You know your heart benefits from exercise. Your brain does, too.

Studies show that regular, moderate

exercise -- 30 minutes of walking or a light one-mile run -- helps fight the effects of aging on the brain. No grueling

workouts required!

All types of exercise count, including

walking, bicycling, hiking, swimming,

aerobics, and weight training. Ballroom

dancing is another good one, especially fun on

chilly evenings.

Researchers believe exercise may stimulate the body to fight stress

that’s normally occurring in the brain -- stress that causes oxidative

damage. All that good stuff from a little

exercise!

Arthritis & Vitamin D

COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Dr. Warren Gage

familychiropractic

A common health challenge expe-rienced by many people unfortu-nately as they age is degeneration or osteoarthritis (OA) in the knees. This problem occurs when the carti-lage that acts as a cushion between the bones of the knee wears away, allowing the bones to painfully rub together. It is estimated around 4.5 million Canadians, or one in six, aged 15 years or older, report hav-ing arthritis.

It is still a commonly held belief that arthritis is just an “old-age” problem; and that as we age, we can expect arthritis to appear. However, new research is again showing that the lifestyle one leads, and specifi-cally, the diet one consumes, is a determinant for the chances of developing this problem. As with all health problems it is never just bad luck when problems arise.

A recent study sponsored by the US Department of Agriculture was completed by researchers at Tufts University in Boston Massachusetts who looked at circulating blood levels of both vitamin D and para-thyroid hormone (PTH) on the pro-gression of knee osteoarthritis in adults. PTH is involved in vitamin D metabolism. In this study, they followed 418 adults between 45 and 79 years of age for four years that had a knee joint that was showing signs of OA. Over the four years, they tracked the progression of the knee joint OA and compared that to their blood levels of vitamin D and PTH. Compared to the volunteers with healthy levels of Vitamin D, participants with low vitamin D levels had nearly twice the risk of

their knee degeneration progress-ing. People with both low vitamin D and low PTH showed nearly triple the chance of the OA progressing.

This research shows the impor-tance of having sufficient vitamin D levels in the blood. The recom-mended minimum levels of vitamin D intake suggested by Health Canada for under 1 year of age is 400 IU per day and over 1 year of age it is 600 IU per day. Health Canada also suggests the upper limit of daily intake of vitamin D for age 9 years to over 70 is 4000 IU per day.

My personal experience in prac-tice has been that the suggested maximum dose of 4000 IU may be a bit conservative. Many of my patients who have had their vitamin D levels measured in a blood test after regularly taking 4000-5000 IU’s per day, usually show up with-in the normal recommended range. So if one is only taking 500-1000 per day, they will probably show a less than ideal blood concentration. As each person is unique, I suggest my patients take 4000 IU of Vitamin D daily through the fall and winter months, and then in the spring have a blood test to see their levels. From this result one can adjust his/her consumption accordingly.

Considering all of the known health benefits of vitamin D, ensur-ing an adequate level is very import-ant. The product I sell in my office and personally consume is Genestra brand D-Mulsion 1000 which gives 1000 IU of Vitamin D3 per drop.

These days there is a growing movement to buy local food. Aside from environmental bene-fits and support for the local economy, there is something so rewarding about biting into a juicy peach at the peak of the season, purchased from a farmer who lives down the road.

But for an organization the size of Interior Health, which provides about five million meals each year across 55 sites, buying local isn’t such a simple matter. Food safety is key, logistics are a challenge, and the financial implications must be weighed.

Still, leaders within Interior Health believe it is important to buy fresh local food and support the local agricultural industry.

“We have been working steadily with suppli-ers to take advantage of all the great food that is grown, produced and processed right here in B.C.,” says Interior Health Regional Director of Support Services Alan Davies. “We use as much locally grown produce as possible in our care homes and hospitals, plus cheeses, herbs, sau-sages, and more. We also highlight locally grown foods on our cafeteria menus, such as Armstrong carrots. We try to purchase as many fresh fruits and vegetables in season as possible.

Overall, there has been a shift within Interior Health’s Food Services to provide fresher meals, with less sodium and using sustainable, green practices in our kitchens.”

“We’re always looking at new areas in which we can purchase locally. I would estimate that about 25 per cent of the produce we buy is local-ly grown, depending on seasonal availability. If you include bread and dairy, I would say about 30 per cent of all our food is purchased from within B.C.,” says Davies.

Interior Health works closely with food distri-bution company Sysco Kelowna to ensure food is not only of good quality and locally sourced when possible, but also that strict food safety measures are in place.

“If a recall occurs, we can have every custom-er notified within a two to three hour period,” says Sysco Kelowna Account Executive Ryan Thiessen.

Sysco only buys products from farmers who are certified GAP (Good Agricultural Practice). These GAP codes, standards and regulations have been developed by the international food industry, governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to provide consistent food safety and quality standards as well as meet requirements for certain trade needs and niche markets.

“Over the years, more co-ops have been estab-lished and more farmers are signing on to GAP, so we can take advantage of those items being available,” says Thiessen. “We can pretty much guarantee a B.C. apple about eight months out of the year.”

Growers such as Kelowna-based Angelo De Simone and his son Pierre are an important part of that supply.

“It’s very good to see more people interested in buying local food, including large organiza-tions like Interior Health. It means fewer green-house gas emissions and support for family-run farms like ours,” De Simone says.

“We are doing what we can and we encourage others in the community to look at their own purchases. B.C. has so much to offer in terms of buying locally produced food,” says Davies.

Buying local has many benefi ts

What does every kid want, grow-ing up on a small farm? A pony to ride and care for! Such was the case for my older brother Laurie, when Rabbit came along. He was a tough little cayuse, with a broom tail, pur-chased for $100 bucks from a Native man, Andy Felix, out on the Salmon River reserve. Smart, quick, and able to turn on a dime, Rabbit could just fly down our country roads. Andy will come up once again in our story. My sister also had a bay mare, so it was kinda horsey around our neck o’ the woods. But, read on, because who-ever thought for one minute that railway tracks and horses make for a unique story?

The US standard railway track gauge, like ours, is 4 ft. 8.5 inches. It was the English who designed the American rail system and tram-ways, using the same tools and jigs. The same went for building wagons pulled by horses in England. Imperial Romans built the first long-distance roads in Europe and England, for their armies.

Over time, Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts. Therefore, the US standard gauge of 4 ft. 8.5 inches is derived from those chari-ots’ wheels. Interestingly enough, these war chariots were just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. When you saw a space shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there were two booster rockets. These booster rockets had to be shipped by rail to the launch site. The rockets had to fit through a tunnel, coming from where they had been manufactured near Utah, so... a major space shuttle design, and a feature in what could be the world’s fastest transport system, and was determined over 2000 years ago, by the width of two horse’s rear ends! And you thought a horse’s ass wasn’t important!?

Really, though, I have my own ideas about the width of some hors-

es’ rear ends, and railway track width. SPCA Special Constable Brad Kuich and I paid a visit, one winter, to a complaint about a team of Clydesdale horses, used to give visitors wagon and sleigh rides up at Silver Star Resort, being given improper accommodations. The floor sloped inward allowing urine, feces, and bedding to collect under the animals’ bellies. The owner, a lady, started to correct the situation, while Brad and I marvelled at the size of these gentle giants in their stalls, while viewing their very large hooves and rear ends, in my estimation as an ol’ logger and bush rat, as being four axe handles across!

