More than 200 people came out to rev their engines and hit the track and trails for the third annual Papa John Classic, hosted by the Revy Riders last weekend. The two-day event saw 193 people register for Saturday’s poker ride, which was followed by a party at Glacier House Resort. On Sunday, the club hosted a race around the motocross track, endurocross track and a new loop trail. Local Seth Chevrier won the junior race, while Ian McKill from Vernon won the A class. Ryan Montgomery was the top local, finishing fourth. Revy Riders president Chris Pawlitsky was ecstatic about the success of the weekend, saying it might be the biggest dirt bike event in Western Canada.

Former mayor Geoff Battersby served as moderator. Only about 150 people attended the forum; it was a mostly ABC (anyIt’s one but Conservative) crowd who aptime plauded each response no matter who for it came from. A few main themes emerged. Wilks had the task of defending his record in front of a polite, but unfriendly audience. He did best when he was able to talk about the initiatives he helped support by bringing in Federal funding to the riding. Those included money for rural high-speed Internet, Vote for Don JOHNSTON $300 million in spending on national Kootenay-Columbia parks, and funding for the Big Eddy www.donjohnston.liberal.ca Waterworks.

against his own governing party on private member’s bills more than all but one other MP. Meanwhile, the other candidates said they would vote with their constituents no matter what. The candidates were also asked what they would do to improve the perception of politics and politicians in Ottawa. Green said it was a matter of electing credible and sincere candidates to Parliament. Stetski said the tone of Parliament needed to change, and that it should be about supporting good ideas, no matter which party puts them forward. Johnston said the power of the Speaker of the House needed to be tightened to improve Parliament. Wilks said he was “astounded” at the partisan politics when he arrived in Ottawa in 2011. He said he wouldn’t televise question period, where the worst partisanship takes place, but he encouraged people to pay attention to Parliamentary committee work, where the bulk of the work gets done in a civilized manner. In closing remarks, Wilks said the role of the MP was to have to listen to community leaders across the riding and bring back resources from Ottawa to fix the deficiencies in the riding. “We need to do that by continuing to balance the budget, continuing to ensure we have low taxes, and continuing to ensure that families are able to have as low a tax climate as they can,” he said. “That is the role of the Conservative government – to lower taxes, create jobs and to make sure every family has much money in their pocket as possible.” Johnston asked voters to look at the Liberal platform and said, “We need to reengage as a country. “It begins by opening up to a spirit of cooperation, communication and working together, because this country can be better than it is right now, and that’s what this election is all about,” he said. Stetski reached out to Green and Liberal supporters by saying they could feel proud of their party, but this time they should vote NDP if they wanted to defeat the Conservatives. “In this riding, the only party positioned to ensure that Stephen Harper doesn’t get to destroy our values is the NDP,” he said. Green had the final word, and retorts for both Wilks and Stetski. He elicited a laugh when he noted the polls that had Stetski in the lead had a huge margin of error. Then he noted that if people kept voting like they did in the past, what’s the point of elections? Finally, he responded to Wilks and said, “The key role of government is not to maximize the money in our pockets, it’s to make sure everybody has some money in their pockets.” That remark got the biggest applause of the night.

to meet with local community and First Nation leaders, and then bring back resources from Ottawa to help their needs. Wilks’ three opponents chimed on similar themes. They all said they were running because they didn’t like the direction Canada was heading under Stephen Harper’s Conservatives. They all said Canada needed to invest in sustainable energy and address climate change. They all promised to bring in proportional representation. Their main goal was to convince undecided and nonpartisan voters they were the best candidate to represent the riding in Ottawa. Stetski presented himself as the only candidate with the potential to defeat Wilks. A vote for the Liberal Party or Green Party is a vote for the Conservatives, he said in his closing remarks. Meanwhile, Green and Johnston did their best to convince people otherwise, with Green touting his party’s progressive platform and Johnston saying he would be a strong voice for rural issues in Ottawa. The candidates were questioned on a variety of issues, starting with climate change. They were also asked about child care, seniors’ pensions & old age security, the national parks, poverty reduction, the digital economy, healthcare, how they would vote in Parliament, and promoting democracy. No questions were received from the public on jobs and the economy, which have been the dominant themes of the national election campaign. For most responses, each candidate touted their respective party’s platform. The most bizarre response was when Wilks responded to a question about addressing poverty by saying that a solution was to allow food banks and soup kitchens to give out expired groceries that may not have gone bad. A few questions gave the candidates the opportunity to go off their party talking points. One asked how candidates would act if forced to choose between voting in support of their party, or in support of their constituents. Wilks gave perhaps the most honest response when he said he would always vote with the party on confidence motions. He elicited a roar from the audience when he said that not doing so could result in becoming an independent MP and/or the fall of the government. He also pointed out that he voted 52° 24' 0" N

