Chinook salmon are getting lots of support from their human backers. Fisheries staff and volunteers wearing hip waders and carrying sand bags have been helping to consolidate smaller channels in the Salmon River delta into one deeper one to help fish make it upriver to spawn. Ron Pederson, president of the Salmon Arm Fish & Game Club, says Fisheries and Oceans Canada contacted him in order to line up more help on the delta, should it be needed. “You can only do a little bit of work at a time, otherwise it disturbs the water too much...,” he says. “It’s a pretty hard job to do; you have hip waders on and when you walk you’re sinking almost up to your knees.” Hank Shelley with the Fish & Game Club, who worked in fisheries for 24 years, says he remembers a similar low-water problem in 2003, when about a quarter mile of channel was dug with shovels and sand-bagged. Meanwhile, upriver at Gene Puetz’s fish-counting gate on his farm in Silver Creek, he’s seen about 100 fish so far this season. “They’re trickling in,” he says, noting the fish hatchery in Merritt has a target of collecting 25 brood pairs. The hatchery, which can produce a better eggsto-fry ratio, strips the eggs and milk and fertilizes the eggs. They hatch from January to March and are eventually released back into the Salmon River. The hatchery took 14 fish late last week and See Heat on page 2

Continued from front another eight on Sunday, but do not take more than a third of the total run. “They need double what they’ve got, at least. It might be a slow process,” Puetz says. “We get chinooks right into October. Normally, the main spawn is the 10th to the 15th of this month.” Puetz said 220 fish went through four years ago. “Hopefully we’ll get at least that.” Stu Cartwright with Fisheries and Oceans Canada says water temperatures in Salmon Arm Bay reached 23 degrees Celsius during the hot weather, aided by low water flows. “Anything over 20 degrees is not good news for salmon. Of course we have milfoil and other things that complicate the situation.” However, he is optimistic that current measures will have some success. One concern Pederson raises is he’s been told tourists have been catching salmon from boats near Sandy Point. He has raised the concern with Fisheries and is waiting to hear back. He points out

Safeway closing Salmon Arm store By Martha Wickett
MARKET NEWS STAFF
Rumours about Safeway shutting down have circulated before, but this time it’s true. The store in Centenoka Park Mall will close its doors on Thursday, Nov. 5, probably about 6 p.m., says Keri Scobie, communications manager for Western Canada for Sobeys Inc. In 2013, Sobeys Inc. acquired Safeway operations in Canada. “These are never easy decisions to make when you close a store,
particularly with the impact it has on employees...,” she said. “This is really a regular part of our business operations. We continuously are evaluating our options to ensure we have the right store formats in the right market. We look at lots of factors – demographics, location, cost of improvements, historical sales and the competitive landscape.” She said 48 employees will be affected by the closure, “some of whom may move to other locations within

our store network.” Lance Johnson, general manager of the mall, said he wasn’t aware Safeway was closing when the Market News called Tuesday. However, he said, he’s been hearing the rumour over the past 10 years, so he has contingency plans in place. “I don’t think there’s another location in Salmon Arm that can offer what that location offers.” The Safeway store has been operating in Salmon Arm since 1980.

n Dave Reed stands next to the 17-foot Penobscot sailboat he recently built in Sicamous.
“That’s what I’d like to revive. People go on kayak trips and canoe trips, but they don’t typically do it much anymore with a rowboat,” he said. “And actually, rowing is a far more efficient way of propelling yourself. I’ve had several kayaks, and am probably going to make another one this winter, but rowing, you get your arms and your legs and your back into it, and you’ve got far more power and you can go far more distance carrying a far bigger load than you can with other means.” A clinical social worker by profession, Reed says he does all his construction projects, be it boats, houses or crokinole boards, in his spare time. While he knows of other hobby boat builders in B.C., Reed says most tend to focus on building “kayaks and canoes and things like that.” While pleased with his latest achievement, Reed suspects his next project will likely be less involved than the Penobscot. “I’ve got to make sure I don’t build one as complicated again,” he said. “It’s just a heck of a lot of work in it.”
TAMMY HOWKINS
Five years in the making, Dave Reed’s 17-foot Penobscot sailboat is ready to set sail, or at least take out for a row. Reed says he’s had a lifelong interest in boats and began making them when he was 14. The Penobscot is his latest, and he says the most labour-intensive he has ever constructed. “This one has been a long haul, it’s taken me about five years to make it,” said Reed. “It’s quite a complicated boat – certainly the most complicated one I’ve ever made.” The boat, explains Reed, is a lapstrake build, where the wooden hull planks overlap. “I think there’s seven planks on each side, each one has to be fitted for length, for curve and then, as they overlap each other, there’s a lip about an inch wide that has to be planed to make a tight fit with the plank next to it,” said Reed, adding he’s yet to make the mast for the rig – something he may get to next year. “It’s a complicated process to make them too,” said Reed.
Without sails, Reed’s Penobscot is still perfectly functional as a rowboat, and he says he’s just waiting for a nice day, weather-wise, to get the boat on the lake for a row. “It has provisions for two sets of oars, where typically one person can row from either seat to keep the boat level depending on the load,” Reed explained. “But also… you could have one person on each of the four oars. So two people on the same bench rowing side-by-side.” Reed’s passion for boats extends to rowing, having been part of a rowing team as well as having rowed 27-foot whalers in the navy. His vision for his latest boat, and the Shuswap, is to see a return to rowing as a non-competitive recreation through which people can spend time together, explore and receive a good workout in the process. “This is a boat where you can go from A to B and take all your camping gear and stay overnight,” said Reed. “One of my fantasies is to row around Shuswap Lake sometime and camp each night as I’m going along the way…

B.C. offering help to Syrian refugees By Tom Fletcher BLACK PRESS
The B.C. government has added $1 million to its budget for helping refugees settle in the province, and has opened a toll-free information line for those who want to sponsor people fleeing violence in Syria. Premier Christy Clark announced the funding in Vancouver Tuesday,
along with a toll-free information number for community groups and private sponsors at 1-877-952-6914. Clark said the province currently spends about $4 million a year to support the federal program that settles immigrants in B.C. The extra funds will be reserved for assistance to Syrian refugees, she said.
“It is our belief that it’s just not good enough to totally open our doors,” Clark said. “We have to make sure that when refugees get here, we’re doing everything that we can to help them realize the Canadian dream and find their way as seamlessly as possible in to British Columbia.” The one-time investment will be used for

Counterfeit cash in circulation Vernon-North Okanagan RCMP are warning area businesses and the public to be on the lookout for counterfeit American currency. In the last month, there have been numerous reports throughout the Okanagan of fake $20 and $50 U.S. bills being found in the region. At least three counterfeit bills have been found in Vernon and a couple of other neighbouring communities have reported receiving the funny money. All cases so far have involved counterfeit U.S. $20 and $50 bills. “All businesses are urged to carefully check the authenticity of any currency prior to accepting it as payment,” said Vernon-North Okanagan RCMP Const. Jocelyn Noseworthy. The three cases in Vernon are re-

lated to a couple of grocery stores and a bank, who received the fake bills in a night deposit. If you believe you have a fake bill, or have information in regards to the counterfeit currency, call your local RCMP detachment. “We believe it’s probably all related and we’d like to be able to track the movements on this,” said Noseworthy, who added the fake bills are “fairly good counterfeits.” Noseworthy said there are some online sites that will show the public and businesses the security features for American bills. “If you have any questions for any bills you do have, you can contact the RCMP and we’ll investigate the bill and confirm whether it’s authentic or counterfeit,” she said. There are no suspects in the matter. 171 Shuswap St. 250.832.2131

unlocking potential of future leaders The new school year is officially underway. While education is always evolving, big changes are coming to how teachers teach. In the coming years, traditional teaching is being phased out. No longer will educators be standing in front of the classroom lecturing while students follow along from textbooks. Instead, classrooms will be interactive with teachers discovering individual student’s passions. Teachers will direct and fuel those interests on a new learning path. Gone will be the days where everyone has to read the same tired book and write a report on it. Eventually, letter grades will be gone too, and grade-point-average won’t be the be-allend all to get into university. It’s a welcome change for students who don’t thrive in the traditional classroom setting. If teachers can tap into what individual students get excited about, the potential to unlock their brain from boredom and turn it into drive and passion is exciting news. Some of this type of teaching is already happening at Walnut Grove Secondary and the new Yorkson Creek Middle School, among other schools. This district has seen a lot of success with it. Many teachers are already adapting their teaching style to this new way of reaching students. There are no two students alike. Some children thrive on tests and report deadlines, others crash and burn. Change is hard for all, but this is a directive coming from the government that parents and students should support. Individual learning has the potential to unlock bright minds which can make for a bright future. Our future leaders and innovators are in our schools. –The Langley Times

