The Family Fishing Derby has grown from a small get-together to a family event attracting people from Cranbrook, Creston, Fernie, Golden, Invermere, Jaffray, Kimberley and Trail. This year’s sixth Annual Family Fishing Derby is scheduled for the BC Family Day weekend on February 9, 2015.
Family Fishing Kimberley Winter Market Derby coming on Family Day weekend C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
The Alberta Family Day weekend — this year February 14, 15, 16 — is always a busy one in Kimberley as our neighbours from across the Rockies take to the slopes at Kimberley Alpine Resort. A couple of years ago, staff at the Kimberley Conference and Athlete Training Centre realized that with that many visitors in town, it might be a very good opportunity to showcase local businesses and vendors, as well as the conference centre itself. Thus, the Kimberley Winter Market was born.
For its third rendition on Sunday, February 15, the market will present a variety of offerings from local merchants and some from further afield. “We are already over 50 per cent full,” said Meta Yee-Lim from the Conference Centre. “The deadline for exhibit applications is February 2 and we may be full before then.” Admission to the Market is free and there’s even a room for the kids so you can shop as long as you like. “With 60 vendors there is a lot for everybody,” Yee-Lim said. “Last year over a thousand people came through.”

the Kimberley Conference Centre will host the third annual Winter Market on February 15. Vendor application forms are available at meetkimberley.ca
The Market opens at noon and runs to 5 p.m. on Sunday, February 15.
The annual Family Fishing Derby at Horseshoe Lake has grown a great deal in the past five years, so much so that organization of the event has been passed over to JCI Kootenay (Junior Chamber International). JCI member and 2015 Family Fishing Derby Event Chair Mike Matejka explains: “JCI Kootenay is always looking for ways to make a difference in our community and when we heard the Fishing Derby needed help we jumped at the opportunity. The past organizers created something truly amazing and we want to do our best to
continue that legacy.” “Over the years, this event has grown and evolved, so after five years it is being passed to JCI,” said Jenny Byford, who is helping with organization. “It began at a grassroots level with one Cranbrook family who were touched by cancer and wanted to make a difference. But it’s grown so big that it can’t continue to be organized as it was, so it was passed to JCI. But it will continue to be a family event, focused on fund raising to support families with children with cancer.” Proceeds are distributed by the Canadian Cancer Society to help families with financial support, travelling to treatment, accommodation, wigs, cancer information and peer support.

A rocky year ahead for B.C. mining Tom Fletcher Black Press
B.C.’s mining industry heads into 2015 with slumping commodity prices, closures and layoffs at coal operations and efforts to continue recovery from B.C.’s worst mine-related structural failure. Imperial Metals applied last week to restart the Mount Polley copper-gold mine near Williams Lake, to produce about half the ore it did
before its tailings dam abruptly failed in August 2014. The company’s Red Chris copper-gold mine in northwestern B.C. is up and running, but facing a six-year low in the world price of copper. Coal mines in the Kootenays, a mainstay of the B.C. industry, remain in production, but slower growth in Asia and a low metallurgical coal price forced Anglo American Coal and Wal-
ter Energy to shut down mines at the northeast coal hub of Tumbler Ridge last fall. Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett heads for the Association for Mineral Exploration B.C. conference in Vancouver Jan. 26-29. He said in an interview last week the price of copper has dipped to a level where there is concern about layoffs at metal mines, but the current “bear market” is less of a

concern for mineral exploration, with mineral discoveries taking years to develop. Taseko Mines confirmed Monday it is reducing its workforce at the Gibraltar Mine near Williams Lake by nearly 50 positions due to the price of copper. Premier Christy Clark’s jobs plan set a target of eight new mines and nine expansions by the end of 2015. Since 2011, startups include Copper Mountain near Princeton, New Afton near Kamloops, Mount Milligan west of Prince George, Bonanza Ledge near Quesnel and Yellow Giant on Banks Island near Prince Rupert. Last week Environment Minister Mary Polak issued two fiveyear mine permit extensions to keep alive projects facing opposition from local aboriginal communities.
