BY BRIAN LAWRENCEAdvance Editor

With a mission “to transform lives and enrich communities through the power of education,” the College of the Rockies revealed its 2015-2020 strategic plan to an invited Creston audience on April 7.

The strategic plan, introduced by president and CEO David Walls, was the culmination of a yearlong

process that included consultation with communities, students and staff to identify strengths, weak-nesses, opportunities and threats.

“We’re working to make sure we’re working with the communi-ties we serve,” said Walls.

The mission statement changed little from its previous incarnation — “If anything, we reinforced it by the verbs we put in there,” Walls said — but the plan’s vision state-

ment is totally new: “To create and deliver the most personal student experience in Canada.”

That will be determined by the ultimate goals of recruiting and retaining more students, better preparing graduates for the job market and better preparing stu-dents for the next stage of their education.

A new brand promise, “Rocky Mountain inspired. Small college

proud,” is among the keys to making that happen. “Rocky Mountain inspired” means, among other things, that the college reaches higher, doesn’t compromise on the quality of education and delivers programs based on the region’s strengths. “Small college proud” highlights per-sonal attention and quick decisions on things that matter.

Brian LawrenceON BROADWAY — The Blossom Valley Singers showcased Broadway musicals in their annual spring tea, held on Saturday and Sunday, with performances of about two dozen songs from shows ranging from Oklahoma to Hair. The concert also featured Valley Voices, the Creston children’s choir, and Key of She, who joined them for a few numbers (above). The concert also included sing-alongs led by Marlene Nash and Bryan Daybell. For more photos, visit www.crestonvalleyadvance.ca/ourtown.

CRESTONCOMMUNITY BAND

The Creston Community Band, often the guest at local functions to help with fund-raising, is pleased to announce an Arts and Culture Week con-cert on April 25 at the Prince Charles Theatre.

Our concert focuses on band members’ pursuit of

musical opportunities with other individuals and commu-nity groups, such as Rainbow Connection, Kokanee Brass and Footlighters Theatre Society. Band conductor Monte Anderson, who is well known for his support of local singers, will accompany Marlene Nash.

Doors open at 7 p.m. and the concert begins at 7:30.

Admission is $10, with tickets available from band members, Black Bear Books, Kingfisher Used Books or at the door.

The present Creston Community Band was formed in 1989 by a small group of dedicated musicians who saw a real need to provide appropri-ate music at various town func-tions. Band members come from all parts of the community

and even as far away as Cranbrook.

Under the direc-tion of Anderson, the band has a large rep-ertoire, which includes upbeat swing, jazz, Dixie, film and television tunes, Broadway hits, classical, traditional and dance tunes, offering something for all musical types and tastes.

The band is always looking for new mem-bers. Some of the pres-ent members had not played an instrument for over 30 years and were amazed at how quickly it all came back. So, if you are a recent player or have not played since school (however long ago that was), from piccolo to tuba, the band will help you get back into the “swing” of things.

The band has recently moved to St Stephen’s Presbyterian Church hall where it can store its music library, drums, stands and other equipment. The move allows members to practice and perform in the same location, although they will continue to support local functions. Rehearsals are 7-9 p.m. Monday evenings at the church hall at 306 Northwest Blvd.

With provincial funding declining, com-petition from larger institutions and the young population in the area decreasing (the average age among COTR’s 2,500 students is 24), the college could simply cut services to keep functioning.

“Eventually, we’ll get smaller and less rel-evant, and clearly we don’t want to do that,” Walls said. “We want to continue to grow as a college.”

With a main campus in Cranbrook, and regional campuses in Creston, Fernie, Golden, Invermere, and Kimberley, building relation-ships is a significant part of maintaining awareness in the communities the college serves. Appreciation of the people, land and culture is among the four key values outlined in the plan.

There is room for the plan to grow, Walls said, noting that most strategic plans last less than five years. Changes will come as the plan is implemented and goals are reached.

“It’s not going to sit on a shelf,” he said. “We’re cascading it into all our divisions.”

Developing the strategic plan was a key mandate for Walls, who succeeded Dr. Nick Rubidge, president for 12 years, in 2013.

“It’s like having a map,” said Creston’s Dave Handy, who serves as COTR board chair. “You have to have somewhere to go.”

The plan, available to download at www.cotr.bc.ca/strategic-plan, has already been well received.

“I think the college is engaged,” he said. “I get that sense from the faculty I’ve gotten to know and from management.”

BY LORNE ECKERSLEYAdvance Staff

Children and youth are the focus of a new local effort to deliver mental health services in a more timely, co-ordinated manner.

A local action team (LAT) has been formed, and it includes family physi-cians, school counsellors, Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) staff, Child and Youth Mental Health clinicians, Lower Kootenay Band representatives and the RCMP.

Dr. Randy Grahn, who co-chairs the LAT with Prince Charles Secondary School (PCSS) counsellor Diane MacDonald-Sutcliffe, says he expects the membership to expand in the com-ing months.

How does it work?“We meet monthly, and together we

are working to improve conditions and coordination of child and youth mental health services, and to address specific mental health issues for children and youth in this region,” said Grahn.

Too often, Grahn said, parents and youth simply haven’t known where to go to find help with mental help issues, and professionals haven’t always been aware of the full range of services avail-able in our own community.

“Schools have been an essential part-ner in this initiative,” he said. “Local action teams are working to include youth and their parents as partners.”

The goal is clear: “To increase the num-ber of children, youth and their families receiving timely access to integrated men-tal health and substance use services and supports throughout the province.”

Creston is among the first communi-ties to form a local action team. Grahn credits the efforts of Dr. Tara Guthrie for paving the way. Guthrie, concerned about the need to bring mental health and sub-stance use services closer to those who need them, established regular weekly office hours at PCSS a couple of years ago.

“Dr. Guthrie saw the need and it helped raise our local awareness of the need to coordinate services,” Grahn said.

Early results for the program have been impressive. One community reduced waitlists for services from 140 to 11 in one year. A parent commented, “So much can be done locally. The grassroots movement is going to grow and grow and hopefully get into other communities… so that mental illness is no longer the HIV of 10, 20 years ago.”

“Government recognizes that it alone can’t fill all the gaps in medical care,” Grahn said. “This collaboration taps into what doctors and other providers

know about their communities and mental health needs.”

Leadership from the provincial gov-ernment has resulted in three ministries — health, children and family develop-ment, and education — working togeth-er to identify and tackle mental and health and substance use services for children and youth. Funding needs have also been addressed.

“We’ve never really seen such a con-certed effort to bring everyone involved together at the same table,” said Grahn. “It’s kind of epic in a way.”

In an effort to support the initiative, the Advance will be running a series of columns by Dr. David Smith over the next few months. Smith, an adolescent and adult psychiatrist, has created the series in his work with the Interior Health Authority.

“One of our goals is to roll out the ser-vice directory we have assembled (we will be doing this at an open house intro-duction of services event later this month), work on improving indigenous culture literacy among health care providers, and improve education, support, access, and coordination of C&YMH services in our valley,” Grahn said. “As Dr. Smith stress-es, if your child is experiencing a mental health concern, talk to your family doctor or contact the local MCFD office.”

BY LORNE ECKERSLEYAdvance Staff

There are two common approaches to the telling of history. A writer can gather and coalesce information to create an omniscient point of view, which can seem detached and impersonal. Or the stories of people can sim-

ply be collected and presented as told.It is the latter approach that former CBC jour-

nalists Mark Forsythe and Greg Dickson took in the very successful marking of the 100th anni-versary of the First World War last year.

Forsythe, from his position at the microphone of CBC’s popular noon show, BC Almanac (he recently retired rather than accept more cuts to his already decimated program), called on listen-ers to submit stories, artifacts and photos, which he and Dickson have masterfully woven into From the West Coast to the Western Front.

No dry historical tome, Western Front is a delight for anyone interested in our province’s his-tory and the role British Columbians played in what was then referred to simply as the Great War.

Contributions from listeners provide personal insights.

“My father started as a mucker at the Virginia Mine near Rossland,” BC Almanac listener Paulette Cave wrote. “Angus Davis prospected, staked claims and managed mines in the Slocan, Boundary country, the environs of Nelson and the East Kootenays. He played on the 1907 Sandon hockey team.

“In 1914, the thirty-four-year-old father returned to Nelson from a business trip. During the train journey, he made a decision about the recent outbreak of war. ‘Let the young fellas go first. If fighting lasts more than a couple of years, I will get involved.’

“ ‘Davis, we’ve enlisted you,’ said his pals as he stepped off the train. What could he do?

They headed to the Allan Hotel to celebrate.”

Personal history that comes from close to the ground. It makes for good reading and provides great insight to how the First World War

affected families, B.C. and Canada.Creston Valley residents are in

for a special treat on Saturday, when Forsythe and Dickson will appear at the Creston Valley Public Library at 2 p.m.

Does Prime Minister Stephen Harper truly believe that the public is going to be impressed with his gov-ernment’s out-of-left field introduc-tion of balanced budget legislation? Or are his party’s polling numbers so grim that he is merely taking the time-honoured approach to poison-ing the well for the next government? Either way, it’s a shallow, desperate act to look responsible by a govern-ment that has been anything but.

While Harper has always been one to talk the talk about fiscal responsibility, he has shown a remarkable inability to walk the walk. Seven consecutive deficit bud-gets would be proof enough, unless they had been designed to improve the country’s economy. They weren’t and they didn’t. Unless you can somehow make the argument that a government that has added, at a record pace, enormously to the fed-eral debt, has somehow found a new, magical way to solidify an economy that has been sluggish for its entire term, and shows no hope of changing anytime soon.

Forget the performance of Canada’s economy against other G-7 or G-20 nations. Our resource nation, under Harper’s leadership, has been hell-bent-for-leather focused on the exploitation and exportation of natural resources, especially energy, a luxury that many other developed nations don’t enjoy. And what have we got to show for the obsession? A country that has lagged in adopting alterna-tive energy technologies, has run up a debt that will take decades to grow out of, has lost credibility on the international stage, has wrested con-trol of the economy from the peo-

ple’s hands and put it into those of global corporations and has suc-ceeded in creating an aura of fear that has allowed it to remove rights and freedoms from Canadians who once took them for granted.

It’s a legacy that shouldn’t impress the shrinking working and middle classes but is guaranteed to thrill said corporations, whose powers have been solidified by a proliferation of trade agreements that continue to export jobs in favour of maximizing profits for companies and returns to their shareholders. If you, like most, hold any mutual fund shares you have likely benefited, but not at the rate that would justify all you have lost during the reign of this maniacal-ly anti-government government.

So really, what is wrong with bal-anced budget legislation? How about the fact that they don’t work? And why don’t they work? Because governments are not households, despite the oversimplified view that “conservative” governments have promoted since the Ronald Reagan days. All but three Canadian prov-inces have balanced budget legisla-tion and every one has run deficits despite them. Why? Because resource-dependent jurisdictions are susceptible to unpredictable fluctua-tions in income from those resources

when global prices change.One need look no further than

Alberta, whose residents have become so used to a low tax regimen (and a no-sales tax one) that they would rather see their government operate in a deficit than pay a larger tax bill. They don’t want cuts to ser-vices like highways, health care and education, so they accept deficits as a fact of life. Running a deficit, in less dramatic examples, is a way that governments can ease the impact of drops in private sector economic per-formance. Even Harper had to admit that when he grudgingly introduced infrastructure spending/investment programs to create employment for Canadian workers.

Woefully lacking in imagination, Harper remains focused on reduc-ing federal government control over the economy, so much so that he wants to make it difficult for his opponents to run deficits in future years, even though he has routinely done the same.

It’s just too, too shallow, just like the feds’ arguments in court right now about the abuses of the system undertaken by Conservative senator Mike Duffy. While the prosecution argues that Duffy and Pamela Wallin broke residency rules and played fast and loose with expense allow-ances, is there anyone alive who believes that this wasn’t all done with a nudge-nudge wink-wink agreement in return for their servic-es as fundraisers for the Conservatives? If you believe other-wise, Steve has some more anti-ter-rorism legislation designed to pro-tect your freedoms to sell you.

Recently, we learned that Lower Kootenay Band south of Creston will be taking over ownership of the popu-lar destination Ainsworth Hot Springs Resort. After 53 years in the same fam-ily, Norm and Joyce Mackie handed the torch back to indigenous people of the region. The Ktunaxa Nation’s rela-tionship with the hot springs spans hundreds of years, so it comes as won-derful news that Yaqan Nukiy, the Ktunaxa name of the Lower Kootenay Band community, will now be operat-ing this Kootenay gem.

It is an understatement to say that economic development and social justice are imperative for Aboriginal people in Canada. The centuries of injustice and poverty resulting from colonialism need to end, and we all have a part in making that happen.

Presently, the government of B.C. has not fulfilled its part well. You may have read how Premier Christy Clark pulled out of the existing treaty process at the eleventh hour without consult-ing anyone. She did this by reneging on the approval of George Abbot as the new chief treaty commissioner to replace outgoing Sophie Pierre.

Abbott, a former cabinet minister for Aboriginal relations and reconcil-iation, had the expertise and the full support of the other treaty partners. He had been working with Pierre for six months on a smooth transition process. To his surprise, just two weeks before he was to take over, he got a call that he was out.

Abbott was joined in his shock by

First Nations who had been spend-ing millions on the treaty process for over 20 years. When Pierre asked why this decision was so abruptly made, the Liberals offered this: It was a confidential cabinet decision.

After a week of questions, Christy Clark is now saying that she is end-ing the slow and difficult treaty pro-cess in favour of developing a new process and that this was her plan all along. She insists that her sudden choice was never about Abbott hav-ing challenged her for the BC Liberal Party leadership.

Whatever her reason for this deci-sion, she has no right to make it uni-laterally. While all agree that the current process is problematic, gov-ernment acting like it knows best is the same old colonial attitude that has caused centuries of injustice. Pierre points out, “You don't make positive change by unilaterally block-ing the chief commissioner appoint-ment. This does not create the right atmosphere for reconciliation.” Failing to work with First Nations partners in this decision is disre-

spectful in the extreme, unacceptable and just plain wrong.

This current breach of trust not only has negative impacts for First Nations, but it will have consequenc-es for all economic development in B.C. The Supreme Court of Canada’s June decision on Tsilhqot’in land title cemented Aboriginal people’s consti-tutional right to meaningful consul-tation and input into activities on their land base. This being the case, treaties are important to ensure social justice and economic well-being for generations of both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities. Now, no one seems to know what’s going to happen to get us there, except maybe Christy Clark and her recent-ly revealed secret committee of Liberal cabinet ministers.

We can do better than this in British Columbia. Regardless of which party is governing, the gov-ernment must be fully committed to working in partnership with First Nations. Mutual respect and collabo-ration must be the foundation of relationships and reconciliation. What we have recently seen from the Liberal government is not in that spirit, so let your part in reconcilia-tion be a call to Christy Clark to rebuild trust. She needs to come clean and work from a place of hon-esty. I hope she is up to the task.

In Portland, Ore., a senior person can buy an all-day transit pass for $2 and travel anywhere the train/bus/streetcar system goes. On the ticket it says: “Honored Citizen 1 Day”. Nice, wouldn’t you say? The part about being honoured.

Old age means different things to dif-ferent societies. The Chinese and Greeks revere their aging population. In First Nations cultures, elders are expected to pass down their knowledge and experi-ence to the youth. In Korea, families put on large parties for people turning 60 or 70; when a person reaches 70 the celebra-tion is known by a Korean word meaning “old and rare”. (I can hear certain family members chuckling over that one.)

But even in those cultures an increas-ing aging population is becoming a challenge. I read that Japan wants to take on more foreign workers to care for the elderly. China’s tradition of caring for aging parents is confronted with improved life expectancy and the bur-den on a generation that is the result of the one-child policy. Nursing homes are now a more accepted option.

Our western culture celebrates youth

to incredible lengths. Even older models in magazines are in “zoomer” form. Zoomer magazine (philosophy: embrace life with gusto) focuses its articles on people 45-70 — that’s quite a spread. Is old now really younger than we thought? The magazine will tell us how to travel with grandchildren, how to buy the appropriate wine glasses, how to manage personal finances, how to find the best beaches in the world, how to stay “hot”. How to do it all while we still can.

Nothing wrong with that, except that we are not all healthy and/or wealthy.

How we grow older has much to do with maintenance. A friend recently said that maintenance takes a lot of time out of a day — not just exercising a body so it can keep moving, but maintaining confi-dence, fighting against being humdrum, retaining a sense of esteem and relevance. It’s almost a catch-22 situation. We could work at something, even part time. Work brings a sense of purpose but we can’t work in the usual sense and, besides, we need the time we used to spend working for the much-needed maintenance.

The focus on youth becomes a prob-lem when it impinges on how seniors see themselves and how they are treated by younger people. It becomes a prob-lem when the privileges of age are ques-tioned and seniors are considered a drain on the system. After all, they are no longer the movers and shakers.

Grey hair can bring with it a creepy feeling of invisibility. I’ve heard this

expressed many times by both women and men. Brings out the fighting spirit, doesn’t it?

Scenario: I am waiting in an out-of-town dress store for the 20-year-old clerk to process my purchase. She hasn’t noticed me standing in front of the desk. She is paying attention instead to two young women in conversation about a boyfriend issue. Very important topic, I know. She’s not being intentionally rude. I believe she really does not see me; I have merged with the wrinkled garments on the racks (wrinkles being in fashion for clothing these days).

This is not an insurmountable problem. A sense of humour helps a lot. I thank my parents for passing on their admirable ability to laugh at themselves and find comedy in the everyday. As much as I’d like to reach into the granny bag and pull out an invective-laden jolt to hurl at this young woman, it isn’t going to happen.

For one thing the wit is waning, and at times like this words get balled up in ire and imagined slights. Being nasty only widens the generation gap. Being nasty brings regret and required apolo-gies all around — a state not worthy of an “honoured” citizen.

Age brings with it adaptability and, certainly, forbearance.

To the Editor(Re: “Creston Doesn’t Need Refugees”,

March 26 Advance)Michael Bunn’s letter made several

questionable claims about refugees and their effects on Creston. He seems to have two areas of complaint: humanitarianism and economy/jobs. Contrary to the asser-tions of Mr. Bunn, we state the following:

Related to jobs and the economy:Shopping online, out of town and

out of country is what is leading to empty stores in small towns every-where, including Creston.

Canada needs more young workers (not fewer) to contribute to taxes and pen-sions as our population is aging and our birth rate is falling. New immigrants are often happy to take any entry-level jobs, which Canadians are less willing to do.

Immigrants bring much needed skills to the Canadian workplace. Creston has three restaurants and other businesses run by immigrants from Asia. They support our town and hire local workers and new immigrants. Their presence boosts our economy.

Contrary to Mr. Bunn’s assertion, the majority of employees in fast food outlets, store clerks and realtors are not in their 70s.

Related to humanitarianism:We must give humanitarian help to

displaced people who are fleeing discrim-ination, violence, starvation and even death. All countries in the developed world do this. How can we not help?

Being compassionate is part of being a Canadian whether it is giving to our food bank or hospital or to other chari-ties. Through paying our taxes, we redistribute money to fund local needy and to fund Canadian foreign aid to poorer countries. Every political party in Canada supports these efforts. Every

developed country provides foreign aid to poor countries.

If a xenophobic attitude had been taken by the First Nations peoples on our ancestors’ arrival in North America, we could not have settled here, where they shared their knowledge of this land and helped our ancestors survive.

Sadly, when refugees are forced to leave the country they love and their relatives remain at home or settle in other countries all over the world, there is not much chance of ever seeing their families again.

Dave Budney and Beth TerriffCreston Refugee Committee

To the Editor:(Re: “Canada Doesn’t Need Refugees”,

March 26 Advance)During my time in your heavenly

valley I was a member of the Creston Refugee Committee and remain a sup-porter both in heart and with contribu-tions now that I live in Powell River.

Mr. Bunn’s letter displayed not only a lack of knowledge about refugees, but an attitude more reminiscent of the Ku Klux Klan — anger and hatred of a self-generated stereotype.

Anyone who has personal knowl-edge of these people, and who has worked with them, knows that they are fine people and worthy of respect.

I would suggest that Mr. Bunn actu-ally does something to alleviate the horrors of losing family, home, posses-sions and country by joining a refugee committee — maybe ours. Mr Bunn might remember that Jesus, Joseph and Mary were refugees, and see something of them in the fine people we serve. That something we see very clearly.

William Mitchell-BanksPowell River

To the Editor:I feel it’s important to bring this to

the attention of the town and hopefully get some more people involved, or at the very least, educated on the matter. The recently exposed and talked about Bill C-51 is a secret police bill, which is reckless, dangerous and ineffective. It turns CSIS into a police force with little oversight or accountability. If passed, the bill opens the door for violations of our Charter of Rights including censor-ship of free expression online and in tra-ditional media. Stephen Harper has admitted it’s flawed and ineffective, however the Harper government is still trying to push it through in record time.

The more Canadians learn about this bill, the less they like it. Originally 17 per cent opposed it; weeks later, after information began to spread about the bill, 50 per cent oppose. Over 110,000 people have protested across the coun-try in regard to the bill.

I would be extremely proud of the Advance if it were to address the bill in the paper and try to educate more peo-ple on the matter. It would be extreme-ly helpful to have a mention of David Wilks, as well. He is currently in favor of pushing the bill through as it’s dis-guised as an “anti-terror” law, which “protects Canadians against jihadi ter-rorists who seek to destroy the very principles that make Canada the best country in the world to live.” This bill cannot be passed as it violates our rights and freedoms, which truly make Canada the best country to live in. Please help draw attention to this issue.

I encourage Canadians to learn more about how we can work together to stop secret police Bill C-51 at StopC51.ca.

When Mark Forsythe announced his retirement from CBC Radio’s BC Almanac late last year, a tremor of sadness was felt across the province. After 30 years on public radio, Mark was more than just a voice on the air. More like a friend, a familiar face that reminds us of our place in the world, of home.

Comments posted on the CBC website story announcing the move reveal what an impact he had on folks’ lives:

“Back in my childhood home in BC. Listening to Mark Forsythe's last Christmas Card of the Air on #bcalm-anac. #gettingteary. #publicradio”

“Thanks, Mark, for being a constant voice in my life since childhood.”

“Thanks for all the great years, Mark. Should call you Mr. BC.”

“Mark, I will miss your lovely voice. I have enjoyed your intelli-gent presence in my home.”

While officially retired, Mark continues to write, together with friend and colleague Greg Dickson, produc-ing popular works exploring the little known and curious events and personalities in B.C. history.

His first book, British Columbia Almanac (Arsenal, 2001), has been described as “the equivalent of Peter Gzowski’s Morningside books on a provincial scale… A folksy mix of letters, favourite beers and books, salmon reci-pes, immigrant stories, neighborhoods, maps and photos from his travels.” Successive col-laborations have includ-ed a collection of stories about great and/or colourful British Columbians (such as Joe Coyle, inventor of the egg carton), a histo-ry of the B.C. gold rush, and their most recent work, From the West Coast to the Western Front, an exploration of B.C.’s involvement in the Great War.

Mark Forsythe and Greg Dickson will be at the library at 2 p.m. April 18 to talk about their latest collabora-tion and share stories and anecdotes from B.C.’s colourful past. Come by with your questions and stories and make it an after-noon to remember!

Speaking of history, some of you may know that Creston Valley Public Library has probably the best collection of books relating to Creston history available anywhere. Among the local items in stock are Tom Lymbery’s fascinating Gray Creek memoirs, a number of works by Creston Museum manager Tammy Hardwick, and even the

hard-to-find The Limits of Sanity, which details the grue-some, cannibalistic West Creston murders of 1970.

If you are heading out for a long drive this summer, you may want to check out Voices of the Pioneers, an 18-CD set of interviews with longtime res-idents and descendants of early settlers of Erickson, Creston, Canyon and Wynndel communities.

And, in case you are wondering how in the world to pronounce , we also maintain a collec-tion of Ktunaxa language learning materials, as well as stories, histo-ries, and biographies from the Ktunaxa Nation.

Have comments or questions about any aspect of the library? I’d love to hear from you. Call 250-428-4141, email [email protected] or come by in person.

Aaron Francis is the Chief Librarian at Creston Valley Public Library. He is currently reading Beneath Mazurka for Two Dead Men by Camilo Jose Cela.

April is a month when attention around the world turns to acknowledging the vital role of volunteers. We have mentioned many times how much we at the

Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors value our volunteers on a daily basis. Volunteer commitment and work accounts for the exis-tence and continuation of TAPS. Seniors that attend our Monday to Friday program do so to stay active and connect-ed and volunteers play a role in all aspects of what we do. We have a multigenerational program, and interacting with youth across ages is part of the volunteer experience.

One volunteer talked about her decision in being with our seniors as “making her heart sing.” She was introduced to TAPS when her mother participated and got so much out of it that she decided to volunteer to be part of it.

“I feel so welcome; it’s like belonging to a family,” she said.

Reflecting further, she talk-ed of an unexpected benefit.

“By getting to know more seniors and hearing individu-al stories, I now pay more

attention to the seniors I see in our community and I don’t take them for granted. It’s changed my world.”

She is also inspired by the genuineness and humility of

our elders.“It excites me to

be around them.”Currently about

40 volunteers par-ticipate in a variety of roles. Some of this group is repre-sented by the Krafty Kronys, who raise funds through their hand-

made items and pies in addi-tion to helping out at func-tions. Barry and Judy Freeman have been volun-teering to lead the weekly tai chi classes for many years. Jim Daniels is our ongoing bus maintenance angel. Until last year, Nicole Nilsson vol-unteered for the wellness program. Thanks to Ron Hurry, the wellness clinics and foot clinics run smooth-ly. We are looking for a nurse to resume our clinics. The book club benefits from the participation of Pat Tomasic from the library with Sharon Wesolowski and Lynette Collins. Joanna Wilson accompanies the choir and strummers for weekly music sessions.

Other jobs include assist-ing in the kitchen for food preparation, setting up and serving at lunches and spe-cial events, dishwashers after lunch, friendship work-ers, socializing, playing games, assisting during

activities in the aquatic pro-gram, helping with crafts and more. The most impor-tant volunteer job is to eat lunch with us and talk with the TAPS seniors.

What is the time commit-ment for volunteers? For this to work, we need some volun-teers to commit to a regular time and activity, and others can simply be on call. There is a two-hour volunteer training and orientation session, and additional educational oppor-tunities as they are planned. Volunteers can share their ideas and skills to enhance the program.

If you are considering vol-unteering you can pick up an application form at the TAPS office at Rotacrest Hall on 19th Avenue North. Our program volunteer activities take place on Monday to Friday between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Occasional opportunities arise for week-end community events that TAPS participates in.

On April 23, come join us during Arts and Culture Week, which is sponsored by the Community of Creston Arts Council for Sing With Us at St. Stephen’s Presbyterian Church on Northwest Boulevard. The TAPS choir and band will join with the Cresteramics Thursday drumming and sing-ing group for a community sing-along from 1:30-2:30 p.m.

Maureen Cameron is the com-munity liaison development co-ordinator for the Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors. For more information on TAPS, run by Valley Community Services, call 250-428-5585.

(NC) A recent study reveals that 90 per cent of Canadians think it’s important to give back, and over half volunteer their time, with almost 60 per cent volunteering at least once a week or more. Whether it’s a neighbour who volunteers at the local soup kitchen or the person you always see helping out at the hockey arena, we all know someone fi lled with genuine goodness who makes a difference in our community.Volunteers are vital to the social fabric of communities and their tireless efforts have a positive impact on facilities, services, organizations and, most importantly, people. www.newscanada.com

Road trip time! Yes, that was why there was a blizzard in Alberta; we were visiting children and new grandchildren through the central part of the province over Easter and it seems there is inclement weather whenever we head east. There were some really nice conditions, as well, so we won’t dwell on the snow, but it sure was nice to get back to the green of our valley.

My previous column talked about the laid back pace of a small town so we got the firsthand opportunity to offset that point of view with the pace of Alberta’s capital. We met one set of kids at a food court in a south Edmonton mall, which, incidentally, I hung around a bit as a younger man. Not the same place; while many stores were the same, the sheer volume of people was astounding — there were probably 500 people in just the eating area along with the equal amount of din that a group that size brings. This didn’t

cover the hordes that were wan-dering about the mall at 1:30 on a Thursday afternoon. For me, I was pretty much done when we went into the Lego Store (yes, a store that just sells Lego) and the Apple Store and equated the experience to riding a commuter train in Japan at rush hour.

On the training and life skill side, I was glad to see grandkids introduced to their respective

towns’ swimming pools at an early age. One had actually taken their first Starfish lesson set and the search was on for a proper personal flotation device (PFD) as the parents are into fishing and boating, much like we do around here (only better).

You can get PFDs or life-jackets. A Canadian approved standard lifejacket, when worn properly, is designed to turn

an unconscious person from face down to face up in the water, allow-ing them to breathe. The standard lifejacket is keyhole style and comes in two sizes — one for people who weigh over 40 kilograms (90 pounds), and one for people who weigh less than 40 kilograms — and must be orange, yellow or red, and have a whistle attached. Canadian approved PFDs are intended to keep you afloat in the water and were designed for use in recreation-al boating and are generally small-er, less bulky and more comfortable than lifejackets. They have less flo-

tation than lifejackets, and have limited turning capacity, but are available in a variety of styles and colours. You choose, just use.

At pools, we are also trained in victim recognition, to spot high risk or weaker swimmers and have certain classifications:

•Boppers are the ones who bounce up and down to keep their nose and mouth out of the water — OK until you hit the slope of the pool and gravity bounces you deeper.

•Floppers are toddlers that fall in shallow water but don’t have the coordination to pick themselves back up. (Small children have a different centre of gravity — their heads are heavier than their bodies and they are unable to raise them-selves up. As we age that weight transfers — for instance my midsection is significantly heavier than my head but I am working on it.)

•Hangers are the non-swimmers that move along

hanging on the edge — OK until you let go and are in over your head.

•Breath-holders are the ones that swim long distances under water or try to talk underwater or hold their breath for long periods placing themselves at risk of drowning. These are all part of the reasons children six and under must be within arms reach of an adult.

Neil Ostafichuk is the recre-ation supervisor at the Creston and District Community Complex.

full 14 per cent of participants report-ing all of the above symptoms, sleep dis-ruption is a topic many of us can relate to.

Do you find that you spend more of the night awake than asleep? Or perhaps you wake up in the morning feeling unre-freshed and as if you didn’t sleep at all. Why can’t you just fall asleep anywhere, anytime anymore? Want to become a super sleeper again? Make sure to come to this talk to find out what might be keep-ing you up, from sim-ple basics like your television, to hor-mones, and food reac-tions.

Sleep Blues is led by Masuch, a licensed naturopathic physician with a vibrant practice in Creston. Trained at the University of Victoria and the Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine from 2003-2012, she also holds additional certifications in phar-maceutical prescriptive authority, intravenous therapies, acupuncture, and Bowen therapy, allowing a wide range of treatment options for all types of health con-cerns. Masuch offers both primary care and adjunctive care with all other types of practitio-ners, including medical doctors. She is a licensed member in good standing with the College of Naturopathic Physicians of BC, the BC Naturopaths Associ-ation and the Canadian Association of Naturo-pathic Doctors.

Masuch believes that health is a per-sonal journey and as we are all individu-als, we require options for our health that are unique to each of us. She uses the principles of natu-ropathic medicine to help each person regain control over their own health and healthcare options, and allowing the body to heal using the help of natural thera-peutic options. If you are ready to feel empowered about your health, naturo-pathic medicine is the path for you.

Masuch will address sleep blues at the Creston Valley Public Library at 7 p.m. April 27. Admission is free. For more information, call the library at 250-428-4141.

Library ending health series with talk on sleepCRESTON VALLEYPUBLIC LIBRARY

The Creston Valley Public Library will put its Healthy You, Healthy Community speaker series to bed with the feature pre-sentation, Sleep Blues: Stop Tossing and Turning, with Dr. Kim Masuch.

According to a study conduct-ed by Université Laval research-

ers in 2011, sleep disorders affect 40 percent of adult Canadians. The research team surveyed a sample of 2,000 people across the country to draw a portrait of Canadians' sleep quality. Ranging from difficulty falling asleep, waking during the night for long periods, waking earlier than planned or dissatisfaction with sleep quality were all symptoms covered in the research. With a

Creston naturo-path Dr. Kim

Masuch will end the library’s

health speaker series on April 27.

CRESTON CONCERT SOCIETY

Two years ago, the Creston Concert Society was proud to present Ballet Kelowna to the valley. After a period of uncertainty at the continuation of the company, the society is pleased to be able to present it once again, on April 20.

Ballet Kelowna, founded in 2002, upholds the promise to “showcase excel-lent ballet, through performances that create lasting positive memories,” which are “fun, inspiring, enjoy-able and educational, ... include variety and innovation ... [and] showcase the best possible talents in dance.”

On April 20, Ballet Kelowna presents two world premieres and one company premiere from some of Canada’s leading contemporary ballet choreographers — James Kudelka, Shawn Hounsell and Simone Orlando — in Forward: A Mixed Repertory Programme, at the Prince Charles Theatre. The antici-pated program will also feature the intro-duction of Lee Dances — a presentation of excerpts from award-winning works creat-ed for the Clifford E. Lee Choreography Award, established in 1978 by the Banff Centre to encourage new creations by emerging Canadian choreographers.

“Forward: A Mixed Repertory Programme concludes an extraor-dinary season for Ballet Kelowna,” said Orlando, Ballet Kelowna’s artistic director and CEO. “This performance is a true celebration of the artistic talents of both our country and our company.”

She has danced with the National Ballet of Canada, Desrosiers Dance Theatre and with Ballet British Columbia for 13 years as one of the company’s most celebrated principal artists. She has per-formed worldwide and, as a choreogra-pher, has created numerous commis-sions as well as a short film for the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad. In addition to the Clifford E. Lee Award, Orlando also received a fellowship

ing company Coleman Lemieux & Compagnie. He is particularly esteemed for his unique interpreta-tions of classic works such as Swan Lake and Cinderella, among many original dance works, and is praised for his style and perspec-tive on eternal themes. In 2005, he was appointed an officer of the Order of Canada. Rich in technical inventiveness and expressive musicality,

Byrd Music will feature Kudelka’s signature mix of ingenious ballet partnering and lyrical interplay. It is beautifully set to a score by Vancouver’s own acclaimed compos-er Rodney Sharman, with four danc-ers performing a pas de deux in pairs, with each pair comprising one danc-er “manipulating” the other in the guise of a puppet master.

Ballet Kelowna returning with new worksfrom the New York Choreographic Institute, an affiliate with New York City Ballet.

“The artistry and physicality of Ballet Kelowna’s masterly dancers will be on full display in this mixed program that will undoubtedly showcase the immense possibilities that ballet has to offer,” she said.

In addition to a new work by Orlando, set to the music of Mozart, the evening will include the company premiere of Byrd Music, by revered Canadian chore-

ographer Kudelka. His award-win-ning dance and choreographic career spans more than four decades, and includes commis-sioned works for Toronto Dance Theatre, San Francisco Ballet and American Ballet Theatre. He has a long-term association with the National Ballet of Canada, includ-ing ten years as artistic director and currently as resident choreog-rapher. Since 2008 he has also been resident choreographer for Quebec-based international tour-

Also on the program is a new work, set to the music of George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in

Blue”, by former Royal Winnipeg Ballet (RWB) dancer and award-winning choreographer Hounsell. He first danced with Canada’s Royal Winnipeg Ballet in 1986, joining the company in 1990, performing many classical and contempo-rary roles in ballets such as The Nutcracker, Symphony No.1, Myth and A Darkness Between Us, and had the opportunity to dance in works cho-reographed by Hans Van Manen, Jiri Kylian, Rudi van Dantzig, Agnes De Mille and others. Hounsell also notably had several of his original choreographic works added to the RWB’s reper-toire and touring schedules, including Jigsaw in 1992 and Creaturehood in 2000.

Lastly, the world premiere of Lee Dances will showcase excerpts from three original works: Dedications (2009) by Boston Ballet alumni Heather Myers, Winter Journey (2006) by Orlando and Creaturehood (1996) by Hounsell. All works will highlight the athleticism and stunning tech-nique of Ballet Kelowna’s company artists, including Vancouver’s Jedidiah Duifhuis, who reprises his role in Byrd Music after performing in the 2011 world premiere with Vancouver’s Arts Umbrella Dance Company.

A Creston Curling Centre rink is representing the club at the B.C. Travellers Curling Club Championship in Richmond from

through Sunday. Skip Scott Peet, third Laddie Pavlis, second Doug Thompson and lead Bryan Smithson are competing after qualifying for the event in the Kootenay Club Challenge.

The Travelers Cup pits B.C.’s

best club teams against each other. The winner moves on to play the top team from the international side of the round-robin, which includes teams from Australia, New Zealand, China, Korea, U.S.A. and all of Canada. Those top two teams then battle it out

for the Pacific International Cup. The winner of the pro-vincial side of the Travellers Cup also will get the chance to play for the Canadian championship in Ottawa in November.

Pavlis recently found success at the 2015 Canadian Masters

Curling Champion-ship in Whitehorse. His team B.C. made it to the semi finals after sporting a 6-3 record before being elimi-nated and ultimately finishing in fourth place.

Cars. Trucks. Motorhomes. Motorcycles. Boats. Horse trailers.

Dan Johnson has seen them all. And he’s cleaned them all — he and his wife,

Joanne, operate Dan’s Grime to Shine Auto Detailing, north of Creston on Highway 3A.

After many years of auto detailing at car dealerships, the couple moved from Calgary in 2007, wanting to run a busi-

ness in what they described as a “family-mind-ed” community. They started the business in

2008 — in a heated shop allowing year-round detailing — and soon developed a clientele ranging far beyond the Kootenays, with regu-lars coming from as far away as Alberta.

“They see the jobs I’ve done when people they know have had cars done here,” said Dan, a native of Fredericton, N.B.

The key to proper detailing is time. Although Dan enjoyed working for dealer-ships, the turnaround was too quick — a good job can take all day.

“I like to take my time,” he said. “It’s not just a lick and a promise.”

He’s put his years of experience to good use, with owners of vintage automobiles trusting him to take good care of their babies.

“They put a lot of love into them,” he said.The process starts with a thorough vacu-

uming of the interior — the shampooer can’t have things like dog hair in it, so particularly furry vehicles can take two or three hours to properly vacuum.

After the vacuuming, Dan will clean out the air vents, and use a detail brush to clean crevices before shampooing the seats. The seats are then covered while he

tackles the doors, windows and dash.

“Every surface in the vehi-cle is done,” said Joanne.

Once the interior is clean — though not yet finished — Dan will use a clay bar on the exterior to remove tar and other road grime, then dry and wax the vehicle. Waxing, he said, should be done twice a year.

“That will protect the paint from the sun,” he said.

If the paint is dull or oxi-dized, Dan will cut polish the exterior, essentially removing the oxidized paint to expose a fresh new surface.

“A lot of times, it just brings new life back to the vehicle,” said Joanne.

Once the interior is dry, it’s given a final vacuum and a good dose of leather protec-tion, which keeps seats from drying out and cracking.

It isn’t always that straightforward, though. On particularly dirty vehicles, the ozone generator is a must, removing smells from sour milk to skunk.

And then there are the RCMP vehicles, which have a removable rear seat, making it easier to clean off... whatever’s gotten on them.

“I take it out and spray it down,” Dan said.

Those really dirty jobs are among the most satisfying. Customers will drop off their vehicles and wish Dan good luck — only to return to find their car looking as good as new.

“They say, ‘Maybe we won’t sell it now,’ ” he said with a laugh. “They just can’t get over it…

“I want the best results for the customer. What they’re paying for is a quality job.”

There surrounds us now the presence of the abundant love this beautiful woman had for her family and friends. Although our hearts are burdened at our loss, we are grateful to God for the many years and the many ways she shared herself with us. Filled with kindness, generosity and the desire for all things to be beautiful, Polly was a woman who was never critical, spoke no harsh words, ever gentle in her own conduct and treatment of others. She has passed, but her family takes great comfort in the many wonderful times spent with her.We believe we will meet again on that glorious day when Christ returns. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17.Love knows no boundaries and she will be ever loved and missed by those of us who had the pleasure of knowing and loving her.We fi nd peace in knowing that this is not the end but only the true beginning.Predeceased by her husband Myles in 2004, and survived by her children Chuck (Elaine), Terry (Sue), Judi (Don), Steve (Sharon); grandchildren Darin, Joanne, Shane, Stacey, Leah, Todd, Karyl Ann, and numerous great-grandchildren.

Celebration of Life Teafor Barb & Russ Browell

James Edwin Reber

Our family is sad to announce the passing of James Edwin Reber on April 9, 2015. Ed was born on February 2, 1924, in the charming English village of Pinner, County Middlesex, (Northwest London) to a Swiss banking family. With the oncoming of World War II, he was kept out of confl ict due to his talent for growing valuable food crops. His life path eventually took him to the farmlands of County Essex where he met his future wife of 66 years, Dorothy (Dot) Plumley. They married in 1948 with their fi rst daughter, Jennifer arriving in 1950. When a job offer came from one of the “Colonies”, they seized it and moved to our beautiful breadbasket Valley in 1952. Two more daughters joined the family (Sally, then Viv) here in Creston where roots were already growing deep. The locally-nicknamed “Pea Shed Ed” not only

managed Sunset Seed for Armstrong’s Heal family but also became heavily involved in the community. He was an active member of the Kiwanis club, assisted in the fundraising and building of the (previously) new recreation centre and acted for many years as Justice of the Peace. He thoroughly enjoyed his retirement working on the family homestead, golfi ng and especially vacationing annually in Hawaii. Thankfully, our cherished times together will be forever in our memories.He was husband to Dorothy, Father to Jennie, Sally and Vivienne, “Gramps” to Jason, Sharla, Melissa and Darby, and great-grandfather to Sophia and Bowen.Those who wish to pay their respects

are welcome to do so during teaon Saturday, May 9 from 2 to 4pm.

EAST KOOTENAY VOLLEYBALL CLUB

Older, bigger and harder-hit-ting opponents were no match for the Avalanche under-15 boys’ team, which won the Rich Wayling Memorial Volleyball Tournament in Cranbrook on April 4.

The East Kootenay Volleyball Club reps rallied from a set down to beat Lethbridge Volleyball Club 19-25, 25-18, 15-10 in a thrilling best-of-three champion-ship match to claim the Kootenay Cup at Parkland Middle School.

The U15 Avalanche, a branch of the Cranbrook-based EKVC, is coached by Mike Nelson of Creston and features Creston players Mark Armstrong, Davis Nelson and Marcus Bell, all of whom played integral roles in the two-day tournament.

Armstrong is the starting set-ter, Davis Nelson the main power hitter and Bell a back-row spe-cialist who served out the last sets of both the final and another dramatic comeback in the semifi-nal against the EKVC U16 team.

“We played everyone and had important contributions from each player,” said Mike Nelson, who regularly rotated his three bench players on to the court throughout all eight matches. “It was a team win.”

It wasn’t necessarily an expected triumph given that his was the only U15 entry in the six-

SubmittedMarcus Bell, Mark Armstrong and Davis Nelson of Creston (from left) display the gold-medal spoils of their victory in the Rich Wayling Memorial Volleyball Tournament in Cranbrook.

Creston-based EKVC wins Kootenay Cup

team field, which also featured U16 clubs from Spokane and Vulcan, Alta., plus the EKVC’s U18 reps (whose results didn’t count in the official standings because of the age difference).

“Although I’m aware we were out-sized and -skilled, we have a group of confident kids that believe they can beat anyone,” said the coach. “We are stressing the importance of hard work and also that defence and ball control are what wins matches.”

Lethbridge power hitters dominated the first set but the

Avalanche produced a big pushback in the second to take leads of 13-4 and 21-6 before hanging on.

They fell behind 4-1 early in the decisive third set but rallied to lead 8-4 at the changeover, then found themselves dead-locked at 9-9 before pulling away in the clutch, with Bell serving out the last two points.

“We were able to out-defend and our ball control was excel-lent in those final two sets,” Mike Nelson said. “That was the dif-ference. Both teams had excellent

setters, they were far stronger attackers, but we served and passed better during the match.

“This will undoubtedly pro-vide us with confidence heading into provincials.”

Those provincials are the Alberta championships May 2-3 in Calgary, where the team will return two weeks later for the national club championships at the University of Calgary.

The Avalanche downed the EKVC U16 boys 19-25, 25-12, 15-10 in a nail-biting semifinal that saw the eventual winners

squander a 5-0 third-set lead before staging a late rally of their own. The U16s led 8-6 at the changeover but were tied 10-10 when Bell, having recently come off the bench, served out the final five points.

As they would do in the final, the Avalanche came back strong-ly after the opening set loss, win-ning the first seven points of the second set on serve.

Earlier in the day they posted a 25-20, 25-16 quarterfinal victory over a game group from Vulcan that had finished last in the pre-liminary round the day before, only to nearly upset Lethbridge in a 2-1 defeat to start the playoffs.

The Avalanche posted a hard-fought 4-1 match record on day 1 to finish second to Lethbridge in the round-robin, edging Vulcan 15-25, 25-14, 15-6, the EKVC U16s 14-25, 25-18, 15-8 and Spokane 26-24, 26-24, after having trailed the Americans 23-16 in the open-ing set.

The U15s were the only team to take a set off of otherwise unbeaten Lethbridge in a 22-25, 25-18, 15-11 first-round loss.

They didn’t roll over for the U18s in a 25-16, 25-14 defeat that was credited as a 2-0 U15 victory in the official standings, as was the case for all the older team’s opponents.

The Avalanche also includes three players from Cranbrook and three from Fernie.

Your smiling face is etched upon my mind so fresh and clear, It’s memories of your life and love, that I will now hold dear. Your kind and gentle caring ways were given with such love, And now I know that you will be in Heaven up above.

When I was young and growing up, I always had you there To shower me with love and laughter, through all the times we shared. We sang our songs, we took our trips, oh we had such fun! It’s hard to know that suddenly, those days are gone and done.

I held your hand, I kissed your brow, I told you “I love you”, It broke my heart to say goodbye, whatever will I do? You are at peace and in God’s care, I totally accept, And in my heart you will live on, where memories are kept.

FOOTLIGHTERS THEATRE SOCIETY

Days after Footlighters Theatre Society’s 20th season concludes with this weekend’s

production of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel, the troupe will be back at it, hold-ing auditions at 7 p.m. April 22 at the Snoring Sasquatch for The Great Ice Cream

Scheme, which opens the 21st season in July.Directed by Jason Smith, the comedy

will offer a modern twist on the classic melodrama format.

“We always add some pop culture refer-ences and jokes, as well as songs, to add to the fun,” said Smith, who previously direct-ed Headed South from the Great White North in

2013, and co-wrote Almost Golden, which won best production at the Kootenay Zone fes-tival, Centre Stage, held in Creston last year.

The play centres around Pop Sicle’s Ice Cream Parlour, where Pop serves ice cream made with a secret recipe known only to him, his sister Nana Peel and his adopted son Robin Baskins.

Things get sticky when cold-hearted vil-lain I.C. Custard decides to steal Pop’s recipe. He hires Parfait Deluxe, an ex-chorus girl and total klutz, to steal the recipe from Robin — but his heart already belongs to new waitress Marsha Mallow.

The cast requires six men and five women, along with optional extras. Auditions will be by cold readings from the script, as well as briefly singing. While not all performers will have to sing solo in the performance, leading actors will likely take part in a song or two.

“This type of come-dy leaves a lot of room for extra material, so everyone involved will be able to bring a lot of their own ideas to the production,” said Smith.

For more informa-tion, contact Jason Smith at 250-428-9553.

The production of The Great Ice Cream Scheme will run July 9-11, kicking off a sea-son currently sched-uled to include a revival of Shakespeare in the Park — return-ing after a five-year absence — in August, and two other plays in December and March.
