Skmana History...
Continued from last week
By Estelle Noakes and members of Skmana Cross Country Ski Club
Skmana is a delightful skiing destination. The 18 km of groomed trails wind around the lakes and through forest and meadows along old logging roads. The trails range from beginner to advanced. In addition there is myriad of possibilities for those who wish to ski on ungroomed pathways. Trails for snowshoeing are offered as well and with the help of the Shuswap Trail Alliance, substantially more snowshoes trails were opened for the season of 2011-2012 with more opening in following years. To reflect the growing enthusiasm for snowshoeing, the club has changed its name to Skmana Cross Country Ski and Snowshoe Club. Tobogganing hills are near the parking lot and a small one is near the cabin. The Skmana lakes area is co-managed between Recreation Sites and Trails BC and Skmana Cross Country Ski Club. A Forest Recreation Site is on West Skmana Lake with picnic tables and toilets. The info center for the club is G-Force in Chase. What has sustained Skmana Ski Club for more than 30 years has been the many volunteers who have given so much of their time and energy. They are too numerous
to mention but those who have been exceptional, in addition to those mentioned earlier, are Jim McLellan, Cathy Hopland, John Thornbury, George Carlin, Ken Sparrow, Ron Fairhurst, Ken Shaw, Darcy and Patricia Simpson and Brian David. The one person who has been a member since Skmana Ski Club’s inception, supported the club in all its endeavours and continues to do so is Eileen Boscher. George Carlin, who did so much for the club and supported it for many years, passed away in 2015. The club’s membership has been around 100 but many other people ski and snowshoe by donation. Members come from the wide surrounding area of Chase, Adams Lake, Pritchard, North Shuswap and Sorrento with many guests from further afield. Skmana is a small and homey club. Christmas is celebrated with a potluck complete with mulled wine and a live candle tree to sing carols beside. Valentines day features a chile potluck, mushy valentine cards and an evening ski. A magical area for winter and summer recreation, just a bit off the beaten track, a place of solitude and peace. Come join us.
Taking care of your kidneys
With March being Kidney Month, the World Kidney Day website has “8 Golden Rules” for kidney health: #1 Keep fit and active - Keeping fit helps to reduce your blood pressure and therefore reduces the risk of Chronic Kidney Disease. #2 Keep regular control of your blood sugar level- About half of people who have diabetes develop kidney damage, so it is important for people with diabetes to have regular tests to check their kidney functions. #3 Monitor your blood pressure- Although many people may be aware that high blood pressure can lead to a stroke or heart attack, few know that it is also the most common cause of kidney damage. #4 Eat healthy and keep your weight in check - This can help prevent diabetes, heart
disease and other conditions associated with Chronic Kidney Disease. #5 Reduce your salt intake. #6 Consume plenty of fluid to help the kidneys clear sodium, urea and toxins from the body. #7 Do not smoke- Smoking slows the flow of blood to the kidneys. When less blood reaches the kidneys, it impairs their ability to function properly. #8 Do not take over-the-counter pills on a regular basis. Common drugs such non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen are known to cause kidney damage and disease if taken regularly (Such medications probably do not pose significant danger if your kidneys are relatively healthy and you use them for emergencies only)

Doctor Recruitment
Interior Health Authority (IHA) has determined that Chase should have a compliment of 4.0 positions for Doctors. The Chase Medical Clinic is under the care of Dr. C. Barnard, Dr. C. Ferguson and Dr. A. Redel. All 3 doctors have full practices. There is more demand for medical services than can be met by our 3 physicians and currently there is a wait list. The Chase Clinic has formed a task force designed specifically to recruit a fourth doctor for the practice. Our Doctor Recruitment Team consists of 6 people with degree of knowledge of our past medical and community history, plus a member of Village Council. We believe it is possible to successfully recruit a suitable Doctor within 2016. In our efforts to do so, we have joined with IHA to post this vacancy to reach as broad a spectrum of candidates as possible. The issue of a Doctor shortage affects everyone in our area.
