Keremeos RCMP calls up in second quarter

William Davies planted a variety of sun� ower seeds obtained through the Vessey Seed Company last spring. The � ve varieties of sun� owers in the garden at Mountain View Manor now range in height from less than a metre to almost three metres. Gardening has been a hobby of William’s for years.

Keremeos crime statistics for the second quarter of 2013 indicate a 16 per cent increase in calls to the RCMP.

Break and enters doubled from three to six compared to the same period last year. Two of those break ins occurred to village restau-rants on the nights of April 8 and

9. No suspects have yet been identi-� ed in those instances.

The Citizens on Patrol program continued to be very active during the second quarter of 2013, con-ducting regular weekend patrols through the village.

Six drug offenses were investi-gated during the quarter. A search warrant issued under the Excise Act revealed 6,000 cigarettes which were destined for illegal sale.

Seventy-seven warnings, 25 tick-ets and 15 alcohol related motor vehicle offences were recorded dur-ing the quarter, with eight 90 day Immediate Roadside Suspensions,

one 30 day IRP and three three - day IRPs.

The Restorative Justice Program has not yet launched in Kere-meos. A training opportunity for Keremeos community members is scheduled for October 18 - 20.

Currently there are no chronic offenders in the Keremeos detach-ment area. The detachment did not receive any tips relating to events in Keremeos during the second quar-ter.

The rash of incidents that took place in Keremeos last week will be re� ected in statistics for the third quarter.

news

Downtown Keremeos fell victim to two more sense-less break ins in the business block this week.

The owner and operator of the Crowsnest Bakery, Sascha Heincke, and Mark Mudahy were surprised and frustrated by an early morning break in at the bak-ery on Wednesday, August 21. The front door had been smashed and a small quantity of cash taken.

“Mark lost about $100, from the till,” said Heincke, “he left the shop about 4:30 a.m. and was back within the half hour. He’s convinced he knows who is respon-sible.”

Thursday morning, neighbouring business owners discovered the door to Me ‘n Bokboks Pizza had also been smashed.

Trevor Milton, operator of Bokboks, was cleaning up the pieces of broken door midway through Thurs-day morning.

“I have an alarm, but there was no call to my house,” he said.

“They didn’t take anything but a can of Red Bull, but they did leave some evidence, which I hope police will be able to use.” Milton figures the break in occurred around the same time as the bakery.

“It seems like the same pattern,” he reasoned. The two senseless acts netted thieves very little in

the way of cash, but have resulted in big bills for the businessmen.The bakery door was replaced at a cost of $400, but the Bokboks door requires custom work and will likely be a couple of hundred dollars more.

The break ins bear a similarity in method to two previous occurrences earlier this year in the business section. In early April, the Branding Iron and K Cafe were broken into over two consecutive mornings. In both cases, the front doors were smashed in order to gain entrance.

More senseless destruction took place Monday morning when Keremeos firefighters answered two calls for fires in newspaper boxes.

At 3:30 a.m. August 26, a plastic Western News paper box between Pharmasave and the Benja Thai Restaurant disappeared due to fire. The Keremeos and District Volunteer Fire Department were then called out once again around 6:30 a.m. to extinguish the con-tents of a metal Southern Exposure news paper box on 11th Avenue.

Another accident occurred in the Yel-low Lake area, less than five days apart.

At approximately 8:30 p.m. Wednes-day, August 21, a single vehicle MVA just south of Twin Lakes Road sent two people to hospital and shut down Highway 3A for over an hour.

Police, Kaleden fire department per-sonnel, and BC Am-bulance attended the scene. Two people were transported to hospital, and later released.

Traffic was backed up in both

directions for over an hour as emergen-cy personnel tended to a woman injured

in the crash. A green Nissan Infiniti was completely demol-ished in the crash.

Police are con-tinuing their inves-tigation into the accident. Alcohol

and speed are two factors also being investigated.

When it comes to public education, it seems like the only news that makes headlines these days are stories about budget cutbacks.

That presumably, was the intent behind six interior school board representatives who visited the Por-tage Keremeos youth rehabilitation centre last March.

They were look-ing for ways to cut the budget, but after a tour of the facility they had a change of heart. The cuts weren’t made - as a matter of fact, they actually increased the budget to Portage.

“The teachers who work here work for the local school board,” explained Portage Director Diane Power-Jeans. “Any funding comes from School District 53.”

Portage runs four classrooms at their Crossings facility, located six kilometres west of Keremeos. Teachers instruct three days each week through the school year and two days each week during the summer. There is an additional part time art teacher, in addi-tion to a Teaching Assistant.

“They said, ‘Wow, what a wicked program,’” Power-Jeans added. “They couldn’t understand why our beds weren’t full.”

“Six retired school superintendents toured the facility in March,” explained School Liason Of-ficer Steve Pozzobon, “as part of a provin-cial audit team. They were very impressed with what they saw at Portage. As a result, funding to provide increased program-ming is being made available.”

There are currently 12 residents under-taking the Portage program. During an average six month

stay at the facility, residents have the opportunity to get as many as two years academic credits - some can actually achieve their high school graduation.

