Do you find yourself reaching for a can of soda or a cup of coffee during the day to banish fatigue? Many do.

But you may want to grab a bottle of water instead.

Research indicates that lack of water is the No. 1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Therefore, not only can drinking adequate supplies of water keep you refreshed, it can also help to keep you more awake — even during a boring business meeting.

Meet and greet our candidates

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

It’s a revolutionary idea in its simplicity. This Sunday Salmon Arm residents will have a unique opportunity to meet the candidates running in the civic election in an old fashioned way, face-toface.

Lakeshore News and Salmon Arm Tim Hortons are co-sponsoring an All-Candidates Meet & Greet at the Downtown Activity Centre (DAC). The event will takes place from 4:306:30 p.m., Sunday, November 9th.

“It was brought to our attention that people wanted a chance to meet the candidates one-onone,” says Lakeshore News publisher Jeff Morrison. “The staff talked about it and we decided to sponsor this event.”

This year there are 15 running for six seats on city council, four running for mayor, and four running for two school trustee positions.

“I think that’s part of the issue, there are a number of new faces running and voters need an opportunity to meet them.”

All the candidates will be at the meet & greet with the exception of Ian Wickett, who is running for mayor, and Bobbi Johnson, who is running for school trustee. Both have out-of-town commitments and expressed their regrets.

“We’re grateful to the candidates for taking part in this event because it was rather short notice,” says Morrison. “We’re hoping the public takes advantage of the opportunity to meet with the candidates.”

People can enjoy Tim Horton’s coffee and goodies while they chat with the candidates.

“They will be there from 4:30-6:30, so people can come anytime during that two-hour period.

It’s a great way to find out what issues are important to the candidates and for voters to voice their expectations. It’s going to be relaxed and informal so people will feel comfortable approaching the candidates.”

The Downtown Activity Centre is located at 451 Shuswap St. SW, Salmon Arm.

Larch Hills meeting draws a crowd

A full house of 113 attended the Larch Hills Community Engagement Meeting held on Tuesday night at the Downtown Activity Centre.

Organized by the Larch Hills Nordic Society, and run by Kathy Porter of Summit Environmental Consultants (out of Vernon), the meeting called upon members of the Larch Hills Nordic Society, Shuswap Outdoors Club, and other non-winter users of the Larch Hills area such as cyclists, quadders, and equestrian folks, to provide input on a variety of topics related to the growth and

election!

Turn that device off

By Zoe Olson, MA – Registered Clinical Counsellor. Eden Clinical Counselling, www.edenclinicalcounselling.com When it comes to children and screen-time, parents are often sure to create a monitored environment that meets the recommended guidelines for their children. However, we rarely check in with ourselves about our own use of screen time. Busy schedules lead to checking emails and social media while our little ones are pulling at our pantlegs. Each email written or notification received has been shown to highlight the reward centres in our brains, giving a surge of dopamine (a feel-good chemical.)

This keeps us highly focused on our devices, and less so on our environment around us – including people.

Since the 1950’s, there has been a growing body of research on attachment style between children and their primary caregivers. A secure attachment style is linked with improved mental health incomes throughout the lifespan, higher interpersonal relationship satisfaction, higher self-esteem, and an increased

likelihood to seek out social support when needed. One key to creating a secure attachment style is a high amount of attunement on behalf of the caregiver with the child.

Attunement is being aware of, and responsive to another being. By responding to a child’s needs in a sensitive and timely manner, and watching for their cues, we display attunement and build on the attachment relationship. When we are on our devices we lose this ability and our children compete for our attention instead.

Technology requires moderation.

One thing I often discuss with parents whose children are displaying challenging behaviours is to ensure there is some significant screen-free time in the home for all members of the family. Connecting with children in an attuned manner can meet specific needs, often resulting in a decrease of challenging behaviours. I encourage you all to give dedicated screen-free time a try. Turning your devices off in the evenings or one day of the weekend may allow you to attune more closely with your loved ones.

BC is tops for organic food

One of the many newsletters I receive in my inbox comes from the Organic Consumers Association.

From this particular week’s email, I clicked through to research some of the more local information on organic food. I made my way to the Canada Organic Trade Association website where I was interested to find a research paper titled “The BC Organic Market.”

I found this summary to be very interesting, as it looked at many aspects of the organic food industry in BC compared to the rest of Canada. There were some surprising and encouraging findings in this study. One of the highlights was that the Canadian organic market has grown exponentially over the past few years. In fact it is now valued at $3.7 billion per year in sales, and is the fourth largest in the world! Through their shopping habits, Canadians are demanding more organic foods versus conventionally-grown foods. While organic foods used to be far more expensive than conventional food, the price difference is decreasing due to demand from British Columbia shoppers.

What was also interesting about the organic food market is the difference between BC and the rest of Canada. For instance, in BC, 40%

of the products at farmers’ markets are from certified organic farmers, while in Ontario it’s only 10%.

Summarizing this 36 page study, I am pleased to report that residents of BC are becoming a lot more conscious of what they put into their grocery carts and into their mouths.

British Columbians are more aware of the negative health effects of chemicals, pesticides, and genetic modification in our food supply.

This consciousness is changing the way people buy and consume their food in our province. And as usual, the most effective way to make changes in a market and industry is through the public’s demand for different products, and by “voting with your wallet” when you shop.

Finally, this study forecasts that the organic food market will continue to grow over the coming years.

As BC consumers are also seeking more “local” products, they also determined it is possible to combine both “local” and “organic” in way that is beneficial to both sectors. All these are encouraging findings that will only benefit the health of BC residents.

Haney receives money to renovate houses

SALMON ARM – A local historical gem received a thorough polishing and upgrade, thanks to a partnership between the government of B.C. and the Salmon Arm Museum and Heritage Association that gave four local people work experience. The association received more than $21,000 in Job Creation Partnership funding so workers could renovate two historical houses at the R.J. Haney Heritage Village and Museum — the Pidhirney House and the Laitinen House — as well as install a new roof on the Kew log cabin and build and repair split-rail fencing

throughout the village. Workers scraped and painted the exterior of Pidhirney House, repaired its windows, replaced its wood gutters and built a new ramp to improve access to the historic structure for people with disabilities. At the Laitinen House, workers shingled the gabled ends, installed windows, framed and shingled the porch, and painted the exterior windows and doors. The 26-week project wrapped up on Oct. 17.

“It’s so great to see local Job Creation Partnerships like this one benefit Salmon Arm and the R.J. Haney Heritage Village and

Museum,” says Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo.

“Visitors will be able to enjoy the work that participants did for years to come.”

