Summer Theatre ticket money stolen

Cash, ticket stubs taken C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Since the 2013 Kimberley Summer Theatre season left the KST Society deeply in debt, the remaining board members (Shirley Rossi, Roxanne Harper and Olive Mufford) have been working tirelessly to make sure everyone is paid. They are almost there, having raised every dime of an almost $40,000 debt through meat pie sales, spaghetti dinners, garage sales and raffles. The latest raffle is for a patio furniture set and barbecue, which is set up at the corner of the Mark Creek Market parking lot on Wallinger. Draw date is July 1, 2015. Ticket sales have been going well but unfortunately, last week someone stole the cash box out of Shirley Rossi’s car, which was parked in the Platzl parking lot. The back window of the vehicle was broken with a two by four. In the cash box was the $150 float plus about $100 in tickets sold that day. What has Rossi worried is that they now have no record of the people who purchased tickets that day. If you purchased a ticket on Wednesday, July 1 or possibly the evening before, Summer Theatre needs your information. The tickets stolen are sequences 0261 - 0280, 0341 - 0360, 0381 - 0400, 0401 - 0420, 0421 - 0440. If you could bring your information to the ticket selling location at the Mark Creek Market parking lot, it would be appreciated. Or you can call Rossi at 250-427-4561.

Evacuation alerts remain in place as crews fight blaze TRE VOR CR AWLEY

The Baynes Lake wildfire has been roughly 25 per cent contained, but there are still evacuation alerts in place for the surrounding area and the Kragmont community. The fire saw minimal growth over Sunday night, but is estimated to be roughly 140 hectares in size. Crews are planning to conduct a burn out, where they will burn towards the active fire to reduce the fuels and create a natural fire break. The burn out will gener-

ate some smoke but it is a normal practice in combatting wildfires. There are 35 firefighters on scene, with six pieces of heavy equipment, two helicopters and air tankers as needed. The fire is burning south of Cutts Road towards the Elk River. In another area of RDEK jurisdiction, a fire north of Spillimacheen has been re-estimated at 54 hectares. There was a flare up overnight on the Harrogate side

of the fire, but crews have been working on machine guard lines and containment. There are 30 firefighters, heavy equipment and aerial support on scene, along with help from the Windermere Fire Department Structural Protection Unit, which protected two homes close to the blaze. One home remains under an evacuation order, while an evacuation alert is in place for the area south of the RDEK Boundary, east of

the Columbia River, south to Westside Road in Spillimacheen. As reported by the RDEK on Sunday, there was also a small fire in the grass and yard clipping pile at the Central Subregion Landfill. Staff, contractors and a Wildfire Service crew actioned it immediately and although it generated a lot of smoke, the fire was isolated to the grass pile, quickly contained and is now out. Staff also came by for mop up and hot spot Crews battling blaze out at Baynes Lake. checks on Monday.

April Wells For the Bulletin

Don’t think it’s too late to start your Kimberley food garden. Can we plant carrots in July in Kimberley? Yes we can! The variety of carrot is important; you will not be able to save these carrots over the winter as they will be small, but that’s the best kind for eating. Go for the seed that matures in 60 days; they’ll be ready mid to late September. My friend says in the hot weather try Nantes carrots – short stubby ones that mature quickly. Carrots will withstand a few degrees of frost. I have had carrots live through the winter to set seed the next year (though they were partly bug-ridden and sporting many fine hairs, but still edible). Other seeds to plant this month are beets (5565 days to maturity), broccoli (60-80 days), endive (60-90 days), kale (55-80 days), kohlrabi (60-70 days), lettuce (5580 days), radish (20-50 days), shallots (60-75 days), spinach (40-65 days), summer squash (50-60 days), and turnips (45-60 days). All of these tolerate cool soil (1025’C). In fact spinach, radish, lettuce and onion need cool soil (10’-17’C)

April Wells so plant on a cooler day. Look for the seeds with the shortest maturity date. Start these seeds in a space where they will not overheat or dry out. When the plants are small, set them in an area where they receive a few hours of early sun each day. Because of our hot summers, choose a spot that provides afternoon shade. Today is June 30th and I have lovely leaf lettuce in small pots on the back deck in these conditions, whereas my lettuce in full sun have gone to seed. Then in late Au-

gust/September when temperatures are not so high, plant out in your garden or move to your shady spot.