Election 2015: Questioning the candidates

Welcome to the Review's coverage of the 2015 election. We joined up with our colleagues at seven other newspapers in the Kootenay-Columbia riding to come up with 12 questions for the candidates. Each week leading up to the Oct. 19 election, we will publish the candidates' responses to two questions. We hope their responses help you decide who to vote for.

The news for CBC just got worse. We’re now hearing that the Harper Conservatives intend to sell off CBC’s assets in the middle of a highly contested election. At the very least, this is morally wrong! The CBC is our national voice and is considered an integral part of our national fabric. When Canadians talk about Canadian values, a strong CBC is often stated as one of those values. Canadians across the country depend on the National, As It Happens, Cross Country Check Up and the Sunday Edition to stay in touch with what is happening in our country and in our world. And here in Kootenay Columbia, stories and experiences are shared by listening to Daybreak South and Radio West. When I decided to run for MP, I made a list of things that concerned me most about the direction that Stephen Harper is taking our Canada. On that list were my deep concerns for the CBC. Successive Liberal and Conservative governments have slashed funding for CBC/ Radio Canada, first the Liberals with a $415 million cut, followed by an additional $115 million cut by the Conservatives. An NDP government will reverse the Conservatives’ $115 million cut and provide long-term, stable funding for the CBC. We will usher in a new era of innovation, independence and stability for Canada’s public broadcaster.

It is the position of the NDP that it is time to abolish the unelected, unac-

CBC-TV’s first broadcasts were in 1952. In 1958 CBC became a crown corporation. In 1968 the CRTC was created to control, protect and enhance Canadian content. CBC TV transmitted 90 per cent Canadian entertainment. The majority of viewers chose to watch American content on Canadian private broadcasters. When cable began in 1991, Parliament attempted to control what Canadians could watch in their homes; however, they didn’t foresee the impact of satellite beginning in 1994. In the 500 channel universe, broadcasters and cable/satellite companies amalgamated with Internet providers and newspapers. An explosion of entertainment fed to consumers on the Internet has further eroded influence of the CBC on Canadian’s reality. CBC has tried to adapt with new platforms and services. As they strive to be relevant to Canadians in this new reality, reasonable taxpayer support of the CBC should continue.

CBC/Radio-Canada is part of the core fabric of our country. As our national public broadcaster, it has defined what it means to be Canadian. My own life is deeply enriched by CBC Radio. We need to re-invest in a CBC/Radio-Canada that is distinctly public and distinctly Canadian. The Green Party will ensure that CBC and Radio-Canada have adequate and stable funding. We will increase their federal core funding by $315 million per year to rebuild local coverage and capacity. We will also change the governance structure so partisan political cronies will no longer be appointed to the CBC board of directors.

NDP leader Thomas Mulcair has shown Canadians that politics can be filled with feel-good promises that have little, if any, chance of being delivered. Mulcair tells us he will abolish the Senate. He intentionally ignores an April 2014 Supreme Court of Canada ruling that decided reforms require the approval of at least seven provinces representing at least 50 per cent of the population. The Supreme Court ruled that Prime Minister Harper’s proposed reforms, including

I agree with Canadians that the Senate cannot continue in its present form. Its legitimacy has been seriously undermined by scandal and hyper-partisanship, and its constitutional role to represent regional and provincial interests has been abandoned. The Senate must be reformed during the next Parliament. The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that abolishing the Senate requires the unanimous consent of all provinces. The Green Party believes the question should be put to the people of Canada. Green MPs will advocate that Parliament appoint a non-partisan commission to hold hearings across the country to listen to Canadians, explain the issues at stake, and discuss options for reform. The commission would be required to come up with a serious reform proposal that involves a

