Derailment of train downtown sparks rail safety concerns ALEX COOPER

A derailment of two grain cars on a train full of tanker cars carrying dangerous goods in downtown Revelstoke last week has sparked worries of what could have been.

“Obviously there is a concern,” said Mayor Mark McKee. “It was just lentils but take lentils out of the picture and put in propane and it becomes a different story.”

The CP Rail train derailed across the street from the Visitor Information Centre on Thursday, Apr. 2, at about 2 p.m.

George Hopkins witnessed the train derailment. A retired railroader, he and his son were watching the train slowly pass by when they heard a bang and it jumped the track.

They both rushed to contact CP Rail.

Lorraine Beruschi and Marie-Eve Bruchig, who work in the visitor centre, said they didn’t hear anything, but right away people came rushing in to say what happened.

The derailed cars were carrying a grain of some sort. They were preceded and followed by a long line of black containers cars that generally carry oil, gases or dangerous goods.

One car was lying on its side; one set of wheels was completely detached from the car and remained on the tracks with its load of grains spilled. It had rammed into the car in front of it before flipping onto its side.

The car behind it was only partially jerked from the tracks.

Numerous CP Rail personnel were on scene. Revelstoke RCMP and Fire & Rescue Services also attended the incident.

Transportation Safety Board spokesperson Chris Krepski said they were not deploysee Derailment, page 2

Revelstoke Fire & Rescue Services to address the possibility of a dangerous goods spill.

Kathy Fox, the chair of the Transportation Safety Board, expressed concerns about the safety of some tank cars in an interview with the Financial Post that was published the day of the derailment.

The CPC-1232 cars are supposed to be tougher than the ones that ruptured at Lac Megantic, but Fox called them into question after four seperate oil trains derailed and caught fire in less than a month, the Financial Post reported.

She also said more train and track inspections were needed.

David Wilks, the MP for Kootenay-Columbia, said the government was taking steps to improve rail safety, such as requiring re-inforced tanker cars.

When asked about a Financial Post article, he said that Lisa Raitt, the Federal Minister of Transport, is putting plans into action to ensure more inspections happen.

"We've increased the amount of inspectors that will be doing that duty and we put that in the hands of the Transportation Safety Board," said Wilks.

McKee said he was aiming to speak to CP Rail officials this week and would address the issue at the city’s administration, industry partnerships and communications committee.

“It’s a concern for a lot of people in the community and it’s something we have to be vigilant and stay on top of,” he said.

ing to the scene but would be monitoring the situation. When asked why the TSB was not investigating a derailment within city limits, Krepski said the TSB would re-consider if there were any new developments.

Many people gathered on Victoria Road to watch the scene unfold. A few retired railroaders remarked it had been many years since a train derailed right downtown. Many people speculated what could have happened if one of the tanker cars came off the tracks.

It was the second derailment within city limits in the past year. A train derailed in the Big Eddy last September. While local emergency personnel weren’t notified of the last derailment, this time it couldn’t be hidden.

CP Rail crews could be seen replacing the section of tracks following the derailment. Salem Woodrow, a spokesperson for CP Rail said this was standard procedure following an incident.

“Typically when there is an incident like this, there could be some track damage,” she said. “If there is track damage, we will replace a section of the rail and make those repairs before we open it to traffic.”

The cause of the derailment was still under investigation as of press time. Woodrow would not say what products the train was carrying.

Last month, Mike Lovecchio, the CP Rail director for government affairs was in Salmon Arm to address the Columbia Shuswap Regional District Board of Directors about rail safety. He said CP Rail was leading the pack when it comes to rail safety, but that it was also moving more dangerous goods.

LoVecchio said crude oil is one of the more dangerous commodities but assured directors not a lot of it moves through the regional district directly.

But other commodities do — including various hydrocarbon liquids, propane and chlorine.

“At the end of the day, these are the products you as communities use,” he said.

“Society is using it and we are moving it, and under the Railway Safety Act, we are obligated to move it safely.”

New fishing regulations in effect for Revelstoke area ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com Changes in regulations to the Columbia River fishery don't go far enough, says the Revelstoke Rod and Gun Club.

"It's not everything we wanted but its better than before," said Gary Krestinsky, the club's president. "These new regulations are welcome but they only go partway to conservation."

