Read the success story of Kerrisdale couple Eric Hogan and Tara Hungerford, the creators of Scout the mouse and the award -winning show Scout & The Gumboot Kids.

Eric and Tara’s children appear as our cover models and also happen to be two of the Gumboot Kids.

Welcome to the early spring issue of Kerrisdale Insider!

In 2017 Kerrisdale welcomed many new businesses: Honolulu Coffee, Engel & Volkers, Fox and Unicorn Arts, Miniso, Mumuso, Mango Mama, 41 Noodle and Rice Pothouse, Hair by Maxim, Highroads Medical Clinic, Chatime, Jiu Jiang Japanese Restaurant, Luscious Nail Lounge, Academy of Modern Art, Wellspring Bowen Therapy, Nicola Adam Floral, Ridgepoint Wellness, Dear & Fro Desserts, Chin Lan, New Link College, West Coast Imaging and more.

All signs are pointing to spring; the days are getting noticeably longer, spring flowers are popping up and soon cherry trees will be blooming. Kids are looking forward to an extra long spring break as Easter falls at the end of March, and after a very wet winter, we are all looking forward to using our umbrellas a little less frequently!

Gung Hay Fat Choy! Chinese New Year commences on February 16 and welcomes in the Year of the Dog. Soon Kerrisdale Arena’s ice will be removed and will make way for the semi-annual Kerrisdale Antiques Fair (April 7 & 8) followed by the return of Kerrisdale Play Palace (a fun-filled indoor playground). The KBA is busy planning Kerrisdale Carnival Days for April 27 and 28.

Scout & The Gumboot Kids: A Home Grown Mindful Mouse Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos submitted We live in a world surrounded by technology and as it is filters down to younger children it comes with consequences; child obesity is rising, social interaction is suffering and anxiety is increasing.

But it’s not all gloom and doom.

Enter Scout, an eight-inch powerhouse of a mouse, with his own television show called Scout & The Gumboot Kids. This loveable little fella is onto something big; he is inspiring a return to mindfulness as he encourages children and their parents to go outdoors and explore the world around them.

Scout connects the Gumboot Kids (a group of real-life diverse Canadian children) to nature through mysteries, which involve clues, and inspires creative, playful and meaningful ways of engaging with the natural world.

The award-winning preschool series uses mindfulness practice as a means of fostering curiosity and a sense of connection with nature.

In 2011 Eric and Tara set out to make the kind of TV show they wanted their children to watch.

Scout & The Gumboot Kids can be viewed on CBC TV, YouTube and the CBC Kids’ website.

The short five-minute episodes mix the magic of traditional stop motion animation – which is how Scout comes to life – with CGI animation and live action. The visual style and bursts of lively original music contribute to the joyfulness, curiosity and delight that infuse this series.

When the seasoned filmmakers became parents they redirected their company’s (Imagine Create Media) creative efforts from documentary and advertising to family entertainment. They approached CBC with a pilot episode that was instantly embraced.

Their dream became reality in 2015 when Scout & The Gumboot Kids premiered on CBC Kids.

It is a labour intensive process – the stop motion component of the show can take eight to ten hours to create only fifteen seconds of animation. In addition to filming the outdoor segments, combined with casting, wardrobe, set decorating, scripting and waiting for special guests (for example, will a ladybug or snail show up for its cameo appearance?) makes it a time consuming but rewarding process.

Eric says, “We asked ourselves, what would help us as parents in a time of media saturation? We put all of the ingredients together including mindfulness, nature connection and good quality music. The bottom line is it’s entertainment. It’s really resonating with families and we’re excited about that.”

Scout & The Gumboot Kids is the creation of filmmakers Eric Hogan and Tara Hungerford.

These creative partners also happen to be husband and wife.

“We believe in the transformational power of storytelling, aesthetics and entertainment to educate the heart and create a better world.” Eric Hogan While the demographic is preschoolers the program has a much broader appeal. Older children enjoy tuning in, as the Gumboot Kids themselves are a range of ages. In fact, Eric and Tara’s son and daughter are two of the Gumboot Kids and they thoroughly enjoy being part of their mom and dad’s project.

Tara says, “The show has become infused into their lives.”

the Philippines and now in the U.S. on Comcast’s Kidstream and through Amazon.com.