CBC is a critically important institution and service. CBC is a place for Canadians to share the great diversity of this country and to have conversations about Canada, its uniqueness, its place in the world, and its achievements and aspirations. The role that CBC radio plays in rural areas is particularly important. I recently did an interview on CBC radio and followed that with a tour of the riding. In every community we stopped in at least one person commented on the interview, and in some cases many did. It was amazing to realize how many people that interview reached and only CBC could do that. Fortunately, the feedback was universally positive. CBC binds us together in important ways and that is why the Liberal Party will invest $150 million in new annual funding and reverse the Harper cuts. I look forward to many years of CBC radio with my breakfast.

The dissolution of the Senate would require the support of seven provinces representing 50 per cent of the population. Recent attempts to make significant constitutional changes have all failed. Regardless of what Mr. Mulcair is saying, the process would be lengthy, expensive and the likelihood of success extremely low. We need to focus on changing the hyperpartisan nature of the Senate and the ideologically driven nature of appointments. Justin Trudeau accomplished the most significant reform in Senate history simply by cutting the ties with the Liberal caucus so

Two survive bear attacks ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com Two men escaped injury following separate bear attacks in the Revelstoke area last week. The first incident was on Saturday, Sept. 19, at around 8:30 p.m. when a CP Rail worker was attacked while working on the tracks seven kilometres east of town. Conservation Officer Jared Connatty said the man was working in a 10-ton service truck when he got out and walked to the rear of the vehicle. "As he approached the rear of the vehicle he heard a sound on the bush side of the tracks," said Connatty. The man saw a cub on top of the embankment, then the mother below. "She charged at him and struck him. He punched the bear on top of the head with his fists," said Connatty. "As he was being knocked down, he was able to regain his footing, jump onto the service deck of the truck, run along the truck and jump into the cabin." Connatty said the incident was unusual because bears tend to flee busy, noisy areas, but in this case the animal may have become habituated to the noise. He added the attack did not appear to be predatory and they had no intention of killing the animal. "What we do know is it's a non-predatory incident because if she wanted to follow through, she had all the opportunity to do so and didn't," he said,. The second incident occurred in the afternoon of

Sunday, Sept. 20, when a man was attacked while walking his dog west of Revelstoke. According to the man's daughter, he was walking his dog along the railway tracks in the West Revelstoke area, towards the pole yard, when the attack happened. She said her father just spotted a bear cub when he was charged at by the mother. What happens next is unclear as the victim was knocked out, however it appears the bear was chased away by the man's dog. Connatty said the incident was investigated, however no signs of any bears were detected in the immediate area of the attack, though bear sightings have been reported nearby. "That specific site, we didn't recover any bear scat, we didn't recover any bear tracks and the canine unit deployed would detect if there's a bear in the area," he said. The two attacks coincide with a spike in bear incidents in Revelstoke. Sue Davies, the coordinator for Bear Aware, said she received three reports recently of bears acting aggressively. One involved a bear slowly chasing a jogger, another involved a bluff charge, and a third involved a bear defending a pile of garbage. "We've seen very little this summer but there may be a little wild food gap and the bears are in that phase where they're really desperate for food," she said. "It's not surprising but it's important to make sure it doesn't get to the point where the bears are defending our garbage."

Wayne Stetski, from previous page countable Senate. And we are seeking a mandate from Canadians to do just that. This is part of our platform for renewed democracy. We also want to make 2015 the last election that uses the First-PastThe-Post electoral system which has allowed Stephen Harper’s right-wing government to attack our fundamental values with only 39 per cent of the vote. An NDP government will bring in mixed member, proportional representation voting in our first term. David Wilks, from previous page Senate elections and term limits, were illegal. The court also ruled that outright abolition could occur only if all 10 provinces agreed. Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard insists the Senate's troubles are what he called ''administrative dysfunction" that can be fixed. He vowed to fight any effort to scrap the Senate. The majority of Premiers, including Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, support Couillard’s position There is a constitutional stalemate. Saying, “I’ll just abolish it,” giving Canadians false hope is just dishonest.I will work with local and regional partners such as the Columbia Basin Trust and support their Environment Strategic Plan which includes five goals: water, ecosystems, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, environmental education & stewardship, and environmental capacity building to strengthen communities. Bill Green, from previous page Senate, either elected or independently selected, with a new distribution of seats and new powers. The constitutional proposal should then be put to the people for approval in a national referendum. The referendum question would ask Canadians which option they favour: the reform proposal or abolition? There would be no option for the status quo. Don Johnston, from previous page Senators are independent and no longer subject to party control. We would implement a new, non-partisan, merit-based, broad and diverse process to advise on Senate appointments (similar to the process of appointing people to the Order of Canada). This would completely change the partisan nature of the Senate and allow us to get onto important challenges like climate change and the economy.

