Cougarettes piece together an impressive soccer season

Each of the players, coaches and or-ganizers received a blue Leggo piece from coach Jay Gardner during the course of the 2014 girls soccer season.

The pieces alone are inconsequential, he explained, but when brought together with the other pieces the girls could shape the suc-

cess of the Cougarettes any way they wanted.Through dedication and perseverance, the

girls of the Nakusp Secondary Soccer team bat-tled their way through a demanding spring, ac-cumulating an 11 and 3 regular season record.

The Cougars prevailed on the tournament circuit with a second place finish in Cres-ton, a third place showing in Osoyoos and third place finish in their home tournament.

Coaches Rhonda Palmer and Jay Gardner

helped mould the team into a veritable power-house of synergism and tenacity that confidently rolled south to Grand Forks to fight for a provin-cial berth during the Kootenay Zone playoffs.

The tournament was a sudden death for-mat, where each game played would make or break the girls ambitions to advance to the provincial stage. Their first contest was a close

Did you know the name for the back part of your hand is the opisthenard? Not many are aware of the proper term for the back, or dorsal part of the human append-age, which essentially negates the saying “I know it like the back of my hand” and makes a liar out of most of us who have uttered that idiom.

Now that I’ve put you in a state of doubt (and you are back to reading after a quick look at your own hands) I pose the question, what do you

think you know about Nakusp?

Did you know that the cenotaph used to be located at the in-tersection of Broad-way and (the previ-ously named) Slocan street? Did you know that St. Mikes church was originally named St. John’s? Do you know about the sink-hole that ate the Na-kusp Kal Tire?

Milton Parent was a well-known local historian who te-naciously and cou-rageously fought to preserve Nakusp’s rich history for future generations. He per-sonally complied and organized thousands of photographs, vid-eos and documents in an effort to prevent Nakusp’s story from fading into the dark-ness of time.

After his passing, Milton’s quest for his-torical preservation has been continued on by the dedicated members and vol-unteers of the Arrow Lakes Historical So-ciety.

In 2013 Kyle Kusch was hired by the ALHS to assist with the scanning of over 10 thousand of Par-ent’s photos, and charged with the task of organizing the col-lection into catego-

ries by assigning each picture with a data-base number.

During Kyle’s monumental task of sifting through the extensive collection of photos, he came across an old laptop of Parent’s in the back of the archives. On it were three slideshow presentations labeled “Our Colored Past.”

The previously un-known slideshows of over 150 pictures and several home video segments document-ing Nakusp from 1940 to the 1980s were too good a find not to be shared, so the ALHS decided to showcase the collection to the community.

The ninety minute presentation com-menced with an in-troduction by Rose-mary Parent who informed the audi-ence that “we will not

be giving out copies without the correct information” citing the recent mistake of the B.C. archives who accidently labelled a picture of the S.S. Minto as a ship oper-ating on the Kootenay Lake.

Parent also in-formed the gathered group that there is a third showing of “Our Colored Past” sched-uled for June 27.

Kyle Kusch was then given the reigns of the presentation and acted as the guide for the journey down a clear and coloured memory lane. Kusch invited the group to participate in the experience by en-couraging audience members to share information or ques-tions as the slideshow carried on.

What ensued was an experience that

took those in atten-dance along a roller-coaster ride of nos-talgia. Explosions of excited chatter, as familiar images or scenes flashed across the screen, melted into humble and rev-erent moments of si-lent awe at the ability to conjure up a win-dow into the past.

“That was my first boyfriend!” shouted out one member of the audience as a fa-miliar face flashed onto the large flat screen T.V. being used to project the show.

Highlights in-cluded a number of pictures taken by the Spicer family, who Kusch tells us “hiked everywhere and cov-ered a lot of wilder-ness” as well as short amateur film footage of water skiing on the Arrow Lakes, the last run of the Minto in 1952, and the last run of the train in 1988.

Near the end of the slideshow, a sequence showing a small group of tugboat workers feeding a black bear caused the biggest stir, as many gasps of disbelief and anxious giggles at the trust-ing exchange of the men and the bear on screen could be heard rippling through the audience.

Community

Invest Kootenay.com

Laurie Page, representing the Nakusp and Area De-velopment Board (NADB) presented council with an opportunity to support the creation of a community profile on the website, In-vestKootenay.

