Chief Kieth Crow has a fish tale he wishes he didn’t have to tell.

The Lower Similkameen Indian Band chief was just about to cast his line for the third time on Yellow Lake last week when he spotted an 18-inch Koi. The fish often used in decora-tive ponds surfaced hop-ing to be fed.

“I was just out fishing and it surfaced. It’s not good on the ecosystem at all,” he said.

Crow walked along the dock to see if oth-ers would surface and he spotted several goldfish as well.

The fish must have been released by their owners at some point this spring. Crow suspects there could be dozens more of the fish in Yellow Lake and he’s been told Koi have also been detected in Vaseux Lake.

“People get that thing when they don’t want to kill their fish but they want rid of them and so they dump them in the lake thinking that at least they have a shot to survive, but they cause major dam-age,” he said.

Elks Bluegrass jamboree revival huge successReview Staff

They liked everything but the wind were the reviews from performers and campers who partici-pated in the first revived Elks Bluegrass Jamboree over the weekend.

“For their first year they did a great job,” Hellen Bullock from Winfield said at the close of the jamboree Sunday. “The grounds were great, the camping was good, the facilities were wonderful and the food was really good. Everything was great but it was quite

windy.” Bullock travels around

to many of the province’s bluegrass festivals.

She spends weeks at a time in her trailer with peo-ple that have become like family to her.

One of those people Evelyn Valentine was happy to sing with her friend throughout the week.

“It’s been a great time. These people are all like family. We’re just one big family,” she said.

Throughout the week

about 35 rigs made a home at the Elks Rodeo Grounds.

Organizers said if they’d opened the site Sunday peo-ple would have set up then.

“We had people want-ing to park Sunday night. They’d come up from Summerland. Next year we’ll probably start the camping portion Sunday instead of Monday,” Dave Barker, organizer said.

Barker finished his handmade portable stage just in time for the festival.

Submitted photo Quinn Carignan can barely contain his excitement after the Peewee Boys won their third straight game to capture the cham-pionship. He’s pictured with coach Jody Watts seconds after the big win. A detailed story with several more pictures can be found on page 23.

The bad news is water levels will most likely decrease in the years to come.

But on the bright side recent testing shows water quality isn’t getting any worse.

Directors from the Similkameen Valley Planning Society received highlights from the draft plan of the second phase of the regional watershed plan last week.

“The second phase is very technical,” Roger Huston, pub-lic works manager from the Regional District Okanagan Similkameen said.

The RDOS is overseeing the non-regulatory watershed plan, an SVPS initiative that is being mostly funded through a $500,000 Gas Tax Strategic Priorities grant.

The dumbed down summa-rized report covered each of the second phase’s objectives and listed 10 recommendations.

Before the draft will be final-ized the environmental con-

sultant company will consult with the Lower Similkameen Indian Band for comment. The LSIB is currently working with neighbouring bands to draft a regional watershed plan that might supersede the SVPS plan currently being developed.

The SVPS watershed plan was always meant to only pro-vide guidance to higher author-ities about the current state and the possible future of the Similkameen watershed.

“Before we go any further I think we need comment from the LSIB,” chairman Manfred Bauer said.

Highlights of second phase of Similkameen water-shed plan

Analysts looked into the availability of water and the risks of inadequate supply by collecting data on the natural flow in the Similkameen River, the demand agriculture places on the system and factored in climate change predictions and change in agricultural use and water conservation technolo-

gies. The results concluded that

there will be more water needed in the future and their will be a variability in supply. Also with an increased water demand and warmer drier summers the water supply availability could decrease and result in more frequent water shortages.

Several recommendations are coming forward includ-ing constulting with Water Survey Canada to emphasize need to continue with hydro-metric monitoring; complete

detailed groundwater-surface interaction assessment within Keremeos Creek and sub-basin; update water availabil-ity and risk with new water information from other sources

Legion week events planned all weekTara Bowie

Review Staff There’s a lot to celebrate this Legion

Week. Members of the Royal Canadian Legion

Branch #192 have been hard at work on a number of initiatives to help their own and the community at large.

One of the larger projects is a chair lift that will allow people with low mobility to enter the Legion without having to use the stairs.

“As people are getting older and older we’re seeing more and more people strug-gling to get up and down the stairs. By put-ting in a chair lift that means they can still come in and enjoy. They just have to sit on the chair and it will lower them down to the clubhouse area,” Heather Catcher, first vice president of the Legion said.

The Legion received a $25,000 grant to put in the chair lift. Currently a specialized engineering service is investigating the best way to put in the lift.

Members hope work will be complete by September.

The Legion also received a small $1,900 grant to complete research on soldiers listed on the cenotaph.

“Unless the family stayed in the area till now nobody knows who the soldiers are on the cenotaph and that’s just not right,” she said.

Research has just begun on the soldiers and data will be listed on the Legion’s website and a hard copy will be published.

Legion members put forward a call out to other service groups in the area to put together a sign so people new to the area or

passing through knew what was available. The community service signage initia-

tive came about when a member suggested new signs be put up because the old ones were either in disrepair or being obstructed.

“Basically our old signs are useless. The idea came about to have a village commu-nity service sign that would include all the clubs,” she said.

Three signs will be placed at the entrances into the village on Hwy. 3 west, Hwy. 3 east in Cawston and Hwy. 3A near the Grist Mill.

With so many new initiatives to cel-ebrate a full week of activities are planned for this week.

On Thursday and Friday members will be outside the Legion cooking up ham-

burgers and smokies from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. On Wednesday the second annual First

Responders Dinner took place. A silent auction is being held in the

clubhouse until Monday, June 29 until approximately 5 p.m. Items include litho-graph prints, Canada hockey gold medal team signed picture, Toronto Maple Leafs jersey, hand painted planter boxes and other items donated.

Every Saturday the Legion holds meat draws and on Mondays the bunny races get the crowd hopping.

Currently the Legion has about 283 members but is always on the lookout for more.

Last year the Legion gave out about $15,000 to other service groups and initia-tives.

“We give out lots of money to the com-munity and great causes so we would like it if the community came out and supported us,” she said.

The Legion raises money three main ways through the poppy fund, gaming account and the canteen.

The money raised each year through the poppy fund can only be used to support veterans. The money raised through the gaming can only be used to support non-profit society’s and junior sport programs.

“Come in and buy a lottery ticket, buy a beer, buy a pop or just come in and give us a hand. Our canteen funds through sales of alcohol and food that’s what pays for the light bill,” she said.

Ontario couple missing near Cathedral Lakes

A couple failed to return to the Cathedral Lakes Lodge prompting a search and rescue investigation.