Libertarian candidate drops out REVIEW STAFF WRITER Christina Yahn, the candidate for the Libertarian Party, dropped out of the Federal election campaign. In an e-mail to local media on Monday, she wrote: "Due to personal reasons, I regret to announce my resignation as a candidate for the 2015

election. I wish the best to fellow candidates and I look forward to future political endeavours when I am able to participate. I appreciate being included in the Q&A series thus far to offer the perspective of liberty." Yahn did not take part in a series of election debates last week, including the one in Revelstoke.

Men lose everything in fire ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com Two men are homeless after a raging fire destroyed their home west of Revelstoke Friday night. The fire broke out at a home on 19 Mile Road, just off the Trans-Canada Highway about 30 kilometres west of Revelstoke, sometime in the late evening of Friday, Sept. 24. Fortunately, the two men who lived in the home were able to escape before the building became fully engulfed in flames. They said no one else was inside. They were both outside the house, one man sitting inside the car smoking the cigarette, and the other pacing on the street in only a t-shirt. The man in the t-shirt said he was asleep when he got woken up by the smell of the smoke. He and his friend rushed outside, but were unable to save any of their belongings. He said everything he

Pride

Stone Cold Crazy

Toronto International Film Festival screening presented in partnership with Safe Spaces Revelstoke. Margaret Thatcher’s iron-fisted rule over 1980s Britain prompted waves of political protest. Perhaps the most amazing response of all occurred when Welsh coal miners and London lesbians and gays found a common cause. Pride tells the story of that unlikely alliance.

Queen Tribute Band Stone Cold Crazy is Vancouver’s foremost tribute to legendary UK rockers, Queen, capturing their spirit, spectacle and songs with power and grace. Taking their mutual love of all things Mercury into the hearts and minds of classic rock fans, they skillfully deliver quintessential Queen from throughout their chart-topping career.

Revelstoke Crossing shopping centre would add $20 million to economy, developer says ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com The proposed Revelstoke Crossing shopping centre development would contribute $20 million and add 400 jobs to the local economy, according to a report by the proponent. Hall Pacific is looking to develop the vacant property at the intersection of the Trans-Canada Highway and Highway 23 North by building a shopping centre that would include a grocery store and pharmacy as anchor tenants. The proposal has sparked a spirited debate about the impact the shopping centre could have on Revelstoke. Some say it would boost the local economy, create jobs and draw people into town; others fear it would take dollars away from downtown businesses and turn Revelstoke into a generic highway town. Hall Pacific is arguing the economic benefits to the town would be substantial. In a project rationale provided to the Review by the city, the developer says

the shopping centre would generate $20 million in economic activity, increase the property tax base by $500,000 per year, and create 200 short-term and 200 longterm jobs. The developer argues the project would enhance a prominent highway location "in a manner that is representative of the form and character of this alpine community and marketable to highway travellers." The proponent also argues the development would provide a way to market the town to passing tourists who otherwise might not stop here. It would lead tourists to spend money in Revelstoke instead of elsewhere, and might also stop locals from making out-of-town shopping trips. "Finally, as the site is bare land and fully serviced with both water and sewer, it allows for a new development of this scope to be financially feasible from a land acquisition and construction standpoint, which could not be achieved in areas of higher density," they write. The report says the development would

create about 200 jobs during construction and another 200 permanent jobs once it's finished. The report makes use of the 2006 Revelstoke Retail Strategy to argue the town can handle another 67,000 square-feet of retail space. It would target locals and the millions of travellers who pass through town on the highway every year. The report says the development would target national-level tenants that would bring in competitive pricing and a high-standard of quality that would benefit residents. The plaza would include a mix of traditional and contemporary designs and would be built using materials such as cultured stone, acrylic stucco, cement fibre siding, coloured metal roofing and timberframe wood elements. The developer has set an ambitious opening date of July 2017. You can read the full project rationale on the Review website. Note: The public hearing for the shopping centre took place after press time. Check our website for coverage.

