Artists face off at battle

Grand Forks Gazette

Top artists from around the Boundary are expected to battle it out at gallery 2 to find out who is the best. The competition is called Art Battle and it goes down May 9 at the gallery. In the competition, 12 local artists will do the best work they can do in 20 minutes and the audience votes for their favourite. “We are a nation-wide live arts event,” said organizer Shannon Frederick. “There are local organizers all across the country. We all link up for our national championship at the end of the art battle season. Frederick says there are art battles going on across Canada going on from September to June. In June, the art battle winners will be brought together for a provincial competition in Vancouver. The winners there will compete at the national competition. Frederick said the event has become popular on the Lower Mainland with several events in Vancouver and in Victoria. She said there have also been events in Chilliwack, Kelowna and Penticton. “There are three rounds and each round is 20 minutes long,” said Frederick. “Events have 10 or 12 local artists broken up into two different groups. The first group features the first six artists. The artists paint in front of the audience who vote for their favourite painting. We then have the second round of painters. They paint and the audience votes.” The third round is the final featuring the winners of the first two rounds facing up. “Again, they have 20 minutes to paint and the audience votes and determines the winner of the night.” Frederick said the competition is free for the artists, although they do have to apply online with a sample image of their work. “We supply the canvas and the paint for our competitors,” she said. “It’s up to the painters to provide their own brushes, tools, implements to paint with. The only rule is nothing mechanical. So no spray bottles, no airbrushes, no fans. That kind of thing.” Frederick said the time limit adds a different element to the painting. “Paintings usually take hours and hours,” she said. “Also, artists don’t paint in front of people. So this really takes the painters out of their comfort zone but it’s a real adrenal rush.” All the works that have been created will be available at the end of the night through a silent auction. “Most often all the works sell and Art Battle splits the money 50/50 with the artist,” said Frederick. Tickets for the event are available on their website at www.artbattle.ca/276-grandforks/ Frederick said there are only a limited amount of tickets and she urges people to get their tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. There are a few painters already signed up but anyone wishing to enter can still do so at the same website.

Van brings sea life to students CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

Perley Elementary School students got the chance to see aquatic life up close on Earth Day Wednesday (April 22). The Vancouver Aquarium’s mobile classroom, Aquavan, was at the school all day and students got to hear presentations and get a close look at many sea creatures. The program featured four educators presenting to all the students about aquatics featuring live animals, artifacts and activities. The intention of the program is to inspire young Canadians to build connections with aquatic life so they can become stewards of their environment. Among the live invertebrates the students got to see and, in some cases touch, were: heart crab, green sea urchin, painted sea anemone, leather sea star, Bering hermit crab, leafy hornmouth snail and wrinkled dogwinkle snail. The kids also got to see whale bones and baleen. The Perley PAC sponsored the event. Tobi Reid, Aquavan coordinator, said the students from Perley were very engaged and asked lots of great questions. “It’s been a great reception. It’s really great and rewarding for us to bring the ocean to landlocked communities and make connections between these communities and the ocean. What better way to celebrate Earth Day than to bring some live animals

from the coast.” Reid said it was very promising that the students asked about how they could best protect the sea creatures. Perley was the only stop for the Aquavan in the Kootenay Boundary. Since 1994, over 400,000 students and community members have shared up close and personal experiences with live aquatic animals using the Aquavan. Grade 7 students Lucas Wodyga and Ethan Lovegrove enjoyed the experience of seeing and learning about the various sea creatures. “I thought the display was quite nice, especially on Earth Day,” said Wodyga. “It was quite an awesome display seeing the sea urchins and other sea creatures.” Wodyga said he is disappointed that humans have made such a mess of the oceans such that much sea life is threatened. Lovegrove said he liked hearing the presentations and learning about the sea. “I think they did a very good job at the display and the descriptions,” he said. Wodyga’s favourite part was seeing the whale teeth and bones. “I didn’t know they had just bristles and not teeth,” he said. “It was pretty cool.” He also enjoyed seeing and touching the sea creatures, which he felt were “slimy and hard, which was really cool.” “It was weird too because I hadn’t seen those creatures before,” he added.

Motions designed to streamline meetings COUNCIL BRIEFS

Questions must be on point

Citizens who wish to ask questions at the conclusion of regular council meetings will have to keep queries on point. A motion, brought forward at the regular council meeting April 20 by Councillor Michael Wirischagin, stated that: Be it resolved that council reaffirms its current position that all questions asked during the question period of the public be directed on the mayor, and the questions be on point and only in reference to an item on the agenda discussed during the meeting. The motion passed unanimously. Motion to remove question period from COTW defeated

Residents will still be allowed to ask questions at the end of the Committee of the Whole meetings during question period after a motion from Wirischagin was defeated. The motion read: Be it resolved that because the public is offered the opportunity to participate throughout the meeting session, that council directs staff to remove the “questions from the public”, at the conclusion of the COTW meeting, as it is a redundancy. Wirischagin was the only member of council to vote for the motion. Councillors will no longer present verbal reports

In a narrow 4-3 vote, councillors will no long present verbal reports during meetings. The motion, brought forward by Wirischagin, stated: Be it resolved that all council reports, other than motions, be no longer in a verbal presentation, but only as a written format; and further that if a council member chooses to have council report presented then it should be written and submitted to staff no later than Wednesday at 10 a.m. before a council meeting to be attached to the agenda package for those interested to read at their leisure. Voting for the motion were councillors Wirischagin, Chris Hammett, Chris Thompson and Neil Krog. Voting against were councillors Julia Butler, Colleen Ross and Mayor Frank Konrad. CARIP

Grand Forks continues to be proactive towards reducing their carbon footprint.

By Craig Lindsay

Council received a survey from the Climate Action Revenue Incentive Program (CARIP) at the regular council meeting on April 20. The online survey must be completed and submitted to the province. The two survey includes two parts: Climate Actions Survey and the Carbon Neutral Progress Survey. The surveys provide the opportunity for local governments to describe actions undertaken in 2014, and planned for 2015, to reduce green house gas emissions and create more complete, compact and energy efficient communities. Some of the actions for 2014 included: assessments of the fire hall and public works lighting, although due to budgetary constraints they were not implemented; City Hall lighting replaced with LED, new HVAC computer controlled heating and cooling system, new insulation on all levels; and implementation of an aeration and drought resistant seed in parks plan to reduce water consumption.

A presentation of poetry Alex Semenoff reads a poem at the Poetry Cafe held at the Grand Forks and District Public Library on Thursday. The event, which was hosted by the Grand Forks Writers’ Guild, featured many great poets reading poetry both original and not.

