Various community groups, residents, business owners, and stakeholders came together to look at all sides, pros, cons, and possibilities associated with one issue—mobile vending in Golden.
The Town of Golden, Tourism Golden, Gold-en Area Initiatives and the Kicking Horse Coun-try Chamber of Commerce welcomed more than 25 people to a Let’s Do Coffee event on Oct. 30 to discuss mobile vending—not only if it is something the town wants, but also what that picture would
look like.“The Town has afforded everyone an active role
in public policy,” said Lori Baxendale, president of the Chamber.
“I hope we can do this again for a number of issues,” said Jon Wilsgard, manager of corporate affairs for the Town of Golden.
Right now mobile vending is not permitted in Golden, either on public or private property. (Big Cones Ice Cream, located on private property near the Petro Canada, was grandfathered in).
The issue is being looked at by the Town after it received some attention this summer when Gold-
en Fries, a mobile food vendor who tried to set up in Golden this summer, was unable to do so. They remained in town, and are now working out of the Golden Arena for the winter.
Golden Fries was only able to set up at the Farm-ers’ Market (an exception within the Town policy), or several kilometres east on Highway 1.
There was a very wide range of opinions expressed. There were some who were excited about the prospect of mobile vendors coming to town, bringing in new products, cuisine, and eco-nomic opportunities.

We all know that Gold-en is one of the best places in the world for winter sports enthusi-asts, and one of Canada's largest sporting goods retailers agrees.
Sport Chek picked Golden as the location
for their latest com-mercial entitled "Let it Snow." The crew was in town a few weeks back with four very special guests.
"What we did for this commercial is we shot four different olym-pians," said Brendon Arnold, public relations specialist for FGL Sports
Ltd, the parent company of Sport Chek.
"The concept is what winter athletes do to get ready for winter. So we captured four high level athletes preparing for the first snowfall."
The commercial fea-tures Canadian ath-letes Chris Del Bosco, the reigning Ski Cross X Games and World Champion, Noah Bow-man, a Ski Half-pipe 2012 X Games and World Cup Gold Medal-ist, Meaghan Mikkelson, a Gold Medalist with the 2010 Women's Olym-pic Hockey Team, and Jon Montgomery, a 2010 Olympic Skeleton Gold Medalist.
The commercial crew, who was here for three days, shot at several dif-ferent locations around town including the Gold-en Curling Rink, Keith King Memorial Park, the Mount 7 Rec Plex, and Kicking Horse Moun-tain Resort.
"Golden was the per-fect location for this shoot... You have so much to offer for winter athletes," said Arnold.
The commercial hap-pened to be filming when Golden had a bit of snow on the ground, and the cast was thrilled to be here for it.
"I was stoked to be a part of the Sport Chek shoot in beautiful Gold-en," said Del Bosco. "I've never been there in the fall, and snow on the surrounding peaks
signaled the season was right around the cor-ner. I train hard all sum-mer but the sight of snow made me realize a few more interval workouts could do me some good. Man I love box jumps!"
Montgomery had an exciting, and also intim-ate experience with his part of the shoot at Kick-ing Horse Mountain Resort.
"It was pretty cool to be all alone on top of a mountain in Golden with a camera and heli-copter off in the dis-tance filming you. Felt like I was shooting a rock video from the '80s...on account I was wearing
spandex," said Mont-gomery.
The commercial is already completed, and has been scheduled to air starting Monday Nov. 5. Sport Chek rep-resentatives were unsure which specific networks will be carrying the com-mercial, but also said that it will be "quite wide spread."
So keep your eyes open when you're watching TV for images of Gold-en, or check out www.sportchek.ca. All com-mercials are archived there. "Let it Snow" was not posted at the time of publication, but will be in the near future.

The provincial government has a new plan to improve fire code compliance for high-risk facilities across British Columbia.
Building owners and employers are responsible for fire code compliance in British Columbia, but in the interest of long-term safety for workers, the govern-ment will now be asking high-risk facility owners to provide documentation of fire code compliance.
"This is in response to a lot of the mill fires that have happened in the province in the past year," said Golden Fire Chief Ken McClure. "This is an additional onus put on high-hazard industry locations."
In Golden there are four such high-haz-ard industry locations says McClure.
In the course of regularly scheduled and/or targeted inspections, WorkSafeBC will be requesting all building owners to provide documentation related to fire code compli-
ance. The BC Safety Authority (BCSA) will request documentation of fire code compli-ance when performing on-site inspections of regulated equipment installation.
Under the Fire Services Act, municipal-ities are assigned responsibility for Fire Code inspections. The Golden Fire Depart-ment has, and will continue to conduct these inspections.
To assist, Ministers Pat Bell (Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training) and Shir-ley Bond (Minister of Justice and Attorney General) introduced the creation of the Fire Inspection and Prevention Initiative (FIPI). Through FIPI, WorkSafeBC will invest $1 million in funding over two years to reduce the risk fire presents to workers in industrial operations and to improve com-pliance.
FIPI will improve awareness of employ-ers' fire safety obligations and education about the BC Fire Code standards. It will also increase co-operation and communica-tion between WorkSafeBC, BCSA inspect-
ors and the Office of the Fire Commission-er (OFC).
"The Fire Services Act requires that we respond to reports of non-complance of the Fire Code. With the creation of FIPI, there will be better information sharing that will allow us to continue to respond and impose penalties or remedies as necessary. We are hopeful that companies take proactive action to comply and mitigate these safety risks, but if it becomes clear that punitive action is necessary, the OFC can and will impose it," said Kelly Gilday, debuty B.C. fire commissioner.
"It's going to be an interesting tool, and I'm hopeful that it will be effective," said McClure.
The B.C. government expects these enhanced fire code compliance efforts will improve health and safety for work-ers in B.C. and provide more clarity about the accountability of industrial owners and operators and how they must meet BC Fire Code standards.

Others were less than thrilled about the idea, sug-gesting that these vendors would be taking business away from local storefront business owners who pay property taxes, and that there is not a large enough population base support to both mobile and trad-itional businesses.
The largest group was in the middle, receptive to the prospect of mobile vending, but still wanting to make sure these vendors paid fair share (in business licenses and fees), and that it was properly regulat-ed.
Several people suggested that it could bring in tourism, turning Golden into a “food destina-tion.” It could bring people downtown, and keep them outside and walking around. It was also sug-gested that these vendors could double as informa-tion stands, carrying pamphlets and maps of Gold-en attractions.
The possibility of new and innovative prod-
ucts was a plus, as some people noted that with a low startup cost (lower than a storefront business), entrepreneurs may be willing to take some bigger risks with their creations.
It was also noted that these vendors would come into town, already having a job. And if things go well, they may one day expand into a storefront.
However, attendees wanted to make sure the Town took several factors into consideration when regulating the practice, including: parking, litter, hours of operation, duration of license, duration in a single location, security and vandalism, num-ber of licenses issued, aesthetic standards, as well as penalties for non-compliance.
Several other municipalities already have mobile vending policies in place that dictate where vend-ors can set up, how long they can stay, and how much they pay. Invermere, for example, issues four licenses to mobile vendors (the town has four specific sites where they may set up), and they pay a “rent” of $400 a month.

The RCMP in Golden have dealt with 48 files in a one week period.
Domestic Assault
In two separate instances RCMP were called out to inves-tigate what turned out to be inci-dents where domestic assault charges were laid. One person in each incident was arrested and later released on conditions.
Break-ins
On Oct. 30 there were two break and entries in Golden.
Someone cut a hole in a fence of a property on Kicking Horse Drive near 9th Street North. They then proceeded to pry open a door of a work trailer. In total $5,000 in tools was taken during the robbery. The theft happened between 4:30 p.m on Oct. 29 and 9:30 a.m. on Oct. 30.
Police are investigating and if anyone has any information they are asked to call 250-344-2221.
A second break and entry hap-pened in a residence on 8th
Avenue North at 2:27 in the after-noon. Some Tylenol 3 were stolen along with two hunting knives.
Police continue to investigate and if anyone has any informa-tion they are asked to call 250-344-2221.
Airsoft gun shooting
On Halloween at approximately 8:30 p.m. two youths were walk-ing home near Alexander Court where they were shot with what is suspected to be airsoft guns.
The youth were not serious-ly injured but did receive bruises on their legs from the attack. The shots may have originated from a dark pickup truck.
Accidents in Golden
There were three vehicle acci-dents recently in Golden. One accident happened on Airport Road when a pickup truck rolled over.
No one was seriously injured in any of the accidents however RCMP would like to remind people to make sure they wear seat belts when they are in a vehicle.

Once again people are walking around, wearing their poppies to remember not only the veterans of the past but also those soldiers who serve in the armed forces today.
In many parts of Canada the day is a statutory holi-day first, and a day to remem-ber the sacrifices of the past second. People have every right to enjoy their days off when they come, however, this is one of those occasions where we have the chance to build off of a day and do more for those people who have earned our support.
You do not have to search hard, especially in an online world, to see the cost of the conflicts Canadians have been, and are currently still involved in.
But it is no longer just about the battles the soldiers face in a combat zone. We are in a crisis of time to hold onto the stories of the past. I have been lucky in university, time spent overseas, and working in this industry, to have heard many stories from veterans of many conflicts.
Holding on to these stor-ies should be something of a
mission for us, because once those who have served are gone, the stories will also be gone forever.
This may not seem like con-cern for many people but it should be. History is of great importance moving forward into the future.
The stories of the past are part of the fabric that helped build the country in which we live.
Watching a show online or on television is great, but sitting down with someone is a different experience all together.
In the almost 100 years since the start of the First World War, many Canadians have made the ultimate sacri-fice on the field of battle.
The numbers are stagger-ing when you take the time to think about them. So many soldiers have lost their lives, not to mention those who came home with both physic-al and mental battle scars.
For those who come home with these wounds, more has to be done. The soldiers’ struggles are not just to sur-vive but also for some, how to come home and continue on.
Around this time of year
we hear the occasional story of what life has been like for those who come home but after Nov. 11, silence will once again return for another year. People will once again move on to Christmas and the stories of Santa coming to town.
But who is being naughty by acting this way.
Citizens and the govern-ment need to work year round, and not just come out for a day in support of these warriors.
The stories are there of men and women who are working hard to make sure all of the soldiers and their fam-ilies receive the support they desperately need.
As research and technol-ogy advances, hope above all else must be there to see this adjustment back to their pre battle lives.
This is not the argument of whether you believe in why the men and women of the Canadian Armed Services are involved in conflicts or peace keeping duties.
That is a moral issue with which each person would have their own opinion.
If you do not believe in the
cause then you have the abil-ity to take that battle to to your local Members of Parliament and stress the need to bring the soldiers home. If the war in Afghanistan is one you do not think Canada should be involved in, then step up to have your voices heard. This does not mean you attack the soldiers who follow orders.
This is about remembering the past, hoping that at some point people learn from it, and above all else, looking after those who serve us both on Canadian soil but also when they are needed overseas.
Lest we forget...all year long.

It’s so darn trendy there’s even a TV show about it. But do we want it here in Gold-en?
Various groups, stake-holders, and regular cit-izens got together last week to discuss the possibility of changing the mobile vend-ing regulations in town.
As it stands now, there is no mobile vending allowed in Golden on public land, or private property. The two exceptions being Big Cones ice cream stand (who was grandfathered in), and vend-ing at the Farmers’ Markets.
There is no shortage of factors to consider. Will it take away from local, established business? Is there a fair fee and busi-ness licensing structure? Will a mobile vending scene be effective in bringing in tourists, or will the local population be enough to support the new business?
Some local business owners (who either rent or own their store fronts) view it as unfair competition because these vend-ors will not be paying local property taxes.
I’m not going to pretend that this is a simple, black and white issue. But after covering two elections in Golden I have found that one common theme keeps popping up over and over again. Economic Development.
I have heard countless residents ask local politicians in one form or another how they are going to help stimulate the local economy.
The Golden economy is never going to grow if the town is turning away business. And whether you view it as legitimate, untraditional, unorthodox, innovative or annoying, mobile vending is business.
I understand why the storefront business owners are so frus-trated. They have a large overhead, and are struggling to keep their businesses going in a tough economic climate.
But these prospective mobile vendors are not choosing the “cheap” way of doing business because it’s easier. They are choosing it because it is the only option they can afford.
If the town does not allow them to set up their trucks and sell on the street, it won’t motivate them to take the leap and open a storefront business. They will simply leave, and relocate to a community that wants them.
Golden gains nothing.The Fry Guys, owners of Golden’s struggling mobile vend-
ing outfit Golden Fries, have had a rough go of it this past sum-mer. And it is only their love of this community that has kept them here.
They set up in town the only time they were permitted to, at the Farmers’ Market, and spent the rest of their time tucked away on the side of Highway 1, east of Golden.
More accommodating communities have expressed inter-est in our Fry Guys, and next season they might steal them away.
Do we want this to happen?There are a lot of people in town who have become addicted
to their signature poutine, and would be sad to see them go.Policies can always be revisited and adapted. So if the
mobile vending venture turns out to be a bad one, the Town can always ammend the rules (although it may take time).
So what do we have to lose in trying?
The Golden Star encourages people to write Letters to the Editor on issues that impact our community. We ask that letters

Star EDITORIAL AND OPINION
Chances are you know someone with type 2 diabetes. That someone may even be you. Currently more than 3 million Canadians have type 2 diabetes. That number is expected to grow to just under 4 million by 2018. Genetics and lifestyle play a large role in the develop-ment of this serious health condition. Diabetes increases your risk of heart disease, kidney fail-ure, blindness, nerve damage, and even erect-ile dysfunction.
Making a few lifestyle changes can dramat-ically lower the chances of developing type 2 diabetes. Take these three important steps to reduce your risk.
Get moving. Aim for 30 minutes of activity a day. Getting active doesn’t have to mean start-ing an exercise class or joining a gym. Choose
activities that you enjoy or ones that you can do as a family - rake leaves, walk your kids to school, go for a bike ride after supper, or dance the night away!
Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight around the belly area is a risk factor for dia-betes. Even a modest amount of weight loss can reduce your risk. Speak with your health care professional about a healthy weight loss goal and ways to achieve it.
Eat well. Have foods from at least three of the four food groups at each meal. Fill half your plate at supper with vegetables, a quar-ter with a protein (from the meat and alterna-tives group) and the other quarter with a starch (from the grain products group). Drink low-fat milk and choose low-fat yogurt or cheese.
Keep your portions reasonable and go easy on high-fat spreads, dips, and sauces. Aim for two servings of fish each week and choose low fat meats like extra lean beef, turkey, and skinless chicken.
Try cooking with beans, lentils, and tofu. These meat alternatives are inexpensive and have many health benefits. Lastly, cut out sugary drinks like soda. Sugary drinks provide extra calories and do not fill you up. For more great tips check out Eating Well with Can-ada’s Food Guide at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/index-eng.php. It is a great resource and it’s available online or at your local health unit.
Eating healthy does require some basic cooking skills. If you would like to learn how to
cook healthy, budget-friendly meals consider participating in a Food Skills for Families pro-gram. Food Skills for Families is a free hands-on program that makes healthy eating, shop-ping, and cooking easy, quick, and fun. To find out if there is a program near you, check with your local friendship centre, community cen-tre, or other organizations that offer programs for parents or seniors. For more information visit: http://www.foodskillsforfamilies.ca or call the Canadian Diabetes Association at 1 604 732-1331, extension 248.

War Amps Operation
Dear Editor,
I am a member of The War Amps Operation Legacy, which consists of young members and graduates of the Child Amputee (CHAMP) Pro-gram who are dedicated to preserving and com-memorating Canada’s military heritage by teach-ing younger generations about our nation’s war-time history.
I have had the privilege to learn about Canada’s military heritage and also know what it is like to live without a limb – a strong bond that I share with war amputee veterans. CHAMP was started by war amputee veterans and I want to give back to those who have given me so much.
It’s important to remember our veterans for countless reasons. The individuals that left their families, homes and lives behind to fight for us and our country deserve more than just remem-brance. We should be thankful every day for what they went through for us. The bravery, strength and courage it took is not something easily found. I give all my respect to our war veterans.
I encourage all of you to learn more about Can-ada’s history by means of The War Amps Mil-itary Heritage Series documentaries, which can be ordered at waramps.ca.
Sincerely, Kendra Blakely, Operation Legacy Member, Revelstoke, BC
Gas Pains It has always amazed me that the
price of gas in Golden is virtually the highest in the province, even the low-er mainland areas that have their own local taxes built in to the price are cheaper at 119.9. We are told it is trans-portation costs?
That makes no sense whatsoever when communities far off the Trans Canada highway have lower prices. They also claim there is no price collu-sion yet every station in town is priced at 131.9 today, what an amazing coinci-dence.
I see the price in Edmonton just
dropped to 102.9 and Calgary is some-where around 1.06. Even a tourist resort town like Banff is much lower at 112.9. I suspect if they tried to charge more people would just drive to Canmore as they are priced at 112.9 as well.
I assume it makes a great impression on tourists as well. I am in no way blam-ing the local operators of gas stations as the prices are 100 per cent dictated to them by head office.
In real estate they claim location. location, location, it seems this would apply to gas stations as well.

There was a stinger in last week’s Golden Star accusing a business of costing someone $1,000 on their taxes. The business would like to make it clear that they didn’t cost anyone $1,000.

Pat Holland has spent her entire life living in Golden and has seen the small back country town become what it is today.
Holland's father came to Golden in 1939 where he would eventually meet her mother.
"My mother’s father was Edward Feuz. He was one of the Swiss Guides who lived up in the Swiss Village for a number of years," she said.
As for what her life was like, Hol-land said she had a simple but good childhood.
"It was just normal to me. I guess I never really thought too much about it. By the time I was old enough to remember a lot, my grandpa was retired," she said. "It was great. We could do just about anything. It was small. I can remember all of the wood sidewalks. It was a quiet little town."
Her father was a part of the group that worked to get the town incorpor-ated back in 1958. He then went on to be mayor for the first 10 years after the town became incorporated.
"The growth of the town over the years has been interesting to watch. Down around where Alexander Park Elementary is, used to be all trees. There was no main strip in town at
all," she said.Another thing which Holland
remembers is being able to ride her bike down from the Swiss Village. One time in particular stood out in her memory.
"I can remember when I got on my tricycle and rode home. You could not do that these days because back then there was no traffic like today," she said.
Things have also changed regarding what children can and can-not do in Golden these days, accord-ing to Holland.
"Even on Halloween everyone takes their kids around but when we had our kids they went with friends and we did not worry about it."
One of the treats she had as a child was taking the train back and forth to Calgary.
"We would go with my mom and go shopping. Dad stayed at home to work. It was fun to go to the city and stay in a hotel downtown. Back then there were no malls," she said.
The family did take a couple of trips together including one where they made the very long journey by car to Vancouver.
"It was eight hours to Revelstoke and it was a gravel road. It was just potholes and I remember my mother saying 'I am never going on this road
again.' We didn't go that way again unless it was by train."
As Holland got older she worked
for her father in the drugstore which used to be at the current Bacchus Bookstore location.
"I had to do what I was told. When I first started I was the chief duster," she said.

Young people in Gold-en once again have a home where they can learn the finer points of dancing.
The Golden Dance Academy has opened its doors, and according to dance instructor Tawni Kwiatek, students have been having fun every since.
"Things have been going good. We current-ly have around 45 stu-dents taking part in class-es," she said.
According to Kwi-atek, when the previ-ous dance studio closed its doors many students were upset over losing the ability to train.
"I think that after the old studio closed there were a lot of us who were sad to see it end. I know
my mother and some of the senior girls’ mothers wanted us to get some-thing going so they could keep dancing," said Kwi-atek.
"There were also a lot of younger kids who
were really upset and did not know what was going on."
Kwiatek started dan-cing when she was five and has never looked back.
"Back then it was all about fun and now I really like teaching and going to competitions."
The academy has classes for young stu-dents, right up to the older students (up to 16 and 17 years old) who take part in a number of competitions.
The newer students start learning jazz and ballet along with begin-ning techniques.
"We want them to have fun while learning about timing and music. Fun is the most important aspect," Kwiatek said.
Dancing is also a great way to get in a good workout according to the instructor.
"It is fun, it is good exercise and I know
I have made a family with all my dancers and friends. It is also good for team building."
For people who would like to learn more they can come by the acad-emy after 4 p.m. between Monday and Thursday, or call Deb at (250) 344-5560.

This turned my thoughts to the tread on my tires and the question of how much tread is needed to stop and steer properly on wet roads. We know that tires are considered to be worn out at 1.5 mm or 2/32nds of an inch unless they are winter tires, in which case the limit is 3 mm or 4/32nds of an inch of tread depth. Is that really enough?
No doubt this morning was an intensely exciting one for a driver that I passed by this morning. She had obviously done some panicked steering on the rain soaked highway judging from the marks in the median and the amount of grass and mud in the fast lane. Others had already stopped to help and aside from being stuck in the median she and her vehicle appeared relatively unharmed.
It appears that if you intend to drive on wet roads 4 mm may be the minimum tread depth needed to stop and steer effectively. Without at least this much tread the tire cannot move water away from the tread fast enough to maintain adequate traction. To drive with less tread is not illegal until you reach the legislated minimums, but it may not be safe. One last thought and that is to buy a decent tire guage to keep in your glovebox. Use it every couple of weeks before you start out and make sure that the tires are inflated to the specifications on your vehicle’s tire placard. Proper inflation helps tread do its part to prevent hydroplaning. The author is a retired constable with many years of traffic law enforcement experience.

My last article described our School Goals for this year, and I mentioned that I would talk about Descrip-tive Feedback in a future article. This is it! Teachers at GSS have been engaged in professional develop-ment about the topic of assessment over the past sever-al years. One of the areas we have studied is formative assessment and one major component of this is descrip-tive feedback.
Traditionally, students receive marks for their work to let them know how they did on a particular assign-ment. This information is recorded and becomes part of their overall grade at the end of a term or year. This is effective in letting students and parents know what the student has achieved and whether the student has achieved enough to be able to progress to the next grade level.
The purpose of descriptive feedback is to let the stu-dents know how they are doing in relation to the learn-ing target, and lets them know how to take the next step to move them towards the target.
This happens while the learning is still going on so that students can strive to improve and do their best. For example, an English teacher may assign a three paragraph story to a class of Grade 8 students. After the pre-writing activities have occurred, the students would prepare a draft of the story. The teacher would read through the stories and provide verbal or written comments that will help the students move forward in their writing. The students would then have a chance to revise their stories based on the feedback. After revisions and editing, the final papers would then be
handed in. This process assists students learn to write more
effectively. Descriptive feedback can be given in all sub-ject areas in order to help students move closer towards the learning target.
Teachers provide feedback relative to three questions students ask about their learning:
“Where am I going?” “How am I going to get there?” “Where to next?”Students are encouraged to self-assess as well as peer-
assess and provide feedback relative to their learning in addition to the teacher’s descriptive feedback. We have seen promising results with these processes at GSS.
Research has shown that descriptive feedback can have a huge impact on student learning. In his book, Visible Learning for Teachers, Hattie (2012) states that “when formative practices [descriptive feedback] are integrated into the minute-to-minute and day-by-day classroom activities of teachers, substantial increases in student achievement – of the order of a 70 to 80 per cent increase in the speed of learning – are possible.”
The critical aspect of descriptive feedback is that it is given during the learning process when the students have a chance to use it and before the student receives marks for their work. Once students receive a mark, it signals the end of their learning. Descriptive feed-back will continue to be a focus at GSS this year so that students have the best opportunities to improve their learning.
If you are interested in reading our latest newsletter, please visit our website and look under the ‘News-letters’ tab at www.sd6bc.ca/gss. You will find lots of information and pictures of activities at GSS.

They went with songs to the battle, they were young. Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncount-ed, They fell with their faces to the foe.
The number of men who volunteered for mil-itary service in the two great wars, who had ties to Golden and its sur-rounding communities is staggering. Over 400 men went enlisted.
Many died! Of the ones who died at least 24 were never returned back to the valley but rather lay in cemeter-ies scattered around the world. To help pay hon-our to their memory
here they are and their final resting places.

Public Notice Changes Coming to Council Procedure Bylaw
In accordance with s. 124(3) of the Community Charter, Town Council advises residents that it intends to re-write its Council Procedure Bylaw to effect some changes. A Procedure Bylaw is required of all municipalities in BC and addresses how resolutions and bylaws are passed, rules of procedure and conduct at their meetings, and how and where notices of meetings are dealt with amongst other things. Before a council amends or repeals such a bylaw it must notify the public.
Generally, changes anticipated in the re-write will be revised times for council and committee meetings during the month, the agenda format for meetings, removal of unnecessary sections that simply repeat the provisions of the Community Charter, and greater specificity in meeting conduct and allowance provisions involving motions, late items, and delegations. This planned update will create a more efficient meeting environment, provide clarity to procedures, and a more diverse meeting schedule.
Residents can expect to see Council repeal its existing bylaw and implement its replacement prior to the end of the year.

The Golden Rabbits Program, the youth cross-country skiing program co-ordinated by the Golden Nordic Club, is gearing up for a new season in the snow.
The Rabbits participate in Cross Country Canada's Skill Development Program, in which children ages five to 14 years old are taught the proper tech-niques used in cross country skiing by
trained volunteer coaches in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
This year the group will include Bun-nies (five to six year old beginners), Jackrabbits (six to nine year olds) and Track Attack (ages 10 and up). The sea-son runs from Jan. 2, 2013, to Mar. 13, every Thursday after school from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at Dawn Mountain.
"We look forward to another fun year full of games, skill development, fun races, hot chocolate and cookies," said Joan Dolinsky, youth programs
co-ordinator for the Nordic Club.The program is going through some
changes this year, and the club is hoping that some new volunteers will step forward to help out.
"Our Rabbit Program is really in transition this year, and we are looking for parents of young families to infuse some energy, ideas, and leadership in the Rabbit program. We need both coaches and a co-ordinator, and we can provide free training," said Dolinsky.
"You don't have to be a top-level ski-
er—just enjoy working with children and have basic skills and of course that rarest of things — time. The coach train-ing will help you develop both your leadership and skiing skills, and look sgreat on your resume."
Costs for the Golden Rabbits start at $50 per child, per season. There are also some club skis available for rent for the season at $30 a pair. Registra-tion forms for the program are on the Golden Nordic Club website at www.goldennordicclub.ca.
It’s Rabbit

Guitarist and singer Alpha Yaya Diallo will be bringing the sounds of West Africa to the Golden Civic Centre on Nov. 27.
Diallo said he is thrilled to be coming back to Golden.
"This is a part of my life. I am very excited to head out on tour," he said. "I played in Golden a long time ago. I love small towns and playing in them. People are closer to you when you play...Last time I remember it was high energy and people were dancing and very excited in Gold-en."
Diallo has successfully united the traditional and the contemporary while carving out a niche for himself beside such West African luminaries as Salif Keita, Baaba Maal, Youssou N’Dour, and Ismael Lo.
He started playing music in Africa when he was 12 and began travelling with a university band before moving to the Netherlands where he was signed to a Peter Gabriel label. Diallo saidit gave him the chance to eventually move to Canada.
Diallo is increasingly recognized as one of Canada’s leading music performers in any genre.
Part of any show involving Diallo is an inter-action with those in attendance where more than music is heard.
"Culture is something to share. When we tour it is not just to play. We want people to learn something and share in our culture. We want to leave something there that people can remem-ber for a long time. Sharing the culture is a part of our vision," he said.
Diallo is also excited to be taking part in a dance workshop being held on the day before the show.
On the Kicking Horse Culture website it states, "If you like to dance or want to watch how west African dance is created, we are now tak-ing advanced registrations at the Art Gallery of Golden. Adults are $10 and students are only $5...This is a very unique opportunity for our lit-tle town so don’t miss it."
Director of Kicking Horse Culture, Bill Ush-er, also shared his views on the dance workshop and having Diallo coming to Golden.
"The two women who are going to teach the dance class are just world class. They have been travelling the world," he said. "It will be exciting for people who want to dance and also exciting for people who want to watch.”ss
Usher went on to put the style of music in con-text.
"If you have heard Peter Gabriel perform with in his band. It is a similar kind of musical style. People need to check it out. It is very percussive,
very melodic and there will be lots of dancing. Tickets for the show and the registration for the
dance workshop is at the Art Gallery of Golden.

The second feature in the Kicking Horse Culture Film Kicks series is coming soon.
On Sunday Nov. 18, the Golden Cinema will be show-ing a 2 p.m. afternoon mati-nee of Academy Award Win-ning Director Kevin Macdon-ald's film, Marley.
Marley is the definitive new documentary about the legendary Bob Marley.
The film, which was made with the blessing and help of
the Marley family, explores the universal appeal Bob Marley's music had, and still has today.
Vivid imagery, footage never seen before, and audio that has been cleaned up and given new life are all on full display, letting the audience hear the story of Marley's life from the people who knew him best.
The film debuted in April of 2012, and has received high critical acclaim, and raked in $1.4 million at the US Box Office.

For the next month Brie Neilson and David Simard will be count-ing snow drifts and collecting keep-sakes, oh yeah, and playing some shows as well.
Starting Nov. 1 in Montreal, and reaching Golden by Nov. 19, the pair will be playing 21 shows in 30 days, from one side of the country to the other.
They will be asking audience members to bring along their found or cherished old framed photo-graphs in exchange for a copy of the debut album, aptly named "Picture Show," by Brie Neilson and Her Othermen.
Each night, new photos will be added to the display, allowing audi-ences to have their part in taking this picture show on the road.
Recorded at the legendary Studio Victor, "Picture Show," brings fla-
vours of '30s big band jazz and '50s country to a modern folk cabaret. All male harmonies and tail shaking horns provided by the Othermen will have you hypnotized.
Having enjoyed an active and well-established position in the Montreal music scene for the last six years, Neilson's 1930-50s throw-back themed crooning can now be heard throughout the national tour-ing circuit.
This will be her first cross-country
tour, and who better to help Neil-son through the process, than well-travelled performer and Othermen back-up singer and guitar player, David Simard.
After releasing his own debut album, "Slower, Lower," last fall, Simard spent the past year tour-ing his record from coast to coast, including a summer full of festivals.
Built on years of friendship, this charming musical pairing evokes the dynamic of Johnny and June
(Cash), without the fist fights and broken hearts.
Besides meeting, or perhaps re-meeting two of Canada's most tal-ented unrelated siblings, that quirky thrift store frame and portrait of your old Aunt Ethel might buy you one of 2012's best releases.
This concert is one among a ser-ies of Golden House Concerts. Brie Neilson will be playing at 811 7th St. N. on Monday Nov. 19 at 8 p.m. It is $10 to get in.

British Columbia singer-sonwriter Paul Filek is coming to the Rockwater Grill and Bar on Friday Nov. 9.
Born and raised in Kamloops, the acoustically-based Filek has a repertoire that can best be described as an ever growing fusion from Canadian fold to pop rock.
He has recorded three albums with Henry Small (Prism, The Guess Who, John Entwistle) between 2006 and 2009.
Filek was born into a large family, with six siblings choosing professional careers like law and accounting, even though it was a family with a strong musical presence.
Originally headed down a similar path, taking business administration at university, he found music in his early 20s and never looked back.
Influenced by artists such as James Blunt, Maroon 5 and Train, Filet has managed to build up a musical repertoire that has had him opening for big names in the music business like Colin James, Big Sugar, Trooper, Carly Rae Jepson, Kevin Costner, Styx, and has even performed the national anthem at the Calgary Flames hockey games.
He has appeared on several day-time TV shows, and was a Top 40 pick on Canadian Idol in 2007.
In April, 2008, Filek moved from Kamloops to Vancouver to pursue his music full time, and ended up moving in with his brother.
The move allowed him to tour western Canada, performing for audiences in threatres, bars, concert halls and stadiums. He loves the road, and has won over audiences with his easy charm, warm voice, and catchy songs.
In March of this year, the "Paper Planes and Spare Change" EP came to life. It is a compilation of five heart-felt songs show-
casing Filek's quirky lyrics, fun demise, and new sound.To hear some of Filek's music, go to www.paulfilek.com.

Beautiful landscapes of Golden captured by local artistJessica [email protected]
This artist doesn’t need to look any further than her own backyard to find inspiration.
Painter Joni Young’s collection, Impressions of Golden, depicts the beautiful scenery of the town she grew up in.
“We live in such a beautiful town, so I’m just happy to do this and let people see it,” said Young who was born in Nel-son, but grew up in Golden. Impres-sions of Golden is on display at the Art Gallery of Golden from now until Nov. 27.
Not only is painting a full-time job for Young now, it is also a lifelong passion.
“I always loved colouring and draw-ing as a child, and my mom is an art-ists so it seems to run in our family,” she said.
“I’ve always had a strong interest in art. I took up painting after high school and I’ve stuck with it ever since.”
Acrylic painting is Young’s medium of choice, and as far as content goes, all she has to do is look out her window, or go for a walk.
“I’m really drawn to landscapes. But I also love painting flowers, and I do the odd figure and animal once in a while, but mainly landscapes,” she said.
Photography is also a growing pas-sion of Young’s, and she does most of her painting from her own photo-graphs. She has several paintings of the wetlands from photos she took while cruising down the Columbia River, and that fresh drop of snow Golden got a couple weeks back got her particularly inspired.
“I hopped in the van and I drove around Nicholson, and I saw this scene at Canyon Creek. I just peaked over the edge, there’s a lit-tle cliff there, and when I saw this through the trees I knew I had to paint it,” she said.
Although known for her use of col-our, Young has started creating more and more paintings in black and white.
“I really like the contrast, and I like the different midtones, it makes it look soft. There’s contrast, but there’s also this softness that brings it all together,” said Young.
“It’s kind of different for me because I’m known for my colour, I love to go crazy with colour and I don’t hold back. But then I can go the complete opposite way, do a black and white painting and enjoy it just as much.”
All of Young’s paintings are on sale at the gallery, and she has been working very hard getting this collection ready.
“I’ve been working really hard, and very steady, so this collection took about a month. I’ve been painting non-stop, and teaching in the evening,” she
said.In the past Young has taught at the
College of the Rockies, as well as the local schools. At the moment she is
mainly teach-ing class-es out of her home studio where she can accom-modate up to 11 or 12 stu-dents.
“I’m teaching mainly children, but I’ve got an adult class going right now and it’s really fun,” said Young.
This is the first show Young has ever had in the Art Gallery of Golden, but you can also see her work on display at the hospital, the clinic, and often at the local markets.
“Everybody knows me from the mar-kets, I’m always there,” she said.
And even though she is happy to see her art enjoyed by others, she often has a hard time parting with it.
“I do have a hard time parting with them, but it’s good because it makes me want to paint more when I do,” she said.
“If I’m at home and I have all these paintings there it makes me think I should wait a bit before I paint more. But if I sell them then I get excited and feel like I need to paint more because I don’t have any left.”
Artist Joni Young stands by one of her paintings from her col-lection Imprssions of Golden, which will be on display at the Art Gallery of Golden from now until Nov. 27 Jessica Schwitek/Star Photo

Lovers of sushi have a reason to celebrate with the opening of Nagomi Sushi Takeout at 519 B, 9th Ave. N. in Golden's down-town core.
The business, which opened on Oct. 7, is owned by Tonia and Shigenori Nishioka.
Tonia was born and raised in Golden and returned to live in town around five years ago.
After working at another job for the past five years Shigenori wanted to get back into cooking which he had taken as a post sec-ondary program.
"I was always thinking that if I could get an opportunity to cook I would. I noticed Golden didn't have a sushi place in town and it would be nice for us to have a little shop," he said.
Since it officially opened residents have been coming by the shop and trying out the food.
"It has been great. There has been a lot of support from local people," Shigenori said
"They have been encouraging and very kind," Tonia added. "I thought being in business would be tough but dealing with the people has been wonderful."
Tonia also said it has been nice seeing the local business people and high school students come in and try the food.
"We wanted to be there for them...We thought about something quick, healthy and affordable," Tonia said.
Over time the restaurant will be developing a wider menu with more options for people in town. Opening a new business has been an adjustment for the whole family.
"The first week I was wondering what we had done but now we are in a routine and are getting used to it," Tonia said.
As the future plans are underway, Tonia said this is a great place
for her and Shigenori to work."He loves entertaining. He always says he wants to cook for
people what he wants to eat," she said.
Shigenori and Tonia Nishioka just opened Nagomi Sushi Takeout, located at 519 B 9th Ave. N. in down-town Golden. Darryl Crane/Star Photo

Shopping in Golden’s JungleJessica [email protected]
If you’re looking for something special for the little ones this Christmas season, you need look no further than downtown Gold-en.
The Jungle Room is gearing up for an exciting and busy holiday season. Golden’s most child friendly store, located right on 9th Avenue North, carries some of the most unique lines in children’s clothing and toys.
“We do both clothing and toys, we do some maternity, and a lot of baby accessor-ies, which we’ve been expanding into more,” said Cheryl Donnelly, who owns the store with her husband Ian.
“As far as toys, we try to stick to the lines you’re not going to find at big box stores, Wal-Mart, Zellers, that sort of place... We don’t want to be carrying the same product you can find everywhere. They’re more spe-cialty or novelty lines.”
Cheryl and Ian opened the store three years ago, and although it has, at times, been a struggle operating a small business in Gold-en, they enjoy the work immensely.
“I wanted to open up a store, so I started to research what was missing in Golden. My uncle has a kid’s clothing store in Invermere,
and my aunt has a toy store in Invermere, so they knew all the connections and were able to help me with making the right con-tacts and getting set up,” said Cheryl. “It was very helpful.”
Having children themselves, Ian and Cheryl were already familiar with certain lines and product that they liked.
“With my aunt and uncle owning the stores, I had gotten a lot of stuff from them over the years, and I knew what I liked and what I didn’t,” said Cheryl.
Some of the popular items in the Jun-gle Room include Billibong, O’Neil, Roxy, Quicksilver and Mexx clothing, Manhat-tan toys, Calico Critters, Schleich Animals, as well as rattles and teething stuff which are difficult to find in Golden with the same qual-ity.
“We’re pretty good at figuring out what sells and what people are looking for. And if it doesn’t sell, we clear it out and bring in something new,” said Ian.
The Jungle Room is open Monday to Sat-urday, 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and will be expanding to seven days a week when it gets closer to Christmas.
“People have already started coming in to check things out for Christmas, doing like a pre-run,” said Ian.

have our utmost respect. Thank you!Memorial donations may be made to the BC’s Alzheimer’s Society.

Brett Hanna recently returned to the Golden Rockets, and he could not be happier to be back with the team.
"I know the area and the coaches’ systems. The support group in the dressing room that has developed from last year is incredible," Hanna said. "It is easy to welcome new guys and keep pushing forward."
As for what he has seen on the ice since coming back to Golden, Hanna felt the whole team has grown from the net out.
"I have to give a lot of credit to our goalies. When you know they can stop a puck you can play even better in front of them. You do not have to worry if he is going to stop it," he said.
This season Hanna has been playing as a forward after spending most of the last year as a defenceman.
"Playing back there gives me the whole different defen-sive mindset. It makes it easy to transfer back and forth," he said.
Along with being a player who can play forward or defence, Hanna is also the Rockets third string goalie, though getting some action in net for the Rockets is not something he is too interested in.
"I hope not right now. It has been four years since I played in goal. I could do without that," he said. "I just want to play as much as I can, but if I can chip in with a couple of goals that would be awesome."
Hanna sees himself as a player who will get into the cor-ners and cause problems for other teams in their own zone. He feels it is a great mix for him and his line mates Daniel Dahlin and Josh Jewell.
"It has been great because Jewell has super fast feet. He is always up there and Dahlin is really consistent day in and day out. I enjoy playing with those guys," he said.

Coming off a very success-ful couple of years, the Gold-en Secondary School Senior Girls Volleyball team is work-ing hard to rebuild the team after losing most of its players this year.
"Players move up and move on, that's just part of high school sports. We've been to provincials the last two years in a row, and last year we went in ranked seventh in the prov-ince," said head coach Ron Ainslie.
Two players are back from last season, the rest having graduated and moved on, and a fresh batch of young talent has stepped up to take their place.
"It was a bit of a struggle at the beginning, just getting everyone to work together and to figure out where every-one was position-wise," said Ainslie. "It's mostly Grade 10s on the court this year."
After an admittedly slow start, the Senior Girls Team has grown tremendously over their short season, and has already played in five tourna-ments, the last two of which were quite successful.
"We've already improved a lot. At first it was a bit tough, it was only me and Shea (Archibald-Lacasse) who had played senior level. Every-one else was getting used to it. The competition is a lot harder. But our last tourna-ment we played really well," said Simran Dhami, a Grade 11 student, and one of the two returning players.
Things have changed a lot from last season for Dhami. And although she is current-ly benched with an injury (a player landed on her foot at a recent tournament in Cal-gary), she is enjoying her new role.
"I was the youngest one last year. I learned a lot from my teammates, they had been playing together since Grade 8 and they all moved up together. I learned a lot last year," she said.
"It's really different this year. Now I'm the one help-ing out the other girls on the court, and I'm the assistant captain this year. It's a lot dif-
ferent."One of the team's recent
tournaments was in Revel-stoke, where they faced off against seven other teams mostly from the Thompson-Okanagan region.
"We've been very up and down so far this season, and that is to be expected with so many new players. I think we've pretty much split the season with wins and loss-es. We did very well in Revel-stoke. We lost in the finals in a very close match to a very tough team... The fact that we were able to play with them showed us what our potential is. The girls were very excited about that," said Ainslie.
The high school volleyball season is very short, especial-ly for rural teams like Golden
who have to travel for most of their games, and will end in a few weeks with playoffs in Invermere.
They have a couple tourna-ments before then, as well as their only home game of the season against Invermere on Nov. 13.
"It's hard being rural some-times. It's just a challenge. We like to get as much game time
as possible, and the only way to do that is to travel. So it's a huge time commitment for the girls to be away from school. Lots of them have jobs as well, so it's a busy season," said Ainslie. "They're fun to coach every year. I have nothing bad to say about them. And they're really hard workers. We're a young team, but we're a strong team with potential."
Getting stronger with new teammates