As a young man, Andy Felix, was tall and solidly built, with strong angular features. I guess you could say he was a lover of all things wild, including his range horses. I was about 10 years old when Andy brought Rabbit out to our farm, on the Back Enderby Road, but we would cross paths again years later, on a bright sunny morning on the Salmon River. I was walking down the river, looking for sunken nets, traps, and chicken wire hoop nets. These are composed of a long dry slender log suspended across the river about four feet high, with sup-ports being a tripod of stout short poles each side. Chicken wire is then strung across, forming a hoop. Below is a large drag log which the wire is stapled to. Swimming upriv-er in the dark, the salmon see the log as an obstacle, jump into the hoop, and are gathered up in the morning light. Just as I came upon a clump of thick willows, I heard the squeak of a barb wire fence, and there was Andy, long slender spear in hand, walkin’ out onto a log jam where the salmon congregate. I hol-lered, “Fishery officer, Andy, put it down,” and then we had the great-est discussion, all about the good ol’ days, horses, including little Rabbit,

wine, women, and country songs, and why we need conservation of Chinook stocks, on such a small run of salmon. Later on, Andy succumbed to severe burn injuries, after falling against a red-hot heater at his sister Rosie’s house on the reserve during a drinking party.

Here and there in the ShuswapAfter retiring from the DFO, I contracted with

the BC SPCA, as an animal cruelty investigator, teaming up with Brad, a retired RCMP officer. He was a dog handler, and during the course of his career, he went through three animals. We covered from Salmon Arm, Vernon, Grand Forks, to Golden. Many cases were of neglected or starved horses; these are the cases that bring tears to your eyes and break your heart. Brad wrote a book called “Hag’em: Memoirs of a Police Dog Handler,” and is a real interesting and informative read. It’s available through ama-zon.ca. Brad lives in Kelowna.

Hopefully, next week we will bring you a cou-ple of great recipes, one being a tomato juice cocktail; and the other, a burger sauce recipe you’ll love – all through the misadventures of Curly and Red Swenson, the two misfits.

LOOKING BACK TO THE DROUGHT OF ’87, ‘88It was tough being president of the Salmon Arm

Chamber of Commerce in 1987 because instead of pro-moting the town, my focus was on preserving the town during a drought that saw mud under the new wharf. Eugene Lalonde, administrator of CSRD, looked into ways of regulating the level of Shuswap Lake during the summer. He produced a detailed study, distributed copies and I still have one. He gave a report on the study to the chamber membership. This is the report from Salmon Arm Shoppers’ Guide, as it was called before Lakeshore News:

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HEARS OF STUDYOF REGULATING LEVEL OF SHUSWAP LAKE

Reprinted from Monday, March 21, 1988, Salmon Arm Shoppers’ Guide

By Sally ScalesEugene Lalonde, administrator of the Columbia Shuswap

Regional District, was the main speaker at the March 16 general meeting of the Salmon Arm & District Chamber of Commerce. He reported on the review he has made into the concept of raising Shuswap Lake every summer.

The study was instigated after Jack Brooke approached the regional district board to install gates under the Squilax bridge, similar to those near Whitehorse, to raise the level of Shuswap Lake during the peak tourism period. The board instructed its administrator to look into the matter, and Eugene has now circulated 40 or 50 copies of his report to various government agencies and tourism related businesses around the lake.

“We manage trees, agricultural land and fish,” he told the chamber. “Here we have a resource that’s flowing past our door and we are not managing it.” He emphasized that he was speaking in a technical capacity. He was not there representing the board.

“Shuswap Lake has a high fluctuation,” Eugene said. While he could not speculate if raising the level was good or bad, he said it is an intriguing concept. While there would never be an increase in the lake level during high water, it is possible to retain freshet water to better utilize the lake’s resource. Raising the level would add hundreds of acres for rearing fish. It could reduce the amount of milfoil. While there would be positives, there would also be negatives, he said.

Two systems for raising the lake are possible. One is a series of steel gates to hold back the water, and the other is an inflatable rubber tube, like a large sausage across the river, anchored along the bottom. The latter is made by Bridgetown. It started in Japan, and 1,000 such rubber tubes can now be found all over the world. It can hold back up to 20 feet of water.

Responses to the concept review should be in by the end of May. If there is sufficient positive feedback, the region-al board would likely approve the next step: establishing a task force of agencies working with the lake to study the plan. If they approve, then an environmental impact study would be made.

LAKE LEVEL STABILIZATION DIESAt the July CSRD board meeting, the concept of lake

stabilization of Shuswap Lake was shot down because it received a lot of opposition. Fifty copies of the survey were sent to a variety of people. Of the 25 respondents, five were in favour, 17 were against and three were some-where in between.

NORTH SHUSWAP CHAMBER PROPOSEDA BRIDGE FROM SALMON ARM TO SEYMOUR ARM

Following Eugene Lalonde’s presentation to the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce on March 16, 1988, Al Christopherson and Bob Rogers of Celista, members of the North Shuswap Chamber of Commerce, sold High ‘N Dry share certificates for a bridge that they proposed will be built from Salmon Arm to Seymour Arm. The certificates were available at the Shoppers’ Guide for a dollar, or could be ordered by sending two dollars to the North Shuswap Chamber of Commerce, Celista, B.C. V0E 1L0

ROOTS & BLUES FESTIVALA SMASHING SUCCESS

Sunday afternoon, everyone I spoke to at the Roots & Blues Festival in Salmon Arm deemed it a success. The first day, August 14, 2015 an evening thunderstorm and cloudburst cooled things off. Saturday the grounds were packed all day and evening. Sunday’s crowd was smaller but the music was great.

Sue Kershaw, president of Citizens’ Patrol, and I spent four hours patrolling all the R&B campgrounds twice, making sure all was well. Riding in a golf cart was cer-tainly easier than walking, as we were last year. We helped solve some problems, answered a few questions, and waved to many.

MANY NON-ROOTS & BLUES EXHIBITORSThe festival grounds had ever-so-many food conces-

sions and booths selling Canadian-made goods. On Sunday I visited the booths that were there because of the crowds: Shuswap Tourism, ShuswapTrail Rider, TD Bank, The Giving Tree, Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, R.J. Haney Village & Museum, CSRD with Invasive Species Society, Immigrant Services Shuswap, and Silver Creek Elementary PAC selling bottled water and taking donations for buying Montessori supplies.

The festival grounds seemed more open this year. The many trees planted by the society have matured and pro-vide most welcome shade, and there were many picnic tables throughout the grounds. It was an excellent festi-val!

B.C. WELCOMES 14 NEW FAMILY DOCTORSRural areas are welcoming 14 internationally trained

doctors to 11 communities, and all pledge to stay three years. Doctors trained outside Canada are spending three months with a B.C. physician who evaluates their skills. The BC Ministry of Health announced that single physi-cians will set up practices in Dawson Creek, McBride, Terrace, Quesnel, Hazelton, Invermere, Castlegar and Powell River. Fort St. John, Lillooet and Port Hardy will each welcome two general practitioners.

In the fall, another 16 doctors will arrive in the $2.8-million Practice Ready Assessment pilot program. They will work in small B.C. communities as part of a program to provide better primary health care in rural areas.

AGE OF CONSENT FOR MARRIAGE FOR WOMENCHANGED FROM SEVEN TO SIXTEEN

Dr. Kellie Leitch, Federal Minister of Labour and Minister of Status of Women, visited the Okanagan and stopped in Salmon Arm on Friday, August 14 for coffee with Conservative candidate Mel Arnold and supporters.

Afterwards, she and Mel knocked on a few doors and visited the Roots & Blues Festival.

Kellie is a practicing doctor in Ontario. When she was given the Status of Women portfolio she was horrified when she discovered that seven was the legal age of con-sent for women to marry. She and fellow MP Peter McKay changed it to 16.

In her portfolio, three major changes were made to assist women. The first was Women’s Entrepreneurship, chaired by Arlene Dickinson of Dragon’s Den, in which the government made $700-million capital available for women to access. The second was a Women’s Trade Mission, and the third was a large mentorship program for younger women.

