Wet weather kept the spectators away from the sixth annual Snowmobile Drags sponsored by the Kettle Valley Racing Association (KVRA). But the riders were there, coming from across the province and across the international border. The start was aided this year by the use of launch pads made from old snowmobile tracks mounted on plywood. Despite the puddles the day was a relatively nice—the rain that had caused all the puddles in the first place held off for most of the day. KVRA turned the concession over to the grad class this year— and they were flipping burgers and keeping everyone happy all day long. The KVRA is a group of volunteers and local business owners who exist to increase local economic activity through racing.

Stewardship talk of meeting

Get with the

‘If we don’t put out the effort, we are going to lose the trails’

Everyone acknowledged the motorized elephant that sat in the middle of the Midway Community Hall last Thursday when two top officials from Recreation Sites and Trails BC of the Ministry of Forest, Lands and Natural Resource Operations came to talk about the Trans Canada Trail. They had come to talk about trail stewardship and to offer local residents the chance to help ensure the rail trail corridor in the Boundary is maintained for future generations. Sandy Elzinga, assistant manager of Community Futures Boundary, welcomed Tennessee Trent, trails specialist with Recreation Sites and Trails BC (RSTBC) and John Hawkings, director of RSTBC. Also present was Kevin Eskelin, regional recreation manager, Southern Interior East Region – Cranbrook. Hawkings reviewed the history of the provinces’ ownership of the trails, which includes the Carmi Subdivision of the Kettle Valley Railway that runs from Midway to Naramata, the Columbia and Western (C&W) between Midway and Grand Forks, the KVR Penticton and Osoyoos subdivisions, and the C&W from Grand Forks to Castlegar and the Slocan Subdivision. Hawking said the Forest Practices Act that now regulates the trails didn’t even exist at the time, and it wasn’t until 2010 that RSTBC was given responsibility for these specific trails. Today the former rail corridor is recognized in legislation as trails, but ever since the 1990s when the government bought the land, it was essentially vacant Crown land. “There are some designations on var-

ious portions of it,” Hawking said. But there are lots of portions where it hasn’t been designated as anything, and that is the case through most of the Boundary. In the City of Grand Forks the trail is designated non-motorized by a municipal bylaw. It is also non-motorized through Myra Canyon Provincial Park, legally non-motorized from Naramata up to Penticton and up to Summerland. It is also non-motorized through the town of Princeton. “The rest of it—while we are not condoning motorized use, we are indulging it there,” Hawking said. But he repeated RSTBC is willing to work with the communities to try and manage it and to resolve the issue in a way that benefits the most people. He said RSTBC works with communities who have shown an interest in resolving the issue. He cited work done in Naramata and Summerland. “But if the communities are not interested in resolving this question, there is no resolve.” “We are not going to start enforcing until we can go out and work with the groups,” Hawkings said, adding that he would welcome one big group of trail stewards in the Boundary who could come up with a voice to help solve the problem locally. But trail maintenance and partnership with locals was what Hawkings and Trent had come to talk about. The top priority for RSTBC is to maintain the trails to a basic level: preventing washouts, maintaining engineering infrastructure and ensuring safety for users. Hawking said they view the trails as

community trails first, regional trails second, provincial trails third and then they become part of the national trails system. Trent explained the Rec Sites and Trails Partnership Agreement and the Individual Volunteer Service Agreement. With a staff of fewer than 40, the RSTBC relies on some 300 partnership agreements with community groups across B.C. to be the eyes on local sections of trails and rec sites. RSTBC provides project materials and funding for local projects as its budget allows. Volunteers working under an agreement are covered by insurance. Area E director Vicki Gee said afterwards she is very interested in trying to move this forward as a regional district initiative. “In the past the regional district hasn’t been too enthusiastic because the government hasn’t been offering a lot of money and they are worried about downloading,” Gee said. “But if that doesn’t fly then I might approach communities about creating a regional non-profit to do this.” Gee noted the B&B owner from Idabel Lake who told the meeting that 600800 cyclists come through there each year. “If we don’t put out the effort, we are going to lose the trails,” Trent said. “What we really need are community members to step up and help us with this.” He said stewardship groups help identify priorities and provide a local vision for the rail trail.

All you Local teen heads to pageant need is love.

Rock Creek teenager Dakota Turnbull is heading to the Miss BC Pageant at the end of this month. She told the Times in a phone interview that she had contacted pageant organizers last year after a friend had suggested it. While she was too late to participate then, pageant representatives recently contacted her to see if she’d like to get on board this year. An application led to a phone interview. “They ask you questions to find out who you are and what your beliefs are and then they choose 300 people to go and compete for Miss BC,” Turnbull explained. “If I win the regional title I will represent the Rock Creek/Kootenay Area. If I win Miss BC then I will represent all of British Columbia,” she said. Contestants compete for both titles at the same time. The pageant takes place from Feb. 28 to March 1. Turnbull acknowledges her major sponsor, Bubbles and Bells Gown Boutique in Kelowna. But going to the Lower Mainland for a weekend, registration and the outfit is all a bit much to handle. So she is seeking support from businesses and individuals in the West Boundary. Turnbull is a Grade 11 student at BCSS, member of 4-H and the youth archery club. She also belongs to a Kelowna cheer team that takes part in major competitions. “My philosophy of life is that anything can happen,” Turnbull said. “Like just go with it. I am

really amazed at the opportunities that I have been given and I think that those opportunities are out there for everyone if you look for them.”