Black Press files
Gibraltar Mine in the B.C. Interior has announced layoffs as a result of the decline in the price of copper. One was for the Tulsequah Chief mine project near Atlin, determined to have been “substantially started” with site work after a long legal battle with the Taku River Tlingit First Nation. The other extension is for the Taseko’s New Prosperity copper-gold project near Williams Lake, which has twice
been rejected by the federal government due to environmental concerns over acid rock contamination. The Tsilhqot’in Nation remains adamantly opposed to the open-pit proposal. Bennett said both companies and the government need to continue talks about revenue sharing and impacts with affected aboriginal

Kimberley FOCUS is always there to assist a resident when they experience medical expenses or other hardships. This past December, FOCUS members Noweata Schofer and Cody Waugh were happy to present $500 to Dan Walters. FOCUS raises funds at Thursday meat draws at the Elks Club and gratefully acknowledges the assistance of Kimberley Overwaitea.
Family Fishing Derby From page 1 Thanks to the generous support of local businesses, the Derby also helps local children facing cancer enjoy a much deserved vacation from treatment. Dacota Freight sponsors a Disneyland vacation and Sunshine Houseboats sponsors a houseboat vacation on Lake Koocanusa. Children facing cancer from all across the Kootenay region will be entered into a draw for these two trips. To ensure your family is entered, please contact the event organizers. Dubbed ‘uniquely ‘Kootenay’, by organizers, this event keeps the
whole family entertained with ice fishing, tobogganing, hockey, and plenty of kids’ games including snow painting, tug-o-war and ice jug bowling. There are also contests for Best Dressed Dog and Best Dressed Toboggan, as well as door prizes, a 50/50 draw and silent auction. In past years over 1800 people have participated for top prizes valued at $2,000 and to show their support for local families in need. In past years, there have been some occasions when warm January weather created unsafe ice conditions, but Byford says that isn’t a
problem this year. “There is plenty of ice on Horseshoe Lake this year, but we do constantly monitor to make sure it will be safe,” she said. Tickets for the Family Fishing Derby are available in Kimberley at Overwaitea Foods, Sun Life Financial, and Home Hardware in the Platzl or online at https://eastkootenay. snapd.com. Tickets are just $10 for adults and $5 for children and seniors. Everyone needs a ticket to participate in the event. We hope to see you Family Day at Horseshoe Lake!
City council took first steps this week towards implementing the wishes of the electorate as expressed in last December’s dog control bylaw by instructing city clerk Don Torgeson to proceed with drawing up a covering bylaw. Just what “control” means and how it will be enforced will be hammered out when council gets down to actual “readings” of the discussion Tuesday night that there is a divergence of opinion as to how far control should go. One thing is certain. Former dog license fees $5 for a male and $10 for a female – will be cut considerably, aldermen agreeing that they could not very well exact a hefty license fee and still order dogs to be kept under control. Alderman Mark Beduz and S.L. Loraas led the way in the argument that “control” means just that – control at all times. Aldermen Pete Brennan and Mrs. Burrin weren’t quite so sure. For one thing, they wanted to know how the measure would be enforced. “That’s quite simple,” said Ald. Beduz. “If a dog’s at large, out of the control of the owner, pick it up. The owner would pay a
fee for its return and if not claimed in 72 hours, it would be destroyed.” But, chorused the middle-way proponents, that means a dog catcher, and a dog pound. If that’s what our people want, that’s what they’ll get was the gist of the rejoinder. Ald. Loraas spoke of the number of times he’s had to chase dogs from his lawns and shrubberies where they have been happily digging and scratching. He failed to detect Ald. Brennan’s booby trap for Brennan came back quickly with: “That only proves dogs are good for gardens since you’ve got the best lawn in Kimberley.” “I fertilize it,” said Ald. Loraas As matters now stand, Mr. Torgeson must prepare a legally worded bylaw which is sure to get a thorough going ver when it comes up for discussion at the next meeting of council.
