Smoke from B.C. wildfires nearly obscures the setting sun over Chilliwack this week as air quality advisories continue. GREG KNILL/ PROGRESS
Poor air quality requires more mindfulness Jennifer Feinberg The Progress You can hardly make out the mountains these days in Chilliwack through the smoky haze. But it’s not just the disturbing visible impacts when there is a sustained air quality advisory in effect, like the one in B.C. now from wildfire smoke. It also means that at-risk individuals need to take certain precautions, said Lisa Mu, medical health officer with Fraser Health. An air quality advisory issued for Metro Vancouver was extended to the Fraser Valley this week due to high concen-
trations of fine particulate matter, after wildfire smoke started wafting into local airsheds. “As air quality levels have been quite variable across the region, we want citizens to be mindful and alert to symptoms, and to take precautions to protect themselves,” said Dr. Mu. There are higher than normal concentrations of fine particulates, known as PM2.5, than they would expect, and the heat is compounding the situation. “Individuals with chronic lung and heart conditions, as well as the elderly and young children, are at increased risk of health effects from particulate matter,” she said. More PM2.5s in the air could
lead to an exacerbation of those existing medical conditions, and people who are otherwise healthy could see irritation of the eyes, the throat, as well as coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath. “It is definitely an irritant,” Dr. Mu said. Fine particulate matter means that the size of the tiny irritating particles are less than 2.5 microns in diameter. “The smaller particulates are of greater concern because they move more deeply into the lungs,” the health officer said. Air quality advisories for most of the B.C. South Coast will continue because of high concentrations of fine particulate matter

due to wildfire smoke. Smoky sky advisories were also issued for most of the Southern Interior because of forest fire smoke affecting the area. Dr. Mu did not have any hard numbers or statistics handy on hospital emergency visits since the bad air moved in locally. “But I would say anecdotally we have seen more cases of respiratory complaints than usual,” she said. That statement was borne out on social media when readers were asked about impacts of bad AQ by The Progress.

Dangerously hot water temperatures in the Fraser River, combined with low river flows and unusually warm ocean conditions are conspiring to create a dire outlook for returning sockeye salmon. And that could mean no fishing at all for the roughly 6.8 million sockeye projected to be on their way back to the Fraser to spawn – easily enough for what should have been a decent season. “What’s going on now is not good and I don’t anticipate it being good in August,” said Mike Lapointe, chief biologist for the Pacific Salmon Commission. “But it’s just a matter of waiting to see where the indicators are at that time and making the decisions based on the evidence we have. I think the observed data is going to be pretty extreme.” He said it’s “certainly possible” that sockeye fisheries will be severely curtailed or even cancelled altogether because a large proportion of the run may not survive to reach the spawning grounds. A record low snowpack in the mountains this year has meant what little snow was in the alpine has melted off sooner than usual, leaving less to keep stream and river levels up and their temperatures down later in the summer. Fraser River temperatures at Hope have already gone over 19 degrees in recent days, Lapointe said, when the norm at this time of year is less than 15 degrees. “It’s extremely warm,” he said, adding the lower water flows compound the problem. “It’s like a bathtub. If you don’t have a lot of water in it, it’s really sensitive to the temperatures around.” High temperatures of 19 or 20 and higher can be deadly for salmon, which

Code raises expectations around cattle health and welfare Jennifer Feinberg The Progress The National Dairy Code of Practice announced this week will formalize ways of improving the health and welfare of dairy cows. The new Dairy Code focuses on animal handling, feeding, housing, and husbandry practices. “A lot of the health and welfare, and cattle handling is new,” said Devan Toop, a Chilliwack dairy farmer. “Before they were more common knowledge among farm-
ers and veterinarians, but now they are on paper and enforceable.” Toop is the herd manager and HR manager on the family dairy farm. “I aim to create an environment where everyone enjoys being here — especially the cows,” he said. His grandfather works with the young stock, while his dad takes care of the feeding and milking as well as field work. The new dair y code was announced jointly by BC SPCA and B.C. government officials this
week in the wake of dairy cow abuse evidence that surfaced last summer with a Mercy for Animals video shot at Chilliwack Cattle Sales operation, Canada’s largest dairy farm on Prairie Central Road. The video footage showed cows being kicked, punched and struck with a cane. The B.C. government, B.C. SPCA, B.C. Dairy Association, B.C. Milk Marketing Board and the dairy industry have been working to further strengthen measures to protect the welfare
of dairy cattle at B.C.’s 500 dairy operations, most of which are in the Fraser Valley. “The Canadian dairy industry is going a step further with this proactive program. It is currently being implemented and failure to follow guidelines can result in farmers not getting their milk approved for pickup,” said Toop. Those highly publicized examples of animal abuse last June were definitely not the industry norm, he emphasized. “The overwhelming majority of
dairy farmers treat their animals with great care, because the success of a dairy farm depends on how well their cows are treated,” Toop said. “I hope the code will give a fresh perspective on management to those farms that need to improve.” It makes a big difference. “A healthy cow is happy cow,” Toop said in an interview last year. “The better the shape they’re in, the better it is. It sounds simple but it is a lot of work.” jfeinberg@theprogress.com
Truck parkades could go on farmland