The 2015-17 Freshwater Fishing Regulations went into effect April 1.

In the Revelstoke area, the most significant change is that fishing is now banned from the Revelstoke Dam to the BC Hydro power lines over the Columbia River, about 300 metres north of the Illecillewaet River.

The change means that fishing from the shoreline in Centennial Park or along the Big Eddy Greenbelt will no longer be allowed.

As well, no bull trout under 60 centimetres can be caught in an area from the power lines in Revelstoke to the Alkokolex Narrows, about 1.5-kilometres south of the confluence with the Alkokolex River.

Also notable is that fishing is no longer allowed in the Illecillewaet River downstream of Albert Canyon.

Jeff Burrows, the senior fish biologist for the Fish & Wildlife Branch in the Kootenays, said the changes were made in response to concerns from the Rod & Gun Club.

"We heard some serious concerns from these stakeholders about their sport fishery and what they perceived as excess of harvest," he said. "We tried to find a balance in this new set of regs which still allowed significant fishing and some opportunity to

An angler casts his rod from the Centennial Park boat launch. New regulations that went into effect April 1 ban fishing there. ~ Photo by Michael Watson harvest bull trout, with a slight conservation compared to last year."

Burrows said the changes were made because people were observed harvesting lots of bull trout, but he acknowledged there was little data to support the observations.

Currently the ministry only surveys anglers in the Arrow Lakes up to Shelter Bay but Burrows said they are looking to extend the survey into the Revelstoke Reach.

He said recent counts of bull trout nests — called redds — were down, adding that might not directly correlate to population numbers because they don't spawn every year.

"When they're in good condition, they'll spawn every year. If they have trouble finding food, they'll skip spawning," Burrows said. "A decrease in spawning numbers isn't necessarily a decrease in population, but it

could be."

The Fish & Wildlife Branch will monitor the changes for the next several years to see how they work. The priority is conservation, followed by "social and economic benefits," said Burrows.

"We think the 60 centimetre rule in the drawdown reach might reduce harvest by 50 per cent," he said. "We're finding the balance without having good data in there."

The changes haven't been greeted kindly, with many commenting on the Review website that the new regulations will prevent families from being able to go fishing near town. See our story, From the web: Disappointment over new fishing regulations, below for those comments.

Krestinsky said the Rod & Gun Club supports the changes, but it had asked for the fishery to be closed all the way to Arrowhead. "Our primary concern is there's no conservation officer to enforce it and there's no signage," he said. "While the regulation changes are good, they're virtually useless if there's no enforcement."

Revelstoke has been without a Conservation Officer since November 2013 and repeated requests to have the position reinstated have been denied by Environment Minister Mary Polak.

Krestinsky said people were fishing with barbed hooks and the size and number of fish being caught was being exceeded.

"We want the ministry to make those changes to conserve the stock that's there and enforce the regulations," he said.

A committee has been formed to once again approach the Ministry of the Environment about re-instating the Conservation Service in Revelstoke.

From the web: Disappointment over new fishing regulations REVELSTOKE REVIEW STAFF Our story on changes to fishing regulations in the Revelstoke area received many comments online, mostly from people opposed to banning fishing from the shore of Centennial Park and in the Big Eddy. Here's a sampling of what people had to say. We posted them in order, because some comments are a response to previous ones:

Tony Morabito:

Ray Peterson

"This closure is a gross mistake especially if it's going to be a permanent thing. In case the Rod and Gun club isn't aware, there are now no rivers in the Revelstoke area that fishing (isn't) banned or restricted except for a stretch of the Columbia. I think a better approach would be for the club to go after BC Hydro for violating the Federal Government's "No Net Loss Policy" as it applies to fish habitat degradation.

I agree Tony. God forbid we have a place close to home for someone to go fishing, or a place where a kid can jump on his bike to go to a fishing spot close to home. They can have rules around the amount of fish people can catch, one per person. I don't believe they have to completely close it.

There are some people who have boats that get out to spots where they will catch huge amounts of fish and will continue to do

that, but I can't take a little kid down to the ballpark to catch one.