Scout & The Gumboot Kids airs on CBC in Canada, on ABC Australia, in South Korea,

In addition, Scout & The Gumboot Kids won both the 2016 and 2017 Golden Sheaf Awards for Best Children’s and Youth Production; it was nominated for six Leo Awards in 2016, winning for Best Screenwriting and Best Production Design in a Youth or Children Program. In 2017 it was nominated for seven more Leo Awards, winning five including Best Children’s Program. It was also nominated for a 2017 Canadian Screen Award for Best Pre-School Series.

February 15 - April 15, 2018

Scout has become a celebrity in his own right.

The mascot travels across the country and makes appearances; he can also be spotted at local events such as Kerrisdale Days and Kerrisdale Idol.

Gumboot Kids. This series of 40 music interstitials features Jessie Farrell who is a Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) award-winning musician. She will perform alongside Scout, Daisy and the Gumboot Kids. The show is slated to air this winter.

Scout’s roots are firmly planted in this neck of the woods. Tara and Eric live nearby and Tara grew up in Kerrisdale. They have fond memories of being Kerrisdale Idol judges together for a number of years along with Tara’s sister Jessie Farrell who is the show’s songwriter and performer.

This spring the Scout and Daisy mascots are scheduled to go on a live music tour with Jessie, and next year they will go on a crosscountry tour.

Coming soon! If you can’t get enough of Scout you will be pleased to learn that CBC TV has approved season three of Scout & The Gumboot Kids, and on top of that, this spring his best friend Daisy will be launching her own series Daisy & The Gumboot Kids.

What are the highlights of working together?

Eric says, “We have built a business together and a household together. We are co-creators.

It’s a real gift.”

In each episode Daisy will lead the Gumboot Kids through the creation of a nature inspired craft. Tara says, “The journey is as important as the destination.” It may be as simple as rubbing leaves with a sheet of paper and crayons over top – the point is to spend time together creating. Twenty episodes are currently in production in addition to a digital game for web, iOS and Android.

Commenting on the joy this little mouse has brought their family, Tara remarks, “Watching our kids fall in love with nature is the best.

We live in the city but they have connected with nature in our backyard. Scout & The Gumboot Kids is a little show with a big heart.” www.gumbootkids.com

Luscious Nail Lounge: A Modern and Fresh Approach to Nail Care Story by Sarah Gordon Photos by Sandra Steier It is difficult to decide which is more charming, Luscious Nail Lounge’s attractive space or the charismatic owner Jin Lee who opened the business last year on St. Patrick’s Day.

The walls are painted an inviting and restful robin’s egg blue combined nicely with the high open ceiling which is painted grey. The décor is equally elegant with three white leather couches to accommodate customers seeking pedicures.

The first thing that may catch your attention when you enter the nail lounge is open space with room to move around. Jin points out both wheelchairs and baby strollers can easily be accommodated.

This is not a nail lounge with oversize vibrating chairs; instead your tootsies receive the royal treatment inside a sanitized metal foot bowl lined with plastic wrap. As you relax and enjoy a pedicure you can look out the large front windows and take in a quintessentially Kerrisdale view of Kerrisdale Arena.

Luscious Nail Lounge feels like a beautiful living room. Jin makes guests feel extremely comfortable with her welcoming and gentle manner.

You will also notice the absence of rows of manicure tables. Jin wanted to create a clean look and installed a nail bar where clients sit on bar stools for their manicures. A big screen television is mounted above to watch a show.

for two years. She says, and “It was hard to find a place to locate my style of service. A friend told me about this place and I was finally able to find a home for my nail lounge.

I chose this spot because of the atmosphere and the neighbourhood.”

She takes great pride in her work and has only five people including herself working at one time. Walk-ins are possible if Jin or her staff is available but she encourages customers to make an appointment.

“We offer quality service – it is what customers expect and deserve.” Jin Lee

Luscious Nail Lounge attracts a range of clients from children to seniors. The nail bar accepts group bookings, which have included bridal and birthday parties. Jin mentions, “There was a birthday party for mothers.

Everyone was busy because they had children so we had a surprise party for them at the salon in the evening.”

Originally from Seoul, South Korea, Jin moved to Canada in 2009. Prior to becoming a licensed nail technician she worked for twenty years as a dental hygienist.