Job Creation Partnerships are part of the Employment Program of BC’s Community and Employer Partnerships, which fund projects that increase employability and share labour market information. To date, more than 450 job seekers have benefited from work experience and more than 120 projects have been funded throughout the province. The Community and Employer Partnerships program is featured in B.C.’s Skills for Jobs Blueprint that helps align training and education with in-demand jobs and provides more support to people who are struggling to gain a foothold in the job market or who face unique challenges.

CHOOSE A COUNCIL THAT WILL GROW THE CITY I will not vote for any candidate to lead Salmon Arm who opposed SmartCentres and Walmart west of town.

Go to the city’s website at www.salmonarm.ca, find the list of all candidates, print it and mark the ones you will choose. We will vote to elect one mayor, six councillors, and two school trustees.

WALMART IS ONE YEAR OLD Tomorrow, Nov. 8 is the first anniversary of Walmart in Salmon Arm. Congratulations! A number of businesses came to Salmon Arm because SmartCentres and Walmart were coming.

SHOEBOXES, TOQUES, GLOVES, TO KIDS IN UKRAINE A representative of Operation Christmas Child in Canada was in Ukraine recently and saw the need for shoeboxes to be sent to children who have been displaced by war, and are being cared for by the local churches and population. In addition to sending thousands of shoeboxes to the regular 13 receiving countries, Samaritan’s Purse is giving Canadians the opportunity to pack an additional 20,000 to help children in Ukraine. Ukraine has cold winters, so gift boxes can include items such as toques, scarves, and mittens or gloves. If you didn’t get a box at your church, you can pick up as many as you like from Mall Arkey Financial office in Centenoka Mall during business hours. During collection week, Nov. 17-23, you can drop off filled boxes at the Big Steel Box container on the Centenoka Mall parking lot, or at the Mall Arkey office in the mall. If you have questions, contact Sheldon Carlson, who is responsible for Operation Christmas Child in Salmon Arm, at jscarlson41@yahoo. ca or 250-517-7247.

STORY ABOUT A YOUNG SASK. GIRL IN 1939 WHOSE TOWN BECOMES AN AIR TRAINING BASE A new wartime novel has been written by a friend of mine, a former newspaper owner in Invermere. Bird’s Eye View tells the story of a young woman in Saskatchewan whose hometown becomes an air-training base. Fired with patriotism, she joins the air force herself – one of 50,000 Canadian women who enlisted to support the fighting men. Rose Jolliffe travels overseas as an interpreter of aerial photographs, spying on the enemy from the sky, and searching out camouflaged munitions factories to bomb. She keeps in touch with the home front through frequent letters from her mother.

The author, Elinor Florence, grew up on a former wartime airfield near North Battleford, Sask. She is a mem-

Better system needed for transportation to hospital

I had occasion to be taken by ambulance to Salmon Arm twice in the past week with extremely high blood pressure and heart rate. The first trip was on Monday, October 20 and the second was October 23. Since I live in Enderby, I requested a voucher for a taxi to come home. It was late at night and I had nobody to pick me up. On Thursday (actually Friday at 3:00 a.m.), I again asked for a voucher, and was told by the head nurse that

it was the last voucher I would get. And, from now on, I couldn’t come there by ambulance. I had to get there and back home on my own. Therefore, if I have a life-threatening episode, and I drive myself, risking an accident and maybe even resulting in a death, that would be very sad.

I think there should be a better way of dealing with this kind of circumstance.

BID ON A DIAMOND SOLITAIRE RING It is valued at $15,000 and all money must go to charity. “Anonymous” wrote that many years ago she and her husband were close to bankruptcy, with young children and a shaky marriage. They decided to sell their home, but no one looked at it. After they both prayed to God, people came to see it, and it sold on the sixth day.

They were so happy they decided to donate a small portion of the money to a charity as a thank offering to the Lord. They didn’t know which charity or charities to give it to, so they decided to put the money in a savings account and waited until they received a firm direction from God. Twelve years ago, they decided if they were holding the money for the love of Jesus, they should invest it and make it grow. They bought a diamond as the solution, then they could liquidate it for charity. Neither knew how, until Anonymous thought they could have it made into a ring and sold, with the buyer deciding which charity or charities the money would be given.

They took their idea to Arthur’s Gem Set Studio in Piccadilly and the staff was thrilled to be part of such an unusual plan. Kristine, one of the goldsmiths, took the 1.05 carat GIA certified S12-H diamond and designed and created an exclusive 18k white gold and rose solitaire ring, and named it Charity. Arthur Hemeyer appraised it at $15,000. The store will not take any of the money.

There is a reserve bid of $12,000 by the donors. Have a look at the beautiful ring which is in a locked glass display cabinet at the jewellery store, and place a bid before it goes on the internet. Bids will close a week before Christmas. 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.

2014 RDSP refresher II

save for expenditures in the short term.

Last week we discussed the Canada Disability Savings Grant in detail, but we didn’t mention the Canada Disability Savings Bond (CDSB) mentioned above.

The CDSB is another source of funds for an RDSP that is only available to lower income families. In this case the government will contribute through a CDSB to your RDSP up to $1,000 annually ($20,000 lifetime maximum) even if no contribution has been made into the RDSP in a given year. You read that correctly; you don’t even have to make a contribution and the government will give you money!

To qualify for the maximum CDSB the family income needs to be less than ~$25,350. For incomes above ~$23,350 and below ~$43,560, The Salmar Grand got an interior facelift earlier this week with the $1,000 some new graphic wallpaper in the lobby. Howard Vangool photo.

Last week we laid out the basics of the Registered Disability Savings Plan, or RDSP. I received a couple phone calls asking for clarification on the age in which you can start a plan, and the age in which you can get the grant. So to clarify, you can contribute to an RDSP up until December 31st of the year you turn 59 years old.

However, the grant that the government throws in is only available on contributions made up until the end of the year the beneficiary reaches 49 years old.

Find it in the Lakeshore News

mallarkey

The reason for the difference in age is the “10 year rule.” This rule requires that any Canada Disability Savings Grant (CDSG) or Canada Disability Savings Bond (CDSB) received in the 10 years prior to a withdrawal payment be repaid to the government. The repayment is to ensure RDSPs are used for long-term savings and also to deter withdrawals from being made only to re-contribute in order to access to future grants.

Therefore, an RDSP isn’t necessarily the best option to

by Daron Mayes

A new look

CDSB is prorated based on a formula reducing it to zero once your family income is greater than ~$43,560.

The last thing we’ll look at is how withdrawals are taxed.