ENDERBY WINEMAKER WAS RAISEDIN CROATIAN WINE TRADITION

Have a sample of wine from Waterside Winery at the Shuswap Farmers’ Market behind Centenoka Park Mall in Salmon Arm. Branko Juric, who owns the winery with his wife Debbie, is kept busy promoting and selling wine. He was so busy that I had to stop at both Tuesday and Friday markets to get information for this news item.

Branko was in mining, then he and Debbie owned gas stations, the most recent at Danforth’s Corner for six years. They have been growing grapes for seven years and making wine for three at 70 Waterside Road north of Enderby, between Highway 97B and the Shuswap River. www.watersidewinery.com and on Facebook.

FOOD FOREST WOULD NEED A VOLUNTEERLast week I asked what we would plant in a food for-

est. Terrance from Blind Bay wrote: “It’s possible that this idea could work in Salmon Arm but only because the possibility of abuse is less than it would be in Seattle. For Seattle, I think the plan will fail big time and is yet anoth-er ludicrous idea not at all suited for a large city with no end of ‘low lives’ and irresponsible people. Sad to have to say that but that’s the reality these days!

“Greed and abuse aside, I wonder how a partaker would know what would be considered fair and reason-able to remove. And on how many occasions is it right to do it. It might help if there were a volunteer on site taking donations for some worthy cause. People would be free to donate or not.”

WINNERS & DOLLARAMA COMING SOONIt’s great to see the activity near Walmart where

SmartCentres announced two more businesses will open in 2016: Winners and Dollarama. Salmon Arm has cer-tainly benefitted by having Walmart open in its second summer. Last summer not all tourists to the Shuswap knew we had a Walmart. The downtown has been so busy this summer that there is hardly a parking space available when I want it.

A new addition

103 years young

Sorrento Lions present bursaries

mallarkey by Daron Mayes

Oh no! Mall Arkey Junior’s family is expanding!

Don’t worry, my wife and I are not having another baby. I wouldn’t do that to our school system; they have enough challenges with the Junior Bean Counter!

Instead, we have now added a puppy to the mix, and his name is Jasper. I guess Duma and the kids weren’t providing me with enough material for my articles so I figured we needed to add a little excitement.

Speaking of Duma… she has been good with Jasper from the start. However, that doesn’t mean she doesn’t put him in his place once in a while when he gets a little too ram-bunctious. It’s like she is saying, “You might be the new pet in town and I’ll tolerate you, but just remember who owns this place!”

At this point, Jasper doesn’t seem to mind being smacked around by Duma now and again. He just thinks she’s playing with him, which usually ends in Jasper chasing her and eventually Duma climbing a tree.

It took about 24 hours, but eventually the kids realized that having a puppy is, in fact, a lot of work. So we’ve had to re-work the chore list too. Not surprisingly, feeding him and tak-ing him to the washroom is still a much more coveted job than helping with the dishes. We’ll see how long that lasts; especially when it is snowing outside!

The Junior Bean Counter thinks Jasper is the smartest dog in the world because he already plays fetch. In fact, Brendan is quite intrigued with the idea of teaching Jasper lots of tricks. I keep reminding him we need to focus our energy on training him to sit and stay and not worry about teaching him to waterski or jump through flaming hoops for the time being.

Overall, it is amazing how the addition of something so small can create so much excite-ment in a home. So stay tuned because I’m sure this won’t be the last you hear of him.

By Tom Fletcher, Black PressParents are spending the

money and feeling the love like never before from parties contesting the Oct. 19 federal election.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper expanded his favoured approach of direct payments, increasing the Conservative government’s child care bene-fit plan that has been compared to the former Family Allowance.

The increase was set up to produce bonus cheques to eli-gible parents in July, retroac-tive to the start of the year. Payments went up from $100 to $160 a month for each child under six, with a new $60 pay-ment for those aged seven to 17, payable to families regard-less of income or method of child care.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau responded by promising a modi-fied version that would phase out the benefit for high-income fam-ilies and increase payments for the rest.

Building into its calculations a proposed income tax cut for mid-dle and low-income people, the party estimates a two-parent family with an income of $90,0000 and two children would receive $490 a month tax free, compared to the Conservative program of $275 a month after taxes.

The Liberals calculate that a single parent with $30,000 income and one child would receive $533 a month, up from $440 under Conservative child benefit and tax rules.

NDP leader Thomas Mulcair has offered to retain the Conservative payments and

expand Quebec’s subsidized daycare program across the country, with a maximum pay-ment of $15 a day and a long-term goal of creating one million new spaces across the country.

Mulcair has said the Quebec program allowed 70,000 moth-ers to return to the workforce, and the NDP program would be available to private daycare operators as long as they are independent and not “big box” operations.

Green Party leader Elizabeth May is also offering a universal federally-funded child care program, including support for workplace daycare through a direct tax credit to employers of $1,500 a year.

The Green Party also wants to appoint a national children’s commissioner to advise gov-ernment on policy.

Politicians pitch to parents

Brian Butcher, President of the Sorrento Lions Club, presents Alyssa Leutlinger, a Kings Christian School graduate, with a bursary cheque to assist her in her post-sec-ondary endeavours. Alyssa is one of

four bursary recipients from the Sorrento area. Also awarded cheques were Salmon Arm Secondary graduates Amanda Darbyshire, Bella Cervantes and Hunter Wilchuk. Photo contributed.

Although Jim Kimmerly, (left) won’t be in the office, Edward Jones Investments is contracting him for one year to mentor his successor, Rob Hislop.Retirement & a new venture

After 15 years at Edward Jones Investments in Salmon Arm, Jim Kimmerly is retiring.

“It’s been a great career for me. I have great clients and I’ve enjoyed my past 15 years. I looked at retiring two to three years ago but in this industry, you have to plan that in advance. I wanted to hand it off to someone who was experienced, in the industry and local. It sounds like an easy thing to do but it’s not.”

Rob Hislop has gone through the Edward Jones train-ing, and Jim says he is leaving the office in good hands.

“He’s done really well. I feel confident about him tak-ing this on.”

Jim says in his time here, his most vivid memory is the way his clients reacted after 9/11.

“The markets were closed for a week and knowing they were going to open on that following Monday I came in around 6 a.m. The markets open at 6:30 and I thought I would have worried clients calling me. I waited until 7, no phone calls; 8, no phone calls. At 9 I started to call people. The clients were so good, they said, ‘We know what’s happened, the markets are going down but we know they’re going to go up again.”

Jim says the community has been good to him and he’s given back by volunteering in various capacities. He has been president of the Downtown Improvement Association, president of the Evening Rotary Club and most recently as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, a position he holds for one more week.

“I guess my Chamber highlight is the work we did with gas prices and bringing some price parity with the sur-rounding communities.”

Jim will remain a Chamber member but he is also get-ting involved with another organization that is dedicating itself to helping Salmon Arm’s economy.

“We’re not competing with the Chamber. We think our economy needs extra help. Salmon Arm’s average annual population growth is 1.1 per cent over the last five years and for a growing economy you need 4.5. We’re also looking at the housing prices. To get more young people to move here we need lower cost housing development. The organization (as yet unnamed) will have its first meeting in September. Anyone wanting more information can call Jim at 250-833-0623.

Shuswap Got It Maid Inc.There is a new cleaning busi-

ness, Shuswap Got It Maid Inc., that offers residential cleaning around the Shuswap.

“We will clean your house from top to bottom, including making the beds and folding laundry. We think of the little details - like emptying your toaster crumb tray - so you can come home to a stress free house.” says owner Emily Pothoven (left). “We’ll even vac-

uum and dust your car if you ask.”Although they’re new, they already have a reputation

for being fast, thorough, professional and affordable.“We have standard competitive rates but we also offer

discounts for seniors over 65, new/expectant mothers, and people who are ill or disabled. We also offer incen-tives to realtors and builders for referring us to clients that are in need of cleaning services.”