Luscious Nail Lounge keeps on top of the latest colours and styles. Jin says, “The current trend is simple and luxurious.”

She finds the two careers share some similarities, primarily when it comes to hygiene. She says, “Even though a dental patient and a Luscious Nail Lounge customer is different, it is so wonderful and satisfying when I finish my job with my best effort.”

Jin guarantees all metal tools are thoroughly sanitized after each service with hospital grade disinfectants. Non-metal tools such as nail files, nail buffers, wood sticks, and other non-metal tools will be disposed of following a treatment – customers are also welcome to take them home.

Jin had a dream to open a nail shop and had been looking for a place in Metro Vancouver

“Our professional team focuses on creative artistry to give your nails an aesthetic, flawless makeover in the comfort of a relaxing atmosphere.”

With a smile she concludes, “If my customers are happy and satisfied I am happy as well. When they tell me I am the best nail technician I feel so proud.”

A.S.K. Friendship Centre: Back at Home in Kerrisdale Where It All Began Story by Sarah Gordon Photos by Sandra Steier circle. In late November 2017 it moved to the space formerly occupied by the Kerrisdale Legion across from the community centre.

A.S.K. Friendship Centre has recently returned to its Kerrisdale roots where the adult day centre run by A.S.K. Friendship Society got its start over forty years ago in a local church.

A.S.K. stands for Arbutus Shaughnessy Kerrisdale; the centre primarily serves seniors from these west side neighbourhoods in addition to Dunbar, Marpole and Oakridge.

In 2007 A.S.K. moved to George Pearson Centre in Marpole, which is currently slated for demolition. The Centre has now come full

The adult day centre is designed for seniors with chronic health challenges or who have difficulty meeting their own social needs.

Director of Development Miranda Haley has been employed with A.S.K. for eight years.

She is very familiar with the organization, as she has worked in various capacities. She and ten staff work with a maximum capacity of 25 seniors per day. In addition to the administrative and programming staff a full time cook and nurse round out the team.

Making a difference in people’s lives is rewarding for A.S.K.’s staff. In turn, clients have glowing words to say about the caring and attentive employees and they value the friendships made at the Centre.

Adult children and spouses are comforted knowing their loved ones receive professional and supported care. They frequently show their gratitude verbally and through thank you cards.

room.” For a small fee seniors can also see a podiatrist.

Having fun is one of the Centre’s basic values; they find ways to have fun and laugh each day.

Miranda points out, “Every year the Centre surveys caregivers for their feedback – we value their input.” They mention the difference A.S.K.’s services make both to their loved ones and to their own lives, as they are given the gift of some time to themselves.

The day begins with some clients arriving on their own, while others are dropped off by caregivers or aboard Translink’s HandyDART. After a light breakfast a round of trivia takes place followed by a variety of activities which may include anything from a scenic drive to Spanish Banks, Southlands or Queen

The nurse ensures medications, weight and blood pressure are monitored and any behavioural changes are noted. Regular fitness assessments measure strength, flexibility and strength. Miranda says, “We help keep seniors out of the emergency

enabling clients to live at home longer is very fulfilling. It’s also extremely rewarding to make a difference by offering seniors a safe place to socialize and be with their peers.”

Clients have input and can suggest programming that is of interest. Miranda mentions how much fun the group has going out for lunch locally.

A.S.K. Friendship Society receives funding from Vancouver Coastal Health Authority.

The remainder of the budget relies heavily on fundraising and community donations.

Remarkably, A.S.K. Friendship Centre’s daily fee is a mere $5; if HandyDART is required the cost is an additional $5 per day. The staff will happily arrange for subscriptions to use the bus service to alleviate this task.

The kitchen caters to a range of special diets to accommodate those who are diabetic, or require low sodium or soft foods.

A full balanced meal at lunch is provided and take home meals are available at a very low cost.

On behalf of the A.S.K. team Miranda would like to thank everyone who helped to make the move to Kerrisdale possible – from those who made donations to those who helped with the physical move. “Without your help A.S.K. would not be where we are today, enjoying our newly renovated home!” she says.

When asked what she finds most satisfying about her job Miranda replies, “Every day is different. Being able to help families and