The Golden Rockets split their weekend with a win and a loss, keep-ing them firmly in the middle spot in the Eddie Mountain Division.
The weekend began with a tough loss to div-ision rivals, the Fernie Ghostriders. Despite
outshooting the Ghost-riders 45 to 18, Fernie walked away with two points, from a 3-2 win.
Fernie struck first with an unassisted goal from Josh Kluck halfway through the first per-iod. They stretched it to a two-goal lead early in the second with a goal from Derek Chudyk.
The Rockets fought
back hard, getting their first goal of the game off the stick of Bran-don Shirley later in the second.
Things got heated in the final frame with a long list of penalties from both teams, includ-ing fighting majors for Golden's Brett Hanna and Fernie's Josh Kluck. The Ghostriders were able to capitalize, scor-ing a power-play goal early in the third.
The Rockets gave a strong final push, bring-ing them within one goal of tying the game with a Blake Roney goal. But after an interfer-ence penalty called on Michael Anderson with less than a minute left in the game, leaving the Rockets down one man, they were unable to push it to overtime.
The Rockets travelled to Invermere the fol-lowing night to face off against the Columbia Valley Rockies. Golden picked up a goal in each of the first two periods, both from Josh Jewell, giving them a comfort-able lead heading into the third.
By the mid-point of the third period they lost that lead after the Rock-ies tied it up at 2-2.
The Rockets fought back and regained
their lead. Blake Roney scored with 6:35 left in the game, assisted by teammate Connor Beauchemin. And Bran-don Shirley scored the
final goal of the game, with the assist going to Matt McMath, making it a 4-2 victory for Golden.
The Rockets play their next three games on the
road, and will be back in town to play the Sum-merland Steam on Fri-day Nov. 16, and the Nelson Leafs on Satur-day Nov. 17.

Linda Shibley has taken a passion for glass
and started a home based business called Glass Cre-ations by Linda.
Working with glass has been something Shib-
ley has done for a num-ber of years though work-ing with the beads is fairly new for her.
"I create glass beads
from glass rods. I always have liked working with glass," she said. "I used to work with stained glass and then I got busy with my family. They are now grown so I thought it was a good time to start again."
During a trip to Cal-gary last summer Shibley dropped by a store where she picked up everything she would need to start creating items.
"I started out thinking many people make jewel-ry so I thought I would try key chains," she said.
Using inspiration from her friend Brenda Smith, Shibley uses glass beads along with other items like charms to make her creations.
"Brenda brings her things to me and it is inspiring. Sometimes things come to me in the middle of the night.”
She explained that this passion started from when she was a child making ceramics with her mother and has con-tinued ever since.
Soon she will be taking part in the Craft fair at the Mount 7 Rec Plex on Nov 16-17.
"This has been fun. I did a few farmers markets this fall and it is nice. You get to meet people and talk to them. I get to explain to people how I make what I do."
Going forward Shibley is excited to push herself to learn more and cre-ate more complicated pieces.
To learn more feel free to contact Shibley at [email protected].

Veteran of the Second World War, Sid Feuz, left Golden to join the Navy and would end up working on supply ships and mine sweepers in the Atlantic Ocean.
Feuz was born in Golden and was training to become one of the Swiss Guides when he found another calling in the Navy.
"Actually for me it was wonderful. Every-thing just worked out perfectly for me. Wher-ever I got sent I was surrounded by good people," he said.
Feuz added it was a friend of his who con-vinced him that the Navy would be a good place for him to be.
It did take some time for him to join up and Feuz ended up working at a few different jobs, including working on motors. This would benefit him greatly once he was accepted in the military.
It was during a conversation with a member of the armed forces where Feuz stressed how much it meant for him to join up.
"He asked me if I wanted to get in the Navy and I said it was something I really wanted to do," Feuz said.
He believes his family was happy that he was making the decision to join the armed forces and eventually he ended up back in Vancou-ver where he would receive his training.
Feuz was put on a ship in Vancouver and was sent through the Panama Canal on his way to Halifax. Once he made it to Halifax he was quickly commissioned to work in an engine room of one of the many ships making runs back and forth to Europe.
Though he made many trips across the Atlantic Ocean, Feuz said he could not remember too many times where he got to see much. Because he worked in the engine room, Feuz spent many days making sure things were running properly below deck.
"I never thought too much about it, I just did
what I was told," he said. "We worked in the dark most of the time. There was piles of supplies on the ship with us that we had to get to Europe."
Feuz docked a few times in Scotland but
said he never had the chance to get off the ship and see anything. "We took everything off and then took whatever they wanted back on the ship. I never saw Scotland in all my
times there."After the war was over Feuz returned to
Golden and completed his Swiss Guide train-ing and has live in the area ever since.

Carrie Morrison is the new manager of the Roy-al Canadian Legion, Branch 122 in Golden. Morrison started working at the legion in the middle of October after moving to Golden from Lethbridge, Alberta.
"I have always been working at trying to help others in any way that I could. I had my own houses where I did group homes as non profits back in Lethbridge," she said.
Morrison added that her family has a long history of working and volunteering at other legions.
"My grandfather and grandmother were both a part of the legion." she said.
Working as a manager for the facility is exactly the type of position Morrison was looking for when she moved to Golden.
"I have always done office work and managing. I wanted to come here and relax a little while also helping in the community," she said.
So far she has been enjoying her time getting to know both the people who come to the legion and her job.
"It has been absolutely awesome. The people here are welcoming. The whole town is great and I am so impressed. My kids have been treated wonderfully at their schools. They love it," she said. "It is everything that I love to do with giving back and something I know well as a manager."
Her children are already involved with activities at school and the family has taken in an exchange student for the year.
"When we chose to come here it was about finding a place for my kids to have the world in front of their front doors."
With Remembrance Day coming soon Morrison has
been working hard to prepare for a busy day."It is getting to be the busiest time of the year for us.
Coming in at this time is a bonus. I am learning every-thing at the time that it needs to be done."
She also wanted to thank the staff and members of the Legion who have helped her adjust to her new work enviorment.
"I am thankful that everybody has welcomed me. I want to thank Ed Coon and Kim Hickey. I feel like it is exactly where I was supposed to be and my grandpa would be proud. I know he is looking down and is pretty happy that I have something to do with the Legion."
She also wanted to thank Lisa Smith who has helped train her for the position she now holds.