Victoria Issues Letters Patent
After months of nail-chewing inactivity,
POLL WEEK of the
the new hospital Action Committee has received Letters Patent from the provincial government. These Letters Patent, issued through the Water Rights branch, have somewhat similar effect to a charter and the way is now clear for the formal and legal establishment of the Selkirk Hospital Improvement District. The Improvement District would take in the area encompassed by School District No.3 with the exception of the City of Kimberley but embracing the villages of Chapman Camp and Marysville. It will be remembered that a public meeting was called in November 1954 at which strong support was forthcoming for a project to replace Kimberley’s present obsolete hospital with a new structure costing in the neighbourhood of $1,250,000. But in order that a fair and equitable means of sharing the cost of such a building might be found, it was decided that a Hospital Improvement District, by means of which rural property owners
would take in their share, should be formed. Application was made to the provincial government and the necessary steps were taken. But these proved to be long and tedious involving contact, either personally or by registered mail, with every registered land-owner in the rural area. As some of these were far distant, delays were inevitable. But where it was possible to make personal contact, this was done and a highly encouraging response was forthcoming. Signatures to the petition requesting the government to set up a Hospital Improvement District were obtained at a ratio of better than nine to one in favour. Although well over the required 70 per cent in favour signed the petition, the government insisted that all registered land owners be approached. This took many months of searching and letter-writing before authorities were satisfied.

When life comes hobbling to a halt “Peter Warland: raised without hormones or steroids.”
It
is extremely difficult to remain footloose and fancy free when you have a sore spot on your foot. I was contemplating this serious business as the nurse examined the nasty corn on the pinky of my left foot and all sorts of very important thoughts came to my head. I recalled that my mother used to have corns and I used to think, ‘so what?’ but now I am suffering the same indignity it is much more serious. I can’t get my foot into the favourite walking boots without considerable pain and this is bringing my life to a grinding — hobbling anyway — halt. So there I was like that Greek statue called Lo spinario, the thorn, later copied by the Romans and imprinted on my memory – but more sedately clad and with a face more like one of those Olmec statues from Mexico – having footling thoughts. Probably, my most favourite pastime is being afoot in the mountains with my charming, slightly younger friends, who pretend that I can keep up with the cracking pace they go. Way back before Napoleon messed about
and insisted on using the metric system, a foot was a foot, not 30.48 centimetres. It made sense, but, I don’t wish to put my foot into the metric system. Centimetres are fine for someone who wants to get picky, in woodwork, for example. But you can’t toss centimetres around the way you can with a foot. In school, way back, my teachers were maundering on about a foot in music and poetry, something else I didn’t understand, but a few (weird) pupils pretended Peter they knew what was going on. Warland Foot — it is such a handy expression. Even before my foot was a true foot long, places like Downton Abbey had footmen to look after the lords and ladies, wait on them hand and foot. We didn’t. We didn’t even have carriages or clunky cars. We had to ‘foot it’ on footways and we played football, a game that actually involved kicking a ball with a foot, unless we lost our footing. Having little money in order to foot our bills, we were not harassed by footpads either. But some of us, like my mother, had corns on one foot or the other and now I am similarly afflicted. Being already as old as Methusela, having to totter about because of the corn on my left foot is an embarrassment. Elderly ladies come to help me, or at least offer to help. They see
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
an old man limping lamely about an airport or store, they come traipsing over, hot foot, to see what they can do to help and I lamely apologize for the inconvenience then shoo them away. This may sound corny to those who haven’t been paying attention but not only do I have a sore foot but my 20-year-old pick-up has also grown tired and lame and I may have to find a back alley somewhere and see if I can get the vehicle up there some dark night and shoot it. So, meanwhile I have to find a substitute and this means hobbling bravely into several car-sales establishments. In one of these places I discovered the vehicle which temporarily attracted my jaundiced eye but, unfortunately for him, the ardent salesman offered me his help and held my arm when I attempted to climb into the driving seat. Offended, I stomped out of the place; elderly ladies helping me is just fine, fun even, but another man! Miffed, I went elsewhere and put my descendants into penury with a very expensive vehicle then hot-footed it to the sanctuary of my pied-a-terre where my wise-acre neighbour explained to me why, at my great age, I should suddenly have developed my first corn. He said, “It’s prolly taken eighty some years to develop. These things take time, like my kidney stone. Get on with it.” So that’s what I’m doing.