As the name suggests, InvestKootenay is a profile based web service where communities can advertise local commercial, real es-tate, and business opportu-nities. The potential profile would encourage conversa-tion about how to advocate for local opportunities while presenting a unified front to attract investors.

Interested members of the public can access the website and view commu-nity profiles, but detailed in-vestment opportunities are only privy to those who are registered with the website. Invest Kootenay currently has over 900 investors reg-istered.

According to a recent Business Retention and Ex-pansion survey, Page noted that there is an anticipated 22 per cent business owner-ship change in Naksup over the next three years and “we don’t do much succes-sion planning in this town. In fact, some businesses are hoping to sell but they don’t know who to sell to and some business own-ers are thinking I’ll just shut my doors when I’m done. Which might work for them, but is not the best thing for our community.”

InvestKootenay requires a start up fee, which the NADB is prepared to pay,

but there would be an an-nual payment of $2500 to maintain the community profile on the web site. Page appealed to council for a commitment to partially fund the profile for five years; “anything less and I don’t think we would be giv-ing it a chance.”

Council voted unani-mously in favor of commit-ting $1250 for five years to support the InvestKootany proposal. Page will now ap-proach RDCK to fund an additional $1250, thereby covering the annual fee to maintain a Nakusp commu-nity profile.

Old Fire Hall

The Old Fire Hall Busi-ness Society has submitted a business plan that would see the unused fire hall trans-formed into a community hub and business location that would serve the people of Nakusp.

The submitted plan out-lines a building initiative that would seek to renovate the structure by replac-ing the wiring and plumb-ing as well as upgrade the building’s exterior. Once the building is brought up to code, the society has plans to allocate the space for a year round farmers mar-ket, a commercial kitchen, craft brewery/meadery and a space for the local Mirror Theatre to develop and host productions.

Linda Tynan, the act-ing Chief Administrative Officer, has been meeting with the societies president Rosemary Hughes and has reviewed the business plan.

Tynan commented that “for me, as the CAO, I am very supportive of the proj-

ect and feel that it’s very good for the community.” She also identifies that there are still some questions that need to be answered before the project moves any fur-ther.

Tynan suggests that a Memorandum of Under-standing be signed by coun-cil and issued to the sociaty, which would request clarifi-cation on how the building’s ongoing operational costs and any unforeseen capital costs would be handled by the society.

Once the MOU details have been sorted out, then the next step for the coun-cil and the society would be to sort out the legal terms of the lease and then the proj-ect can move ahead.

COA Report

Tynan also shared some good news in her COA re-port, stating that a Gas Tax funding agreement between Canada, B.C. and the Union of B.C. Municipalities has been renewed.

The agreement is in ac-cordance with Keeping Canada’s Economy and Jobs Growing Act and will see a ten year commitment of funding Nakusp with $113,000 for the next two years, $118,000 for eight years after.

According to the UBCM website, the funds are in-tended to “support the achievement of local priori-ties through an allocation based on population and a funding floor.”

In addition to the Gas Tax, the General Strategic Priority Fund (GSPF) will be accepting intakes for 2014. The GSPF is focused on large innovative projects

that are designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and is allocated based on an application process.

The scope has been broadened this year and will include considerations for proposals involving recre-ation facilities or basic local infrastructure.

Thursday, May 22 was the kick off of the Nakusp Recy-cling program; 9 blue plas-tic bags of recycling were picked up from curbside drops. Regular pick up is scheduled for every second Thursday from now on. The first pick up was intended to have a soft start and as community members be-come aware of the program it is hoped that the program will become viable and well used.

Blue bags can be pur-chased from any local mer-chants in Nakusp and if there are any questions the public is encouraged to visit the Village Office for more information.

Councilor Guy Duchaine asked if he could use a blue bin in place of the bags, but Tynan responded that the village has decided that blue bins will not be collected at this time.

Editorial

Have you ever wondered what a community forest is? No doubt you have heard the acronym NACFOR used in and around Nakusp as they have been involved in a variety of community based projects and activ-ities, but do you know who they are and what do they do?

Nakusp Community Forest (NAC-FOR) is a unique local company gov-erned by a board of directors who, through generated funds, works within their mandate to promote community stability, ensure forest sustainability and stimulate commu-nity involvement in local forest man-agement.

