n Firefighter Sean Scott sets up a perimeter around the TD Canada Trust on Wednesday morning, as the bank’s staff watch and wait for the fire de-partment and BC Hydro crews to determine the source of smoke that resulted in the bank’s evacuation.
Power outage strikes downtownStaff of the TD Canada Trust
bank in downtown Salmon Arm were forced to evacuate Wednesday morning following the failure of BC Hydro equipment two blocks away.
Sometime before 10 a.m., busi-nesses along Lakeshore Drive were suddenly left with partial power. Not long after, the Salmon Arm Fire Department received a report of a strong electrical burning smell at the bank on the corner of Lakeshore and Alexander.
Before receiving the page, Fire
Chief Brad Shirley says an electrical “bump” was noticed at the station, and some people reported hearing a loud bang.
Melanie Howard at Beer’s Ladies Wear confirmed this, stating she heard a “big popping noise” before the lights began to flicker just be-fore 10 a.m. She subsequently lost
use of her tills.Corinne Durham at Bumblebeez
Boutique had a similar story.“I have about 40 per cent of my
lights and I lost my computer and I lost my phone,” said Durham Wednesday. “I heard a huge bang.

I was on my computer and it banged and then I lost everything ex-cept for 40 per cent of my lights. It was really loud.”
Minutes later, Shirley and fellow firefighters were at the bank. Part of Alexander was closed to traffic while the fire crew attempted to lo-cate the source of the strong burning smell.
“It took some time to determine it was a rooftop unit…, the mo-tor had burnt out,” said Shirley. “We called BC Hydro for related issues as there was a number of businesses in town that were out of power or with partial power.”
With hydro workers on the scene, Shirley said it was soon found there had been a par-tial power outage in the downtown core, impacting motors in air-conditioning and heating units and other equipment running on
three-phase power.“What happens at
times like this is differ-ent AC or heater or mo-tors or anything that’s three-phase and isn’t getting the whole three-phase power, that puts a lot of strain on the dif-ferent motors and they end up burning out, and
that’s what the case was at the bank.”
Later that morning the fire department re-ceived a report from the Salmar Grand, where a similar electrical smell was noted. Shirley said an electrician was able to shut down any units on three-phase power there to prevent them from having a similar problem. Hydro work-
ers were required to shut down power as they conducted their in-vestigation to determine the source of the outage – which lasted about three hours. This im-pacted about 170 hydro customers according to company spokesperson, Jennifer Walker-Larsen.
The source of the outage, said Walker-Larsen, was a piece of BC Hydro equipment connecting to an over-head line behind Living Waters Church.
Power was restored to most businesses by about 1 p.m. Walker-Larsen said the church and the Salmon Arm Legion would likely be without power for the
rest of the day, however, until repair work was completed.
While there’s never a good time for an outage, losing power at noon was particularly bad for affected eateries.
“I can’t operate, I can’t make any of my soups, I can’t make anything, so it has shut us down,” said Wendy Armstrong, owner of Whimzy’s Brewed Awakenings. “Nothing we can do, we just have to hang in there and be ready to go when they’re ready to go.”
In case of any future outages, Walker-Larsen reminds people they can contact *49376 by cellphone, or dial 1-888-769-3766.

The early bird rocks the dressn Photographer Kristal Burgess takes a photo of Jerra Creasy while Erin Ferguson holds the light reflector. This was a sunrise shoot for Rock the Dress where the photographer joined her subject at 4:45 a.m. to catch some unique light and backdrops. Rock the Dress is a fundraiser for breast cancer charities, where photographers, make-up artists and hairdressers donate their time and talent to photograph clients who donate to the cause. This year’s event raised close to $7,000 and the four-year total is almost $25,000. All the proceeds go to Breast Cancer Re-search. This year 65 women had their pictures taken in Salmon Arm, Vernon and Kelowna, thanks to 25 photographers and more than 30 volunteers.

A Columbia Shus-wap Regional District director has resigned as chair of the Shuswap Lake Integrated Plan-ning Process steering committee.
While Area F North Shuswap director Larry Morgan stepped down Thursday, May 23, he will continue to sit on the committee.
“I resigned as chair of the SLIPP Steering Committee, as I did not want to continue to be drawn into an increas-ingly divisive debate over the direction of SLIPP,” Morgan said in a written statement.
Created in 2007 in response to concerns regarding numerous issues impacting the Shuswap watershed, SLIPP is comprised of stakeholders from various levels of gov-ernment and environ-mental groups, who committed varying amounts of funding to a three-year pilot proj-ect.
The project is now in its third year.
“They were trying to push it ahead and I just thought we were getting ahead of our-selves,” Morgan said in a phone interview last week. “I am reserv-ing judgment on any decision on the con-tinuation or funding of SLIPP for the future.”
Morgan was op-
posed to a proposal to send out a survey to gauge public approval for SLIPP.
“My argument was surveys can be ma-nipulated,” he said. “It boiled down to the fact certain people are more supportive than I am.”
Morgan said that at $90,000 a year over the three-year project, Area F is the second largest contributor to SLIPP, after Area C South Shuswap, which is in for $142,000 per year.
“Other areas are pay-ing a lot less and Salm-on Arm contributed a small amount last year and this year, and Si-camous is contributing nothing this year,” he said.
“From the Area F standpoint, we need to see funding done on a more fair basis in terms of population or a tran-sition to some other or-ganization.”
Defending Morgan’s position, interim chair and Salmon Arm may-or, Nancy Cooper, says the steering committee does not yet have all
the information needed to make decisions.
“I am waiting to see and evaluate and bring that to council,” she says.
Shuswap Water Ac-tion Team (SWAT) president Ray Nadeau, says it’s important to get a decision on mov-ing SLIPP forward prior to September be-cause the regional dis-trict will be in the bud-get process for 2014.
Without a decision on funding, he is wor-ried the project will
simply slip under the waves.
“So far the results of SLIPP show the water is clearly beginning to deteriorate and, in my opinion, we need a permanently-funded water board similar to what they’ve had for 40 years in the Okana-gan,” he says, pointing out a healthy econo-my is dependent on a healthy watershed.
“Some people are against SLIPP because they fear they’ll lose the ability to do what-ever they want on the water.”

SLIPPGaming centre plans to host open house
Shuswap residents will soon have an opportu-nity to learn more about a gaming centre proposed for Salmon Arm.
While a specific date has yet to be determined, the B.C. Lottery Corporation and service partner Berezan Management will be hosting an open house in June. BCLC spokesperson Kim Steinbart says the purpose of the meeting is to share the plans for the community gaming centre being proposed by the Adams Lake Indian Band, to be located on
the Trans-Canada Highway at the former location of Salmon Arm GM.
“People will have the opportunity to learn more about BCLC and our partners, and view render-ings of the upcoming development,” says Steinbart in an email. “We’ll also share more details about the entertainment options that will be available, and the responsible gambling programming we of-fer in all gambling facilities across the province.”
The centre is expected to be about 20,000-square-feet in size, and include slot machines, bingo, a lounge and a restaurant.

