Swimmer presumed drowned

The RCMP and Shuswap Volunteer Search and Rescue (SVSAR) called off the search for 24-year-old Andrew Wilson of Salmon Arm late Tuesday afternoon.

Wilson, the son of Lynda and Lorne Wilson of Salmon Arm, had been missing since Monday af-ternoon after being swept away by currents while swimming in the Sey-mour River.

RCMP and searchers have concluded that it is unlikely that Wilson survived and he is pre-sumed to have drowned.

Reports indicate that on the morning of June 11, two men, Wilson and a friend, travelled to Seymour Arm for a day hike to Seymour Falls.

“At some point in the afternoon, one of the men jumped into the Seymour River to cool off and was swept down river,” reads an RCMP press re-lease. “The man’s friend made his way to the near-est logging road and flagged down a grader opera-tor, who in turn contacted a local resident. The resident called 911.”

afternoon, continuing in their efforts until it grew dark. The search resumed Tuesday until it was suspended at 4:30 p.m.

SVSAR search man-ager John Schut says seven members of the group’s white-water team took part in the search but were unable to kayak the river as planned.

“The river where he went in is a boiling cauldron of foam and froth and absolutely unsafe for us to go in where he is most likely to be trapped,” says Schut of the area about 15 kilometres upriver from Seymour Arm in the North Shuswap.

“We did a test at the waterfall to determine if something going in there would come out, and had a 90 per cent probability that it wouldn’t. We had only a five per cent chance he would be found.”

However, Search and Rescue conducted shoreline searches down the length of the river, except in a couple of canyon areas that were deemed to be too

dangerous. A boat team searched the river’s outflow as well.

“It is always difficult not to find a person, and we know it’s hard for the family because we know what they are hoping for,” said Schut. “We hope when the water goes down may-be we can go back and look again. That’s all we can do.”

Schut says searchers had marvellous co-op-eration from the RCMP and that “local people went above and beyond in their helpfulness,” by communicating with witnesses and search-ing the river banks be-fore search and rescue teams arrived on scene.

“Seymour Arm resi-dent Don Honeychurch acted as a guide for us and a bed and breakfast put us up for the night,”

he says.Chase RCMP along

with an RCMP air ser-vices helicopter and an RCMP dive team joined members of the Shus-wap Volunteer Search and Rescue in the search effort.

Sgt. Gary Heebner with the Chase Detach-ment says search and rescue volunteers did the best they could in very rugged terrain, trying to search out all the pools and eddies.

But searchers agreed the RCMP helicopter that flew up and down the river proved to have the best vantage point.

“The helicopter was, by far, the most effec-tive way to search,” Heebner says. “It could travel much more quickly.”

Like SVSAR, Heeb-ner says as water level starts to recede, the RCMP will continue to have a helicopter go up and continue the search effort.

And, he adds a time-ly caution: “Enjoy the views of the river but do not go in,” he says. “Even though it looks calm, it is never calm underneath. The eddies and currents are too dangerous right now.”

SHUSWAPCommunity mourns father, two daughters

In the wake of a collision which

killed a Sorrento father and his

two daughters, and injured a

mother and son, communities of

the Shuswap will have a chance to

share the loss.

Three members of the Janzen

family were killed after a head-on

collision in Rosetown, Sask. Sun-

day afternoon.

RCMP say at approximately

12:20 p.m. a westbound car at-

tempted to pass a semi-truck and

collided head-on with an east-

bound SUV.

Doug Janzen, 47, and his

daughter Alli, 19, died at the

scene while, Cassidy, 13, was

taken to hospital fi rst in Rosetown

and then to Royal University Hos-

pital in Saskatoon, where she suc-

cumbed to her injuries.

The two other family members

in the car remain in hospital. Patri-

cia Janzen is in critical condition,

while her 16-year-old son Cody is

injured but RCMP report he is ex-

pected to make a full recovery.

A Community Celebration of

Life is scheduled for Saturday,

June 30 at 2 p.m. at the Sorrento/

Blind Bay Ball Park. Everyone

is welcome. Organizers suggest

people feel free to bring your own

chairs as well as food to share

amongst everyone.

There will be a message box

there for anyone who would like

to write something to Pat and

Cody, who are likely still to be in

Saskatchewan.

Flowers can be put at the en-

trance gate of the Janzen’s home.

In addition, a trust fund has been

set up to help with expenses.

All donations can be put into

the trust fund for Pat and Cody

Janzen available at the Salmon

Arm Savings and Credit Union at

the Sicamous, Salmon Arm and

Sorrento branches.

In addition to the loss of the

three Janzen family members, one

of the occupants of the eastbound

SUV has now died.

Ryan Bridger, 30, of Plato,

Sask. died in hospital Tuesday af-

ternoon. He was the driver of the

SUV that collided with the Jan-

zen’s vehicle on Highway 7.

It appears weather conditions

were a primary factor in the

crash.

“There were heavy rains here

Saturday and Sunday and it was

raining quite hard at the time of

the crash. It appears the spray

off the semi was quite heavy

and obscured the driver’s visibil-

ity,” says Sgt. Ian Skinner of the

Rosetown RCMP detachment.

Skinner notes all fi ve members

of the Janzen family were wear-

ing seatbelts at the time of the

crash.

“There were no ejections, but

damage to their vehicle was ex-

treme.”

Alli was attending school at

Okanagan College, after graduat-

ing from Salmon Arm Secondary

last year, while Cassidy attend-

ed Carlin Elementary/Middle

School.

The North Okanagan-Shuswap

School District #83 crisis team

has been dispatched to several

schools to try to help students

and staff cope with the tragic ac-

cident.

Superintendent Dave Witt

said the crisis team went to the

schools on Monday morning and

will stay as needed.

“Our hearts go out to the family

and community as they deal with

this tragedy and work through

this diffi cult time,” adds Witt.

Tributes and condolences from

friends and neighbours also

poured in on Facebook sites.

Laura Spengler writes: “RIP

Alli Doug and Cassidy – you will

always be remembered by every-

one. Your family touched many

hearts and gave me memories

that I will never forget. I know

you are looking down on us and

smiling, trying to tell us it will be

okay. It’s just such a shock.”

Forecast has officials eyeing lake, river levelsMother nature will once again

have the last word.

While the BC River Forecast

Centre is maintaining a fl ood

watch issued for the Shuswap

River June 10 at 7 p.m., local

concerns are centred around lake

levels.

Swollen following several days

of heavy rain, fl ows are expected

to remain elevated on the Shus-

wap River at Enderby, and it may

be a couple of days before there is

a signifi cant decline, says a River

Forecast Centre update. The cen-

tre will continue to monitor condi-

tions and will provide updates as

conditions warrant.

Columbia Shuswap Regional

District Emergency Program co-

ordinator Cliff Doherty says other

river reports indicate the Adams,

Seymour and the Eagle rivers are

levelling off, with infl ow match-

ing outfl ow.

He says offi cials at the Sugar

Lake Dam had to release more

water than normal, an act that will

elevate lake levels somewhat.

Turning to Shuswap Lake, Do-

herty said the electronic gauge at

Canoe recorded the level at 348.25

metres Monday afternoon.

Doherty says the Water Stew-

ardship Division of the Ministry

of Forests, Lands and Natural Re-

source Operations said Monday

morning they continue to believe

the lake will crest at a one in fi ve

year fl ood level, probably in the

third week of June.

“That description is 348.7 me-

tres and similar to where the lake

got to last year,” says Doherty.

“It’s normal.”

That doesn’t mean all area resi-

dents are out of the woods yet.

“The biggest concern we have

right now is beach dwellers –

maybe not so much from water

levels, but from waves caused by

wind or boating activity,” he says.

Over at the City of Salmon

Arm’s Public Works Department,

manager John Rosenberg says

he’s hopeful freshet will continue

without incident.

But in the spirit of hope for the

best and prepare for the worst,

Rosenberg says the city has put its

action plan into effect.

Water levels are checked daily

and staff are on call 24-7.

Rosenberg says reports indicate

area snowpacks are signifi cantly

lower – down to 60 to 80 percent

of what they were.

“If we get a bunch more rain,

the levels will come up, and if it

doesn’t, the lake will fl ush out

well,” he says. “We’re still .4 of a

metre off last year.”

Public works staff have made al-

terations to the gangplank at Ma-

rine Park wharf, where the drop is

usually 16 feet to the lower docks,

but is now almost level with the

large wharf.

If lake levels rise by another

half-metre, Rosenberg says staff

may have to do something with

the federal wharf in Canoe as

well.

“The lake moves 15 feet, plus

or minus, every year,” he says.

“It’s like an annual tide rather than

a daily tide. It’s a signifi cant dif-

ference.”

Rosenberg and Doherty both

agree what comes along will be

dependent on the weather mother

nature serves up in the near fu-

ture.

Both men also agree that con-

cerned waterfront residents should

get some sand bags and get busy

protecting their property.

In Salmon Arm, sand bags are

available at the Public Works of-

fi ce on 30th Street SE, with sand

available nearby in the overfl ow

parking lot at the Little Mountain

Field House.

Sandbags are also available at

Sorrento Parts & Service. Find

them in Sicamous at the public

works department.

When Shaw Centre events co-ordinator Da-vid Knight phoned to tell Scarecrow’s lead singer John Hodgson his band was opening for Nazareth July 7, he didn’t believe it at fi rst.

“I just about fell off the chair – I thought it was a joke,” he laughs. “We just weren’t ex-pecting it, we’re fl at-tered beyond belief. They’re rock heroes.”

But Scarecrow, with their mixed bag of musical genres have a faithful following of their own.

As chair of the Shus-wap Trail Alliance and of the team that orga-nizes the annual trail party fundraiser, Pain knows how well crowds respond to Scarecrow.

“The reason we keep bringing them back

is their range is wide and they can play their own and cover stuff,” says Pain, describing Hodgson as exception-ally talented. “If you close your eyes, you re-ally think you’re listen-ing to ACDC, or Elton John...”

As well, Pain says Scarecrow has a way

of completely engag-ing a broad age group, and keeping them on the dance fl oor until the early morning hours.

“With Scarecrow as our name band we sell out all 450 tickets,” says Pain. “We’ve had them back by popular demand and we know they’ll be coming back.”

Doors at the Shaw Centre open at 7 p.m. Saturday, July 7 and the concert begins at 8. Tickets are $34 for gen-eral seating, or $39 for a place at a table on the fl oor.

Plea for EarthAuthor and lifelong environmentalist Bob Har-

rington makes an eloquent appeal for a theology of the earth, combining philosophical and spiritual perception with practical economic facts to edu-cate, inspire and challenge listeners to change their lives in order to change the world.

Harrington has spent many years privately fund-ing and managing small environmental restoration projects as well as writing and publishing several books on environmental matters.

He examines the place of humankind in the kinship of all life, and in a masterful fashion has identifi ed specifi c problems that we have created, the consequences of our actions and the necessary courses of action we must take to save our planet and ourselves.

With deep insight and compassion Harrington shows us another way.

Harrington will make a presentation at 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 26 at First United Church in an event sponsored by World Service Organization.

Summer Camp for Kids


It’s been a while since I’ve cast a line. Not that I haven’t wanted to ... It’s just that, well, something was missing. Namely my old fishing partner, Duff.

I remember one day last year I was all prepared to go fishing. I’d gone through all my gear the night before, got up in the morning, made breakfast, loaded the cooler in the back of the Explorer, sat down behind the wheel, put the key in the ignition and just sat there. I couldn’t turn it. I sat there for a while and then went back into the house.

Every time someone has offered to go fishing with me in the past two years, I have come up with all sorts of reasons why I couldn’t go – what with work, doing live performances, having to cut the grass, having to fix the screen door and/or put a coat of paint on the adirondack chairs that sit out in the front yard, and/or going for a walk in the hopes of losing a few pounds. You can see why I just didn’t have the time to go away fishing.

I mean, there were those

two weeks I booked to go away to that fishing lodge last year, but like I said, when the time came I just wasn’t into going alone.

However, as the walrus said to the carpenter “the time has come.”

It’s another year and another fishing season. So by the time you are reading this column, I will be out on the water fishing with my new five-weight Sage.

Some one once said that anglers are ever the opti-mists. I hope so.

I’m looking forward to just sitting out in my boat somewhere and feeling the warmth of the sun on my face.

For me, the first cast of any fishing trip is always

absolutely ripe with antici-pation - not to mention the first cast after almost two years. I’m sure that each cast after that first one will have its own possibilities and potential. But that first cast of the season - well, it holds all the promise of the rest of the season.

When I go fishing, I like to think that I’ll start out early and spend the whole day on the water. Just after six or seven, or maybe a little later, like eight or nine. It all depends on how hard a time I have dragging my carcass out of bed. One thing I always do is make a point of having my terminal tackle set up the night before. Not only do I find it hard to see what I’m doing in early morning light, there’s also something about not having your line in the water when every other angler is already casting the an early morning insect hatch.

Preparation and anticipa-tion may not exactly be one and the same, but experi-ence has taught me that one’s anticipation can be quickly dashed without

proper preparation. Fishing is full of anticipation. From the beginning of the season to the end, each cast, each run and each ripple, each seam along the edge of fast flowing waters, each and every insect rise and each bump along the drop-off offers new possibilities and opportunities. Each cast is, indeed, made with a certain amount of anticipation, expectation and trepidation. And the best part of it is that each cast made without a strike is but a prelude to that moment when you do feel a sudden, heart stopping bump on the end of the line.

Like I said, by the time you read this, I’ll be on the water somewhere.

I know it will do me good. For just as there is promise in the first cast of each new season, there is also satis-faction in the memories of past seasons. I was lucky to have had a good fishing partner for so many years.

I’m truly grateful for the memories. Besides, the grass can always wait. So can the screen door for that matter.

Apples have a long-standing reputation as a healthy food. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, as Benjamin Franklin is said to have put it.

But the Frankenstein complex has an equally long, if not longer history. That’s the nickname given to the fear that man’s messing around with the building blocks of life will eventually create something that will destroy humanity.

Bring the two together and you’ve got a prob-lem. It’s hard to blame the B.C. Fruit Growers for their concern that the introduction of a genetically modified apple could ruin the reputation of the Okanagan as a source of high quality healthy fruit.

And while Neal Carter, whose company has used gene modification to create a non-browning apple, certainly has his eye on the commercial return while extolling the benefits of his Arctic apples, there is one benefit that stands out.

And, coincidentally, it’s the same as what made the apple’s reputation. Most people don’t care about a little browning, but it is also indicative of a breakdown of the apple’s nutritional factors.

Take away the browning, and the vitamins and anti-oxidants stay.

So, on one hand, we have growers wanting to preserve the reputation of their product as a healthy food and on the other we have an apple that retains its nutritional value for longer. Anyone see some common ground here?

Consider too that growers have been practising genetic modification for centuries, albeit by the much slower selection and grafting methods.

Caution is a good thing, especially when it comes to monkeying with genes. Extensive test-ing, that too. But allowing caution to grow into an unreasoning fear is never a good thing. If turning off an enzyme can preserve the best aspects of an apple, it shouldn’t be thrown away on account of ancient fear.

The promise of fishing season

THE GREAT OUTDOORS

James Murray

MAIL BAGThe smear cam-

paign against voters in this country has got to stop. Mr. Mayes’ re-cent column is nothing less than an attack on democracy.

Voicing concern about government poli-cies is the responsibility of citizens, and it is our elected representative’s job to listen. If our so-ciety wants an engaged citizenry with faith in our democratic system, we absolutely must have officials who rep-resent us honestly, rath-er than simply rejecting views with which they

don’t agree.There is nothing ille-

gitimate about a group of concerned citizens banding together to have a louder voice, especially when their concerns are being ig-nored by their “repre-sentatives.”

Political activism is not only a legitimate use of our own dol-lars, it also supports the common good. On the other hand, political parties who ignore the voices of those same voters while fulfilling the whims of their cor-porate donors, under-

mine democracy.Mr. Mayes makes

too many accusations in his last article to counter in a brief letter. We don’t have to be paid to be worried by Bill C-38, the bill mas-querading as budget implementation. There are many legitimate concerns about issues including fish farming, forestry, oil pipelines and tankers, tar sands and water. And guess what? Most of us are taking time off work to protest, whether by writing letters or stand-ing on Parliament Hill.

More, we are taking seriously our respon-sibility as citizens to fully participate in our country’s democratic process.

In keeping with the government’s oppo-sition to funding po-litical engagement, we assume that the Con-servatives will imme-diately cease to accept corporate donations.

Political activism in opposition to the de-struction of environ-ment, social services and democracy is le-gitimate and critically important participation

in government. With-out grassroots political activism, we have no democracy, merely an elected dictatorship.

Rebecca Kneen

Without political activism, democracy withers

Bill undermines environmental protectionI’m concerned that

the Conservative’s om-nibus budget bill, Bill C-38, if passed, will un-dermine the democratic process of Parliamen-tary debate. In fact, it is not truly a budget bill, as it would repeal, amend or replace 70 different acts of Parlia-ment without adequate debate.

In particular, this

bill would severely un-dermine environmental protection in Canada. Proposed changes to the Fisheries Act would limit the protection of fish habitat to com-mercial, recreational or aboriginal fisher-ies. Amendments to the Species at Risk Act would put the habitat of endangered species in jeopardy. As well,

Bill C-38 would amend the Navigable Waters Protection Act, giving the National Energy Board full power to ap-prove the construction of pipelines over navi-gable waters. These are just three of the many changes included in Bill C-38 that will impact environmental protec-tion in Canada.

This bill must be

broken down so that changes unrelated to the budget can be debated fairly in Parliament. A budget bill should be about the budget, and nothing else.

Please contact Colin Mayes if you are also concerned about the im-minent passage of this undemocratic bill.

SOUTH SHUSWAP

Hair – most of us have it, some more than others, it’s one of the defining traits of mammals – humans included.

The Bible speaks to hair as a crowning glo-ry. Sott.net describes hair as an extension of the nervous system – like antennae.

For those of us who have had long hair, there is an emotional effect when the locks are severed into the hands of a stylist.

Kimberly May sub-mitted to her first hair cut in five years June 7 at Ivan Idea in Blind Bay.

Rather than allow-ing her crowning glo-ry cuttings to fall to the floor and be swept away into the trash, she turned the experi-ence into a fundrais-

ing event.Stylist Ivan Emde,

owner of Ivan Idea For Your Hair, donated his services for the cause.

Emde cut approxi-mately 22 inches of May’s hair to be do-nated for cancer pa-tient wigs. May raised $215 in additional monetary donations for the Canadian Can-cer Society.

Emde then seated May in a chair where he styled her remaining locks into a bouncy bob.

Master stylist Emde has had extensive training throughout England, Scotland, France and Germany. He has won several awards and competi-tions in Canada and abroad.

Ivan Idea is a full- service salon for men and women.

The salon is open seven days a week, with discounts for se-niors. Tanning pack-ages are also available. Call 250-463-1175 for an appointment.

Blind Bay Farmers Market vendors gener-ously donated, along with shoppers.

Kimberly and Da-vid May are active community members, volunteering often while operating A Rover’s Rest Bed and Breakfast.

outdoors in an idyllic setting, while enjoying the view and compan-ionship.

With more people, the event might ex-pand to include some live music and perhaps some games.

Everyone brings a little lunch to enjoy while watching the fun from the side.

Fashion is on a ca-sual basis. Dressing for comfort is in. A sack race or egg toss on the itinerary perhaps.

Historically, church-es have been a hub for group meetings, outside of designated dogma.

Some 100 Sorrento volunteer organizers have been working for months – others for years – on the events for the centennial season in

the Shuswap. They can be seen at most farm-ers’ markets and fairs around the area, ever ready to answer inqui-ries.

The Sorrento and area churches are spon-soring an olde time picnic on Father’s Day, Sunday, June 17 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Sor-rento Centre Beach on Dieppe Road.

Folks are invited to dress in period costume, immersed in the recre-ation of history like it might have been 100 years ago.

There will be old- time musicians playing fiddle, banjo and horns – live music with origi-nality in the offing.

For those into sports and a little competition, sack races, egg-on-spoon toss and three-legged races are in the

plan – all the makings for a good time.

There will also be pony rides for the up-and-coming equestrian set.

Learn some Sorrento history, enjoy some fun and frivolity with old friends, or make new ones. And don’t forget to invite Dad.

Pickleball

There will be a pick-leball open house and demonstration at the Shuswap Lake Estates tennis courts at 3 p.m. Sunday, June 24.

For those interested in either playing or learning more about the game, there will be equipment, pad-dles, balls and experi-enced players on-site to demonstrate and teach the game.

Linda Brown from

Salmon Arm is “Pick-leball B.C.’s ambas-sador to Salmon Arm and the Shuswap.”

Brown will be at-tending the June 24 event to provide rel-evant information on the sport of pickle-ball, instructions and encouragement to visitors on the use of equipment and coach-ing.

Pickleball has be-come North America’s fastest growing sport, so come out and see what it’s all about.

For those want-ing to start playing as soon as possible, reduced-rate member-ship dues can be paid at the event.

Things get brighter at SalmarLadies and gentle-

men, let there be light – $5,000 worth.

That is what the Sal-mar Grand cinemas have won in a BC Hydro Power Smart energy-effi cient lighting makeover.

The non-profi t movie theatre was voted by British Columbians as the winner of the Power Smart Energy Fix Con-test in the Salmon Arm, Kamloops, Vernon and Revelstoke area.

“Someone will come in next week and tell us where we are most in-

effi cient in our lighting and they they’ll come in and fi x it,” said an excited manager Daila Duford Monday.

Duford said all the ceilings in the theatre have pocket lights fi t-ted out with high-watt bulbs that need to be replaced. As well, she says she is hoping there will be enough funds to replace some of the out-side lights.

BC Hydro judged entrants based on how the business will ben-efi t from the makeover, goals or motivations to

be more energy effi cient and sustainable prac-tices energy-effi cient or the business already employs. A shortlist of fi nalists were chosen from each region and the winners were de-termined by an online vote.

“The Salmar Grand Cinemas said they wanted an energy-effi -cient lighting makeover in order to continue di-recting all profi ts back into the community or theatre improvements,” says a BC Hydro press release.

Council wants more informa-tion before cutting Canoe lease lot owners a break on their rent.

The city has received a re-quest from a Canoe beach lot lessee for a fee reduction. The request comes following an ap-peal on the assessed value of the tenant’s lot, that resulted in a decreased assessment value for 2010.

District administrator Carl Bannister said staff aren’t rec-ommending any changes, ex-plaining the fee reflects what the city thinks is fair market value.

“The assessed value was just a tool to make it easy to do that calculation,” explained Bannis-ter, noting that the final value was also determined by appraisal

work. Specifically, the lease lev-ied and collected for 2010 was based on the original 2010 as-sessment, times three per cent. For each year after, to 2013, an additional five per cent is added to the 2010 fee.

Staff noted that the result of the successful assessment appeal process applies to all 28 of the Canoe lease lots.

Coun. Alan Harrison said he was wrestling with two posi-tions, that of staff and that of the lessee.

“But all of us know, with our houses, if we appeal the assess-ment and the assessment goes down, we pay less,” said Har-rison. “So if we have 30 Canoe lease lot people out there saying that, what my mind is saying, the right thing to do, despite the

decrease in revenue for the city, is to decrease their rent amount. But I want to see the information written first…”

Coun. Chad Eliason support-ed Harrison’s request for staff to come back with a report on how adjusting the rental agree-ment would financially impact the city, but he reiterated the original intent was to get fair market value from the lots for taxpayers.

He added that money from the rentals is going into a reserve to help reclaim the lots, to even-tually be included as city beach property. Eliason suggested the city may have to devise a new formula that is more fair and balanced, with “set increases of a certain percentage or a CPI percentage.”

When the Shuswap Coffee House moved in 1978 to the new Shus-wap Theatre in Tappen, it was the beginning of a golden era for musi-cal entertainment in our community. Often there was a full audience for both open mics that featured local talent and entertainers from throughout Canada, in-cluding some interna-tional groups.

Sometimes the the-atre venue, which was once the Tappen Wom-en’s Institute Hall and later a restaurant, was not large enough, so the Gleneden Hall was booked. That is where Stringband first played, as did Bim (now Roy Forbes) and also where we danced the night away to Dan Rubin’s band, Flying Moun-tain.

The open mics at-tracted musicians from as far away as Kam-loops and Armstrong. Each act played a few songs and then during the second part of the evening there would be a rocking jam that was always well appreciated by the dancers in the audience.

It was at one or two of these evenings that four students from the high school played some great jazz, which were likely some of their first gigs. One of the young musicians, Richard Underhill, has become a Canadian jazz legend and his band, the Shuffle De-mons, played at the first Roots and Blues Festi-val and will be at the festival again this year. When I asked Rich about that evening, he noted, “Actually you gave us an ‘inspiration-al’ quote that we still laugh about today. ‘Hey guys, sounds great, you’ll go near!’ Clas-sic!”

By 1980, the coffee house had become a well-appreciated part of Shuswap culture; thus we took the leap and formed a non-profit so-ciety with 40 members.

The first newsletter, in late February, sport-ed a logo with a music staff rainbow in a Shus-wap landscape scene designed by Julie Farr with help from Jake Ja-cobson. Meetings were often held during the potluck suppers that we enjoyed prior to most events.

In June, the society became officially regis-tered with a constitu-tion that included these purposes, “to promote the development and education of local mu-sical talent, to establish an information ex-change centre for musi-cians, society members and friends, to create a public awareness of lo-cal musical talent, and to provide musical and cultural entertainment from other parts of Canada and the world.”

The February, 1980 newsletter reported on other accomplishments including a healthy bank balance and a re-cently purchased six- channel sound system that was also available for a low rental fee to local musicians.

As well, the coffee house had joined the Salmon Arm Arts Council and the Salmon Arm Cultural Founda-tion. So many events were planned, that other venues were needed when Shuswap Theatre

had a play in produc-tion.

Perhaps the most ex-citing announcement in the newsletter was that the coffee house was working with the City of Salmon Arm’s 75th Birthday Committee to produce their first mu-sic festival in July at the fall fairgrounds.

Lumber had been do-nated by Federated Co-op to build a stage atop a donated truck frame. Unlike the festivals that began in 1992, this fes-tival was to feature only local musicians.

A form was included in the newsletter that also appeared as an ad-vertisement in the Salmon Arm Observer for musicians to fill out if they were interested in performing at the festival.

The poster for the festival, which had free admission, listed 29 featured groups and single artists and boast-ed of “many, many more.” Some of the art-ists that played at the

festival were David Al-lan, Dave Cowan, Jim Johnston, Doug Rawn, Mike and Pat MacDon-nel, Jack Jacobson, Karen Beggs and Jea-nette Clement. T-shirts that featured the coffee house logo were made and each performer re-ceived a free one.

The September 1980 newsletter boasted of many successful danc-es, open mics and con-certs, with more to come, including the Mulberry Street Jazz Band, Ian Tamblyn and Ferron. However, a weekend of rain had forced the music festi-val inside the noisy arena for the first night and inside the cow barn on the second night.

Despite the low turn-out and having to com-pete with other events at the weekend party, a large number of very talented musicians played, the performanc-es were recorded, and two, new stars emerged, Deborah Klein and Val-erie Dunn.

There’s no need to drive to Banff or Jasper to hike when there are similarly breathtaking trails right here in the Shuswap.

John Coffey, a mem-ber of the Shuswap Trail Alliance, has been hiking throughout the Shuswap since the ear-ly ’70s and has shared some of his expeditions with fellow hikers who have marveled at what the area has to offer, while questioning the need to go anywhere else.

“There’s all this area north of here that’s called the Anstey Range – most people in Salm-on Arm, the Shuswap and Sicamous, have no idea we have world-class mountain glaciers and hiking just north of here that’s easily as good as the Rockies,” says Coffey. “And I’ve taken people in and that’s been their com-ment; ‘Why do we travel to the Rockies when this is two hours away?’ And it’s right here and it’s spectacu-lar.”

The Sicamous area alone is a wealth of unique trail systems that cater to a range of hiking expertise. One of the most accessible, Sicamous Creek, is a recently upgraded cir-cle route that offers a brilliant view of Si-camous Creek Falls. Trail Alliance member Lori Schneider-Wood says she is amazed, to the point of being shocked, with how many of her fellow Si-camous residents who have never actually walked the simple trail.

“Even people who work with the district… Never heard of it, didn’t even know it existed,” says Wood. “And it’s two miles out of town.”

Other less-challeng-ing trails include the Old Sicamous High-way, which makes its way down to the lake, the beautiful Gorge Creek Falls trail across from the Last Spike in Craigellachie, and the Eagle River Nature Park, where Coffey and Wood were hiking last week in search of bo-tanical rarities – in par-ticular, the Cascara tree, once highly sought after as a natural laxa-tive.

Wood describes the park’s pathways as “10 kilometres of beauti-fully groomed, all-sea-son trails.”

About to embark on a hike through Eagle River Nature Park with her daughters Angeline and baby Lucille, Jus-tine Patrick says all the local trail systems are part of why she lives in Sicamous.

“I think our trails are vital to our ability to actually appreciate the Shuswap and the diver-sity here… They’re pretty essential,” says Patrick.

Not too far off from Eagle River is the Eagle Pass Mountain Trail, which Coffey calls the “best hike in the whole country,” with the re-mains of an old fire lookout up top.

“There’s a horse trail to it so it’s a moderate walk up to it and very few people have been there,” says Coffey.

The Shuswap Trail Alliance website lists 14 trails alone in the Sicamous area, though Coffey guesses there’s at least a couple dozen. And new ones are com-ing online, such as those within North Fork Wild, a 51-acre parcel of land in Electoral Area E Sicamous-Malakwa, donated by owner Peter Jennings to the Columbia Shus-wap Regional District for parks and recre-ation.

Perhaps the most

well-known trail in the area is the Larch Hills Traverse, which can be hiked, biked or skied from Salmon Arm to Sicamous. The trail was featured last year in BC Magazine, in which it was described as “22 kilometres of vintage trail, including the adrenaline surging downhill zigzag known as the Sicamous Switchbacks.” The magazine’s photogra-pher, Patrick Halley, who was said to have biked many of the world’s top trails, called the switchbacks “one of the Seven Wonders of singletrack.”

Coffey and Wood both regularly lead hik-ing expeditions throughout the Shus-wap, and welcome hik-ers who are new to the area to contact the trail alliance to find the hikes best suited to them.

CHASEGrateful for dads’ contributions

Fathers are 50 per cent of the reason each of us exists on this earth. From birth, male influence brings balance to our social upbringing

Though we only have one biological fa-ther, there are certainly other males making an impact: uncles, broth-ers, grandfathers, cous-ins, either with shared heredity or not.

Teachers, neigh-bours, co-workers – the list is endless for possible choices to forming relationships. Memories are created

through interaction and communication, constructing positive achievements together.

Leaders in our com-munity are the fathers of society.Take for in-stance George Hysop. He was a farmer in Chase, purchased his property in 1939 and contributed much to the community fabric.

Chase resident Della Smith spoke fondly of George Hysop, her dad,

as she told me about the man who donated land for the Centennial Park in 1965, where the wading pool is lo-cated on Pine Street.

“Dad was a driving force in constructing the Chase Community Hall, as a member of the Board of Trade,” said Smith. The Chase Board of Trade (known today as the Chamber of Commerce) celebrates its centennial this year.

“He loved people, es-pecially children and often entertained as a musician. He played sax, violin, drums, and violin/fiddle.”

Smith said her dad would play at dances in Turtle Valley, which is where he met and mar-ried his school-marm sweetheart, Yvonne DeLeenheer. Her par-ents had settled in the Chase area in 1907 from Belgium.

Della and brother Bill are the results of George and Yvonne’s wedding. The genera-tions have ultimately produced 15 grand-children and two great –grandchildren.

“They all love to come home to visit in Chase,” Smith says.

In October 2010, the Village of Chase coun-cil moved to have a plaque made in honour of George Hysop, and then have it installed,

recognizing his contri-bution to the commu-nity.

Next time you see a plaque on a bench or sign in the park com-memorating a philan-thropic contribution, take note of the pioneer who deserves thanks. Happy Father’s Day.

Weather ideal for hatching mosquitoes

Boil water advisory returned to Pritchard

The cool wet weath-er and rising rivers have combined to create the perfect storm of condi-tions for mosquitoes in the Thompson Nicola Regional District. The TNRD says its shaping up to be another higher-than-normal year for the

little blood suckers.Martin Dickson, the

TNRD’s environmental services technician, says crews are pretty much treating continually, working seven days a week and 12-hour days. The method being used the most right now is

hand-treating with a bacteria that attacks mosquito larvae. Some spraying has also oc-curred.

Dickson says resi-dents can cut down on the numbers of mosqui-toes in their own yards and neighbourhoods

by changing out bird bath water once a week, dumping standing water from things like planter trays and kiddie pools.

You can get more information from the 24-hour mosquito ad-visory hotline at 250-372-5700.

As of June 7, due to high turbidity, a boil water notice for the Pritchard community water system has been issued by the Thomp-son-Nicola Regional District, effective im-mediately.

It is imperative that water be boiled or disinfected until fur-ther notice. You may also choose to use an approved alternative water source. Water intended for drink-ing, washing fruits or

vegetables, making beverages or ice, or brushing teeth must be boiled for one min-ute.

Should someone other than the prop-erty owner occupy the residence (such as a

tenant), please pro-vide this information to them.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the TNRD Utility De-partment at 250 377-8673.

Grab your teddy bear and your toddler because Chase Strong Start is hosting their annual Teddy Bears Picnic on June 27.

The free event is open to all children up to age five, and will run from 9 to 11 a.m.

Children can come take part in face paint-ing, crafts, parachute games, as well as many other activities.

The afternoon will wind down with story time and a free snack that will be handed out to the children.

All children are re-quired to bring a blan-ket (because it is just not a picnic without a

blanket), a teddy bear, and at least one adult to accompany them.

Last year’s event was a great success with activities such as a children’s scavengers hunt, necklace making, and teddy bear related crafts. Sand and water tables were available for the children to play with and they had a chance to relax with their teddy and make a few new friends.

The event is free but parents are required to register beforehand by calling Kary at 250-679-2960 or emailing [email protected]

Getting ready for the Teddy Bears Picnic

Plans for aboriginal day underway

National Aborigi-nal Day or First Na-tions Day was created by people in the First Nations communities in 1982. National Aborigi-nal Day was proclaimed in 1996 by former Gov-ernor General Romeo LeBlanc.

Many aboriginal peoples celebrate the summer solstice. June 21 is the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, marking a change of seasons.

Little Shuswap Indi-an Band will be holding a celebration June 21, complete with music

and fireworks starting at 10:30 p.m. at Quaaout Lodge.

A bingo will be held in the Skwlax Hall, doors open at 5 p.m., early bird starts at 6:10.Contact Joan Arnouse at 250-679-3203 or 250-574-3756.

The proclamation for National Aboriginal Day makes June 21 an official day of celebra-tion recognized by the Crown. The Constitu-tion of Canada recog-nizes the existing rights of aboriginal peoples of Canada, including In-dian, Inuit and Métis.

Promoting better health#Miss Chase Excellence 2011, Michelle Davies, receives a Certif-icate of Recogni-tion for her lead-ership in promot-ing healthy activ-ity for youth. Da-vies organized a sports night at Chase Secondary during the winter. Mayor Ron Anderson pre-sented the award to Davies at a re-cent Village of Chase council meeting.

Kids can start reg-istering for the Sum-mer Reading Club at the Chase Library on Tuesday, June 26. For more information, con-tact your local Thomp-son Nicola Regional District Library.

The TNRD Library System Summer Read-ing Club “Strange – But True?” runs from July 3 to Aug. 25. For emerging readers, the library system offers a Read-To-Me Club, and, for teenagers, a teen reading club can be accessed through www.tnrdlib.ca.

When children sign up for the program they will receive a reading log to record their summer reading; collect weekly stickers; take part in a variety of fun activities; and enter exciting contests for great prizes. Every reader that completes the program will re-ceive a special award.

Regular reading dur-ing the summer helps kids maintain or even improve their read-ing and literacy skills. Studies show that vol-untary reading is the No. 1 factor in estab-

lishing good reading habits. Summer Read-ing Club makes reading fun. The expert staff at your library can help kids find just the right book or magazine from among a wide variety of library materials.

Summer Reading Club reaches more than 80,000 children across B.C. with fund-ing assistance from Libraries and Literacy, Ministry of Education. Last year more than 2,300 children across the TNRD participated in the Summer Read-ing Club.

There will be lots to see and do at Don-key Days June 23 and 24 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is an an-nual fundraising event for the refuge society, which operates on do-nations alone.

A full lineup of musicians will be on hand to entertain while enjoying a fun family day at the farm. Each donkey has interesting stories posted about their his-tory and personality traits. Antique tools along with a working

blacksmith shop, are part of the country displays. There’s hot food and kid crafts in a Turtle Valley coun-

try farm setting.The Turtle Valley

Donkey Refuge is lo-cated at 1125 Ptarmi-gan Rd. More infor-

It is the time of year for school sport and physical activity fun days! Whether you or the kids you coach are competitive athletes or just out to have fun, good nutrition is im-portant.

For peak perfor-mance choose a variety of foods from each food group in Canada’s Food Guide every day.

Vegetables, fruit and whole grains like brown rice, whole wheat pasta and oatmeal provide the carbohydrates needed to fuel the body for sports. Milk, forti-fied soy beverages, yo-gurt, cheese and smoothies made with

milk help build strong bones. Food from the meat and alternatives group such as chili, grilled chicken, stir-fried tofu and tuna sandwiches are high in protein and key sources of iron. Visit Health Canada’s website www.healthcanada.gc.ca/foodguide to create a personalized guide.

Insist that the food and beverages available at school events are healthy. Healthy choic-es not only help to fuel optimal performance, but their presence at school sporting events and fun days reinforces healthy eating messag-es taught in the class-

room. Whenever possi-ble, link healthy choic-es at activity days with your school’s healthy living programs.

Ensure the menu at school events allow students the opportuni-ty to choose a balanced meal.

Instead of chips and candy, include milk, 100 per cent real fruit/vegetable juice, cheese, apple slices or crisp raw vegetables and dip.

Choose 100 per cent whole wheat buns to accompany items like chili, soups and veggie burgers. As of 2007, all of the menu items for sale must meet the Guidelines for Food and Beverage Sales in B.C. Schools. If you will be serving food you should contact your local Health Unit a couple of weeks prior

to the event to deter-mine if you need a Health Permit.

Staying hydrated during physical activity on a hot day can be a challenge. Most ath-letes do not drink enough fluids to keep their bodies working at their best. Make sure plenty of water and hy-drating snacks like wa-termelon and orange slices are available to counteract all that sweating!

When participating in physical activities it is important to drink before, during and after the event or practice. Drink 1 ½ to 2 glasses of water at least 4 hours before exercise. Take water breaks every 15-20 minutes during the event or practice and keep drinking fluids af-ter exercise is com-plete. For most activi-

ties that last 90 minutes or less, water is usually the best choice.

Parents and other spectators can be good role models by bring-ing healthy snacks to the next game, practice or sports day. Make healthy eating part of your life!

For more informa-tion on eating for per-formance contact HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 to speak to a dietitian or to email a question www.healthlinkbc.ca/dietitian .

For a list of success-ful fun day ideas visit www.actionschoolsbc.ca and check out the Food Fit for Sports or Physical Activity Fun Days Handout.

Manthers slay dragons from CoastSalmon Arm Sec-

ondary rugby players and coaches of past and present united with A.L. Fortune alumni in the Annual Sunfest Rugby tournament.

Teams from the Coast regularly win the tournament. Two pools this year played short rugby games of 20 min-utes to quickly decide a winner.

The first match that the Enderby/Salmon Arm Manthers played was against the Capilano Rugby Club that won the Canadian Direct In-surance Premier League Championship this sea-son.

Capilano was play-ing under their alias summer festival team, the Gibson Pigs. It was a tie game at half time under a coastal deluge of rain, definitely giv-ing the coastal team the upper hand. Capilano struck first and scored in the corner, just mak-ing the conversion 7-0. Manthers got a penalty

near the posts and Jeff Miller made the conver-sion 7 - 3.

With 10 minutes left in the second half, Dan Gawley fended off two players and bowled over another to score under the posts. Andy Brock made the conver-sion. The Pigs tried to come back and sat on the Manthers’ five-yard line with a scrum. Brett Lord and the Gather-good boys, Matrix and Sterling, stole the ball while Ryan Penner, at scrum half, kicked the ball into touch. It was a goal line stance for the Manthers as the last ef-fort by the Pigs tried but Brock, James Cookson, and Tyrone McCabe made the big hit, caus-ing a scrum and game over.

Second game on Saturday in the down-pour was against Si-mon Fraser University. One SFU player had brilliant speed, being selected for BC U-23. He sliced a few times

through the Manther defence. However, James Cookson man-aged to run the angle on him with his fitness and crunched him near the sideline before the SFU gazelle could score any more. Final score: Man-thers 50 - SFU 28.

The grand fi-nale Sunday versus the Scribes from East Vancouver was even more impressive. In the first 20 minutes, the Scribes ran through the fatigued Manthers scoring three tries, mak-

ing it look easy. A half-time speech by Garrett Johnson and Jeff Miller rallied the young Man-thers. Enough said, the group came out firing to score in the first five minutes with Cookson barging and bumping off the Scribe players to score in the corner. Jeff Smith from Kamloops ran from the Manther 22 all the way, dodging six Scribes to score un-der the posts, with Mill-er to convert. Driving a three-man maul towards the goal was led by Brett

Lord and supported by Graham from Enderby, scoring right under the posts. Wingman Wiliam Shaw made a brilliant catch on the Scribe’s 30-metre line. He off-loaded to Greg Seed who fended off Mike Armstrong to score in the corner. Cookson and Seed were named MVPs of the game that ended up Manthers 38 – Scribes 15.

If you are interested in playing men’s rugby, contact Andy Brock at 250-803-2526.

Shuswap NHL stars Shea Weber and Cody Franson have announced that the fi rst annual Sicamous Shootout Charity Golf Tournament to raise money for the BC Can-cer Foundation will be held July 13 at the Hyde Mountain Resort

Course in Sicamous. Weber and Franson

say they will be joined by many of their NHL colleagues to raise money to fi ght cancer.

Weber says he has been touched by the support of his fellow players.

“Cody and I have

Deadline: June 22, 2012Published: July 4, 2012

Three air cadets may finally be granted what so many of us can only dream of, the gift of flight.

The Royal Cana-dian Air Cadets 222 Shuswap Squadron gathered for their An-nual Ceremonial Re-view on June 6 at the Shaw Centre.

The event marked the end of the training year, honouring the many achievements of the city’s cadets.

Warrent Officer 2nd Class, Jackson Calvert accepted a scholarship to attend a seven-week power-flying course in Victoria this summer.

If all goes well, this course will result in Calvert receiving his Ministry of Transport Private Pilot License.

Siblings Sgt. An-drew Stoney and Flt. Cpl. Cherish Stoney both received schol-arships to attend the six-week glider pilot course offered this summer at CFB Co-mox. This course will give both cadets the chance to receive their MOT Glider Pilot Li-cense.

In order to receive either of the two schol-arships, the cadets had to achieve high grades at school as well as write the Fed-eral Transport Canada exam (the same one required by all adults who wish to receive their pilots license).

All information was then sent to a review board in Ottawa, af-ter which all eligible cadets went through an intensive interview-ing process in front of the review board, which consists of a member of the Air Ca-det League, someone from the regional fly-ing school as well as a military member.

“It is a pretty tough process,” says Com-manding Officer Geri Stewart.

The hard work doesn’t stop with win-ning the scholarship.

The three cadets are in for an intense sum-mer which will require

even more work and dedication.

Stewart explains how these same cours-es taken by the gen-eral public would take about four months to complete. The cho-sen Air Cadets, all of whom are between the ages 16 and 18, will be completing the course content in just six to seven weeks.

The courses the ca-dets will be taking are no easier than those taken by adults, says Stewart.

In fact, because the courses will include all the same material in a reduced amount of time, they are actually considerably harder.

The effort will be well worth it in the end, however, as suc-cessfully completing the courses means finally being able to take to the skies, which for some is a dream come true.

The Annual Cer-emonial Review also honoured Warrent Of-ficer 1st Class Brian Ennis with the James B. Millar Memorial Trophy – reserved for the year’s top cadet.

The squadron’s drill team prepared their own rifle drill performance to enter-tain the audience. This was the first year for this event and Stewart believed it went very well.

Static displays were available for guests to peruse, featuring ca-det training and flight operations.

Many of the guests also decided to test out the flight simu-

lator which is gener-ally used to teach the cadets about altitudes and to see if they have an interested in fly-ing. The Air Cadets

received the flight simulator back in Sep-tember.

The 222 Shuswap Squadron will be re-commencing Sept. 5,

with the south cadet school running from 6:30 to 9 p.m.

Anyone between the ages of 12 and 18 can register.

ILA HAZEL ELLINGSONIla Hazel Ellingson

(Park) passed peacefully in Salmon Arm, B.C. on Friday May 25th, 2012.

Ila is survived by her four loving children: Gail LeDuc of Sorrento , B.C., Jim (Ruth) Ellingson of Cranbrook, B.C., Bob (Barb) Ellingson of Victoria, B.C. and Faye Ellingson of the Turks and Caicos Islands. Her 11 Grandchildren, 21 Great Grandchildrenand 4 Great, Great Grandchildren will miss hermischievous sparkle in their lives.

Ila was born in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan onMay 14, 1916 to Alexander and Susan Park.Their family was a large one, common for thosepioneering days, with two sisters and sevenbrothers. Her family homesteaded in the McKaguearea where Ila also attended school, being thefi rst person to complete grade eight in the wholedistrict.

On October 11, 1935 Ila married Chester(Chet) Ellingson in Tisdale Saskatchewan. Thenewlyweds worked throughout BC on various jobsbut the ranching lifestyle called them back to theinterior of B.C. where they worked both the Gangand Douglas Lake Ranches. Both Chet and Ila hadan entrepreneurial spirit and eventually opted togo into business for themselves running countrystores starting in Alexandria in the Caribou,Hudson Hope in the Peace River, Takysie Lake inMid B.C., and fi nally, Fauquier in the Kootenays.Ila was particularly fond of running the post offi cesthat were attached to their stores and was alsofamous for her homemade pies that she madefor the lunch counters. With all this multitasking itis no wonder that Ila instilled such a strong workethic in her family.

Upon retirement Ila still worked hard in her largegardens and, always athletic, also took up golfi ngand cross-country skiing. However, cards werealways her favorite pastime and if you ask anygeneration in the family it is certain that she taughtand probably beat them all with that lucky streakshe had. Ila’s other loves were her country musicand dancing. Her family and friends will alwaysremember her for her mischievous sense of humorand the twinkle in those amazingly blue eyes ofhers.

The family would like to thank the managementand staff of both Piccadilly Terrace and the HillsideSamaritan Home for all their kind caring of ourmother/grandmother while she was in their care.

A memorial service celebrating the life of IlaEllingson will be held at the St. Mary’s Chapel inSorrento, B.C. on June 30th , 2012 at 11 a.m.

Online condolences can be sent through Ila’sobituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

R.C. (BOB) WOODSOctober 28, 1919 to June 8, 2012

Woods, Robert Charles (Bob) born in Vernon,BC, October 28 1919, passed away peacefullywith family at his side on June 8, 2012.

Bob’s wife of 49 years, Eleanor passed awayin the fall of 2010. Bob is survived by daughtersKerry and Bess; sons, Alex (Jane), Percy (Sharon):9 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.

Bob was the last surviving sibling of the Woodsfamily from Canoe Point, BC. Bob, brother Allanand sister Mary–Lou (Tapson-Jones) grew up in avery different era. Their upbringing was intimatelytied to nature and the beauty of the Shuswap andto hard work on the family farm. That upbringingand its infl uence was evident in every aspect ofBob’s life. Whatever Bob did it had to be useful.But while he was busy working he would alwaystake time to observe and admire nature and thebeauty around him.

Both Bob and brother, Allan were called up forthe service in World War II, but neither were sentoverseas. After the war Bob and Alan returned towork on the family farm and in their spare timethey set out to build a boat. There was no road toCanoe Point then, a good boat was a necessity.They looked at buying the necessary lumber,saw how expensive it was, looked at the timberthey had on their land and came to the logicalconclusion to fi rst build a sawmill. They built thatmill sawed that lumber and built a beautiful 26 footCabin Cruise, the Mary-Lou. Bob would alwayssay “after we built that boat everyone could seewe were useful and we never had to look foremployment.”

After a successful letter writing campaign (penpals) Bob married Eleanor Leitch in April 1961.Over the next fi ve years Bob and Eleanor’s familygrew with daughter Bess and sons Alex andPercy who joined Eleanor’s daughter Kerry. Bobsupported his family working for Federated Co-opin their woodlands department for over 25 years.Bob’s primary job was as a log scaler but he wasa handy guy and would be asked to help witheverything from beach combing to bridge building.In his spare time Bob was a keen member of theShuswap Naturalists Club and he got his childrenout on many a Naturalist trip and Christmas birdcount.

Bob and Eleanor shared a little house just outsideof Canoe for over 46 years. After Eleanor passedaway Bob moved to Hillside Village in SalmonArm. Bob always tried to be as accommodatingas possible. He kept up that spirit and his senseof humor in his time at Hillside Village. He trulyappreciated all of the great staff at Hillside Villageand how well they cared for him. His children arevery grateful to the staff of Hillside.

Bob was a man of honesty and integrity, he lovedand was loved by his family. He also loved nature,hard work and a beer about 3:00 in the afternoon.He could fi x almost anything, in his own way,and had a great sense of humor. Bob will truly bemissed.

A celebration of Bob’s life will take place June30, 2012 at 1:00 pm at Mara Community Church,Riverside Road, Mara, BC.

DEBORAH ANN TRACY (MORRISON)May 25, 1955 - May 31, 2012

After a courageous battle with illness, Deb Tracy passed away May 31, 2012.

Deb started her working career at The Alpiner Inn, and at Fre-Dor’s Chicken, owned and operated by Fred and Doreen Melnick (most recently known as Eagle Pass Landing) before being hired at the Eagle Valley News. It was here she found her life’s work; having a natural talent for creative ad and page design. Her skillwas amazing, and she was quick to learn newcomputer programs and new methods of design.

She was completely comfortable with alwayschanging technology, could master all thingsnew in a heartbeat, whether it was a computer, amicrowave or shopping on eBay. She embracedthe Internet long before the rest of us caught ontoit and, in turn, it opened a whole new world for her.

Deb lived most of her life in the Malakwa-Sicamous area, with her parents, Henry and NellieMorrison. Once she was transferred to the SalmonArm Observer full time, though, it made sense for her to make her home in that community. Also, her life had changed dramatically with the passing of her parents and then her sister, Audrey.

Deb was generous to a fault, and always madesure her friends and co-workers were celebratedon birthdays and other special occasions. Her loyalty to her friends and family was unwavering.

Deb became a big hockey fan, and enjoyedbeing part of the Sicamous Eagles organization,jumping in to help in any way she could –from souvenir program production, to fl ippinghamburgers, to sitting in the stands and cheeringon the boys. The year she took in billets was a fun time for her. She spoiled them rotten and her boysadored her. When one of them left behind a littlekitten before going back home, she discoveredshe loved cats as much as she loved dogs, andadopted “Kitty.”

She met the love of her life, Tim Tracy in June2004 and moved to Salmon Arm in May 2005 tocontinue her career at the Salmon Arm Observer.Tim and Deb were married July 22, 2006 andDeb became step-mom to Michael, James andShannon Tracy, and grandmom to Caitlynn andDillon Tracy. Deb treasured Tim’s family and lovedto shop for them at Christmas and birthdays.

In her 33 years of working for the Eagle Valley News and Salmon Arm Observer, Deb showeda remarkable work ethic. Always on time, shehad the coffee on for everyone else, was alwaysworking as quickly and effi ciently as she possiblycould and was incredibly passionate about herjob.

Deb was predeceased by her parents Henry andNellie Morrison, and sister Audrey Smith.

She is survived by her husband Tim Tracy, sister Donna Baldry, brother Larry Hedman, brother-in-law Jim Smith, nephews John and Garnet Smithand their families, plus her step-family Michael,James and Shannon, plus grandkids Caitlynn andDillon Tracy.

A Celebration of Life was held on Thursday,June 14 at 11:00 am, in the chapel at Bower’sFuneral Home in Salmon Arm.

In lieu of fl owers a donation to the Salmon ArmSPCA would be appreciated.

Well known on cross country ski trails, Curt competed successfully formany years in local, national and international ski loppets. True to himself and his principles he was an inspiration to many, especially his family and friends. In keeping with his strong spirit he faced the challenges of his latter years with courage.

He is predeceased by his brother Svante and sister Eva. He is survived by his wife, Adri and their children Erik (Lin), Christina (Mitch), Marianne (Gary), and 10 grandchildren, Leif, Andrew (Alyssa), Adrianah (Jeremy), Ernst (Tasia), Jane, Isaac, Ellen, Ocean, Noah, Emma.

On June 12th at Eagle Bay, family and friends gathered for a celebration of his life,

He was loved and will be deeply missed.Email condolences may be sent through Curt’s

Boat patrols promote safetyNorth Okanagan boat

patrols will focus on education and safety this year.

The patrols, conduct-ed by RCMP members and reservists, Trans-port Canada officials and conservation offi-cers, have set a goal of having no deaths or se-rious injuries on the lakes and rivers in the area this summer.

“It’s about boating safety for everyone and having fun on the wa-ter,” said Gord Mo-

lendyk, RCMP spokes-person for the Vernon-North Okanagan de-tachment. “You can encounter our officers patrolling the lakes of the North Okanagan and Shuswap.”

The patrols will key on Kalamalka, Okana-gan, Mabel, Sugar, Shuswap and Wood Lakes, as well as the Shuswap River, this summer. The focus will be on safety equipment, boat licences and ves-sel licences (the num-ber on the bow).

Boat operators must

produce their boating licence and picture ID and the paper work for the vessel they are op-erating. If not, a fine of $287 can be levied for failing to produce this paperwork

Officers will be look-ing onboard for safety equipment including life-jackets, a whistle or horn, waterproof flashlight, a heaving line (throwing a line that can offer assistance to another boat or someone in trouble in the water), a paddle and a boat with an in-

board motor must have a fire extinguisher.

Patrol officers want to remind everyone that you must be 16 years of age to operate a boat or a personal water craft, you need to pro-duce your license, and the numbers are re-quired on the bow of the personal water-craft.

For more info on boating regulations, you can go to the Trans-port Canada website (www.tc.gc.ca) and look under boating safety.