Diane Holmes I think this is really sad. You have taken away the ability of kids and people with disabilities to have easy access to fishing in Revelstoke. I doubt the fish being caught off the banks of the Columbia will make see Fishing, page 7

Conjunctivitis, most commonly known as “pink eye”, is a redness and swelling of the mucous membrane that lines the eyelids and the eye surface. It can be caused by allergies, chemicals or most commonly infections. Conjunctivitis caused by bacterial or viral infections are contagious and can spread quickly. The most common symptoms associated with conjunctivitis are red, swollen, itchy eyes.

Discharge can vary from watery to mucous in appearance depending on the cause.

Vision can become blurry as well.

With John Teed & David Lafreniere

As you may have recently heard on the news, there has been an increase in the number of cases of infectious conjunctivitis over the past few months. The best defense against conjunctivitis is prevention- it is critical to always wash your hands especially after being in a public area or around someone who may potentially have pink eye.

If you think you may have conjunctivitis, please call the office immediately. We do have emergency appointment slots open throughout the day.

Telus reveals fibre-optic network rollout plan ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com Telus has unveiled the rollout schedule for the planned fibre-optic network in Revelstoke.

The company posted a map on its website

illustrating the months different areas of town will receive fibre-optic connections.

The western half of the downtown core, from Connaught Avenue to the TransCanada Highway will be the first area to be hooked up in August.

The rest of central Revelstoke, CPR Hill and Columbia Park will be connected in September. Southside, parts of Arrow Heights, Revelstoke Mountain Resort and the South Revelstoke area will be connected in October.

The rest of Arrow Heights, the Big Eddy and Mount Begbie Road area will be connected in November.

Of note is that it appears fibre will be extended to all properties along Mount Begbie Road and south of town to the end of Airport Way. Properties north of town won't be so lucky — the network map does not include Westside Road, Glacier House Resort and the Revelstoke Dam. Telus is investing $7 million to bring broadband direct to homes and businesses in Revelstoke. The network will enable speeds of up to 100 megabits per second, as well as services like Telus' OptikTV. The connection is free and property owners can chose whether or not they want to be hooked up. Afterwards, Telus will be sending sales people door-to-door to up-sale people on the new products available.

This map shows how the Telus fibre optic network will be unrolled in Revelstoke. ~ Image courtesy Telus/Google Maps

Pike suppression program looks to continue

Revelstoke Skating Club

Annual General Meeting

Report: "The increase of Northern Pike poses significant threats to the Columbia River ecosystem including predation of native species, introduction of a wide variety of parasites and diseases, and competition with other species for common food resources.”

ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com The Lower Columbia River Northern Pike Suppression Report (LCRNPSR) provides a sobering glimpse into what lies in the depths and shallows of the Robson Reach portion of the mighty Columbia River.

The report, released by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resources Operations (MFLNRO), confirms what many suspected; the northern pike population in the Columbia River is growing substantially and is a significant threat to native and non-native fish and the river’s blue-ribbon fishery.

Following a 2014 gill-netting initiative undertaken by Jeremy Baxter of Mountain Water Research and Matt Neufeld of the MFLNRO, the report estimates that the Columbia River pike population has ballooned to approximately 725, with a low-end estimate of 500 and a high estimate of over 2,700.

“The increase of Northern Pike poses significant threats to the Columbia River ecosystem including predation of native species, introduction of a wide variety of parasites and diseases, and competition with other species for common food resources,” states the report.

“The current gill-netting suppression program has helped to eliminate approximately 20 per cent of the northern pike population, but more rigorous efforts may be required to control this invasive species before they get significantly established.”

Under the direction of Neufeld and Baxter, fisheries technicians set nets over 16 days in May, August, and November of last year, netting a total of 133 pike that measured between 14 and 38 inches (37-96 cm.), and weighed up to 21-pounds (9.85 kg).

While the report clearly reveals the scope of the pike problem and its implications, Neufeld says an actual plan to address the problem has yet to be hammered out.

“We don’t quite know what that program is going to look like yet,” said Neufeld in an interview earlier this week. “As you read in that report, it looked somewhat hopeful that a removal program would have some meaningful impact on population size, but we’re still working out the details.”

The pike made their way into the Columbia from the Pend d’Oreille Reservoir, where a pike suppression program has been ongoing for a number of years.