The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 122 has been entrusted with a very unique responsibility and honour.
The Golden Chapter of the Legion is the custodian of a special parcel of land which is unique in both British Colum-bia and Canada. This parcel of land is dedicated to the memory of Canadians who sacrificed their lives for their coun-try, and is known as the Golden Royal Canadian Legion Cemetery.
Also known as Mountain View Cem-etery, this special homage to Golden veterans and their families is located on Upper Donald Road.
Golden is one of the few commun-ities in Canada where a local chapter of the Royal Canadian Legion had the foresight and perseverance to inaugur-ate and maintain a cemetery to honour local residents who sacrificed their lives to guarantee the freedom and rights of future generations.
While many other towns and cities honour their veterans in special sections of public, municipal and religious cem-eteries, the Golden Chapter of the Royal Canadian Legion owns and operates its own cemetery to honour the memory of its local veterans.
Since its inception in 1935, the Gold-en Legion Cemetery has held a spe-cial place in the culture and history of the community. Initially established to
honour the memory of veterans of the First World War, the cemetery gained increased prominence in the years fol-lowing the Second World War.
Several decades later, in the early mor-ning hours of Sunday May 8, 1966, a fire broke out in the Branch 122 Legion Hall. In the end, all that was saved was a shell with outside walls and a bit of contents stored near the same walls.
The Golden Royal Canadian Legion Cemetery records were lost. As a result, the cemetery is the home of several unmarked white crosses.
In 2005, 60 years after the end of the Second World War, the Golden Legion began a Revitalization and Rededica-tion Project, which is still ongoing today (this project is separate from the 2011 revitalization project that encompasses the whole of Branch 122).
Legion members and volunteers have helped replace the outer fencing, lift and revitalize some of the graves, bring in benches for seating, and build a timber-frame gazebo.
The Golden Royal Canadian Legion Cemetery serves as a reminder to all Canadians that democracy, freedom and the right to exist in peace, is not something to take for granted. It is only because past generations fought to pro-tect our way of life that we are able to enjoy the comforts that Canada offers to all of its citizens.

Remembrance Day is a time when we honour the valour and sacrifices of Canadians who fought in WWI, WWII, the Korean War, on peacekeeping missions and in Afghanistan.
They defended our country and stood up for our values and our freedom.
I would like to particularly hon-our one individual for whom I have great respect and admiration.
Mr. Bob Doratty, who is now 97, landed on Juno Beach on June 6, 1944 in the final push by our Canadian troops to liber-ate Europe from German occupation. Bob was 27 years old on that historic day. His platoon was one of the first to land on Juno Beach. He received a Commendation medal from General Montgomery.
Upon returning to Canada after the war he married his bride, Molly, and together they just celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary.
There are not many veterans left from Juno Beach. As we approach Remembrance Day, I, along with all Canadians, will pay homage to all members, past and present, of the armed forces for their service.
I recently had the honour of presenting the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal to Mr. Doratty and I would like to extend a special thanks to him for all he has done for Canada.
On Sunday the 11, I hope you will join me in taking part in one of the many Remembrance Day ceremonies in our community. This year, I will be attending ceremonies in Golden.
And, to the men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces: on behalf of myself, my family, and the residents of Kootenay Columbia, thank you for your service.
Lest we forget.
David Wilks MPKootenay-Columbia
Remembrance Day is a very compelling and hum-bling occasion to gather with Canadians all over the nation and collectively say Thank You. There is no other day of the year that we come together as a com-munity with such civility and reverence. On November 11, I encourage you to set aside the time to join your community in honouring the stories of Canadian sol-diers and their families in two World Wars, the Korean War, and in dozens of other conflicts and peacekeep-ing missions throughout the world today.
On behalf of the Town of Golden, I would like to thank our Legion for the ways they teach us to honour those who have served and those who have fallen. Thank you for keeping alive the values of freedom and democracy. You represent those who understand that being a citizen isn’t just about rights and privileges but profound responsibilities as well.
Town of Golden MayorChristina Benty
Again this November 11th, communities across Canada will gather to honour veterans who have sacrificed so much for us.
Our freedoms, our ability to make decisions demo-cratically, and the fact we live in peace all come from the sacrifice of others.
On Remembrance Day, we remember those who have fallen. But each and every day we must show that we value all that we have been given. And we must commit ourselves to looking after others, pro-tecting our freedom, and furthering our democratic responsibilities.
Along with our children and grandchildren, our con-tinued attendance at Remembrance Day ceremonies shows that we are keeping faith with our veterans. And we prove through our actions that we will never forget.

As Remembrance Day comes for another year Lieutenant Leonard LeSchack, a member of Golden's Royal Canadian Legion Branch 122, shared tales from his past and what the day means to him.
LeSchack served in the United States during the Cold War which he felt was a very scary time for the world.
"It included the Korean War, Vietnam, the original messing around in Afghanistan," he said.
It was when he was working as a geophysicist on the US Ant-arctic Expedition for 14 months where he was able to delay his entrance into the military, and gain some valuable Navy contacts at the same time.
"I learned later that one of the key support things that got me in was in addition to the science I was an amateur radio operator. That was important for what they were planning on doing," he said.
The U.S. Navy were doing the logistics for much of the project and LeSchack took his time in the expedition to get to know the Navy men involved.
The support he found helped LeSchack get into the Navy and after some discussion he ended up working with the U.S. Air Force.
LeSchack eventually became involved with a famous mission during his time in the military.
Operation Coldfeet, a mission to gather intelligence, would go down in the annals of military history for many reasons.
At the time, the Americans and Soviets had stations set up in the Arctic, either on glacial ice (ice islands) or sea ice. Since the ice has a tendency to be unstable these stations sometimes would break up and this could leave little time for personnel to get away before planes could no longer land.
LeSchack realized that by tracking the Soviet stations there would be a chance to get information from an abandoned one.
When the time came to take a shot and getting on and off the ice before all was lost LeSchack and another man went into action. Getting on the ice was challenging but getting off would become the stories of legends.
A skyhook, installed on a B-17 plane, allowed planes to pick a person up off the ground without landing. It consisted of two arms attached to the aircraft's nose. On the ground, a rope held
up by a weather balloon, and secured to the person to be picked up, would hook onto the two arms as the aircraft approached as low and as slow as possible.
This is how LeSchack and his partner made it off the ice.LeSchack said that the importance of the Arctic should not be
forgotten in todays world."There is clearly more surface communication and Canada is
right in concerning itself with the Northwest passage and who goes through it. There is the possibility of oil spills and all sorts of disasters in ice infested waters," he said. "I also understand the U.S. position where they say the straights, if they are needed for international commerce, then they must be opened."
As for their service around the world LeSchack said, "As Can-adians, they do recognize there is a responsibility here and they come and join in. They are excellent at it."
LeSchack is also planning on attending the Remembrance Day ceremonies this year.
"It is vastly important. When I grew up Nov. 11 was always called Armistice Day...In this particular context I have been told there will be a special wreath laid at the Cenotaph specifically for Afghanistan veterans," he said. "I recognize that a lot of Can-adian soldiers have put the all into this."