Seven-year-old twins, Brooke and Taylor Wigham-Klassen of Chilliwack, were the first to test out the new public piano downtown on Friday afternoon. The family has deep historic roots in the community, and relatives of the twins were thrilled to help kick off the Hands On The Piano project, outside the Royal Hotel on Wellington Avenue.

New truck parking lots being opened by the province could in some cases be located on agricultural land, Transportation Minister Todd Stone said after unveiling the first site in North Delta. The first overnight parking area for 40 trucks at Highway 91 and Nordel Way will be open by late 2016 and other potential sites are being identified from Surrey to Abbotsford. They’re supposed to reduce the problem of big rigs congesting residential streets or being parked illegally on farmland. But Stone did not rule out using agricultural land for some of the sites. “It could potentially,” he told Black Press, adding that would require approval of the Agricultural Land Commission. “There will be no short circuiting of the ALC process whatsoever for any of the potential sites that we’re looking at.” Stone said six or seven potential sites are under consideration in Surrey, at least one is expected in Abbotsford to serve long-haul truckers using Highway 1, and another would be placed near Deltaport for container truckers. Sites can’t be right next to residential neighbourhoods, he noted. “This is going to reduce congestion and benefit communities and the related lands,” Stone said. B.C. Trucking Association president and CEO Louise Yako welcomed the initiative, saying parking trucks is a major challenge in urban areas.
Walking the talk for ovarian cancer research Jessica Peters The Progress Diane Johansen was in the best shape of her life when she found out she had ovarian cancer. That was in 2011. She had retired, had two successful knee replacements, was hitting the gym regularly and had lost 50 pounds over two years. She was planning her new future, and having already lost her husband to leukemia had decided to embrace life and “never say no” to an adventure. But she wasn’t listening very carefully when her body said ‘no.’ At least, she didn’t at first. “I wasn’t feeling well all the time,” Johansen says, and despite losing weight, her middle remained

quite large. But she journeyed on, took Gravol while out on holidays, so she could get through dinners with friends. Back at the gym, she was asked to help demonstrate an exercise to visiting physicians. She laid on her stomach for a stretching demonstration. “I remember thinking ‘I feel like I’m lying on a ball’,” she says. The next time she did that same stretch, she said it felt “squishy.” When Johansen went to her doctor, she eventually learned she had developed a 16.5 cm tumour on her ovary. And, that tumour had leaked into her abdomen. “How did I not know?” she asks. “The tumour was so large I had burst it in the gym that day.”
She beat the often devastating odds of ovarian cancer, and is now a speaker for Ovarian Cancer Canada. She recently traveled to Chilliwack to speak about ovarian cancer with the Fraser Rotary Club. Ovarian cancer is something we all have to be aware of, because of its quiet, insidious nature. “I thought I was as healthy as I could be, but I was never sicker,” she says. Women often brush off the symptoms that are consistent with ovarian cancer, but she says, everyone has to be their own health advocates. “We all have to be aware of ovarian cancer,” she says. “It affects everybody. And I can’t stress enough for people to reach out for support.”

Joining Johansen in Chilliwack was Tracy Kolwich, director of the Western Region for Ovarian Cancer Canada. She underlined the importance of knowing the symptoms, and highlighted some of the advances being made in ovarian cancer research. Ovarian cancer is difficult to detect, and Kolwich noted that many doctors will never have a diagnosed patient in their entire careers. Common symptoms are bloating, difficulty eating, abdominal discomfort and a change in urinary habits. Women experiencing new symptoms that persist for three or more weeks should visit their doctor.