Math, science and English is taught at Portage. Art instruc-tion, woodworking and personal devel-opment are on the books, and a cafete-ria program is now underway.

“I think it’s one of the things that keeps kids here,” said Power-Jeans. “Kids grab onto it - they can actually do something with it.”

That’s the way Portage resident Shantell feels. The 18 year old is currently taking phys Ed and math courses, and intends to become a Registered Nurse.

“I’m planning to go to Thompson Rivers University af-ter my outward grad studies,” she said. “I won’t be quite finished my grade 12 when I leave here, but I will finish my courses at home and graduate in 2014. “

Shantell has com-pleted half of her program at Portage.

“This is the best place, school wise,” she said enthusias-tically, noting the benefits of small classes and the one to one relationships in learning that is available at Portage.

“Most of us don’t know how to study. Naomi and Cody (Portage teachers)give us the skills - and they don’t give up.

I like the setup. Older students assist the younger ones, there’s lots of per-sonal help. I’m really grateful for that, and I really respect the teachers here.”

Portage gets its teachers through the You Learn program, which has learning centres in Oliver, Osoyoos and Kere-meos. In addition to providing instruc-tors to the Portage program, You Learn also caters to home

schooled and adult students.

“The majority of students at Portage do better - but the educational training goes hand in hand with the therapy,” said Cody, a three year teacher at Por-tage.

“The problems that turn them to their addictions are the same ones that don’t allow them to succeed in school,”

he added, “as they get organized, learn to structure their lives and deal with stress, their abilities in school also im-prove. The access to professional therapy gives them an op-portunity to get the social, emotional and educational focus they need.

Kids suddenly discover they can do this, they can get an education.

It’s a pretty amaz-ing experience, to watch these kids put in the effort, come clean, and have them realize, ‘I can learn.’

I feel strongly that there is a need for this system in more places than Portage,” Cody concluded, “there should be a set up in every elementary and high school in the province - Portage could be used as a model.”

Tim Cottrill of Robin Ridge Winery. This year’s summer weather was generally good to Similkameen vineyards, creating conditions for a vintage year. The winery was picking table grapes last week.


“I got up this morning, ready to spray, stepped outside and felt a few raindrops,” said Robin Ridge Winery’s Tim Cottrill last Friday, August 23.

“I began cutting grass, then realized it wasn’t raining. I managed to get one sec-tion sprayed before a wind suddenly came up and the rain really started.”

Fighting soggy weather has been the exception for growers in the Similkameen this year, however.

“We had a great winter, no significant temperature spikes - it looks good. We’re on target for a fine vintage this year,” Cot-trill said. “That hot week we had in May advanced the crop, with perfect weather at bud break.”

The Lower Similkameen has largely es-caped extreme or freakish weather this year, other than for a band of hail that covered Puddinghead Mountain on August 1.

“The mountain was white with hail, but I don’t think any growers were hit,” Cottrill said.

July and August saw a large number of days with 30 degree Celsius - plus heat,

but Cottrill doesn’t believe it was extreme enough to have shut down the plants.

Robin Ridge grows Chardonnay, Mer-lot, Pinot Noir, Gamay and Coronation grapes on 10 acres along Middle Bench Road. Cottrill began picking the Corona-tion (table grapes) this week - two weeks earlier than normal.

“We’ve experienced a strong and consis-tent market for the table grapes,” Cottrill said, adding that most of the grapes are sold in Vancouver.

Robin Ridge most recently received a gold medal for their Chardonnay at the All Canadian spring wine championships. They also picked up a best varietal award for their Gamay at the spring Wine Festival. Sooke Harbourhouse on the Lower Main-land features the winery’s Gamay.

“We are introducing a new wine this fall,” Cottrill noted, “ a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Savignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.

In spite of last Friday’s wet weather, pre-dictions for the remainder of the growing season don’t anticipate any major variances in the weather, good news for a harvest that looks like it could have excellent quality.

“The groundwork has been laid for a good harvest,” Cottrill concluded, “barring any massive weather changes, we could be looking at an early harvest in addition to being a great vintage.

Everyone’s excited about that.”

Good growing year for grapes - so far Growers cross fingers in anticipation of a great harvest as season enters final stage

Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer re-sponded to two citizen’s complaints regarding the state of the village’s boulevards and open spaces.

Bauer found that only four residential boulevards were not being maintained by the adjacent property owner. He noted further that two commerical property boulevards

were also not being maintainedProbably the biggest eyesore in the village

are the 10 empty commercial and privately developed lots that are not being maintained at present.

“There are some properties in the agricul-tural area that are growing crops, and there-fore not being maintained,” noted Bauer, who said he would pass the survey on to village staff for them to take further action on.

EditorialSomeone knows

somethingIt was a relatively calm and crime free sum-

mer in Keremeos - up until last week, at least. Two break ins on Seventh Avenue, that ap-

peared to mirror very similar events last April, left two Keremeos business owners shaking their heads in frustration.

The damage done to gain entrance to both businesses far exceeded the criminal’s take from the crime .

One of the businesses even had a sign on the door that stated there was no cash on the prem-ises, but the criminals broke the door any way.