Adventures at night

Meghan Anderson navigates the high ropes course at SkyTrek Adventure Park on a rainy Friday night last week. SkyTrek and the Enchanted Forest both opened for two nights over the weekend. Screams could be heard coming from the Enchanted Forest, which was turned into a haunted house for the night night. Meanwhile, the darkness added a new element to the ropes course at SkyTrek. The highlight being flying down the zip lines with the headlamps off. This was the first time the two sister-attractions have opened at night and owner Blair Johnson said they would look to do it more often in the future. ~ Photo by Alex Cooper, Revelstoke Review

National Character Conference

Andrea Superstein sings more than just jazz IMOGEN WHALE

Special to the Review When Andrea Superstein performs in Revelstoke at the Regent on October 2, audiences can expect a unique jazz performance. “The classics are great,” Superstein says. “And I think I have some strong modern takes on jazz standards. But I also perform jazzy indie songs and pop songs, including Radiohead. I play songs you might not expect to hear.” The variety makes perfect sense to Superstein. “I don't listen to just jazz,” she says. “Music can be so many things. I think it's nice for the audience because they probably have a variety of genres they listen to as well.” The Galaxie award nominated artist is a fan of French CBC and Quebec indie artists. Originally from Montreal, though she calls Vancouver home, Superstein finds listening to music performed in French a way to stay connected to her roots. She performs several songs in French. “The same song performed in French can feel very different,” she explains. “The translations are not exact and there is a romance in the French versions.” Some songs, she admits with a laugh, sound better in French. While her favourite songs to perform may vary depending on the day, I Want to Be Evil is an all time favourite audiences can expect to hear. A drama teacher by day in Vancouver, Superstein didn't start performing jazz songs until she was an undergraduate student studying theatre. Her love of performing, rather than just singing, lends itself to her shows. “As a performer I feel like I should take the audience on a journey. I try to engage with the audience and create a reciprocal experience. I think part of being a performer is to ensure your

audience is not just passively listening,” she says. When it comes to her students, Superstein's enthusiasm is palatable. “I find the energy of youth to be intoxicating, I love working with students,” she explains. “Especially those with no experience but who have a drive or interest or raw talent. Cultivating artistic interest and talent in someone is inspiring.” Her new record, Stars, is filled with both originals and cover songs and set to be released November 13. Revelstoke audiences will be getting an advanced preview of Superstein's new material as well as the opportunity to purchase the new record before it becomes widely available. She worked with Juno winning producer Les Cooper to bring the record to life. “He brought so many more layers to the music,” she says of the producer she actively sought out. “It was what I was looking for and I'm so happy with the result. I met him in Vancouver, though he is from Toronto, so recording was a long process involving two trips to Toronto.” The end result was very much worth the effort. Superstein is currently writing more music, though with a 10-month- old baby it can be tricky to get into the creative process. “It's easier,” she concedes. “Now that baby is sleeping through the night and I'm not a zombie in the evenings. From the few gigs I did this summer, I looked forward to uninterrupted creative and adult time. I try to think about music at that time.” When she's with her daughter, Superstein is in the mom zone. “It's hard to focus on being musically creative,” she says. “Because I want to focus on my daughter.” Superstein keeps busy, but she is clearly thriving. “I'm juggling lots of balls at the moment,” Superstein says. “But I don't want to give up any of the things I love.” Andrea Superstein plays the Revelstoke Jazz Club in the Selkirk Room of the Regent Hotel on Friday, Oct. 2, at 7:30 p.m.