Like RESPs, there are three components to the funds sitting in a person’s RDSP. Firstly, there is the capital that was contributed, secondly the grants (CDSG/CDSB) from the government, and finally investment income from the growth of the underlying investments. The capital contributed was non-deductible and is therefore non-taxable when withdrawn. However, any portion of a withdrawal that relates to the grants or investment income is taxed in the hands of the beneficiary when withdrawn. In theory, the beneficiary’s income will be very low and result in little or no taxes payable as a result of this income. However, it depends on an individual’s tax situation.

Overall, RDSPs can be a great tool to help those with a disability build up some savings and provide some security for the future. Be sure to take advantage of it or tell someone you know who may qualify.

The Commission will assist CSRD staff by ensuring it receives thoughtful and comprehensive advice from a representative group of individuals from within the local area who have knowledge and interest in the parks and recreation needs of the community.

Invaders out!

It’s been about three years since the treatment of rotenone to nine Shuswap and area lakes to eradicate the spiny ray species of perch, including bass and sunfish, that were put in by the so-called ‘bucket brigade.’ Then, introduced once again were strains of FraserValley, Pennask, and Blackwater trout. The Fraser Valley and Blackwater, both piscivore species (meaning they will devour small coarse fish such as red-sided dace, sculpin, and shiners). Now, aquatic insect life has multiplied, frogs and turtles have returned to all lakes in question, and anglers are now enjoying some fine trout fishing once again.

Members of the Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club contributed in many ways to the preparation for applying treatment to Phillips/Skimikin/ Gardom/Skamana, by placing the docks, so crews from the Ministry of Environment could get the boats and Venturi pumps to waters’ edge. Club members also provided security at night to protect gear and equipment, and gathered literally thousands of dead perch at Gardom and Skimikin Lakes for disposal. Last fall, two more small lakes atop Larch Hills were also treated, with club members assisting once again by chainsawing away road blockages into these lakes for treatment. It’s hard to believe how just a few individuals can destroy great trout-only fishing that affected so many anglers, for their own selfish desire of a different species fishery. The cost of treating these lakes was humongous, including the hauling of drinking water for months to residents and farms by Gardom Lake. However, us anglers now enjoy trout-only angling, and proof of this has been shown at Phillips Lake, with excellent fall catches of large rainbows. Last Sunday, Gardom Lake had a good number of fishers enjoying some relaxation in the sunshine for once, and some pretty damn good catches besides. This lake contains Fraser Valley/Pennask trout; Pennask being the old standby for most Okanagan/Shuswap lakes for the past many years.

With fear of invasive species, biologists requested the Blackwater (Quesnel River) and Fraser Valley strains, to ensure that if there ever were another introduction to the above lakes, at least these trout would clean up on the invaders.

shuswapoutdoors

by Hank Shelley Last year, Oyama Lake experienced the introduction of a bucket of red-sided dace, a small shiner type species, obviously from an ignorant angler who used live shiners for bait in Alberta or other places. Most local anglers are aware of folks wanting to introduce bass, for example, which has happened on Vancouver Island, and some lower mainland lakes. Osoyoos Lake and Shannon Lake (at Westbank) have smallmouth bass.

But bass were also collected from Gardom Lake during cleanup, including a yellow/blue species of goldfish. These were large fish, again introduced from an aquarium.

There alway have been perch in Okanagan Lake at the shallower north end. It was thought that the perch introduced into Pinaus Lake came from this source. Presently, we have a bunch of happy anglers enjoying good trout fishing on all the rehabilitated lakes. For those who chose to introduce invasive species to start their own fishery – you will be caught.

The unfortunate aspect of this whole mess, and the associated extensive cost, was initial lack of funding to do a damn thing, by the fisheries branch in Kamloops, and the only lame duck excuse was that their piscivore pesticide permits had expired. I sat in the meeting in Kamloops when the deputy minister attended. There was heated debate and exchanges over the whole issue. Finally, funding was acquired and action taken. But the damage was done and they damn well knew it. Each spring, along with the run-off, perch flushed down Hilliho (Bear Creek), from Skamana Lake into the Adams River, and thus Shuswap Lake. Forrest Lake (near Barriere), full of perch, flushed perch into Adams Lake.

We must do more for the environment, fish and wildlife and forests. We also have to be more forceful in telling the government what we want.

Hopefully the perch now found in both salmon-rearing lakes such as Shuswap /Adams will not produce perch which will ultimately destroy the valued salmon stocks that we have seen this past fall on the Adams River.

Meetings are held approximately three times per year. Members will be appointed for a 2 ½ year term, commencing January 1, 2015.

Santa sets up shop in Enderby

After much effort, organizers have found a home for Santa’s Workshop in Enderby.

Located at 708 Cliff Ave., the space is small but the volunteers are determined to continue the long-standing Enderby tradition.

“We were worried it wasn’t going to happen because every place we checked out did not work for one reason or another,” explained Jackie Pearase, who coordinates the event with her sister, Tracy Ell. “But we plan to be open November 10 to begin taking donations and preparing for the shopping sprees.”

Due to the short timeline and small space, people are asked to be careful about what they donate.

“We want items you want to see under the tree from your little gift-giv-

ers at Christmas,” said Ell. “We usually have more than a month to get things organized and we are now looking at three weeks. So any and all help is appreciated – from helping at the workshop to donating items that we can box up with little effort.”

Santa’s Workshop collects new and gently used items that kids might want to give to those on their lists – jewelery, household items, games, tools, gadgets, etc.

Items needing some love are washed and/ or fixed up, then boxed for the Kids’ Only Shopping Spree.

Kids aged 12 and under are escorted by an elf, who helps with selections and budgeting. The gifts are then wrapped so kids can have the joy of giving a surprise on Dec. 25.

Celebrate a life this December

Held annually each year in December, this year’s Celebrate a Life event is scheduled for December 1 through December 20, 10 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. at Piccadilly Mall.

Celebrate a Life is a time to honour and give symbolic expression to your feelings and thoughts about

your loved one who is no longer here. Participating in Celebrate a Life may help you feel less alone at this time of year. By illuminating a light on the Celebrate a Life Tree, you honour the life of your loved one, as well as honouring yourself.

You remember the love and the experiences you shared.

My annual window heat-loss rant

It would seem that winter is winning the battle against autumn.

Again. Which means that our heating bills will start to go up in direct inverse proportion to the temperature going down. Because at least 25 percent of your home heating bill goes out the windows, I thought I’d do my annual “Get the proper window coverings” tirade today.

Yup, twenty-five percent of your heating bill goes out your windows.

“But,” you cry,” I have triple glazed, top-of-the-line, low-E, brandy-spankin’ new windows. They don’t allow this much heat through.”

Yes, they are better than single-pane windows, but surprisingly not by much. Let’s face it, when we are talking $25.00 of every $100.00 in heating costs just disappearing, we need some proven, quick and functional answers to the heat-loss problems rather than 5 or 10 percent changes in insulating values.

A super window will have an R-value of about 4. The wall beside it is R-24. A single layer of venetian blind or unlined curtain, will give you an additional R-value of 1. Add a lining to the drapes, or substitute a cellular shade and the R-value jumps to maybe 3. (If you use a triple cell shade, with an inner cell, you might get an R-value of 7 or 8.)

Add a drapery treatment with a blackout lining and interlining to the cell shade and you are up to 13 or 14. Add a board-mounted valance above the drapes and you could get up to an R-value of 15 or 16. Not bad. And you will decrease your heat loss by about 50 percent.

There will be some engineer types out there who say that the correct way to measure window heat loss is by U-value, not R-value and they are right. But most of us have a hard enough time with R-value, and the figures I use here are U-values converted to R-values through EcoWho.com and Energyguide.com. I don’t make this stuff up.

Energy films applied directly to your windows (such as EnergyFilm) can reduce heat loss by up to 35 percent. And the stick-to-the-frame clear plastic can increase the U-Value of the window by up to 90%.

(Uoregon.edu/hof/ W10HOF/22FilmPaper.pdf) So there you go. Lots of options.

I’d love to hear what your experience is, and what products you think work best. linda@ designsewlutions.ca. I’ll post all the visuals and links on the website designsewlutions.ca.

Flu season may be early this year

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press It’s a good year to get a shot of influenza vaccine early, says Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall.

“We’re already starting to see some influenza activity around the province, which suggests that this flu season may be coming earlier than past flu seasons,” Kendall said this week.

Kendall joined Health Minister Terry Lake and other MLAs who rolled up their sleeves to receive their annual flu shots at the B.C. legislature.

Lake said flu vaccination is on the upswing in B.C., with last year setting a record for doses of vaccine administered. That includes 76 per cent of health care workers, who are now required to get vaccinated or wear a mask in patient care areas during the

winter flu season.

Contrary to popular misconceptions about “stomach flu” or “24-hour flu,” influenza is a severe respiratory disorder caused by a group of viruses that circulate globally.

The Public Health Agency of Canada estimates that 3,500 people per year die of complications from influenza, particularly seniors and people with underlying conditions such as asthma. There are more flu-related fatalities than from all other vaccine-prevented diseases combined.

Flu shots can be obtained from doctors’ offices, pharmacies and public health facilities. To find the nearest flu shot clinic, call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 or visit the influenza clinic finder at www.immunizebc.ca/clinics/flu.

Flu shots are free in B.C. for all children between six months and five years of age, seniors 65 and over, pregnant women, aboriginal people, anyone with a chronic health condition or compromised immune system and those who live with or plan to visit a person with high risk of complications.

Community garage sales, bazaars and craft sales are run for one week at no charge in the classified section; additional weeks are

Letters to the Editor Maximize your vote for councillor

I was talking with a friend recently about the upcoming Salmon Arm election on November 15. Out of 15 candidates for council, he said that he was very familiar and impressed with three. He didn’t know much about the others although he recognized three names. He incorrectly thought that he needed to vote for six councillors so those would likely be his choices.

I pointed out that there is no obligation to vote for all six councillor positions.

You can vote for as few as one or as many as six councillors. Your ballot is valid and will count regardless of the number of councillors you vote for.

In fact, it may be better not to vote for all six councillor positions. This is where

the concept of plumping the vote comes in. The idea is to focus the vote on those candidates who impress you as potentially good councillors and not feel obligated to also vote for those you know little about and perceive as less desirable. In this way, the effect of your voting is not diluted by adding to the total votes of less attractive candidates. Besides this, some consider it a poor expression of the democratic process to vote for candidates unless you are familiar with their ideas and what they stand for.

As an example of how plumping can work, consider the results of a previous Salmon Arm election. In that example year, the candidate who received 2551 votes won the sixth position on council.

Sunday duplicate

Sunday Duplicate Bridge Club’s results for Sunday, November 2 are as follows: in first place, Vicki and Glen Coe; in second place, Edie and Jack Swanson; in third place, Ona Bouchard and Carol Jeffery; and in fourth place, Peter Budda and Doug Stewart.

The Sunday Duplicate Club meets every Sunday at 1:00 p.m. at the 5th Avenue Senior’s Centre. For more information call 250-8326550.

Bridge can be played online with people all over the world.

The candidate who came in seventh had 2458 votes, a 93 vote difference.

Consider the possibility that 94 or more people who voted for candidate 7 regarded this candidate as their top choice.

Then consider further that maybe they also voted for candidate 6, perhaps only a name they recognized just to fill the ballot, similar to what my friend had thought. If these people had only voted for candidates they truly wanted on council and thus not voted for candidate 6, then candidate 7 would have won instead.

So, on November 15 do get out and vote. Make your vote count even more by voting for only those candidates who support your vision.

Nym’s journey of a lifetime – one day in New York

A12 Friday, November 7, 2014 Lakeshore News

By Nikki Weber Walking through the large glass doors of a very non-descript, and rather anonymous looking white building on the side of an extremely busy street in Queens, you would never guess that just past the security guard sitting in an enormous white foyer and up the blank white elevator to the fourth floor that just down the corridor to the left lives a wondrously amazing and magical place – the Jim Henson Studios in New York City!

In absolute awe, we were warmly welcomed with a cheery smile by none other than Cheryl Henson herself. Warm, sincere and generous,

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

she exuded all that we imagined Jim Henson Studios to be, and more. We were ushered into this fantastic colourful workshop and right away were surrounded by Mr. Snuffleupagus, Elmo, one of the original Skesis chairs from “The Dark Crystal” (below, left), the entire cast from Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas and various other iconic puppets – and this was only in the receiving area. Since the workshop is not open to the public, we were honoured to be invited for a tour of the facilities – it was a lifelong dream come true!

The people that we met and encountered on our tour were friendly, open and seemed to exude all the kind-hearted qualities that Jim Henson Studios embraces – we even were fortunate enough to meet some Master Puppet Builders who have been working for the company for over forty years – including the creator of Fizzgig, the incredibly precocious pet of Kira’s from The Dark Crystal!

It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. And this was only the beginning of our incredible day in New York!

Racing back to Brooklyn to quickly change and collect Nym, we headed towards the BAMcinematek for the “Puppets On Film” Gala and Nym’s New York

debut. Even walking with her through the streets generated an enormous amount of interest, and through Nym we were able to meet an array of curious and wonderful people who wanted to know more about her and her story. There were pictures taken, friendly smiles exchanged, and joyful conversations everywhere we went with her.

Finally arriving at the BAMcinematek, we were greeted by an architectural and historic masterpiece! It was breathtaking to behold and made even more exciting by the knowledge that this is where the events of the upcoming evening were about to take place. Giddy with excitement, with Nym still in tow, Melissa and I entered the gorgeous building and were instantly greeted by the talented organizer of the event Z (pronounced Zee) who right away introduced us to Brian and Wendy Froud, an unbelievable stroke of good luck as they also had arrived at the same time for their upcoming book signing – we couldn’t believe our good fortune!

This enchanting couple were excited to finally meet Nym in person and they even signed her display case for us! It was an incredible honour for us to meet them.

Upon entering the theatre itself, we were greeted again by the lovely Cheryl Henson who also was thrilled to finally meet Nym and graciously signed her display case as well. We were over the moon at this point, which was further escalated when Cheryl asked us to bring her down to the front so that she could be presented to everyone during the “Create a Dark Crystal Creature” Honourable Mentions portion of the program.

Reeling from all of the utter amazingness of our day, and with trembling knees, we carried our precious package down the glamourous steps of the theatre to await the moment when we would be called to the stage.

The presentation by Cheryl Henson, and Brian and Wendy Froud was funny, uplifting and thoroughly enjoyable –we even got to hear an excerpt from the winner of the Author Quest Contest J.M. Lee from his upcoming Prequel book, as well as a talk from Jeff Brown, the Winner of the Creature Contest – both of whom are talented gentlemen and a delight for us to meet and become friends with. Then, as Cheryl and Wendy went through the list of Honourable Mentions, there was a pause as Nym came up on this enormous theatre screen (above, right) and we were called to bring her up to the stage.

Standing there in the glaring lights in front of a sold-out theatre audience, we were excited, nervous, elated and feeling so privileged to be there and be a part of this magical event. Both Cheryl and Wendy talked about the things that they loved about Nym and what made her special to the world of the Dark Crystal – we were so touched by all that had happened, and was still happening, that we were almost struck speechless when Cheryl handed us the microphone to talk about Nym. Hearts thundering in our ears as loud as the applause, we shuttled Nym off the stage into the wings and watched the rest of the presentation in the shadows only to be flabbergasted once more as Toby Froud, incredibly talented puppeteer and filmmaker came over to shake both our hands and tell us that he thought Nym was “just amazing!”

This was followed with the screening of Toby’s brand new short film “Lessons Learned,” which was absolutely enchanting and was immediately followed by a showing of “The Dark Crystal” – how lovely it was to see this beloved film on the big screen again.

We were fortunate that the invite-only reception was in the same building on the upper floor and so once the film credits had finished we began our trek, with our new friends, to the evening event – whirling from the absolute surrealism of our day thus far and looking forward with great anticipation to our upcoming evening event.

Just as before, Nym attracted a lot of attention following the film and again we were blessed to be talking and sharing with many more people who were enthralled with Nym and even wanted to take pictures with her! She was becoming quite the celebrity in New York.

Thinking our fabulous day in New York couldn’t possibly get any better, we shuffled our way to the event and rested Nym on a table in a back corner of the

room so that we could mingle with all these talented people that we had been given the good fortune to meet with.

Only we never made it out of the corner – instead these fabulously creative people, who had worked with Jim Henson himself on projects like “The Dark Crystal,” “Fraggle Rock” and “Labyrinth,” began congregating around Nym and we spent a good portion of the evening learning and talking with these wonderful icons of the puppeteering world. We even had Kathy Mullen (who was the Master Puppeteer of the main female character Kira, from the Dark Crystal) ask if we would take Nym out of her display case so that she could see her up close and puppet her!

Overwhelmed with joy, we willingly obliged and watched as Kathy brought our creation to life in front of our eyes and ensnared the room’s attention, truly Nym and Kathy stole the show – we couldn’t believe what we were watching, and learning from her! It was the most unbelievably breathtaking and humbling experience of our fibre artists’ lives.

What we became aware of and realized most during this wondrous experience is the joy and connection that puppets bring – there was no boundaries to cross, or hurdles to maneuver – it was people simply connecting, with us, with each other, and most especially with Nym. This connection began shortly after her creation here in Salmon Arm, with our own community and continued through her entire journey to New York, and back.

Nym touched lives, created joy, sparked conversations and made friends of perfect strangers.

SPORTS & LEISURE Tips host at home

By Peter Kociuba The Podollan Inn Peewee Tier 2 Silvertips played host to 11 other teams in their home tournament this past weekend.

The Tips opened their round robin with a game against Williams Lake on Friday. Ty Bailey scored first for Salmon Arm, slipping the puck past the Williams Lake netminder on the power play. Ty Sanford flew down the right wing a few minutes later, and roofed the puck to send the Tips into the first intermission with a two goal lead. Taylor Howard’s hard backhand early in the second would put Salmon Arm up by 3 and they wouldn’t stop there. Mason Balon’s wrister would catch the goalie going the wrong way, and Zander Stewart’s seeing eye laser from the point would find the back of the net to spot the Tips a 5 nil lead going into the third. Colby Feist and Connor Johnson would round out the scoring for the Silvertips, who took it to Williams Lake by a 7-0 final. Goaltender Rod May picked up the shutout for Salmon Arm. Their first of two games proved to be their best on Saturday, even though they came out on the losing end of a 3-2 contest vs Arbutus. Sanford got his second of the tournament early in the first period, sprung by defenseman Stewart for a top corner breakaway marker. Lucas Piekarczyk would hammer a rebound past the Arbutus netminder to hand the Tips a two goal lead early in the second period. Arbutus proved too strong in transition for the Tips however, as the opposition scored 3 unanswered for the win. Tips netminder Gabriel Murrels-Allaway kept the home team in the game with a strong third period.

Opposition West Kelowna also proved to be too strong for Salmon Arm in their second game on Saturday, handing the Tips a 5-1 loss. The lone bright spot for home team was a Blake McBeth floater that found its way past the opposition netminder.

Sunday’s game vs Kamloops was another close contest. Kamloops opened the scoring, but Bailey tied it up midway through the first period, setup by line-mates Taylor Howard and Connor Kociuba. Feist would notch a power-play marker to knot it at 2 as time wound down in the second.

Marino Bordin would give the Tips the lead early in the third, but Kamloops would storm back to tie it up a few minutes later. Kamloops would take the lead with 3 minutes left in the game and then score into the empty net to seal the victory.

The Silvertips rest this weekend before traveling for a pair of games the following Saturday and Sunday.

Update on Falkland news Fundraiser for young Aumie First Responders

By Bruce Vandergucht For those who are unaware what First Responders do, they are a volunteer group that assist the ambulance personnel with emergency services where there are no medical facilities; mostly at vehicle accidents and with heart attack victims, where time is a factor. Volunteers take training dictated by the Ministry of Health and are on duty twenty-four hours a day. Contact is made via cell phones provided by the organization. With no government help, funding is an ongoing problem. Most funding is through the generosity of organizations and the public.

Recently, the Salmon Arm Rotary Club donated $4600 to the group for the purchase of an ambulance. Presently the group uses an older van, which is starting to show its age. Much to our dismay, the ambulance personnel decided that the cost of an ambulance was unwarranted, as it would necessitate the hiring of a full-time paramedic. This was a disappointment for the Responders. However, through negotiation with the Rotarians, it was agreed to improve the van by upgrading the tires for winter driving, and purchasing two new diesel batteries and a new water pump. In addition, we have upgraded our defibrillators and are providing training for three volunteers. We are very grateful to the Rotary Club for providing this most important funding.

We have been out on several road accidents recently, so having a winterized vehicle is very important.

For those who are unaware of the type of calls attended by the responders, recently, a young lady swerved to avoid hitting a deer on Hwy 97, and she drove down an embankment. This was later at night, and one of the volunteers was in bed. She didn’t want to take time to get dressed, so simply put her jacket on over her Mickey Mouse pyjamas, much to the amusement of the ambulance driver. As it turned out, the driver was wearing her seat belt and wasn’t badly injured.

We are very thankful for our volunteers that are so dedicated they go to work in their pyjamas!

We are in our final two weeks of selling tickets on our fundraising raffle. Prizes include a trip by WestJet to anywhere in Canada; a television; a sculpture; a trip on a local lake; and other miscellaneous prizes. We will be selling tickets outside at the Falkland Store on Saturday (also during store hours).

For more info on the First Responders, or to volunteer or make a charitable donation, email brucev01@telus. net or phone 250-3792608.

By Ozzie Leaf So fall is definitely here, with all the leaves falling, autumn colours showing everywhere, and bright sunny days–what a great show that Mother Nature has given us. I think we all enjoyed a great thanksgiving with family and friends. I know this reporter did, as I was invited out to a dinner on three consecutive days.

We are so fortunate to be living in a country with adequate food and shelter where so many people are starving and so much unrest in some countries. We can only hope that things will get better for everyone.

There were 21 in attendance at the F.C.A. monthly meeting held at The Seniors Hall on Oct 7th. New lighting has been installed on the front exterior of our hall to illuminate the front entrance. A discussion on having more R.C.M.P. presence showing around our town, and to have a member attending our monthly meeting once a month.

A note of interest: Mark Zuehlke, a former resident of Falkland, who attended school here while living with his parents, has been awarded The Governor General’s History Award. Mark writes on military history and will be awarded the GG Pierre Berton Award for his recent work. There is a World Series Baseball pool on the go right now, and is being sponsored by the Curling Club. It you want to get in on it, contact me at 250-379-2262.

Wow, did you know that a pack of cigarettes costs $11 and a tin of copenhagen, or snuff, costs $25? When this reporter worked in McClounies Store here in 1942, cigarettes were 35 cents and a tin of snuff was 25 cents, called two bits.

There was some confusion downtown a few weeks ago with the presence of so many RCMP police cars, but it turned out to be a routine road check for traffic going through town.

The City of Kamloops is concerned about the number of roadkills in their area. It costs the city $225 to look after each kill.

Johnny’s Java is now closed for the winter.

Contributed Aumie Sato is just 22 months old and is fighting for her life. The little girl from Salmon Arm was diagnosed with cancer and shortly afterwards had surgery on October 10th to remove a teratoma tumour from her spine. Her doctors at BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver have since discovered that the cancer has metastasized to her lung. On October 21st Aumie began chemotherapy.

Doctors advised Aumie’s family that her stay in hospital could be as long as sixmonths.

Aumie’s mother Yuko is staying close by her side during the cancer treatment. But this means her father Toshi is left to run his restaurant Sushi Kotan by himself, while trying to take care of their two other daughters Anjou and Hannah. The emotional burden of caring for a sick child hundreds of miles from home is tough enough – add to this the financial burden of travel expenses and lost wages – and it becomes almost unbearable.

The community of Salmon Arm has already rallied behind the Sato family – chopping wood, making

meals, providing childcare and generously donating almost $12,000 through the online fundraising site YouCaring.com (“Help Aumie Fight Childhood Cancer.”)

Now, local restaurateur Rob Sengotta is holding an event to raise more funds for the Sato family.

“I’ve got a little one myself,” says Sengotta, “and I can’t imagine how difficult this must be for Toshi and his family. He’s a good guy, he’s been very good to me, and that’s why I wanted to do something to alleviate the incredible financial stress a little bit.”

On Sunday, November 16th at 6:30 p.m. Shuswap Chefs restaurant will hold a fundraiser for Aumie and her family. The tickets are $85 and include dinner, a bottle of wine per couple, dessert from Blue Canoe Bakery and live music. Tickets can be purchased by calling Shuswap Chefs at 250-832-5019 or dropping into Culinary Inspirations.

“There are only 100 tickets for this event,” says Sengotta, “and given the community response already to helping the Sato family, this event will surely sell out. So get your tickets now!”

With gratitude for our freedom

Recognizing our fallen

By Leah Blain Normally the cenotaph isn’t adorned with flowers until November 11th, but this year is different. There was an impromptu ceremony last week to honour the two Canadian soldiers who were killed on Canadian soil.

Corporal Nathan Cirillo, 24, was fatally shot while performing sentry duty at the National War Memorial and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, 53, was killed in a deliberate hitand-run.

As the Salmon Arm Legion Branch 62 officially started their annual poppy campaign the image of these two soldiers were very much in everyone’s thoughts.

Salmon Arm Mayor Nancy Cooper mentioned them as she accepted the first poppy.

“This is a solemn occasion. We remember those who have served and those who are still serving. I’m honoured to receive this poppy; it means a lot and it’s heightened by the recent events.”

Dan St. Pierre, Branch 62 First Vice President, said the poppy campaign is their biggest fund raiser and by buying and wearing a poppy, residents can

support the Legion and their important work. The money is used for everything from support programs for veterans to bursaries and assisting local non-profit organizations. The money goes to help all these causes, but wearing the poppy serves another purpose.

Sincere gratitude to all our veterans.

“This poppy campaign is to commemorate all serving members,” says St. Pierre, adding this also includes the RCMP. He served on the HMCS Terra Nova during the First Gulf War and he is aware of others who continue to serve the country.

“The idea of sacrifice is always in the back of my mind; they’re in harm’s way. In my own way,” he says, referring to the poppy campaign, “we remember them at home.”

Branch 62 President Henry Butters says he is gratified by the large attendance at the November 11th Remembrance Day service.

“This will now be my 13th year as president and every year at the cenotaph I’ve seen a steady growth of attendance, especially in the young people. It’s extremely heartwarming to me.”

In contrast, he says he finds the deaths of the two Canadian soldiers “very disturbing” – particularly considering the place where Corporal Cirillo was killed.

“The war memorial,” he says emphatically, “is a very sacred place.”

Jack Stead, who represented Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo at the ceremony, said we will always need to remember the heroic sacrifice of those who fought for our freedom.

The events of these past few weeks, he said, are a reminder that Canadians must always keep up that fight.

“We live in a peaceful and beautiful part of the world but there are evil people out there who wish us harm. We remember our veterans and fallen heroes and we must be vigilant in opposing those who do us harm.”

Take time to remember.

November 11th

Lest We Forget For those who gave their lives for us On November 11, Remembrance Day commemorates the sacrifice of Canadians who served their country in times of war. This day marks the end of the First World War, when the armistice was signed by Germany and the allied forces in Paris on Monday, November 11, 1918. A ceasefire came into effect at 11:00 a.m. on the same day. Some 60,000 Canadians died in combat in that war, a sad fact which is remembered in many ceremonies organized across the country, from the Canadian War Memorial in Ottawa to cenotaphs in hundreds of towns and cities. According to tradition, all Canadians are asked to observe two minutes of silence at eleven o’clock, on the eleventh day of the eleventh month. We do this because we must never forget the weight of war.

Thank you all past and present Veterans.

We will remember them.

Canadians have observed Remembrance Day for nine decades now.

(Reproduced with the permission of Veterans affairs Canada)

In Canada, the first Remembrance Day ceremony took place at 11:00 am on November 11, 1919. This means we have been remembering our war heroes for nine decades now and the ceremonies are still very relevant.

Originally, the objective of Remembrance Day was to pay homage to all those who gave their lives in the Great War. Today this special day commemorates all members of the Canadian military who have perished on land or at sea during past or current wars.

For 90 years, ceremonies across the country have been occasions to express our collective memories, compassion and respect for the missing and the dead. We wear poppies and observe two minutes of silence. Every second passed in silence should be devoted to thinking of the courageous nurses who cared for the wounded during two world wars, to farm workers and office workers who contributed to the war effort as well as to the wives and mothers who received the terrible news of the disappearance of a brother, son or husband.

For those born in peace time, the terrible damage wrought by war is never very real. But on November 11, we have every occasion to remember the efforts made by Canadians, both men and women, who are stationed in places such as Afghanistan. Indeed, since the terrible events of September 11, 2001 many Canadians have died in conflict zones.

And finally, Remembrance Day is also the time to take a moment of silence and vow to make the same sacrifices as these heroic Canadians, if our peace should be threatened.

From cameras to trenches

By Deborah Chapman Reginald (Rex) Lingford (1881-1968), right, was one of Salmon Arm’s early commercial photographers, opening a studio above Mrs. McGuire’s old general store in the spring of 1909.

He had come to Salmon Arm on the invitation of his uncle, Charles Ehlers. Salmon Arm was booming and there was opportunity for a trained photographer. Lingford worked alone for a while and with partner WJ Honey, but decided to close the studio for good to answer a greater call.

Rex Lingford was single, 33 years old that year, vaccinated, with a mole on his right collarbone of his right shoulder blade. To make him easily identifiable, his dental records were noted on his attestation papers. He had one silver filling and an upper gold bridge. His complexion was dark, his eyes hazel, and his hair was black. He wasn’t a huge man, 5’ 8.5” tall with a girth of 36.5 inches when his chest was fully expanded, but he was a defender of Crown and country.

“Then one day a military O.C. arrived in town and wanted to raise a military unit or company, heard I was one of the few who had previous military training, would I help?” Lingford’s memoirs record.

Canada was becoming military-wise, Lingford went on to say. The Salmon Arm militiamen were part of a Squadron of the 31st Regiment BC Horse and attended Vernon Military Camp for annual summer training. When Great Britain, France, and Belgium declared war against Germany August 4, 1914, Canada stepped forward.

The orders came, but Lingford was sick. His doctor did not want him to serve, but Rex refused to listen. He rallied and accompanied his troop in training. At camp he failed the medical examination. Again Lingford refused to take no for an answer. The company was ordered to Valcartier, Quebec and Lingford was advised to detrain at

Photo taken by Rex Lingford.

Just a Common Soldier

By A. Lawrence Vaincourt

He was getting old and paunchy and his hair was falling fast, And he sat around the Legion, telling stories of the past.

Of a war that he had fought in and the deeds that he had done, In his exploits with his buddies; they were heroes, every one.

Salmon Arm–advice he didn’t take. A third medical took place in Quebec. Rejection again. When Lingford appealed to a brigade general wearing glasses, Lingford was accepted.

Lingford was gassed at Ypres, and shelled twice afterwards. Was it a miracle that he survived?

“A shell had exploded and the pieces had curved over my body, and wounded a man in the trench below me, not seriously….another foot either way and it would have got me also; I thanked God…” When a German observation balloon was shot down Lingford was injured, hospitalized and evacuated. He recovered from a head wound and rejoined his unit on leave and was forced to sleep in a pigsty. The quarters were clean, but conditions discouraging. Lingford was cheered when he was awarded the Military Medal for Bravery in the Field for his action at Hill 60.

A promotion to the rank of captain and a second award came later, the Military Cross at Paschendaele, Belgium. He was given the decoration for figuring how to prevent the Germans from stealing Allied battlefield communications.

“It seems the enemy was picking up signals by the process of induction, achieved by laying a wire parallel to those of their adversaries.

Lingford hit upon the idea of twisting his lines, and in doing so made induction impossible,” local historian Denis Marshall said in his book Fleeting Images.

But the experience was recorded modestly in Lingford’s memoirs. “When we came out of the line I was complimented by the O.C. and generals; they did not know of my miraculous good luck with the wires!” Lingford reported.

In 1919 Captain Rex Lingford, MC, MM returned home to Salmon Arm to be met by a crowd of people on the platform at the station.

His arrival home was a great cause for celebration. Four years in the trenches–a great service for us all. Photos contributed by the Salmon Arm Museum at R. J. Haney Heritage Village.

And tho’ sometimes, to his neighbours, his tales became a joke, All his Legion buddies listened, for they knew whereof he spoke.

But we’ll hear his tales no longer for old Bill has passed away, And the world’s a little poorer, for a soldier died today.

He will not be mourned by many, just his children and his wife, For he lived an ordinary and quite uneventful life.

Held a job and raised a family, quietly going his own way, And the world won’t note his passing, though a soldier died today.

When politicians leave this earth, their bodies lie in state, While thousands note their passing and proclaim that they were great.

Papers tell their whole life stories, from the time that they were young, But the passing of a soldier goes unnoticed and unsung.

Is the greatest contribution to the welfare of our land A guy who breaks his promises and cons his fellow man?

Or the ordinary fellow who, in times of war and strife, Goes off to serve his Country and offers up his life?

A politician’s stipend and the style in which he lives Are sometimes disproportionate to the service that he gives.

While the ordinary soldier, who offered up his all, Is paid off with a medal and perhaps, a pension small.

It’s so easy to forget them for it was so long ago, That the old Bills of our country went to battle, but we know It was not the politicians, with their compromise and ploys, Who won for us the freedom that our country now enjoys.

Should you find yourself in danger, with your enemies at hand, Would you want a politician with his ever-shifting stand?

Or would you prefer a soldier, who has sworn to defend His home, his kin and country and would fight until the end?

He was just a common soldier and his ranks are growing thin, But his presence should remind us we may need his like again.

For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier’s part Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.

If we cannot do him honour while he’s here to hear the praise, Then at least let’s give him homage at the ending of his days.

Perhaps just a simple headline in a paper that would say, Our country is in mourning, for a soldier died today.

Lakeshore News travels to Symphony honours war memories

Oregon, USA

Maja and Monika Weisinger went on a roadtrip with their parents in July through Washington and Oregon, and saw a variety of landscapes (and seascapes) on their journey. Here they are pictured at the Dee Wright Observatory, constructed with lava stone and situated in the

midst of a large and spectacular lava flow in the Willamette National Forest, in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon.

Maja and Monika receive $10 for having their picture printed, and are entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2014.

SALMON ARM, B.C. – Kamloops Symphony will honour the centennial of the beginning of WWI with their performance Remembering on Sunday, November 16 in Salmon Arm. This will be the first time Kamloops Symphony does a performance of remembrance.

“We believe it is important to acknowledge the sacrifices of those who served in WWI during this 100th anniversary year,” said Kathy Humphreys, general manager at Kamloops Symphony.

“They are remembered.”

This programme includes selections from John Burge’s Flanders Fields Reflections, which is inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields”, written by Canadian John McCrae. Burge’s song received the 2009 Juno Award for Best Canadian Classical Composition. Each movement is titled with a phrase taken from the poem.

This performance will also include the second performance of Canadian composer Michael Conway Baker’s Concerto for Piccolo, Piano and String Orchestra. The world premiere of this

piece will be played in Kamloops the evening before. The piccolo soloist, Jeff Pelletier, is second flute/piccolo with the Kamloops Symphony.

In addition to the Kamloops Symphony, Mr. Pelletier is a flutist with the Vancouver Chamber Players, Ventos Wind Quintet, with the touring ensemble Winter Harp, and performs regularly with the Vancouver Island Symphony.

Also included in this program is British composer Vaughan Williams’ Symphony #3 (Pastoral). It is considered one of his two responses to WWI. Ralph Vaughan Williams was a stretcher-bearer during the war, and stopped composing for the duration of the war.

This Salmon Arm Series performance will be at the Salmon Arm Recreation Centre on Sunday, November 16 at 2:00 p.m. Buy tickets at the door, at Kamloops Live! Box Office: 250-3745483 or 1-866-374-5483, or online at www. kamloopslive.ca. Tickets for the Salmon Arm performance are also available at Wearabouts in Salmon Arm (350 Alexander St NE).

BC Hydro warns about telephone scam

VANCOUVER – Fraudsters posing as BC Hydro employees continue to contact customers across British Columbia by telephone in an attempt to steal money from residents and small businesses – particularly restaurants.

BC Hydro initially warned customers of the scam in early September. Since then, more customers have come forward with additional details. According to reports, the fraudulent calls may come from a 1-800 phone number. The customer’s call display may show BC Hydro or display a legitimate BC Hydro phone number.

This is done through “spoofing.”

The caller demands immediate payment to avoid disconnection and suggests the customer purchase a cash gift card and call back to provide the serial number on the back of the card.

BC Hydro is reminding customers that it does not collect credit card or bank account information over the telephone and BC Hydro does not take payment from cash gift cards. Customers are also reminded that if they receive a call from someone representing BC Hydro and they doubt the authenticity of the call, they should hang up and call back BC Hydro at 1-800-BCHYDRO or

1-800-224-9376.

If an account is in arrears, BC Hydro will send several notices through the mail asking for payment and also use an automated dialer to remind customers to make a payment before electricity supply is impacted. Customers can check their account status online through bchydro.com.

BC Hydro customers are asked to report these calls by calling 1-800-BC-HYDRO, their local police department and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.

The Salmon Arm and Shuswap Lake Agricultural Association appreciates the generous donation from the Salmon Arm 4-H District Council. Cheryl Johnson, President of the local 4-H Council, presented the cheque to General Manager Dan Brock on behalf of the Board of Directors. The “West Ring” at the fair grounds has been upgraded to provide a new sound area for equestrian and other events that

make use of the ring. 4-H horse club activities, Southern Interior Dressage Association, barrel racers, dog agility displays, competitions and demonstrations as well as Roots and Blues entertainers all use the ring. Through donations to projects on the fairgrounds, many groups benefit from the well maintained and upgraded areas. Photo contributed.

Do you find yourself reaching for a can of soda or a cup of coffee during the day to banish fatigue? Many do.

But you may want to grab a bottle of water instead.

Research indicates that lack of water is the No. 1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Therefore, not only can drinking adequate supplies of water keep you refreshed, it can also help to keep you more awake — even during a boring business meeting.