Besides doing regular residential work, Shuswap Got It Maid offers post-construction, move in/move out, pre or post party cleaning, seasonal or one time cleaning.

“We also have a lot of inquiries from people who are selling their homes or renting their vacation properties. We can make the house sparkle for the listing photos and open houses. People also call us to clean their homes after they’ve moved or before they move in. Moving and renting a home is stressful and we can eliminate the has-sle of extra work,” says Emily.

“We make a lot of our cleaning products with all-natu-ral ingredients and add essential oils for our own signa-tures scent. We are in the process of creating our own cleaners to sell because the cleaning products we make have been so well received.”

To contact Emily for a free quote visit shuswapmaid.com or email [email protected] or call 250-463-1110.Sunrise Business Development

Susan Robinson (right) named her new company Sunrise Business Development because the goal is to “create bright futures for small busi-nesses.”

She brings with her 15 years of experience business coun-selling, facilitating meetings and creating workshops.

“Business owners and man-agers struggle with issues on a regular basis,” says Susan. “Those issues may be related to financial management, staffing, marketing, or other aspects. We offer business counselling in any area.”

Susan offers workshops on any aspect from business plan research to customer relations to basic bookkeeping.

“Sometimes businesses need help getting staff to work as a team confidently and without conflict. I can deliver this in a variety of formats from short sessions during staff meetings to a two-day intensive workshop.”

Other services she provides include efficiency evalua-tions and developing operation manuals, service policies and staff training materials.

Susan delivered the Self-Employment Program as an employee of Community Futures Shuswap for four years. Prior to this Susan was a self-employed business consul-tant for approximately twelve years. As part of this busi-ness, she contracted with various organizations to teach subjects ranging from business plan preparation to book-keeping and various computer programs.

To contact Susan visit www.sunbiz.ca or email [email protected] or phone 250-515-2630. Her office is located at 121 Hudson Avenue. Drop Zone Weight Loss

“People are shrinking at the Drop Zone, but business itself is definitely growing,” says Shelley Balloun.

Drop Zone recently moved from the Harborfront Fitness building into their beautiful new office inside the former Honda building on the Trans Canada. Now, three and a half years into their business venture they have eight full-time staff in two locations.”

Considering what Shelley and her sister (and local art-ist) Sandra Van Den Ham started off with, this is an impressive entrepreneurial feat.

“We started out with thrift store decor, a tape measure and a donated lap top computer,” laughs Sandy.

The decision to step into the world of helping others

realize their weight loss dreams started within weeks of these two single moms discovering the answer to their own weight issues.

“In 2011, we were overweight and orbiting the magical age of ‘50.’ Exhausted from a family vacation to Disneyland, our aches and pains were grim reminders of the toll the excess weight had put on our bodies–a wake-up call that served to remind us that our youth and vital-ity was slipping away.”

Feeling and looking much older than their years, they were concerned about their health and being able to keep up with work and kids. Determined to get a handle on their weight, they implemented everything they knew about dieting, eating right and exercise but results were slim to none and they eventually lost hope.

“It was a scary moment when we actually considered resigning ourselves to being “comfy mommas” and just letting our bodies go. We laughed about it, but knew it really wasn’t funny,” says Sandy.

Having lived a life of yoyo dieting and turnstile weight loss programs, it only took two weeks from the point of discovering and implementing the Ideal Protein program to realizing they had stumbled upon something uniquely different.

When friends and coworkers started noticing the trans-formation and sharing their own stories, the sisters real-ized that although they had not been looking for a busi-ness, a business had found them. They knew if they could be successful on this program, anyone could!

Drop Zone opened their flagship centre in Salmon Arm in 2012, followed by a second location in Vernon in 2014. The dedicated team has supported clients from numerous Thompson/Okanagan communities amassing a current weight loss total in excess of 21,000 pounds.

To contact them, stop by their centre at 104-650 Trans Canada Hwy NE or call 250 833-1448. You can visit their website at www.dropzoneweightloss.com or email them at [email protected].

Mt. Ida’s fire scarred profile is a dominant landmark in the region. This favourite Shuswap area moun-tain provides a fun backdrop for a cycling route where you basi-cally ride ‘round the mountain.’ That’s a distance of about 75 kilometres. If that sounds too much or too little to you, shorter or longer variations of the route can be selected.

I didn’t start off by doing the complete loop. I began by riding from Salmon Arm out to Silver Creek and back, then worked up to going past Silver Creek far-

ther and farther before turning back. I also rode the other direc-tion, from the city out Hwy 97B and along Deep Creek Road to Hullcar Hall and back.

Finally, one day just a few years ago, I was able to ride the missing link and do the whole loop. Beginning from my house up the hill from downtown

Salmon Arm I rode downhill, then along Foothill Road and out Salmon Valley Road as far as the junction of the Heywood-Armstrong Road. Crossing the Salmon River, the road climbs to the ‘saddle’ of high-er land on the south side of Mt. Ida. The

road climbs moderate-ly for a couple of sec-tions, about 1.5 and 1 km long, but I didn’t find it as difficult as I thought it might be. Slow and steady gets it done. Once at the top the agricultural land in the Spallumcheen is very pleasant to ride through. Reaching Knob Hill Road, the route turns north (with

Going round the mountainone more 1 km moderate hill to climb) to link up with Deep Creek Road at the Hullcar Hall junction. Then there is the final ride along the undulat-ing, scenic Deep Creek valley to Highway 97B and back to Salmon Arm via Auto Road. I

chose to go counter clockwise to avoid rid-ing up Okanagan Avenue or any other hill in town, but there are hills no matter which direction you go. At least with every uphill pedal there is usually a fun, downhill coast!

The route is basical-ly rural and scenic, with mostly light traf-fic except for the short stretch of highway between Deep Creek Road and Auto Road. Some places have older, rougher pave-ment, but there are also smooth, newly paved sections. If you are not a cyclist, this route can also be enjoyed on the back of a motorcycle or in an automobile.

This 75 km distance is just one choice you can do in the annual Bike For Your Life cycling event held this year on Saturday, September 19. Other distances are 100 km, 35 km and 10 km, so it really is for any level of cyclist. This event has great food and camaraderie and attracts cyclists from all over the region. Salmon Arm’s Second Harvest Food Bank

and the Shuswap Trail Alliance also benefit from the proceeds. To learn more about this event, check out the website www.bikefo-ryourlife.com.

I’ll be ‘going around the mountain’ this year again. Maybe I’ll see you on the road.

VANCOUVER – Recently, in a positive announcement following consultations in the region, the BC government released an intentions paper and invited public feedback regarding pro-tection options in the South Okanagan-Similkameen. Included in the proposed protection options is a national park reserve designation.

The arid South Okanagan-Similkameen region is one of the four most endangered ecosystems in Canada, and is home to 30 per cent of BC’s endan-gered species – including badgers, rattlesnakes, bobolinks and charismatic burrowing owls.

The BC government’s proposed protection framework splits the region into three main areas, two of which are proposed as part of a national park reserve and the third as a provincial conser-vancy under the BC Park Act.

The federal government began exploring estab-lishing a national park reserve in 2002. In 2011 after extensive public consultation, a National Park Feasibility Assessment Report was released which said the establishment of a national park was feasi-

ble and that federal-provincial national park nego-tiations should begin immediately.

However, in 2011 the BC government unilateral-ly withdrew from the process citing a lack of com-munity support.

Independent polling has shown strong and grow-ing support for the park, with the most recent poll conducted in March of 2015 showing over 3:1 local support in the regional district of the South Okanagan-Similkameen. Support included 79 per cent of farming or ranching families and 67 per cent of households who participated in snowmobile and ATV riding.