OpiniOn
Published by Black Press Ltd. 171 Shuswap Street NW, Salmon Arm, B.C.
Wisdom behind catch-and-release I don’t know how many times over the years I have been asked how I can claim to be a practitioner of catchand-release while, at the same time, also write in my column sometimes about cooking and preparing fish for a meal. The answer is simple: I enjoy fishing. I do not see a conflict between catch-and-release and eating fish. Truth be told, there is an ever-increasing number of reasons why there is something to be said for catching and cooking fish from local waters. Quite simply, it is safer and healthier than using farmed or imported fish. I release the vast majority of fish I catch immediately and only keep a fish when I plan to eat it – usually right away as a shore lunch. I do not catch fish and put them in the freezer. I buy most of the fish I cook at home from one of several fresh fish shops in the area. That, however, is a whole other kettle of fish. As much as I enjoy fishing and eating fish, I do have concerns about wild
The GreaT OuTdOOrs James Murray fish stock populations and, consequently, advocate the practice of catch-and-release as a means of helping to prevent fish populations from dwindling or disappearing from what are, in certain cases, too heavily fished waters. I have completely stopped salmon fishing altogether and have stated that I will not cast another line for Interior salmon until their numbers come back significantly. I can only hope. A fair number of B.C.’s salmon and trout waters have been designated “catch-andrelease fishing only,” in an attempt to preserve the quality of sport fishing. Catch-andrelease has been similarly promoted by governments
as a management tool in an effort to reduce the cost of rearing and using stocked fish, while at the same time ensuring the sustainability of natural fish stocks. Countless studies have measured the effectiveness of catch and release on fish mortality and, in pretty well each and every study, the link between fish mortality and post release survival rates boils down to one thing: the amount of stress fish are subjected to while on the line. To put things in simpler terms, the manner in which fish are caught and played is as important as the manner in which they are released. Most fish are caught using either some form of artificial lure or natural bait. Numerous studies have compared mortality rates and angling methods, and have found the use of artificial baits, such as lures or flies, does significantly reduce both the incidence of fish swallowing bait too deeply and the rates of fish mortality. A majority of fish mortality studies would also seem to indicate the physiological
effects of stress (as a result of being caught) are usually pretty well reversed within a 24-hour period. One could infer from these studies that the use of heavy tackle is desirable in lowering mortality rates, and conversely, that lighter tackle and lower strength lines may increase the risk of mortality. Common sense, as well as scientific data, show the longer fish are out of the water the more they become stressed, and that a minimal amount of handling not only reduces the amount of postcatch stress, but also the risk of physical injury due to struggling and loss of body slime. Holding a fish out of the water puts added stress on its inner body and organs that are, in part, held in place by the external force of water pressure. I cradle fish right on the surface – but still in the water – when removing the hook. Proper catch-and-release practices are important not only to the survival of fish that are caught, but also to the future of fish generations in years to come.

Wood stove suspected in house fire
Friday, September 11, 2015 Shuswap Market News
Annual General Meeting Date:
Friday September 25th Time: 2:00 pm Where: Olde Town Centre at Blind Bay Resort
By Barb Brouwer

A fire destroyed a home Monday night in the 6700 block of Eagle Bay Road at Cinnemousin Narrows Properties. Columbia Shuswap Regional District Fire Services Co-ordinator Kenn Mount says the property is about two to three kilometres beyond the local fire suppression area, outside of CSRD’s response jurisdiction. “Taxpayers pay for fire suppression and there is a defined boundary driven by the Fire Underwriters Survey, which establishes how far we go and the type of rate residents enjoy based on water supply and proximity to a fire hall,” says Mount, noting the regional district’s response to the fire was limited. “We can run the risk of having an incident within boundaries with all the apparatuses outside of the fire suppression area.” To provide some assistance, the Eagle Bay Firehall staged apparatus on the fire suppression boundary and sent in a single secondary unit with minimal manpower to make sure the fire didn’t spread to the forest or into the fire suppression boundary. “We would only suppress it if it was a great threat but there were no immediate life safety issues and it wasn’t going to impact other areas,” said Mount Wednesday. “Imagine if this was a month ago in extreme heat; that would have had a different tactical response.”
Join us for a presentation by Kate Mancer, author of “The Future of Seniors Housing,” and a discussion on options for development in the South Shuswap.

n A wood stove is believed to be the source of a fire that destroyed this home in the 6700 block of Eagle Bay Road on Monday, Sept. 7. Mount says it sounds like the cause of the fire was a wood stove where flames got out onto the shake roof. “We probably would have been able to contain it to the roof,” he said. “We were lucky it was raining and the winds were calm. Mother Nature was supportive and residents were able to confine it to the property.” Mount spoke with the homeowner, who he says has been in the home for about a month, and put him in touch with CSRD’s Emergency Social Services. “We also sent out fire officers to make sure the overhaul was done properly,” he says, noting it is a phase in suppressing the fire in which
remaining property is salvaged and heavy equipment is used to overturn everything to make sure there are no hot spots that might flare up. “We were doing our own due diligence.” Mount says homeowners who live beyond fire suppression boundaries have to pay a huge premium, typically more than double the cost of insurance within boundary lines. “You have to understand the risk,” he says of people who buy property beyond fire suppression areas. “Hitting that range (distance) would require a satellite firehall.” Mount says he gets a couple of requests for service extensions every year.
But the process of extending fire suppression services is lengthy and involves many issues and a lot of research, including distance from a firehall, access to water, analyzing properties and more. He says some areas of the regional district are “maxed out” in terms of the number of properties already receiving the service. While the number of chimney fires is declining – 10 in 2012, four in 2014 and six so far this year, Mount reminds homeowners that this is the time to make sure chimneys are clean, especially where there is no fire service. Meanwhile, the Eagle Bay fire is under investigation by the RCMP.