The company’s source of income is achieved through the harvest of an annual allowable cut of 20,000 cubic meters of tree species within their staked tenure.

NACFOR previously held a five year probationary license which was recently updated in 2011 by the Min-istry of Forests and Natural Resource Operations to a 25-year tenure li-cense for operating areas in Slewiskin (along MacDonald Creek) Fosthall, Galena Bay and along the Harlow, Kuskanax and Wensley Creeks.

The structure of NACFOR is such that the Village of Nakusp is the sole shareholder and owner of the com-pany which ensures that the gener-ated revenue is allocated to projects that fit within the company’s direc-tive.

NACFOR hosted their annual open house on May 28 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Selkirk Collage to showcase the programs that have been undertaken and to present the upcoming granting process planned for the fall of 2014.

Members of NACFOR Board of Directors and management group were on hand to promote the work-ing projects in the community forest and discuss their strategic goals and objectives.

Kathy Smith, president of the board of directors, stated that this was a unique opportunity for mem-bers of the community to meet with the directors and “talk in an open format about the past, present and future plans for NACFOR.”

The space at Selkirk Collage was packed full of displays describing the projects and initiatives the company is involved in. NACFOR is unique

in that the focus is on working in the interests of the only shareholder, which makes the company account-able to the feedback of the commu-nity members.

Smith showed a schematic cut plan for the Fostall area that has been re-drawn several times to avoid serious impact on the mushroom popula-tion that grows in the area. This sort of cooperation with local interests is a reflection of NACFOR’s commit-ment to community involvement in the harvesting plans and processes.

NAKFOR is also involved in sev-eral other initiatives including the expansion of the Jackrabbit Interpre-tive Trail as well as the production of brochures and signage to enhance the area already frequented by out-door enthusiasts.

NACFOR also recently hosted the workshop, “Making Positive Change in the Local Forest Economy” which focused on creating a dialogue about land issues, wood supply and region-al training opportunities.

The open house on Wednesday was attended by a record number of people and provided crucial feed-back to the company.

NACFOR Open House

The B.C. govern-ment is sticking to education to keep grad parties safe this spring, rather than increasing penalties for “party bus” com-panies.

Officials are more concerned about under-aged drink-ing at house parties and bush parties than alcohol served in limousines and buses that have be-come a popular way for young people to go out on the town.

Transpor tat ion Minister Todd Stone said party bus op-erators have been reminded that no open liquor is al-lowed in any vehicle, and inspections will continue with viola-tors risking loss of their licences. Party bus operators have changed their web-sites and advertising to emphasize that no drinking is allowed on board.

At a graduation safety event in Vic-toria, RCMP and ICBC representa-tives stressed that there are grad-re-lated fatalities ev-ery spring, and the problem extends to adult-sanct ioned parties.

Inspector Ted Emanuels, officer in charge of the B.C. RCMP’s enhanced traffic services, said any event or trans-portation where al-cohol is served to minors is not a safe grad.

“The misuse and

abuse of drugs and alcohol are the un-derlying factor in grad events where the police get in-volved, including physical assault, sexual assault, fights and accidental inju-ries,” Emanuel said. “We know from ex-perience that bad things happen to good kids in these environments. There are also criminal and civil liabilities that you need to be aware of.”

On average, there are four teens killed in graduation-relat-ed vehicle incidents each year in B.C., with another 1,140 injured.

Jill Blacklock, ICBC’s road safety manager, said par-ents need to discuss transportation plans with teens before every event they go to, giving them more than one option. Programming taxi numbers into their phones and check-ing transit schedules before they go out are recommended.

After grad is over, the summer ahead is a time of parties that need the same kind of planning, Black-lock said.

Emanuels said one of the most difficult jobs in policing is knocking on some-body’s door in the middle of the night to report a fatality.

“Answering that door is worse,” he said. “Our objec-tive is that your kids wake you up at four in the morning and not us.”

Continued from Pg 1

Cougarettes impressive soccer season

1-0 victory over an intense Kaslo squad, then, the Cou-gars moved onto a deadlock battle with Kimberly. � e contest could not be settled during regulation time and evolved into a war of attrition as each team took turns ham-mering away at a shootout. � e stalemate was shattered a� er twelve rounds of dot shots when Maddy Palmer put the ball into the back of the net and punched Nakusp’s ticket to the provincials.

� e BC School Sports sin-gle A girls soccer tournament is a contest that pits 16 teams from around the province into a four playo� pool battle for the coveted banner that is awarded to the winning team.

� is year’s tournament was hosted by private school West Point Grey Academy in Van-couver. Nakusp was seeded into a pool with North Island, Fort St. James and familiar private school provincial reg-ular, Immaculata.

� e girls earned their � rst win during their � rst tour-

nament game against North Island, dispatching the team from Port McNeill with a 3-0 victory. � e winning perfor-mance continued with a se-quential triumph against Fort St. James, as the girls domi-nated the match with a 4-0 showing.

Maddy Palmer netted the goal of note with a stealer header o� a corner kick.

� e next match up was against the provincial jugger-naut, Immaculata. Rumors of this squads seasonal stomping around the Kelowna soccer circuit did not dissuade the Cougars from � ghting tooth and nail for a victory that would have carried them to a chance to play in the � nals.

� e girls’ uni� ed determi-nation stupe� ed the Immacu-lata powerhouse into a goal-less draw during the � rst half. However, the break allowed the private school to regroup and switch up strategies that capitalized on opportunities to � nd the back of the net, and walked o� the � eld defeating the Cougars 4-0.

Immaculata coach, Paul

Friere congratulated Palmer on Nakusp’s e� orts, confess-ing, “that was the toughest � rst half we had this year.”

� e defeat moved the op-portunity to win the banner beyond the reach of Nakusp, but kept hopes alive of im-proving last year’s 6th place provincial showing.

� e Cougars’ � rst playo� game was against Langley Christian and the sweet stand-alone goal by Kira Streliev catapulted the Cougars into a contest for 5th or 6th place.

� e � nal game of the tour-nament was a rematch against old rival Kimberly, and af-ter 70 minutes of � erce play, another stand-alone goal by Streliev earned the Cougars a � � h place, and the Nakusp squad managed to build a top public school � nish out of their leggo pieces.

Palmer described the week as “extraordinary” and ex-pressed her admiration for her squad stating “Jay and I are so proud of how the girls played and carried themselves on and o� the � eld. � ey are such a cohesive group.”

Members of the Stepping Stones Child Care Society took to the streets for their annual Toddle-A-Thon walk. The colorful group paraded down Broadway street on Friday May 30 to raise awareness about the local Stepping Stones Center and pro-mote early childhood development.

Toddle-A-Thon walk

“It is so � ne and yet so terrible to stand in front of a blank canvas.” So goes the famous quote by French art-ist Paul Cezanne and no doubt rings true for those of us who view any blank space or white wall as a neglected void screaming out for color, detail and life.

Nakusp Elementary School has a colorful history of answering the call of inspiration and taking up the paint-brush, artfully engaging in the battle of eradicating monotony.

Over the years, and under the direc-tion of like-minded virtuosos, students have been encouraged to color the ur-ban landscape, brushing life onto the blank walls of their school and com-munity.

� e battle has slowly been tipping in

favor of the creative; the north end of the elementary school being conquered by a vibrant mosaic of indi-vidually painted tiles depicting smiling faces, outdoor activities and abstract representations of the world of the young creative mind. A similar collec-tion of tiles can be found at the Nakusp Hotsprings.

� e latest conquest of blank canvas-es in Nakusp is a spring themed instal-lation orchestrated by Nakusp’s very own professional artist, Barbara Maye. Maye is an accomplished multi-media designer who has been exhibiting her work since 1993 in galleries as far away as Germany.

A graduate of the University of Calgary, Maye was awarded the Fac-ulty’s Gold Medal for highest academic standing in 2007 and went on to � ex her expertise in the world of teaching

at Mount Royal University and North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre. Maye eventually relocated to Nakusp, and now travels the lake basin area, bring-ing her experience and professionalism to a variety of art classes and projects.

Maye was approached by NES teachers Leslie Leitch and Brenda Mc-Quair to help write an ArtStarts grant to secure the funding to be-spackle the white wall on the south west side of the elementary.

ArtStarts is a not for pro� t organi-zation that promotes and organizes opportunities for professional artists to either integrate into classrooms for artistic projects or provide workshops, exhibits and performances.

� e partnership is a dynamic learn-ing experience for the students, but is also a change for teachers and artists to learn from each other. Like mixing colors, mixing pedagogy with profes-sional art can create something won-derful and o� en unexpected.

� e concept for the elementary wall is a “Birds eye view of spring” and Maye was originally going to invite students to paint their own cameos onto the mountainous landscape.

But art is not a static process, and the cameo idea evolved into

personalized raindrops drizzling over the landscape. “It’s like the raindrops are deliver-

ing spring” observes Maye. � e vernal scene is part of a larger tetraptyc which the school plans to transform all four entrances to the elementary school into a representation of one of the four seasons.

Lurking behind the enthralling ca-thartic experience of painting on a public space is a lesson to be learned.

Maye used the opportunity of the mural project to teach the students of Nakusp Elementary about the artist’s essential tool, the color wheel. Each student who took up the paintbrush was introduced to the primary colors and had their hand at mixing paint.

“I want to thank the kids at NES for being so charming, courageous and eager to learn” Maye comments, “I also want to thank all of the teachers, par-ents and volunteers who really made the whole process much smoother. What an experience!”

In light of rapid changes in society, numerous attempts have been made over the years to encour-age the BC Govern-ment to heed the con-cerns of seniors and the service providers who work with them.

In recent times, the call has been at least partially answered

with the establish-ment of the Office of the Seniors Advocate and the appointment of a full-time profes-sional worker and her staff.

Prior to this, many communities includ-ing our own have done their best to meet the growing needs of older citi-

zens, primarily on a volunteer basis and at their own expense.

There is no doubt that this new service

is greatly needed. The task of meeting its requirements will be daunting, but essen-tial if progress is to be made.

Any group or indi-vidual wishing to ex-press their concerns to the Seniors’ Ad-vocate, is invited to a public meeting to of-fer feedback on older

persons’ quality of life and other communi-ty-related issues.

Input will be com-piled and reviewed by the Advocate to assist in drawing up future-plans.

The meeting will take place on Friday June 20, 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in the Koo-tenay Room of the Castlegar Communi-ty Complex, 2101 6th Avenue.

While the resource team is touring the province it will meet with as many interest-ed people as possible.

It looks as though this local session will be a good start.

I plan to follow up on the results and in-clude relevant data in future columns.

Workshop leader Gillian Sanders has helped to install more than 90 electric fences to successfully protect livestock and/or fruit trees from both black and grizzly bears. Correctly installed and maintained electric fencing provides a cost-effective and easy solution to prevent or stop bear con� icts. Beekeepers have successfully used electric fencing to protect beehives from bears since the 1930’s, and when used correctly this tool will also protect small livestock such as chickens, other poultry, goats, sheep, pigs, calves, or any other bear attractant. This workshop will discuss different e-fencing designs for permanent

and temporary fences that can be adapted to your particular needs.

The Kootenay Boundary Grizzly Electric Fencing Project offers a 50% cost share on bear electric fence install or upgrade. Come to

The 3rd Annual Scotch Broom Bash is a collaborati ve eff ort between the Central Kootenay Invasive Plant Committ ee and the Village of Nakusp to manage invasive Scotch Broom within Village limits. Although Scotch Broom may appear to be a visually striking plant in the early summer, the negati ve impacts far outweigh the positi ve. Last year, with the help of Nakusp Elementary students, a large infestati on was eliminated along the walking path below the cemetery. This year

we are looking for volunteers.

2014 NAKUSP SCOTCH BROOM BASH

MONDAY, JUNE 9TH

It was a hot day, and it was even hotter in the Bonning-ton. But some like it hot, as they say, and despite the swel-tering heat, a gaggle of tiny tots and serious young adults where poised to strut their stuff for the annual year end performance by the mem-bers of the Dance on the Kusp dance troupe.

A variety of levels and styles were showcased on Saturday night under the euphoric ban-ner, “Gotta Good Feeling.” Accomplished performer and enthusiastic Nakuspian Cas-sia Parent founded Dance on the Kusp in 2013 with the pri-mary goal of bringing a little movement and opportunity to those who dream to follow their dancing urges.

Working in partnership with the NaCoMo center, Par-ent offers instruction in Jazz, Musical Theatre, Hip Hop, Contemporary as well as adult programs. Parent’s students have been working hard to learn steps, techniques, and teamwork and the year-end performance is the culmina-

tion of months of practice and fun.

Marylin Massy, a zealous member of the Arrow Lakes Arts Council, was on hand to act as the MC for the evening. “The performance is made possible by the Arrow Lakes Art Council” Massy began, “with all proceeds tonight go-ing towards the 2014/2015 concert series bringing con-tinued live performing art to our community.”

The evening was chalk full of leaps and bounds, but the highlights saw the showcase of some unique performanc-es. Four solos were included on the bill to be performed by Tasha Bjarnason, Makayla Teindl, Mikala Lewis-Morri-son and Sydney Bone.

Parent celebrated the young ladies’ accomplishments by proclaiming, “with little ac-cess to performing arts like dance and athleticism, these guys have totally proven to me that in four months, you can do anything.”

The audience was also blown away by the well cho-reographed group dance by the 12-14 year Jazz troupe.

Massy introduced “Sail”

as a performance that “takes us on a journey where a sil-very creature comes apart and moves through different pat-terns of pulsing and weaving.” The fluid dance was moving and beautiful as the ladies co-operated to create a mythical creature that could only exist through the efforts of the eight performers.

The crowd favorite of the night was the dance and song duo by Kaitlyn and Makayla Teindl who brought their sis-terly rivalry to life through their rendition of “Anything you can do.” The two young girls jockeyed back and forth, each trying to outdo the other in a touching and comically sweet on-stage battle of tal-ents.

Parent took advantage of the gathered audience at the end of the dance recital to award each dancer with a cer-tificate of recognition for their efforts. The group, in response, awarded their teacher with a heartfelt thanks, delivered by dancer Sydney Bone, who ex-claimed, “if it wasn’t for Dance on the Kusp I don’t think any of us would be dancing.”

We have seen a re-cent surge in the pop culture world that seeks to re-cast fa-miliar fairy tale char-acters in a new light, making way for the exploration of the “other side” of the story.

Previously held be-liefs of a characters pure evil persona are now being scruti-nized, fleshing out a depth that inevitably ushers in the trans-formation of seem-ingly flat antagonists into sympathetic vil-lains.

Somewhere along the line, we got tired of blindly accepting villain’s nefarious mo-tivations and started to ask for explana-tions and back stories to authenticate the source of evil. This literary analysis has shattered the world the Brothers Grimm helped create and complicates the mor-al lessons fairy tales seek to teach.

Once writers and other creative sorts unleashed the poten-tial for research into the motive of evil, there, lurking behind the typical fairy tale plot lines, a vast un-

tapped mine of story ideas was unearthed.

The reinventing of fairy tales has hit its stride from the crass antics of Shrek to the Broadway success of Wicked, audiences are demanding more complexity out of their villains as the “born evil” model doesn’t fly anymore.

The latest addition to this pop culture movement comes from the brain stew of one of our very own Nakusp Second-ary School students, who has taken it upon herself to take a fresh look at some classic fairy tale characters.

Celeste Gingras, grade 12 student at NSS and member of Patrick Macgibbon’s drama class, jumped at the opportunity to write a script when the students suggest-ed that they them-selves write an origi-nal drama for this year’s class produc-tion.

Two complete scripts were present-ed to the class after the Christmas break and students voted for their favorite. The broody comedy titled Who’s Afraid of the Dark by Gingras was chosen.

This is uncharted

territory for drama teacher Macgibbon, who is a veteran di-rector, but has never produced a student written play before. He describes the ex-perience as “great” and is impressed with the efforts he has seen.

“There is a way higher level of student buy-in.” comments Macgibbon, “It’s ba-sically the students’ production and really I have been more of an overseer, but from

the ground up they have basically done everything.”

Out of 15 students in the class, five have dedicated themselves to the tasks of stage manager, set design, lighting design, set building and back-stage manager while the other students will be appearing on stage.

The play is a mys-tery-comedy that is packed full of the witty humor that only a teenager could write. The dark plot focuses on the myste-rious disappearances of fairy tale creatures from their fairy tale world and is inter-woven with a com-mentary that analyzes the potential of an evil character to turn good and vise versa.

Who’s Afraid of the Dark will be pre-sented to the Nakusp public on Thursday, June 5 and Friday, June 6, at 7:30 p.m. in the Bonnington.

In addition, don’t miss the year end performance of the Nakusp Secondary School band. This musical performance will be hosted in the NSS gym on June 4 at 7:30 p.m.