“There are still many questions that need to be answered, and the park size is smaller than we’d like, but this development is a very positive step forward,” said Barlee. “We are thrilled to see that the Minister of Environment Mary Polak recogniz-es the incredible ecological importance of this region and that the provincial government is exploring ways to protect it through a national park designation.”

NEW SCHOOL YEARS BEGINS on Tuesday, September 8, 2015This is a half-day with buses returning home three hours earlier than normal.

NEW TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT?

Letters to the EditorMLA Greg Kyllo claims the BC govern-

ment’s plan for a greatly expanded LNG indus-try will be “a life-changer” for BC, with pro-jected revenues at $8.6 billion over the next 15 years (August 14). But closer examination reveals a different story.

In a bid to win public support for an expanded LNG industry, the BC government promised a $100 billion Prosperity Fund, a debt-free BC, lower taxes, and better public services. These promises were unrealistic at the outset, but now it’s unclear that BC will benefit at all from the plan.

Consider this: the BC government has cut its proposed LNG income tax from 7 per cent to just 3.5 per cent. Also, companies will be able to deduct the full capital costs of their LNG plant investment before they even pay this 3.5 per cent tax, which could take 6 to 12 years depending on what price they are able to get in Asia for the gas. If there are capital cost over-runs, it could take 16 years for the tax to kick in.

The BC government has also reduced its cor-porate income tax (CIT) rate for LNG from 11 per cent to 8 per cent. Factoring in the delayed application of the LNG tax and cost overruns, this CIT reduction essentially wipes out any revenue gain from the LNG tax.

Currently, BC’s forests are burning up and the province is facing severe drought conditions, a reflection of advancing climate change. Because LNG production results in chronic leaks of methane, a powerful climate-change gas, the government’s LNG plan would be equivalent to adding tens of millions of cars to the world’s roads. It would also mean that BC’s legislated carbon reduction targets could not be met.

The BC government’s LNG development plans are clearly wrong-headed. There are bet-ter options.

[Re: B.C.’s Health Care services are failing seniors]

I wonder how many of the general public are aware that our provincial health care services – or lack thereof – contribute to incontinence in our most vulnerable population of seniors: those in complex care facilities who are unable to advocate or speak up for themselves and their needs?

The practice is, for those in wheelchairs and suffering cognitive decline and/or brain injury and who can not speak up or express their needs, to simply let them sit in their own excre-ment and urine, the result of insufficient staff-ing to regularly check and ask residents if they need to go to the bathroom, and to assist them in doing so.

Perhaps the minister of health and the CEO and senior staff of Interior Health should expe-rience wearing a brief/diaper all day and, instead of using a toilet periodically, let every-thing gather in the brief – as their policies and practices force so many seniors in their care to do so.

Perhaps they will then realize not only how uncomfortable that is, but also how unhygienic it is and how it may explain the high rates of bladder and urinary tract infections in this most vulnerable population, especially in the female population.

If I sound disgusted and angry it is because I am. My wife, Kathleen, is one of those vulner-able people in complex care.

Perhaps our local MLAs could take a break from their photo ops and actually visit and see first-hand what they and their government are doing to these people in our name!

Robert (Bob) Hagman, Enderby

It is a tragedy! I have lived through such a disaster that never got close enough to really affect me like the Rock Creek Fire affected all of those people who lost their houses, their livestock, their vacations and feared for their lives.

Of course, the first thing people tend to do is find someone they can blame. A forest fire caused by a lightning strike is a terrible acci-dent, but if it’s not lightning, then we have to blame it on human beings, as one newspaper article suggested.

Maybe a cigarette or a campfire or an over-heated exhaust pipe – who knows, but if it wasn’t lightning, the fire was probably caused by one of the above, then it could have been prevented.

But could it have? Pity the poor guy who accidentally threw his cigarette out the window unthinkingly and caused all that damage. He (or she) should bear the blame. What about the cigarette companies who for years have known that there is nothing good about cigarettes except profit? What about Health Canada who finally admit that cigarettes cause health prob-lems and have thrown our health care system into financial woes? Or do they?

They and the Canadian Government would rather spend excessive advertising dollars attacking things like medical marijuana, which has been studied for many decades with little or no results, than put a ban on the sale of tobacco products which are known to be unhealthy, car-cinogenic, and the handling of which by human beings occasionally causes forest fires.

Telling a lie frequently enough somehow makes it the truth. It would be terrible if the truth were told as many times as lies are told. The lost tax revenue on tobacco sales would almost be offset by the savings in our medical costs.

Mr. Fletcher (Shuswap Market News) and Mr. Kyllo (Lakeshore News, August 14th) both trumpet the Nirvana that they claim is the future for BC LNG.

While I am not against the effec-tive development of BC resources, I do challenge their overblown rheto-ric.

While the Chinese economy now tanks and will have dramatic and long-term impacts on Australia, New Zealand and Canada, I would be more cautious with any claims for BC LNG. It is possible that world demand for LNG from BC might vapourize.

We need to be realistic that the energy-intensive LNG process, added to the intensive fracking of natural gas, will require huge amounts of energy from public (BC Hydro) utilities to feed the LNG projects throughout their useful life; then what costs will be borne by BC citizens in the long term?

These costs, as learned over many years by Alberta, take the form of extended depreciation periods, lower resource taxes, delayed reve-nue until proponents have paid off their investment ($36 billion), mas-

sive amounts of manufacturing and modularization offshore (cheaper labour Mr. Fletcher), huge BC infrastructure costs to service the projects, major revenue streams going permanently to foreign gov-ernments and corporations rather than to BC coffers, and the list goes on.

Several sources claim that there will be dramatic impact upon salm-on and other species.

What you propose is a guaranteed return on investment for foreign investors, low resource tax and huge infrastructure costs, before BC citizens see any, if at all, bene-fits. Does that make sense?

Imagine what BC could achieve if we spent a small fraction of these never-to-be-recovered allowances to foreign shareholders and corpo-rations instead on BC health care, education, made-in-BC energy ini-tiatives? I know this idea does not have the pizazz that both these gentlemen look for.

So Mr. Fletcher and Mr. Kyllo, please provide a more balanced and responsible approach that the citi-zens of BC deserve.

The Enderby & District Arts Council invites you to come out to their next Music by the River concert on Sunday, August 23rd, 3:00 p.m. in Belvidere Park by the Bridge (Drill Hall if it rains or is too cold). Sabrina and her lively dance band, Swing Cat Bounce, have performed at Music by the River in past years and at the 2014 Enderby Arts Festival. Mainly from Kamloops and vicinity, this little city band has a big city sound, playing high energy boogie blues. Sabrina’s exceptional and award-winning voice works equally well with ballads, blues and swing; and she always delights and surprises.

This concert is sponsored by Enderby & District Financial. They ask that attendees bring a non-perishable food item as part of their Feed the Valley initiative. This is a free concert, with donations accepted during intermission. Bring a chair or blanket, and the whole family. Refreshments will be available for purchase. Note that this is a mid-afternoon concert – 3:00 p.m start, rain or shine.

(Aug 18, 2015) – Revelstoke, BC – Axis Mundi Harvest, the first in a semiannual festival cycle launching in Revelstoke this September, has released its jam-packed event schedule for the three days of the festival, September 18-20, 2015.

Festival Friday catch a free concert at Grizzly Plaza, downtown Revelstoke, featuring bluesman Sherman Tank Doucette, followed by the roots rock reggae of Buckman Coe, all while enjoying a bevy in the beer garden. Or take in the Radical Reels Film Tour showing at the RPAC at 7:00 p.m. Later on, attendees can take in a music crawl happening at seven different venues throughout the city centre, with performances from artists like Tequila Mockingbird Orchestra, The Walkervilles, Rodney DeCroo, Rachelle van Zanten, and more.