First and second reading of bylaw amendment 1606-2 Council gave first and second reading to zoning bylaw amendment 1606-A3, 2015. The bylaw rezones property located at 83264th Ave. from the current R-1 (single and two-family residential) to R-4 (rural residential). The motion passed unanimously. Water rates

Council addressed a couple of amendments to the water regulation bylaw at the regular council meeting on April 20. In the meeting, council passed the first three readings to bylaw 2014 water regulation amendment, which amends the 2015 water rates. Effective July 1, water rates will increase 2.4 per cent. For residential customers, this increase equates to $1.65 per billing or $9.90 per year. The increase in water rates will allow the city to put $10,000 into the capital reserve in 2015 for infrastructure replacement. There have been two changes to the bylaw: section 10.1 on bylaw 1973 has been deleted and replaced with a similar section that clarifies that water meters will remain the property of the City of Grand Forks. Also, schedule A, section 1 d) iii) has been added to include a $150 flat fee for inspections and/or pressure testing.

iNSIGHT your news view

Time will tell

Grand Forks council meetings are about to become much shorter and quite likely less interesting. Several motions were introduced on April 20 by Councillor Michael Wirischagin meant to curb “grandstanding” by councillors and streamline the meetings. Among those which passed is a motion stating that councillors will not provide verbal reports and instead must prepare written reports. Sure there is a propensity for councillors to “grandstand” and talk about their favourite issue and promote their personal agenda. Reports can also take a long time as councillors over-report as they talk about every little meeting and get-together in the past couple of weeks. However, the great thing about the reports was that they gave the audience a chance to hear from councillors in a less formal way. Councillors now have A LITTLE fewer chances to show their individual PERSPECTIVE personalities and let people know what is happening around town. How many citizens will bother to pour through the council agenda to read the councillor reAnother ports? Not to mention that a report tends Perspective to not capture someone’s personality and quirks as well as a verbal, live report. PAT KELLY Pat Another of Michael’s motions which passed was the motion to reaffirm that KELLY I am going to move back all questions from the audience during to the United States where question period must be on topic. BaI hailed from some 45 years sically, this is already on the books but ago. I spent 40 of those years here in the Boundary. Now council feels it must stress that this time family stuff calls me back; my they will really, really mean it. Let’s face mother and my sister need me it, the chair of the meeting (the mayor) down in Oregon. is the one who must put his foot down But think I have stayed and keep residents on task during queslong enough in the Boundtion period and any other time during a ary to be a local. In fact it was council meeting. a local family up Sidley way The motion to remove questions from with the same last name as the public at the end of the Committee of mine who helped land me a the Whole meetings was defeated.

The foreman dospeak at any time during COTW meeting the hiring knew what hard ings so having them ask questions at the workers the Kellys were—so end was redundant. Clearly, the rest of he picked me. I told him, not council didn’t agree. right away though. Not until I Whether the motions that passed will was able to prove that I could streamline council meetings and keep be a good worker too. things moving and on task is still to be determined.

Thank you for the memories—happy trails, all I spent somewhere around 30 years working at the Midway sawmill. It was a tough job, and it took a long time but I was finally successful at driving that company out of business. A year later, just about the same time that my unemployment enjoyment ran out, it was a fortunate thing that a part-time reporter job came open at the Boundary Creek Times. Even more fortunate was the fact that the morning the boss had scheduled an interview with me, the full-time reporter quit and left town. Needless to say the owners and now good friends, Chuck and Karen Bennett, found themselves desperate enough that they gave me the job. Fulltime! Special K was pleased. Seven years later it is time to move on. It was a really good job to have. I got to go to everybody’s party; even

better, I usually didn’t have to help decorate the hall or stay to clean up. Also—often food was involved. Let me tell you, this is a dream job. Better than all of that seven years of partying and such, were the great friendships I have made. And all I had to do was show up and be both nosey and friendly at the same time. Once I got into covering the hopes, happenings and happenstance of the Boundary I came to appreciate what a tremendous blessing a sense of community can be. I would hope that sense of community could be nurtured across the entire Boundary (both East and West) in the years ahead. There are some amazing people here—please continue to network, leverage and find ways to help each other discover their own amazing.

I’ve every confidence he is going to do a fantastic job for the paper and the Boundary. One thing about doing seven years as a reporter for a community newspaper is that everybody has a good chance to get to know who you are. You could say that Mike Duffy and I have some similarities: we’re both media guys, both well-known, good-looking and such and, since I am about to pull stakes and head south, there seems to be some question in both our cases about residency. Let’s hope the similarity end there. Happy trails, all. Thanks for letting me help share your stories with each other.

Opinion

Editor, The Gazette: The recent article in the Grand Forks Gazette celebrating the public funding of the invasive weed program is one of many examples of pathetic behaviour by our politicians that showcase why it is virtually impossible to have an honest intelligent discussion of the management of our province’s natural resources. Cows traversing moderate steep grassland slopes create a major erosion problem which facilitates the spread of invasive weeds and yet this obvious problem is never brought forward in the never ending request for public money to address the problem. The problem is in your face if you drive up the Gilpin logging road in October or

better yet, park your vehicle at the Boothman Ranch home site and walk the gas line to the eastern boundary of the Gilpin Grassland Park in November. Politics is described as the art of compromise so would it not be smart for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary leaders responsible for the Kettle River Management Plan which has cost the taxpayer $250,000 to invite ranchers to a public meeting and make the case that future public funding of the Invasive Weed Program will only be supported if ranchers start a dialogue to remove domestic animals from the major tributaries of the Kettle River? Barry Brandow, Grand Forks

Editor, The Gazette: I have lived in the Boundary for a good 20 years. Weed spray programs date back at least that long. Memories of the Vietnam War even longer. There, to this day, there are special hospitals for children born with life-incapacitating diseases and defects due to Agent Orange of which 2,4-D (previously applied in the Boundary) is an active ingredient. To this day we proudly announce massive grants for weed spray programs that are repeated every year. Is there something someone just does not get? The programs are not effective. If you repeat something for that long and it does not work, is there a learning deficit?