HOW’S YOUR FOOD FOOTPRINT?

You may think that growing a few vegetables isn’t going to help with our climate change future, but consider these facts. The average distance that imported grapes travel is 10,108 km (Chile); greenhouse gas emissions for every kg. of grapes purchased is 1,434 grams (almost 3 lb.) of particulate. I don’t want to be responsible

two grape vines to produce. One is a concord type (small, dark blue, flavorful) and the other is an unknown cutting grown from a Kimberley vine. Imported apples travel an average of 2,038 km. and growing/buying local saves 295 grams of particulate greenhouse gas emissions. By my calculations, 113 grams equals ¼ lb. so that’s over 1/2 lb. of stuff I am putting into the atmosphere when I buy 1 kg. of New Zealand apples. Buying locally grown food or growing your own saves a lot of diesel fuel as well. You help with climate change and air pollution AND strengthen Kimberley’s economy simultaneously.

Be prepared in case of evacuation orders Emergency Info BC offers tips on grab and go bags and other ways you can prepare for an emergency situation C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

As British Columbia deals with an increasingly active fire season, it’s a good time to make sure you are prepared for an evacuation order, rather than scrambling at the last minute. This past weekend saw evacuation alerts and orders at three different locations in the Kootenays — East of

Have an emergency grab and go bag ready.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Notice is hereby given that the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of Cranbrook proposes to adopt “City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3824, 2015”. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Bylaw will add a new regulation to Section 7.14.6(b) in the C-1, Community Commercial Zone that will permit up to a maximum of two dwelling units to be located below the first storey in a building located at 1213 Baker Lane. The amendment will be specific to the subject properties noted below only. The subject properties are legally described as Lots 29 & 30, Block 86, District Lot 5, Kootenay District Plan 669 and Parcel A (See144367I) of Lot 31, Block 86, District Lot 5, Kootenay District Plan 669 (civic address: 1213 Baker Lane) only, as shown on the map below.

Lake Koocanusa, Harrogate, north of Radium and Sitkum Creek near Nelson. There are stages of evacuations: Evacuation Order: You are at risk. Leave the area immediately. Local police or RCMP enforce evacuation orders. You are encouraged to register all family members at the reception centre so, emergency responders know that you are safe Evacuation Alert: Be ready to leave on short notice. If you leave before or during this alert, it’s called a voluntary evacuation Evacuation Rescinded: All is currently safe and you can return home. Stay tuned for other possible evacuation alerts or orders Having special medications, important documents, pet food, basic toiletries and clean clothes already packed in an emergency kit can make a very stressful situation much less difficult. Emergency Info BC offers these suggestions for a family grab bag.

Grab-and-go Don’t count on being home when there’s an emergency. Create grab-and-go bags for your work and vehicles that contain:

Food (ready to eat) and water Flashlight and batteries AM/FM radio Medications Seasonal clothing Blanket Cell phone charger Pen and notepad Personal toiletries Small First-Aid kit Extra pair of glasses or contacts Cash in small bills Local map with your family meeting place identified Whistle

Eleven Steps to Developing a Household Preparedness Plan

Identify the risks for your region Make an emergency phone list with at least two out-of-area contacts Pick a meeting spot in case you’re separated from family members Assign someone to collect your children from school or daycare if you can’t Identify what official sources you’ll get information from Learn how to turn off utilities Store enough emergency water for your family for a minimum of three days Store enough emergency food to support

your family for a minimum of three days Identify any special needs, such as medications, baby formula or pet food, and make sure a proper supply is on hand Create grab-and-go bags for every member of your household