Relay for Life runs SaturdayThe Canadian Can-
cer Society Relay for Life is takes to a new track Saturday, June 8.
With 31 teams and 261 participants, the nautical-themed relay will be, “Drowning out cancer one wave at a time.”
The Credit Union Crewzers, a long-standing team, are participating for their ninth time.
Chris Verburg got the team going in 2004 and says they’ve had outstanding group ev-ery year.
This year they have their biggest team yet with 17 members. And, including money raised so far this year,
the Crewzers have raised $87,250 for the Canadian Cancer So-ciety.
“It’s another way we can support our community. We’ve had people on staff who have had cancer and we support them and they support us,” Verburg said. “Can-cer is such a big thing it’s something that a lot of people have ex-perienced or had it in their lives so (Relay for Life) is a good thing that people want to help out with.”
In the spirit of fun-draising, the Crewzers have shaved staff mem-ber’s heads, organized garage sales, held bas-ket raffles, 50/50 draws and hosted their mem-
ber barbecue. This year the barbe-
cue drew a crowd on May 30.
The team also plans to hold a barbecue to celebrate the opening of the credit union’s uptown location, with proceeds going to-wards their fundraising for next year.
On Saturday, June 8 Relay for Life start-up entertainment will be-gin at 5 p.m. with Me-gan Able. From 7 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. there will be a survivor victory lap and teams will start their first lap. From 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Ryan Guilbeault will enter-tain.
At 9:30, the most solemn event of the night, the Luminary
Ceremony, will give participants an oppor-tunity to honour those who have lost their lives to cancer and to those who are still fighting a battle with the disease.
The mood will light-en again with a per-formance by the Lead Painted Toys at 10 and The Elk Tribe will keep participants awake and on the track from 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Ian
Hill will be the last en-tertainer from 1 a.m to 2 a.m.
Save On Foods will be running the conces-sion and barbecue.
Because of a short-age of parking spaces, buses will pickup sur-vivors and caregivers at the curling rink at 5:30 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.
Relay teams and in-dividuals can register at www.relaybc.ca.

Support for those who grieveThe Shuswap Hos-
pice Society is offer-ing various support groups for individuals and families struggling with grief and or a life-limiting illness.
The Parents Bereave-ment Support Group is for parents who are coping with the pain of the loss of a child.
This group helps parents find their way back to living after ex-periencing the death of a child.
The group addresses the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual challenges that accom-pany the pain of the death.
This group is for par-ents who have lost a child of any age.
The Parents Bereave-ment Support Group meetings will be held at the Shuswap Hospice Society office Thurs-day evenings from 7 to 9 p.m.
The society is also looking to start a Pal-liative Support Group, specifically for those individuals who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness and a Care-Giver Support Group, specifically for caregivers.
Support groups are free and offer a safe space to share expe-
riences and to learn that you are not alone.
Concerns of feeling alone, helpless, over-whelmed, angry and any other emotions are discussed.
Support groups pro-vide an opportunity to feel understood, pos-sibly for the first time and to both give sup-port and receive sup-port from others.
“The jungle is a very scary place when there seems to be no way out,” says program co-ordinator Judy Evans. “We can help.”

The water level in Shus-wap Lake is on the rise, and last weekend I saw a couple of pretty good-sized carp swimming around in the wa-ter at the end of the docks at Marine Park.
I also happen to know that everything is in place and ready to go for the upcoming 17th Annual Salmon Arm Kid’s Fishing Derby, to be held Father’s Day, June 16 down at the wharf. Between now and then I expect to see a number of young anglers down at the docks ‘testing the waters’ so to speak – try-ing out different spots along the dock area and using dif-ferent types of bait and lures at different depths.
The Annual Salmon Arm Kid’s Fishing Derby is open to all children 12 years of age and under. There is no cost to enter the derby. Registration takes place Sunday morning, beginning at 6 a.m., at the end of the wharf. The only restrictions are that each child must be accompanied by an adult and, each child must wear a life-jacket or PDF. Six certi-fied lifeguards are on duty
throughout the event. Some life-jackets are available for children who do not have one. Only coarse fish are eli-gible for trophies and prizes, and, fish must be caught and played by the child – an adult, however, can assist in netting a fish.
An awards ceremony will take place immediately fol-lowing the derby at the end of the wharf where the tro-phies and major prizes will be handed out.
The winner of the annual Kids Fishing Derby will re-ceive the Salmon Arm Sav-ings and Credit Union W. J. (Bill) Murray Memorial Trophy, an IM-6 graphite rod and reel outfit, a $200 RESP Education Bond -
and they will get to take their whole family on an all-expenses-paid, weekend fishing trip to Beaver Lake Lodge. This will include accommodations, boat and motor, and $100 worth of groceries. Second- and third-place winners will receive trophies, rod and reel outfits and RESP Education Bonds.
The lucky angler who lands the first fish of the derby, will receive the West-side Stores Trophy, a rod and reel outfit, a $100 RESP education bond sponsored by Rotary Club and a $100 gift certificate from Westside Stores.
Two anglers who catch fish closest to predetermined “secret weights” will have their names scribed on the Canadian Tire Trophy, and, will win a new mountain bike. The angler who catch-es the most fish will receive the City of Salmon Arm Tro-phy, a rod and reel outfit, a $100 RESP education bond sponsored by Rotary Club and a one year pass to the swimming pool.
There are also a whole whack of other great prizes
given out throughout the derby.
As in previous years, there will also be the special Par-ent Appreciation draw prize. Adults receive one draw ticket for each child they register. At the awards cere-mony, one lucky person will win a fully decked-out bar-becue with all the accesso-ries, as well as, $100 worth of groceries.
And don’t forget the School District #83 “Fishing Story” contest, sponsored by the Salmar Theatre, that is held in conjunction with the derby. Students from elementary schools in the area can submit an original fishing story – true or as far-fetched as they can make it. The winner of the Best Fish-ing Story receives a $100 RESP education bond, a one-year pass to the show and, as well, everyone in their class at school will get a one-time pass to the show.
Each year the derby just seems to get better – and if the weather holds out, this year promises to be another great derby with lots of priz-es and lots of fun.
Dismissive attitude to treatment must stop
Each year it seems to get better
We don’t talk about the real threats to our chil-dren.
Most parents worry when their children begin driving. They warn teens about the risks.
In 2011, despite that care and concern, 291 British Columbians died in car crashes.
That same year, 526 people took their own lives—80 per cent more than those killed in car crashes.
Road crashes don’t come close to taking the toll of mental illness and problem substance use. Why don’t we, as a society, urge parents to have serious talks with their children about those risks?
Stigma, in part. No one tells cancer patients to buck up and wish their infirmities away. But people with mental illness routinely face prejudice and a dismissive attitude.
People who have an obvious illness tend to get help. At the least, emergency rooms provide urgent care. Those with a mental illness and substance abuse issues face a much tougher reality.
The ER staff aren’t at fault. They send people away because there are no treatment spaces.
The community social services sector plays a huge role in addressing mental illness and sub-stance abuse. But every day, we turn people away, or place them on long waitlists. Budget freezes and cuts and a lack of integrated responses have created a crisis. The cost is enormous. A 2010 study esti-mated the cost to the economy due to lost work days was $50 billion a year. Add the damage to families, the costs of homelessness and health care and the total rises sharply.
A new government has the chance to address these serious problems, providing leadership, ade-quate resources and a collaboration strategy linking health and the social services sectors.
We should make sure that mental health and prob-lem substance use services step out of the shadows.

