TRISHA SHANKS Arrow Lakes News
Going to bed with glow in the dark hands can be a hazard of the job when the job is crafting a haunted house display. Being unable to wash her hands well enough to remove the glowing paint residue on her skin is just one of the funny stories Betty Fahlman recounts as she leads this reporter on a tour of the locally-famous scary setup she puts on every year. Fahlman has designed and executed a frightful display of creative and macabre curios almost every October 31 since the 1980s. If anyone knows how to decorate for Halloween, it’s Betty
Fahlman. She and her family all pitch in to make ideas come to life using spiders, ghosts, pumpkins, black lights and skeletons in every size, shape and colour imaginable. Fahlman’s collection takes up several boxes when stored away, and she typically only gets a chance to display about two-thirds of it with each annual rendition. The Fahlmans have curated a massive collection of Halloween bits and bobs. Some of the items have been hand made by Betty and her grandchildren, some have been purchased and plenty have been donated by local friends and businesses such as Carson’s Corner and Overwaitea. “I’ve never had anything taken

or broken in more than 30 years. I think that says a lot about our community, or maybe they’re scared of the witch,” Fahlman laughs as she remembers being referred to as the Glenbank Witch at a meeting. The purpose of the haunted house is pure fun and entertainment. “It’s always been free and it always will be. It’s just supposed to be fun and not serious at all,” Fahlman explained when asked why it doesn’t collect revenue or donations for a cause. What makes her feel old is that she realizes many of the parents coming with their children were once the children who came to be spooked when they were the same age. This year, she speculates that around
70 children and 50 adults, mostly dressed in costumes, came through for the one-night-only fear fest. Fahlman loves the creative outlet it provides. “Building and designing it brings out the artist in me. Having to rethink it every year, it’s like I am reinventing the wheel.” She starts thinking about her design in September and begins putting things together during the third week of October to have things ready for October 31. She is starting to get help from her granddaughters, ages 11 and 8, who seem to carry on the same passion and excitement she has for the strange and curious while she also receives help from her husband and her grandson who help with the heavy lifting.

Council Highlights: October 27 TRISHA SHANKS Arrow Lakes News
Village staff provided a report on the cost of digital display driver-feedback speed signage and portable speed bumps along the busiest sections of Broadway and 8 Avenue. Emergency Services and the Department of Highways typically don’t like portable speed bumps so Councillor Joseph Hughes has requested a quote on permanent, concrete bumps instead. The council is pleased to fi-
and Hot Springs Road as long as a buffer of trees remains in place to maintain the overall rustic look and feel of the area. NACFOR legacy fund was adopted to allocate a certain amount of the dividends from the community forest proceeds to an ongoing cumulative trust which can be accessed if a large amount of funding is required for a large project. Some will still be allocated to smaller, community-based grants to assist non-profits with their special projects.
nally have Kate Tupper’s metal hockey-themed sculpture in place in its permanent home along the entrance wall of the Nakusp Arena. The village agreed to provide a letter of support to the new Burning Bright program, a concept that hopes to combine workplace experience and forestry jobs for youth in the area in cooperation with Work BC. Permit and zoning approval is in order for the storage facility going in at 1951 13 St, near the corner of Highway 23
Community forest profits disbursed to non-profit local recipients NACFOR Board of Directors and the village council have approved a total of $52,461.00 in grants from 2012 profits.

Our View
Election coverage Elections are both a boon and a curse to the newsroom. Whether you are writing for a big city daily or a community newspaper, election coverage is a double-edged sword. The question that must always be answered is how do you decipher what is legitimate news, community news or campaign propaganda? You also have to ensure you are treating every candidate as equal as possible. And the candidates, as well as their supporters, don’t make it easy. As part of the campaign, potential politicians are everywhere. Local meetings and events that may not normally attract a huge crowd, will see attendance double as candidates and their promotional teams mingle, network and push their platforms. Then there are the passive photo bomb attempts. Neutral coverage is a difficult task when everyone is either jumping into the photo op or wearing promotional buttons or carrying literature for a particular candidate. Add to that the letters to the editor which increase in frequency and contain underlying political messages. While not written by the candidates themselves, they are frequently sent by a supporter or campaign manager. For editors, it becomes a mine field of what should, and more importantly what shouldn’t, run. The real fear is will actual news events be missed due to an over infatuation with fairness? The fact is, incumbents have an advantage because, they are already in the public eye. Council meetings will still get covered because, simply enough, news is still news. Media will continue to cover newsworthy events, while trying to avoid unnecessary promotion. We remain neutral, but just as important, we remain news reporters.
Letters Policy The Arrow Lakes News welcomes letters to the editor intended for publication but reserves the right to edit for brevity, clarity, legality, accurracy and topicality. Letters should be typically in the range of 300 words in length. Anonmymous letters will not be published.