Saturday daytime, take in the Axis Mundi Adventure Market on Mackenzie Avenue (closed to traffic during the festival weekend). The Adventure Market will showcase adventure sport gear and services alongside non-profit run infor-mation booths. Sport demos and street perfor-mances, like a kid-interactive telling of the Stone Soup tale or the Kids’ Drumming Workshop with David Thiaw, add to the mix. Down the street,

find local, organic and healthy foods and hand-crafted goods at the Revelstoke Farm and Craft Market at Grizzly Plaza. Workshops and lectures in venues around the city are also part of the Saturday daytime fare. Festival attendees can catch Adham Shaikh and Buckman Coe in the E l e c t r o - A c o u s t i c Shakedown Workshop and walk to other performances happening at different ven-ues around the city. They can get inspired by speakers like mountaineer and survi-vor Jamie Andrew or Olympic medalist and moti-vator, Chandra Crawford. At the end of the day, attendees are invited to share in a ‘by donation’ community meal in aid of the Revelstoke Soup & a Smile program and food bank. Enjoy delicious ‘Stone Soup’ and a bun, prepared by the Revelstoke United Church volun-teers before heading to Revelstoke Mountain Resort to take the gondie up to the Revelation Amphitheatre, for the Teen’s and Women’s

Revelstoke’s Axis Mundi Harvest releases full festival schedule

The South Shuswap A Cappella choir, “The Coppertones” is starting up at their new prac-tice place, Carlin Hall this September under the direction of Sylvain Vallee.

“The Coppertones” musical focus will be popular songs. Musical selections by artists like The Eagles, CSNY, CCR, The Beatles, Queen, and many more will make up the majority of the repertoire. This promises to be a fun and challenging learning experience for all partici-pating.

Rehearsals will commence early September on Thursday evenings from 7:00–9:00 p.m. in the lower level of the Carlin Hall.

Potential new members are asked to contact Karen Brown at 250-515-3276.

The a cappella group format is not a new thing to Mr. Vallee as he directs two other sim-ilar choirs in the Thompson/Okanagan area – “River Harmony” of Kamloops and the new group “Valley Harmony” in Vernon.

Last season these combined choruses were the headline act for a fundraising concert which successfully raised over $1200 for the home-less. Their performance received several stand-ing ovations throughout the show.

More information is available about the a cappella groups at www.amazingsinging.ca.

‘A cappella’ means singing without musical instrument accompaniment.

Shuswap Theatre begins the new season with a play by Canada’s most produced playwright, Norm Foster.

Paul Kirkwood-Hackett will direct Bedtime Stories, a clever, witty comedy that looks at love through a series of six scenes. Each scene con-nects time and place to an unusual radio broad-cast as we follow five interweaving characters in their comic struggle to find the meaning of love.

The cast consists of 3 males and 2 females who each play 3 characters and range in age from the 20s to early 50s.

Auditions at Shuswap Theatre: Sunday, August 23 at 2:00 p.m. and Monday, August 24 at 7:00 p.m.

The play runs October 16 - 31.

Newcomers are always welcome. For a copy of the script or for further information, please con-tact Paul at [email protected] or 250-838-0230.

Trail riding, equestrian events, and camping are popular pastimes in the Skimikin area and that’s why horse owners love coming here. There are over 100 kilometers of marked and mapped trails for short and long rides, some with spectac-ular views of the picturesque Skimikin Lake.

These trails are popular for hikers and cyclists too, and kayakers and canoeists find this small lake great for paddling.

The Skimikin Forestry Campsite is an eques-trian campsite is managed by the EQ Trails Association that is active in creating and main-taining trails in and around the Shuswap, espe-cially in support of the Shuswap Trail Alliance.

The campsites are spacious with picnic tables and fire pits. There are 15 paddocks for equine

Skimikin trails and camping

The mingled smell of cotton candy and deep-fried donuts waft through the air as the lights of the midway are flashing and twirling. There is plenty of entertainment from lawn tractor racing to the ever-popular ‘Shuswap Idol’ com-petition.

But the heart and soul of the fair are the displays and competitions of agricultural products, domestic livestock, and home arts. At this yearly event where livestock, gar-den and field produce and handi-

work take centre stage it’s obvious Salmon Arm is still very much a proud farming community.

The Salmon Arm Fall Fair has, since it began over 100 years ago, brought the people of the Shuswap region together to celebrate the community. This year’s theme is ‘From Pioneer Days to Modern Ways.’

It all takes place at the Salmon Arm fairgrounds September 11, 12, & 13.

Don’t miss this year’s 116th Interior Provincial Exhibition (IPE) in Armstrong this fall. This is an amazing 5-day agriculture fair that has over 20 divisions, a top-rated music stage, a rodeo, the ever-pop-ular midway and many commercial vendors that have unique items you can’t find in stores. And bring your appetite for the fun foods that are an integral part of that fair experi-ence!

Kids love walking through the barns and seeing all the animals, including the Vernon Pigeon & Poultry Club poultry barn. The club celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, and has been doing a superb job running this division.

It all takes place at the IPE grounds in Armstrong from September 2nd to 6th. For more information visit www.armstron-gipe.com.

Throughout the Shuswap there is a fantastic trail system that boasts 103 trails, of more than 700 kilometres, for all abilities.

Within Salmon Arm there are 23 trails; in the North Shuswap, 13; South Shuswap, 24; West Shuswap, 6; Falkland & area, 5; Enderby & area, 7; Sicamous & area, 25.

For a complete guide go to www.shuswap-trails.com or pick up one of the Shuswap, BC, Canada Trail Guide at a local Visitor Centre. The guide clearly marks the technically difficulty of each trail, the distance and length of time it will take to complete.

Hiking trails Salmon Arm Fall Fair

use with double corrals and pull-through parking spaces. Many tall trees make high lining an easy option. A caretaker on site collects a small fee and sells maps.

How to get there: The trails and campsite are located 15 kilometres west of Salmon Arm. Turn west off the Trans Canada Highway onto Tappen Valley Road, and drive about 4 kilometres and then east onto Skimikin Lake Road for another 6 km.

At the entrance there is ample parking for day users of the trails for hiking, biking and riding.

Yard Creek Provincial Park

Yard Creek Provincial Park strad-dles the Trans Canada Highway, 15km/9.3mi east of Sicamous where Yard Creek joins the Eagle River. The park’s convenient location makes it a popular stopover for campers, with 65 tent and RV sites set in lush cedar and hemlock forest.

The day-use area features a log picnic shelter and the Eagle River Nature Trails include over five kilo-metres of walking paths. Look for giant cedars in the forest and watch for many species of birds, including American dippers that dive into Yard Creek and “fly” underwater hunting for insects.

Cinnemousun Narrows

Provincial ParkC i n n e m o u s u n

Narrows Provincial Park, is situated where the four arms of Shuswap Lake con-verge and is accessible by water only. This is a pretty busy stretch during the busy sum-

mer months as scores of houseboats tie up and beach here.

Hiking trails lead to a viewpoint overlooking Shuswap Lake, and the park offers 28 forested campsites and three shelters on a first-come, first-served basis. Sanitation for campers runs to pit toilets while a marine sani-station is provided for boaters.

North Fork WildNorth Fork Wild

offers spectacular hik-ing with an impressive network of trails that wind through the land’s intact primary cedar and hemlock forests. The well planned trails go along sandy beach-es, creeks, sloughs, and the inspiring Lower Perry River Canyon.

How to get there: Heading northeast on the Trans Canada Highway, turn left onto Avoca Road (approx. 28 kms from Sicamous). Continue on Avoca Road approximately half a km and turn left onto Perry River Forest Service Road, follow this approximately 1 km and the North Fork Wild Park will be on your right.

