Two quads stolen from Cross Road area
FOR THE TOWNSMAN
On Monday, January 12, 2015, Cranbrook RCMP received a call of two quads stolen from the Cross Road area of Cranbrook. One of the quads is a red, 2007 Yamaha Kodiak 450cc.
This quad has a homemade brown plywood box with a back rest attached. The second quad is a camo coloured Yamaha Kodiak 450cc. This quad has a custom made metal silencer welded to the factory
muffler. Both quads were stolen overnight from two separate residences. A dark coloured pick up truck towing an empty trailer was seen earlier in the evening and a vehicle was heard running
near the roadway at around midnight. Cranbrook RCMP is asking anyone with any information about these quad thefts to call the Cranbrook Detachment at 250-489-3471 or Crimestoppers.
It’s a new year and now that the 2014 calendar has rolled over, there is a new board of directors for the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce. Heading up the executive branch of the board is Dave Struthers, with Chris Thom serving as vice president. Chris Botterill takes on second vice president duties, while Jeanette Sissons will serve as treasurer. As past president, Dave Butler will still have a presence in the organization. Nicole Anker, Brian Rhodes, Brenna Baker, Carrie Schafer, Heather Jackson, Igor Gallyamov, Jane Campbell, Jason Fast, Joey Hoechsmann and Ryan Gibbard will all serve as directors on the Chamber board. Chamber members will get a chance to see the new executive and board at the inaugural meeting on
Jan. 23 at the Heritage Inn. However, the event is more than just the unveiling of the new board as the Chamber will also present the Citizen of the Year award to Derek Kortschaga, who captured the nomination in December. Looking ahead, the Chamber is working on keeping and expanding membership under the direction of newcomer David Hull, who took over the executive director position vacated by Karin Penner, who recently retired after 31 years with the organization. “We’re working quite diligently right now—the staff is—we’re looking at all the things the Chamber does, making sure it’s what we want to do and provide the best value to our members,” said Hull.

be compared to any other theater work, because its purpose is so different. Two dilapidated bums fill their days as painlessly as they can. They wait for Godot, a personage who will explain their interminable insignificance, or put an end to it. They are resourceful, with quarrels and their dependence on each other, as children are. They pass the time ‘which would have passed anyway.’ A brutal man of means comes by, leading a weakling slave who does his bidding like a mechanical doll. Later on he comes back, blind, and his slave is mute, but the relationship is unchanged. Every day a child comes from the unknown Godot, and evasively puts the big arrival off until tomorrow…It is a tragic view. Yet, in performance, most of it is brilliant, bitter comedy…It is a portrait of the dogged resilience of a man’s spirit in the face of little hope.”

Kimberley nordic skier representing Canada at Worlds in Kazahkstan Arne Petryshen
A Kimberley Nordic Club skier has been chosen not only to represent BC at the Canada Winter Games, but also to represent Canada in Kazahkstan at World Under-23 Championships. That skier is Colin Ferrie from Kimberley. From Feb. 1-8, Ferrie will be in the Eastern European country of Kazahkstan. Ferrie was in Collingwood, Ontario, this past weekend, where he’d just competed in the U-23 Trials. On Jan. 8, Ferrie competed in the 30 km skiathlon (15 km classic followed by a 15 km skate) and came in fifth over-
all, but second in the U-23 standing. “That was a mass start so I stuck with the pack most of the way, and people were eventually dropping off, but I stuck with the leaders for most of it and finished fifth in the open category,” he said. In terms of the Classic Sprint, Ferrie did just the qualifying round, and not the heats, to save his energy for the 15 km skate. In the skate on Sunday, Ferrie was again second in the U-23 category. “That qualified me for a spot on the Under-23 Canadian Team to go Worlds in Kazahkstan,” Ferrie said. On Tuesday he was on his
way back across the country in preparation for a competition in Canmore this weekend. Shortly after that he will fly out for the competition in Kazahkstan, which takes place Feb. 1-8. He said he is looking forward to it. “It will be really interesting to see how I compare against the world’s best under-23 skiers,” he said. “It will be my first time racing overseas.” He added one of his teammates trained in Europe. “So hopefully I can pick up some advice from him.” Later in February he is headed to the Canada Winter Games in Prince George.
There he will be joined by Kimberley Nordic Club teammate Molly Miller. It will be Miller’s first Games and Ferrie said she has the potential to go to two more down the road. “It’s phenomenal,” he said. Ferrie wanted to thank the Kimberley Nordic Club, as well as the Black Jack Nordic Club in Rossland as well. Colin trains in Rossland. Two of his Black Jack teammates, David Palmer and Julien Locke were also selected to Team BC. All three are in their second year racing in the Open Men’s category which pits them against against Olympians and members of Canada’s National team.
B.C. prisons crowded, unsafe, auditor general says C anadian Press
VICTORIA - British Columbia’s prisons are overcrowded, tension-filled facilities that do little to prevent inmates from returning to crime when released. That’s the conclusion of a report by auditor general Carol Bellringer who is recommending changes to provincial adult
custody facilities and the programs they run. Bellringer calls on the government to develop and implement a performance framework that includes goals and targets to achieve safe and secure prisons that reduce criminal behaviour. The audit says B.C. jails, which held 16,000 people last year, are operating at 140 per
cent capacity, with more than half of the inmates sharing cells meant for one person. The auditor says provincial jails succeed in providing accommodation for inmates, but little else because only one in five programs offered has been shown to cuts repeat offences. The audit says jails will remain overcrowded despite the
addition of 800 new cells at the Surrey pre-trial centre and a new facility in the Okanagan. Late last year, Liberal backbencher Laurie Throness completed a report that recommended jails introduce more apprenticeship training programs in order to offer inmates skills they can use to find work once they are released.
The cold spell of late is about to take a turn over the weekend as the weather forecast calls for highs of up to +5. Lisa Coldwells, meteorologist with Environment Canada, noted that the Cranbrook area has been in the modified Arctic air. “So very typical sort of temperatures for this past week or so. Daytime highs are about -3 and overnight lows dipping down to about -10, -12.” She said there was not much in the way of precipitation, but mixes of sun and cloud. “That’s going to continue until the end of this week,” she said. “There might not be as many sunny breaks, and you might be in the cloudy end of things if you’re right in town.” But she said head up to the ski hill in Kimberley or Fernie and you can bask in the sunshine of the low clouds. Over the weekend she did see a change coming. “The weather pattern that has been a broadscale upper ridge, which gives a very cold, very
benign weather will change,” she said. It is going to be changing as a low comes in off the Pacific. “That will allow the Pacific weather storms to move in quite quickly, of course most of the precipitation happens on the coast as rain, but as these systems skip across the mountains there is a chance of having some light snow activity on the Friday night, into the Saturday morning,” she said, adding that she doubted it would be much more than a few centimetres. The system will also bring in more warm air as they pass over the mountain ranges to get here. “By the time they are moving through, they allow the warmer air to come down to the surface. So daytime highs are going to actually start to rise and we’ll see daytime highs of about +5 over the weekend.” Overnight she say temperatures would still dip down below -5. That milder weather will continue on into next week. “It’s warm, but not record warm,” she said.

Chamber of Commerce launches into 2015 Continued from page 1 “We’re really focused on going back to our roots and being a member-based organization. As a professional business organization of choice, we’re always looking to represent our members and to vigorously promote and defend trade and commerce in the area. “To that end, we’re having a strategic planning session with the board and a facilitator in a couple weeks and that’ll set our direction for 2015 and a fair bit of 2016.” Just two weeks into the job, Hull has six years of experience as executive director of the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce and worked for 12 years in management consulting. “This Chamber has a storied reputation among what I call ‘Chamberland’ to be a real well-run Chamber,” said Hull. “Certainly Karin Penner has laid a foundation for me that is second to none. All I need to do is take her good work and keep building on top of that.” Right now, the Chamber has a
membership of roughly 475, with 500 being the goal, according to Hull. Smaller towns tend to have a larger percentage of chamber membership as opposed to larger cities, he added. A basic measurement is looking at the number of memberships versus the number of business licences. “We’re at about the 27-28 per cent mark of business licenses, which is good,” Hull said. “It’s not where I want it to be, but it’s a good start.” Attracting new memberships is always a goal, but Hull is looking at putting a retention plan together to make sure existing members remain within the fold. “That’s really going to be our focus in 2015 is retention, and we’re going to do that by communication. We do provide relevancy to members but we’re not really good—this is we the collective Chamber movement— we’re not really good at having our message out there and our good work well-known.”

Birders gather in the Platzl for the Kimberley Christmas Bird Count. From left: Greg, Kevin, Dianne, Laura, Daryl, Frank, Virginia, Phil, Mike and Sue.
Results of the Kimberley Bird Count Daryl C alder
Kimberley and area residents probably wondered what we were doing on the first Sunday of January. Ten of us, from Cranbrook, Fernie, Ta Ta Creek and Kimberley, were searching for wild birds because of the 115th annual Christmas Bird Count. Our area, the standard sized 24 kilometer diameter circle, is centered at the junction of Highway 95A and the Lost Dog Ranch Road. The circle includes many of the diverse habitats which characterize this part of the Rocky Mountain Trench. The edges of the circle provide some of the best spots for birding; the St Mary River near Mark Creek, the Wycliffe-Clearview grasslands, Wasa Lake and Wolf Creek feeders, Ta Ta Creek woodlands and the urban areas of Kimberley and Marysville. We formed 4 groups to tackle the 4 quadrants as thoroughly as possible during the 9-5 p.m. session. It was cool, calm and grey, and at times it seemed that birds were scarce. Always on the lookout for surprises, we knew from experience that there would be ups and downs. An unexpected flock of Wild Turkeys or an American Robin perched on a spruce tip buoyed our spirits. The American Goldfinch is a lovely creature indeed! During the winter, the male goldfinches are dull in color, like the females, and look like small, yellowish sparrows. They are gregarious, being found in small or medium-sized flocks. When spring arrives, the goldfinches move northward, but this time, the males have their bright lemon-yellow color, with black wings and tail, and black caps on their heads. The females remain dull in color, for natural protection. Except during the nesting season, it is a sociable bird that seeks it’s own kind with which to feed and fly. In winter, it mingles with its relatives – the redpolls and siskins – feeding in weedy fields and in orchards close to wooded areas. You’d think these would be among our first birds to nest, but actually they are some of the last! The reason is because of thistles. They use the thistle down to line their pretty nests and thistle seeds to feed their young. One might easily learn a lesson in patience
from the goldfinches, waiting patiently for the indispensible thistle, while seeing all the other birds on every side going ahead with the excitement of building their nests and raising their broods. When nesting season arrives, the female selects a small tree or the outstretched branch of a larger tree. The tree may be in an open field, often along a brook, or along the edge of woods overlooking a field. She builds a neat cup of felted plant fibers and silvery milkweed bark lined with thistle down. The nest is similar to those of various warblers, but differs from them in being wider than it is tall. Altogether it is a beautiful work of art, woven so tightly that it can hold water. Usually the nest is shaded by clusters of leaves or needles from above, but often open and visible from below. Flying high in wide circles around the tree chosen for the nesting site, the male, upon alighting nearby, proceeds to pour forth his sweet canary-like song to the busily engaged female. She answers with a plaintive little phrase which has an indescribable charm. Seven days are required in which to finish the nest, and then the 5 or 6 pale blue unspotted eggs are laid, one a day. The male feeds the female on the nest while she is setting, and when receiving food she flutters her wings like a young bird. Goldfinches delight in bathing in rocky creeks and small streams where the water is shallow. They are exceptionally clean in all their ways. Curiously, Brown-headed Cowbirds lay their eggs in the nests of smaller songbirds like the goldfinch. However, this finch’s seed diet is insufficient to meet the demands of the growing cowbird young, most of which die within three days as a result. The presence of the cowbird does disrupt successful nesting. Breeding bird surveys suggest that populations are stable or decreasing at about four per cent per year. Decreasing amounts of breeding habitat resulting from changing agricultural practices, and the expansion of urban centers, may be contributing to this decline. The Christmas Bird Count indicates an increase in the overwintering population of
American Goldfinches. The results of the breeding bird surveys and the CBC are not necessarily contradictory. Increases in the overwintering population may be due to an increase in the number of bird feeders, while the total population may be declining. To understand these population changes, monitoring and study of the factors affecting populations are essential.

KIMBERLEY AND CRANBROOK COMMUNITY CALENDAR
UPCOMING

Mount Baker Wild Theatre is presenting “The Drowsy Chaperone” in May — a parody of American musical comedy of the 1920s. The story concerns a middle-aged, asocial musical theatre fan; as he plays the record of his favorite musical, the (fictional) 1928 hit The Drowsy Chaperone, the show comes to life onstage as he wryly comments on the music, story, and actors.
Are you feeling drowsy this winter?
Mount Baker Wild Theatre presenting a musical romp set in the 1920s to light up the spring Carter Gulseth
Hello. How are we today? A little quiet? Maybe a little blue? Well it’s time for a treat! Why not disappear into the decadent world of the 1920s? A time when the champagne flowed while the caviar chilled, and all the world was a party. This is the world of The Drowsy Chaperone! First premiering in Toronto’s The Rivoli, Drowsy is the latest Key City-bound production for Mount Baker Wild Theatre. The show, which opened on Broadway in 2006,
was a fantastic smash, taking away five Tony awards, including those for best book and best score. After last season’s Urinetown the Musical, Chaperone is bound to resonate with a little more traditional musical magic; there will sadly, however, be very few jokes regarding Urine. Hail Malthus. The show will be helmed by Bethany Turcon, who is taking a first run at the Wild Theatre oeuvre. Musical direction will be seen over by Stephanie Tischauer and Evan
Bueckert, another newcomer to the Wild family. Returning from last seasons Urinetown is Toronto-based choreographer Siona Jackson. We thank her for making the flight on Air Canada; the woman’s a trooper. Carter Gulseth leads the cast as the Man in Chair. Playing opposite him, as Janet Van de Graaf and Robert Martin, are Emily Bohmer and Dawson Rutledge, respectively. The cast is rounded out by Madison Lee as the titular Chaperone and Andrew
Schubert as the almost-sensual Aldolfo. The show is a tip of the hat to a time when the musical theatre was about a story, a few good songs, and as many spit-takes as one person can handle. It is a rollicking good time, a romp, and an opportunity to kick up your heels. The Drowsy Chaperone runs at the Key City Theatre from May 7 to May 9 at 7:30 p.m. and May 10 at 2 p.m., and will have you on our feet before the curtain has a chance to hit the stage.

That’s how new you’d have to be to believe that the press has no interest in the private lives of politicians.

At the same press conference last week where Atwell admitted the untruthiness (tm Stephen Colbert) of his denials, he also said city staff were instructed to place spyware on his computers and the Saanich police department has been harassing him. He wonders how the December 3 incident reached the press. I’m about to shatter his world-view further — the press has scanners. The plot thickens.

Nomad Nelson
Newest Nitro netminder leads Kimberley to victory Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
Goaltender Brody Nelson has been a bit of a nomad to this point in the 2014-15 KIJHL season. After a trade from the Kamloops Storm brought him to the Kimberley Dynamiters, he finds himself back at home in the East Kootenay. Tuesday night, Nelson’s journey continued at the Kimberley Civic Centre where he steered aside 30 shots, leading his new club to a 3-1 victory over the Creston Valley Thunder Cats. “It’s definitely been an adventure this season,” Nelson said after earning his first victory as a Nitro. “It’s not something I’ve been used to through the first two years of my career. “Going to different teams has been a good experience and I’m definitely happy to end up here [in Kimberley].” Nelson, a native of Invermere, spent his first two seasons in the KIJHL with his hometown club, the Columbia Valley Rockies. The 6-foot-1, 180pound puck-stopper began his third KIJHL season with the Rockies, going 3-14-0 with a 4.06 goals-against average (GAA) and 0.879 save percentage (SP) before being dealt to the Kamloops Storm in December. From there, he saw six games of action in the Doug Birks Division, going 4-2-0 with a 2.20 GAA, 0.912 SP and two
shutouts. If those numbers and Nelson’s performance Tuesday night are any indication, head coach Jerry Bancks wasn’t just blowing hot air when he said he felt his club had stolen Nelson from Kamloops in exchange for future considerations. “He settled right in,” Bancks said of his new goaltender. “I thought he stole the game for us in the first period. For Nelson, the end result was worth smiling about, though his night didn’t get off to the smoothest of starts as Thunder Cats leading scorer Carson Cartwright victimized the newest Nitro netminder 47 seconds into the affair. “It didn’t start off the way I wanted it to,” Nelson said with a laugh. “Everything after that just rolled on and it was a good experience.” After Cartwright’s opening tally, Nelson weathered pressure from the visitors before Sawyer Hunt, who returned from injury Tuesday, deposited a Jordan Roy pass into a gaping cage to tie the game before the end of the first period. For Hunt, it was his first game back since suffering an upper-body injury Dec. 5 in Creston. Captain Jason Richter tallied his 33rd goal of the season, a power-play marker in the second period, to give the Nitros the lead and pull himself within one point of Fernie Ghostrid-
ers forward Doan Smith (29G-24A-53Pts) for the KIJHL scoring lead. Defenceman James Jowsey rounded out the scoring, tallying the insurance marker midway through the third period. Recently-signed blue-liner Justin Meier, also making his Dynamiter debut Tuesday, earned an assist on Jowsey’s goal. But his true impact was felt with a crushing hit on Thunder Cats forward Mason Mazur earlier in the second period. “It was good to get the first one out of the way,” Meier said with a laugh. “It felt good. “I like to bring a physical presence to my game.” The native of Taber, Alta., shook the Civic Centre as he caught Mazur cutting through the slot with his head down. The heavy hit is something there hasn’t been much of in Kimberley this season, with a team built around speed and skill. “He’s exactly what we needed,” Bancks said of Meier. “He’s going to have to rein himself in a bit, but I like the fact he is hard-nosed. We knew he’d be hard to play against and I really like having that back there [on the blue-line].” Meier finished the night with 16 penalty minutes, including a 10-minute misconduct that accompanied a two-minute minor penalty for head contact. He acknowledged he hopes to keep those numbers

Kimberley Dynamiters goaltender Brody Nelson (#33), recently acquired from the Kamloops Storm, made his debut Tuesday, leading the Nitros to a 3-1 win over the Creston Valley Thunder Cats. down moving forward. Nelson’s arrival stands to provide a bit of competition for Dynamiters workhorse Tyson Brouwer, who has seen action in 31 of his team’s 41 games this season. “We’re right where we want to be. We’ve got a good goaltending tandem [with Brouwer and Nelson] and now they need to push each other,” Bancks said. “It’s got to be competitive. That’s exactly what we want. They’re both competitive kids. It’s great. I think it’s very healthy.” With the Dynamiters victory, the see-saw battle for second place in the Eddie Mountain Division wore on, with Kimberley vaulting over Creston Valley once again. As of Tuesday night, the Nitros (22-151-3, 48 points) sit one point ahead of the Thunder Cats (21-14-1-4, 47) and 11 back of the first-
place Fernie Ghostriders (28-9-1-2, 59) who fell to the fifth-place Columbia Valley Rockies (8-26-0-6, 22) in Invermere by a final score of 5-3. The Golden Rockets (20-160-5, 45) remain in the

Kootenay Ice visit Moose Jaw Warriors in first of three games in Saskatchewan The Kootenay Ice open a three-game road trip through the Land of Living Skies with a Wednesday-night contest against the Moose Jaw Warriors. Having dropped three consecutive games and fallen back in the WHL’s Central Division race, the Ice are looking to rekindle an approach that made them one of the WHL’s top teams from Nov. 1 through Jan. 3. That stretch saw the
things going again.” The last time these two teams met, a six-goal third period powered the Kootenay Ice to a comefrom-behind 7-3 victory over the Moose Jaw Warriors Nov. 23 at Western Financial Place. Ice forwards Levi Cable and Jaedon Descheneau tallied two goals apiece to help pace the hosts, while Wyatt Hoflin batted away 31 pucks for the victory. Puck drop is set for 6 p.m. (MT).