Don’t forget the pets

The BCSPCA is also asking people to have an emergency bag prepared for pets. “When you’re ordered to evacuate, you need to do it as soon as possible, and people don’t necessarily think about their pet in an emergency situation until it’s too late,” says BC SPCA general manager of community relations Lorie Chortyk. “You don’t have time to gather up everything you need if you have to get out of your home right away.” Evacuations are usually a busy time for staff and volunteers at the province’s BC SPCA branches, as they provide extra shelter, pet food and pet-related equipment such as crates and leashes for pet guardians and animals. “When you’re in a hurry, it can be easy to forgot feeding bowls, food, leashes, everything,” Chortyk says. “That’s why it’s import-

ant to plan ahead and be prepared for any emergency. People love their pets but it often doesn’t sink in that an emergency can happen at any time.” Having an emergency pet kit handy is key, as well as ensuring your pet is already wearing a collar with up-to-date contact information, Chortyk notes. Keeping your pets inside the house so you don’t need to search for them is also a good idea, as is having emergency pet boarding plans in place. Items to include in an emergency kit for your pet(s) include: · A seven-day supply of food and water · Identification tag and collar · Sturdy crate and/ or carrier · Pet first aid kit · Blanket/plastic bags · Leash, harness · Food and water bowls (collapsible are great) · Litter box and litter for cats · Manual can opener · Copy of your pet’s current vaccination history · Any special medications and instructions Much more information is available online at http://www. emergencyinfobc.gov. bc.ca/

Debates

Opinion/Events

What’s Up?

Letters to the Editor

Recently, the Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce announced that it is already organizing an all candidate’s event for the upcoming federal election. Wonderful! The looming question is: “Will MP David Wilks show up for all the debates?” In 2011 Mr. Wilks attendance was 43%. He failed to attend debates in Revelstoke, Invermere, Kimberley and Cranbrook. If someone wants to be elected to act and speak on our behalf, it’s like a job interview - best to show up. No excuses. Debates are where many people can learn what each candidate stands for and whether or not they will reflect our values in government. It will be good to see all the candidates at all the debates, especially in the communities

new to the riding, like Nelson. Yours for democracy, Patrick Bondy

Jumbo Where is the feedback from Jumbo proponents? With the substantial start determination going against further development of this highly controversial project, opponents feel like we’ve won a huge battle in the war against Jumbo. But, hang on. It seems to me that the proponent is quite happy to roll over silently and take it. What follows is purely speculation but the more I think this over, the expiry of the EA certificate could be the best thing to happen to the resort. When the BC Government created the municipality of Jumbo, (in spite of the fact is

has zero citizens, zero infrastructure and zero tax base to support itself and completely sidestepped democratic process with the appointment of a so-called mayor all the while funding it with taxpayer dollars) they also introduced legislation that proposed Ski Hills and LNG facilities would not be required to go through the arduous Environmental Assessment process. Fast forward to late June, 2015. The proponent has their EA certificate expire, they go back to square one, reapply to construct the resort with the added bonus of not having to endure another rigorous EA application. I believe what we are seeing is more smoke and mirrors between the proponent and the government. How sweet it must be for JGR to reapply to construct this resort, with no due process to follow and a gift

wrapped municipality complete with tax payer funded subsidies already in place. This is Liberal politicking at its finest. Buckle up Jumbo opponents... we’re just getting started. Steve Tersmette

Symphony Stupendous is the only word to describe Saturday night’s Symphony of the Kootenays concert on top of North Star Mountain. An audacious undertaking by a tiny group of big thinkers, Symphony on the Mountain showed what imagination, good planning, hard work and community support can bring off. Many congratulations to everyone involved. Susan Bond

Outlook cloudy for climate policies

L

iberal Leader Justin Trudeau came to Vancouver last week to unveil his environmental platform for the Oct. 19 federal election. Trudeau promised an overhaul of the National Energy Board and an vaguely defined intention to work with provinces to impose a “price” on carbon dioxide emissions across the country. Trudeau’s media tour took him to the Burnaby facilities of General Fusion, where, like Premier Christy Clark a few weeks before, he stood at his podium before a prototype fusion reactor. This massive octopus of pistons and wires is an attempt to capture the nuclear reaction that powers the Sun and other stars, containing its fury within steel walls and magnetic fields. The old joke about controlled fusion is that every 20 years, scientists tell us it’s just 20 years away. If it ever is developed, such a process could quickly put an end to our hand-wringing about fossil fuels, largely replacing them with endless, emission-free energy. This is the type of technological revolution that Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s officials indicated would be needed, after Canada announced a pledge with other G7 leaders to make their economies car-