The man and woman described as being between 50 to 60 years old were reported missing about 8:30 p.m. Monday night.

The couple left the lodge around 10 a.m. that morning to go for a hike and were to be back by supper time. When the couple did not return, lodge staff conducted a brief search but were unsuccessful so they contacted police.

Search and Rescue (SAR) was activated imme-diately and they began a search first thing Tuesday morning by foot, vehicle and air.

The upper camp from where the two went miss-ing was at approximately the 6,800 feet elevation level.

At press time the couple had not yet been found.

VICTORIA – I’ve just spent two weeks view-ing events from the opposite side of Canada, in and around St. John’s Newfoundland. It’s the same coun-try, but you wouldn’t know it sometimes.

Here on the West Coast, “kayaktivists” paddled around a Shell offshore oil drilling platform being serviced at Seattle, striking poses of resistance for the media from their petroleum-based watercraft.

Meanwhile at Bull Arm outside St. John’s, work continues on a massive “gravity-based structure” that will soon be drilling into the Hebron oilfield 350 km offshore. It will have living quarters and drill rig above and a tank with capacity for 1.2 million barrels of crude below.

Offshore oil has turned St. John’s into a boomtown. With one industrial park nearing capacity on the edge of town, a second is under construction. Locals call it “Dannyland,” after its developer, former premier Danny Williams.

St. John’s Airport is buzzing with flights back and forth to Edmonton and Fort McMurray, and crew helicopters shuttling back and forth from offshore oil rigs. Tourism is picking up, with a new cross-Canada ad campaign and WestJet starting service to Dublin and London.

A foreign supplier won a contract for tankers to bring oil ashore. With no media-connected environmental groups to steer the sub-ject to far-fetched disaster scenarios, debate in the Newfoundland and Labrador legislature turned to concerns about maintaining local employment.

Outside the city, parallels with B.C. become evident. Tiny towns struggle to hang on as young people choose opportunity over isolation, and the only expansion is at church graveyards. While cities struggle with high housing and recreational property costs, homes in remote areas are going for a song.

Up north in Labrador, a hydroelectric dam at Muskrat Falls is under construction. Its $8 billion estimated price tag is in the same range as BC Hydro’s Site C project on the Peace River, which will

part a sea of protesters and lawyers and move ahead this summer. Nalcor Energy, Newfoundland’s electri-cal utility, is dipping into contingencies in an effort to keep it on time and on budget.

Here on the Left Coast, enviros and the Green Party rail against hydro as well as oil and gas, and of course you can’t even mention nuclear. Climate activism proceeds in a logical vacuum in these parts, as it often does in Europe.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper signed on to a farcical “carbon free in 85 years” pledge at the G7 meeting in Germany. But hey, it’s an election year, not a time for serious discussion of issues.

Imperial Oil’s Kearl oilsands mine at Fort McMurray has started production from its $9 billion second phase, with the help of many Newfoundlanders. Production continues to grow, heavy oil prices have surged with paving season, and large-scale liquefied natural gas export plans begin to take shape in B.C.

With the legislature about to be recalled to endorse the Petronas-led LNG export project, Premier Christy Clark has assembled a climate action team with representatives from indus-try, First Nations, local governments and a couple of professional protesters for good measure.

They have an absurdly short deadline to recommend changes to B.C.’s token carbon tax, as gasoline consumption returns to pre-tax levels despite continued high pump prices.

In St. John’s, another long, cold winter has finally loosened its grip after piling snow to doorknob levels. Every street in sight is being patched and repainted.

The debate about new energy supplies has a more serious tone in Newfoundland. The last elected premier, Kathy Dunderdale, lost her job in the wake of winter power blackouts.

The view from the east coast

There is a growing body of evidence – a growing body count really – that distracted driving is one of the easiest ways to die in British Columbia.

Why then is the provincial government seek-ing online consultation, gathering public input on whether or not the penalties for driving while talking on the phone, or texting or watching videos, should be increased?

If a law needs to be changed to reflect the seri-ousness of an offense, or in the interests of public safety (and in the case of distracted driving if the government doesn’t see that need it’s just stupid) it’s the government’s job to change the law. Period.

The province should not be wasting time and taxpayer dollars conducting opinion polls, as if try-ing to weigh the popularity of tough legislation or measure its potential for political loss or gain.

People are dying, while BC carries on with the second lowest distracted driving fines in the country and voters effectively are having their temperatures taken.

Distracted driving kills far more people in British Columbia than impaired driving – 81 compared to 55 in 2013, yet driving while on the phone costs a person a $167 fine and the penalty for emailing and texting is $167 plus three demerit points. Penalties of course for impaired driving range from stiff fines to jail time – considerable incarceration if someone is guilty of impaired driving causing death under the Criminal Code.

To the young girl who is dead it doesn’t matter what impaired the attention and skills of the driver who killed her – a text message or two beers over the limit. Dead is dead.

The problem of distracted driving is overwhelm-ing in scope. RCMP have written more than 200,000 tickets for the offense since 2010 and according to ICBC 34 per cent of young drivers involved in crashes resulting in injuries or deaths in the past five years were distracted by a smart phone or similar device.

In a survey recently released by Telus one third of smart phone users admitted to driving while using their device.

Distracted driving is a cultural norm. People might acknowledge it’s dangerous, but it is accept-ed, the way impaired driving was just a few decades ago as one of those risks it’s okay to take.

Yes, the penalties for distracted driving should be harsher. The fines should be higher, and repeat offenders should face vehicle seizures and driving prohibitions. Young drivers in the graduated licens-ing program – those drivers who really do believe they are invincible – should automatically lose driv-ing privileges for a distracted driving offense.

These laws should be developed with the insight of police associations in the province, not by seeking the opinions of a population which freely admits its guilty as charged.

At the same time there needs to be more educa-tion about the dangers of distracted driving, about the deaths. Public awareness campaigns were cru-cial in changing the way society felt about drinking and driving.

People are dying – so let’s get on with changing minds, putting the law behind what is right, and sav-ing lives. – AD

The Review Thursday, June 25, 2015 www.keremeosreview.com A 5

Clapping is such a stressful ritual.This can be observed at any event, any

ceremony or conference when people are honored, invited to speak, or are in some way recognized.

You will find this apparent if you are attending a graduation ceremony this month.

Someone is introduced to the audience and called to the podium. An awkward silence ensues.

Do we clap now? Or do we clap when he is done speaking? Do we clap twice?

Even when there are expressed rules about when to clap, and when not to clap, people get it wrong.