Why can all those dollars gifted to the likes of Monsanto, Dow, and Bayer not be invested in sustainable projects? There is no away on this planet. These poisons do not just evaporate. They are absorbed by every life form, from the fragile tree frog to the cattle and deer on the range. Do we have to be like the Great Poisoners of Florence? These are erroneously called spray programs. Please in the future call them by their real name: poisoning programs. Shame, blasted shame for such inconsiderate treatment of the earth. Only one planet to muck. What will we do to make a buck? Angelica Herlihy, Grand Forks

April 22 was the 45th anniversary of Earth Day and it passed quietly in Boundary Country. Why was that the case? Has our concern about Earth waned to the extent that talking about it in open forums is passe? Has it served its purpose? Earth Day evolved over a period of seven years starting in 1962. Up until that time the Rousing environment had been a non-issue in the Unitthe Rabble ed States and Senator Gaylord Nelson (United ROY RONAGHAN States Senate) made it his mission to change the situation. He argued that the environment should be given attention in the political arena and he persuaded President John F. Kennedy to give it visibility on a national scale. The president did include the environment in his speeches when he toured but it failed to get the expected attention. Not to be dissuaded, Nelson announced in September 1969 that there would be a nationwide grassroots demonstration on behalf of the environment on April 22, 1970 and extended an invitation to everyone to celebrate “in any way they want.” At an address in Denver, Nelson stated, “Our goal is not just an environment of clean air and water and scenic beauty. The objective of decency, quality and mutual respect for all other human beings and all living creatures.” According to online reports, the first Earth Day was the largest ever expression of public sentiment on a political issue in the history of the United States. It focused attention on environmentalism and prepared the way for rather ambitious environmental laws that were unheard of up until that time. In the years following 1970, polluted waterways were cleaned up, the pesticide DDT was banned, pollution in cities became a public concern and cleanup programs were launched. Nelson’s idea took off. Americans finally had an opportunity to talk about what was happening to the land, rivers, lakes and air. The idea spread around the world. Since the 1970s and 1980s, Earth Day has ceased to be a day of protest against corporate exploitation yet conditions on Earth have continued to deteriorate. James Hansen, a renowned climatologist, calls what we face today, “the predominant moral issue of the century”. Naomi Klein, author and activist who has achieved prominence with the publication of her recent book This Changes Everything, and Johann Hari, a British journalist, argue that the environmental movement was hijacked by corporate styled environmental groups when they formed an alliance known as the U.S. Climate Action Partnership (USCAP) in 2007 with Duke Energy, DuPont, General Electric (GE), and General Motors (GM). The alliance took the lead in the development of a market-based approach to climate legislation. Cap-and-trade was one of the products of the legislation and it eventually faltered in 2010 under pressure from environmental groups. The USCAP website provides a list of 26 members that includes some familiar corporations with questionable track records when their histories are known: The Dow Chemical Company, DuPont, National Resource Defense Council, Shell, The Nature Conservancy, Rio Tinto, Pepsico, and Johnson & Johnson. Earth Day in 2015 had a completely different meaning from the first Earth Day and perhaps that is why it didn’t get much attention. People adopted a “what’s the use” attitude. In her acceptance speech at a ceremony where she was awarded an Izzy, (named after journalist I.F. Stone) Naomi Klein stated, “What’s the use of talking about the pollution of air and water when we live under a precarious balance of terror which can, in an hour’s time, make the entire Northern Hemisphere of our planet unlivable. There’s no use talking about Earth Day until we begin to think like Earthmen. Not as Americans and Russians, not as blacks and whites, not as Jews and Arabs, but as fellow travelers on a tiny planet in an infinite universe.” Now that is a challenge worth taking on! Are there Earthwomen or Earthmen willing to do so?

Driver leads police home POLICE BRIEFS

By Craig Lindsay

Not safe at home On April 4 at 7:59 p.m., police observed a speeding vehicle travelling east on Central Avenue. “The police vehicle turned around and tried to stop the vehicle,” said Cpl. Richard Lanz of the Grand Forks RCMP detachment. “The lights on the police vehicle were activated and the vehicle did not stop. Police sirens were activated but the vehicle continued and went through some stop signs.” Lanz said the vehicle continued travelling in excess of 50 km/h and up to 75 km/h in a residential area. “The vehicle proceeded to his residence and the driver got out of the vehicle,” he said. “He appeared to be staggering while he was heading for his residence. The male was apprehended for impaired driving. The member was assisted by two off-duty members for the arrest.” Lanz said the driver was issued an automatic driver’s prohibition and will be appearing in court at a later date for refusing to provide a breath sample, impaired driving and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. The driver is a 38-year-old male from Grand Forks.

Mischief near 28 Mile Bridge On April 20 at 2:14 p.m. police responded to a call about mischief which occurred at the 28 Mile Bridge area to some heavy duty equipment parked in the area. “Some windows were broken and some gas was stolen,” said Lanz. “A fair amount of damage occurred.” Any residents seeing anyone messing around with equipment in these areas are urged to call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288. Garage broken into

On April 20 at 2:14 p.m. police were called to a report of a garage being broken into on 10th Street. “Once the suspects were in the garage they rifled through a vehicle that was parked inside,” said Lanz. “It appears nothing had been stolen.” The police would like to remind people to make sure their vehicles and garages are always locked.

There was very minor damage to the front bumper of the semi. City crews were called out to repair the power pole. There were no charges.

Creative ways to help your children enjoy vegetables:

• Plant a garden with your child. Let them help care for the plants, harvest the ripe vegetables, and wash and prepare them. They will probably be much more interested in eating what they helped to grow. • Slip grated or diced vegetables into favorite foods. Try adding them to rice, cottage cheese, cream cheese, guacamole, or even macaroni and cheese. Zucchini pancakes are a big hit at our house, as are carrot muffins. • Camouflage vegetables with a favorite sauce. • Use vegetables as finger foods and dip them in a favorite sauce or dip. • Using a small cookie cutter, cut the vegetables into interesting shapes. • Steam your greens. They are much more flavorful and usually sweeter than when raw. • Make veggie art. Create colorful faces with olive- slice eyes, tomato ears, mushroom noses, bell-pepper mustaches, and any other playful features you can think of. Our eighth child, Lauren, loved to put olives on the tip of each finger. “Olive fingers” would then nibble this nutritious and nutrient-dense food off her fingertips. Zucchini pancakes make a terrific face to which you can add pea eyes, a carrot nose, and cheese hair. • Concoct creative camouflages. There are all kinds of possible variations on the old standby “cheese in the trees” (cheese melted on steamed broccoli florets). Or, you can all enjoy the pleasure of veggies topped with peanut butter sauce, a specialty of Asian cuisines. www.askdrsears.com

Carbon tax reimbursed CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

The City of Grand Forks has been rewarded for reducing greenhouse gases by receiving a grant for $7,866 from the provincial government. The money is part of the Climate Action Revenue Incentive Program (CARIP), which provides conditional grants to communities that have signed the Climate Action Charter and supports their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Communities that report publicly on their progress toward meeting their climate action goals are eligible to receive a grant equivalent to 100 per cent of the carbon tax they pay directly. “This is a great example of the province and local governments working toward the common goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions,” said Linda Larson, Boundary-Similkameen MLA.