bon-free by 2100. That’s right, some time within the next 85 years. Clark visited General Fusion in May to announce her new climate action advisory panel, which has to give her a plan to take to Paris next December. That’s the next big United Nations climate summit, where Trudeau hopes to lead a delegation of premiers to stop the flow of “fossil awards” given to Canada by people in polar bear suits. Asked about the fusion reactor she had just toured, Clark laughed off the question, comparing it to the “flux capacitor” used for time travel in the Michael BC VIEWS J. Fox movie Back to the Future Tom Trudeau recently told Fletcher university students that we need to change our concepts of time and space, and he didn’t seem to be kidding. The point here for voters is that all these leaders, Harper, Trudeau, Clark and many others, are talking down to you. You aren’t sophisticated enough to understand this climate business. The Pope has weighed in, assuring us that carbon trading systems are not going to cut it. This is a rebuke to California, Quebec and the European Union, where effective carbon trading is, like controlled fu-

sion, just around the corner. Pope Francis warned that our “throwaway culture” views nature “solely as a source of profit and gain” and so people won’t voluntarily do the right thing. (The results of the Metro Vancouver transit plebiscite could be interpreted this way, if you ignore the bumbling, waste and political posturing that really did it in.) The Pope concludes that there is “an urgent need” for a “true world political authority” to impose order on the greedy capitalist humans that infest our beautiful planet. Presumably this would be the run by the UN, so my advice is to start hoarding candles and cat food now. B.C.’s frozen carbon tax has ceased to have much effect, with gasoline consumption back up over 2008 levels amid the usual volatility of prices. Gasoline is going for around $1.30 a litre, despite the prolonged slump in crude oil prices, and people have basically forgotten about this tax on top of all the other gas taxes. Perhaps B.C. can brag in Paris about the Pacific Carbon Trust, which limps along after its near-death experience in 2013. The trust continues to divert tax dollars from B.C. government operations to purported carbon-saving activities, including paying coastal First Nations not to log the portions of forests that they demanded be preserved.

Bandits battered in Polson

Cranbrook Bandits drop four of five games in American Legion Baseball play in Polson Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

The Cranbrook Bandits continued their American Legion Baseball campaign south of the border at the Firecracker Tournament in Polson, Mont., this past weekend. Though the American hosts celebrated Independence Day, there was little for Canada’s lone representatives to cheer about, as the Bandits lost four of five outings. The Bandits lone win of the weekend came July 4, as they worked past the Mission Valley ‘B’ Mariners. Rookie right-hander Shayne Walker (6-3) tossed 5.2 innings while only surrendering one earned run, leading the Bandits to a 6-2 triumph. The weekend affairs dropped the Bandits to 14-18-1 through 33 games in their American Legion Baseball season. The Bandits opened the tournament on July 2, falling to the Libby Loggers by a final margin of 8-4. Starting pitcher Devon Marra (3-3) lasted one inning as he allowed four earned runs on four hits and one walk. The four-run first in-

ning put the Loggers out front for good and they added four more runs in the fifth and sixth innings to pad the advantage. A two-run effort in the bottom of the seventh by the Bandits made the affair a bit closer, but it wasn’t enough to change the outcome.

Tyler Thorn went 2-for-2 at the plate and drew two walks against the Loggers, while driving home two runs. Luke Haggerty went the distance on the mound for Libby, striking out two batters en route to the win. In the second day of tournament play, the Bandits were doubled up 6-3 by the Missoula Pioneers. Once again, the Bandits fell behind early as the Pioneers scored three runs in the first inning to take a lead they refused to relinquish. Earning the start on the bump, Thorn (2-3) threw five innings and struck out nine. Despite only giving up four hits,

the veteran was saddle with the complete-game loss. For the Pioneers, Hunter Jiminez went six innings deep, earning the complete-game victory while striking out five batters. With two games scheduled for Independence Day, the Bandits were knocked around by the Mission Valley ‘A’ Mariners in the morning, falling 16-2. The game remained close as the Bandits trailed 3-2 through two innings before the Mariners blew things open with a nine-run effort in the bottom of the third inning. Starting pitcher Brendan Bird (0-3) lasted two innings, only giving up two hits and surrendering three earned runs. From there, the Bandits rolled through a relief crew of four, as each of Noah Rennette, Rylan D’Etcheverry, Thorn and Daniel Mercandelli worked in an effort to slow the onslaught. Marra and Jake Bromley each knocked home one run, accounting for all of the Bandits offense. Jacob Harrod tossed a complete game to claim the win for the ‘A’

The final game of the weekend was a close one, as the Dillon Cubs eked out a 5-4 victory over the Bandits July 5. Marra returned to the mound, going three innings this time around, striking out four batters while only allowing two hits and one earned run.

