traffic will be diverted through the Valhalla subdivision. At the regular council meeting in Nakusp on Monday, it was decided to proceed with a physical closure of the hill as the road continues to fall away and is causing a dangerous situation. September 21, 1994 On Thursday afternoon, Maxwell House was officially opened. The building is the new
home of Nakusp and District Community Services. It was named Maxwell House after the family who lived in the home for many years in Nakusp. Area H Director E. Nygren announced the disbursement of BC Hydro grant-in-aid funds for the district programs. September 22, 2014 An overturned DCT Chambers truck brought the woods to the road last Wednesday afternoon when its loads of lumber spilled from two flat bed trailers and blocked Hwy 6 south of Hills. The truck driver, a 40-year old resident of Mission, was transferred to Slocan Lake Medical Centre by ambulance. He was examined and treated for minor lacerations. A police investigation revealed the cause of the accident to be mechanical and no charges were laid.