“Our government is committed to communities that take the lead in the field of climate change.” Roxanne Shepherd, chief financial officer for Grand Forks, said CARIP is a calculation of carbon tax paid directly by the local government for fuel purchased between Jan. 1 and Dec. 1, 2014. “The city keeps records of the carbon tax we pay through the year and submits it in a report to the province,” said Shepherd. “The province then reimburses us. The $7,866 was for 2014. Currently, the money is going into general revenue.” Shepherd adds that the city also calculates their carbon footprint at $25/tonne and puts that money into a carbon reserve each year for projects which help the city meet their carbon neutral commitment. “For 2014, the city put in $7,150 into the carbon reserve,” she said.

Telus investing $1.2 million Gazette Staff

Telus is investing $1.2 million in new communications infrastructure in Grand Forks this year. The investment is to meet growing demand for high-speed Internet services, update every wireless site in the community to 4G LTE, and enhance Optik TV service, announced Telus in a press release last week. “The demand for Internet and wireless services continues to explode in Grand Forks, and our investment this year will build upon the sustained work of past years to continue increasing the speed and capacity of our networks throughout the community,” said Steve Jenkins, Telus general manager for the Southern Interior, in the release. “Our networks also provide the communications backbone for critical services such as education and health care, which will benefit people right here in Grand Forks for years to come.” The City of Grand Forks was pleased to hear

the news. “This project is a great news story for our community,” Mayor Frank Konrad said in a press release. “We’re really excited about this project as access to this technology will help spur growth and create opportunities in Grand Forks, now and in the future. Our residents and businesses will benefit form the faster Internet speeds and enhanced communications and entertainment services.” In Grand Forks this year and beyond, Telus will: • Upgrade every wireless site to 4G LTE; • Continue to rapidly deploy 700MHz wireless spectrum to further increase capacity; • Commence planning for how to best put Telus’ newly-purchased AWS-3 spectrum to work adding much-needed wireless capacity; • Increase the speed, capacity and availability of Internet services for homes and businesses; • Enhance Telus’ Future Friendly Home solutions.

WildSafeBC awarded funding SUBMITTED

to the Grand Forks Gazette

Every year British Columbians are involved in human-wildlife conflicts. To reduce these potentially dangerous situations, the province is awarding WildSafeBC $275,000 to provide education and increase awareness in communities. As the days get longer and the weather gets warmer, British Columbians are spending more time outdoors, increasing the chances of humanwildlife conflict. The majority of these encounters are with bears emerging from hibernation and looking for food. Other wildlife—such as cougars, coyotes and wolves—are becoming more active, and increasing the potential for conflict. This provincial funding will allow WildSafeBC to support more than 100 communities throughout B.C. in their efforts to reduce human-wildlife conflicts. This year, 22 coordinators (Laurie Grant is our local coordinator) will provide presentations to community groups, schools and residents, offering educational tips to reduce these conflicts. WildSafeBC is designed, owned and delivered by the B.C. Conservation Foundation. The primary objective is keeping wildlife wild and communities safe by arming British Columbians with the tools necessary to discourage wildlife from lingering in residential areas. Locking up garbage, picking ripe fruit and installing sensor lights are a few ways to keep wildlife moving through urban areas. The Conservation Officer Service (COS) is

B.C.’s primary responder to human-wildlife conflicts where there is a risk to public safety, conservation concerns, or where significant property damage has occurred. The COS is working closely with local governments and co-ordinators to identify and resolve wildlife-related issues in B.C. communities. In 2014-15, the Conservation Officer Service received 29,200 calls regarding human-wildlife conflicts. Of those calls, 17,771 involved bears. Quick Facts: • Communities where attractants are managed properly have seen a decline in related human-wildlife conflicts, and in the number of animals that have to be destroyed. • The most effective and natural way to reduce WILDSAFEBC COORDIhuman-wildlife interac- NATOR LAURIE GRANT tion is to properly manage food attractants such as garbage, birdseed, compost, pet food and fruit so they are not accessible to wildlife. • Relocating wildlife is neither viable nor a long-term solution in managing these kinds of conflicts. Often, relocated wildlife will return to conflict situations or will not survive competing with already established populations. • The British Columbia Conservation Foundation has administered WildSafeBC (formerly Bear Aware) since 1998.

Cabaret show sure to entertain MICHELE DEAN

Submitted to the Gazette

“There is nothing to do in this town!” To receive a quarter every time this was said would add up to a tidy sum. Regardless of what naysayers are looking for, if they are looking for an exciting, fun evening out, with glamorous live entertainment, delicious appies, drinks and dancing, an opportunity to dress up AND win cool prizes, they need look no further. Saturday, May 9, Grand Forks will be a nightlife hot spot at the Masonic Lodge where local dance troupe Rara Avis Dancers hosts The Rare Bird Revue. Dress up in your “night on the town” best, or a hot cabaret nightclub get-up and be eligible to win great prizes. Great dance tunes will inspire you to move on the open dance floor. Costumes and getting up to strut your stuff is optional. A nightclub atmosphere and tables to relax and nibble on snacks while you sit back and enjoy the show featuring local dance troupes is a great way to relax after a busy week if you aren’t one to shake your booty on the dance floor. Troupes have been preparing their sauciest numbers for you to great Broadway burlesque and jazz songs such as Be Italian and I’m a Good Girl. Your local dance ladies are donning their fishnets and bustiers and pulling out all the stops. You don’t want to miss this great show and dance event. The show takes place at the Masonic Lodge in downtown Grand Forks, right next door to Body Edge Fitness. Doors and bar open at 7 p.m., the show starts at 8 p.m. Advance tickets are $15 at Thistle Pot Gifts in Grand Forks, and at the door, space permitting, $20.