From there, Connor Armstrong (2-2) came on in relief, firing 3.1 innings. The two teams exchange blows, remaining tied 2-2 through five innings before the Cubs grabbed a 4-2 advantage in the top of the sixth. Despite a one-run response from the Bandits in the bottom of the in-

Reinhart and Faith head to NHL development camps Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Another pair of NHL draftees from the Kootenay Ice are off to their respective development camps this week. Captain Sam Reinhart, a 2014 second-overall selection of the Buffalo Sabres, joined his NHL squad on Monday as it opened development camp at the First Niagara Centre. Defenceman Tanner Faith, a 2014 fifth-round selection of the Minnesota Wild, was named to the team’s roster for its development camp, which begins July 9 at the Xcel Energy Centre. Reinhart, a 19-yearold native of North Vancouver, skated in nine games with the Sabres at the start of the 201415 season before being

returned to the Ice. After suiting up for 47 games with the the Ice, tallying 19 goals and 65 points, the 6-foot-1 pivot was re-assigned to the American League’s Rochester Americans, where he saw three games of action and registered three assists. “I was excited for that opportunity [to play in Rochester],” Reinhart said at a Sabres press conference on Monday. “It allowed me to go into the off-season knowing what the pro game was like. Obviously a little different at the NHL level, but with that being said, a lot different than the junior level as well. It was a step up. “I had taken some away from my game onice through the year [in major junior] but I was preparing for another

chance professionally. It was motivating to get that opportunity. It made me confident going into the off-season as well.”

Reinhart remains eligible to return to major junior for the 2015-16 season, but he is expected to turn pro, whether that be as a full-time member of the Sabres or on the farm with the Americans. Sabres development camp runs July 6 to 12. As for Faith, the 19-year-old native of

Terrace suffered through a second consecutive injury-plagued campaign with the Ice. A shoulder injury shorted the defenceman’s 2013-14 WHL season to only 10 games. In 2014-15, a different shoulder injury cut his season to 19 games. The 6-foot-3, 216pound blue-liner remains eligible to return to major junior, but should he sign a professional contract with the Wild, he is eligible to play professionally, whether that be at the NHL, AHL or ECHL level. Wild development camps from July 9 to 14. Reinhart and Faith are the fifth and sixth Ice players to venture off to NHL development camps this week. Tim Bozon (Montreal Canadiens), Jaedon Desche-

neau (St. Louis Blues), Luke Philp (Philadelphia Flyers) and Rinat Valiev (Toronto Maple Leafs) were named to development camp rosters last week. Notes: Former Kootenay Ice defenceman Landon Cross has committed to the University of Regina. The 21-yearold rearguard left the Ice prior to the 2014-15 season, joining the Steinbach Pistons of the Manitoba Junior ‘A’ Hockey League. He suited up in 54 games (1G, 9A, 10pts) with the Ice during the 2013-14 season after being acquired from the Kamloops Blazers as a part of the deal that brought Tim Bozon to Cranbrook. In 188 career WHL games with the Blazers and Ice, Cross tallied four goals and 33 points.

ning, the Cubs tacked up one more in the top of the seventh. The tworun edge would be enough for a Cubs victory as the Bandits were only able to muster one last run in the bottom of the seventh. The Bandits return to action once again this weekend, heading south to Kalispell for four

games. A doubleheader on Friday, July 10, sees the Bandits take on the Okotoks Dawgs at 12 p.m. before facing Priest River at 5 p.m. July 11 pits the Bandits against the Kalispell Lakers before wrapping up the weekend July 12 with an early outing versus Medicine Hat.

