The service is available to transport all seniors and handicapped or disabled residents who have no suitable form of transportation. The bus will take them to their doctors appointments, the medical centre, dentist, pharmacy, grocery shopping, or any other social or health related needs.

Many of the clients do not drive, especially during the winter months or they are unable to drive 250-679-8888 due to a medical 305 Brooke Dr, Chase BC treatment.

Chase Community Services Van This major endeavour is now known as "partners in service". They are now fundraising and have approached numerous service clubs, businesses and financial institutions, seeking donations toward the initial cost and operations of the new vehicle. To date the project "partners in service" has been pleasantly surprised with the support and generosity shown towards their goal. One of the first supporters was the general manager and the principals of the Kamloops Ram Dodge - Jeep Dealership, who announced they would offer up to $5000 towards the purchase of a new 7 seater van. Gerry Tilley, Director of Transport and Vice President of the Society, reports that he and the directors will
soon publish and recognize all the donors. To date, the society has received financial commitments of $500, $1000, $5000 and a generous $15,000 donation form the Chase and District Health Services Foundation, and are very appreciative of all of current supporters. Should you, as a business owner or a private individual wish to make a personal donation towards this important cause, kindly contact society representatives. Blaine Covington, President at 250-679-4424 or email covingtonblaine@gmail.com or Gerry Tilley, Director or Transport 250-679-8613 or email gdtilley@telus.net Tax receipts will be issued.

Venues for Influenza Vaccination
Halloween Items in Store!
By Chase Healthcare Team
Flu season is upon us again. The influenza vaccine helps prevent infection and serious illness - keeps you out of the hospital - from different strains of Influenza A and Influenza B. This year, the influenza vaccine is available free of charge and recommended to anyone 6 months of age and older. Flu vaccines are strongly recommended for people at higher risk of hospitalization and death from the flu virus as well as people who are in close contact with those vulnerable individuals. This group includes: - People aged 65 and older - People of any age who are residents of long term care facilities - People of any age who have chronic health conditions such as diabetes, cancer, asthma, COPD, kidney disease, liver disease, anemia, heart issues - People who are overweight (BMI > 40) - Healthy children aged 6 months to 5 years old - Pregnant woman at any stage of pregnancy - Indigenous people - All health care workers - Visitors to any health care facility - Household contacts or child care providers for children aged 6 months to 5 years - First responders - Corrections workers Flu shots are available at a few different places in Chase and the surrounding areas. We will once again hold a drop in drivethru influenza vaccination clinic in the Chase Curling Rink parking lot. This will
occur on Saturday, November 6, 2021 from 9AM - 2PM. Last year, with help from many different types of healthcare workers and volunteers, we were able to provide around 500 people with their flu shot. More details on this event will be available in the Sunflower next week. PharmaChoice in Chase and Scotch Creek also have flu vaccines available. To book an appointment at the Chase branch, please call 250-679-8611. For vaccination at the Scotch Creek location, please call 250-955-0601. Flu vaccines are also being offered through Public Health at the Chase Health Centre. Public Health will provide vaccinations for families with children 12 years old and under. The traditional intramuscular injection and the intranasal spray will be available. Public Health will also provide vaccinations for adults who are immunocompromised. Please call 250-679-1393 to book an appointment. For residents of Parkside Assisted Living, the Public Health Nurse will be visiting to administer the flu vaccine. If you have a family physician at the Chase Medical Clinic, flu shots will be available there with a booked appointment after November 6th. The flu shot does not offer any protection against COVID-19, nor does the COVID vaccine offer any protection against the flu. COVID vaccinations are only available through dedicated COVID19 vaccination clinics and can be booked by calling 1-833-838-2323 or visiting getvaccinated.gov.bc.ca