The Columbia River gill-netting study was a small sampling compared to the efforts in the U.S. portion of the Pend d’Oreille River in Box Canyon where over 16,000 pike have been removed in the past three years.

“That (the Columbia program) was a first stab at the feasibility - certainly 20 per cent of the fish there isn’t trivial, but certainly not enough to have a significant impact,” said Neufeld.

The suppression effort undertaken by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and the Kalispel Tribe Natural Resources Department (KNRD) has reduced the pike population in Box Canyon by about 90 per cent, primarily

through a rigorous springtime gill-netting program.

The Box Canyon population increased from a count of approximately 400 in 2006 to more than 5,500 in 2010, while most other species declined significantly during that time.

This example provides ample warning for local fisheries as the potential threat northern pike populations pose in the Columbia, and possible spread through the Arrow Lakes Reservoir.

7:00 p.m. at the Community Centre Pike were first detected in the Lower Columbia in 2009, when five were caught during a fish survey undertaken by Golder Associates.

MFLNRO addressed the problem by changing regulations to permit unlimited retention quotas, as well as introduce an angler-pike-reward program in 2013, in which PIT tags were embedded in the heads of 30 pike caught then released. It encouraged anglers to target pike and return heads to fisheries. Those with an embedded tag would garner a $500 reward.

The pike-reward program expired in March of 2014, but the response proved satisfactory as fisheries received 21 heads, yet none with PIT tags. However, last year’s gill-netting initiative caught six pike with PIT tags intact enabling biologists to calculate high growth rates.

Neufeld says MFLNRO is working with invasive species specialists from the Ministry of the Environment as well as partners like Teck, B.C. Hydro and others to determine funding and the most cost-effective method of extraction.

“I think overall the next steps are validating that it (gill-netting) will be a feasible option for control,” said Neufeld. “This was a good first step at looking at that, but the details of that program we’re hoping to flesh that out in the next month or so.”

The report recommends that gillnetting suppression efforts in 2015 Vernon’s Best Value…. Make Us Yours! should continue on the Lower Columbia River and include sampling in both the Arrow Lakes and Pend d’Oreille Reservoir to determine how far the Sun-Thu: invasion has spread and whether or not spawning is taking place.

Basin residents are strength of the Columbia Basin Trust The Columbia Basin Trust is a perfect example of what can be accomplished when local wisdom is at the core of decision making.

MLA REPORT

F

or 20 years, the Columbia Basin Trust (CBT) has provided proof that when a region receives a fair share of economic benefit and is given responsibility for decision making on how best to use that benefit, tremendous things can happen.

Created in 1995 to support the Basin’s social, economic and environmental priorities, funded by revenue from the Columbia River Treaty, the Trust has promoted self-sufficiency for present and future generations. But its real success has been driven by the constant input and interest of the people of this region, proving that the greatest wisdom sits with members of the community.

I’m reminded of the time before the 2008 stock market crash when the leadership of the CBT expressed an interest in investing more heavily in the market and selling off the dams, but the residents of the Basin forcefully said no. Fortunately, the original founders of the Trust had insisted that public input be mandated for all aspects of the Trust’s operations, and that requirement ensured that the wisdom of the people had to prevail. It would have

Norm Macdonald

been a sadly diminished Trust following the crash of 2008 if public input had not been hardwired into the mandate of the CBT. The Columbia Basin Trust is a perfect example of what can be accomplished when local wisdom is at the core of decision making.

The Columbia Basin Trust’s people-driven model is an anomaly in British Columbia, as the provincial and federal governments become less and less concerned by or responsive to the wishes of its citizens.

It often seems that the people in power do not actually care about what you think. Your opinion about the decisions that they make does not matter to them. They do not care how those decisions will affect you.

I am so thankful to the politicians and community members who were responsible for establishing the Columbia Basin Trust, and who laid out its vision and its mandate. The understanding that the Trust cannot proceed without the approval of Basin residents is a key component of its success. I only wish that our governments would operate under a similar mandate.

Comments: BC Hydro no-net-loss policy needs enforcement Fishing, from page 3 any difference compared to the amount of fish caught from boats. You have eliminated a wholesome and affordable family activity. A poorly thought out decision. I also fail to see how this will in anywayshape or form influence the decision on a conservation officer for Revelstoke.