Seniors’ Column MARILYN BOXWELL Seniors' column
Many of our seniors have looked forward to participating in the choral group that meet for an hour every Wednesday at 11 a.m. at the seniors’ hall. The founder and extraordinarily talented pianist and enthusiastic leader were until recently, Shirley Garvey. Although now retired from the post, the admiration and appreciation of Shirley’s love and enthusiasm for music which many of us grew up with will always be recognized. For over ten years, Shirley has served to remind us by example, that simply getting together weekly to sing just for the fun of doing so, has played an important role in the lives of many of us. The seniors’ Sere-

naders choral group could also count on participating regularly for relaxed enjoyment, and also to take part in many special community events such as concerts and special presentations held at various local venues. The Serenaders’ presence has brought so much pleasure to older participants in particular, as well as audiences of every age. Thank you Shirley, for your unwavering dedication and generosity and for making time for everyone who, whether new to the community or not, was always made to feel welcome. In their desire to keep the ball rolling, the current choral group membership, which is open to everyone, welcomes Dawna Dinning as the new piano accompanist. Dawna is of course a familiar musical figure known throughout the area and has kindly agreed to lead The Seniors Singers which also meets on Wednesday mornings following the coffee Selina Birk Creative Support

hour which runs from 10 to 11 a.m.. As both Nakusp Seniors’ president Nancy Stewart and Dawna serve to remind us, those interested in joining any of the seniors’ activities are welcome. In our community, those aged 50 years and over are considered seniors and are encouraged to join forces with others in making new friends as well as exploring more about Nakusp and the numerous leisure time, theatrical, cultural and educational opportunities which exist right here at home. A good place to start gathering information is to drop by the seniors’ hall for coffee on Wednesdays from 10 to11 a.m. Plan to stay afterwards and enjoy a fun and informal round of old favorites with the Seniors Singers. Regardless of level of talent or type of musical interest, everyone is welcome. Each session is held from 11 a.m. to noon in the Seniors’ Centre’s log building located near the high school.

KNOW YOUR
CANDIDATES
The mayoral candidates speak out TRISHA SHANKS Arrow Lakes News
Approximately 75 people showed up to the All Candidates’ Debate held at the Arena Auditorium on Wednesday October 29. Despite the title, the only candidates in attendance were current mayor, Karen Hamling and Councillor Guy Duchaine, both running for Mayor. This is thanks to both the Public School Trustees and Village Councillor positions all being acclaimed (same number of candidates as positions.) The two running for mayor sat at a table on a low stage, which also held a podium for moderator Pat Dion. Both candidates cited improvements to the village hot springs and trails as a high priority and a factor in retaining and increasing tourism to the area. Duchaine said, ”Funding at the federal and provincial level is available to make the campground a little bigger, because it’s very profitable and we are investing in the A-frames to create upgrades.” Hamling stated that she sees improvements coming from a “Public/private partnership, and CBT can come to the plate on that too. We haven’t had nearly the investment that other communities have had from the CBT.” An audience member expressed concern about getting more families here, wanting the kids to stay here, teachers to be employed and
asked, “What are your plans to keep families here?” Hamling stated, “Council is “working with development board and the chamber to come up with a solution, but there is no magic bullet here. We will do the best for the community that we can.” Duchaine took the same question, “Creating work. If we don’t have it, kids aren’t going to stay here. Not going to be easy but it’s feasible.” Guy Duchaine divided his vision for the next four years into four specific categories: improvement to the hot springs, chalets, campground and the trails going to it; creating work for young adults to encourage them to stay in the village; increasing tourism by having events in and around the area; and providing improvements to the infrastructure for water and sewage. When asked why people should vote for him, Duchaine answered, “It is a time for change in leadership, and I can provide this change. A vote for me would also see a new face at the board of RDCK. New questions would be asked and new ideas introduced at the council.” Duchaine says a positive attitude is “paramount to success.” He believes that goals can be accomplished by doggedly following through with plans and working toward goals in spite of the obstacles. Current Mayor, Karen Hamling is concerned about economic diversity in Nakusp. Being able to progress
THE
towards once again having well-paying jobs and providing a good living for our young people and families while maintaining utmost support for our more senior residents is vital. She stressed the amount of advocacy she is involved in, promoting Nakusp and providing the building of the ferry as one of her best achievements to date while in office. Passionately committed to Nakusp, Hamling says, ”I feel very strongly that Nakusp is positioned to move forward economically over the next few years.” Hamling believes she deserves villagers votes because she has the experience, knowledge and energy to do the job well. During Hamling’s run, she also states Nakusp has had access to a lot of extra cash thanks to her efforts with the various councils bringing in just over $7 million dollars in grant funding to the community for upgrades to the infrastructure. “These grants for upgrades have provided many jobs in our community as well as saving the tax payer huge costs for needed infrastructure replacements,” she explained. A mere 43 per cent of eligible voters showed up at the polls in 2011, however everyone would like to see those numbers be much higher this year.