But some new Carhartt wouldn’t hurt, either! Spring styles are arriving. Treat your sweetheart to some country-living clothing for Valentine’s Day. Roses are red. Carhartt is tough. I’d prefer a new jacket, than jewelry and stuff.

There’s hope the trail will achieve its potential

We don’t get too many chances out here in rural B.C. to grab the brass ring as it comes by. So we’d be wise to pay attention. There is hope yet that the Trans Canada Trail and KVR might achieve their full potential here in the Boundary. The meeting last week in Midway with Rec Sites and Trails BC (RSTBC) offered a lot of clarity about the trail. They admitted that the way the province has gotten into the rail trail game isn’t exactly a shining example of good land management. But they came to offer a partnership program for maintaining the trail. Here’s a quick trail status update: The trails exist in law. The number one priority for the folks at the RSTBC is that the trails be maintained to a standard that will ensure their integrity. They can’t do this alone so they rely on community stewards (groups and individuals) along the trail who help them keep on top of things. The purpose of the meeting was to introduce this partnership agreement program to local residents. Of course other issues were raised. This corridor of Crown land has remained unoccupied for two decades and questions about access and encroachment exist all along the length of the trail. While those issues are important, they are secondary to the need for maintenance. It’s like everyone agrees they like the elephant that sits in the centre of the room. They often have different reasons for liking the elephant, and sometimes they argue. But one thing must be made clear—if nothing is done to feed and clean up after this elephant then it isn’t going to be here forever to argue about.

REACHING NEW

Fugitives to entertain at pavilion Submitted

For 38 years, the Fugitives Dance Band has been entertaining crowds with their old time country and western dance music. These born-and-raised Southern Manitoban farm-raised musicians know their stuff, and with years of experience (every member of the band has been involved with music since their teen years), they know how to get a crowd on its feet! Enormously popular from their home in Southern Manitoba to points as far south as Mesa, Arizona, and Las Vegas, Nevada, and from Canada’s west coast to the Maritimes, the group is renowned for their “return engagements.” The band has always played New Year’s Eve events, but their home-town New Years Eve dance, which has been going strong for 15 years, is legendary, an event which many would not miss. Their road parties, which host busloads of travellers who accompany the band (including Henry Martens, Dianne Lodge, Cyn Lodge, and Bill Gray) on

Most hotels support tax, says study CRAIG LINDSAY

A new study shows that a majority of hotels in the Boundary support a hotel tax with the money raised going into marketing for those hotels. If the plan goes through and is approved by the provincial government, local hotels would be charging each visitor two per cent extra on their bill. The hotel tax was one of the main topics brought up at a recent meeting between shareholders Tuesday evening at the Community Futures building in Grand Forks. The meeting was hosted by the Christina Gateway Community Development Association (CDA) but no official organization has been formed yet for what would be a destination tourism group for the Boundary. “We received money from SIBAC (Southern Interior Beetle Action Coalition) and that’s how Christina Gateway was able to contract me to go through the Boundary and do a tourism survey,” said Cindy Alblas, project coordinator for Christina Gateway CDA. Albas said the survey looked at what the main opportunities in the region are as well as the main challenges.

“We also talked about ways we could improve our region and one of the ways is by choosing to collect the municipal regional district tax which is an up to two per cent tax that hotel accommodators with more than four or more rooms can charge,” she said. “This money would go to a destination market organization (DMO) that would be formed in our region.” Alblas said the money raised from the tax is expected to be about $60,000 and is required to go only to the direct marketing of our region. In order to charge the municipal regional district “hotel room” tax (MRDT), the organization needs 51 per cent support from all accommodators in the region as well 51 per cent support from all hotel rooms in the region. Alblas said at this point they are at 68 per cent of accommodators and 72.5 per cent of rooms which are in support of implementing this tax in our region. The tax would include the whole Boundary from Christina Lake up to, but not including Big White, which is already collecting the MRDT. “We are in a good position to put in an application,” she said. At the meeting on Feb. 3, stakeholders heard presentations from tourism groups from both Rossland and Nelson as well as from

a representative from Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association (TOTA), which is the regional representative for Destination BC. “They all talked about how their destination marketing organizations were established and how they have benefited their region,” said Alblas. “It was very evident that every year they’ve had increased bed stays. That would be the mandate with our business plan as well.” Alblas said all of the accommodators wanted to increase the length of the shoulder season. “The meeting was about bringing all of our stakeholders and partners together so we could have a discussion about how that destination marketing organization is going to look in our region,” she said, “because there are options we can look at. It was a very positive meeting; very hopeful.

The biggest positive of all of this is that we will have collaboration of all of our accommodations as well as the tourism industry around the table region-wide. Now we have to be thinking regionally. We don’t live in a place with high population in each of our communities so we have to think collaboratively to move forward.” Alblas said all the regions surrounding the Boundary are collecting the MRDT hotel tax and building their “tourism empires.” “We are among the 10 per cent of B.C. which does not collect the MRDT,” she said. “We need to begin ours and that’s what this destination marketing organization will help us do,” she said. Alblas said they will continue to meet and decide on the next steps.