Re: Cranbrook City Council 2015-19 Budget Meeting: I hope the new Mayor and Council recognize how lucky they are to have such hard working and knowledgable support staff at City Hall. Last week’s night’s budget meeting showed how dedicated these people are and each question raised was answered in depth, thus allowing the elected ones to make informed decisions. Thank You Wayne Staudt and the rest of the Staff — one cannot imagine the amount of documents you read to be this good. All citizens of Cranbrook should be proud to have you on the payroll.

Flood Plains
Today 30 neighbors from within the city of Cranbrook and the Regional District met to discuss and learn about our flooding risk. We heard that half of Cranbrook was developed and approved for sale on a flood plain. The other half of the city has been provided with storm sewers that were intended to quickly deliver rain and melting snow water to the flood plain. We learned about major flooding that has happened in the past. We heard it is
going to happen again. It is not a matter of if it happens. There is plenty of evidence that it will happen again soon. Our Elizabeth Lake and Idlewild neighbors know what it is like to be flooded. There are also plenty of flood victims within the City of Cranbrook. When the storm sewers are not maintained people are flooded. You may have heard stories about Cranbrook homes and businesses with sump pumps that operate 24 hours a day. If you are wondering about what happens when you build a road on saturated ground you just need to take a drive in Cranbrook to get your answer. At the bottom of my letter is a link to an old newspaper clipping that explains why the ground in Cranbrook is saturated in water. The article predicts that there will be major flooding a year or two after Elizabeth Lake is flooded. Elizabeth Lake experienced record flooding in 2014. Accountability for water management is a buck passing experience. In Cranbrook we need to hold the Federal government, provincial government, the Regional District, The City, Ducs Unlimited and The Columbia Trust Basin responsible. They have all had a hand in the mismanagement of our water. Please don’t count on our politicians. They need help in realizing this is a priority. Today 30 caring taxpayers met to start working on a plan. We welcome you to join us. I know we will have lots of support when half the town is flooded. Join us today and maybe we can do something before there is
flooding. I am in the phone book if you want to help us. Link to the article that explains why Cranbrook ground is saturated in water: https://dl.dropboxusercontent. com/u/39034343/engineer%20report%20 Cranbrook%20Cour ier%20March%20 9%2C%201944.pdf Bill Sutherland Cranbrook
Fluoride debate
The debate is still on in Cranbrook regarding fluoride in the domestic water supply. To all the folks who want fluoride in the water, here is something for you. There is no link between less cavities and a fluoridated water supply. There are links between fluoride nd everything from hyperthyroidism and kidney problems to lowered IQ. 98 per cent of Europe does not add fluoride to the water. But over 60 per cent of the water in the US is fluoridated. Why? Here is a great video from Nextworld Health TV. Sign up if you like what you see. http://www.nextworldhealthtv.com/ page/24549.html J.

Hippy science is easy, and wrong D id you do a “cleanse” to start the year? A diet or supplements to, you know, “detox” your body? Please, if you did, I don’t want the details. I’m here to discuss the underlying assumptions of this fad. TV presenter Dr. Oz is a promoter of various schemes, soup diets and the like, but there are many books and consumer products being flogged. “Supplements, tea, homeopathy, coffee enemas, ear candles and foot baths promise you a detoxified body,” writes Ontario pharmacist Scott Gavura, who treats cancer patients with medicine’s most potent drugs. Frustrated by the pharmacy industry’s willingness to cash in on fake cures for nonexistent conditions, Gavura began contributing to ScienceBasedMedicine.org, where you can search “detox” find his takedown of this notion. He traces the roots of purification rituals in religious and medical history, such as when patients were bled with leeches. Actual “detox” is administered in hospital for those with dangerous levels of drugs, alcohol or other poisons. Credible physicians abandoned theories of “autointoxication” in the 19th century. “Today’s version of autointoxication ar-
gues that some combination of food additives, salt, meat, fluoride, prescription drugs, smog, vaccine ingredients, GMOs and perhaps last night’s bottle of wine are causing a buildup of ‘toxins’ in the body,” Gavura writes. “And don’t forget gluten. Gluten is the new evil and therefore, is now a toxin.” Gluten-free products now occupy whole sections of grocery stores, not far from the pricey “organic” produce that may or may not BC Views be tested for synthetic pesticides. Tom Living in the Lower MainFletcher land 20 years ago, I noticed people lugging big plastic jugs to the grocery store to fill with water. Metro Vancouver is a rainforest, with some of the best tap water in the world, so I wondered what they were trying to avoid. Discreet inquiries yielded similar answers. Aside from the odd superstition about chlorine or fluoride, they had no idea at all. They didn’t know about the Coquitlam reservoir, or ozonation, or what they were buying, which was essentially municipal water run through a filter. They had been convinced to pay $2 for water in plastic bottles, and this somehow led to the conclusion that their tap water is only fit for washing clothes and driveways. Vaccinations?

registered nurse at a blood donor clinic, annoyed that the health ministry denied her imagined “right” to infect frail patients with influenza, and with a veteran politician who only recently overcame a vague taboo against putting vaccines in her body. It’s no wonder people constantly fall for enviro-scares like toxins from the Alberta oil sands that are actually concentrated in cities where all that fuel is burned, or the threat of genetically modified canola oil, or smart meters. The media are frequently part of the problem, lacking scientific literacy and preferring conflict over common sense. Take Vancouver (please). The mayor rose to fame with a company that sold overpriced imported tropical fruit juice in single-serving plastic bottles. Calling it “Happy Planet” convinced a new generation of urban rubes that they’re doing something for the environment. Plus, there are “no chemicals” in it, to cite the central myth of hippy science. At the risk of giving you too much information, I did a cleanse last year. It was for a screening colonoscopy, one of many that have taxed the B.C. health care system since a new test was added to the standard medical checkup. Try that one if you’re over 50.

Captain Kootenay Reinhart overtakes Stoll as Ice franchise scoring leader Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
It’s no secret Sam Reinhart had every intention of remaining with the Buffalo Sabres through the 2014-15 NHL season after the team made him the second-overall selection in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. After nine NHL games, the Sabres had different plans, sending Reinhart back to the Kootenay Ice. Since landing back in Cranbrook, the native of North Vancouver has made the most of his time. A few weeks ago, he was instrumental in Team Canada’s march to gold at the 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship. Saturday night in Saskatoon, his 10th goal of the season vaulted him past Kootenay Ice alumni Jarret Stoll, establishing Reinhart as the all-time franchise leader in points with 287 through 223 games. Stoll previously established the mark at 286 points in 245 games. “Obviously he’s an exceptional player in the National Hockey League. To be able to have my name up there with his is pretty special,” Reinhart said Monday afternoon. Trailing 2-1 with less than three minutes to play in regulation Saturday against the Saskatoon Blades, Reinhart took a perfect pass in

open space from Jaedon Descheneau before finding twine to tie the game 2-2 and establish the new franchise scoring mark. “The franchise is very proud of the accomplishments of those elite players and they should be recognized for it,” said Kootenay Ice head coach Ryan McGill Monday afternoon prior to practice at Western Financial Place. “We’ve been very fortunate to have really good players come through here. “To be here and see the maturity and improvement in [Reinhart’s] game since I got here three years ago, I’m not sure I know a word to describe it other than ‘awesome.’” Though Reinhart’s NHL hopes were temporarily dashed upon being returned to the Kootenay Ice from the Sabres Oct.