Less than half of eligible voters cast their vote in the 2011 municipal election. Of the local population, a mere 43 per cent let their voices be heard, and even less for the rural areas represented by the RDCK at 21 per cent. This is not a new phenomena. According to Elections Canada’s website, a decrease in votes being cast among eligible voters has been a recurring theme in Canada since 1988. Low numbers can signify a few different things: overall contentment, disenfranchisement or indifference. In countries where there is mandatory voting, participation numbers are very high at 95 per cent. The Nakusp & District Chamber of
Commerce has come up with a strategy to improve local participation in the election process. Incorporating Facebook, selfies, personal “I voted” posts, email signatures, websites and even printed signs, the Chamber is using a multi-faceted approach to generate top-of-mind awareness for the “Get out the vote” campaign. When asked why he thinks the numbers are so low, Nakusp Chamber of Commerce President Peter Welkerling speculated, “Complacency - they think ‘my vote doesn’t make a difference’, but every vote counts.” Using the marketing principal of the rule of seven, suggesting that a consumer must see the same marketing brand a minimum of seven times to commit it to memory, the Chamber could be onto something. If peo-
ple start posting the images and using the graphics on their email, social media and websites, this could catch on and remind people to show up and make their voice heard. In Nakusp, eligible voters will only be asked to choose the new mayor because all the council and school trustees are acclaimed, meaning that the exact number of prospective candidates fit the exact number of positions, therefore, there is no need to vote. Welkerling explains, “It would be nice to see an increase to 60 per cent from 43 per cent.” This would mean that over half of the eligible voters in the area would need to show up to the voting station on November 15 at the Nakusp Arena Auditorium. Voting takes place between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m..

Nakusp’s public art collection increases by one TRISHA SHANKS Arrow Lakes News
The Kate Tupper original was a collaboration between the Arrow Lakes Arts Council, Tupper, and the Village. It features an adult hockey player, a child and
three other figures, which could be seen as spectators, a ref, or even a coach. Professional welder Tupper was pleased to provide another installment of public art saying that even though it’s not her regular style, she has received a lot of great feed-
back about the work. “It brought art to an audience that usually doesn’t normally think about it,” she explained. “People who really love hockey were actually quite emotional about it and that was pretty neat to hear.”
Arrow Lakes Historical Society member passes away Bill Barrow passed away on Thursday the 30th of October at the age of 84. He was a long time member of the Arrow Lakes Historical Society and instrumental in obtaining interviews and photographs for his long time friend Milton Parent. He also insisted that Milton write a book about the tug-boaters of the Columbia River and the Arrow Lakes where Bill worked for several years. Bill explained in the book the dangers of the work and supplied many names of the men who worked in these dangerous waters hauling huge bundles of logs for the mill in Castlegar from above Revelstoke. Bill worked as a mate for John Finch and later and on the smaller tugs as a skipper because you didn’t need papers to be a skipper on the smaller tugs. He was the one who encouraged Milton and the Historical Society to help get funding to do trail work on Kuskanax Mountain up to Vicky’s View named for Bill’s wife who had passed away a few years earlier. From an early age, Bill played the drums in the Boys Bugle Band - he is shown in this photo with drums his parents bought