View pointI cannot express the level of
frustration I feel at once again having my dock building sea-son stalled by pencil pushers.
This shocking order to remove marine docks is ri-diculous. So I could pass on accurate information to my customers, for years I have asked specifically and re-peatedly about docks being grandfathered. I was repeat-edly told that all current dock owners would have grandfa-thered protection to their in-vestments.
Are these decision-makers wanting small business own-
ers to give up and to kill Shus-wap tourism?
Forget reducing vehicle traffic and hello to 2,000 more vehicles at public moor-ing spots and parking their cars where?
This affects all businesses from coffee shops, to real-tors, to grocery stores, to tradespeople... everyone. And where are these docks sup-posed to go? And who are the new enforcers? And who is paying their wages? The dock owners, local business-es, taxpayers?
It is wonderful to learn from
past mistakes and to gradually set out new guidelines but not with knee jerk bullying.
Many of us have been deep-ly concerned for years about protecting the environment, the lakes, the watershed, the fish, the birds... our little piece of paradise.
The real problem is ir-responsible people putting boats, houseboats, docks, pilings, buoys etc. into our waters and then leaving them there to rot into dangerous eyesores.
Or worse still, making mega buoy parking lots. But
this knee jerk reaction is not a solution.
I am a person wanting to protect the fish and wildlife but who is there to protect the people now?
In my opinion, this “tunnel vision governing” is speeding up a collapse of our society by government at various lev-els not listening to the people and forgetting they are in their positions to represent the peo-ple... not to lord it over them!

Dock issue has dramatic economic implications
Duffy scandal on the tip of the Conservative icebergIn the human context
a weasel is a cunning sneaky person who evades an obligation or duty and often uses ambiguous words to mislead. Mike Duffy and Pamela Wallin are eminently qualified to join the Grand Order of Weasels but they no
longer have the moral right to sit in the Red Chamber. Prime Min-ister Harper and his minions are in crisis mode trying to con-tain the political uproar whirling around these two Senators.
Truth has been the first casualty in Harp-
er’s campaign to dis-tance himself from the corruption.
When Mike Duffy stated he would wel-come a public enquiry into his own expenses, I believe he was bluff-ing and actually send-ing a warning message to Harper: “You better
cover my back or I’ll put a knife in yours.”
Stephen Harper is now the shell-shocked captain of the much lauded unsinkable Conservative ship and it appears Mister Duffy is only the tip of a dangerous ice-berg. Throwing Nigel
Wright overboard was the first desperate act of a befuddled captain. Ethical Conservatives might be interested to know the word ‘mu-tiny’ comes from the French word ‘mutine’ which means to rebel.

Where does the money go?
The answer to this question is both sim-ple and complex. The simple answer is taxes collected from Area C (South Shuswap) properties are spent on services provided to its residents.
While it is a com-mon misconception, property taxes collect-ed from Area C resi-dents are not diverted to provide services to other areas.
A unique aspect of regional government in B.C. is use of the principle of “fiscal equivalence.”
In short, when ser-vices are delivered to a group of people, that group of people must cover the costs.
This sets up the complex answer to the question above.
When services are shared across a region-al district, an electoral area, a sub-electoral area or within a subdi-vision, there needs to be a way to fairly allo-cate the taxes collected from all of the popula-tions serviced.
The Columbia Shus-wap Regional District budget for 2013 in-cludes allocations for administration, 911 emergency telephone services and solid waste management. These costs are shared across the entire CSRD based on property tax assessments.
Electoral area bud-gets include allocations for electoral govern-ment administration, bylaw enforcement, GIS/mapping and de-velopment services. These expenditures are shared across all electoral areas, based on property tax assess-ments.
Several budget items are allocated within Area C, and these di-rectly fund such ser-vices as Area C parks, First Responders, tran-sit, dog control and grants-in-aid.
Area C, along with other electoral areas and municipalities, shares in the costs of services that benefit their populations, and examples of these in-clude the Emergency Preparedness Program, Shuswap Regional Air-port, Milfoil and Weed Control, Shuswap Tourism and Economic Development.
Area C also con-tributes to the multi-purpose recreation centre in Salmon Arm as some of its residents also utilize that facility.
Local services are funded by taxes col-
lected within a spe-cific region of Area C. Examples of these include Area C Sub-Regional Fire Suppres-sion and street lights in Blind Bay.
Parcel taxes are col-lected as a flat cost-sharing rate per parcel to fund specific ser-vices such as Cedar Heights Waterworks, Eagle Bay Waterworks and Sorrento Water-works.
Your annual Rural Property Tax Notice provides you with a description of how your tax dollars are al-located.
The tax notice shows amounts allocated and collected by the prov-ince to cover school and police services, as well as the provincial rural tax. There is also a description of the
local services which represent expenditures by the CSRD on your behalf.
Allocation of bud-gets are done on a mill rate basis, which is a factor multiplied per $1,000 assessment of your property to gener-ate a taxation figure.
For 2013, the key residential mill rates affecting Area C are as follows:
• Total Regional Government 0.251;
• Total Electoral Area Government 0.399; and
• Total Area C Func-tions/Services 1.253.
In addition to the above, your property tax notice may include mill rates for a local service you receive such as street lights and fire protection.
For 2013, the in-
crease in property taxes in Area C for an “average” residence will be 1.2 per cent or $4.82.
It is a complex pro-cess to pull together the annual and five- year budgets for the CSRD.
In some cases the cost allocations are fairly straightforward, in others a cost-sharing formula is used to esti-mate the fair utilization of a service or func-tion.

Blind Bay resident Pat Lagi-modiere has been named the 2013 Volunteer of the Year by the non-profit British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
The BC SPCA Awards Pro-gram honours both people and animals who have made out-standing contributions to animal welfare during the past year.
Lagimodiere was chosen as one of two volunteer award re-cipients for her years of hard work and compassion.
Lagimodiere has been a com-mitted volunteer at the Shuswap Branch since 2000, and was pre-sented with the award at a cer-emony in Vancouver May 31.
“Pat’s contribution to the shel-ter has been integral to its opera-tion, the adoption of animals and fundraising,” said Lorie Chor-tyk, general manager of commu-nity relations for the BC SPCA.
Lagimodiere serves on the branch’s community council and has helped recruit donors and participants to the society’s
largest annual fundraiser, the Scotiabank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk.
In addition to planning fund-raising events, she spends two days per week walking dogs, do-ing laundry, grooming, cleaning and providing love to animals at the shelter. Lagimodiere also conducts orientations for new dog walkers and promotes adop-tion throughout the community
by distributing featured dog or cat posters.
“Volunteers like Pat cannot be thanked enough,” says Chortyk. “Her long-term commitment to the community, the branch and the animals is appreciated not only by staff, but the animals too.”
Lagimodiere and her husband are guardians of two dogs adopt-ed from the Shuswap Branch.