ADVERTORIAL

Literacy campaign launches in Revelstoke Community leaders and volunteers will join Black Press and the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) on October 7th to raise awareness about the importance of literacy and to celebrate the power literacy has in Revelstoke. The 5th Annual Reach a Reader campaign will raise funds for Revelstoke’s community-based literacy programs. Why literacy? Statistics indicate that up to 45 per cent of BC’s adult population has difficulty with some daily living tasks - due in part to limited literacy skills. These include reading a newspaper, filling out an application form, reading a map, or understanding a lease. “Literacy is not just the ability to read or write. People today must be able to fill out online materials, service agreements, job applications, and use social media,” says Tracy Spannier, Revelstoke Community Literacy Coordinator. “Through our Reach a Reader campaign, we hope to increase awareness of literacy needs in our community and raise funds to support the literacy programs and services available for children, families, adults, and seniors.” In Revelstoke, funds will help support the Parents as Literacy Supporters (PALS) program. This program helps parents support their children’s early learning and language development. CBAL partners with kindergarten teachers throughout School District 19

to offer PALS to all kindergarten families. The program provides parents with tips, tools and strategies to support their child’s learning. Linda Dickson, teacher at Begbie View Elementary, says her students are excited to bring their families into their classroom to learn together. She says, “Parents learn great ways to support their young learners and PALS gives teachers an amazing opportunity to show parents what is happening in kindergarten.” You can support the Reach a Reader campaign by making a donation in exchange for a special edition of the Revelstoke Review on October 7th. Volunteers will be on the street with papers in hand at Coopers and Grizzly Books between 10 am and 6 pm. You may also donate online at chimp.net/groups/revelstoke-reach-a-reader-campaign.

Focus shifts to future following first Axis Mundi ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com The first Axis Mundi has come and gone and the reviews have been almost entirely positive. The lineup was great, the vibe was excellent, and things ran mostly smoothly. Only one thing went wrong. "The weather was devastating," said organizer Hugo Rampen. "That aside, I thought the event design was really good. I thought it worked very well. People seemed appreciative of the music and what we tried to achieve with the lecture series, the adventure market and the activities we could do considering the rain." I met with Rampen at the Axis Mundi office on Campbell Avenue on Thursday. A few days after the event ended, he was the last of the staff there and he was busy paying bills — a lot of which will come out of his own pocket. "We lost money," he said. "I'm adamant we pay all the bills, so that money comes from me and I'm not a rich guy." The first Axis Mundi festival sold 700 tickets for the big Saturday night show. Rampen estimates the rain cost organizers another 1,000 ticket sales. Otherwise, things went well. "I think the businesses got it and everyone seemed to enjoy it," he said. "The concept went over well." The festival ran smoothly despite some last minute changes. The Friday shows and most of the day events were made free — a decision that was designed to build up excitement and create a vibe for the weekend. On Saturday, the big outdoor show was a hit, despite – or possibly because of – the rain and mudpit in front of the stage. On Sunday, the stage company had to be convinced to move the PA inside because of safety issues. "It took five hours to shift gear and it took some convincing from me to the PA company to make it happen," said Rampen. "It was my company's reputation on the line and I'm adamant you have to put the safety of your patrons as the top priority." In the end, attendance for Sunday was capped at just under 300 people, and the decision likely resulted in lost ticket sales. Rampen praised the volunteers, especially Martin Ralph and his crew of sound techs that handled the backline at many shows. Overall, he said the volunteers were "rock solid." "Every one of them stepped right up. (There was) a lot less volunteer truancy here," he said. Now, the focus shifts to the Axis Mundi Solstice festival tentatively scheduled for next June. Rampen said he will be meeting with local supporters like the Revelstoke Arts Council, Chamber of Commerce, Revelstoke Accommodation Association and Revelstoke Mountain Resort to talk about things moving forward. "I'm excited about the whole event and I'm encouraged by the process and how we handled it and the team we developed, it's just not easy taking a financial hit like that," he said. Peter Nielsen, the vice-president of RMR, said he was excited to see the venue at the resort in

use and liked the potential it showed. "Our look at this festival and what we really see as the upside to it, is we looked at this one as investing in the future," he said. Nielsen also sits on the boards of the Revelstoke Accommodation Association, Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce, and Tourism Infrastructure Committee. While he said none of the boards had met yet following the festival, he said there would likely be interested in keeping Axis Mundi going, "From the conversations I had at both of those boards, it was about investing in an event that would drive awareness of Revelstoke as a destination and drive them here," he said.