Credit Union gives $28,000 Grand Forks Credit Union used their Donor Advised endowment to support the Grand Forks Rotary Club’s Spray Park Project. Presenting the $28,000 cheque at Rotary on Thursday morning were George Longden, grants committee chair for the Phoenix Foundation, and Gary Smith, chair of the Phoenix Foundation. Receiving the cheque are Lynne Burch, chair of the Rotary Spray Park Fundraising Committee, and Wayne Christensen, Rotary Club president. Craig Lindsay photo

Tom Thomson exhibit opens at gallery SUBMITTED

to the Grand Forks Gazette

Gallery 2 Art and Heritage Centre is pleased to present “Tom Thomson and the Grey Canoe” exhibition, curated by Ted Fogg. This exhibition provides an introduction to the 1911-17 time period in the life and art of Tom Thomson: from his employment as a graphic designer at Grip, to his establishment as one of Canada’s foremost landscape artists, to his influence on the development of the Group of Seven. The majority of his painted sketches were produced in Ontario’s Algonquin Provincial Park and much of the landscape he and his fellow artists depicted was only accessible by water. The canoe was as important to the

G N I R P

artistic development of Tom Thomson as his brushes and tubes of paint. Thomson traveled thousands of miles by canoe: as a painter, a fishing guide, a park ranger and for his personal enjoyment. This exhibition includes a short history of the canoe from indigenous First Nations use to the development of the “white-man” canoe with particular attention to the Chestnut Canoe Company, the builder of choice for Thomson. The focus of this exhibition is on the man, his love of canoeing the rivers and lakes of Ontario, his passion for painting, and his deep friendships. The video, photographs, text panels, and letters provide a window into his relationship with the landscape he experienced and his friends and fellow painters who encouraged his

artistic development as they paddled, sketched, and fished with him. This exhibit is unique to the gallery and will feature a fully restored, circa 1960, 4.8-metre (16-foot) Guide Special Chestnut Canoe similar to the one used by Tom Thomson. The restoration was completed by Mike Elliott of the Kettle River Canoes of Grand Forks and donated as fundraiser for the gallery. The restored Chestnut canoe has a value of $7,000 and, with a limit of 200 raffle tickets, the odds of winning this beautiful canoe are very good. Come join us on Saturday, May 9 for the opening reception from 1-3 p.m. Mike Elliott, who kindly donated his time and the Chestnut canoe to this heritage exhibit, will be present for the opening.

TED INVICTUS

For the Grand Forks Gazette

Rivers’ Edge Theatre Society is pleased to announce they are in pre-production with Canadian playwright Caroline Smith’s award-winning script, The Kitchen Witches. The show stars Diane Korol as Isobel Lomax and Norma Bicknell as Dolly Biddle who are two “mature” cable-access cooking show hostesses who have hated each other for 30 years, ever since Larry Biddle dated one and married the other. When circumstances put them together on a TV show called The Kitchen Witches, the insults are flung harder than the food! Dolly’s long-suffering TV-producer son Stephen (Mike Tollis) tries to keep them on track, but as long as Dolly’s dressing room is one inch closer to the set than Isobel’s, it’s a losing battle, and the show becomes a rating smash as Dolly and Isobel top

both Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer!. The Rivers’ Edge cast is laughing its way through rehearsals and a merry team of volunteers are behind the scenes preparing to deliver to a stage near you the quality production our community has come to expect from Rivers’ Edge Theatre. The Kitchen Witches is a tour de force of fun and laughter that will be presented in partnership with Lisa’s Bistro as dinner theatre on May 27, 29 and 30 at the Christina Living Arts Centre at Christina Lake. Lisa’s Bistro has prepared an exciting menu to compliment the sweet and savory action you’ll discover on the stage. For fans of live theatre who want to see the show without dinner: June 4, 5, and 6 the production moves to The GEM Theatre in Grand Forks; and June 13 and 14 The Kitchen Witches will be serving their feast of fun at Greenwood’s McArthur Centre.

NOTICE

PICKLE BALL PROPOSAL IMPACTING BARBARA ANN PARK TENNIS COURTS The pickle ball group has requested that Council consider having the City re-purpose one of the tennis courts at Barbara Ann Park and install four (4) permanent pickle ball courts. The popularity of pickle ball is picking up and the local pickle ball community is growing rapidly both from residents and visitors alike. Pickle ball is recognized as a fast-paced game, great for hand-eye co-ordination, mental alertness and socializing. The pickle ball group currently plays at the Barbara Ann Park tennis courts during the spring, summer and early fall months. Temporary lines were painted within the tennis court lines a few years back but have become too confusing. The existing tennis court nets are too high as per pickle ball guidelines. The City would like your feedback regarding the request to eliminate one of the Barbara Ann Park tennis courts and resurface and paint on the pickle ball lines. Your opinion is important to us and we look forward to hearing from you. Please contact Sasha Bird, Manager of Development and Engineering, via email or telephone by 4:00 p.m. on May 14, 2015, to share your thoughts.

Local WI hosts conference SUBMITTED

to the Grand Forks Gazette

of Bridesville WI, Brenda Schmaltz of Rock Creek WI and Eloise Kingswood of Sunshine Valley WI. Secretary is Sharon Funnell and treasurer Ruth Champagne were re-appointed. As Womem’s Institutes are part of the Associated Country Women of the World, we support their projects, and passed a Loonie bowl around for donations to them. Sunslline Valley Wl members provided a noon luncheon with lots of choices both for savory and sweet foods. Each table setting had a small cosmetic travel bag, made by a SVWI member, with a sample Mary Kay product inside. Nancy Podmorow gave an interesting talk about the philosophy of Mary Kay Ash, founder of a very successful business and charitable foundation. Next year the spring conforence will be held in Bridesville.

Spring is the traditional time for a Women’s Institute conference in the Kettle River District, which encompasses branches from Rock Creek, Beaverdell, Bridesville and Grand Forks. This year it was Sunshine Valley turn in Grand Forks. The theme for the day was “Put Your Best Face Forward.” Nancy Podmorow, beauty consultant for Mary Kay products, had an information table and was guest speaker in the afternoon. Over 30 Women’s Institute (WI) members from the four branches and guests from Arden, Washington met in the Baptist Church Hall on Wednesday, April 22, decorated with spring flowers and WI posters and information. Entries for four competitions were judged by People’s Choice with the winners going on to the provincial level for further judging. The popular “branch five item display” of members’ handicrafts showed how talented the ladies are. Other sales tables offered plants, books and a silent auction, which were popular over lunch break. The business meeting was conducted efficiently by District President Norma Tilgner of Rock Creek and included five-minute reports by each branch and the president’s report, which confirmed all WI’s are busy “for home and country” in various ways. Life members were recognized, and service awards presented to Delores McNee and Ella Thate. The board for 2015-16 were installed and sworn in as follows: Life members were recognized, including Ella Thate (left) and president Marie Bourgh, Bridesville Jean Johnson of Sunshine Valley Women’s Institute. Of note is WI; directors Lynn McKillican of the quilt behind Thate, made by members of the local institute. Main River WI, Marje Robishaund Erna Gobbett photo