News Poor AQ sparks breathing complaints throats, burning eyes, coughing, wheezing sinuses problems and stuffed up noses. A few asthmatics said they were using their inhalers more, and that voices were becoming hoarse. “Used an inhaler for the first time in five years this week — it’s BAD out there,” wrote Melissa Farms. Another had a similar comment. “I have not had an asthma attack in almost five years and have had a heavy chest and a hard to breathe the past few days, even needed to use my inhaler,” commented Candace Ferguson. On Wednesday the air quality health index (AQHI) was at level 4 for Chilliwack and the eastern Fraser Valley, which is a moderate risk rating out of 10, while it went down to 3 on Thursday morning. Roxanne Shadman posted she had a “wicked headache that won’t
go away,” and was finding it hard to breathe, “although the cooler temperature is helping a bit.” The forecast for the AQ to rise to 6 by the end of Thursday, and 4 for Friday. If any symptoms are noted, affected individuals should take steps to reduce their exposure to the smoky air and if necessary seek medical attention at their doctor’s office, walk-in clinic or emergency department depending on the severity of symptoms. Or they could call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1. Anyone experiencing the following symptoms should contact their health care provider: difficulty in breathing, chest pain or discomfort, and sudden onset of cough or irritation of airways. If you are experiencing symptoms, avoid strenuous outdoor activities, especially along busy traffic corridors. Here are some tips: • Use common sense about outdoor exer-
cise: if your breathing becomes difficult or uncomfortable, stop or reduce activity. • Pay attention to local air quality reports at Environment Canada’s website. • Stay cool and drink plenty of fluids. • Be aware of symptoms even indoors. Smoke levels may be lower, however levels of particulates will be increased. • Visit a location like a shopping mall or library with cooler filtered air. Keep in mind that many air condition-
ing systems do not filter the air or improve indoor air quality. • Use high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters which can improve indoor air quality near the device. • Activate an asthma or personal care plan if you have asthma or other chronic illnesses, like COPD.

Research, education make gains in ovarian cancer There are factors that increase or reduce the risk of ovarian cancers, but new research is finding that ovarian cancer is not as clear cut as it once seemed. Instead, researchers are learning that it is a spectrum of cancers. The newest research suggests that ovarian cancer, or at least some cancers, actually begin in the fallopian tubes. That research is happening right in B.C., and has led this province’s gynecological oncologists to begin removing fallopian tubes instead of the more common tubal ligation procedures. While tubal ligation is a way to decrease your risk of ovarian cancer, the medical community now hopes the removal surgery will provide an even greater reduction — possibly by In Canada today, about 17,000 women are living with ovarian cancer, with 2,600 new diagnoses each year. It is the most fatal women’s cancer in Canada, claiming 1,740 lives each year. Seventy per cent of women diagnosed die within five years. Johansen said her experience with cancer has led to her want to share her knowledge and story with everyone, to help reduce those numbers and increase chances of survival in the future. She laughs, and adds, she doesn’t know how to die. “I’ve gone through the process and I’m a winner,” she said.

Sunday’s earthquake was a gentle reminder of the geologic forces at work beneath the ground in the eastern Fraser Valley. Although the 3.3 quake was missed by many, those who did feel it, noticed it. The quake struck at 12:45 Sunday morning. It was centred on the U.S. side of the border, near what is called the Vedder Mountain Fault, southwest of Lindell Beach. It was a sharp, short jolt. Many said it felt as if something heavy had struck their house. The Vedder Mountain Fault is one of three faults known to exist in the region. The other is the Sumas Fault and the more recently discovered Boulder Creek Fault on the U.S. side of the border. Mild earthquakes are not unusual in this area. In fact, Natural Resource Canada has a seismogram stationed on Vedder Mountain that monitors seismic activity. However, the rumbling is rarely felt. Sunday’s quake was an exception. It rattled residents as far away as Langley. And while some people living nearer to the epicentre said they felt nothing, that disparity is not uncommon; shock waves emanating from an earthquake are affected by the ground they travel through. Whether you felt the earthquake or not, Sunday’s event should carry a message. This first is preparation. Although Chilliwack is not typically identified as a high-risk area for earthquakes, we are in geologically active area. A few precautions (like and 72-hour emergency kit) wouldn’t hurt. The second is planning. As projects like the Kinder Morgan TransMountain pipeline argue for approval, we need to understand the geography of our region and assess the risk accordingly. The gap between major earthquakes may be large, but the significance of their impact cannot be overlooked. ~ Greg Knill, Chilliwack Progress