If you prefer watching movies on the big screen, you will definitely love Enderby’s Starlight Drive-In with North America’s largest drive-in screen (6000 square feet). It’s an amazing movie experience.

The box office opens a couple of hours before the movie starts. On the weekends try to come when the box office opens to avoid long line-ups.

When you drive in, pick your spot and turn on your car radio (or iPod or walkman or boom box) to 106.9FM for sound.

Some people prefer to bring lawn chairs or blankets, and that’s okay too as long as you’re on the grass directly in front of vehicle and not

taking up an extra site.Then you stroll over to the con-

cession stand because that’s all part of the movie experience. The staff is really friendly and the prices are the lowest in BC. You can get a full range of beverages, candy, popcorn, nachos, hot dogs and fries.

Movies start when it’s dark enough to project a movie. So it’s a little past twilight, coming on to dusk, right about the cusp of the evening, or to be more precise, gloaming, but not as late as even-tide. By nightfall you’ll be late.

Or you can just find out for sure–call 250-838-6757 or visit their website. www.starlightdrivein.ca

Movies under the stars

In Sicamous you can rent a canoe, ski boat, personal watercraft, patio boat, water skis, water toys or even a houseboat from many of the rental compa-nies in the community. This way you can experience all the adventures along the shoreline.Sicamous Beach Park

An absolute must on your vacation to-do list will be Sicamous Beach Park. It is an extremely popular spot with resi-dents and visitors. Right on lake and close to the downtown, it has

a sandy beach with a good sized designated swimming area. The marina isn’t far away and it’s fun to watch the boats go in and out as you enjoy the refresh-ingly cool water on a hot summer day.

Picnic tables are con-veniently close to the sand so it’s easy to enjoy your picnic lunch while watching the lit-tle ones build sandcas-

tles and splash around in the water.

There are clean and well-kept public wash-rooms, a playground area, a water park, vol-leyball courts, picnic tables.

Riverfront Nature Park

The Riverfront Nature Park has sever-al kilometres of pleas-ant tails near the mouth of the Eagle River. There are great views of the river and of Shuswap Lake along the way. This is popu-lar spot for birders.

Access and parking

for the trail is at the end of Silver Sands Road in Sicamous. Turn north off the Trans Canada Highway just east of the bridge over Sicamous Narrows (at the Houseboat info kiosk).

Two Mile Crescent Beach

Another nice public beach is located at Two Mile off Montcalm Cresent. Looking out

onto Mara Lake, the rest stop off Hwy 97A just south of Sicamous has picnic tables just above the beach area.

Swansea Point public access

Swansea point has seven beautiful public lake accesses, beaches and boat launches in close proximity: Canterbury Road (vol-leyball court and picnic tables), Cambridge Road (picnic tables and vault toilet), Westminster Road (picnic tables), Windsor Road (public dock can be used for temporary moorage, Oxford Road (great for hand launching boats and swimming, wash-rooms), Eaton Road (hand launch boat), and Swansea Road.

How to get there: From the Vernon-Sicamous Highway (97A) South turn onto Swansea Road and all the above mentioned very English accesses are in this area.

Mara Lake Provincial Park

Mara Provincial Day Park on the south end of Mara Lake has all the amenities for a day park as well as a paved boat launch (there is no overnight moorage).

SPORTS & LEISURE

By Faith JuellThe Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club held a suc-

cessful tournament on the weekend of August 15-16 under mostly clear skies. Those registering early enjoyed a lightening show and rain on Friday evening. Nearly 30 pitchers enjoyed two days of competition. Club president Doug Winslow opened the tournament at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday morning with four groups playing in the morning after a hearty pancake breakfast.

Pitching in E mix class, Clarence Juell placed third with Marlene Marshall com-ing in first. In D mix class, Edwin Krieg placed third.

Competing in B mix class, Lyle Cutler placed second to Andy Danyleyko. Andy was the oldest pitcher playing, and had a personal high game of 65.38%.

Pitching in A class, Matt Honkanen placed first, with Vic Vallee second. Matt’s five-game average was 63.42%. Vic and his wife Grace were the provin-cial competitors who traveled the furthest to pitch for the two days.

Members started Sunday morning with another pancake breakfast, cooked by Edwin and Clarence. A total of 15 played on teams of two, pitched through the warm morning. Following a playoff, the team of Vic Vallee and Faith Juell earned first place, with Matt Honkanen and Jim Michie sec-

ond. Third place went to Ted Peters and Mavis Reid. Mavis traveled from Lac La Hache to com-pete for two days. At noon, players enjoyed time out for a lunch served by the members, with awards and good-byes in the afternoon.

The next local competition will be the Interior Championships in Kamloops on September 12. The club will continue evening practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.

Contact Doug at 250-832-8520 or Faith at 250-832-9873.

This past weekend, August 14-16, the Miele Ladies Team Tennis Provincial Championships took place at the Okanagan Mission Tennis Club in Kelowna.

Despite stormy looking skies, play commenced on Friday night, and the finals were completed on Sunday afternoon.

Team Slammin’ Arm from the Salmon Arm Tennis Club (Loree Boyd, Marietjie du Plessis, Shannon Hecker, Cynthia Langford, Deedee Shattock, Marianne van Buskirk and Barb Waring) represented the Interior Region in the 3.5 category. Team Slammin’ Arm ended top of the log after the Round Robin matches therefore easily qualifying for the playoff for the number 1 and 2 spot in the province.

Although Team Slammin’ Arm

defeated The Tsawwassenettes from Tsawwassen in the Round Robin match this was not to be repeated in the final. Team Slammin’Arm fin-ished in second place at the 2015 Miele Ladies Team Tennis Provincial Championship.

This was the second year in a row that Team Slammin’ Arm qualified for the provincial tournament and did extremely well after finishing first in 2014. It has been encourag-ing to see that the local ladies are not only great competitors but also enjoyed fantastic camaraderie.

Pictured, from left: representing Team Slammin’ Arm from the Salmon Arm Tennis Club are Barb Waring, Loree Boyd, Marietjie du Plessis, Cynthia Langford, Deedee Shattock and Shannon Hecker. Photo contributed.

On August 29th and 30th, 2015, thousands of dedicated men and women will embark on a two-day, over 200-km cycling journey between Vancouver and Seattle. This year, participants can select one of four route options to ride (http://bit.ly/1VPHTtC).

The 7th annual BC Ride to Conquer Cancer is a multi-day event to raise significant funds for life-saving research and enhancements to care at the BC Cancer Agency.

One in three British Columbians will be diag-nosed with cancer in their lifetime.

Participants in the Ride to Conquer Cancer have the opportunity to make a personal differ-

ence in achieving the BC Cancer Foundation’s vision of a world free from cancer. As a unique fundraising event that supports ground-breaking research at the BC Cancer Agency, the potential for Ride dollars to change the cancer landscape in B.C and beyond is immense.

The annual Ride is BC’s largest cycling fund-raiser and draws thousands of participants and brings together communities of survivors, cyclists and supporters who train and fundraise for months in order to participate in The Ride.

By Tom Fletcher, Black PressThe unemployment rate in B.C.

held steady at six per cent in July, with a reduction in private-sector jobs offset by increased public sector employment and self-employment.

BC Stats reported that private sec-tor employment fell by 4,500 jobs from June, while private sector jobs grew by 1,800 and the number of self-employed rose by 2,100. Compared to July 2014, self-em-ployment was up by 9,800 while private sector employment was down 8,300.

B.C.’s unemployment rate tied with Alberta for third lowest in the country in July. Saskatchewan was lowest with 5.2 per cent and Manitoba second lowest at 5.8 per cent, compared with a national rate of 6.8 per cent.