Meet your federal election candidates Shuswap residents will have opportunities to see their federal candidates in action at a number of election forums in the area.
Sicamous The Sicamous and District Chamber of Commerce has announced it will be hosting an all-candidates meeting on Monday, Oct. 5, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Sicamous & District Recreation Centre. Doors will open at 6 p.m.
Both the Resource Centre and Sicamous Eagles’ buses will be available to transport residents who need it from the Sicamous Seniors Centre to and from the Recreation Centre. All four candidates in the North Okanagan-Shuswap riding have confirmed they will attend the debate. These include Mel Arnold of the Conservative Party, Cindy Derkaz of the Liberal Party, Jacqui Gingras of the New Democratic
Party and Chris George of the Green Party. The chamber of commerce is looking to the community to provide questions for the candidates ahead of the debate. Questions for one or all of the candidates can be submitted by phoning the chamber office during work hours at 250-836-0002, stopping by the Visitor Information Centre in the district building, emailing the chamber’s communications director at communi-
cations@sicamouschamber.bc.ca, or by filling out the form on the chamber website at sicamouschamber. bc.ca/events.
Salmon Arm Federal election candidates will need to think on their feet during the Salmon Arm All-Candidates Forum hosted by the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce. While each candidate will be given a chance to craft an
opening and closing statement, much of the time will be devoted to public questions that the candidates will not have heard beforehand. Questions can be submitted through the chamber’s website at www.sachamber.bc.ca. The forum will take place on Thursday, Sept. 17 at the SASCU Recreation Centre auditorium from 6 to 8 p.m. A second forum is set for Oct. 8 at the Seniors Fifth Avenue Activity Centre in Salmon
Arm. Start time is 7 p.m. Everyone is welcome.
Sorrento An all-candidates forum is also being held in Sorrento on Oct. 10 at the Sorrento Memorial Hall. Start time is 7 p.m. There will also be forums in Enderby, Armstrong, Lumby and Vernon.

18th Annual
Harvest
CELEBRATION Sunday sept 13, 2015 3pm - 6pm
By Richard Rolke black press
An almost devastating experience ultimately solidified Cindy Derkaz’s direction in life. It was 1967 and flames engulfed the historic Montebello Hotel in Salmon Arm. The inferno spread to other adjacent businesses, including Derkaz Shoes, owned by the then 11-year-old’s parents, Walter and Betty. “The store was substantially burned,” said Derkaz, the North Okanagan-Shuswap Liberal candidate. “The bank manager called the next morning and said the line of credit was cancelled because there was no business and then there was a call that there would be no insurance.” Her parents were left wondering how they would put food on the table, but the tide turned when Walter contacted Vernon lawyer Neil Davidson. Within days, all financial activity had been restored. “I decided then that I wanted to be a lawyer to help people with their problems,” said Derkaz. Born in Ontario, she moved to the Shuswap in 1958 at age three. Her dad ran the Consumers Co-Operative but he branched out and opened a shoe store in 1958. Ten years later, a store was added in

n Liberal candidate Cindy Derkaz, walks her dog Kesler along the Salmon Arm waterfront walkway. Vernon, where Derkaz worked shifts during summer holidays. Derkaz, 59, was focused at an early age. “I was horse crazy from the time I could walk and I was determined to have a horse at age nine,” she said. Trying to encourage this equine passion, her parents sent her to live with a Notch Hill family for the summer. She was barely on site when she negotiated terms to purchase a horse for $150. Derkaz graduated from Salmon Arm Senior High in 1972 at age 16, and immediately went off to law school in Vancouver. Completing her law degree in 1978, she articled in Salmon Arm, joined a law firm and eventually opened her own practice.
She sold the firm in 1991 and retired as a lawyer in 1996 so she could be more involved in the community. “I grew up as an only child and had the sense that you need to give back to the community,” she said. Derkaz has also been involved in literacy programs and the film society, but her proudest achievement is helping found the successful Shuswap Community Foundation, which uses endowments to support local charities. Another passion is running, which she often does with her husband of 26 years, Don Derby. Derkaz has accomplished half-marathons and she believes running has provided her with some basic skills to prepare her for

being an MP in Ottawa. “I’ve learned to be on the ground and notice the small changes. When you are running a route, you notice changes in the seasons and in people. In some ways, it takes the same focus (to run for office). You need the skills of concentrating and observing, setting a goal and accomplishing it.” While she was busy with her volunteer duties, Derkaz found it important to put all of that on hold and enter the political fray. “Over the last five years I watched the direction Canada was taking under the Harper government and I realized that if you don’t like what you see, you need to get active,” she said. “I was concerned