Notice of road maintenance, logging and log hauling operations in the Gilpin Grasslands and Morrissey Creek area. Logging, road-building, and road-maintenance operations in areas on and adjacent to the Gilpin and Dan O’Rea Forest Service Roads will commence on April 20th and carry on for a period of 2 - 3 months. There will be significant industrial traffic and road construction activity in this area, and the road may be closed to all vehicular traffic for lengthy periods as the main roads are upgraded. Interfor requests that members of the public avoid travelling these roads on weekdays during the duration of the project. If travel cannot be avoided, observe the procedures posted on “Haul Road Protocol” signs. Be sure to travel on the right side of the road and yield to oncoming industrial traffic.

IN BRIEF

Veterans recognized

Amanda Thate opens for Oak Ridge Boys in Vernon

Three veterans were recognized Saturday in a special presentation made by Royal Canadian Legion Branch 59 President Joe Tatangelo on behalf of Veterans Affairs. The pins and certificates were in recognition of the sacrifices they made for their country during the Second World War. Tatangelo made presentations to (at left) veteran Ed Boisvenue; (bottom left) to Donald Brothers, and (bottom right) to Herman Gagne.

Very few country music groups have had the enduring popularity, cultural significance, or crossover success that the Oak Ridge Boys have enjoyed. Openning the band’s Vernon show is Amanda Thate, a five-time BCCMA nominee who hails from Grand Forks. Country music fans will get the unique opportunity to see and hear the legendary group on June 7 at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre when the band brings their “Boys Night Out” tour to the city. Vernon is one of only two B.C. dates on this tour. Tickets are on sale now at the Ticket Seller box office or call 250-549-7469 or online at ticketseller.ca. The Oak Ridge Boys “Boys Night Out Tour” is presented by the Kootenay Concert Connection in association with the Vernon Morning Star and So Country.

Doucette a woman to watch CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

A Grand Forks Secondary (GFSS) grad is taking the business world by storm. Jill Doucette, who graduated from GFSS in 2004, owns her own environmental consulting firm and was recently named Victoria’s 2015 Woman to Watch. Doucette, who is 28 years old, enjoys returning to Grand Forks several times a year to visit friends and family. She grew up here and went to Hutton Elementary and then moved on to the high school. At GFSS she began to cultivate an interest in the sciences and took inspiration from teachers such as Mr. Nuyten, Mr. Farnsworth and Mr. Behl. “Mr. Nuyten really sparked my interest in biology,” she said. After graduating from high school, Doucette went to the University of Victoria where she graduated with a degree in biology in 2010. During her time at university she was able to try her hand at different jobs and gain some experience in her field before launching her own business. “I did some work in research, clean technology research, worked in the business faculty at UVic,” she said. “I had a number of jobs all to do with environmental research or business. All of that sort of pointed to what I wanted to do on my own, which is to help businesses reduce their environmental impact and become more integrated into communities. That’s why I started Synergy Enterprises, to focus on that work.” She launched the company in downtown Victoria right after graduating university. “It’s just been growing since,” said Doucette. “We’re opening a Vancouver office this summer. That’ll be a big challenge for us. That’ll be exciting but equally terrifying.” Doucette said the company mainly focuses on medium-sized businesses although they do work with smaller and large companies.

“Some of our clients have offices all over the world and thousands of staff while others are small coffee shops,” she said. “Really our model applies to a variety of scales. We work with any sector as well.” Doucette said their niche is working with companies that want to be leaders in their sector in sustainability. “They don’t want to just recycle and change light bulbs and all that,” she said. “It’s necessary but they want to break the mold and show that business can be done differently. They not only want to act on that and implement new strategies and green activities but also to share that with the rest of their sector.” Doucette said she really enjoys working with some of the most progressive businesses and help make changes in how they operate. “We work on a variety of environmental issues and solutions and work to actually implement them,” she said. “We’re metrics geeks so we’re always working to measure our client’s carbon footprint. We get excited when we work hard for a year and see real progress after that one year.” Doucette said she makes it a goal to spend at least two months in Grand Jo-

Forks. She sees a lot of potential in town with some of the new businesses springing up. “It’s always good to come home,” she said. “I think there’s been a lot of great new businesses come up and a lot of long-standing ones that are doing great. It’s cool to come back and see the local community.” Doucette loves how Grand Forks embraces its quirkiness. She also thinks it has a unique culture and unique landscape with a good mix of a small downtown core, agriculture and tourism with Christina Lake nearby. “It has such great diversity,” she said. Doucette was thrilled to learn she was named the 2015 Woman to Watch for Victoria. Her picture and story about the award appeared in the March 2015 Seaside Magazine. “I was nominated and they called and said I had won and I was really surprised,” she said. “The best part was going to the event and meeting all these incredible women in business who are running successful businesses all over Vancouver Island.” Doucette said it was really inspiring to hear the stories and struggles from the other women who were nominated.

Try a nutritional approach to allergies I have always been passionate about natural ways of staying healthy. Growing up in Russia, I developed a great interest for cooking at a young age thanks to my mom who taught me how to cook tasty meals from scratch. We never bought processed foods and had hardly any canned foods in our cupboards. When in Canada, my passion for food and nutrition led me to become a holistic nutritionist. I have now made Grand Forks my home and am excited about writing a monthly column for the Gazette about nourishing foods for health. The spring is finally here! For many of us this time of year means not only warm weather, sunshine and blooming trees, but also, unfortunately, the time when we have to deal with seasonal allergies. Our immune system’s primary task is to identify between what is beneficial for our body and what is foreign to it. When we have allergies, our immune system becomes hyper-reactive, responding to dust, pollen and other triggers, which normally it is supposed to tolerate. This exposure to allergic substances results in the release of histamine and other inflammatory chemicals, causing itchy and watery eyes, runny nose, conges-

tion and skin reactions. Many factors can contribute to allergic reactions, among NATASHA KURALESOVA them diet, stress and Registered Holistic our external environNutritionist ment. Luckily, there is a natural solution to managing allergies. I believe diet plays crucial role in prevention and minimizing seasonal allergies. Did you know that 80 per cent of our immune system cells is in the gut? So, it is vital to pay attention to our gastrointestinal tract and ensure proper digestion of foods when addressing allergies. Here are some dietary tips for easing you into the allergy season: Eat a variety of fresh, unprocessed foods. Drink plenty of clean filtered water. If you are aware of food sensitivities to specific foods (i.e. gluten, dairy, corn, eggs, etc.), eliminate those foods from your diet to help decrease the stress on the immune system (the allergic load). Opt for foods rich in antioxidants— substances that can help reduce the process of oxidation and cellular damage, which contribute to the weakened immune system. Their food sources are:

Grand Forks Gazette

There was plenty of basketball action Thursday evening at GFSS as the Boundary Basketball Development League players battled. The league goes twice a week for over seven weeks and features 40 players from grades 4-7. The players work on skills each Tuesday and

scrimmage on Thursdays. The league is made up of boys and girls from Grand Forks and Christina Lake. Organizer Scott Stewart said the league is for developing players’ skills and give them a head start for when they get to the high school. Helping Stewart coach are some players from the high school as well as community coaches.

Hockey fever hits the valley The Gazette is pleased to present part three of a three-part series on Boundary hockey history. Next week we feature a story specifically on Duncan McMillan ‘Mickey’ MacKay.

Last week’s puzzle solved

Gerry Foster

For the Grand Forks Gazette

In The Life and Times of Grand Forks by Alice and Jim Glanville they write, “Hockey fever infected the locals in the winter months as shown by the 488 paid admissions to a hockey game between Grand Forks and Greenwood on Jan. 27, 1910. The 150 Greenwood supporters came to Grand Forks on a CPR special train.” The Gazette reported in 1913, “Eight hundred attended a hockey game in Grand Forks, including 150 from Phoenix.” A second account from the Glanville Centennial History refers to a game on Feb. 11, 1914 when over 1,000 fans attended the contest between Phoenix and Grand Forks.

Joke of the Week: Q: What do you call a boomerang that doesn’t come back? A: A stick.

Administration Understandably the players on any team are the major focus but the faithful support of fans is a critical component to a team’s success. A third element that is necessary in achieving a winning formula is administration. From within a community gifted and committed persons must step forward to govern the operation of the club. This is as true today as it was a century ago. The historic photo of the 1913-14 Grand Forks championship roster includes the executive who offered leadership and assistance. The president was N.L. McInnes, owner of several businesses in the community including selling McLaughlin cars. One day, someone bet him $50 that his six-cylinder McLaughlin would not be able to make it to the top of Spencer Hill in high gear. This hockey

president accepted the challenge and picked up an easy $50 which would be around $1,100 today! [From The Life and Times of Grand Forks by Alice and Jim Glanville] The secretary of the team was T.A. (Tom) Love. In 1911 he moved down from Phoenix to become the editor of the Grand Forks Gazette. Love became very active in civic affairs as well as the hockey team. He was elected mayor of Grand Forks 13 times, served as an MLA in the provincial government and was also the chair of the school board. Love submitted the winning entry in a 1921 contest to choose a motto for the Grand Forks valley. Now you know who named this place the Sunshine Valley! Grand Forks Border Bruins The purpose of this article was to look back at the early development of hockey in the Boundary Country which was also the dawning of hockey in British Columbia. What a cherished piece of our history! However, another date needs to be highlighted in the overall history of hockey locally. On a hot summer day in 1969, representatives from Grand Forks and other communities met in Castlegar to formulate plans to establish a junior hockey league. Five teams including the Grand Forks Border Bruins officially launched the West Kootenay Junior Hockey League, 1969-70 being the inaugural season. Spokane joined in 1972, and the name was changed to the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. The KIJHL, with 20 teams, is now the largest Junior B League west of Southern Ontario. Many also believe it is the best. Conclusion Grand Forks and the Boundary are known for many things. There is much to commemorate in our history, our land and our people. In this commentary I have made the claim that when it comes to the origin and establishment of organized and top calibre ice hockey in Canada’s westernmost province look no further than this place.

Junior girls softball thrives CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

A couple of moms have stepped up to make sure the young females in Grand Forks and the area are able to play softball. When Jennifer Wetmore and Dayna Esson found out there would be no president of girls softball, they decided to step up and coach so that the younger girls (aged 7-14) would get a chance to play. Wetmore and Esson, who coached the junior girls last year, are glad to return to the field. “We volunteered to help last year because both of our girls were interested in starting up,” said Esson. “Our girls brought their friends out last year so we had 20 junior players come out, three quarters of whom were first-timers.” Esson said when no one stepped up to take responsibility for the league this year, they volunteered to coach. “Our daughters still wanted to play ball so we have volunteered again to keep those girls who want to play involved in the sport,” she said. “Softball is a great sport. It’s great for kids

who aren’t really aggressive physical players because there is no contact. It involves developing individual skill because you are responsible for covering a specific position. It encourages hand/ eye coordination as well as being part of a team.” Unfortunately, with the lack of a president, the senior girls fastpitch league will not be running this year although many of those girls are playing in the women’s fastball league. “A few of the players from the women’s league have left their previous teams to help create a new team in the league as well as to help mentor these young ladies,” said Esson. Esson said the junior girls league will feature everyone practicing together and then splitting into teams for scrimmage games. Sign-up for the junior girls fastpitch league is still on. The season starts May 5 and goes for six weeks ending June 18. The league is available to girls aged 7-14 from any community and the fee is $35. The group meets on Tuesdays and Thursday from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. at Dick Bartlett Park field #4. To register or for more information, email Dayna at desson@selkirk.ca or phone 250-442-2704.

Fastpitch league expands CRAIG LINDSAY

Grand Forks Gazette

It’s game on for the Boundary Women’s Softball League, which has grown to six teams this year. The teams play twice a week, Mondays and Wednesdays, rotating through ball parks throughout the Boundary. “All teams have some form of coaching staff and practices are held at various days and times when convenient,” said Darryl Funk, one of the coaches. “The league teams, players and coaches are all registered with Softball B.C. at the D level and play by the rules endorsed by this association.” Funk said the league plays by rules known as fastpitch softball where the pitchers are allowed

to use a windmill arm motion to deliver the ball to the batter. “The league expanded by two teams this year and absorbed a lot of new and returning talent so the excitement level is up,” said Funk. “Teams have shuffled members a bit, so new rivalries are being created.” Funk said that with the senior girls fastpitch league not running this year, the league has grown to allow those girls who wish to to keep playing. Upcoming schedule Monday, May 4 - Liquor Store Chicks at Lime Creek Ladies, Merchants at Beaverdell and Borderline at Rock Creek. Wednesday, May 6 - Liquor Store Chicks at Merchants (Dick Bartlett Park), Rock Cree at Lime Creek Ladies and Beaverdell at Borderline.