RCMP REPORT submitted by Chase RCMP
STRANGER ASSAULT On October 14th, 2021, at approximately 8:00 pm, Chase RCMP received a report of an assault which had occurred approximately 30 minutes earlier in Chase. The victim was a youth. She told Police that she was walking from the skate park to Alymer Road on the trail through the trees. She was suddenly tripped by something and fell to the ground. A male came out of the bushes and got on top of her. He physically restrained her with one hand and pulled at her pants with his other hand. She struggled to get away, hitting him multiple times in the face with the heel of her hand. She was able escape and ran. The male followed her and tried to grab her several more times before she finally got away. She described the male as tall and thin; dressed all in black with a black hoody; and sported a black ball cap. His face was covered by a black mask with a white skull on it. Police conducted extensive patrols of the park, the trails and the surrounding area throughout the night. Police canvassed the neighbourhood speaking with several people who were in the area and checked with local businesses, but no one recalled seeing or hearing anything out of the ordinary. As a precaution, local schools were notified of the incident so that staff could discuss safety precautions with their students. The investigation is continuing. TWO VEHICLE COLLISION On October 10th, 2021, at 5:46 pm, Chase RCMP were requested to ‘be on the lookout’ for a blue Ford F150. Police received multiple reports of a driver speeding excessively and consistently driving recklessly. The vehicle was last seen on the Trans-Canada Highway near Lafarge exit, travelling eastbound. All Chase members responded immediately to intercept and stop the vehicle as quickly as possible. While Police were looking for the vehicle, they were flagged down by another motorist who said
a serious collision had just occurred further up the road. Police arrived at the collision within minutes and observed a blue Ford F150 down an embankment, upside down. The driver was still in the vehicle with what appeared to be serious injuries. She was assisted by Police and Good Samaritans until Ambulances arrived. Chase Fire Rescue was required to assist with her extraction. The three occupants of a second vehicle, a grey Silverado, suffered minor injuries in the collision. They were also assisted by passersby until paramedics arrived. The highway was closed to allow for a landing zone for the Air Ambulance. An investigation by Police determined that the blue F150 crossed the centre line on a curve and struck the side of the oncoming grey Silverado. The driver of the grey Silverado swerved, likely preventing a head-on collision. Alcohol is believed to be a factor in this collision. The matter is still under investigation. ERRATIC DRIVER On October 3rd, 2021, at 3:59 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a possible impaired driver travelling eastbound on the Trans Canada Highway toward Chase. The complainant reported that a red Dodge pickup was all over the road. The driver was red in the face and slumped over the steering wheel. A second complainant reported that the vehicle was passing on double solids and speeding in a construction zone. Police responded immediately and stopped the vehicle just outside Chase. The driver had glassy eyes, slurred speech and had trouble following direction. Based on his physical symptoms and his driving behaviour, Police suspected his ability to drive was impaired by alcohol. The driver, a 32 year old male from Chase, refused to provide a sample of his breath into an alcohol screening device. The penalty for refusing to provide a breath sample is equivalent to providing a breath sample that results in a ‘Fail’. The driver was therefore prohibited from driving for 90 days and the vehicle impounded for 30 days.

CHECK WELLBEING On October 5th, 2021, at 3:39 pm, Chase RCMP were advised of a possible 1162 Shuswap Avenue abduction. Kamloops RCMP received a report that a female passenger tried to exit a blue Kia while it was stopped at an intersection in Kamloops. The driver pulled the passenger back into the vehicle and departed eastbound on the TransCanada Highway. Chase RCMP located the vehicle on the highway near Chase and conducted a traffic stop. The driver and passenger were a mother and an adult daughter. Together, they explained that the mother was transporting the daughter to a treatment facility. At one point, the daughter panicked and tried to jump out of the vehicle. Police confirmed that the daughter was in the vehicle by choice. Both parties were calm and continued on their travels.

BREAK AND ENTER On October 5th, 2021, Chase RCMP were advised of a residential break and enter and theft in Pritchard. The complainant had been out of town for several days. Upon his return, he discovered that someone had been in his house and some things were missing. Investigation determined that the point of entry was an unlocked window. Missing items included paperwork, power tools, jewelry and his car. A forensic examination was conducted of the residence and evidence was collected. The following day, a neighbour spotted the car parked in the woods near Silver Beach Lane. The car was recovered by Police and examined for further evidence. SCARED EACH OTHER On October 12th, 2021 at 1:19 am, Chase RCMP were advised of suspicious persons on Squilax Anglemont Road near Lee Creek. The complainant reported that two males in hoodies and masks were standing on the side of the road, shinning flashlights into vehicles that drove past. Police attended and eventually located a young couple huddled in an outhouse, trying to keep warm. They explained that their ride bailed, leaving them stranded and cold. They told Police that they were trying to catch a ride but were quite unnerved by a vehicle that drove past them slowly several times. This turned out to be the complainant.

Obituary
Aileen Theresa (Fraser, Hardy) Morneau
September 29, 1930 - September 27, 2021 Aileen passed away peacefully on the morning of September 27, 2021 just 2-days shy of her 91st birthday. Aileen was born in Kamloops on September 29, 1930, the only child of Jane and Bill Fraser to be born in a hospital. Jane and Bill Fraser had moved to Chase in 1928 with their 6 other children. Aileen spent most of her 91 years living in Chase; it was her home. She couldn't imagine how anyone could leave Chase or why they wouldn't come home to Chase to live. Aileen had an amazing memory of who lived where, in which house, where all they had moved to, and what all had transpired. Aileen has left behind to miss her dearly, her daughter Sylvia (Paul), her son Chris and son-in-law Barry. She was Gramma to Tammy (Chad), Theresa (Kevin), Micheal (Sara), Rachel (Dave); Brent (Melissa), Adam, David (Carla) Annabelle and Emma. Aileen was Great Gramma to Bailey (James), Paige, Erik, Carly, Tori, Jordan, Kayden, Haliya, Claire, Soren, Daisy, Lilly, Callum, Carter, Alice, Barrett, Magnus and Selina. Aileen was so proud and happy to have known her Great Great Great granddaughter Emilia. Aileen had 4 children, 10 grandchildren, 18 great grandchildren and 1 great, great granddaughter. Five generations of women! Aileen has also left behind her dearest sister, Alice MacDougall, numerous nieces and nephews - too many to count – and many dear friends, both young and old. Aileen was predeceased by her husband Adrian, her daughter Cathy, her son Patrick and her granddaughter Caila. She was predeceased by her parents Bill and Jane Fraser; brothers Bob, Don and Joe, her sisters Anne and Lib. Aileen lived her life independently, in her own home till the end and was still driving her car around Chase. Everyone who ever met her has a story to tell.