In Loving Memory of
WilliamRobert “Bill” Barrow It is with profound sadness to announce the passing our dear Dad, William Robert “Bill” Barrow on Thursday, October 30th, 2014 at St. James Cottage Hospice in Vancouver, BC. His optimistic attitude forged his courageous and unyielding desire to live during his lengthy struggle with cancer. Dad was born on April 22, 1930 in Nakusp, BC, the only son of Merril and Edith Barrow who predeceased him. He is also predeceased by his darling wife, Vicky (Obayashi) and sister Gay (McCusker). He is survived by sister Charlotte Humphries (Windsor, ON) and sons, Robin and Grant (Robin Taddy), daughter Hollis (Howard Ho) grandchildren, Kyla (Clayton Sartorius), Brenin, great-grandsons Cashen and Keean. Surviving in-laws include Robbie Obayashi, Sue Yoshida, Wendy Obayashi and Victor Schiavon. He is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews. Dad married Vicky (Obayashi) in 1953 and raised his family in Nakusp B.C. He was a devoted family man who maintained strong ties with his extended family and friends. The passing of Mom in 2005 prompted Dad to establish “Vicky’s View” as a lasting tribute to his beloved wife. This sprouted the roots of the Nakusp & Area Community Trails Society of which he is a founding member.

for him when he was quite young. Milton Parent, who was a few years younger than Bill, had learned to play the bugle when his brother brought one home. He could hardly wait to be old enough to join too. Leader Jack Bailey gave Milton a triangle to play and he was so disappointed! Bill piped up ‘Give him a bugle, he knows how to
play it!’ Another reason for Milton and Bill to be such good friends. They played for dances in different groups during their younger years and in 2012 they played in the pouring rain in a Rube Band on July 1st, just a few days before Milton passed away suddenly. Let us hope that they are together once again playing music and talking history.
BIG NEWS Arrow Lakes News has
NEW LOCATION
Bill was a tugboat “skipper” in the towboat industry until his retirement in 1992. He was a skilled “fast water man” who navigated the “river drive” in the powerful currents of the Columbia River. His unceasing passion for the “spectacular” Columbia River and the Arrow Lakes kept him active and agile after retirement as he continued to beachcomb the lake with his own tugboat, the “Arrow Brave”. Dad spent much of his time developing the family vacation property known as “Barrow’s Narrows”. Bill had enormous respect and an ardent interest in the history of the Arrow Lakes. He was a colorful storyteller who loved to relate the rich history of the early pioneers that built the community of Nakusp. In his earlier years, Bill was a key member of the Kinsmen Club and the K-40’s and was committed to servicing the community. Bill was an active member of the Nakusp Senior Citizens Association, the Arrow Lakes Historical Society, AA, and the Nakusp Trail Society. He was a Past Master and a long-standing member of Star of the West Lodge No.61. Dad was a good man who worked hard, loved his family, friends and the community of Nakusp and will be missed dearly. We can all take comfort knowing his legacy will live on in every life he touched. A service to honour Dad’s life will be held on Saturday, November 15th, 2014 at the United Church, Nakusp, BC at 1:00 pm. A reception will follow at the Legion Hall. In-lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to the Arrow Lakes Historical Society or the Nakusp & Area Community Trails Society in Nakusp, BC.

The Falcons made the long trip to Boundary on Sunday. Again both teams were evenly matched. Coates opened up the scoring just three minutes in to the first period, assisted by Carter. Boundary came right back and tied the game with a quick goal. Right off the face-off, Coates put the go ahead
goal in the net with the assist going to Trinity Didier. Coates made the game 3-1 at the end of the first period with a breakaway goal. Coates opened the second period with his fourth goal of the game with the assist going to Dakoda Fizzard. Boundary ended the second period with two quick ones but Nakusp held the lead with a score of 4-3. Boundary tied the game up 4-4 early in the third period and both teams battled to get the go ahead goal. Coates got his fifth straight
goal of the game in the middle of the third, assisted by Carter. Both teams battled back and forth for the remainder of the game but the Falcons could not hold the 5-4 lead. Boundary scrambled in front of the Falcons net and snuck the goal in that would tie the game 5-5 with just 23 seconds left in the game.

Rememberance Day We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields