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My daughter and her husband are using a surrogate to have a baby. What do I do about a shower when someone else is carrying their child? It is my daughter’s first child, and she and her husband are in their late 40s. Should I make the shower for them as a couple? Does she not get a shower because someone else is actually pregnant with the child? I have no idea what is proper here. Please help. -Grandma-To-Be Dear Grandma: It doesn’t matter who is carrying the child. Any new mother -- and your daughter will be one -- is entitled to a baby shower if someone wants to host one. Of course, it is better if the shower is given by friends and not immediate family, but these days few people pay attention to those rules. Couples showers have become more popular, since both Mom and Dad (presumably) are raising this child. Whether you do that or not is entirely your choice. Congratulations. Dear Annie: I would like to know why frail, elderly people get to “choose to stay in their home” while the rest of the family runs in circles trying to meet their needs. This is like asking a 2-year-old whether he wants to eat broccoli. My husband and I were stressed out and exhausted trying to care for our parents because they wouldn’t leave their home. We all work full-time, so we took turns making sure they were OK in their old house. No one could get a night’s rest, because the folks were up and down all night opening doors, turning on lights and once, even using the oven and going outside. People are living longer, and when severe physical frailty or dementia sets in, the family suffers. Not only is there the stress of caregiving, but also there is resentment that they refuse to be more helpful and cooperative about their living arrangements. I think some of this stress can lead to elder abuse. Why can’t family and social workers sign these folks up for assisted living? I understand personal freedom, but where is the freedom for the rest of the family? -- Still Stressed Out Dear Stressed: Seniors who are still capable of making sound decisions should look into continuing care facilities that allow them to live independently until they are no longer able to do so, and then will transfer them to assisted living or nursing home care. These are not always pleasant choices to contemplate, but the alternative often turns out to be misery for everyone. And once a parent has dementia, it becomes both difficult and debilitating to remove them from familiar surroundings. Those who are adamant about remaining in their own homes should check out whether it is safe. Most people do not remain in perfect health and then suddenly drop dead. Does your home have stairs? Safety bars in the bathroom? Will you someday need to pay for a caregiver? If you become widowed, will the loneliness cause you to decline? At some point, each of us must decide whether staying in our home is truly the best decision, and how fair we are being to our loved ones. Dear Annie: “Getting It off My Chest” moved out of state and is upset about relatives not visiting them. Here’s the other side of the story. Our family members also moved away. They expect us to travel because we are retired and they are working. By the time we visit four different states, we can’t afford trips to any other locations. Maybe “Getting” should look at how selfish they are. Their area may be beautiful, but how many times can we see it before it becomes boring? No one owes them a visit just because they didn’t like cold winters or sticky summers. -- Burned Out Travelers Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Teresa was a very strong and independent woman, a loving wife, sister, aunt and friend. She would do anything to help someone out. We will miss her dearly. Teresa leaves to mourn her passing her siblings: Aldo (Norma) Sherbo, Angela (Slim) Piccini, Marcella Tironese, Ceasar Sherbo, Lina (Andrew) Scarittino, and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband Frank Trozzo, her parents Frank and Maria Sherbo, her sister and brotherin-law Jenny and Joe Piccini, and her brother Joe Sherbo, his first wife Blanche and his second wife Helene. We would like to thank the staff at Joseph Creek for the wonderful care and kindness shown to Teresa while she lived there. Thank you to the nurses on the third floor for your care and compassion. Dr. Andy, thank you for everything you did to make Teresa comfortable. Rosary & Prayers for Teresa will be held at 7:00 pm on Friday, January 16, 2015 at St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic Church, (39 - 10th Avenue South), in Cranbrook. Her Funeral Mass will be held on Saturday, January 17, 2015 at 12:00 pm at St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic Church in Cranbrook. Teresaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interment will follow in the Catholic Cemetery in Cranbrook. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the charity of your choice. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

If you’re thinking of selling – NOW is the time!
It’s a
for all!
List your home or property with One of our Outstanding Agents between January 1st and February 28th, 2015... THAT WILL BE YOUR 1st BIG
and then – all new listings will be entered into a draw – all sellers will have a chance to
this 43” 4500 Series Premium HD Plasma TV!! For greater image contrast, the Real Black Filter suppresses the amount of external light reflected on screen. The result is improved image contrast when viewing in bright conditions. With minimal reflection, images appear clean, crisp and distraction free. Take advantage of an extra inch of screen size with Samsung’s Plasma +1” design featuring a thinner bezel. The added inch to the screen means we removed an inch from the frame, so there’s less around the TV to distract you.
Each office independently owned and operated.