Perhaps reading is an issue to these people.Similar break ins along Seventh Avenue in

years past have resulted in similar outcomes - damage far exceeding the amount taken from the business.

Earlier this week, police and fire department members answered calls to burning newspaper boxes in the village. In one case in particular, the proximity of the box to other flammable objects was such that this simple act of stupidity could have resulted in a much greater loss of property, or a threat to someone’s life.

The crimes appear to be happening dur-ing the early morning hours. As Keremeos detachment commander Martin Trudeau puts it, “There are people out there who definitely know what happened and we want to hear from them.”

The people committing these acts haven’t shown a large degree of intelligence so far, so it would appear they have just been lucky not to have been caught yet.

Hopefully, there’s an early bird in Keremeos who looked out the window or happened on the street at the right time, who can provide the police with the information they need to get this loutish, destructive behaviour off the streets, before serious damage or harm is done.

My wife became in-terested in Welsh Terriers after our Newfy Pyrenees cross died last year, but we were having a hard time finding one. The breeders that we spoke to all had waiting lists.

We finally found a breeder within driving distance and drove down south of the line one weekend to pick up An-gus. He seemed like a quiet dog, falling asleep in his kennel on the ride home.

Eight months later, we’ve gotten to know the real Angus.

He’s pretty much full grown now - about 20 inches high, 25 pounds of pure craziness. I call him “Crazy dog” as often as I do Angus. He lis-tens equally well to both monikers.

We were not all that familiar with terriers, as neither of us had ever owned one.

The best descriptors I can think of for this little beast is “mischievous,” “ impish” and “incor-

rigible.”Last year, I spent most

of the spring building fences to keep the deer in our neighbourhood out. I spent most of this spring building more fences to keep Angus in.

If Angus gets it in his mind that he wants to go somewhere, or chase something, there doesn’t seem to be anything hu-manly possible that can be done to stop him. I began installing three foot high fence to keep him in; I fin-ished with four foot fence, and I’m doubtful whether that will be enough to stop him.

Angus delights in stealing whatever it is you might be working with, or whatever happens to be lying around - shoes, brooms, gloves, tools (my wife found a pair of pliers that had gone missing, buried in the yard) and running around the yard, hoping someone will give chase - a blissfully happy 25 pound bundle of curly fur and pure joy, his back feet kicking sideways ever so slightly in cheekiness.

His favourite pastime is

ball chasing. He can fetch for hours, then bring the ball into the house to toss it around by himself, if he has too, using his mouth. He reminds me of a gam-bling addict who can’t put the dice down.

My wife has always seen the need for disci-pline, but Angus usually makes me laugh, even when he’s at his precocious worst. I find his boundless energy and “sworn to fun, loyal to none” attitude too endearing to ever disci-pline him for.

That changed last week, however. We went camping up at Jewel Lake and took Angus out for a kayak. We stopped at a boat launch midway up the lake to give him a break from swimming, and somehow, he man-aged to wriggle out of his life jacket, and his leash.

As soon as he realized what he had done, it was like he’d broken out of prison. He gave us a look that said, “I’m free at last! I’ll send you a postcard!” And he was gone.

Well, actually, he began to make ever increasing

exploratory circles of the area, making sure we were still nearby, but not allowing himself to be caught, and getting bolder with each free minute. Attempts to entice him to within our grasp were ignored.

With visions of him disappearing into the for-est, totally at the mercy of any animal out there, we were fortunate that he was attracted to some people at a nearby cottage. Ever the social dog, he man-aged to get through their fence, where, luckily, the cottage owner was able to grab hold of him for us.

I realize now that, somehow, this impetu-ous little pooch needs to understand and obey his master’s commands.

I’m sure we’ll eventu-ally get through to him - I can see we are making progress, but it is slow. And I guess I’ll have to do my part and provide Angus with some back up discipline, rather than leave it all in my wife’s hands.

Tomorrow, for sure. Today, he’s just too cute.

There doesn’t seem to be any stopping this “holy terrier”By Steve Arstad [email protected]


community

Part threeResidents of Olalla are discovering a new

found pride in their community, spearhead-ed by a local group of concerned citizens known as the “Friends of Olalla.”

The group is dedicated to improving the public’s perception of the community by subtle improvements to tidiness of the com-munity, and recently by the construction and placement of identifying signs at either entrance to the hamlet.

In a further effort to improve public perception of the community and provide residents with a link to Olalla’s colourful past, the Review will be running a series of articles in the coming weeks that describe Olalla’s proud links to the past, as well as its signi� cance to the development of the Lower Similkameen.

Auntie Doll is a 95 year old resident of Olalla, and has graciously shared her view of Olalla through the years. She was born in 1918 and her � rst memories were of school, and the school building was in what is now known as “Lower Olalla” which is the portion below the highway. The road through town originally came in from the north as it does now, but on the lower west side (where Cherrywood MHP is) and then turned east, towards “Lower Olalla” where Main Street is now.

Mining was big in Olalla in the early 1900s, but as with all gold rushes it only lasted a short time, 10 years at most, before the mines were tapped out. There was one gold mine in Olalla; there was also a cop-per mine (known as Copper King) in the mountains behind, and a third mine called the “Bullion” in Lower Olalla. There is talk that there is gold in Olalla - directly under the town itself!

In Dolly’s school days she actually did a school project on the history of Olalla called “Bachelors and Tin Cans.” The bachelors were miners that stayed after the mines closed, and the tin cans were actually antiques that people came into Olalla to � nd, buried by past residents.

Dolly’s best memories come from the early days of carefree living, when the town was less populated. As people from the crowded cities came into the country and Olalla became more populated, life became less carefree and more stressful.

The most exciting events in Dolly’s eyes were the two � oods of 1948 and 1972. The whole area became � ooded, and the local authorities came in quickly to get people out during these times. As a result changes were made to the road, some bridges were built, and now we see Highway 3A built above the marshy valley � oor, aligned straight through the community.

One of the earlier gathering places dur-ing the busy gold rush was the “Big Grand Hotel,”which was situated near Seventh Street past the creek. Dolly remembers peeking into the hotel on her way to school.

Concerts and plays were held at the school, and at one time there were cafes, a local hall and store, and a post of� ce. What is now known as Zack’s used to be called “Chuckers” (after the local birds). This place has changed hands many times, and has been many things including a gas sta-tion, garage, cafe, and dance hall.

The winters before 1944 were severe, bitterly cold and lots of snow. But since that time the weather has shifted to what is now moderate temperatures and little snow.

Dolly and her family used to go sleigh riding by walking up the mountain road, which took about an hour, then piling three to four onto the sled and speeding down the mountain, getting as far as Olalla Creek.

The original land developers, including Dolly’s grandfather Frank Surprise and his partner, Mr. Barslow, came from the California gold rush days in Sacramento, California. They came to Olalla, staked claims and mined them, and also raised cattle. When the Olalla mines tapped out they moved on to the Fraser, Cariboo and Hope areas.

The land developing process worked in such a way that, when unclaimed land was discovered, it was staked out with a sign or tag identifying the owner. After a period of time this was registered, and the land had to be shown to improve over time

Frank Surprise had a ranch north of Olalla which stretched all the way to Olalla. The community had drainage problems in the spring. Surprise used manual labour, mostly Chinese ( who came here to work the mines and railroads) to clear the area so the water could � ow freely into the creeks. This clearing was done every few years to keep the land from � ooding, and the � elds were sown with hay at the time.

The Chinese community worked in the mines, especially in Tulameen. Some of the native Indians worked in the town but not in the mines. There was actually a Chinatown in Lower Olalla, behind the Big Grand Hotel. There was some noteriety about a particular Chinese man who was reported to have shot his two partners in town after a card game went bad.

Keremeos has changed its location over the years. Originally located close to where the “Tree to Me” complex is, it moved to the Bears Fruit Stand area before moving to the present location after the railway came into the Similkameen.

In times past there wasn’t much interac-tion with local wildlife, but in recent times we’ve seen cougar and bears because they are getting used to people.

news

Police are requesting the public’s assistance in providing information which may help in the following investigations :

First, police are investigating the report of a hit and run motor vehicle incident which took place on Saturday, August 17 at ap-proximately 11 p.m. on Hwy 3 by Schneider Road, just around the corner from the police detachment.

The victim was driving a red car and was struck from behind by an-other vehicle who was likely travel-ling too fast. The suspect vehicle was described as being a black or dark sport utility vehicle, possibly a Toyota, and simply drove past the red car and sped away after the collision.

This dark SUV should have sig-ni� cant damage to the front bum-per area, possibly with red paint marks on it. No one was seriously injured but the occupants of the red

car did suffer from whiplash.“This could be a case where

someone may try to explain recent unusual damage or marks to their vehicle or to a vehicle they bor-rowed from someone” reported Coporal Trudeau.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Keremeos RCMP Detachment or Crime Stoppers.

Police are also seeking the pub-lic’s assistance in solving the break and enter of two Keremeos busi-nesses on Seventh Avenue, which took place approximately 24 hours apart.

Wednesday morning at approxi-mately 4 a.m. (August 21) someone smashed the glass front door of the Crowsnest Bakery, broke into the till and stole an undisclosed amount of money before running away.

Then at approximately the same time the next morning, someone smashed the front door of Me ‘n

BokBok’s Pizza across the street, causing the same type of damage before ri� ing through the till which had been left empty as a preventa-tive measure by the owner.

“There is a sign on the front door which clearly stated that no money was being left on the premises but evidently, the culprits couldn’t read.” said Corporal Trudeau.

“We contacted members of the Forensic Identi� cation Section to have the scenes examined for foren-sic evidence which may help solve this crime but the evidence which often helps the most comes from the eye and ears of people from the community,” he added.

“There are people out there who de� nitely know what happened and we want to hear from them, either directly, or anonymously through Crimes Stoppers.”

Keremeos RCMP can be con-tacted at: 250-499-5511. Crime Stoppers may be reached at: 2501-800-222-8477

Police seeking help from the community in two investigations

The door of Bokboks Pizza was one of two busi-nesses vandalized last week in downtown Kere-meos. Damage far exceeded valuables taken in both incidents.


The South Okana-gan Victim Assistance Society (SOVAS) recently received a grant of $3,500 from

the Community Foundation of the South Okanagan - Si-milkameen to improve of� ce space for their victim services and counselling programs.

The grant from the South Okanagan - Similkameen went towards purchasing a larger seating area, an additional work sta-tion and of� ce furni-

ture to help our of� ce run more ef� ciently and to create a more welcoming space.

SOVAS provides victim support ser-vices and counseling

services to approxi-mately 1,200 women and men per year who have experienced abuse and violence. In addition to client services, SOVAS is

active in community fundraising, educa-tional and awareness initiatives.

The Community Foundation of the South Okanagan

- Similkameen has served this region for over 20 years, working with donors to create legacies in the form of permanent endow-ment funds.

Madeline Chapple celebrated her 106th birthday at Orchard Haven in Keremeos on Friday, August 23.

The year Madeline was born - 1907- Henry Ford sold 2,500 Model R’s, the Kenora Thistles won the Stanley Cup, and Oklahoma became the 46th state.

Surrounded by family and fellow resi-dents, the centagenarian appeared much younger than her physical age would indi-cate, resplendent in sparkling jewellery and

a small tiara.Madeline spent much of her life in Cha-

tham, Ontario. She moved west to Williams Lake when she was 80, living independently until she was 98 years old.

She was one of the first residents of Ky-alami Place when it opened in 1998, moving to the Orchard Haven wing six years ago.

Madeline celebrated her big day with a noon hour birthday party, with son Ralph and daughter in law Susan at her side.

Josh Vissia is spending this summer soaking up the sun at Keremeos pool. The 18 year old, 2013 graduate of Similkameen Elementary Secondary School began work at the pool in June. He’ll be done in late August, just in time to begin studies at the University of Fraser Valley in Abbottsford, where he is beginning a five year program to earn a Bachelor of Child and Youth Care degree.

Keremeos Library wrapped up their summer reading program on August 23 with a farewell party that saw 70 reading medals handed out.Above, Breeanna and Alexis Ward were two of the many participants who also received certificates and prizes for numerous contests that took place over the summer holidays.“Everyone got a prize and there was an amazing amount of reading done,” said librarian Debra Holley.

Wendy and Stephen Hunt were on a recent trip to Europe to visit their daughter, Ashley Hunt, who is living there as a nanny. They took their copy of the Review newspaper to share with their daughter. Wendy reports that her daughter enjoyed the copy of the Review, and that they had a wonder-ful holiday.

From right, J.J. Little, Jordan Little and Mark Peron enjoy some deck time on the � nal day of swim-ming at Keremeos pool .The pool closed to the public on August 22, with lessons on the 23rd to wrap up this year’s pool schedule.Bowling begins at the recreation centre on September 16.


The regional district will be paying more in Workers Com-pensation premiums this year after failing to achieve Certi� -cate of Recognition (COR) status.

The Regional District Okanagan Similkameen has partici-pated in the COR program (a provincial program that re-wards employers who develop and implement safety manage-ment systems based on industry standards) since 2010. The RDOS achieved COR status for its workplace safety program and its return to work program in 2010 and successfully com-pleted internal audits in each of the subsequent two years.

This year, the regional district failed to achieve COR status following an April audit.

Chief Administrative Of� cer Bill Newell told the board at the August 15 board meeting that program guidelines that outlined how corporations are recognized were changed, resulting in a lower audit.

“Peripheral organizations are now reviewed separately,” Newell told the board, noting that � re departments and recreation committees had previously been audited as part of the core organization. The new guidelines required them to be audited as stand alone departments, which resulted in de� -

ciencies having a bigger effect on the overall score. The regional district achieved a score of 55 per cent on the April audit, against an overall passing requirement of 80 per cent. (In 2010, the regional district scored 81 per cent.)

One particular criticism in an executive sum-mary of the audit report, released on August 21, noted that “Few recommendations from the 2010 audit were implemented, particualarly where peripheral operations are involved. Many recommendations made in 2010 were made again in this audit.”

Another recommendation called for the RDOS to “consider providing a dedicated safety resource person to the � re departments to be responsible for developing standards, operating procedures and overall safety management.”

The released copy was also edited to remove references to the speci� c peripheral departments selected for audit.

Newell advised the board that the Health and Safety Committee was working on the peripheral departments.

“We have work to do with volunteer � re and recreation departments,” he said.

COR certi� cation was worth $15,000 to the regional district in WCB premium rebates.

The COR program requires an external audit every fourth year. In 2016, to recertify, the regional district would require the services of a con-tracted consultant to administer the audit, the cost of which could be as much as $10,000.

Corporal Martin Trudeau provided council with a quarterly update at the Monday, August 19 meeting of Keremeos council.

He presented two quarterly reports to council, the second one describing police activities since Trudeau took over duties as acting area commander after Area Com-mander Mike Gallagher was tem-porarily reasigned to Princeton.

Trudeau told council that the � rst quarter of this year resulted in 60 more calls for service from the RCMP over last year, including a doubling of break and enters from three to six.

Trudeau also noted that farm-workers issues were a focus for the RCMP over the summer.

“We can’t resolve these issues, but they are manageable,” he told council, adding that he had taken on a zero tolerance policy with respect to transient misbehaviour.

Corporal Gallagher will be returning to Keremeos in a month or two, as the position in Princ-eton has now been � lled. Another member of the local detachment has been transferred to a special unit, and Trudeau said that he, too, would soon be returning to his previous posting in Penticton.

“You’ve done a really good job. Congratulations on your efforts with local business,” Mayor Manfred Bauer told Trudeau.

Peter Robinson and Carol Suhan, on behalf of Fortis BC, presented the Community Energy Association’s South Okanagan Similkameen En-ergy Diet to council.

The program, which in-volves enhanced opportuni-ties to take part in residential energy ef� cient upgrades, was introduced to regional district directors on Aug.15.

Council agreed to take part in the program by offering a $25 subsidy to 25 homeowners in the village taking part in the program.The village’s par-ticipation will enble it to claim greenhouse gas emission reduc-tion credits.

Council received a congratu-latory letter from the Green Com-munities Committee for achieving Level one recognition in making progress to reduce the community’s greenhouse gas emissions.

A letter from a Keremeos resi-dent requesting a policy change regarding the mowing of alleyways and boulevards was received for information, with a promise to the resident that a report from staff would be forthcoming regarding

the request.Two other letters - one con-

cerning a legal opinion regarding the production of packaging and printed paper by local governments - and another concerning a Union of BC Municipalities request for feedback regarding proposed revisions to federal policy regard-ing the addition of land to Indian reserves were received for informa-tion.

Policy change requested to boulevard maintenance at council meeting

Mayor Bauer lent some assistance to a resi-dent whose adjacent boulevard had gotten too weed infested for her to maintain last week.



health

As the title of this article implies, what you consume immediately following your workout is almost as impor-tant as the workout itself. Every time you exercise, you deplete a significant amount of your stored muscle glycogen (carbohydrates) as well as your amino acid pool, and the stress of that exercise breaks down and damages your muscle cells. The good news is that those muscle cells grow bigger and stronger (provided they are properly nourished) so they can better handle that stress in the future. However, the effects of exercise are quite catabolic. You drain your fuel supplies, you eat up the circulating protein in your system, you distress your muscle cells and depending on the intensity of the activity, you may burn some muscle tissue for energy along the way. Additionally, the adrenal hormone cortisol is released. Although an important hormone, it is the bad guy in athletics because it assists in the conversion of existing muscle tissue into fuel. All this adds up to a highly catabolic environment that breaks down, burns up and empties your reserves. Making the transition from that exercise induced depleted state to one of recovery, repair and growth is the tricky part. Fortunately, a wonderful window of opportunity presents itself right at the time we need refuelling the most. For an hour or so after a workout your body’s ability to absorb and utilize nutrients is exceptionally high. With a well-timed protein shake following a workout, you not only replenish and refuel yourself, you also shift gears from the catabolic environment an anabolic one that begins the growth, recovery and repair process. This high absorption window of opportunity is short lived. If you do not reload during that first critical hour, chances are you will linger in a catabolic state for hours. A protein shake, ideally consumed within 30 minutes after exercise containing both good quality carbohy-drates and a high biological value protein source is the simple solution. The obvious combination is a fruit juice based shake or smoothie that includes whey protein. This type of shake is quickly and easily digested (much quicker than solid food) and almost immediately initiates the recovery process. Not only do the carbohydrates replenish your glycogen stores, they also encourage the release of insulin, which plays a significant role in the transportation and uptake of the pro-tein in your shake. As far as protein powder, a clean high quality whey protein concentrate is a sensible choice, but if your budget permits it, you can’t beat cross flow microfiltered whey protein isolate. It has both an outstanding protein percentage and biological value, two important considerations. Feel free to add other ingredients and nutritional supplements to your post workout shakes. Creatine, glutamine, and flax seed oil are all valuable additions. Remember, your workout really isn’t over when you put down that last dumbbell or step off the treadmill; it’s when you unplug and put away your blender.

WORLD DIABETES DAYWorld Diabetes Day is on November 14. Diabetes is recognized as a world epidemic. The number of people that will be diag-nosed with Type II diabetes is expected to rise dramatically over the next few years. By controlling our weight, exercising, we can have a great effect on our chances of getting the disease.

FOOT HEALTH & DIABETESIf you are a diabetic already, do you check your feet daily? Dia-betics often lose nerve sensitivity in their legs and feet. Note particularly any breaks in the skin to prevent any infection from occurring. It’s also extremely important to wear good comfort-able shoes.

RISK FACTORS FOR DIABETESPeople who are overweight are at a greater risk of becoming diabetic. If you want to lose weight, start by setting a realistic goal. Losing only 10% of your current body weight can go a long way to reduce your risk of heart disease, high blood pres-sure, osteoporosis and of course diabetes. No time like the pres-ent to start.

SIGNS OF DIABETESMany Canadians have diabetes and don’t know it. Here are some of the signs of diabetes; frequent urination, fatigue, exces-sive thirst, change in vision and tingling or lack of sensation in feet and legs. Once diagnosed, diabetes is very controllable. See your doctor if you are feeling these symptoms and particu-larly if there is a diabetes history in your family.

Our pharmacy has a complete selection of diabetic supplies. Combine that with all the diabetic knowledge possessed by our pharmacists, we are your Diabetes Centre.

I let this feeling of love travel throughout my physical body (especially my nervous system) and then extend it outwards into my energy fields. (If you were looking at me when I practice this process, you may see me as a bright warm loving light – that is my intention.)

Then I fill my fields with the colors of Red/Gold. These color rays are a vibration of safety to animal and when they sense you in their environment they feel that you are not a threat. After I have set the tone for my entry into an animal’s world, I just sit back and wait and accept whatever comes my way. It is like I move into a meditative state of being and just flow with all-that-is.

If you want to communicate with animals, it is important to: (Quoted from: Samantha Khury, Inter-national Communicator * one of my teachers)

1. Be in a place of Deep Love & Joy – a depth of love and appreciation for everything around you (including yourself), and especially for nature and the animal kingdom.

2. Be Non-judgmental – a sense of acceptance of things as they are being already perfect and a knowing that they are this way for a reason, even if we cannot understand what that reason maybe.

3. Be Open – open to new information by discarding old beliefs and attitudes that keep us from ac-cepting whatever comes in.

4. Feel Equality – a knowing that intelligence is within all species so that any sense of superiority is completely removed.

5. Respect – a profound respect for all life as special, unique and each with its own purpose. 6. Heal old emotional wounds and traumas – especially related to fear and rage.

ZINC TO USE, OR NOT TO?As Fall approaches, thoughts turn to colds and how to prevent or shorten them. Zinc supplements are commonly suggested to help but shouldn’t be taken for more than a week or so. Too much zinc can rob our bodies of copper and too much zinc can cause other problems. See our pharmacists for advice.

WHAT’S YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE?The message about the dangers of high blood pressure is getting through to Canadians. We have one of the lowest average blood pressures in the world and because of this, deaths from heart attacks are greatly reduced. The “normal” blood pressure used to be 120/80. Now, doctors are preferring 115/75 as the goal.

SERVING SIZES VISUALIZEDTo combat obesity in American society, the U.S. government has come up with a better way to visual food quantities. One cup equals the size of a basefall. One serving is the size of a deck of cards. A computer mouse equals a medium potato while one pancake is the size of a CD. These common-placed items hopefully will help people reduce their food intake and lose weight.

NEW MEDS FROM NATURENew drugs are often discovered from natural products. An Asian tropical plant, the pinwheel flower, contains conolidine, a natural pain-reliever. Unfortunately the shrub contains so little of the drug that scientists have synthesized the same chemical in the lab. It represents a whole new class of pain-killers and shows much promise in the future treatment of intense pain.If it’s new, we’ll know about it. Keeping up to date in our profession is our #1 goal.

Welcome 2013 - 2014 School Year

Students are periodically tested to gauge their progress on a variety of subjects. Although testing can be an effective way to determine a student’s understanding of a given subject, not every student performs well on tests. Test-taking comes easily for some but not so for others. Nerves or trouble concentrating can foil the best students. However, there are ways for students to improve their test-taking skills.

PreparationMost tests are given with prior notice, enabling stu-dents to prepare for them well in advance. Sometimes teachers and professors will surprise students with a quiz. These pop quizzes are used to judge how well students are absorbing the information and if they have been paying attention.When in class, continually jot down notes and create an outline of important information. The teacher may provide hints about the upcoming test, including emphasizing specific areas of focus or even revealing the format of the test. Con-trary to what some students believe, teachers want their students to succeed. Therefore, your teacher may offer a review session the day before or be open for questions prior to the test if further clarification is needed.Studying with others can shed new light on a subject. Studying difficult subject matter with peers may help students grasp the materials better than they did in class. Classmates may have some tricks they’ve developed, in-cluding pneumonic devices for putting facts together.

The day before and the day of the testPrior to a test, make sure you eat and get enough rest. While it may be tempting to pull an “all-nighter,” you will not perform well on the test if you are tired from having studied all night. Review the material and put the main ideas or formulas onto a sheet that can be quickly re-

viewed. Review it many times and then put it away. Have a good meal, relax and try to get at least eight hours of sleep.On the day of the test, wake up and arrive on time or even

a few minutes early for your class. This can help to calm your nerves and enable you to squeeze in some last-sec-ond studying.

The test itselfMake sure you have the supplies needed for the test. This may include pens or pencils, a calculator, a textbook if you are allowed to reference, or any other supplies the teacher allows. Have a watch available so that you can pace yourself during the test. Avoid using a mobile phone during the test, as the teacher may mis-interpret that as cheating.Try to remain positive through the test. If you feel yourself getting nervous, take a few deep breaths and regroup. In addition to these tips, there are other ways to approach the test.* Do the easiest problems first. If you do not know a

question, skip it and move on. There may be clues later on in the test that help you go back and answer skipped questions.* Always read the entire question. Skimming could find you missing important instructions.* Look for words that may help you determine the answer, such as “all,”“never” or “none.” They may present clues to the answer.* Pay attention to your work and only your work. Do not be distracted if others finish before you.* If there is time, go back and look over the test. Make sure that all the questions have been answered and check for any careless mistakes. Proofread any essays and short answer questions.Preparing well for a test, remaining calm and checking over your work can help students who struggle with test-taking do their best.

Once a school year begins, many students spend more time in the classroom with their teachers than they do at home with their parents. That’s especially true in dual-in-come households where both parents work outside of the home.Though many parents would love to spend more time with their children, doing so can be difficult when both parents must go to work every day. Because kids spend so much time with their teachers, it’s important for parents to work toward building a strong parent-teacher relation-ship. Such a relationship fosters communication, which can help a young student do his or her best in and out of the classroom, something that’s a goal for parents and teachers alike. Parents interested in developing a strong relationship with their kids’ teachers can take several steps to make that happen.* Meet your child’s teacher at the beginning of the year. Teachers have many students come in and out of their classroom on any given day, so it can be hard for teachers to initiate a relation-ship with parents. Parents have signifi-cantly fewer children to look after, so they should take the first step toward building a relationship with teachers. Introduce yourself at the onset of the school year, providing phone numbers and e-mail addresses where you can be reached. Let the teacher know

you’re available for discussion any time during the school year and that you look forward to the coming school year and working with the teacher as the year progresses.* Attend “Back to School Night.” School events like an open house or a “Back to School Night” are a great way to help kids grow acclimated to their school. But such events also make great opportunities for parents to learn more about their kids’ teachers than they might have learned during their introductory meeting. Such events may allow teachers to explain the curriculum for the upcoming year, and teach-ers may feel encouraged when parents show an active interest in such events. * Prioritize parent-teacher conferences. Par-ent-teacher conferences are a great opportunity for parents to speak to their children’s teacher one-on-one. Unlike an introductory meeting or an open house at the beginning of the school year, a parent-teacher conference allows parents and teachers to specifically discuss students in private. Teachers may provide insight into how a child is performing and behaving in the classroom, offering advice as to how to improve that performance or suggestions as to how to encourage kids to keep up the good work. Such

conferences may be your only opportunity for a one-on-one, in-person discussion about your child, so make sure you’re on time and that you don’t miss these conferences. Your child’s teacher will appreciate it, and you can use this as an opportunity to ask any questions you have about your child.* Keep the channels of communication open. If it’s been awhile since you’ve spoken to your child’s teacher, don’t be afraid to e-mail the teacher to check in or see if you can lend a helping hand. In addition, if your child really enjoys a teacher’s class, don’t be hesitant to share that with the teacher. Teachers appreciate compliments just like other professionals, and parents should express their gratitude to those teachers who are working hard to make learning fun for their youngsters.Establishing a strong relationship with a child’s teacher can help parents ensure students are making the most of their time in the classroom.

Judy Sentes was elected, by acclamation, vice chair of the Okanagan Similkameen Regional Hos-pital Board at the August 15 regular hospital board meeting.

Regional District Okanagan Similkameen Chief Administrative Of� cer Bill Newell updated the board on the progress of capital projects for 2013. In the Similkameen, a $290,000 electrical upgrade of the Similkameen Health Centre is nearly com-plete.

Newell also noted that contractors had been se-lected for the Penticton Regional Hospital Patient Care Tower business plan study.

The companies selected to provide consulting services are:

· Architectural services: IBI Group· Electrical services and IMIT services: Genivar

Inc.· Mechanical services: Genivar Inc.The hospital board also approved a recommen-

dation endorsing the Patient Care Tower project by requesting letters of support from all RDOS member municipalities, electoral areas and Indian bands within the OSRHD.

The board also discussed the desire to have the business case study completed earlier, rather than later in 2014.

Some discussion also took place with respect to how the remaining funding for the regional district’s share of the hospital project would be acquired, whether the remaining � nancing would come from reserves or future debt.

CAO Newell noted that the discussion would be one for budget talks. He further noted that the regional district currently raises � ve million dol-lars each year for health funding, but two to three million of that is required for capital budget expen-ditures.

BEVZDUANE PHILLIP: Beloved son of Mona Gair, left us too soon at the age of 47 on August 24, 2013 in Olalla, BC. Duane was born in Comox,

BC on April 6, 1966. He spent his life enjoying the outdoors with a great love of life. He was a “driver extraordinaire” in both his personal and professional life. From building Chevy cars and trucks and his Peterbuilt to driving the same with the same natural born ability. His love of nature and the beauty of the world around him led him to enjoy and spend his time exploring it in his cars, trucks, quads and 4x4’s as well as he never missed an opportunity to share his experience with all those around him. Duane is survived by his daughter Sienna of Kaleden, BC; mother Mona Gair (Neil) of Olalla, BC; brother Raymond Bevz (Terry) of OK Falls, BC; sister Shelley Bevz (Mario) of Prince George, BC, and sister Tanya Bevz of Spillimacheen, BC. Duane will also be missed by many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and remaining family and close friends. Memorial service will be held at 11:00 am, Saturday, August 31, 2013 at the Keremeos Elks Hall, 502 Veterans Avenue, Keremeos, BC followed by interment at Marsel Family Cemetary, Hwy 3, Olalla.In lieu of flowers, a memorial contribution may be made to The United Way in Duane’s name.