Sherri Lucas-Gibson Size seems to be the issue. I grew up there with my son, fishing on the banks of the Columbia. If size was a consideration, we would have listened.

Informing people seems to be the solution. Then, if they still don't listen, take away the freedoms.

People need to say something when they see someone illegal fishing as well. That is why everyone suffers — for the disregard shown by the few.

Tanya Robyn Stockand The complete closure seems extreme. Simply end the exemptions that have until now allowed this stretch of the river to be fished year round, including during spawning times, and let it be

subject to the normal Region 4 regulations for seasonal closure of rivers and streams. And yes, get on BC Hydro for how their actions change the river. How can flow changes that see a rise and then fall of more than one metre in a 24 hour period – repeatedly – be good for spawning habitats?

Tony Morabito Tanya, the river doesn't have enough current and ability to scour the river banks during high water to clean the gravel and replenish invertebrate habitat such as stone flies, midges and other insect hatching that immature bait fishes such as juvenile dolly garden, char, Rocky Mountain whitefish etc. (eat), thus no large predator fish lurking for most of the year. Under the fed's No Net Loss Policy BC Hydro is responsible for replenishing fish habitat or stock. If the Rod and Gun Club, AKA Arrow Lake Fishery Association, wanted to improve fishing opportunities, they would be pushing BC Hydro to live up to their obligation and restore the fishery to pre-dam construction levels. We should expect no less!

sult of needing to make a quilt for their bed. Prior to that, she'd stuck mainly to more traditional formats of painting, print making, and drawing.

“I had seen my mother and grandmother make quilts. I started with very basic shapes and eventually they became these collages,” said Beverly.

When asked if she felt textiles needed to be more acknowledged as art, Beverly replied: “I never think of mine [art] as a craft. I was a painter first, and went to art school.”

Her art training is obvious with the way her pieces reflect light and colour, and Beverly says she definitely draws on her art training when completing pieces. From a distance, it's possible to mistake Beverly's textile pieces for paintings.

Richard's move into a different medium is perhaps subtler, but more recent. Primarily an acrylic painter, he began to experiment with watercolours about 10 years ago.

“Prior to that I had never worked with watercolour before,” he said. “What's curious is that I've always worked with the human figure and slowly over the years landscape has become involved. Over the years the figure has disappeared and it has just become about landscape.”

When he's painting, Richard says he is more interested in what's happening with the paint than with the subject itself.

“I look at the world and I don't see it different than anyone else,” he said. “Then I look away and look at the paper and I don't do a literal translation. You make a mark and that leads to making the next mark which leads to an entirely different thing and that leads to abstraction.”

One of the largest pieces in the exhibition is a replica of a rock garden from Beverly and Richard's home. Richard lent a hand to Beverly by building the wooden frame for the piece, which is covered in appliqued fabric made to look exactly like a rock wall.

“It's all one piece, so it got very hot,” said Beverly. In the centre of the rock wall sits a rock made to look exactly like one in their garden, only slightly larger. The faux rock is made out of styrofoam and covered in fabric.

Other artists being featured in Year of the Craft Textiles include: Deane Brebruer, Lois McLeod, Debbie Loewen, Robin Wiltse, Jean Brighouse, Donna Naprstek, and Janet Armstrong. The exhibition opens April 10 and runs until May 1. It is the first of three exhibitions at the gallery this year celebrating Year of the Craft.

LIFESTYLES Claude Awad and his herd caused some excitement when they came grazing at Revelstoke Mountain Resort on Saturday. "I don't have a lot of land so I have to take them out for walks and get them fresh grazing whenever I can," he said. He currently has three sheep and two goats, but the sheep are pregnant so he's expecting more in the near future. Rob Elliott, the general manager of RMR, said they were "experimenting" with having the sheep at the resort.

"It's fun and we're going to let him try it out," he said. ~ Photo by Alex Cooper

Sometimes when a band breaks up, good things happen. Take Back Alley Jazz. The local jazz quartet formed out of the ashes of two other local jazz bands, when three members from Fourth Street Jazz joined together with three members of Turtle Mountain.

“We heard each other play a couple of times," Carl Laurence told me over a beer at the Taco Club last week. "It was a get together and things just started.”