4 simple tips for budget friendly school lunches (NC) Packing a lunch for you kids can be a delicate balance of creating something that tastes good, is healthy and nutritious and cost effective. But meeting all of these criteria doesn’t have to break the bank, follow these tips and tricks to create an easy-to-make, affordable and delicious school lunch for your kids: Pack smart. Instead of putting each snack into different baggies, which can get expensive fast, group foods together in Tupperware’s for a bentobox style lunch. Keep cool. Freezing your kids’ favourite juice or large water bottle is a smart way to keep your family’s lunch box cool without investing in an icepack. The best part is that by lunch time it’ll be thawed out and ready for drinking. Get creative with leftovers. Making use of leftovers from last night
can be a great way to minimize waste and keep lunches interesting. Try using leftover roasted
every week. This new app was designed to replace cumbersome grocery coupons with a user-
see savings accumulate in your account within 24 hours. Once you hit the $20 mark, you can request to have a cheque mailed. A sweet way to save! This fun, healthy and wallet-friendly lunch is perfect to make for your kids to stay on budget and keep them fueled for the whole day. www.newscanada.com

Top tips to avoid coughs and colds at school (NC) With kids back to their regular routine of school and extracurricular activities, families often struggle to keep everyone healthy during the dreaded cough and cold season. Here are a few tips to keep your kids germ-free: • Start off with getting a good night’s sleep. Take cues from physical signs of sleepiness (yawning, difficulty focusing your eyes, a lack of concentration), indicating that it’s time to go to bed. • Be active as often as possible. Make exercise a priority for both you
and your family’s physiological and psychological health. For parents and children who stay active it’s common, to experience some post exercise pain or even injury. When injuries or pain occur, try relieving muscle pain by applying a topical like Arnicare Gel. The gel, which contains arnica montana and other medicinal ingredients, temporarily relieves muscle pain and reduces swelling and bruising. • Adopt healthy eating habits to feel better, naturally. As you get your children ready for
school, make a fresh start with healthy foods to nourish their brains and help them grow. • The fall means the start of the cold season. Look for a homeopathic medicine such as Coryzalia to relieve cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose and acute rhinitis in children ages one month and up and adults alike. • Nasal and skin irritations often accompany runny noses and congestion. Cicadermine is a homeopathic, antibiotic-free solution, to soothe skin and
facilitate healing of irritations, such as chapped skin, superficial wounds and redness from constant wiping and blowing. • When stubborn coughs arise, many parents think that they are out of treatment options for their younger children. But there is a solution available to relieve coughs in children under six. Stodal is a homeopathic honeybased cough syrup used to effectively relieve both dry and wet coughs in children from one to 11 years of age. Keep in mind, these homeopathic medicines may not
be right for everyone, always read and follow the label. To help parents survive the cough and cold season, the experts at Boiron have developed the “Homeopathic Medicine Finder” App, which helps users quickly and efficiently find the most appropriate homeopathic medicines to relieve symptoms from joint pain, insect bites, stress, colds and flu. You can find the recommended solution, its indication and dosage, coupons and store locations. The app is available at www.boiron.ca/app. www.newscanada.com

It’s time to start thinking about Youth Exchange. Are you between the ages of 15 and 18? Does a year overseas sound good to you? Early this month, the Rotary Club of Salmon Arm will be interviewing candidates for the Rotary Youth Exchange Program for travel the following school year (September 2016 to July 2017). Youth Exchange involves Rotary Clubs worldwide. We host a high-school aged student from another country here in Salmon Arm, and in exchange a community overseas hosts a student from this area. When you go to the other country, you attend school, learn the language, and get to experience the most amazing cultures. You will stay with families in the host country. Every student we have ever sponsored to go on the Program raves about it, and emphasizes how it has changed their lives. Carly just got back from a year in Colombia, and told us how much she had learned about the culture there, the interesting places she visited with her school and her host families – and she can speak fluent Spanish now! The year before, Steven came back from Japan, a place he had wanted to go for a number of years before. He told us about the different ways the Japanese do things, the food they eat, and how much he was welcomed by his host families – and he can speak Japanese. For this school year, Sam has just