He was born in Kelvington, Saskatchewan moving to Grand Forks at the age of 8. He enjoyed most of his adult life in the Boundary area contributing to the community through his ownership and operation of the Grand Forks Sash and Door. He was a gifted musician and played the accordion at many social gatherings. Alex is survived by his wife of 62 years, Marilyn, son Barry (Gladys), daughters Luba (Patrick Hall) and Terry (Wade Nearing) and ﬁve grandchildren. As well, survived by brothers Peter (Mary), Sarge (Fern) and Fred (Joanna). He is predeceased by parents Alex and Annie and brother Walter.

The funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the Baker Family of Grand Forks Funeral Home, gffh@shaw.ca

Betty Marilyn Corson Sept 25, 1930 – April17, 2015

Betty was born in EI Paso, Texas, adopted by affluent family Covey and Stella Baker were her parents reside in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Covey had several drug stores in N.M. He was well educated, with a college degree in Finances and administration in New Mexico. From 1930-1963 she lived in the United States. On November 25, 1948 she married Paul Evans and went on to adopt Jerry, Nancy, John, Janell and Enoch. Betty and Paul’s only biological child is Kendall Evans who resides in Los Angeles. In 1967 Betty was remarried to Allen Corson in Toronto, Ontario, and became mother to his three daughters, Doreen, Carole and Helen. In 1972 they moved to Surrey, B.C. In 1976 Betty and Allen relocated to the Boundary Country: Midway, B.C. briefly, then moved to Grand Forks, B.C. Through the 39 years of life in Grand Forks, she was involved in inter-church prayer groups, Women’s Aglow, bookkeeping, and various Prayer Group ministries. In the community she served in various capacities: Shaw Cable programmer, as regional treasurer in the conservative party, and occasionally brushing shoulders with Prime Minister Harper himself! Her hobbies were sewing, crochet, baking, and sending care boxes filled with cookies. Betty loved to hand candies out at the church to the children. She was a contestant in TV shows and radio shows, and as a result, she won a trip to Madrid, Spain. She won many other interesting prizes from the radio shows. In true sportsmanship, Betty loved to spank Dad in a round of golf at Christina Lake Par 3. Truly she was a matriarch of an era and a pillar of the Church and her family. She has left a rich spiritual heritage to family. Her main passion was to serve the Lord with all her heart, mind, soul and strength, and also to see that many would be saved and know Jesus as she did especially her immediate family. We will see her again if we receive the Gift of Salvation. Funeral Services entrusted to Pastor Everett Baker of Grand Forks Funeral Home, gffh@shaw.ca

Nar-Anon supportive

Courage to Change—a new meeting opens in Grand Forks. The Nar-Anon Family Groups have weekly meetings to help relatives and friends of the addict avoid both rejection and over-protectiveness. Like alcoholism, drug dependence is considered to be a “family disease”, and the family members should be encouraged to attend Nar-anon meetings as soon as a drug problem is suspected. One of the tragic aspects of drug abuse is that the needs of the family are not being met. Nar-anon Family Groups are providing a major source of help to the relatives and friends of addicts. Nar-Anon offers a constructive program whereby its members learn to achieve peace of mind and gain hope for the future. They learn to accept addiction as a disease; to reduce family tension; and to encourage the addict to seek help for his or her own problem. Nar-Anon is entirely self-supporting through voluntary contributions of its members. The identity of individuals and what is said at the meetings is carefully guarded by its members. Do you need Nar-anon? This questionnaire may help you make that decision, so take a few minutes to answer the questions honestly and with an open mind. After all, you are the only one who truly knows how you feel and what you live with on a day-to-day basis. 1. Do you find yourself making excuses, lying, or covering up for someone? 2. Do you have a reason not to trust a person? 3. Is it becoming difficult for you to believe his/her explanations? 4. Do you lie awake worrying about this person? 5.

Community Newspapers Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at the heart of thingsâ&#x201E;˘

It is with a great amount of sadness, we announce the passing of Kaye: wife, mother, grandmother and friend to many, at the young age of 71. Kaye passed very quietly into the presence of her Lord surrounded by her loving family on Monday April 20th, 2015 at 9:40 pm. Kaye is survived by her husband Herb of 48 years, son Russ (Gwen) (Courtney, Chelsea), and daughter Karin (Tony) (Naomi, Corbin and Dorian). Kaye was born on June 17th, 1943 in Vancouver. She graduated from Kits High School, trained at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital, worked there and later worked as an RN at Richmond Hospital. Kaye was a cancer survivor in 2002 but succumbed to a second bout of cancer in 2013. Many thanks to our friends and family as well as the caring staff of palliative care at Richmond Hospital. A celebration of life will be held at Peace Mennonite Church May 9th at 3 pm. 11571 Daniels Road in Richmond. In lieu of flowers, if you wish, please make any donations in Kayeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory to the Pines Bible Camp in Grand Forks, BC. Envelopes provided.

Camp. A great array of salads, cold meat and cheese platters and homemade buns by Donna Ashton and Jane deVries greeted the group, plus delicious desserts. Vicki Krahn and Richard Friesen, Pines staff, helped set up and clean up. Girls were presented with their badges and some groups sang for their moms. Emily Ralston played her violin as well. After dinner the girls went up to their cabins to get into pajamas and then back down to watch videos and enjoy popcorn. On Saturday, they worked on badges which included learning how to make campfires. It was a great overnighter and fine weather added to the enjoyment. Pioneer Clubs resume in fall.

Golfers can save and help lung assoc. SUBMITTED to the Grand Forks Gazette

Flowers are blooming and the weather’s improving—sure signs for golfers to swing into savings with the B.C. Lung Association’s Golf Privilege Club® Membership Book. “Our membership book saves golfers hundreds of dollars for less than the price of one round of golf. It’s also a great way for golfers to pay less and play more while supporting the lung association’s work to improve lung health in British Columbia,” says Michele Caskey, BC Lung Association volunteer director for Grand Forks. For only $35, the membership book entitles golfers to discounts at more than 120 courses across B.C. and Washington State. All proceeds go to B.C. Lung Association’s various programs and services. Save on golf while supporting the one in five British Columbians living with breathing problems. Buy a Golf Privilege Club® Book today! Visit www.golfandsave.ca or call 1-800-665-5864.