Sheena Janette Froment July 20th, 1939 - Sept. 22, 2015

YOUR NEWSPAPER:

Katherine Johnson Jan 28, 1928 ~ Sept 15, 2015

After a long and courageous battle with Alzheimers Disease, Sheena chose a sunny fall day to start the next leg of her journey. She was predeceased by her son Paul Froment in 1979, as well as her parents Dave and Molly Pottie. She is survived by her devoted husband of 57 years, Phil Froment and a large extended family. Including brother Angus (Gail) Pottie and in-laws Norman (Barbara) Froment, Paulette (Wayne) Turner, Louise (Jack) Whitney and Joanne (John) Webber. Plus many special nieces, nephews and special friends. Sheena also enjoyed a close relationship with her great-nephews Alex and Max and niece Paige (Peter) Mittelsteadt who spent much time with her in the early years of her dementia. Sheena was born in Salmon Arm in 1939, moved with her family to Haney where she spent most of her childhood, eventually she made her way back to Salmon Arm to spend her teenage years living with her beloved grandmother Grannie Peak. She met Phil in Salmon Arm and they were married shortly after she graduated in 1957. Paul, her only child was born December 28, 1958. Phil's work with The Department of Highways took them to many communities in BC, including Salmon Arm, Revelstoke, Nanaimo, Port Alberni, Victoria, Prince George and finally settling in Kamloops in 1993. Despite having to rebuild friendships and homes in new towns she always found interesting jobs including BC Hydro, school board offices, local newspapers and eventually retail. In Kamloops she settled in for many years at The Bay in the shoe department where she amassed a considerable collection of her signature red shoes. During the earlier Kamloops years she enjoyed visiting with friends, bowling leagues and exploring the Oregon coast and Mexico with Phil. Phil would like to extend his most sincere thanks to all the devoted staff and medical professionals who spend their days caring for Sheena and so many others like her struggling with dementia at the Kamloops Seniors Village in full time care. The Reverend Father Fred Weisbeck will celebrate the Funeral Mass in Holy Family Parish Church, 2797 Sunset Drive, Kamloops on Friday, October 2nd, 2015 at 11:00a.m. A reception will follow. Condolences may be expressed at www.schoeningfuneralservice.com. Donations in Sheena's name would be greatly aprreciated to The Alzheimers Society of Canada.

Johnson, Katherine passed away peacefully at the Comox Valley Seniors Village on September 15, 2015. She was predeceased by Husband Arthur Johnson in 2003, and by parents Jacob and Sara (nee Enns) Martens. Her siblings; Sister Erna (George deceased) Thiessen, Brothers Henry (deceased) and wife Anne still alive, Jake (Sarah) and John (Susan), Brother-in-law Roy Johnson (Minnie) and one Daughter Verna (Wayne) Llemky. The light of her life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; grandson, Brad McEwen whom she looked after every summer during his growing up years. Several other special grandchildren and great grandchildren. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews who we were very close to in our younger years. Kay was born in Graysville, Manitoba. The family resided there until she was about 15 when they moved to the beautiful Fraser Valley. The family struggled and worked very hard in the depression and they all became quite successful because they are all hard working, caring and generous folks. Mom graduated from MEI in Abbotsford. She then took her nursing degree at Royal Columbian Hospital and graduated in 1951. She took on her first job in Cranbrook and met and married Art there. Mom worked in many towns in British Columbia, mostly in the OR and ER until she retired at 65. She took a brief hiatus from nursing to own a florist shop in Revelstoke where there was only shift work in the hospital and she could not adjust to that so dad bought her a business. She kept a very strong connection with her nursing classmates for most of her life. Mom spent her whole life helping others. After she retired, she immediately started volunteering for Hospice on the North Shore of Shuswap Lake where there were no doctors. In 1996, mom and dad moved to Comox to be closer to us. As soon as she got here, she volunteered at the Filberg Lodge. Mom also looked after my dad for 10 years of ill health and when he passed away in 2003, she moved to live next to St. Josephs General Hospital. She fed the residents every day at lunch and dinner for several years. She was enjoying life to the fullest with walking, knitting, taking in plays with friends and helping in the hospital. So sadly, that fun time of her life was very short. She was run over by a car when she was in a crosswalk and was never able to live independently again. After long months of rehab, mom lived in Berwick for several years. When she was needing more help, she moved over to the Comox Valley Seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Village. In both residences, the staff and other residents became like a family to mom and to her daughter as well. Kayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the residents and staff in both buildings she lived for their caring and sharing. Mom had her own family â&#x20AC;&#x153;care giverâ&#x20AC;? at CVSV that was the epitome of perfection at her profession. Mom fought through many serious illnesses and accidents in her life and never complained but she finally just got tired of being so tough. Two very special ladies helped her through this phase, taking her for drives and walks and ice cream. They gave mom many wonderful hours of enjoyment. She was very fortunate to have Eda and Anne as friends. Kay did not like to be in the limelight or have any fanfare for her. Therefore, the family will respect her wishes that there be no service. She will be cremated and her ashes will join her husband and other family members. Donations to the charity of your choice in her name would be greatly appreciated.

REVIEW

Grizzlies lose two straight I'm happy with the way we played tonight. I'm not happy with the result but I'm happy with the efforts we had ~ Coach Ryan Parent ALEX COOPER

alex.cooper@revelstokereview.com The Revelstoke Grizzlies will be looking to get back above .500 when they head out on a tough three-game road trip to the East Kootenays this weekend. "We'll prepare no different than any other week," said coach Ryan Parent. "We've been OK on the road so far, so our chances are good out there." Revelstoke lost twice last weekend, falling 4-2 to the North Okanagan Knights in Armstrong on Friday, then dropping their home opener 4-3 to the Kimberely Dynamiters on Saturday. On Friday, the Knights jumped out to the early lead with a goal from Austin Fournier at 12:40 of the first. Ryan Pereverzoff ties things for the Grizzlies, but the Knights got the lead back before the period was done. Kyle Berry tied the game up for Revelstoke just past the midway point of the second, but goals from Ryan Moon and Trent Redschlag put North Okanagan up for good before the period was over. The third period was scoreless and the game ended 4-2. Keyon Bittner started for Revelstoke but was replaced by Michael Lenko after giving up three goals on 11 shots. "I don't think we brought our A-game," said Parent. "We might have deserved a closer fate than what the score reflected. It doesn't matter. We didn't play the right way the whole game." On Saturday, Revelstoke hosted the defending KIJHL champion Kimberley Dynamiters in front of 250 fans at the team's home opener. Once again, Revelstoke found themselves giving up the first goal, with Eric Buckley scoring for the Dynamiters on a 5-on-3 power play 6:34 into the game The Grizzlies didn't trail for long, with Berry tying the game seven minutes later with a beautiful

individual effort, scoring from his backhand while falling to the ice. Goalie Lenko got an assist on the play. "Kyle's turned up his game and he's shooting the puck," said Parent. "He's more of a threat than when he got here because he's learning how to play the right way." The second period was a repeat of the first, with Kimberley getting a goal seven minutes in, only for Revelstoke to tie it up on the power play. This time, it was Kaden Black scoring for Revelstoke. Austyn Moser responded for Kimberley 90 seconds later to give his team the lead heading into the third. In the final period, Jason Richter added to the Dynamiters' lead, scoring 5:40 into the frame. Berry responded not long after with his second of the game, but that was all she wrote for the Grizzlies, who were unable to even things up before the final horn went. "They have a skilled group of guys," said Parent of the Dynamiters. "I think we have good skill, I think it's coming together and I think we're very close to playing very good hockey." This weekend the Grizzlies hit the road for games against the Dynamiters, Fernie Ghostriders and Creston Valley Thundercats on Friday, Saturday and Sunday respectively. It will be a tough weekend for Revelstoke, with their three opponents sporting a combined 12-30-3 record so far this season. The Grizzlies record sits at two wins and three losses. "You'd always like to be one better," said Parent. "I'm happy with the way we played tonight. I'm not happy with the result but I'm happy with the efforts we had and the structure we had. I like that and that speaks of good things." The Grizzlies aren't back at home until Saturday, Oct. 10, when they host the Osoyoos Coyotes.