Gabriel Di Bello, student from Brazil 2010-11, returned for a visit this spring.
Anxiety levels decreased around food security, and a positive change in behaviour was noted in vulnerable students. There was no stress or stigma for students to get the lunch support needed as items were made available to all children in need, including those who might just have left their lunch at home. Program coordinator Kari Wilkinson is thrilled to announce the program will be continuing, and funds have been secured to include high schools in Salmon Arm, Sicamous and Enderby for this year. To help raise the funds, the Salmon Arm Rotary Club will be raffling off a three-minute Askew’s Foods Shopping Spree again this fall.

Rotary School Lunch program expands In October 2014 the Salmon Arm Rotary Club, in partnership with Askew’s Foods, launched a school lunch program for children in need of daily lunch assistance at elementary schools. The program provided assistance to children from Falkland, Enderby, Salmon Arm, Silver Creek, Sorrento and Sicamous. The lunch program assisted approximately 250 - 275 children on a daily basis from October thru June. Kids were provided healthy foods including cheese, fruit, vegetables, granola bars, sandwiches, juice, and milk. Each school is responsible for shopping for its own lunch ingredients and distribution within the school. The positive outcomes from this program included improved attendance, and students more focused and ready to learn as a result of not being hungry.

Join in Saturday’s Paws for a Cause Some animals never know kindness. The good news is, you can fight animal cruelty in your community by registering and fundraising for the 2015 Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk, held in September to raise funds for abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals
throughout B.C. The Scotiabank & BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk to fight animal cruelty (benefitting the Shuswap SPCA Branch) will begin at Blackburn Park on Saturday, Sept. 12, from 9:30 a.m. The participants will walk in the Salmon Arm Fair Parade starting at 10:45 a.m.
Come out to see friendly faces and wagging tails! This year, participants in more than 30 communities throughout the province will walk to raise funds to help animals in need across British Columbia. “This is the largest single event to help fight animal cruelty
in British Columbia,” says Krista Constantineau, BC SPCA manager of fundraising events. “We are overwhelmed by the participation each year – it’s so great to see thousands of people come together across the province to help B.C.’s most vulnerable animals.”

GET ACTIVE!
How to help a loved one get more active be a good example.
1. Change the way you celebrate. Instead of offering sugary treats or junk food as a reward for an achievement or momentous occasion (such as a good report card, a promotion at work or a birthday), offer
a non-food gift. Even better, offer a gift that will help them get in shape, such as a gym membership or some sports equipment. 1. Do more activities together. Why not take a walk together after dinner? Or propose a bike ride on Sunday afternoon?
May is National Physical Fitness and Sports Month, and it’s time to talk about what you can do to make your life healthier so you can live better, longer. But what if you’ve already taken steps toward adopting a healthy lifestyle, while your spouse and kids linger in their old ways? With a bit of patience and understanding, you can share your inspiration and help them get moving too. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends a few tips for how to get a loved one to join you in being more active and fit. 1. Motivate! Dig down and empathize with your spouse or kids. You remember what it was like to
put off taking action, right? Tell your loved ones you know how hard it is to beat inertia. Invite them to join you at every opportunity. Don’t nag; just inspire and