B.C.’s commodity exports increased 9.1 per cent in June, with increases in forestry products, farm and fishing products and energy. Exports were up 12.8 per cent to the U.S. and 5.1 per cent to the rest of the world.

Dear Reena,Our dog’s favourite place to sit was on

our leather sofa, and now that she is gone we cannot seem to get the odour off of the leather! We have tried leather cleaners but to no avail. I had a professional here yes-terday to clean it but he said pet odours cannot be removed. Can they? Please help! Debbie

Dear Debbie,Begin by dampening the area and wip-

ing it with white vinegar and baking soda. Wipe clean. Next purchase a container of saddle soap which is specifically made for leather. Wet a cloth and rub it with saddle soap to create lather. Work the lather into the chair and rub for several minutes allowing the ingredients to penetrate the fabric so that you reach all areas of where the dog’s mess soaked through. Dry well.

Dear Reena,I dripped some red candle wax on an old

oak table and did not notice it for over an hour. As soon as I saw it, I scraped off the wax and rubbed the spots with furniture oil. Now I see that although all the wax is gone, there is still some red dye in the wood. I thought I might try some mineral spirits next but I decided to contact you to see if you have thoughts on this. I would like to avoid having the table refinished if at all possible. Thanks in advance. Shelby

Dear Shelby,

Have you tried rubbing the area with the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser? Depending on the finish of the wood, you may have great success with this. I have also received reports that some people add a few drops of rubbing alcohol to the Magic Eraser and say that the dye stain disappears (test on inconspicuous area first). Another option is to scrub the area with Head and Shoulders Dandruff Shampoo and rinse with water. Mineral spirits will likely remove the dye but also damage the finish of the wood. Next time (if there is a next time); cover the area with a brown paper bag or tea towel. Press the area with a warm iron (steam setting off). Move the paper around the area to soak up all of the wax.

Dear Reena,I live alone and love the taste of freshly

made bread. So I make my own bread dough and have a hard time eating more than one loaf while it is still fresh tasting. Is it possible to freeze bread dough and bake it later? Jessy

Dear Jessy,Sure, all you need to do is increase the

yeast by one third when you are making it for freezing. Allow the dough to rise as a loaf and then place the loaf into a lightly floured double sealable bag. Freeze. When the time comes to bake the loaf, remove it from the bag and place it inside of a light-

ly oiled loaf pan. Cover the pan with a plastic bag and thaw in the fridge. Once thawed, let rise and bake as normal.

Dear Reena,I bought the same honey that I

always buy, but for some reason the honey in this bucket is as hard as a rock. I have already bent two spoons trying to get the honey out of the honey pot. Should I throw it out? The bucket was $20 so I don’t want to get rid of it. Help, Nathan

Dear Nathan,When I think about how hard those little

honey bees work for every pound of honey, I cringe at the idea of even one teaspoon of honey being tossed into the trash. Especially since the solution is so simple; fill the kitchen sink with hot water. Put the sealed honey pot into the water, making sure that no water seeps inside the pot. Wait 20 minutes and the honey will be liquid and easy to pour.

Did you know? The average work-er bee produces between one and two teaspoons of honey in her entire lifetime.

Irene Wooldridge

July 1, 1920 - August 16, 2015

It is with great sadness and sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved Mother and great great Grandmother on Sunday August 16, 2015 at the age of 95. Irene was the beloved wife of Walter Wooldridge, pre-deceased by her siblings Bob, Luella, Ken, Allan, Don and Edna. She will be deeply missed and always remembered by daughters Mary (Edward), Joan (Edward), and Linda (D’Arcy), and sadly pre-deceased by daughter Joyce (Irvin). Irene was fortunate to have the pleasure of 10 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren and 5 great great grandchildren, whom she loved dearly. Some grandchildren lovingly called her Grandma Moo-Moo. She lived her whole life with great courage and determination despite many challenges. Born in Madoc, Ontario in 1920, Irene and her six siblings grew up on a farm and learned to work hard at an early age. Irene moved west from Ontario in 1947 to Kelowna and worked at Kelowna General Hospital as a cook for over 25 years. After “retiring”, Walter and Irene moved to the farm in Mara, where she enjoyed the farm life of raising cattle, pigs, chickens, dairy cows, growing corn and hay for the animals, and a huge garden for the family. Irene and Walter enjoyed their hobby farm and shared many happy times, hard work and a good lifestyle. Irene was also a hardworking businesswoman as she owned her own business, Irene’s Personal Shopping, acting as a personal shopper for residents and workers at Mica Dam while the dam was under construction. Although she was not blessed with musical talents, she enjoyed all kinds of music, singing and dancing. She especially loved family gatherings and parties. She was well known for her great baking specialties of shortbread cookies and fruit pies.

Irene was one-of-a-kind, tough, strong willed, and she was the foundation of our family. She will be deeply missed by us all. We will try to carry on the values of selflessness and kindness she held and shared with us. She will be forever loved and missed daily. Many thanks to the faithful caring network of caregivers at the Pleasant Valley Manor in Armstrong where she spent her last 3 years. Staff members provided personal care and comfort as well as friendship.

A celebration of life will be held on Sunday, August 23, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. at the Mara Community Hall.

Arrangements entrusted to Fischer’s Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd., Salmon Arm 250 833-1129. Email condolences and share memories of Irene through her

obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices.com.

Nancy Kathleen McAdam, 70, passed away peacefully August 10th, 2015 at her home in Salmon Arm, British Columbia. A memorial service was held for family and friends on Saturday, August 15th at Bowers Funeral Home.

Born July 23, 1945 in Victoria, Nan was the daughter of the late Allan and Kathleen McAdams. She will be remembered by her beloved children and their families: son Jonathan Witt and wife Anu of Saskatoon, their children Mira, Sona, and Ashwin; daughter Heidi Grogan and husband Mike of Calgary and their children Aidan and Abby. She is survived by her sister Sue Reddick, brothers Gordon and Ian McAdam and their families. Nan will be deeply missed by the countless friends with whom she shared life.

Nan grew up in Nelson and loved life at the lake in the summers and skiing in the mountains in the winters. After leaving Nelson, she moved to Vancouver and graduated from UBC with a nursing degree. In her career as a nurse, Nan served the community in Salmon Arm with dedication and care. In her retirement, Nan cherished all her times spent with her children and grandchildren. Much of her life in Salmon Arm was reflected in her large garden, rows of canned peaches, stunning and intricate quilts, her cook-stove and farming. In recent years, she loved nothing more than being on Shuswap Lake with her beloved dog Danny.

Nan leaves her friends and family a testament ofcourage and determination to live fully – whatever your age. Our lasting memory will be of her as mother, grandma, sister, and friend taking to the road in her RV to enjoy what life had to offer her in the present moment.

Online condolences may be sent through Nan’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

TAURUSTaurus, you have the opportunity to see yourself more clearly this week. This may help you focus your goals precisely and change your life for the better.

GEMINIGemini, take some time to review any aspirations you may have pushed aside, especially those pertaining to love. Open your heart instead of turning off feelings.

CANCERSurround yourself with friends and loved ones, Cancer. You enjoy spending time with those you love, and time spent that way will make you happier.

LEOLeo, step aside and let someone else shine in the coming days. You enjoy the spotlight, but this person can use a little positive energy coming his or her way.

You know your heart benefits from exercise. Your brain does, too.

Studies show that regular, moderate

exercise -- 30 minutes of walking or a light one-mile run -- helps fight the effects of aging on the brain. No grueling

workouts required!

All types of exercise count, including

walking, bicycling, hiking, swimming,

aerobics, and weight training. Ballroom

dancing is another good one, especially fun on

chilly evenings.

Researchers believe exercise may stimulate the body to fight stress

that’s normally occurring in the brain -- stress that causes oxidative

damage. All that good stuff from a little

exercise!