Three weeks ago in Mississippi a school superintendent with serious control issues pressed charges of disturbing the peace against four guests at a high school com-mencement for cheering and clapping at the wrong time. He had asked the crowd to hold applause until all the graduates had received their diplomas.

The renegade clappers were ejected from the ceremony and the police were called.

On the subject of control issues it is sometimes fun to sit in an audience and lead the crowd. Since clapping etiquette is so

misunderstood, most people are happy – even grateful – to have someone initiate. It is possible to get an entire auditorium to put its hands together when the MC announces the appetizers are about to be served.

This takes a bit of practice in terms of timing (in the above example it helps if people are peckish) and a good dollop of confidence. The first person to clap needs to be loud and strong – no polite tapping of two fin-gers against an opposing palm. A weak clap only serves to confuse others further and leads to that kiss of public death –the oh-so-humiliating “smattering of applause.”

Experts in human development are unable to trace the precise origins of the clap. Primates in the wild do not clap. They can be taught to do it, however, and will use the behavior to attract attention to a source of food. Appetizers, maybe.

The early Romans did not clap, but they did snap their thumbs and forefingers to sig-nal approval for a speech or performance. In some times and cultures clapping was actu-

ally a paid job. French theatres and opera houses employed “claques” (translation: clap-ping.) These were groups of organized, professional applauders engaged to create an illusion of audience approval.

That really explains the angst surrounding the clap. It means approval. People like you. From sweat-in-the-armpits experience I can testify to how nerve-wracking it is. Your name is called from the stage and you

rise on shaking knees hoping someone will start clapping. If you are acknowledged as part of a group it is impossible to not mea-sure the volume and duration of your own applause with that of the gentleman who stood up right before you, and right after.

Do any of us ever entirely leave high school?

Maybe for this reason I am a firm believer that when in doubt, clap. Also whistle, hoot and stamp your feet.

While never having been kicked out of a graduation, I have come close to being escorted from the side of a soccer field and on

occasion have been asked to tone it down by coaches, referees and offspring alike.

Cheering is fun. It feels good and it makes other people feel good. After one sport-ing event Mr. DeMeer remarked, somewhat unkindly, that I am a competitive cheerer. I want to be louder and more enthusiastic than anyone else in the stands.

Many years ago at an elementary track and field meet I was in fine cheering and clapping form, encouraging not only my own boys – who were trying mightily to pretend they didn’t know me – but all the kids from our hometown.

Towards the end of the day I was stand-ing sore-throated near the finish line and a young girl from another school tugged on my spirit wear. Her sister was racing in the 100 metre final and she asked very hesitantly if I wouldn’t mind cheering for her.

I looked down, considered asking the kid for a quarter, and then decided what the heck.

The child obvioulsy knew a gold-medal cheerer when she saw one. And I cheered.

To clap or not to clap – it really causes a lot of stress

ANDREA DEMEER

MLA proves to be compassionate and candid off-stageArt Martens

living significantly.caMy purpose in meeting with

MLA Linda Larson was to get a glimpse of who she is off the “polit-ical stage.” Having a slice of my wife’s homemade brown bread with cheese, she appeared relaxed as she spoke about her early years and present political life.

“In my childhood, mom strug-gled to put food on the table,” she said. “She baked bread. We had but-ter every 2 to 3 months. Other kids at school wore store bought clothes. My mom made mine.” She now values this experience, believing it gives her greater understanding in her role as Parliamentary Secretary for Accessibility. “You have to have struggled to understand people who are struggling.”

Linda met her husband when he came into the store in Powell River where she was a sales clerk. After marriage in 1970 they lived in several locations, then moved to Oliver in 1989. Commenting on their daughters, Marnie, Lynnet and Donna. she said, “In their teens, the girls were a handful,” she recalled with just the trace of a smile. “Sometimes I didn’t think I would live. But they’re all doing well. They’ve given me four grand-children.”

For six years she was a stay-at-home mom and her husband, a Mountie, initially earned only $350 per month. Finances were tight. Their first home was a mobile, bought for $7,000. Her grandfather gave them $1,000 to make this pos-sible. In spite of present success, Linda has not forgotten what it’s like to raise a family on a meager income.

She became an airline attendant with Pacific Airlines, working out of Vancouver. She also managed a large territory for Avon. “For nearly six months my husband was very ill. It was important for me to have an income.”

In time she and her husband acquired a small business, Eastside

Grocery, in Oliver. “It was long hours, seven days a week.” When she became aware of unsettling decisions and practices at city hall, she decided to let her name stand for council in 1996. Before the election she was persuaded to run instead for the position of mayor. “I didn’t have a clue about being mayor,” she admits, smiling. “I was totally amazed when I was elected.” Now she enjoys the memory of “the fabulous people I met. I got to attend 100 year birthday celebra-tions.” Another smile. Her nine years in the mayor’s chair evidently convinced a lot of people she would represent them well in the provin-cial legislature.

She values the various earlier roles because they gave her experi-ence with people. Looking back reflectively, she paused, then said, “everything I did prepared me for what I’m doing now.”

In the realm of politics, she is pleased with the number of women her party has attracted. “We’ve made huge strides in that. I’d like to see us find more effective ways of also encouraging young people to participate in politics.”

When I asked what is satisfying, she replied, “I enjoy meeting with small groups, like the coffee time at the Hedley Seniors’ Centre this morning.” She had arrived there at 7 a.m.

The annual prayer breakfast is also a positive for her and she appreciates the encouraging notes that follow. “Meeting people is one of the nicest things I do.” The small wins that help individuals and communities provide a sense of accomplishment. The installa-tion of a sidewalk in Kaleden is an example.

Experience has convinced Linda most people are positive and con-structive. However, a note of regret crept into her voice. “Unfortunately, the negative ones are noisy. Some attack me personally. It’s harder to stay on track then. I don’t respond to them. It only perpetuates their destructiveness.”

Linda spends about six months in Victoria, coming home Thursday evening and returning Sunday night. She says her husband makes her schedule possible. “My mom has lived with us 12 years. She is 94 and is falling more,” she said. “When I’m away he takes her to appointments and prepares her eve-ning meal. Tonight I’ll take her out for dinner. I couldn’t do what I’m doing without my husband’s help.”

In this “off stage” conversation, I found Linda Larson to be surpris-ingly candid and compassionate. I hope the often-harsh world of politics will permit her to speak and vote according to the sound values I believe she exemplifies.

Crow urged all other members of the Similkameen Valley Planning Society to get people out on the lakes in their areas to make sure fish hadn’t been dumped in other waterways.

The fish do not go after bait but will surface if they’re used to being fed by an owner.

Crow said the only way to get rid of them will be to spear them.