A B.C. man “Pedal-ling for Papua” will stop in Sorrento June 11.
Jeremy Bally is cy-cling across Canada in order to raise awareness about the human rights situation and environ-mental degradation in West Papua, currently claimed by Indonesia.
Originally from Vic-toria, Bally lived in Papua, where he dis-covered first-hand the issues facing the resi-dents.
“The region has been subject to what many observers have
dubbed a slow-motion genocide,” a press re-lease announcing the event said. “As many as 500,000 indigenous West Papuans have died as a result of the mili-tary presence and lack of development in their homeland.”
The area was origi-nally a Dutch colony and was preparing to gain its independence in 1961 when Indo-nesia took over. Since this time, Bally said, there have been ongo-ing human rights issues as well as economic is-sues.
Bally hopes to make Canadians aware of the issues in a night of education and entertain-ment.
He plans to spend the next six months touring seven countries present-ing recorded conversa-tions with West Papuan exiles, refugees and activists live on stage through an original ani-mation.
These resources will be projected beside Jer-emy as he narrates with original spoken word poetry and ukulele based hip-hop music.
The show begins at
7:30 p.m. at St. Mary’s A n g l i c a n / U n i t e d Church. Admission is by donation.

Maybe you just spent a lot of money for a new trans-mission. Or maybe someone else you know did.
Whatever the reason, you’d like to avoid major trans-mission repairs in the future.
Makes sense. And there are a number of things you can do to keep your car’s transmission working properly for years to come. Some involve maintenance; others involve changing your driving habits.
1. Check the Transmis-sion Fluid Regularly — Few things will reduce transmission operation and longevity more than low or damaged uid. If your car has a transmis-sion dipstick, you should
check the transmission uid level and condition at least once a month.

Part 1 of a 5 part series
One way to keep your transmission in good working order is to check
the uid regularly.
Despite the obstacles that many settlers en-countered in gaining ti-tle to their homesteads due to the rights held by timber companies, the success of settle-ment in the Shuswap was due in large part to the contributions to the economy by the forest industry.
From when some of the first trees were felled by Francis An-stey in 1878 until the Second World War, there were four eras of forestry beginning with some timber cut-ting for the Shuswap Mill in Kamloops; a few mills supplying lumber, timber and ties for building and main-taining the railway and for local construction; demand for lumber in the Prairies giving rise to high-volume saw-mills in strategic loca-tions, many owned by large American com-panies; and an industry focused on poles and ties due to the lower demand for lumber.
Shuswap Lake’s An-stey Arm was named after Francis Anstey by George Mercer Daw-son in 1888. Born in England in 1830, An-stey was a legend in his time, a 6 foot 6 inches tall, powerful man who often mentioned he was a descendent of
the Black Prince, the son of King Edward III. He likely came to British Columbia in the 1850s and helped build the last Hudson’s Bay Fort in Kamloops in the 1860s. In 1880 he preempted 320 acres at the head of the arm named after him, where he logged and cut shakes and shingles that were rafted on to Kamloops.
The first major sawmill in the Shus-wap was built by the Genelle brothers in 1886 at Tappen Sid-ing adjacent to a con-venient beaver pond close to the railway. It supplied ties and timbers to the railway as well as lumber for snowsheds, stations, warehouses and homes for the section men and managers.
In 1894, The Genel-les relocated the mill to a narrow strip of land alongside the lake they named Kault after the name for the local In-dian settlement.
The Genelles oper-ated a floating log-ging camp that moved around the lake poach-ing timber, which was towed in booms to the mill, by the S.S. Thompson sternwheel-er.
They were also care-less in providing the stumpage fees and eventually the govern-ment forced them out of business and they sold the mill to the Columbia River Lum-ber Company in 1898, which ran it until 1910.
Small portable mills operated in the Salmon Arm area beginning in 1892 to cut the timber cleared from the Salm-
on River Valley and the nearby benchlands. Brayden and Johnston built a larger perma-nent mill on the west side of the Salmon Riv-er in 1904, which soon became the town’s largest employer. For two decades there was an annual spring river drive when upwards of 100 men worked from two weeks to a month in the frigid wa-ter directing the logs downstream. Not only were the banks of the river damaged, but also many salmon fry were likely killed.
In 1906, the Co-lumbia River Lumber Company relocated its sawmill from Carlin Siding, named after Mike Carlin, a suc-cessful lumberman, to
White Creek west of Tappen.
There were no short-ages of calamities for this mill. In 1901, a high trestle built over Broderick Creek to relay ties and lumber to the siding collapsed killing two men.
Settlers often used fire to clear the land and one of these fires nearly reached the mill in 1907 and two years later another fire finally destroyed the mill.
The first large saw-
mill in Enderby was built along the banks of the Shuswap River in 1894.
In 1905 it was sold to the Minnesota-based A.R. Rogers Lumber Company, which oper-ated the mill until 1921 when most of the eas-ily accessible timber had been removed and prices had fallen.
Most of the timber came from the Mabel Lake area and was sent down the river in the annual spring log drive. The mill was powered by wood burning steam boilers that also pro-duced electricity for the city.
The town of Chase owes its existence to another American owned operation, the Adams River Lum-ber Company, which incorporated in 1907 and quickly became the largest mill in the Interior.
Most of the timber came from forests ad-jacent to Adams Lake and the upper Adams River and was floated down to Shuswap Lake where the logs were boomed and hauled to the mill in Chase.
A splash dam built near the outlet of the lake to control the wa-ter level devastated the upper Adams salmon run which has never recovered. Lack of ac-cessible timber as well as lower lumber prices resulted in the mill closing in 1925.
The Shuswap for-est industry provided jobs for many settlers, especially during the winter logging sea-son. As well, many pioneers were able to bring in much-needed
cash by cutting railroad ties with a broadaxe or cutting poles. For most Shuswap rural communities, farmers depended on forestry-based income to make ends meet.
Yet for the most part, as is true today, the vast majority of the multi-millions of dollars in lumber profits flowed out of the Shuswap to company owners and shareholders in the U.S. and other parts of Canada.

Black advised the board that other pro-posed changes to the bylaw include provi-sions for posting nom-ination documents, disclosure statements, supplementary reports and signed declara-tions on the regional district’s website.

Citizens of Salmon Arm united in the ght against cancer this April during the Canadian Cancer Society Daffodil Month, making the annual campaign a
great success.More than $9200.00 was raised during Daffodil Month in Salmon Arm
through the sale of fresh cut owers and daffodil pins. Today, over 60 per cent of Canadians diagnosed with cancer will survive at
least ve years after their diagnosis, thanks in large part to Society-funded cancer research. That’s more than double the survival rate in the 1940s. In addition to funding life-saving cancer research, money raised during Daffodil Month funds vital support services for people living with cancer, prevention initiatives and advocacy for healthy public policies.
“The people of Salmon Arm joined the rest of the country in showing its support on Daffodil Day by wearing the daffodil – showing cancer we’re not afraid to ght back. On April 12th, the Salmon Arm Unit of cially celebrated 75 years as a unit and in conjunction with the Canadian Cancer Society celebrated this milestone by inviting local dignitaries and the public to an Open House.
We would like to thank the businesses, media, the citizens of Salmon Arm, and our generous volunteers for their ongoing support.

&Media overhypes extent of war
Imagine for a mo-ment that all the wars of the world have come to a peaceful conclusion.
Most violent crime against people and property has also been eradicated.
The worst outbreak of violence in the world in the past 24 hours has been a fight in a bar in Irkutsk, Russia.
What item do you think will lead the in-ternational news for the next 12 hours, or how-ever long it takes until something fresher come along?
The bar fight in Ir-kutsk, of course.
“If it bleeds, it leads,” says the axiom, and the world’s media follow it slavishly, so they will always give you the impression the world is drowning in violence.
It is not — but people think it is.
Stop people at ran-dom and ask them how many wars they think are going on in the world right now. Most people would guess about a dozen, although they wouldn’t be able to name them.
The right answer is two — and one of them, Afghanistan, is proba-bly approaching its end.
There are close to 200 independent coun-tries in the world and only one in a hundred is currently at war. They are both primarily civil wars, although there is some foreign involve-ment in each case.
The Syrian civil war is extremely destructive of lives and property, the war in Afghanistan less so and, in both cases the fighting occa-sionally slops over their borders, but that’s it.
There are a number of other countries where there is a lower level of civil conflict: The Democratic Republic of
Congo, for example, or Colombia (although the latter is now engaged in peace talks to end the 50-year conflict be-tween the state and the FARC guerrillas).
But, the Sri Lankan civil war is over, the Iraqi civil war is at least over for the moment and the many little wars of West Africa are all over.
Then there is Soma-lia, the world’s only failed state, where 20 years of violent anarchy may finally be drawing to an end. But, the ac-tual scale of the fight-ing has rarely risen to a level that would qualify what has been happen-ing there as a full-scale war.
Not, at least, what would have qualified as a full-scale war back in the days when that sort of thing was still com-mon. Most of the time, Somalia’s conflict has been more like gang-land wars on steroids.
There is terrorism in various places, like Boko Haram’s bizarre campaign to impose Islamic law on Nigeria (where only half the population is Muslim), the Pakistani Taliban’s campaign of murder against their Shia fel-low citizens and the Naxalites’ long and for-lorn struggle to make a Communist revolution
in India.All nasty, but none of
them real wars.And there is, finally,
the famous “war” on terror, which these days amounts to little more than over-zealous law enforcement at home and selective assassina-tion by drones abroad. Like the “war” on drugs in Mexico, it is only a metaphor for an activity that is not really a war at all.
So, that’s it — two real wars and a clutter of lesser conflicts that really do not merit the term.
In a world of seven-billion people, only a few hundred million have even the slightest experience of organized violence for political ends.
Why, then, do so many people think that the world is still overrun by war?
The media are partly to blame, but they are also manipulated by various governments that raise the spectre of war for their own ends.
Wars that have not happened and are never likely to fill the imagi-nations of the public: A war in Korea, a U.S. and/or Israeli attack on Iran, Western or Israeli intervention in Syria, a war between China and southeast Asian countries over islands in
the South China Sea, a U.S.-Chinese conflict in the Pacific and on and on.
A lot of people, some in uniform and some not, make a living off these mostly phantom fears and they contrib-ute to the general im-pression that the world is still a place where war, however deplor-able, is the normal state of affairs.
It is not.We live in an era
where, for the first time in history, no great pow-er genuinely fears attack by any other and where the number of actual wars can be counted on the fingers of one badly mutilated hand.
Almost 90-million people died in the world wars and other big wars (including the Russian, Chinese and Spanish civil wars) of the first half of the 20th century, out of a world popula-tion that was one-third of what it is now.
In the second half of the century, the death toll dropped steeply to 25 million or so, most of whom died in colo-nial-independence wars and civil wars.
So far, in the 21st century, the total is less than one-million people killed in war. What we have on our hands here is a miraculous and mostly unsung success
story. There will doubt-less be more wars, but they may be small and infrequent.
We are obviously do-ing something right.
We should figure out what it is — and do more of it.

“Our Culture, Our Life, Our Time, Our Turn” was the theme of the School District #83 Aboriginal Gradu-ation Celebration held at Pleasant Valley Sec-ondary School in Arm-strong on Wednesday May 29.
The touching and humorous evening in-cluded the presenta-tion of several awards,
including two $500 scholarships sponsored by the First Nations Education Council.
The 2013 winners were Kayla Butts of Salmon Arm Second-ary and Sarah Rose Munro of Eagle River Secondary.
ERS valedictorians were Jessica Germaine and Munro. SAS vale-dictorians were Sage
Tomma and Dakota Simpson. Dylan Simp-son of SAS and Munro were given academic awards. Butts and Ger-maine received cul-tural awards. Jasmine Hare of SAS received a social award.
“Go out and walk with honour,” Bon-nie Thomas, daughter of the late Dr. Mary Thomas, advised the
grads in her address to the graduating stu-dents. Thomas said her mother often reminded youths that they needed to be self-disciplined and advised them to think about how they want to present them-selves to others.
“Look and see what difference you can make in your commu-nity.”
For many people childhood memories in-volve the outdoors – on a bike, in the sandbox, with sidewalk chalk on pavement. The out-doors provided endless materials for creative opportunities. The StrongStart Outreach program’s new loca-tion, Carlin Elementary, will be a pilot program for “natural play” which supports creative and open ended play with natural materials and limited plastic.
“The sad reality is we’re living in this digi-tal world, and there’s a lot of positive things about technology but what we’re noticing is a lot of families, and kids especially, are going way over and spending so much time in front of the screen that they’re having difficulty just
developing those social and emotional skills,” said Jennifer Findlay, early learning co-ordi-nator for School District #83.
StrongStart is a provincial-wide pro-gram that provides play-based learning op-portunities for children newborn to five years old and their parents or caregivers. The Strong-Start outreach program offers the opportunity for families in rural communities to benefit from StrongStart.
Carlin Elementary is
the newest addition to the Outreach program after community par-ticipation in early learn-ing activities such as North Shuswap Com-munity Resources As-sociation’s swimming lessons and the Mother Goose early learning program.
“We knew that there was definitely a need out there for families that were wanting some early learning pro-grams,” Findlay said.
With the blank can-vas of a classroom at Carlin, Findlay has been working closely with Bridgitte Alomes, CEO of Natural Pod, to create a natural play space that encourages imaginative play. With the environment con-sidered a teacher, mate-rials will be natural such as wood blocks, fabric, wool, rocks. Natural play helps to develop sensory exploration in
addition to creativity and imagination.
By providing sim-plistic toys children have the opportunity to explore the possibili-ties of it rather than the purpose being straight forward.
“In Fletcher Park playground there’s this counter space and kids will use pine cones and rocks and be selling their eggs or ice cream cones,” Findlay says. “They make it up and it’s just all that more creative than the plastic stuff they’re given.”
Carlin provided the perfect opportunity to create a natural play space from scratch, but Findlay hopes to incor-porate it into the other StrongStart programs.

Some 31 months ago, Ron Hardie’s life was plunged into grief.
His 39-year-old son Brian was killed in a car accident, leaving be-hind Brian’s wife, three children, a brother and his parents.
It had all seemed so normal. Brian had stayed with Ron and Penny for about 10 days while he did some work for a friend.
He was heading home on a Friday night in October 2010 to see his wife and children.
Instead, Ron and his wife Penny got the call that would for-ever change their lives at about 4:30 the next morning.
“Utter horror, you just can’t believe it hap-pens,” Hardie says of his reaction to the news that his son had died at the scene on the Co-quihalla Highway near Hope. “We were kind of numb for the first few hours. It’s so hard
to wrap your head, your thoughts, around that.”
Like other people lost in grief, the Hardies were faced with the dif-ficult process of dealing with their son’s death in practical terms.
“What has to be planned? Where do we go? Who do we call, who do we tell?” he says. “There is no train-ing.”
For the next year the couple tried to cope with their grief on their own.
“You just don’t know what to do, who to talk to,” Hardie says. “We found that most of our friends had already moved on; they didn’t want to talk about it anymore. But it was such a big thing in our lives.”
Hardie had heard about Compassionate Friends from his sister in Winnipeg and when he saw an advertise-ment in the Vernon Morning Star, he and Penny decided to give the group a try.
What they found was
that there were people who were still grieving for their lost children up to 12, even 20, years later.
“We could see the pain on their faces even after all that time,” he says. “We found that it’s OK to grieve. People still talked about their lost children, it didn’t matter how long it was.”
When the Hardies heard that Cathy Sos-nowsky had started a Salmon Arm chapter of the international sup-port group for bereaved parents, the couple be-gan attending here too.
“You can speak about anything you want
without being interrupt-ed,” Hardie says, not-ing that nobody else is allowed to interrupt or even to pass the speaker a tissue – attention is undivided. “I’m sure if you asked anyone who goes there they would tell you it’s a good thing.”
Stronger now, Hardie says he and Penny be-lieve it is important to share their strength and compassion with other bereaved parents.
While society seems to support the tears of a grieving woman, Sos-nowsky says people tend to expect stoicism from men and be em-barrassed by their tears.
In honour of Father’s Day, Sosnowsky says Compassionate Friends will put aside some time for a “men-only” sharing circle at their June 11 meeting so be-reaved fathers can tell their stories and express their feelings to each other.
C o m p a s s i o n a t e Friends meet on the second Tuesday of ev-
ery month at 7 p.m. at St. Andrews Presbyteri-an Church, 1981 Ninth Ave. NE (by the bowl-ing alley).
For more informa-tion, call Cathy at 250-832-2454.

Improving the quality of life for seniors with video conferencing
INFORMATION DESIGNED TO PROMOTE AND ENHANCE YOUR WELLBEING
To advertise here call one of our sales reps
By Byron MikiEach day more and more
seniors are turning to online technology for solutions to a wide variety of needs. Be-yond the obvious Google searches for weather, news and entertainment, Seniors are using Social Media apps to connect with friends, family and a growing as-sortment of professionals.
One really neat solution is
video conferencing. Com-mon for years in many cor-porate boardrooms, now, many seniors are turning to applications like Skype to connect online from the convenience of their home. Skype is an easy, cheap solution that can be set up in most urban homes. It is even easier for seniors liv-ing in Independent Living residences where trained staff can easily assist se-niors with the setup and use of this form of communica-tion.
The benefits of online vid-
eo conferencing for seniors are many. Here are a few benefits that may encourage more seniors to use these new and easy technology:
1) Convenience. No
need to travel to appoint-ments for consultations or social visits. Many seniors are not mobile and hopping in a car or on public transit is not a convenient option for them. With video con-ferencing, important or sen-sitive conversations can be
held without leaving their home. Some seniors are now able to meet with ther-apists, counsellors, teachers and even students from the comfort of their homes.
2) Cheap solution to travel. The cost of travel is rising and this prevents many seniors from visit-ing friends and family. On the other hand, high speed internet connections are becoming more affordable, especially when bundled with other services such as TV and phone. Skype to Skype connections are free. Conversations can occur at any time and for as long as desired.
3) Private. Seniors have the option of conducting conversations when they are ready. Just like a phone call, you are not required to
answer an incoming call. You can always take a mo-ment to tidy up a room or comb your hair prior to re-turning a call. You can even conduct the call without the camera on.
4) For family and friends, a visual connec-tion helps to affirm the ba-sic health of their elderly friends. Are they losing weight, or gaining weight? Are they messy, or dirty? Both communicators can easily reassure themselves that all is well from a far.
5) Playful. Once setup, grandparents can tell bed-time stories to grand chil-dren, sing songs together, play on-line games, teach, explain and listen to one another. It’s a great way to connect the generations.
6) Meet new friends.
Many seniors love to so-cialize. Some are lonely and others just like to ex-pand their circles. Regard-less, on-line communities exist that can easily match interests so that conversa-tions and eventually friend-ships can flourish.
Video conferencing fa-cilitates a common human need to socialize, in ways that traditional methods can’t. It is cheap, conve-nient, safe, and fun.

Set for the festivaln TD Canada Trust manager Ralph Segreto is all ready for this year’s Roots and Blues Festival after dropping off the bank’s annual Main Stage sponsorship cheque at the festival office.
James murray/market news
On May 31, health-care organizations around the world bring attention to World No Tobacco Day.
This year’s theme was “Ban tobacco ad-vertising, promotion and sponsorship.” To-bacco advertising bans aim to counteract the misleading information used in marketing cam-paigns and also strive to prevent youth from be-ing exposed to the lure of tobacco advertising.
Sadly, only six per cent of the world’s populations are pro-tected from exposure to tobacco industry advertising tactics. In Canada, the Tobacco Act aims to protect the health of Canadians by regulating tobacco advertising, restrict-ing access to tobacco products and increasing public awareness of the health hazards of using tobacco products.
The Tobacco Prod-ucts Labelling Regula-tions require that to-bacco product labels include health warning messages covering 75 per cent of the front and back of the packages
of cigarettes and little cigars. Health informa-tion messages such as “never quit trying to quit” are required to be included inside the packaging and a Cana-dian quit line number must also be provided to link smokers with cessation services in their province.
Because most to-bacco users begin be-fore the age of 14 it is important to ensure our youth are not exposed to tobacco promotions. The Tobacco Act pro-hibits tobacco market-ing directed at youth but despite this, the to-bacco industry remains aggressive in promot-ing tobacco products to youth in new and clever ways.
Flavoured products and colorful packag-ing have recently been used to attract youth to tobacco products. Fla-voured tobacco comes in almost every imag-inable flavour – cherry, strawberry, banana and mint and more. Many youth equate these products to candy, rather than seeing them as harmful and addic-tive tobacco products. Flavours appeal to kids because they reduce the unpleasant odor and disguise the bad taste of tobacco. Flavoured
tobacco products are just as addictive as other non-flavoured products. The tobacco industry is also using flavours in other products such as hookahs and electronic cigarettes to entice chil-dren, youth and adults.
The global tobacco epidemic kills nearly 6 million people each year. Over 600,000 people are non-smokers dying from exposure to second hand smoke. It is projected tobacco will kill more than 8 million people every year by the year 2030. Over 80 per cent of these deaths are preventable.
Tobacco advertising bans can play an impor-tant role in preventing people from starting to use tobacco and subse-quently reducing others from being exposed to second hand smoke.
Let’s support and drive national efforts to protect future genera-tions so they can live, work and play in a smoke free world.

The Columbia Shus-wap Regional District (CSRD) will have staff monitoring incoming loads at the Salmon Arm Landfill through-out the summer in an effort to work with residents, haulers, con-tractors and other land-fill users to reduce the amount of recyclable materials currently be-ing landfilled.
“We’re trying to save space in the landfill because we only have about 40 years of avail-able space left,” says CSRD Waste Reduc-tion Facilitator Carmen Fennell. “That isn’t a long time in the life of a landfill.”
Fennell says keep-ing recycling out of the landfill not only ben-efits the environment, but will also save tax-payers a lot of money.
When a landfill does come to the end of its life, the costs associ-ated with closure and opening a new one are not cheap and are un-avoidable as stringent siting and closure reg-ulations are dictated by provincial government.
“It will cost about $12 million to site and construct a new land-fill, $7 million to close the existing site, and $3.2 million to moni-tor the site for 25 years after it’s closed. Our
goal is to achieve zero waste, which would obviously be a huge cost saving.”
Fennell says moni-toring is not geared to singling out or punish-ing haulers, contractors and individuals who are delivering material that isn’t supposed to be in the landfill but, rather, about informing landfill users that many materials are recycla-ble and therefore pro-hibited from disposal.
“We’re trying to provide education as to how material can be better separated to keep recycling out of the garbage which also, incidentally, can
save the user money,” she says.
“Materials have a separate fee structure – if they’re mixed they have to pay the highest
fee. Separating them usually results in lower fees and there are pen-alties for those who choose not to sepa-rate.”
In controln Margaret Romyn carefully guides her scooter around a pylon while Salmon Arm RCMP auxilia-ry Marcel Bedard keeps an eye on things during a community policing scooter rodeo held Friday morning at the Salmon Arm Se-niors Centre. The fun event was de-signed to promote safe riding.

Father’s Day is the perfect moment to demon-strate the love and respect you feel for a father, father-in-law, grandfather, husband, or even a man on the verge of becoming a father for the rst time. Spending some quality time together is always a sure- re way to please him, and a little surprise gift can do no harm either. Here are a few ideas to inspire you.
If the father in question has a passion or a hobby, it shouldn’t be too dif cult to nd a suitable gift. Fishing fans will be happy to receive acces-sories for their favourite pastime, while outdoor enthusiasts will love the latest weather-proof gear to use on the trails. For those who love movies, video games, or music the options are practically in nite. Just be sure to do a bit of detective work rst so you don’t duplicate any of his recent pur-chases!
Why not give a hi-tech gift to a father who’s always interested in the latest gadgets at the elec-tronics store? You could celebrate the wonderful times you’ve spent together by giving him a digi-tal photograph frame lled with photos of trips you’ve taken or family shots that will bring back wonderful memories. If you have a bit of a budget, it’s a sure bet that he’ll love showing off the latest tablet to work colleagues and friends.
If you’d like to help him nd ways to relax and enjoy life, you’re sure to nd a wide range of skin-care and relaxation products speci cally designed for men. What a great occasion to encourage this
wonderful man to nally take a little time for himself.
What are your interests, Dad?HappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappyHappy

Imagine riding your bike 60 kilometres – the distance from Kamloops to Chase. Seems challenging. Now add in the fact that this is a race.
This is just one of the cycling events that numerous contes-tants over the age of 55 take part in at the B.C. Seniors games.
“It’s very physically demand-ing,” said Gary Hunt. “You have to get used to the physical dis-comfort of pushing your body.”
Hunt, 66, is the B.C. Seniors Games cycling co-ordinator for zone eight. This is his first year as co-ordinator but he became involved in cycling a few years ago.
“I’m fairly new to the sport of cycling,” said Hunt. “I origi-nally got involved because of the interest my son has in it.”
Hunt had owned a mountain bike for four years when, in the summer 2009, he and his son
went out to watch some of the bike races, and they both fell in love with the sport. Not long after, Hunt bought himself an aluminium-framed racing bike and, since ’09, he has competed in numerous races.
“The competition is fun and it’s great that you get to compete against people in your own age category,” said Hunt. “And it just makes for a good social at-mosphere.”
Within the seniors games there are three different race types that take place over three days. The first is a 16-km flat course which is a time trial.
The second race type is a road race where participants travel from 40 to 60 kilometres de-pending on their age and gender.
The third race type is the hill climb, which is two to three kilometres in length, and has a grade of approximately six to nine per cent.
“The hill climb is steep enough to be challenging,” said
Hunt, adding that while sport can be very physically demand-ing – and he himself rides four to five days a week – the com-mitment pays off, especially at the games.
“It satisfies two goals,” said Hunt, “getting medals and being healthy.”
In addition to participating in the seniors games, Hunt is also the president of the local Interior Grasslands cycling club.
“We don’t just race [at the club], it’s also a social riding club.”
Hunt says that on Sunday’s the club just goes riding, and Thursdays are the competitive days.
Anyone wanting more infor-mation about cycling in Kam-loops, or cycling in the B.C. Se-niors games may contact Hunt at 250-573-3127, or by email at [email protected], or visit the B.C. Seniors games website at www.bcseniors-games.org.

Chase
n Renee Blanc of Chase finishes rounding the last barrel during her Saturday run at the Salmon Arm Barrel Bonanza held at the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds over the weekend.
Racing for fun, prizesAbout 160 riders were in the
running for $19,500 in prize money over the weekend.
The Salmon Arm Barrel Bo-nanza at the Salmon Arm Fair-grounds attracted horses and riders from as far away as Daw-son Creek, Chetwynd, Vancou-ver Island and Drayton Valley, Alberta.
“It went absolutely phenom-enal, better than we ever expect-ed,” said a pleased Chantelle Prentice, one of the organizers.
Last year just over $17,000 was paid out to barrel racers in prize money, while this year that total rose by $2,500.
Prentice explains that the lo-cal non-profit group working
with the BC Barrel Association runs the bonanza, giving $50 of the $53 daily fee per rider back to riders and horse participating.
“A lot of barrel races take 30 per cent of the entry fee off the top to pay for costs and take money themselves, but as a non-profit group and working with the BC Barrel Association, we put members and riders first, and try to pay out as much as possible.”
Along with entry fees, the prizes were boosted by dona-tions from sponsors. In addition to the cash pay-outs on both Saturday and Sunday for each division, winners of the two-day average category received
gift prizes. Riders ranged from the
youngest at two years to the old-est in their seventies.
An excited two-year-old Han-nah Lewis from Chilliwack, who competed in the Peewee category, rounded the bar-rels with help from a couple of adults who led her obliging horse Lennie.
Chase’s Renee Blanc rode more than one horse over the weekend, placing third Satur-day in the 1D division and third in the 4D division on Sunday. Another Chase competitor was Konnie Herman on Ellie, and, from Pritchard, Kelsy Pozzobon rode two horses.

Chase RCMP officers say they are unable to tell if the break and enters earlier this spring are in any way connected to those which occurred throughout the winter.
While no one has been arrested for the string of thefts, police do have suspects of interest.
Reports of break-ins have quieted down, with a few still happening here and there.
Cpl. Mark Skotnicki said that de-spite most people having already returned to check on their summer homes, police have not received any major influx in reports.
He assures the department is con-tinuing to investigate these crimes, and the matter is not being shelved.
On the waterThe RCMP boat has made its way
back into the water, but it will not be going on regular patrols just yet.
The boat is prepped and ready to go at Little River Boat World, but unless otherwise needed, it will only be used for training purposes at this time.
While most of the RCMP officers are trained in operating the boat, a weekend training session has helped ensure that all Chase RCMP officers will be able to get behind the wheel this summer.
The RCMP are encouraging all those who plan to hit the lake this summer to take a boating course as well, and to practise safe boating while on the water.
Come July the RCMP will be con-ducting regular patrols of the lake, Skotnicki said.
Once school is out the traffic on the lake tends to pick up; this is the time in which the RCMP try to make their presence most known.
While on the water RCMP will be checking to ensure all boat operators are properly licenced, that the boats are registered, and they are compli-ant with safety regulations including having enough life jackets on board.
“The government has given lots of time to allow boaters to get compli-ant, we gave out some tickets last
year and will be fully enforcing laws this year,” said Skotnicki.
Those who are not compliant will be subject to fines and charged with the according act.
The RCMP will also be keeping their eyes open for unsafe boating as well as impaired boaters.
Those who are charged with op-erating a boat while intoxicated, and found guilty in court, are subject to losing their licence for one year.
What most people do not real-ize, Skotnicki said, is that if found guilty of an infraction of this type on the water, it also means you will be prohibited from driving your car or truck as well.
Local police will also be monitor-ing Sea-Doo’s this summer as well, handing out tickets to those spotted jumping waves made by boats. The closer the vessel is following the boat, the more severe the ticket will be.
Police have received quite a few calls where Sea-Doos have crashed into the back of speed boats, said Skotnicki.
People tend to forget that they do not come with the brakes a car or truck may have.
“If you need to stop in a hurry there is a delay and there is no emer-gency brake you can pull,” he said.
Liquor also plays a role in distort-ing one’s perception.
Enjoy safe ball tourneysThe Chase RCMP would like to
encourage ball players to enjoy the upcoming tournaments, but remind them to do so in a safe way.
Skotnicki said that he understand that the warm summer months bring along an increase in alcohol con-sumption, but asks players to plan ahead.
While the local department sup-ports the tournaments and encour-ages everyone involved to have fun, he warns that police will be out and tickets will be issued accordingly.
“They should enjoy themselves, but play safe,” Skotnicki said. “Do not drink and drive.”
Police investigate break and entersRCMP: Criminal activity has decreased but officers have ‘suspects of interest.’
Haldane students concluded their month of gratitude by express-ing exactly that.
About 100 staff, stu-dents and parents filled the school’s gym last Friday as teacher Bren-da Melnychuk led an assembly.
The event was to cel-ebrate the end of grati-tude month, and was done through a number of activities including five of Melnychuk’s students reciting all the things they are grateful for.
The annual event is
held in memory of Jo-rye Yeung, and is em-braced by the entire Chase community.
“The students are proud of the green,” Berni Renneberg said, referring to the co-loured shirts that were displayed to mark the month and in memory of Yeung.
The event also noted the 25-year anniversary of Melnychuk’s teach-ing within the district.
Denise Harper ac-knowledged Melny-chuk’s long service; she has been teaching
at Haldane for 18 years and is currently the Grade 3 teacher.
Along with many other accomplish-ments, Melnychuk took over the Green Kids program when she transferred to the school. Since then the program has expanded and has achieved na-tional recognition by being the first school in North America to reach “earth seven” status.
Haldane Elementary is also recognized as the greenest school in Canada, thanks in large
part to her many ser-vices.
Her hard work has also led to the school obtaining a solar panel which has helped low-er the electrical bill, a composter, and many other green friendly ad-vancements.
Melnychuk is plan-ning on retiring at the end of this year; how-ever, her legacy at the school will continue through fellow teacher, Mrs. Mueller, who has offered to keep the Green Kids program running upon her leave.
This year, June 11 marks the 25th anni-versary of the official opening of the Chase and District Health Centre. Interior Health staff plan to mark the occasion with a week-long celebration.
“I would like to con-
gratulate the staff at the Chase Health Centre as they recognize this significant milestone in their history,” said Inte-rior Health Board Chair Norman Embree. “We wish to thank the com-munity for its ongoing support as we look to
the future.” The 25th anniversary
celebration will run from June 10 to 14. His-toric newspaper articles and staff photos will be on display for visitors. During the week, past and present employees, physicians and original
health board members will have an opportu-nity to gather and share their memories.
The Chase Health Centre first opened its doors on June 1, 1988, as the Chase and Dis-trict Diagnostic and Treatment Centre.

ObituariesBritish Columbia is
the largest and most progressive forestry re-gion in Canada.
The forest sector was part of your gov-ernment’s Economic Action Plan since its conception. The gov-
ernment of Canada in-vested in research and development of new forest products as well as opening new mar-kets.
We allocated in past budgets $127 million to help the struggling forest industry during the economic down-turn to find new mar-kets and develop new products with wood fiber. This has resulted in a turn-around for the forest industry. Now, the new markets in the Pacific Rim have re-vived the industry. In budget 2013-14, your government budgeted
an additional $92 mil-lion, over two years, to support innovation and expand markets.
David Lindsay, CEO of the Forest Producers Association of Cana-da, said, “We applaud the government for its continued support for the forest products sec-tor even at a time tough measures are needed to reduce the deficit. This is a strategic future-oriented decision that demonstrates ongoing commitment to the transformation of the industry.”
The forest sector has forecasted that this in-
vestment will produce $20 billion in econom-ic activity in new mar-kets, innovative new products as well as a need for 60,000 more forest workers by the end of the decade.
Governments do not create jobs, busi-ness does. However, government must part-ner with sectors in the economy to ensure new foreign market agreements and inno-vation makes Canada more competitive glob-ally.
These measures are all part of your gov-
ernment’s Economic Action Plan that has provided jobs, growth and prosperity for Ca-nadians. To echo the Canadian Steel Pro-ducers Association, “Budget 2013-14, presents new long-term commitments… with measures that will strengthen growth prospects for Canadian manufacturing and the people and communi-ties that depend on it.”
-Colin Mayes is the Member of Parliament for the Okanagan-Shuswap.

WOODLOT LICENCE PLANWoodlot Licence 322
Pursuant to Section 17(1)(a) of the Woodlot Licence Planning and Practices Regulation, notice is hereby given that STELLA-JONES CANADA INC., the manager of Woodlot Licence 322 at Three Valley Gap, is making its Woodlot Licence Plan (WLP) for the woodlot available for public review and comment.
A WLP is the central planning document required under the Forest and Range Practices Act (FRPA) and its regulations for a woodlot tenure. The term of the WLP will be ten years, with a possible extension by an additional ten years.
The WLP addresses a series of objectives set by government for managing and protecting forest and range values. These values include soils, timber, fish, wildlife, biodiversity, water, resource features, recreation resources, visual quality, cultural heritage resources, and forage and associated plant communi-ties. In some cases the licensee has the option of endorsing forest practices found in the Woodlot Licence Planning and Practices Regulation or proposing alternative results or strate-gies for approval by the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations. The WLP also includes standards for re-forestation and measures to address invasive plants and natural range barriers.
The Woodlot Licence Plan will be available for review and comment until July 3, 2013 during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.), Monday through Friday (excepting July 1st) at Stella-Jones’ office in Salmon Arm. Interested persons can arrange to review the Woodlot Licence Plan by contacting Pat McMechan by telephone at 250-814-7661 or by email at [email protected].
To be considered in the final Woodlot Licence Plan that will be submitted for approval, comments must be in writing and received by July 3, 2013 at:
