Chase Sunflower - November 11, 2022

Page 1

On Saturday Nov 5, the Heat Hockey guys ran a homemade addition of the Amazing Race. With the support of local businesses and great volunteers the guys had to work their way through 18 different activities in 18 different locations in and around town.

It started at noon at the Heat dressing room; 12 teams of 2 headed out to 12 different locations. The tasks required were varied. Some were physical challenges, and some silly and fun. Each time they completed an activity they would receive a clue to the next challenge location.

Breanne at the Chase Museum had the

guys scavenger hunting the museum for historic artifacts and info. At the Chase Library the guys were required to find the right book that had their race flag on it. At Eye Candy, the guys had to find a flag marked candy bag, then guzzle a super sour slurpee. Adrenaline Auto, was a stop where they had to dig through a box of keys until they found the right one to open a trunk of a car. At the dog park, they had a detour; they could eat carbs (dry krispies) or search through coins to find their flag. Then off to Village Lanes fun centre to bowl a game.

Karli Yarish of Aspire Fitness put them through a gruelling challenge of tire flips and block carries. Ali McGill from One Trick Pony had the guys learning to braid hair, and surprisingly they were great at it. James was stationed at the Chase Falls for another detour. The guys could either smoosh race or hike to the falls in search of their hidden flags. Pete Murray’s Corn Maze was a challenge as they have to look through the corn in search of corn (candy corn). Dave and Gerry at the curling rink had the guys dressing up, and curling like girls. Dianne had an obstacle course at Memorial Park. At the Chase Laundry, the guys had to do a word scramble with laundry words. Janet & Lance Beatty’s hay barn was an archery shooting range.

Darryl, Will, and Helen of Chase Fish & Game had the guys up at the gun range learning to trap shoot. (All time Favourite

the guys said). Chase Fire and Rescue had the guys doing fire training exercises. Village Fitness was another exercise challenge. Welton storage had the guys doing human wheelbarrows, carrying hay and apples over a span of distance.

The duration of the race lasted approximately 3 1/2 hours.

The finish line was their own dressing room. The winning 1st place team was Jarod Sigouin (only a driver as injured) Ryan Keylor, Brian Fraser.

2nd place went to Malachi Franklin, and Austin Banting.

3rd place went to Mikkel Hrechka and Kohen Kallin.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

I would like to thank the logging truck driver (possibly a Mattey’s employee?) who stayed at a safe and respectful distance from me on Monday, November 7th, when I was returning home to Chase from Kamloops on a harrowing winter drive. You were behind me from Valleyview to the Chase turn off, even when speeds were as slow as 60 km per hour, you still kept your distance and made me feel safe. Thank you for your consideration! I wish all truck drivers were as professional as you were/are. Regards, Gail Logan

The Shuswap Country - A book review

The Shuswap Country is a “travelogue of observations” that is “bursting with crisp, clear photographs snapped by the author”, Mark Forsythe remarked in his Foreword. The collections of circa 1930’s and 40’s photos were discovered by “happenchance”, said Jim Cooperman, Editor of the publication. After an unexpected series of events explained in his introduction, Cooperman searched “Shuswap” in the B.C. Regional Digitalized History database and the “photos that appeared belonged to two albums by Erskine Burnett…”

Further investigation would ensue, and as Cooperman found more of Burnett’s photos and writing, a book project began to emerge.

At 19 years old, Ebenezer Erskine Burnett, the son of a Scottish Laird, immigrated to Canada in 1897 after attending agricultural school in Aberdeen, Scotland. Erskine’s eldest brother John would be the beneficiary of their father’s Kemnay House Estate property holdings, and the family was purported to be otherwise “cash poor.” Therefore, Burnett’s prospects to apply his education and till land he owned were, in all likelihood, even more remote than the shores of another continent: a common narrative that set many to sail.

Burnett would go on to homestead in Coldstream, BC during the year 1908, and become well known from Oliver to Revelstoke, for peddling fruit out of his truck that he grew in his orchard. From the scant formal documentation of his life, evidence shows that Burnett married in 1921; a son and daughter became the fruits of this union, on a family tree that has continued to grow.

Following Burnett’s Preface, the reader is greeted with his hand drawn map of what he considered to be the Shuswap. Mere pencil lines on the map spring to life with each page turned and image revealed, as we follow Burnett’s course through such places as verdant forests to mine sites, over precarious wooden bridges, atop mountain meadows, and

down main streets of towns such as Chase or Falkland.

Topographical details absent on his map erupt from the paper’s flat surface with each passage he writes. Employing a keen eye, dry sense of humor, and economy of word, Burnett pens the contours of his surroundings as readily as the lives of people he encounters along the way. Adding finer details as seen fit, that may otherwise elude the lens of his camera.

“I still read it and a smile comes to my face” said Cooperman, in reference to Burnett’s writing. When asked to highlight a section of the book, Cooperman’s immediate response was “Burnett’s camping trip in the Monashee Mountains with a famous pioneer.”

The layout and design of The Shuswap Country by Otto Pfannschmidt is superb – for both aesthetic and practical reasons. Each of twelve chapters is dedicated to one of Burnett’s journeys, titled by the place of departure and destination. Allowing the reader to choose their desired route to explore, or to turn it into a literary expedition.

Either way, The Shuswap Country is “an intriguing text about an era that has not been well documented to date” states Cooperman. Adding that it will be “a benefit to everyone who lives here.” Burnett’s penchant for writing and photography, along with a love of the wilderness and travel has culminated, with a magnitude of efforts on behalf of many who contributed to the project, into a resource that promotes awareness about the history and geography of the greater Shuswap Region, from which to learn about and reflect upon.

For starters you actually can’t get unwrangled but it is possible to lose to Wranglers. Doing it after beating the KIJHL league leading Revelstoke Grizzlies twice makes it hard to fathom on the best of days. Just when we assumed they had found the recipe for success they found a way to deliver badly burnt toast.

Let’s begin with the good news, Chase met up for the 2nd time in a week with Revelstoke, this time at the Art Holding Memorial Arena on Tuesday the 1st of November. The crowd of 140 ardent fans was small, however the game was the most entertaining 60 plus minutes this season. Ryan Keylor scored his 3rd of the season from Parker Garries and Cale Nahorney and the 1st period ended 1-0 Heat. In the 2nd the visitors on the man advantage evened the contest. In the 3rd the always hard working Aidan Brown from Trevor Kennedy and Mikkel Hrechka scored on a powerplay. A little

over 3 minutes later the Grizzlies got that one back. It was time for 3 on 3 overtime for 5 minutes and the two goalies stood tall. Always an interesting way to finish off a game it was now time for a nail biting shootout. Brown was up first and with a lot of razzle dazzle scored, Revelstoke was denied by Roderic May, Kennedy scored followed by a Grizzly tally. Jalen Davidson was then stymied and May “Day” made everyone’s day by doing what he does so well, denying a goal. The Heat 3-2 winners versus the Grizzlies. Brown was all over the scoresheet in this contest earning star accolades.

Now to the disturbing, Friday night at the local ice barn versus Division rivals the 100 Mile House Wranglers. The Heat riding a 4 game win streak and an opportunity to increase distance in the standings versus the evening’s foe, don’t. That’s right they don’t seize opportunity, they play nice guys and lose, not by much but overall a lack of

concerted effort. Wranglers end the 1st 2-0. Captain Kennedy in the 2nd starts digging his team out with a goal assisted by Hrechka and Davidson. 100 Mile House pushes Chase back in the ditch with a pair. Garrett Martin from Braeden Huth and Carter Spring makes it 4-2 after 40 minutes. In the 3rd Spring from Nahorney gets the 3rd Heat counter to make it close. The Heat fire 22 shots in the 3rd at the Wrangler net in a futile effort as Ryder Gregga stymies all but one to star versus the Heat. Too little too late versus a hot goalie.

Next up, another Tuesday night contest this time in Kamloops versus the Storm on the 8th. Two days later the Kelowna Chiefs come to town on the 10th at 7:00 pm at the Art Holding Memorial Arena. Its not until the 19th that the next home contest happens so put on your long john’s, your favourite touque and get out to Thursday’s hockey game.

Remembering—and Soldiering On

When the Berlin Wall came down, there were some who hoped that war might become out of fashion. It was not to be.

Lester B. Pearson—Canadian Prime Minister, Diplomat and Nobel Peace Prize winner—noted it succinctly, although not in presentday acceptable parlance, when he wrote in 1964 “The grim fact is that we prepare for war like precocious giants and for peace like retarded pygmies.”

Years later in 1988, William Bunge, geographer and critic of nuclearism, voiced the same opinion, penning “The planet is large enough for peace, but too small for war.”

Nonetheless, it behooves all of us to recognize those who courageously defend freedom, travelling overseas to war-torn countries in support of troops there, often remaining as peacekeepers for years— also to understand and comfort veterans who have been irrevocably changed, as well as to grieve and remember those who return home draped in our flag, something dreaded by their loved ones, gone forever, with honour, with bravery, but gone nonetheless.

In many communities across Canada, November 8th marks National Aboriginal Veterans Day, established in 1994, honouring First Nations, Inuit, and Métis armed services personnel who, until then, had not been recognized on Remembrance Day. Over 12,000 aboriginals from our country volunteered in all three wars, many of whom lost their lives during those conflicts. In addition to having to give up their First Nations status, this country’s First Peoples were exempt from conscription because they were not considered citizens of Canada. Nonetheless, along with Métis. Inuit, and non-status members, thousands of First Nations voluntarily enlisted. To this

day, Indigenous First Peoples continue to serve in Canadian Armed Forces.

And on November 11th, Canadians gather at cenotaphs, memorial statues, and legions to acknowledge the brave Canadians who have gone to the frontlines of war in the name of justice and peace, to remember those who lost their lives in that cause, and to honour the men and women who serve today—ready to defend our borders, to take up arms and assist other nations, to fight steadfastly in the name of rightfulness and legitimacy.

While we are proud of our courageous sons and daughters overseas in embattled countries, are we also not disheartened that they have to be there? That war continues? Possibly an antidote to the challenge of wars being waged is found in joining local veterans, friends and neighbours on November 11th in a demonstration of appreciation of our veterans and those serving today.

Thank you, Indigenous and nonIndigenous vets. We are so lucky, so blessed to have been and to be protected by such dedicated men and women.

Perhaps one day globally, countries will function under a Proclamation of Peace rather than with a Department of Defence. Hope springs eternal.

For Those who are gone & Those who are still serving Lest We Forget