Syria: Russia to the rescue? GLOBAL VIEWS Gwynne Dyer US Secretary of State John Kerry has just phoned Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warning him not to “escalate the conflict” by increasing Moscow’s military support for the beleaguered Syrian regime. He stamped his foot quite hard, telling Lavrov that his government’s actions could “lead to greater loss of innocent life, increase refugee flows and risk confrontation with the anti-Isil coalition operating in Syria.” What the Russians have actually done, so far, is to send an advance military team to Damascus of the sort that is normally deployed to prepare for the arrival of a much larger military force. They have also sent an air traffic control centre and housing units for its personnel to a Syrian airbase. It suggests that Moscow is getting ready to go in to save President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. It has given Assad diplomatic support, financial aid and
some weapons over the course of the fouryear-old Syrian civil war, but it will take more than that to save him now. That would include at least an airlift of heavy weapons, but maybe also direct Russian air support for Assad’s exhausted troops. They need it. Since the fanatical fighters of “Islamic State” (or Isil, as the US State Department calls it) captured Palmyra in central Syria in May, they have advanced steadily westward from their new base. One month ago they captured the mostly Christian town of alQaratayn, north-east of Damascus. (The inhabitants fled, of course). And now IS forces are within 30 kilometres of the M5, the key highway that links Damascus with the other parts of Syria that remain under government control. The jihadis captured Palmyra, by the way, because the “anti-Isil coalition” – the US Air Force, in practice – did not drop a single bomb in its defence. It made at least a thousand air strikes to save Kobani, the Kurdish city on the border with Turkey that was besieged by IS fighters, because the Kurds were US allies. Whereas Palmyra was defended by Assad’s soldiers, so the US let Islamic State have it.
One can imagine Kerry’s (and Obama’s) horror at the idea that by defending Palmyra they would be seen as protecting Assad’s brutal regime, but if Islamic State troops manage to cut the M5 it will be seen as a sign of the regime’s impending defeat. At that point, up to half the people who still live in government-controlled areas – around 17 million – may panic and start trying to get out of Syria. They would obviously include the religious minorities (Christians, Alawites, Druze), some 5 million people who have good reason to fear slavery, rape and murder at the hands of Islamic State. The millions of Sunni Muslims who have served the Syrian government and its army would also be at risk. So let’s say 4 or 5 million more refugees pouring out across Syria’s borders, to join the four million who have already fled. What they left behind would be a Syria entirely controlled by the extremists. The only remaining question would be whether the jihadis roll on through behind the refugees, overrunning Lebanon and Jordan as well, or whether they fall to fighting among themselves. All three major Islamist groups – Islamic State (which Turkey
and Saudi Arabia no longer support), and the al-Nusra Front and Ahrar al-Sham (which they still do) – are virtually identical in their ideology and their ultimate goals. However, they have some tactical differences, and Islamic State and al-Nusra fought a quite serious turf war last year, so maybe they will get distracted again. But
“Nobody, including the Russians, likes Assad’s regime, but it is the least bad remaining option.”
even if they do, Syria will be gone. This is what the Russians see coming, and they may be willing to try to stop it. When asked on Friday if Moscow intended to get involved directly in the Syrian fighting, Russian President Vladimir Putin would only say that the question was “premature.” Nobody, including the Russians, likes Assad’s regime, but it is the least bad remaining option. Indeed, it is the only alternative left to a jihadi victory. Most of the “moderate” antiregime rebels went home or fled abroad years ago, unable to

match the jihadis in firepower, in money or in frightfulness. The notion that the US can now create a moderate “third force” able to defeat both the jihadis and the Assad regime is a shameful face-saving fantasy Moscow used diplomacy to save the Obama administration from itself two years ago, when Washington was getting ready to bomb Assad’s forces in response to a (possibly spurious) allegation that they had used poison gas on civilians. The only way Russia can avert disaster this time, however, is to put its own air force into the fight – and maybe its own ground troops too. If it does, the key question will then be whether the United States lets Russia do the job that it is too fastidious to do itself, or whether it gives in to the clamour of its Turkish and Saudi allies – and they would be clamouring – to “stand up” to the Russian intervention. Since the United States doesn’t actually have a coherent strategy of its own, it’s impossible to predict how it will respond. For all Kerry’s bluster, they don’t know yet in Washington either.

I N P CHATTER at Village Lanes Fun Centre by Calyn Buresh
It’s here! It’s here! The happiest time of the year! For those of you who don’t know me, or if you are wondering what this column is all about, let me explain! If you ever used to bowl in Salmon Arm prior to 2002, (back when it was the original ‘J’ Lanes), I was the girl hanging around seven days a week. My grandparents, Joe and June Buresh established ‘J’ Lanes long before I was ever thought of, and my parents, Gord and Linda, owned and operated the business while I was growing up. I was doomed from the time I could walk. Bowling was in my blood, and I didn’t have a choice in the matter! Luckily for me, I fell in love with the sport. Hence, now, why I’m writing this column! I’m very happy to say that life panned out pretty well for me, and that I’m proudly managing our new family business, the bowling centre in Chase, Village Lanes! Mom and Dad are still in the picture, along with my main squeeze, Kelly; and we are fortunate enough to be back in the industry that we love so much. This column will be a spot to hear of bowlers’ weekly achievements, tournament results, and upcoming events. Fall Leagues have commenced at Village Lanes, and are near full! Having said that, we are hoping to get a few more people to join our bowling family for the 2015/2016 season. Bring your kids down for our Youth Leagues. Seniors, join up and make it an afternoon outing! And everyone else, join a league, have a cocktail or two, and let loose. That’s what we’re here for! I hope you enjoy catching up on whatever the Pin Chatter happens to be throughout the season! Talk to you all next week! Cheers!