I met Laurence and Dave Marfleet last week to talk about their two-year-old music group ahead of Back Alley Jazz's upcoming gig at the Regent Hotel this Friday.

Laurence plays trombone, trumpet and sings, Marfleet plays bass, Darcy Purcell plays guitar and Matt Yaki holds down the beat on the drums in the group. Cathy Cameron-Suchy and Sylvain Hebert are past members of the group.

Laurence said "creative differences" with previous bandmates resulted in the sextet coming together. Marfleet and Laurence also played together at the jam nights Marfleet hosted at Benoit's Wine Bar. Back Alley Jazz's name comes from the fact their first gig together was on the patio of Benoit's.

The group started off playing jazz standards and have slowly added more modern jazz songs to their repertoire.

“We started with what we knew, what we were playing in the other bands," said Marfleet. "What makes this outfit different is we’re taking a more modern approach. We’re playing more funk. We still keep the core, but we break away from it sometimes.”

Three out of the four current members of the group went to music school at Humber College in Toronto. Only Laurence, a Revelstoke Secondary School graduate, is self-taught, though recently he has been taking singing and music theory lessons with Judy Lillace.

While the members all enjoy a variety of music, they bonded over jazz. “I love rock, classic rock, funk – anything horn driven, really," said Laurence.

“I find commercial music is great if you can play it, but jazz is what you study," said Marfleet.

I asked how they decide what songs to play. They replied saying they look for songs with a groove, and they'll e-mail each other with suggestions. If they like it, they'll give it a go at practice and see what happens.

“We have songs we’ve never played before and we run through it once and it’s like we’ve been playing it for years. Those are keepers," said Laurence. “When its driving like that, I get chills.

When I play and I listen to Darcy playing and I’m completely lost in what he’s doing."

The group plays songs by the likes of Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Freddie Hubbard and Donald Byrd — some of the legends of modern jazz.

"I think those artists, some of them have transcended the old to the new," said Marfleet. "Herbie played with Freddie Hubbard before he played with Miles, and then he got into funk. Just like they progressed, we’re progressing.”

Laurence and Marfleet both praised their bandmates. They described Purcell as a fantastic jazz and blues guitarist, while lauding Yaki's drum skills.

“Matt really brings it together. He can play so many different sounds, and it makes it easy to

One thing they stressed is that they always play songs a little differently — the solos are always improvised but they'll also play around with the structure of a song.

“When I get going on my solo, Matt picks it up the ground, Darcy gets more engaged and the energy grows," said Laurence.

“It’s going to be captivating," said Marfleet. "It’s going to be like something you’d see in a jazz club in the big city. It’s not going to be loud, we’re not going to make your ears bleed. You don’t need ear plugs. Hopefully it makes you laugh and maybe you’ll feel some of the things we feel when we play these tunes, because it feels really good.”

Calgary venture capital firm to pitch to golf club ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com The group behind a proposal to run the Revelstoke Golf Club is a Calgary-based investment capital firm.

Larry Shelley from Citrus Capital Partners will be making a pitch to the golf club membership at a meeting at the community centre this Wednesday, April 8, at 7 p.m.

Shelley declined to speak to the Review before press time.

Alan Mason, the City of Revelstoke's director of economic development, said Shelley had contacted him about the golf course.

He said Shelley had a history in Revelstoke.

"He said he'd been reading stories about the golf course and he's interested in helping out," said Mason.

A meeting was held with the golf club executive, and Shelley was invited to speak to the members as a group. "Nothing is going to happen without the membership onside," said Mason. "If there's support for

it, and everything went ahead his company would enter into a lease with the city."

Citrus Capital Partners describes itself as "an organization of successful & experienced business people from Western Canada who have come together to invest in the Western Canadian economy, and contribute their knowledge and abilities to work with mid-sized companies in an effort to achieve a higher level of success."

"We are not a fund-based group looking to fulfill our annual quotas — instead, each

and every investment is unique and is undertaken on a one-on-one basis, matching our partner investments with their individual skill sets to maximize the value proposition."

Shelley is a chartered accountant, former chairman of the Community of Cochrane Recreational Development Committee, and past-President of the Rotary Club of Calgary. His background is listed as being in construction, resource extraction, the energy sector, environmental management and franchise operations.