31, McGill doesn’t necessarily see it as a bad thing. He lists off a number of potentially discouraging moments in the career of his former captain, Stoll -- including a Game 7 Calder Cup loss with the AHL’s Hamilton Bulldogs, a Game 7 Stanley Cup final loss with the Edmonton Oilers and playing in the WHL as a 19-year-old -suggesting those experiences help push players towards bigger and better things. After battling those challenges, Stoll has gone on to be a twotime Stanley Cup winner with the Los Angeles Kings and racked up 375 points through 764 NHL games in what is an on-going 13-year professional career. “His mind will take him a long ways because of how he thinks the game,” McGill said of Reinhart. “You go through your career and you gain from every experience.” Like Stoll, Reinhart’s production at the major-junior level has seen a steady uptick in each

Captain Sam Reinhart became the all-time leading scorer in Kootenay Ice franchise history with a goal Saturday in Saskatoon. The marker was the 287th point of Reinhart’s WHL career, surpassing Ice alum and Stanley Cup champion Jarret Stoll. season he has played. As a 16-year-old, Reinhart tallied 62 points in 67 games during the 2011-12 campaign. The next season, he boosted his totals to 85 points in 72 games. Last season in his NHL draft year, Reinhart made his mark with 105 points in 60 games. With 33 points through 20 games this season, he continues to prove he is one of the most promising young prospects outside the NHL. Like Stoll, Reinhart has participated in two World Junior Championships, helping his country to a 5-4 victory over Russia Jan. 5. “One thing I was looking forward to was getting the opportunity to win a gold medal,” Reinhart said. “To be able to do that on home ice and in the fashion we did it was pretty spe-
cial to be a part of.” As an alternate captain, Reinhart was a key cog in Canada’s return to gold medal glory, scoring the game-winning goal in the championship game and totalling five goals and 11 points through the seven-game tournament. “It’s extremely easy to play with him,” Descheneau said Monday. “He’s always open or he’s always finding you. All around the ice, he creates opportunities for himself from the ‘D’ zone with the way he plays and the way he’s good with his stick. “He’s an all-around smart player and that goes a long ways.” For now, Reinhart’s focus is back in Cranbrook with the Kootenay Ice and the pursuit of a Memorial Cup championship. Since
his return to the lineup Jan. 9, the Ice have dropped four of five games with the WHL playoff push heating up. Tuesday, Reinhart and the Ice host the Vancouver Giants at Western Financial Place. Even though his focus is on getting his team into the WHL dance, it doesn’t mean Reinhart has stopped taking steps towards his NHL aspirations. “We have some work to do to make the playoffs and set ourselves up nicely for the post-season,” Reinhart said. “We have to get back on track and I think doing the little things well will enable me to be in the National Hockey League as soon as possible again. “[The Sabres] are always keeping a close eye. So that’s always nice.” While the Ice cling to
the second and final wild-card slot in the WHL’s Eastern Conference, what happens from here on out remains to be seen. Regardless, McGill’s perspective of his captain remains. “He’s a student of the game,” McGill said. “He loves to pick apart the opposition and see where there is weakness.” If the Kootenay Ice are to push for a second Memorial Cup championship or a fourth WHL title, McGill will need Reinhart to not only be the best player this franchise has ever seen, but the best player the WHL sees this season. “Clearly, [he] wants to be known as the best player this franchise has ever had,” McGill said. “That, in itself, is great self-motivation.”
Resounding road success Kimberley Dynamiters return from Okanagan with three of four points
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
The Kimberley Dynamiters left the Okanagan with three of a possible four points, after tying the Osoyoos Coyotes Friday night and defeating the North Okanagan Knights Saturday. “[The Coyotes] came out pretty quick, and
you wonder as a coach whether you can keep up,” said Nitros head coach Jerry Bancks Monday. “We just jumped right in and it was a really good game. “It was lots of fun. It’s very physical over there [in the Okanagan Division] so it’s good we adapted to it.”