Our company has been providing quality timbers and beams to customers for over 30 years. In 1983, Alan and his wife, Kim returned to the family farm to raise their two children. At this time, Alan started to re-build the mill that he had once worked in as a child. It took a year to re-build the old mill. Alan started cutting ties for the Railroad which were in great demand at the time. He was also cutting cedar cants for a re-saw mill along with beams and timbers for many homes that where built in Sicamous and the area. Alan and Kim operated this mill for seven years. Over time, the orders kept increasing and the old mill could not keep up with the increase of large oversized timber and beams. In 1990, Kim’s father (Merv Siegrist) and mother Anne had moved to Sicamous to become a partner. Alan and Merv bought a new mill large enough to fill the orders of the beams and timbers that the old saw mill could not handle. The next generation has now joined the business. Alan and his son Tyler work the mill together making a great father/son team. Our team at Hyde Sawmill takes great pride in their workmanship and in supplying a superior product to customers.

School has started, and with it the rote task of making lunches has begun. Unsure what to make and short of time, many of us revert to the “assembly line” lunch: mini yogurt, juice box, granola bar, cheese string or pepperoni stick, fruit snack.
ing a little time to chop and prepare veggies once a week is probably the best way to increase your veggie intake. They should last three to five days in your fridge, if stored in an air-tight container and grabbing a handful for lunches becomes easy. You can add a squeeze of your favourite dip as well. Yogurt – Flavoured yogurts contain a lot of sugar. One solution is to “dilute” your yogurt by mixing one carton of plain yogurt with one carton of your favourite flavoured yogurt. Spoon out in individual Tupperware containers and they are

“nut-free” varieties are not much better than a chocolate bar. For those of you prepared to designate an hour of prep at the beginning of the week, here are some ideas to upgrade your “assembly line” lunches: Hard boiled eggs - Many kids love hardboiled eggs; they are inexpensive, nutritious and can be kept for a week in your fridge. If peeled, they should be eaten within five days. Cheese cubes – making your own cheese cubes is generally cheaper than buying cheese strings or slices. Veggie sticks - tak-

While individually these choices are okay, the lunch as a whole is high in simple carbohydrates (sugar) and low in protein, fat, fiber, and many minerals and vitamins. Although convenient, the lunch does not provide good food value for your money and creates more garbage. For example, my daughter loves the mini yogurts with princesses on the package, but paying a dollar for a tablespoon of yogurt in a lot of packaging seems like a waste. And while granola bars are always a favourite, most of the

LEGGETT, BRUCE EDWIN 1924 – 2015
Community Newspapers We’re at the heart of things™
Bruce Edwin Leggett died on August 26 following a long life, well lived. He was predeceased by his brother Ivan in 2014. Bruce was born in Vancouver, grew up in Ioco, served with the RCAF in WW2, and then returned to his home town where he worked at Imperial Oil. Meanwhile, Bruce and his family frequently vacationed in the Shuswap. He loved this area and eventually acquired a parcel of land in the Notch Hill region where Bruce tried his hand at farming. At the same time, he established a small and successful contracting business which he operated until his retirement. As an active community member, for a decade Bruce organized the Cancer Society’s regional door-to-door fund-raising campaign. He was a long time social democrat and an active member of the New Democratic Party, once having sought a seat in the BC Legislature. He also served as a Trustee on the local school board representing the Carlin district. Bruce was well known for his good nature, his lack of pretence and his sharp wit, but above all for his kindness and his desire to put the needs of others before his own. He will be remembered by his family – his wife Barb; sister Jeanette; sons Bruce and Curtis; daughters Denice and Melanie as well as his grand and great grandchildren, his many friends and his cat Freya. There will be no service. Memorial donations in Bruce’s name may be made to the Jacqui Gingras campaign, North Okanagan Shuswap NDP, Suite #6, 3107A - 31st Avenue, Vernon, BC, V1T 2G9 or to the Canadian Cancer Society, 565 – 10th Avenue West, Vancouver, BC V5Z 4J4.

Auditions - Mt. Ida Harmony
Just over 75 years ago, about 20 men got together in the rooftop gardens of a hotel in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to “just sing for fun.� They enjoyed the experience so much that the Barbershop Harmony Society was formed, and it has now beome the world’s greatest hobby, as well as the world largest all male singing association, with members participating in Barbershop Harmony on every continent the world over! For over 75 years now, the Barbershop Harmony Society has made tremendous strides in their music learning techniques, so the ability to readily read music is not really necessary. All that is needed is the desire to sing together with a fun bunch of guys! Mount Ida Harmony is hoping to increase their numbers by holding “Auditions For Admission.� So men, if you are over 14 years, and if you like to “sing in the shower,� you’ll love singing together with Mount Ida Harmony on Thursday, September 17 at the Community Room at Askew’s Uptown Store! No obligations! No commitments! No strings attached! If you still have questions, please contact Ron Long 250-833-1972.