Gail Wallin, executive director for Invasive Species Council BC said the province has been battling the problem of owners dumping unwanted fish in water-ways for more than a decade.

Most notably is Sprout Lake located on Vancouver Island where cottagers and residents first noticed koi in their lake in

the mid-2000s. “There’s a heavy population of koi and

goldfish. It’s a big lake with a lot of bays on it. I know people there tried a number of different ways to get rid of them but at this time there is not a treatment they have in BC to get rid of them,” she said.

The people of Sprout Lake have tried to net, electro shock and catch the fish.

None of those methods worked. “To my knowledge these fish don’t go

after bait,” she said. It’s unknown exactly how the koi will

effect the habitat at Yellow Lake but Wallin said it will be detrimental.

“Anytime you bring an invasive spe-cies, a type of fish or plant or anything into a system that isn’t meant for it there will be damage,” she said.

Koi’s when not contained that have

access to a large food supply will continue to grow. As they grow they will consume more and more food off the bottom of the lake. In addition to reducing available food for other fish the koi will most likely dis-turb the habitat of other fish and possibly take over.

The Invasive Species Council of BC recently launched a province wide cam-paign called “Don’t let it loose. Be a responsible pet owner.”

The goal is to educate residents not to let their pets out into the wild when they are done with them.

The council is partnering with pet stores so residents have an option instead of dumping the fish and animals out into the wild.

Shonk worked out of the RCMP detachment for the last six-and-a-half years providing those trauma-tized by crime find peace and wade through the judicial system.

“For me, (this job) was a good fit. My background has already been in a healing capacity as a clergy, as a chaplain primarily. It was a good fit for me,” he said.

“I can’t say I’m going to miss the work. A lot of it is nasty heart wrenching stuff but I’m going to miss the satisfaction I feel helping someone through a difficult time and seeing them succeed.”

Victim Services is a pro-gram organized through Lower Similkameen Community Services and run through the RCMP detach-

ment. The co-ordinator provides coun-

selling and referrals and followup for those who have been trauma-tized through crime, whether it be domestic violence or having their house broken into or a myriad of other crimes and even sudden deaths.

The co-ordinator will also help the traumatized person manoeuvre his or her way through the judicial system and attend court hearings if needed to help in the healing process.

Taking over for Shonk is Laurie Lion.

Lion has volunteered at Victim Services in Keremeos for the last 18 months.

“I hold Laurie in high regard. We’ve overlapped for the last year-and-a-half and it’s easier leaving knowing that the clients will be well looked after. We’ve worked with several of the same clients

during that time so there is going to be some continuity there,” he said.

Lion said the job fits in with her desire to help people.

She had previously worked at Portage as a clinical caseworker.

“I really like helping people in need. It’s important when you’re going through a trauma of some kind to have someone to lend sup-port,” she said.

Lion grew up in the Fraser Valley and moved to the Similkameen about 15 years ago.

“Although we don’t work direct-ly together I’m very grateful for the support of the RCMP members. They’ve been a big help,” she said.

Shonk completed his last shift of work several weeks ago.

Although he’s officially retiring from his victim services role he is continuing in his healing work at his private practice called the Healing Place in Keremeos.

Water quality remains level in Similkameen

Tara Bowie A car accident of a different kind occurred Monday night around 10:30 p.m. when a transport carrying cars that had been crushed lost part of its load. The vehicles fell off and scattered over a portion of Highway 3 between Keremeos and Hedley closing a lane for a brief period of time. It’s unknown if any injuries were reported.

including LSIB, USIB, US. Another recommendation included

develop future water demand scenarios to support long term growth for Similkameen watershed plan and complete environmen-tal flow needs assessment to provide a com-plete assessment of water availability and risk within Similkameen River watershed.

The second objective was to review existing water use and groundwater data to see how they interact. The summary of findings concluded that water levels in the groundwater near Keremeos and the nearby Similkameen River are close to each other. Currently groundwater levels indicate a light increase in water levels since 2000 most likely because of more efficient irri-gation methods or to crop changes that use less water.

But despite sustainable rates of ground-water use since 2000 aquifirs in the water-shed are sensitive to groundwater use and that any increase in use could cause a decline.

The recommendations include consid-ering groundwater and surface water to be a single source of water in the valley bottom. It’s also recommended that any new additional groundwater use in the area of Keremeos Creek should be limited until evidence shows streamflow levels are stable.

A detailed investigation into the aquifirs in the Keremeos-Cawston area should be undertaken to obtain a better understand-ing of the aquifir re-charge process and the effects of groundwater pumping on the Similkameen River.

The third objective was to determine if the quality of the water was changing over time.

Analysts compiled and summarized data from sites within the watershed and com-pared the information to historical data from the Princeton and International data collecting sites.

The data did not exceed testing levels for water temperature, pH, fecal coliforms, colour, dissolved oxygen, total metals and strong acid cyanide.


To the luck of patrons at the Hedley Farmers Market, cherries at Adolf Tilstra’s hobby farm are about three weeks early.

The 76-year-old who does all his own farming by himself had three different kinds of cherries for sale at the first day of the quaint farmers market on Sunday.

“Everything looks early this year,” he said while weighing out cherries for a customer.

Tilstra owns a small farm on the out-skirts of Keremeos that has several fruit trees including three kinds of cherries, Bing, Ranier and Lamberts, along with several pear and peach trees. He also grows tomatoes and potatoes.

“It keeps me busy. I like it,” he said. Tilstra only sells his produce at the Hedley

market on Sundays from now until the end of September.

“It’s a good market. I usually sell out and

whatever I don’t sell usually someone comes and says they will take the rest for however much. It’s fun,” he said.

The first market was a buzz Sunday morn-ing starting at 9 a.m. till it closed at 1 p.m.

There was a variety of vendors from artists to lotions, carvings, jewelry, pottery, polish delicacies and even homemade ban-nock made by Carrie Allison. The day also included a tribute to National Aboriginal Day with Allison ringing the bell.

“It’s a great farmers market with a variety of local items for sale. There’s different ven-dors throughout the season,” Lydia Sawicki, one of the organizers said.

The kickoff included a stop over by sev-eral Model A Ford owners and music by Bill Day and Walter Horkaff.

The Hedley Farmers Market is open from 9 a.m. till 1 p.m. every Sunday from now until September 27.

Canada Day jam packed with activities Review Staff

Canada is 148 years young this upcoming Wednesday and it’s time to get out there and celebrate.

Between the traditional annual events held at Memorial Park and put on by Similkameen Country the area’s Chamber of Commerce and events being held at the Grist Mill there’s a whole day of activities planned.

The day kicks off with crowd favourite the Elks Pancake Breakfast being served up from 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m.

The official opening will take centre stage at 10 a.m. The Legion’s colour guard will start the ceremony and then local dignitar-ies will speak including Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer, Area B director George Bush and Area G director Elef Christensen.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police and RCMP Safety Bear will be on site throughout the day along with youth ambassadors Selena Nugteren, Chelsea Matzick, Jodi McRae and Brian Deyaeger.

The Elks food concession will open around 10:30 a.m. and run till 1 p.m.

From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. there will be kids games hosted by Tabernacle Church includ-ing old fashioned games and the big red fire engine bouncy castle.

The cutting of the Canada Day cake will take place from 12:30 p.m. to 1 p.m.

The Keremeos pool will open at 1 p.m.

Grist Mill events start up at 3 p.m. Admission to the historical site is free that day. The kitchen will be open from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. with special Canada Day treats.

From 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. a traditional archery longbow demonstration will take

place. Music will fill the beautiful grounds start-

ing at 4 p.m. Two bands, The Wild Organic Humans and Infusion are slated to play fol-lowed by an open mike session throughout the evening.

At dusk at approximately 9 p.m. exotic

firepot dance performer Donna Lee Davidson will perform for the crowds.

With so much going on over Canada day there’s no reason to leave town. Spend the day taking in local events and meeting up with neighbours and celebrating our great country.

File art Canada Day events are sure to bring out the crowds.

A partnership is bringing a series of healthy life-styles and activity groups to the area.

The Canadian Mental Health Association is part-nering with the South Okanagan Similkameen to launch the programs that encourage socializing and group support.

The mental health association is receiving a grant of $2,800 to put on the programs.

“I am pleased to see the collaboration between CMHA, Interior Health Authority staff and BCSS to provide opportunities for community participa-tion for those living with a mental illness.” Aaron McRann, executive director of the foundation said in a press release.

The programs will lead to less isolation and more active lifestyles. The program will support over 600 participants during the summer and weekly groups throughout the year. Events include home garden planning, bowling, billiards, hiking, kayaking, beach game day, paddle boarding, float the channel and a craft day.

Dennis Tottenham, Executive Director, of the CMHA-SOS is very excited about this new opportu-nity for “individuals to learn more skills to promote their mental health and to deal with challenges as they arise. As many of our members are on low fixed income they cannot afford the costs of accessing community services.”

HBC Brigade Trail receives $20,000 from SVPS


A recently approved $20,000 grant means the area in on the trail of resurrecting history.

Bob Coyne, director for Area H, brought forward the large funding request at a recent Similkameen Valley Planning Society meeting last week.

The money, which will come from Area H’s trust account, was approved and will be used to complete the revitalization of the last portion of the Hudson’s Bay Company Heritage Brigade Trail that runs between Hope and Tulameen. About 22 kilometres of the trail is located in Area H.

“This is a very significant trail in British Columbia’s his-tory in the way that without it we would probably be under the US flag today,” Coyne said.

The trail was used by the iconic Hudson Bay Company for about 11 years from 1849 to 1860.

When the new international boundary of the 49th parallel was determined in 1846, British fur traders were blocked from using existing forts on the Columbia River.

So in 1848 an HBC surveyor named Henry Peers and 10 men built a trading post at Fort Hope while also building the Brigade Trail. The Brigade Trail spans from Fort Hope to Fort Kamloops through the Cascade mountains.

After a disastrous year the year before when 70 packhorses died while trying to negotiate the deadly Fraser Canyon, the push was on to have the trail ready by spring 1849 to enable HBC furs from the BC Interior to reach the Coast.

Local First Nations people helped to build the trail, which they had used as a route for hunting and trade.

“It’s a huge significance to the entire area because of how it opened up the valley,” Coyne said.

For the last five years, the Hope Mountain Centre has taken the lead on the project. During that time restoration has been completed from the west end of the trail to the eastern portion that resides in Area H. About 55 kilometres of the trail are presently restored and marked from Peers Creek to Tulameen Plateau. The remaining portion is expected com-plete by the end of 2015.

In addition to trail clearing, three new back country camps equipped with bear-safe storage will be constructed. Trail interpretive kiosks and directional signs will be installed at key locations.

Money donated by Area H is being matched by the National Trail Coalition, Recreation Sites, Trails BC and private donors.

Left lane hogs now face big fines

If you sign it and market it – they will come.

Recently, Todd Stone, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, announced the South Okanagan-Similkameen has been selected to be a pilot area for the province’s new cycling tourism signage and marketing strategy.

Known as the South Okanagan-Similkameen Cycling Network, this pilot will lead the way for other cycling networks throughout the Province.

Consistent route signage will be installed across the region which will identify routes for cyclists to follow.

Once they hit the road, the signage will guide them along a route of their choice. Road shoulder maintenance and sweeping on the key routes will be doubled for greater safety.

Cyclists of all skill levels can go online to www.clickhikebike.com and plan their trip.

The road cycling routes, the KVR and Similkameen rail trails and des-tination mountain bike areas area all displayed online. The South Okanagan-Similkameen Cycling Guide (bike map) is also now available through

local tourism offices. This product was a collaborative effort by local govern-ment, tourism organizations and the cycling community.

“The Regional District is very pleased to see that the province is now recognizing this region’s cycling net-work as the world class network that it is,” said Mark Pendergraft, RDOS chair.

“People come from around the world to ride, train and race through-out the South Okanagan-Similkameen. Now the required infrastructure will be put in place to support that interest and make it safer for everyone.”

The Regional Trails Program is a flagship for the RDOS. Cycling was identified as a key focus area as part of the 2012 Regional Trails Master Plan, with 71% of those surveyed identify-ing themselves as cyclist. A cycling network was established as part of the master plan vision and that same network was used

as the basis for the South Okanagan-Similkameen Cycling Network.

A key success driver for the RDOS is to develop socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable communi-ties throughout the region. The building and promoting of cycling infrastructure promotes active healthy living, tourism and economic development opportuni-ties and reduces greenhouse gases.

For information on the Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen’s cycling network, go to:

Tara Bowie Officers from the Keremeos detachment held a rollover demonstration at Similkameen Elementary Secondary School last week to remind students to drive carefully and wear their seat belts.

New signage coming for area’s cycling network

Highway drivers who hog the left lane and hold up faster traffic without a good reason now face potential $167 fines, with three penalty points.

The clarified regulation took effect June 12 and requires drivers to stay right on routes where the speed is more than 80 kilometres per hour when other traffic is approaching from behind.

The exceptions in which the left lane is okay is when you’re overtaking and passing another vehicle, leaving the right lane open to allow traffic to merge, preparing for a left hand turn, or moving left to pass an official vehicle with a flashing light.

The rules do not apply to HOV lanes – the next lane to the right is considered the left-most lane on routes such as Highway 1 in Burnaby.

Another change will allow municipalities to permit motor-cycle parking within six metres of intersections with stop signs or signals, so long as sight lines aren’t blocked.

About 50 performers took to the stage throughout the weekend.

“It was a great turnout. I would say throughout the weekend we had about 200 people. That’s not bad for a first year. We’re going to keep building it,” he said.

The Elks members put on breakfast each morning throughout the weekend and also grilled throughout the afternoon.

The Keremeos Royal Canadian Purple put on a roast beef dinner for performers and spectators Saturday evening. More than 100 people attended the event.

“It was a great turnout. Great meal,” Barker said. The Elks plan to hold the festival again next year.

Climate change warnings pushed for gas pumpsJeff Nagel

Black PressThe pain drivers feel at the pump from

high gas prices may soon also come with a jolt of shame for helping destroy the planet.

A proposal gaining momentum with civic leaders in B.C. would see guilt-inducing climate change warning labels slapped on all gas pump handles.

The non-profit group Our Horizon has been advancing the concept on the basis that warnings that graphically show the damage from climate change could nudge motorists to cut their emissions.

It’s inspired by cigarette package warnings that are credited in the decline of smoking and the example warning labels circulated by the group are similar in design.

“Warning: Use of this fuel product con-tributes to ocean acidification which puts much marine life at risk of extinction,” states one label that comes with images of thriving and dead coral.

West Vancouver council will bring a reso-lution before the Union of B.C. Municipalities in September asking the province to make the pump labels a requirement province-wide.

City of North Vancouver council voted to endorse the idea June 15 and it doesn’t want to wait for a provincial government decision.

“We’re going to try to go it alone,” Mayor Darrell Mussatto said, adding North Vancouver still must investigate the legalities. “We think it’s the right thing to do.”

Our Horizon B.C. campaigner Matt Hulse said he believes any municipality could make gas pump labeling a condition for gas stations in its local business licence bylaw.

But West Vancouver Mayor Mike Smith, a longtime petroleum distributor in the region, said he doesn’t want to take the risk that a unilateral municipal requirement gets chal-lenged in court.

“I personally hate spending public money on legal fees,” he said, adding his city will wait for provincial policy.

Smith said he will vote in favour of his council’s resolution at UBCM.

“It’s just a way of reminding the public that there’s a cost to be borne for using petroleum products,” Smith said. “Nobody’s advocating banning them. But you should be aware when you fill your car up that there’s an effect on the climate and on the environ-ment of doing that.”

He called the suggested labels innocuous and doesn’t believe the oil industry would object.

No jurisdiction in Canada has yet made pump warning labels a requirement.

Hulse said the labels would help make the routine act of filling up the tank a choice to be considered more carefully.

“It places responsibility right in the palm of your hand,” Hulse said.

If the concept takes off, he said, specific impact wording and imagery could be devel-oped to tailor the labels to each area.

“In the Lower Mainland it might be sea level rise, flooding, smog – any number of things – and it might be different in the Interior of B.C., where it might be forest fires and pine beetles,” Hulse said. “It might be ocean acidification in coastal areas such as Qualicum Beach, which has had a massive crash in its shellfish industry.”

Richmond Coun. Harold Steves noted handle labels would only be seen by self-serve pump users and suggested larger labels for the pump display be designed that are visible at full-serve stations.

SFU marketing professor Lindsay Meredith said the idea could influence fuel consumption, particularly among people already considering buying an electric car or choosing other transportation options to reduce their carbon footprint.

“It’s a way of turning up the heat, no doubt about it,” Meredith said.

“Does it get the hard core guy driving the

Escalade or the Hummer? Probably not. Does it get a whole bunch of the younger

crowd or the people who are on the margin? You bet your boots it does.”

CAPRICORN: Capricorn, honor all of your commitments in the coming days. Recognize others are counting on you and do your best to live up to their expectations.

AQUARIUS: Aquarius, give a minor financial issue the attention it deserves. It’s better to nip it in the bud early on so the situation does not escalate. Take responsibility for the problem.

PISCES: Pisces, avoid distractions as you look to resolve an issue that has been tough to handle. Try to clear your head before making decisions.

ARIES: Aries, make note of any and all thoughts that pop into your head this week. Even your more quirky ideas may amount to something that brings big success.

TAURUS: Taurus, play things close to the vest this week. Certain projects are up in the air, and you may need to more closely examine each situation before suggesting a course of action.

GEMINI: It can be tough to stay on track this week, Gemini. It’s hard to focus on work even for short periods of time. Try to maintain your productivity amidst the distractions.

CANCER: Cancer, if you have any free time this week, sneak off to a quiet place and daydream for a little while. Some of your most inspiring ideas have come at the most unexpected moments.

LEO: The line between fact and fantasy can be a bit blurry this week, Leo. You may be pulled in different directions, but try to maintain your focus.

VIRGO: Virgo, rather than looking at things on the surface, dig a little deeper to try to find more profound meanings. You may unearth several interesting patterns.

LIBRA: Libra, you may feel as though you are in unfamiliar surroundings this week. Don’t get too scared, as this break from the norm might provide a little extra hop in your step.

SCORPIO: Recognize the potential for magic wherever you go this week, Scorpio. You have the ability to see beauty where others only see blemishes. Turn others on to your way of thinking.

SAGITTARIUS: Sagittarius, encourage family members to gather in the coming days. Planning a day or evening with those you love most is a great way to escape the daily grind.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY


COMPANIES COMING

For many people, even those of us who don’t celebrate Christmas, the holiday season means a house full of guests. It’s funny because usually my job is to get people thinking about how to make healthier choices, but what do you do when you have family or friends staying with you that eat in a very different way?Food is an intimate thing. We use it to nourish and care for each other on a very primal level and it can make the difference between someone feeling welcome in your home and someone feeling threatened. Because I didn’t realize this when I was younger, and insisted on doggedly shoving tofu under people’s noses, I have extended family who are still afraid to even try anything I serve them! The solution here is to compromise. Portion out one small change at a time. For instance, preparing brown basmati rice in-stead of white. For some, this is as far ‘out there’ as they are ready to get at the moment, and that’s ok. Serving several options can be helpful too as it lets guests try a little taste of an unfamiliar food without immediately becoming anxious. Taking a popular dish and changing a few key ingredients works as well. Making vegetarian lasagna for example or substitut-ing rice noodles for regular ones. If you draw the line at having pop in the house, then stocking up on good fruit juices can be helpful, since there are some people that dislike drinking water. Herbal teas are a good idea too, especially if you buy some that don’t have cleansing or medicinal qualities!For the die-hards among us, here is a short checklist of things to remember when feeding the uninitiated: One, hide your flax seeds. Any food with a seed on, or in it, will be instantly given the “hippie food/granola” label and avoided like the plague. Two, buy a tiny bag of sugar. There’s nothing worse then telling caffeine-desperate people that all you have is organic stevia first thing in the morning. Three, avoid referring to apple cider vinegar, Bragg’s seasoning or nutritional yeast as ‘condiments’. This will only confuse people who want ketchup.Ok, so the above list is a bit of a joke. And yet, based on the true story that is my life. The truth is that friends and family are won over not by what we say, but by what they observe. As you seem to enjoy better health and lots of energy, people are going to want to know just how you are doing it. Natural health is becoming more and more mainstream as herbal remedies continue to make headlines and big box stores come out with their own lines of ‘organics’. Almost everyone is at least aware of the fact that certain foods are better for you then others, and that dietary choices can influence how you feel. This is a huge step forward from even fifty years ago when many were in the dark about these links. Over the next few years, let’s keep moving forward so that everyone is making efforts to better their health.And we’ll never need an article like this one again.This article is of the copyright of OK in Health and the author; any reproduction, duplication and transmission of the article are to have prior written approval by OK in Health or the authorThese articles are provided by OK In Health eMagazine.

TAKING HOLIDAYS IMPORTANTEvidently 46% of people do work while on their holidays. But what is even worse is that only 35% of people plan to take a holiday longer than an extended weekend. This is down from 47% just two years ago. It’s important for our mental and physical health to take a complete break from our jobs on a regular basis.

CRANBERRY JUICE CAN HELPCranberries contain compounds which prevent bacteria from attaching to the line of the urinary tract. Cranberry juice does reduce the risk of recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs). If you are troubled by these infections, try a daily glass of cranberry juice. It just might help. If all else fails, low-dose antibiotics do work for prevention of UTIs.

SKIN CANCER & “HEALTHY TAN”Everyone is aware of the dangers of sun overexposure and also aware that sunscreens and “covering up” do protect the skin. This message is slowly getting through to teenagers as well. Melanoma, a type of skin cancer, can affect young people. Many agree that the term “healthy tan” is an oxymoron. This summer, be aware of the dangers of sun and use your sunscreen.

PARKINSON’S DISEASEParkinson’s disease is not a normal part of aging but as we get older, our chances of getting Parkinson’s increases. The average age of diagnosis is 60. Over 100,000 Canadians are battling Parkinson’s today. The cause is unknown but research on genetic and environmental causes are being studied.The drugs to treat Parkinson’s, although not perfect, do help the symptoms. Our pharmacists are always keeping in touch with the latest research on this disease.

Mining activity picking up throughout province By Tom Fletcher

Black PressThe Red Chris copper and gold

mine in northwestern B.C. is ramp-ing up production after overcoming protests, declining metal prices and three reviews of its tailings facility.

Imperial Metals received its Mines Act permit for Red Chris June 19, after additional scrutiny of the open-pit mine’s construction in the wake of the August 2014 tail-ings dam breach at the company’s Mount Polley mine near Williams Lake.

That breach triggered indepen-dent reviews of nearly 100 mine tailings ponds with permits across the province, looking for design or operational weaknesses that indi-cate risk.

The Tahltan Nation commis-sioned its own assessment of Red Chris, located 18 km southeast of the Tahltan village of Iskut, before community members voted 87 per cent in favour of a benefits sharing agreement for the mine.

Powered by BC Hydro’s new

northwest transmission line, the project will truck ore concentrate to the bulk shipping terminal at Stewart near the Alaska border.

Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett said mines like Red Chris can operate profitably even in the current low-price market for cop-per, if their processes are efficient. Imperial

Metals conducted drill tests showing higher-grade copper and gold deposits deep below the sur-face ore body.

Imperial has applied for a per-mit to reopen Mount Polley, using an empty pit to hold tailings as work continues to repair the dam and remediate the washed-out creek below. Bennett said inspectors are expected to make a decision on that permit in July.

Another mine expected to begin operation this summer is Brucejack, an underground gold mine 275 km northwest of Smithers. Underground mines pro-duce less waste rock than open-pit

operations, and Brucejack’s owner Pretivm plan to return some of the rock underground as cemented paste.

Another underground mine pre-

paring for operation is Silvertip, an ore deposit near the Yukon border that was first identified in 1957. The province and the Kaska Dena First Nations signed an engagement

agreement in 2012, determining a structure for resource permits for Silvertip and other projects cover-ing millions of hectares on northern B.C.

Site aids youth ‘aging out’ of foster care system The province has unveiled a new

website designed to help teens in foster care prepare to prepare for life without government support when they turn 19 and “age out” of care.

The site agedout.com was designed by former foster teens to connect with vulnerable youth and showcases services and supports to help make the transition.

It includes videos of former

youth in care discussing real world challenges and gaming “quests” where youth earn rewards by com-pleting challenges like renting an apartment, getting a bank account, preparing for a job interview or dealing with an abusive relation-

ship.

“‘How do I get a job?’ ‘Where am I going to live?’ These are the types of questions we all faced when we became adults,” Children and Family Development Minister

Stephanie Cadieux said. “But for those in the care in the

ministry, the transition can be much more challenging.”

About 700 young people age out of government care each year.

Ministry of Energy and MinesThe Red Chris mine near Iskut is moving to full operation on one of the world’s largest copper and gold deposits.

Reforms ease way for breweries, added plantsJeff Nagel

Black PressBreweries, distilleries and mea-

deries will be allowed to open up on farmland in the Agricultural Land Reserve provided they meet the same rules set out for wineries.

That’s one of a series of reforms announced by the province recently that aim to make it easier for farm-ers to set up agricultural process-ing plants and otherwise earn more money from their land.

As with wineries in the ALR, at least half the farm ingredients that go into the beer, spirits or mead must be grown on the farm.

Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick noted hops farming is on an upswing in areas such as Chilliwack and Kamloops, and predicts the rule change will create an incentive for more farmers to take a risk and get into beverage production.

“If that means you can enjoy some mead or some beer on a piece of farmland and that’s what it takes to get that farmland back into production, I’m okay with that,” Letnick said in an interview at an herb farm in Surrey.

ALR land can also now be leased for farming without applying to the Agricultural Land Commission – a

move the province hopes gets more unused land into production.

Another rule change will make value-added processing easier by letting farms band together as co-ops and count all their members’ crops toward meeting the same 50 per cent local content rule. That’s expected to allow clusters of farms to feed into a plant in the ALR that makes something like juice or jam without seeking ALC approval.

Metro Vancouver previously registered concern that looser rules for non-farm uses may result in less land being farmed and a further climb in farmland prices beyond what new farmers can afford.

“Some people wanted us to do more, some wanted us to do less,” Letnick said.

“I firmly that believe we’ve come up with the right balance that promotes agriculture and safe-guards agriculture but also provide for more opportunities for farmers to earn income on their land.”

Winery restaurants in the ALR will now be allowed to serve alco-hol they didn’t produce, such as beer.

Some reforms apply only on farmland outside the Lower

Mainland, Letnick said, because he said farmers face a tougher struggle to earn a living in areas such as the Interior, North and Kootenays.

A second home can now be built on large parcels of at least 50 hectares in the ALR’s rural Zone 2 provided residential uses make up less than 43,000 square feet.

Letnick said that could allow farmers to build another house for family, lodging for workers, or a rental to earn extra money to sup-port the farm.

Similarly, retiring farmers in Zone 2 will be allowed to sell the farm but lease back their farmhouse from the new farm owner, who can build another home on the property.

It’s hoped that will help those retiring farmers sell their farms but encourage them to stay there and perhaps mentor a new, younger farmer, Letnick said, and meet the challenge of the coming “genera-tional change” in agriculture.

Second dwellings are still on the same parcel of land, which can’t be subdivided without asking the ALC.

More proposed reforms relat-ing to agri-tourism are still being considered and are to be put to

local governments for feedback in the fall.

Asked if he intends to increase the ALC’s budget so it can hire more compliance and enforcement officers – just three officers patrol the entire province for violations

like illegal fill dumping – Letnick said that’s under consideration.

He said the ALC’s budget is now $3.4 million, up from $2 million, and potential increases will be dis-cussed with new ALC chair Frank Leonard.

B.C. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick outlines changes to agri-business rules in the Agricultural Land Reserve at Evergreen Herbs in Surrey.

Province adding to aboriginal education programs Tom FletcherBlack Press

When the city of Prince George was being established a century ago, the aboriginal people on the site of the present downtown area were relocated to a new reserve and their homes were burned.

That’s a part of B.C. history that many people in Prince George and around the province don’t know, and an example of why changes are coming to B.C. school curriculum, says Aboriginal Relations Minister

John Rustad.More changes will be announced

soon for post-secondary education, based on the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada.

The B.C. government is provid-ing $4.3 million to establish an emergency financial assistance for aboriginal students and $12 million for a scholarship program.

“There have been attempts over the years to include more informa-

tion around First Nations and our aboriginal history, but this is going quite a bit further and trying to tell a more complete history of us as Canadians, all Canadians,” Rustad said.

National Aboriginal Day is Sunday, June 21. Rustad will be in Prince George at a ceremony to rename Fort George Park to recognize the original inhabitants, the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation. A Lheidli T’enneh flag will be raised at city hall where it will be perma-

nently flown.National Aboriginal Day events

are planned around the province, including a three-day cultural fes-tival at the Royal B.C. Museum in Victoria with dance, arts and crafts and traditional foods.

The past year has been piv-otal for aboriginal relations in B.C., with the Supreme Court of Canada’s landmark decision recog-nizing aboriginal title to traditional territory of the Tsilhqot’in Nation

near Williams Lake. The province is working on a

protocol to manage access by non-aboriginal people to the Nemiah Valley, where provincial jurisdic-tion no longer applies.

While progress in treaty negotia-tions has been slow, the B.C. gov-ernment continues to reach resource revenue sharing agreements with First Nations around the province, covering forestry, mining and oil and gas projects.

The Similkameen Valley is home to another win-ning sports team.

The Peewee Reds baseball team pulled off three straight wins this past weekend to win the South Okanagan Minor Baseball Championship.

The boys had to come from a lower seed after dropping their first two play-off games during the week. Losses to both the top-ranked Summerland Chiefs and the second ranked Penticton Mariners put the Similkameen Reds in a tough lower-seeded position but then they stormed back with a win against the best West Kelowna team on Saturday and then they got their revenge on the Penticton Mariners Sunday morning.

The team came out fast and furious, crushing the ball and playing stellar defence to comfortably win and eliminate the Mariners. That set up a rematch against their arch rivals from Summerland in the

Championship final. Zack Reigling pitched two solid innings, yielding just one run against a potent offence. The boys jumped all over their pitchers and smacked balls all over the place to jump out to an 8-1 lead. From then on, the rock-solid defence and precise pitching allowed the Reds to roll to a 10-6 win.

Every player contributed to the championship win.

“We have a team that relies on everyone doing their part. Baseball is a team game and our team came ready to play and produced a championship because of it,” said coach Shawn Carter. “These boys have only played organized baseball for a couple of years now and they keep improving every game. It all came together this past weekend and we couldn’t be prouder of them. They are the champs.”

Terry Fox foundation looking for run organizer

“Even if I don’t finish, we need others to con-tinue. It’s got to keep going without me” the words spoken by a true Canadian hero.

Terry Fox had a single dream: a world without cancer. He sought to reach out to every corner of Canada, and beyond, when he embarked on his Marathon of Hope. Terry Fox ran the equivalent of a marathon a day for 143 days straight, on one leg, to raise awareness for the need for research funding. When his own cancer spread and he was forced to stop running, he challenged the world to continue pursuing his dream.

Terry Fox has inspired an incredible wave of change over the past 35 years with his legacy con-tributing to Keremeos’ rich history. The first Terry Fox Run in Keremeos was held in 1999 but unfor-tunately, the tradition has been missing for the past several years. The Run is an opportunity for people of a variety of backgrounds and ages to come togeth-er and contribute to the close to $700 million that has been raised world-wide in Terry’s name and has contributed to impressive and vital progress made in cancer research over the past three decades (for more information about Terry Fox funded research projects visit www.terryfox.org or www.tfri.ca)

“The Terry Fox Run is a 35 year tradition in Canada with over 700 communities participating each year from coast to coast. With our theme this year of “A dream as big as our country”, it leaves no question that the people of Keremeos would love to once again be a part of this dream,” says Donna White, Provincial Director for the Terry Fox Foundation British Columbia and Yukon.

If you wish to volunteer with a truly grassroots organization that values all contributions, and whose mission it is to fund innovative cancer research and bring Terry’s dream of a world free from cancer one step closer to becoming a reality, please contact Donna White at 604-464-2666 or [email protected] for more information.