The Nitros opened the road trip by playing to a 3-3 draw against the KIJHL’s top team -- the Osoyoos Coyotes. Jesse Wallace, who stepped his game up in the eyes of Bancks, tallied two goals to pace the offense in Osoyoos, including the tying tally with 6:28 to play.
Tyson Brouwer was solid in facing 47 shots from the Coyotes, turning aside 44. “He did what he always does -- he made saves when he needed to,” Bancks said of his goaltender. “He controlled rebounds well and made some huge saves, especially early,
like he always does, to keep us in the game.” The tie in Osoyoos provided a strong start to a successful weekend as the Dynamiters moved on to knock off the North Okanagan Knights 6-4 Saturday.

For as long as Jasmine Beaulac can remember, sports have played a significant role in her life. That trend isn’t about to change any time soon. After attending a NBC Basketball Camp in Olds, Alta., during the summer of 2014, Beaulac -- a Grade 9 student at Parkland Middle School in Cranbrook -- was recently invited to attend the NBC Camps International Canada Basketball Tour to the United Kingdom, June 28 to July 10. “My goal was to improve my knowledge of the game, work on my outer-range shots and to work on my post plays,” Beaulac said, reflecting on her first experience with NBC Camps. “Overall, it was the best camp I have ever attended and I learned so much about the sport and even more
about who I am.” Beaulac’s performance at the camp as well as her involvement in the community helped earn her an invitation to the international tour this coming summer. In addition to playing for her school team -the Parkland Raiders -Beaulac is a coach for the Gordon Terrace Elementary School Grade 6 boys basketball team. She also assists with the Steve Nash Youth Basketball program in town. On top of it all, Beaulac proves herself a student of the game by volunteering as a hard-court referee as well. The hard-working young lady doesn’t restrict her community involvement to the basketball court either. When she isn’t making it rain, Beaulac volunteers two days a week at a local retirement centre and
Nitros road trip Continued from page 6 In all, the Nitros registered five power-play goals in a crazy affair that saw both teams combine for 79 minutes in penalties. The Dynamiters were tagged with 25 minutes worth of infractions, while the Knights were slammed with 54. Spending so much time on the man advantage provided plenty of offensive zone time for the Dynamiters, leading
to an astounding 68 shots sent towards Knights goaltender Mitch Profeit. “We got up 4-0 fairly early and I think the guys thought it was going to be an easy game,” Bancks said. “We started taking some penalties and [the Knights] capitalized on at least one power play. They worked their way back in it.” Jason Richter contin-
works part-time at Fort Steele Heritage Town. With such a busy daily itinerary, Beaulac is in need of support as she continues to pursue her blossoming hoop dreams. The cost of her trip to the United Kingdom is expected to exceed $6,500, a hefty bill for a full-time middle-school student. She plans on hosting a couple fundraising events in the coming months to help work towards her trip. If she raises more than $5,000, Beaulac indicated she will be donating any extra proceeds to KidSport Cranbrook to assist other young local athletes pursue their own athletic dreams. Those interested in sponsoring Beaulac are encouraged to contact her via basketballbeaulac@gmail.com. In addition to competing in the United
Kingdom, Beaulac will travel to Calgary for a two-day training session prior to jet-setting for Europe. NBC Camps is based out of Spokane, Wash., and was founded in 1971 as Northwest Basketball Camp by Fred Crowell, a NCAA Div. 1 basketball coach at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. The program has since evolved to provide a variety of camps in addition to basketball, including volleyball and soccer. According to its website, the NBC Camps mission is “to create the best sports camp experience in the world, aspire to teach sport at the very highest level, work hard to create a totally unique experience, and give to each student athlete the will to become not only the best athlete but also the most complete person he or she can be.”