Assessing the health costs of global climate change The threat to human health from climate change is so great that it could undermine the last 50 years of gains in development and global health. This statement headlines a landmark report by a new Commission at the University College London Institute for Global Health. The report was published last month in the prestigious journal The Lancet. “Climate change has the potential to reverse the health gains from economic development that have been made in recent decades, not just through the direct effects on health from a changing and more unstable climate but through indirect means such as increased migration and reduced social stability,” said Commission co-Chair Professor Anthony Costello. “However, our analysis clearly shows that by tackling climate change we can also benefit health, and tackling climate change in fact represents one of the greatest opportunities to benefit human
health for generations to come.” The report outlined the direct health impacts of climate change which come from the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, especially heat waves, floods, droughts and storms. Indirect impacts come from changes in infectious disease patterns, air pollution, food insecurity and Margaret malnutrition, involEVANS untary migration, displacement and conflicts. According to the World Health Organization, the health effects of climate change will be felt in air quality, sufficient availability of safe drinking water, enough food, and secure shelter. WHO estimates that between 2030 and 2050, climate change could cause approximately 250,000 additional
deaths per year from malnutrition, malaria, diarrhea, and heat stress. A dollar figure on health costs is around $2 billion to $4 billion a year by 2030 and those with the least ability to cope (largely in developing countries) will need the greatest help to respond to their health challenges. Extreme high temperatures contribute directly to deaths from cardiovascular and respiratory disease, particularly among elderly people. High temperatures like those seen recently also raise the levels of ozone and other air pollutants especially from wildfires that exacerbate cardiovascular and respiratory disease. Pollen and other allergen levels are also higher in extreme heat and can trigger asthma which affects some 300 million people a year. The report’s authors and WHO independently agree that reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through lowering pollution and choosing sustainable energy give

us at least a shot at protecting health and maintaining the status quo. “Climate Change is a medical emergency,” said co-Chair Professor Hugh Montgomery at the UCL Institute for Human Health and Performance. “It thus demands an emergency response, using the technologies available right now. Under such circumstances, no doctor would consider a series of annual case discussions and aspirations adequate, yet this is exactly how the global response to climate change is proceeding.” The authors said that ways to generate health gains include burning fewer fossil fuels to reduce respiratory diseases, encouraging activities like walking and cycling, and reducing pollution. There may be health benefits from dietary changes as a result of a concerted effort to tackle climate change through less livestock production therefore less red meat consumption and development of
a wider variety of drought and pest resistant crops. The Commission also predicted that a strong international consensus will be essential to move the world to a low-carbon global economy and harness an opportunity to protect human health. The Commission represents a collaboration between European and Chinese climate scientists and geographers, social and environmental scientists, biodiversity experts, engineers and energy policy experts, economists, political scientists, public policy experts, and health professionals. “The health community has responded to many grave threats in the past,” said Commission co-Chair Professor Peng Gong, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. “It took on entrenched interests such as the tobacco industry, and led the fight against HIV/AIDS.”

Progress property. I closed the call with her telling me to have a good day and went to the house and knocked. I obviously had woken up the 12 year old daughter and told her I had called the SPCA and that she had to get the dogs inside, out of the heat, and give them food and water. Within an hour or so, the father (whom I had, up to that time, never seen) knocked on my door with his arm around his sobbing daughter. When I opened the door he was very upset and berated me as heartless for making his 12 year old cry. He was ranting and would not let me talk as he appeared unable to listen. After walking away swearing at me he turned back and apologized for his language. It was at that time he shouted that his 16 year old pug had died and walked away. I can only surmise that his daughter had gone out to retrieve the dogs after I had talked with her at her door and found Mr. Pug unresponsive. I am sick at heart.