U14 skiers compete in multi-national Whistler Cup race KARL KLASSEN

Revelstoke Ski Club On April 3–5, Revelstoke’s U14 ski team ended their racing season at the 23rd annual Whistler Cup, where more than 400 skiers from 26 countries competed in North America’s premier youth race. The weather was unsettled all weekend but racing conditions on the upper mountain were good and as always, the Whistler Ski Club and Whistler-Blackcomb Resort hosted a great event.

In the U14 category there were more than 130 racers in each of the men’s and women’s events.

Friday consisted of a dual slalom event for the boys and girls. On Saturday the boys ran a tworun combined-time slalom and the girls raced giant slalom. On Sunday the boys moved to the GS course and the girls switched to slalom.

No Revelstoke athletes made the top 16 cut for Friday’s dual slalom but Aleks Klassen came close with a 22nd in the qualifying round. On

Saturday Jenna Knight came up with a 35th in GS, while in the boy’s slalom Aleks again broke the top 30 coming in at 25th, and Colm Molder broke the top 50 at 43rd.

Sunday proved a challenge for everyone with Aleks just missing the top 30 in GS followed by Colm at 52nd, while on the slalom course Jenna came in 51st.

First year teammates Lowell Schmidt, John Sidjak, Nolan Gale, and Sophia Humphries put in a great effort all weekend against a deep field of talented international competitors.

“Aleks, Colm, and Jenna skied well,” said head coach Ned Lazarevic. “And the whole team gained valuable experience competing against top racers from around the world. We’re in a good position to have a great season next year.”

Revelstoke’s FIS skiers are at the final Keurig Cup event in Panorama this week. We wish them Revelstoke's U14 team in Whistler following the athlete's parade. From left: luck at their final race of the season.

Obituaries Malcolm John Newlands

Malcolm John Newlands passed away at Mt. Cartier Court Extended Care, Revelstoke on Saturday, March 28th, 2015 at the age of 90 years.

There will be no formal funeral service by Malcolm’s own request. Interment of Malcolm’s cremated remains will take place later this year.

Malcolm was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on April 28, 1924. Malcolm served in the British Military during the Second World War with the Medical Corp in India. Malcolm had a fish market business in Edinburgh after the war, where he met his wife Jessie while she was walking the “beat� as a police women in Leith. Malcolm moved to Canada in 1960, first working on the Kootenay Lake ferries and then moving to take up residency in Revelstoke in 1964. Malcolm built a new home in Arrow Heights and his family was the first to live in the new subdivision. Malcolm worked for the Dept. of Highways Ministry and would later retire as Office Manager. Malcolm was instrumental in obtaining funding for the construction of Revelstoke’s swimming pool, which saw heavy use until the new recreational center was constructed.

Malcolm was an active member of the Shrine Club and Masonic Lodge for over 30 years. He loved horses and was an avid horseman and member of the Selkirk Saddle club for many years.

Malcolm was predeceased by his wife Jessie in 2010. He is survived by his son Callum (Joanne) and granddaughter Mackenzie of Mission and daughter Jane (Wade) Klody and grandson Eric of Harrison Hot Springs, B.C. The family would like to thank Debbie McDonald and Leah Parker for all their support provided over the years. They would also like to thank the staff and volunteers of Queen Victoria Hospital and Mt. Cartier Court Extended Care for all their care and concern shown to Malcolm.

Messages of sympathy may be sent to Malcolm’s family by viewing his obituary at www.brandonbowersfuneralhome.com Cremation arrangements are in the care of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home, Revelstoke.

Thank You

When a community of friends has been so helpful and caring, how does one thank them sufficiently. With every expression of sympathy and remembrance of David, with your lovely cards and e-messages, telephone calls and visits, you have revived David's spirit for me and helped ease this ache in my heart.

Your thoughtfulness and generosity, as with donations of food for our family, are all deeply appreciated.

I am so grateful to Gary and Chrissie Sulz for their compassionate guidance on behalf of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home.

Friends who have maintained contact with David through his years in care, your visits, cards, gifts, your thoughts and prayers, all will have a special place in my heart.

Please accept my heartfelt thank you for every kindness given to me and our family in memory of my husband David.

Sincerely, Miriam Williams