ued his strong play, keeping pace in the KIJHL scoring race by tallying a goal and two assists Saturday. The performance gave the Nitros captain 34 goals and 55 points on the season, leaving him one point behind Fernie Ghostrider Doan Smith for the league lead in scoring. “There isn’t a better captain in the league, in my opinion, just because of the effort he puts into it,” Bancks said of Rich-
ter. “When you have him as a teammate, you better jump on board or you look pretty silly. “Without his leadership, I don’t think we’re where we are.” Brody Nelson had the start in net Saturday and weathered some early breakdowns, making 23 stops to earn his ninth victory of the season. Next up, the Dynamiters host the Columbia Valley Rockies Friday at 7 p.m.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I are in our late 70s and we raised four children. We lost our second son to suicide when he was 7. He suffered from major depression. A few years ago, our daughter wrote us, saying that her eldest brother had sexually molested her when she was very young. She said we knew about it and covered it up. We knew nothing about it and were very upset. I confronted our son, now 42, and he admitted to it and was so sorry for what he did all those years ago. He also said he is not the same person he was then. I told our daughter that her brother admitted everything and felt terrible about it and that I hope at some point, he will tell her directly how sorry he is. Since he became an adult, this son is the kindest person and has the closest relationship with us of all our children. Last week, our youngest son and his family came to visit. It turns out that his eldest brother also had molested him when they were children. But he never appeared as devastated as his sister, and moved on. What are we supposed to do at this stage of our lives? Do you think our eldest son could have been molested at an early age and then acted out like this on his siblings? We found out later that there was a pedophile priest in our local parish. Our son has never admitted to any molestation when he was a boy and we are afraid to ask him. Any advice? -- Distraught Dear Distraught: This is a terribly disturbing situation, but please don’t hide from it. Your son has already admitted the abuse. He needs to apologize to both of his siblings and ask for forgiveness. We are glad that he has changed for the better, but that doesn’t help his sister or brother come to terms with what happened. We strongly urge you to get into family counseling and work through this. All of you would benefit, including your eldest son. Dear Annie: You recently published a letter from a woman who was complaining that her husband recently developed anxiety about traveling in a car. This onset of anxiety, particularly in midlife or later, could be a symptom of Parkinson’s disease. If the anxiety is accompanied by terrible nightmares (including yelling, punching and kicking) and/or by constipation that seems to develop where it didn’t exist before, Parkinson’s could well be the reason. I watched these symptoms develop and didn’t understand why -- until the twitching started in one thumb. Then a neurologist confirmed that these symptoms were, indeed, indications that Parkinson’s was at work. Her husband should get to a neurologist now. -- Wish We Knew Dear Wish: Thank you for giving us the opportunity to mention some of the symptoms of Parkinson’s. Parkinson’s is a progressive and chronic neurological disease that interferes with the body chemicals that control movement and mood. It usually begins with mild symptoms that advance slowly, so they are often ignored. Symptoms include tremors or shaking in any part of the body when it’s at rest, changes in handwriting, loss of smell, trouble sleeping, muscle tension and rigidity, changes or difficulty in walking, constipation, a muffled voice, feeling dizzy on a regular basis and depression. If you are experiencing any of these things, even in a very mild form, please talk to your doctor about Parkinson’s. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Getting It Off My Chest,” whose major peeve is that family never comes to visit: If you buy the plane tickets, you will have plenty of company. -- G.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.
3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back. A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.
4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image. When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a better chance of getting their business if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.
5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient. Direct has the advantages â&#x20AC;&#x201C; demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar. Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.
To advertise using our â&#x20AC;&#x153;SERVICES GUIDEâ&#x20AC;? in the Cranbrook Daily Townsman, Kimberley Daily Bulletin and The Valley, call us at 250-426-5201, ext. 202.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales. Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.
8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate. Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in business, you have overhead and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.
9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image. In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.
10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale. When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.