Still waiting for evidence of climate change As per Ian Manura, climate change is fact as 97% of scientists say so (Ample evidence of climate change, Progress, July 3). Sounds like the same scientists that in the 1960s gave “doomsday” warnings of the coming ICE AGE?(which we are still waiting for). He states the “climate change deniers” come up with no evidence. Here is what other world class climate scientists are telling us. He quotes the NASA site as confirming climate change. However, not well known is the fact that NASA changed the statistics to enable them to support their conclusion – check out: www.naturalnews. com/045695_global_ war ming_fabricated_ data_scientific_fraud. html. It shows the original statistics & how they were changed to support their conclusion. Ever read of the intensive investigation by a
news reporter on how the IPCC(UN) arrived at their “evidence”? How the IPCC used only those “scientists” who supported climate change, but refused to use evidence opposing as presented by independent qualified scientists. Here is a summary of what this Canadian investigative reporter found: www.naturalnews.com/045695_ global_warming_fabricated_data_scientific_ fraud.html. How about a look at the track record of climate scientists predictions. This investigator found the following: www.therebel.media/_ climate_scientists_are_ effective_at_predicting_ the_polar_opposite_of_ what_is_actually_going_ on. World wide news about the Russian ship that was frozen in the Antarctic in December of 2013. Stuck for a couple of weeks before they were able to remove the
passengers. The news media did not tell you it was an expedition headed up by Chris Tunney, professor of “climate change” at the University of New South Wales in Australia. The expedition was to show the world how “man made emissions were creating havoc in that part of the world”. Yet, no “man made havoc” was found, and to their chagrin, their ship was “frozen in the ice”. You can read all about it including what is “actually happening” at: www.thenewamerican. com/tech/environment/ item/17277-global-warming-alarmists-stuck-inantarctic-sea-ice. From the above articles/evidence, yes probably 97% scientists beholden to their bosses/ governments promote climate change as their income depends on “toeing the line”. Interesting that independent climate scientists do not come to similar conclusions.
However, why would governments & the UN not want to promote “climate change”? Another wonderful tool for more taxes and wealth distribution. Should we believe in climate change? Yes, when the evidence shows it is happening. Am still waiting for the media to put out the many reports contradicting the UN/ IPCC reports. Strange, none of the dire predictions made by the climate change crowd has come to pass. No sense in reporting what other climate experts are saying. Not news worthy reporting that all climate change dire predictions are turning out to be just “hot air”. Based on the previous “Ice Age” predictions, I confidently tell my children, grand children that “this too will pass”. Pay no attention to these “doomsayers”. Art Daher

ing. Ms. Mastiff was barking at the back door every 10 minutes or so. There was no water or food that I could see. I was told by the local SPCA that animal cruelty issues, which she said was applicable in this situation, were now dealt with through a Provincial Hotline and was given the number (1-855-6227722). After telling the woman on the line the situation she commenced asking me questions. I couldn’t give her specific answers about how long they had been out, but walked outside with the phone and described the pug in a prone position with chin on the deck – then I saw and related to her that the pug’s body rose four times in what, from where I was (25 ft away), looked like hiccups. She then restarted the same series of questioning. I told her again that the dogs were in distress and I wanted her to dispatch someone immediately. She then got bureaucratically snarky and advised me to call the RCMP as they were the only ones permitted to enter the

Hot weather and backyard pets Who is accountable? Are there consequences? What planet do I live on? We have recently moved into our new home. I am retired so have spent every day at home, particularly in the garden. Over the past three weeks we have been distressed by the two dogs (Mr. Pug and Ms. Bull Mastiff) next door who have been left on the south facing back deck of our neighbour’s house every day. I have never seen the owners of the house but on three occasions we have knocked on the door and spoken to either the son or the daughter, telling them that the dogs were in distress. Mr. Pug barked incessantly and it was obviously that he had breathing issues as is common in the breed. Both dogs panting audibly. We could not see any food or water. Each time we told the children to bring the dogs into the house which they did. Yesterday morning I called the SPCA. Mr. Pug was very lethargic and, for the first time since moving here, was not constantly bark-

The warm ocean temperatures could impact not just this year’s runs, but the next couple of years as well, he said. Lapointe is also concerned the warm river temperatures are becoming a trend. “Fraser summer temperatures have been getting warmer over time, not inconsistent with the sort of predictions you would get from climate change models.” He said different individual sockeye stocks may perform better than others in warmer conditions, depending on their past exposure. More fishing may be possible for pink salmon, which return later in the summer.

(Clockwise from left) Drivers and logisticans survey a mud road. A two-year-old rests during treatment for a respiratory infection. Sandra Smiley has been blogging from the Democratic Republic of Congo while working with MSF.
At the front with Doctors Without Borders Chilliwack secondary grad offers insight into the world of overseas medicine Jessica Peters The Progress “As we wait for the 07h00 ferry—which, at 07h30, does not appear to be going anywhere anytime soon—I do a mental inventory of what I know about Bikenge. I’ve been told that, due to its remote location, its infrastructure is extremely poor: the roads are like Swiss cheese, the health centres barely function, and the local waste disposal system works only as quickly as the town’s feral dogs can eat.” The words of Chilliwack’s Sandra Smiley paint a vivid picture of her surroundings in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It’s her job to tell the world what she sees, as the communications manager for Doctors without Borders (MSF, Medecins Sans Frontiers). The organization calls
it bearing witness, or ‘témoignage’ in French. And Smiley’s words speak volumes. Since arriving in the DRC, she has only had the chance to post two blog entries. But they are intriguing, poignant and revealing. And it’s made all the more interesting locally, knowing that Smiley is a Chilliwack secondary school graduate. So how did a CSS grad land herself a role with such an esteemed organization? After graduation, Smiley headed off to study at McGill University in Montreal for her Bachelor of the Arts. She kept her job at the Chilliwack Arts Council, returning each summer to work with there. When she finished her masters degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science, she knew she wanted to work for a humanitarian organization. MSF “not only provides health-

care to the people who need it most, but also has an impressive track record in speaking out and and making change,” she wrote in an email to The Progress, from the DRC. While she’s currently working in the DRC, last year she worked as communication support in Guinea during the Ebola outbreak, and has traveled extensively to other countries with MSF, including Bosnia, Gambia and Guinea. In her introduction to her blog, she explains her new role. “My job is to make sure that you, at home behind your tablets and TVs, know what we’re seeing and doing in this part of the world and how it’s affecting our patients,” she writes. It’s a role that seems perfectly fit for Smiley. “In my varied career in communications, advocacy, and campaigns, I’ve interviewed officials in Minsk and people living with HIV in Maputo; peace-built in Bosnia and campaigned against fur in

Britain; worked with human rights defenders in the Gambia and busted Ebola myths in Guinea. “When I’m not working in the field, I’m thinking about when I’ll next be working in the field,” she adds. When contacted via email, Smiley took the time to explain those experiences in more detail. “In Gambia I was interning with a human rights organization called the African Centre for Democracy and Human Rights Studies,” she said. “I did that thanks to a grant from the Canadian International Development Agency (may it rest in peace). In Bosnia I was with a UK-based organization called Most Mira which runs an arts and peacebuilding festival for young people every year in Prijedor, one of the flashpoints of the Bosnian war.” She will be working in the DRC until early 2016, and posting her thoughts on the MSF blog roll as time and inspiration allows. Along with her words come stunning

photographs of her time there, including those of patients suffering from illnesses easily treated here at home, and the trials and tribulations of traveling in that country. She is just one of several bloggers offering a glimpse into the world of overseas medicine. The group of bloggers, who are speaking on their own behalf and not MSF, includes a Belgian doctor working in Pakisan, a British logistician working in Nepal, and an Australian nurse in Afghanistan. There are stories from medical assistants, pharmacists, project coordinators, and midwives from all over the world. As MSF’s website states, “a key principle of our organization is speaking out about what we see bearing witness or, ‘témoignage’. Our teams working around the world are key to this, as are our patients’ voices.” To read more of these stories online, see this story online at www.theprogress.com.

as regulated in every community. Trees that are under stress must get attention first. They are huge environmental allies that not only cool us but also sequester carbon, produce oxygen and collect pollution – and that’s just for starters. When watering is allowed, we must get soaker hoses around the drip lines and water as often and as deeply as we can. This is especially true of shallow rooted hedging plants like cedars. Once you have watered, dig down to see how far it has penetrated into the soil.
Wetting the top few inches is not adequate as you must get a good level of moisture down to the roots – it’s a matter of life and death. Even when using drip systems, in this continuing heat we need to check for adequate moisture levels. Plants of any type in containers are particularly vulnerable. With our continuous watering, we are leaching out most nutrients and creating starved plants. Slow-release fertilizers, like Osmocote 14-14-14, help a great deal, but you will also need to Continued: WATER/ p19

If water is scarce, divert water from your lawns to your plants. Lawns will recover from stress, while many plants will not. The idea is to water thoroughly and then let the plants dry out slightly between waterings. This is very important for hanging baskets

as well. Remember: Overwatering can be as bad as under-watering because roots begin to rot from which there is no recovery. Water wisely. With these hot and dry conditions, it’s very important to take the time and make the effort to look after all the plants in your garden and landscape as many have never been in such a water-stressed situation as we are experiencing now. Their survival is up to you.

supplement with a liquid fertilizer like 20-20-20, 15-3015 or organic fish fertilizer, either 5-1-1 or 0-10-10. The food these fertilizers supply is critical to getting all your plants back into a vegetative cycle and putting on lush new growth. Mophead and lacecap hydrangeas are far more water sensitive than most plants and need a sufficient
amount of water to prevent leaf and blossom burn. Rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias are all shallow rooted and they too need moisture to prevent leaf burn and extreme stress. Mulching them with 2 to 3 inches of fir or hemlock bark mulch helps retain moisture longer. Areas up against your home, particularly on the south and east side where you get reflected heat, will need more moisture checks than

Keeping young minds engaged Summertime - when the living is easy. School-aged children and youth have completed the school year and will enjoy some well-deserved rest and relaxation. This tends to be satisfying for a few days before the dreaded, “I’m bored” rears its head. The flexible schedule of summer lends itself to a combination of child-led imaginative playtime and structured activities. Balance between structure and freedom is important for all kids and youth. A summer spent in front of the TV or playing video games doesn’t offer as many benefits for a young person’s physical and mental health as going out and engaging with the world. Sitting down for a family brainstorming session and filling a jar with ideas for activities can be a great way to ward off the summer doldrums. These ideas could range from doing jigsaw puzzles, to drawing with chalk on the driveway, to helping a neighbour with weeding, or organizing the sock drawer. For youngsters who want to be out and about, our city and surrounding area have some great summertime activities. We live in an area with a tremendous selection of lakes
to swim in and hills to climb. Everyone has a preference. Your age and physical fitness will likely dictate your choice for hikes, and if transportation is a factor, there’s a Chilliwack public bus that runs all the way to Cultus Lake. In anticipation of all the water-related activities summer offers, our local YMCA is offering a free water safety course (until the end of June) that is free to all 3-12 year olds. For specifics, Marie please go to www. AMOS vanymca.org. The local Youth Services offers a variety of activities over the course of the summer for youth aged 12-18. These activities are free (and lunch is included), but pre-registration is required. See the Community Services website (www.comserve.bc.ca) for more information. Community Services also has a list of volunteer opportunities available in the community. The Chilliwack Arts Council offers a wide variety of classes and activities for young children
and youth over the summer. These programs have fees associated with them, but are a great opportunity to develop new skills ( https://chilliwackartscouncil. com/). The Fraser Valley Regional Library has an array of summer initiatives aimed at various age groups (see www.fvrl.bc.ca/ for their summer activities guide). Setting family or individual goals for summer reading is a great way to spur on literacy skills. As Jackie Kennedy Onassis said, “There are many little ways to enlarge your child’s world. Love of books is the best of all.” Many faith-based communities also offer summer programs and camps in our community. Ask a neighbour or contact a local church for more information. Whatever activities your family decides to participate in this summer, make sure there is space for running around and exercising the imagination, too. Summer is a great time to develop a slower rhythm and to enjoy a mix of relaxation and activities. Marie Amos, MA, is a Clinician with Child and Youth Mental Health, Chilliwack.

Claggett tore through the course with a four under par 58 to win this one. His round included five birdies, enough to beat Abbotsford’s Ryan Alexander (62) and Cutforth (65). Dyck’s low gross 67 earned him the 10-12 year old division over Mission’s Brian Dale (77). Abby natives swept the nine and under group with Burns’ 73 edging out the Nams, James (76) and Ted (107).

A dramatic seventh inning rally gave the Chilliwack Shuckers an 8-6 win over Maple Ridge and a provincial title at last weekend’s U-16C fastpitch championship. The Chilliwack Minor Fastpitch crew travelled to Kamloops for the year end tournament, which ran over three days at Charles Anderson Stadium. The Shuckers led off Friday afternoon with a 5-1 win over the Fleetwood Bandits. Catherine Toop pitched her team to victory, with Kyneesha Kingdon and Shawna Redekop smacking home-runs.
Kianna Folk led the offence in the second round robin game, going three-for-three at the plate in a 12-4 win over the Richmond Bulldogs. The locals looked unstoppable in their third game, an 18-0 rout of an overmatched North Shore Thunder side. Toop went the distance on the mound for the shutout and Lauren Balsillie led the attack with a four-for-four effort. The Shuckers ended the round-robin with an 8-5 loss to the Summerland Scorch, locked down the fourth seed in the playoffs and prepared for the Sydney Peninsula Power. They wouldn’t lose again.