Kelowna Rockets lose coach Dan Lambert to NHL’s Sabres Taylor Rocc a

The Western Hockey League champions are in search of a new head coach for the second consecutive off-season. On Monday afternoon, Dan Lambert resigned from his post as head coach of the Kelowna Rockets to take up a role as assistant coach with the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres. “This was a decision that was very difficult to make,” Lambert said in a team release. “I’d like to thank Bruce Hamilton and the Hamilton family and Lorne Frey for giving me an opportunity six years ago to become part of the Rocket family.” Lambert lasted one year as head coach of the Rockets, guiding the team to a record of 5913-5-1 en route to claim-

ing the Ed Chynoweth Cup as WHL champions. “We wish Dan well in the future,” said Bruce Hamilton, president and general manager of the Rockets, in a team release. “This is two years in a row we have lost our head coach, so it’s tough. But we are about developing our people and we are happy to see Dan move on to the next level.” The 45-year-old native of Saint Boniface, Man., had been with the Rockets since the 200910 season, previously serving as an assistant coach under former head coach Ryan Huska. During last off-season, Lambert took over from Huska, who was hired as head coach of the AHL’s Adirondack Flames.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: How do I tell my neighbors that it’s annoying and frustrating to listen to their teenaged daughters shrieking and screaming as they’re having fun outside? Often, I want to go out and play with my dog, but I can’t because these girls are behaving like 5-year-olds, screaming their heads off. There are things I need to do outside, but the noise makes it impossible. And it’s horrible to have to listen to it inside as well. The mother says she doesn’t like to interfere with the girls when they’re having a good time. Well, they may be enjoying themselves, but the rest of the neighborhood is not. People are just too polite to say anything. I don’t want to be offensive, rude or hurt my neighbors’ feelings. These parents and their girls are sweet, good-hearted people, but it seems that the discipline and consideration for others is simply not there. I don’t want the girls to stop having fun. I’d just like them to keep other people in mind, too. But trying to tell someone else how to discipline their kids is a very delicate subject. This has been going on since the weather has warmed up. I can’t even entertain outside because of the shrieking. Please help, Annie. -- A Frustrated Neighbor Dear Frustrated: You say your neighbors are sweet and good-hearted. Surely they would not want people to think their children are so annoying and disruptive. There is nothing rude or hurtful about saying to your neighbors, “We’re happy the girls are having such a great time outside, but we would deeply appreciate it if they could tone it down a bit. I’m sure they don’t realize how loud they are.” Unless they are breaking some local noise ordinances, there isn’t much more you can do. But you can repeat to yourself that “this, too, shall pass.” Soon enough, those shrieking teenagers will be off to college (or adulthood) and this will no longer be a problem. Until then, you might want to invest in some noise-blocking headphones and a fan. Dear Annie: Two of us work with a woman in our office who sleeps propped up at her desk. She snores lightly and wakes herself up numerous times. We have spoken to her about this, to no avail. We don’t want to tell the boss and get her into trouble. But as you can imagine, it is both irritating and distracting. How should we handle it? -- Very Frustrated Dear Frustrated: Your co-worker is not getting enough restful sleep at night. She may be burning the candle at both ends, or she may have a sleep disorder. Suggest to her that she see a doctor immediately because you are worried about her. And please don’t feel guilty about reporting her to the boss. She is sleeping on the job, which affects your ability to work and your boss’ bottom line. But more importantly, she may have a serious health issue that should be addressed, and that is how you should approach it -- with genuine concern.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers. Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting. You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

To advertise using our “SERVICES GUIDE� in the Cranbrook Daily Townsman, Kimberley Daily Bulletin and The Valley, call us at 250-426-5201, ext. 202.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back. A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image. When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient. Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic. Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales. Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate. Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image. In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale. When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Call today and start advertising.

A magical Symphony on the Mountain C AROLYN GR ANT

It was an enterprise fraught with difficult logistics, yet if all went well, it could deliver magic. And it did. The logistics included moving an entire orchestra and all their instruments, music stands and more to the top of Northstar Mountain in Kimberley. Move 500 people up and off the mountain in the same evening. And hope that the weather cooperates. A backup plan had the concert and gala moving to the Kimberley Conference Centre, but all agreed the best case scenario was a performance on the mountain top. Everything came together just how it was planned and the Symphony of the Kootenays performed on a beautiful evening with a spectacular view of the valley below for the audience. Congratulations to the Symphony for a great performance and all the many volunteers who made this unique event happen.

A view from inside the stage tent, looking out at the audience.
