Four dogs from the Creston Valley were taken to Vancouver on Jan. 19, headed from Creston’s Pet Adoption Welfare Society (PAWS) shelter to a

new life offering companionship to veterans.

Brian LawrenceOn Jan. 5 at 4 a.m., Pridham Studio owners Micah (above) and Jeremiah Wassink became parents to Adeline Elyse Dahlia Wassink, the Creston Valley’s first baby born in 2013. She weighed seven pounds, nine ounces, and was 20.5 inches long, born a week early after four hours of labour. Micah gave birth at home, and the baby was delivered by midwife Leah Barlow at the start of a busy day — she delivered two more within 24 hours. This is the second New Year’s baby for the Wassink family; Jeremiah’s sister, Rachael, is the mother of 2009 New Year’s baby, Zoe.

From page 1Tommy and Barney (10-month-

old German shepherd crosses), Chevie (three-year-old Shar-Pei-Great Dane cross) and Kenzie (German shepherd) recently completed a six-week training program — called “basic train-ing” because it’s veteran-related — to qualify them with Citadel. (Kenzie’s littermate, Jane, will be sent with three others at a later date.)

Miller and PAWS president Vicki McDonald went to Vancouver ahead of the dogs to interview potential recipients.

“We have to pick which ones would be right for them,” said Miller.

The dogs already meet Assistance Dog International requirements, but their training will go further once they arrive at their new homes, following a flight donated by Pacific Coastal Airlines.

“Once they’re paired up with new owners, they go through a 14-week training program,” said Miller. “It’s very structured.”

The second round trains both the dogs and their owner, who learn handling skills, obedience, grooming, general care, feeding, first aid, public manners and eti-quette. And if required, the dogs may go through still further training to become actual service dogs.

Miller gives a lot of credit for the dogs’ success to McDonald, Pat May and Joan Halvorsen, who worked with the dogs around town, as well as to local business owners who allowed the dogs inside.

“We want to thank local busi-ness for allowing public access,” said Miller. “It’s been so huge for their training.”

People in the community, too, have been helpful, not distract-ing the dogs by petting them or speaking to them while they are wearing their blue training vests.

“Members of the community have been really good about that,” said May.

Although these four dogs were unwanted and turned over to the PAWS shelter, their future looks bright, partly because of the sec-ond chance given to them by PAWS.

“Volunteers spend time to make sure they are adoptable,” said Miller.

“These were throwaway dogs,” said May. “People didn’t want them. Now, look what they’ve become in the community!”

Saving seeds is an ancient skill that is slowly becoming a dying art — but Patrick Steiner hopes to steer Creston Valley gar-deners and farmers back to traditional ways when he presents “Starting with Seeds” on Saturday, the first in the College of the Rockies’ Food in the Valley workshop series.

“This is something that for a long time, generations, was practiced all the time,” he said. “Farmers, and gardeners too, used to grow their seeds.”

In the latter half of the 20th century, self-sufficiency began to fade as seed collecting became something done by large compa-nies.

“A lot of people lost skills and knowl-edge about how to save their own seeds,” said Steiner. “With the loss of that knowl-edge base, you’re stuck with what the seed companies give you. For a long time, that was not a concern.”

With Colleen O’Brien, Steiner operates Stellar Seeds and Kootenay Joe Farms in Johnson’s Landing at the north end of Kootenay Lake, where they grow mixed vegetables and seeds for everything from beans to eggplant to rutabaga to annual flowers.

Most of their seeds are heirloom or heri-tage varieties, which have been around for generations, and have distinct colours, fla-vours and shapes. Some of those seeds were once easy to obtain, but disappeared as larger seed companies took over small ones.

“With that, they would often drop part of the seed lines that were offered,” said Steiner. “We actually lost agricultural biodiversity.”

In Saturday’s workshop, Steiner will tai-lor information to the audience, as he does when he has offered a similar presentation around the province.

“It’s kind of aimed at gardeners of all experience levels who have an interest in harvesting, collecting and growing their own seeds,” said Stenier. “Usually, it’s more of a gardener crowd, but we do get farm-ers.”

No matter the experience level, it’s important to discuss the basic rules of seed saving — and for some, that will mean starting at the beginning.

“A lot of people either don’t save their own seeds or think its very difficult,” Steiner said. “Within a few hours, we can go over those seed saving rules and make your seed saving successful.”

Saving seeds is a step toward developing stronger food security, as seeds are saved based on their reaction to a particular climate.

“Find out what you like,” he said. “Often if you grow them in your own garden or farm, you acclimatize them to conditions around you. Many seeds you buy off the shelf, they’re produced as far away as China or Israel, and not necessarily acclima-tized to own gardens.

“With just a few years of saving your own seeds, there should be a beneficial dif-

ference with your crops. … You’ll have probably selected seeds that will grow best in your own garden.”

Steiner and O’Brien have been farming for about 17 years and lived in Salmon Arm before moving to Johnson’s Landing two years ago.

“We’d been farming for many years, but always leasing land,” he said. “We were in the process of looking for our own land and looking for an area we wanted to live in for a long time. The Kootenays was one of the places we wanted to be because of the community and young families around.”

Although he has a great deal of experi-ence, Steiner appreciates the chance to inter-act with workshop participants, and encour-ages questions and comments throughout.

“I often find that people’s enthusiasm is kind of infectious, so it keeps me inspired with what I do on my own farm,” he said. “I often learn things in the course of doing this, as well. Every farmer or gardener who comes to these workshops has had their own experience.”

Anyone interested in attending the Jan. 26 workshop at the College of the Rockies is asked to register by 3 p.m. Friday, by emailing [email protected] or calling 250-428-5332.

Icy roads, false alarms and more for RCMP

From page 1Couns. Judy Gadicke and Tanya Ducharme

both questioned the value in purchasing credits, but they were reminded that Creston had signed the agreement several years ago. Dehnel said CNK is working with Kootenay communities to find suitable local projects that will offer credits by reducing carbon emissions.

Council Briefs•Ross Beddoes, chief building official, report-

ed that 2012 was a 10-year low for construction in Creston. A total of 42 building permits were issued, with only two for new single-family resi-dences.

Last year’s construction value was under $2 million, compared to more than $11 million in 2011.

•Jen Comer, representing the Creston Valley Food Action Coalition, reported on the grow-ing success of the Creston Valley Farmers’ Market. The number of vendors and customers continues to grow and an economic impact report produced last year indicates that the market is a significant contributor to the local economy.

She said a permanent, year-round location is the goal for the market.

•After a long and often contentious negotia-

tion, the town signed a five-year Arrow Creek Water Treatment and Supply Service cost-shar-ing agreement with the Regional District of Central Kootenay. Under the agreement, the town will pay 60 per cent of the operating costs. The RDCK is committed to installing water meters on its lateral lines to help measure water usage, which could result in a cost-sharing change in 2014.

The Town of Creston and RDCK have been sharing costs without a written agreement for four years.

•A zoning amendment application for 1333 Eighth Ave. N. will move forward to a public hearing. The amendment, similar to those of neighbouring properties that have been approved in recent years, would change the zon-ing of the lot from rural residential (R-5) to single family residential (R-1).

•Council planned to hold a strategic planning session with a consulting facilitator in Creston on Jan. 16 to determine its priorities for the com-ing fiscal year.

•A $1,000 grant for the Creston Valley Thunder Cats hockey team was approved after council learned that it faces an operating short-fall due to the loss of concession revenues. Areas A and B have also committed to helping make up the anticipated $2,500 loss in revenues.

•A $400 grant was approved to help with costs in hosting the minor hockey peewee provincial tourna-ment.

BY LORNE ECKERSLEYAdvance Staff

Creston Valley Thunder Cats presi-dent Bob Gollan presented a financial report to the Regional District of Central Kootenay local services committee, say-ing that the loss of concession revenues will leave the club about $2,500 in the hole for the 2012-13 season.

In the absence of a concession kitch-en since renovations to the arena foyer were undertaken, the Thunder Cats were selling pop, chips and candy, net-ting $200-$300 per game. Now, with the concession open and being operated by A Break in Time Caffé, the club loses that revenue.

“Don’t get me wrong,” Gollan said. “I agree with the decision made to oper-ate the concession in this way. But we need those revenues to be made up so we don’t go into debt.”

Area B director John Kettle ($1,000) and Area A director Garry Jackman ($750) agreed immediately to help with grants to cover the shortfall, while Area C director Larry Binks and Creston Mayor Ron Toyota said they would take the issue back to their constituencies.

Gollan said the lack of concession revenues should be a factor in the team’s ice rental agreement because Thunder Cats fans are the largest concession users.

“We have an obligation to the hockey team to make this work,” Kettle said. “Without the Thunder Cats we would have to raise user fees or taxes to cover our costs for this facility.”

Committee Briefs•Pet Adoption and Welfare Society

treasurer Lynn Ray presented a report

and requested that directors consider providing ongoing funding for an orga-nization “that is a victim of its own suc-cess.”

Relying on grants, donations and fundraising takes a lot of energy out of the volunteers, she said, and the many services PAWS provides are of direct benefit to local taxpayers.

“We need sustainable funding,” she said. “Without it we could need to start charging fees for services.”

Directors acknowledged the value of the work PAWS does and promised to explore ways of helping to fund services.

“We need to step up to the plate,” Binks said. “We can’t just keep asking you to do this for free.”

•RDCK staff were directed to explore the feasibility of moving building inspection and emergency preparedness staff offices to the community complex from the library building.

“Let’s let these departments tell us what they need,” Kettle said.

Kettle and Joe Chirico, RDCK gen-eral manager of community services, got into a brief discussion about whether the emergency operations centre should also be moved to the complex from town hall. Binks put a stop to the conversation when it was revealed the discussion was referring to a report to the RDCK that was not made public.

“If the information can’t be released then it shouldn’t be brought up at a meeting,” he said.

•A draft bylaw that will make the Creston Valley local services committee an official arm of the RDCK is expected to be ready for February’s meeting.

•Staff were directed to get a report on necessary upgrades to Rotacrest Hall.

BY LORNE ECKERSLEYAdvance Staff

Regional District of Central Kootenay Area C director Larry Binks took the reins of the local services committee on Jan. 14, assuming the role Creston Mayor Ron Toyota has had for two years.

“In the past we have often approved resolutions that haven’t had a time frame,” he said after assuming the chair’s position. “I don’t want us doing that. When we pass a resolution it should have a time frame attached to it. When we don’t do that it puts the staff in a compromised position and I don’t think that’s fair to them.”

With that statement on the record, the second-term RDCK director pro-ceeded with a meeting agenda that started off with a report from emergen-cy services co-ordinator Alanna Garrett, who said that plans are underway to prepare for the annual spring freshet and flooding issues that can arise.

Garrett heard concerns from Area A director Garry Jackman about the lack of response when blocked culverts are reported along Highway 3A. Dealing with those blockages can prevent bigger problems that occur with the buildup of water on the high side of the highway.

“How the Ministry of Transportation and YRB address those reports is beyond our capacity,” Garrett said.

Area B director John Kettle concurred with Jackman, observing that provincial governments historically “won’t do any-thing to prevent a disaster but they will pay after it happens.” He said a meeting designed to “get all the players in the same room at the same time”, including various cabinet ministers, is planned for February to talk about the issue.

It wasn’t a surprise that the first two comments after town council heard a presentation about carbon credits came from Couns. Judy Gadicke and Tanya Ducharme. They are typically the first two members on council to raise questions and challenge assumptions.

Gadicke always ques-tions spending and Ducharme has lots of expe-rience in environmental issues relating to carbon emissions from her work at Columbia Brewery.

The presentation was made by Carbon Neutral Kootenays, an organization formed and funded by the three regional districts in the southeast of the province, and a number of municipalities. Chalk the formation of CNK up to good deci-sion-making, an effort to help guide local governments to reduce their carbon footprint and to help identify local projects that offer carbon cred-its.

My first brush with carbon cred-its came a number of years ago when we were purchasing flight tickets to Europe. Did we want to purchase carbon credits to offset our contribution to carbon emissions the flight would make? the website asked. I was unfamiliar with the concept so I did some research, learning that non-profits and for-profit companies were setting up systems that allow companies and governments to offset their own car-bon emissions by purchasing credits from projects which help reduce car-bon emissions. Planting forests with long-term management plans is one way but there is a myriad of others, more popping up almost daily. I did

purchase credits, thinking that every little bit helps.

CNK estimates that the Town of Creston emitted as much 300 tons of carbon in excess of its neutral

target, one that it signed an agree-ment with the province to hit. That means that it needs to purchase carbon credits to achieve neutral status. The CNK recommendation is to purchase credits from the Nature Conservancy of Canada, which purchased the Darkwoods forest on the south side of Kootenay Lake. By selling credits, the conservancy will be able to pay for at least part of the cost of the purchase and provide guarantees that portions, if not all, of the land will not be logged. Cutting trees is one way that carbon is released into the atmosphere.

The cost to create a carbon neu-tral footprint isn’t much. CNK said they expect the town’s emissions will actually be under 300 tons and the maximum purchase price will be $25 a ton, but more likely closer to $15. The town has been told to bud-get for a $7,500 cost, but to expect it will end up to be $5,000 or even less. Not much in the big picture, but still, for a local government that is trying to hold back spending in light of last year’s addition of policing

costs to its budget, every dollar counts.

Gadicke, who commented at the start of the discussion that “I should have been wearing my T-shirt that

says ‘Don’t tell me what to do!’ ” did question what the ramifications of ignoring the carbon neutral agreement would be.

The answer to that was a simple one. On many appli-cation forms for provincial government funding and grants a question is now commonly asked, “Are you a carbon neutral govern-

ment?” How many town councils or regional districts are going to resist buying a few thousand dol-lars worth of carbon credits and risk losing tens or hundreds of thousands, or even millions, in provincial funding? Not many, I suspect. And it would be even less credible to resist after having signed an agreement.

I am reminded of an All in the Family episode in which Archie Bunker went to night school to get his high school diploma so he would have a chance at a supervisory posi-tion on his loading dock. Eventually the job went to a co-worker, who Bunker referred to as Black Elmo. At the end of the show, Bunker slumped into his chair and said, “And here I am, stuck with a high school diploma.”

I’m not sure that carbon credits will make a difference in climate change but I think it would be irre-sponsible to risk not doing anything. At worst we will be stuck with a cleaner environment.

To work with this slogan, it is nec-essary to look at how you spend your physical, mental and emotional time. In short, how do you invest your life energy? It is easy to fritter time away in frivolous pursuits that are enter-taining and do not infuse your life with quality. Such activities lead nowhere and are a waste of your one precious and wild life. Chasing after and indulging in mindless entertain-ment is like eating junk food: It is ultimately unsatisfying, and, if truth be told, ultimately harmful.

Frivolity comes across as light-hearted and innocent, but it is not. It is not real openness, but a form of aggression toward your own best self. To be frivolous is to be self-indulgently carefree, unconcerned about or lacking any serious pur-pose, to have little or no importance, to be unworthy of careful attention. Frivolity results in a life not fully lived.

Keeping things on the surface level may help you prevent any discovery about the reality of your life, or about life in general, that might rock the boat. An unexamined life may help you feel more comfortable about float-

ing about in the shallows of your brief existence on planet Earth, rather than assisting you to delve into the depth of reality. But since the amazing power of your true nature lies in its innate desire to realize the highest of enlight-enment, suppressing that instinct by opting for frivolity, takes work and drains energy. To maintain a narrow field of self-centred comfort, you have to keep pushing down the truth of what it means to be alive in a human body in this time.

It is tricky to work with frivolity. First, it is easy to confuse it with the kind of openness, light-heartedness and playful childlike mind that is cultivated by meditative practice. We can all cite a spiritually realized teacher who displays child-like open-ness. It is easy to think that because the Dalai Lama laughs under all con-ditions he is an example that advo-

cates frivolity. But, in truth, the Dalai Lama is a highly serious person. He’s serious about compassion, peace and about restoring political freedom to the Tibetan people. The trick is that frivolity can seem like a virtue, but it

isn’t, and that true hap-piness can appear as mindless frivolity. The second trick of frivolity is that it is possible to overcorrect, to counter frivolity with an over-blown self-righteous display of seriousness. But the mind/heart cul-tivated by Zen training is neither stodgy nor

frivolous. True spiritual training will help to avoid both frivolity and seri-ous self-righteousness.

One could say that the play between seriousness and frivolity is a kind of spiritual humor. The most solemn occasions often have an undercurrent of absurdity; and the silliest interactions can have an undertone of profundity.

Suggested practice: Take a census of what you think about and how you spend your time. How do you distin-guish between what it frivolous and what truly takes care of your life?

OPINION LINECreston Valley Advance Thursday, January 24, 2013 www.crestonvalleyadvance.ca 7

Besides raising your property value and generally making your home a nicer place, proper landscaping can also help you keep your energy bills lower all year round. Most people can see the obvious benefits of a few carefully placed shade trees through the heat of summer. Besides keeping you and your home out of the direct sun the living plants in your yard actu-ally keep you cool through evaporative cooling as moisture is lost from their leaves to the atmosphere. It's like having your own giant air conditioning system. But seeing that it is win-ter right now I'm going to call atten-tion to how your landscaping can actually keep you warmer for less.

Years ago in agricultural college, I learned the benefits of shelterbelts to crop production on the prairies. These oversized hedges planted around the edges of fields actually help to increase heat units and crop yields by reducing the wind speed. It is this same princi-ple that can help keep your home warmer.

It is accepted that a windbreak of

some sort will save you 10 to 25 per cent on heating costs by reducing the air infiltration (leakage) rate on your home. On cold and windy days, heat losses due to leakage may represent up to 50

per cent of your total heating costs. Blocking cold winter winds also reduces heat loss due to conduction through your home, as well. By placing a hedge near your home you can reduce the wind velocity on the surface of your house and therefore reduce the air infil-tration rate.

For example, here in Erickson our old house gets a regular crosswind from the northeast. That part of the house was fully exposed to the wind with the exception of an area to the

north corner partially protected by some large rhododendrons. The slid-ing glass door, picture windows and walls all lose heat through air infiltra-tion and conductive heat loss. By

planting a hedge of yew trees about six feet out from the house walls, I have reduced the wind speed from 12 miles per hour to about four miles per hour. This serves to create a dead air space beside the house walls as well as deflecting some of the wind around the house. While this evergreen hedge has taken some time to establish, it is low main-tenance, drought tolerant and

deer proof.There are a number of other ever-

green shrubs that could be chosen, including some varieties of holly, mugho pines, junipers and cedar trees. Semi-evergreen and densely twiggy deciduous shrubs can also work well to reduce wind speeds and if you are short on space you could even opt for a vine of some sort grow-ing on a trellis.

Nursery NotesEvan Davies

To the Editor:Several years ago it was leaked that

the U.S. and its allies were going to orchestrate “regime change” in five dif-ferent countries in the Middle East in order to protect their interests. The so-called Arab Spring struggle for democ-racy is nothing but a sham. The first nation to fall, according to the leak, would be Afghanistan, then Iraq, then Libya, the next would be Syria, and finally Iran. In the recent past we have seen three down and two more to go.

Syria is the most anti-American country in the region, and its struggles against American power plays is creat-ing an ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region.

Dr. Radwan Ziadeh, senior fellow at the U.S. Institute for Social Policy And Understanding in Washington, D.C., is on the ground floor of involvement in supporting the oppo-sition in Syria. In his advice, the intervention in Syria needs to be “vel-veteen” in nature and woven patient-ly over time. The mission has to be led by a regional force composed of Turkish and Arab militaries, Qatar and Saudi Arabia are funding the opposition, and Washington and European powers remotely back the operation facilitating its success.

Speaking in Zagreb, Croatia, in November, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced that Washington is reorganizing the front representing the so-called rebels in Syria, and went on to explain U.S. efforts to groom a new leadership capable of forming a government after the government of President Bashar al-Assad is toppled.

So things in our world are not as our mainstream media leads us to believe. Going completely off the present subject, if the U.S. is so con-cerned about helping people establish democracy in their oppressive coun-tries why has it done nothing about the situation in Burma where the most despotic military dictatorship has been in power these past 30 years or so? Obama and Hillary have just visited the leader of the opposition who had been under house arrest for nearly 20 years, and only recently released.

To the Editor:Budget meetings are coming up for

the Town of Creston. I wanted to look at the financial statements prior to the

budget meetings to understand the town’s financial state and see if the financial reporting was relevant, reli-able and comparable to other commu-nities’ financial information (which is the main criterion of financial report-ing and wise decision making). From these statements I wanted to see how much we have coming in and from where — and see how much we owe, and to whom — long term and short term, and therefore see if the budget allocations and later budget decisions were wise.

I could not get these relevant fig-ures, and the town council does not get them either — no one has access to them now or access to them prior to budget decisions. The town council is given a net figure, I was told by the head of finance and corporate services, and from this individual figure the town council makes its budget deci-sions. The finance and corporate servic-es official would let me download 2011 financials, but that does not make rele-vant 2013 decisions.

If any corporation, company, or household ran their finances like this, they would probably be a lost cause very shortly. How can any institution know how to wisely handle their future finances without knowing where they made and will make their revenue from or who they owe money to? I was astounded. No wonder taxes are appar-ently higher in Creston than they are in West Vancouver, Victoria or Kelowna.

This interim 2012 financial report-ing (statements) needs to be freely available to all citizens of Creston, and for sure every town council should study them, before making any budget allocations.

In the Apostles’ Creed, Christians profess belief in “God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and Earth.” And yet, as some will point out, worshiping the Creator has not always resulted in caring for God’s creation.

Lynn White famously popularized Christian culpability in environ-mental exploitation, and many have since toed his line. Though his the-sis has been discredited by many historians of science and thought, it remains firmly entrenched in the com-mon mindset — that Christianity not only does not promote envi-ronmental care, it, in fact, supports the exploi-tation and degradation of the earth.

Not true. The Bible does not support the exploitation of creation. Oh, people have misin-terpreted and abused the words of Scripture to

excuse personal greed. But the truth is, the Bible teaches human responsibility to care for God’s creation. Humans — God’s images on Earth — were created so that the Earth would flourish. And humans are answerable to the Creator for

their stewardship of God’s earth.

Have Christians been on the forefront of environmental stew-ardship? No, to our shame, we haven’t. Have Christians ignored their own Scriptures on creation care? Unfortunately, yes, some have. Do Christians need to repent and ask the Creator’s forgiveness for the mess we’ve

made? Yes, absolutely. And a growing number of Christians are taking critical steps of repentance and action for the sake of God’s world.

Winter is a good time to concentrate on sounds of birds other than the calls and songs of spring and summer made by robins, warblers, song sparrows and buntings, to list a few. Now seemingly dominating the winter season are the calls of ravens, crows, Steller’s jays and pileated woodpeckers, whose loud “kak, kak, kak, kak” rings through the winter forest.

Detecting the location of a pileated woodpecker is not as challenging when it is calling as when it is just “chopping” at some tree. Now, when one is located, it is even more challenging to get close enough to this sometimes not-so-shy bird to find that there is a difference between some individuals. While on a winter walk, I chanced to get a close look of a pileated chopping away on a tree below my location. In the bright afternoon sun, I got a good view of its glistening red crest and the red “moustache” streaking back from the beak, a dis-tinguishing mark of a male pileated woodpecker.

The most common indication of the presence of woodpeckers, when winter’s chill permeates the forest, is the sound of their persistent pecking on the trunks of trees. That is how I have located most woodpeckers. However, determining the precise location may not be so easy, either. Once I heard the sound of pecking coming from some treetops. Unable to determine which tree it was, I put my ear to the trunks of several trees until I could clearly hear the pecking sound, loud and clear, through a specific trunk. It was then I knew which was its choice lunch stop.

Actually, I think some woodpeckers lunch all day long, cloudy or sunny. It doesn’t seem to mat-ter. Late one winter afternoon, I was on the edge of a dense stand of evergreen trees where I heard a pecking sound that I had heard there before. I tried to get a good view of the bird, which I expected was a northern three-toed woodpecker. It was on the right kind of tree, had the right pecking habit and was pecking where I had heard it before. But, here it was pecking away into the dusk till it got too dark for me to possibly identify it.

Not too many of us “listen for lunch”, but woodpeckers do. They will perch on a tree trunk, cock their head one way and then the other until they get a bearing on where to drill. The sounds of wood-boring beetle larvae carving their wooden tunnels just under the bark can, at least to a woodpecker, be quite audible. Once on a summer day I was snooping some woods when I heard a barely audible scraping sound coming from a tree trunk. I was able to pinpoint the loca-tion of the sound, whereupon I put my ear to the

trunk and heard it even more clearly. I am sure woodpecker hearing and smelling ability is much more acute than mine.

Tracking down a three-toed woodpecker is probably the most difficult, not because they are that quiet but because they are probably the least common of all our Kootenay woodpeckers. Along with that would be our black-backed woodpeckers. I sometimes call the three-toed a “ladder-backed” woodpecker because of the horizontal black stripes on the back between the black wings. However, ladder-backed is official-ly applied only to a woodpecker of agave com-munities of the southwestern United States. Our male three-toed and black-backed woodpeckers both have yellow crowns winter and summer. Last week the best view of a three-toed this sea-son came, in spite of crunchy snow, on a trail in the Arrow Creek district. This male was foraging on the lower trunk of a larch giving plain views of each side, the back and of the yellow crown.

Our two common woodpeckers are the hairy and the smaller downy woodpeckers. The hairy is nearly robin size and the downy is about half that, but when they are hard to distinguish that way, then, perhaps, they can be distinguished by the bill length compared to the head. The bill of the hairy is over half the length of its head and the bill of the downy is less than half the length of its head. Both males have a little red topknot.

This winter I have seen more hairy wood-peckers in pairs than individually. A pair is com-ing to my beef fat feeders. They, along with pile-ated woodpeckers, may be seen just about any-where there are trees or even hydro poles. The northern three-toed and black-backed wood-peckers favour dense forests of cedar-hemlock that include western larch.

Checking out our winter woodpeckers can make out door walks and exercise more interest-ing. Have fun!

The Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors operated through the holiday season with fewer numbers but just as enthusi-astic folks. Co-ordinators Bridget Currie and Rosalie Wilson have started up the programs for 2013 with the popu-lar errands project already helping seniors get important tasks done. The errands project has helped over 20 seniors get to medical and dental appoint-ments, the pharmacies, the post office, the bus depot, banks and the hairdresser. The ability to meet one’s own needs is vital to inde-pendence, self-esteem and good health. TAPS seniors have com-mented that this is one of our most valuable programs.

We think that this project has been successful because of its sim-plicity. If a senior requires a little help with an errand it is scheduled for Monday or Friday. Errands that can be handled independently are booked for Wednesdays. This proj-ect has been funded by a grant from the Creston-Kootenay Foundation.

Each year we operate with a theme in mind. Last year it was keeping seniors productive, and we contributed to our community by helping out the Gleaners, Meals on Wheels, Telus ambassadors, and other seniors at home and at Swan Valley Lodge and Crest View Village.

This year our objective will be to stay connected to our commu-nity and to help others to do so too. Staying connected with friends, family and community is

critical to remaining healthy, active and focused. It gets us out of the house, helps us maintain a sense of purpose and, because we are seniors, allows the communi-

ty to benefit from our wisdom and experi-ence.

We already benefit from partnerships with the Creston val-ley food action coali-tion, the College of the Rockies Commu-nity Greenhouse, Gleaners, Telus ambassadors from

Cranbrook, Harvest Share pro-gram, Creston Lions Club, both Rotary clubs, Creston and District Community Complex and College of the Rockies education programs. We will be looking for more oppor-tunities for our seniors to stay con-nected in their community. If you have an activity that you think seniors can contribute to, please let us know. We have skills and expe-rience to share.

Tammy Hardwick from the Creston Museum is starting up the reminiscing program with us again. This activity is a favorite of the seniors and is a wonderful way to spend the afternoon, listening and learning. We are hoping to start an activity with Wildfower School and have applied for funds to bring high school students to our site to learn skills needed in a commercial kitchen.

Mark your calendars for our annual Tarts and Tunes sing-along party. It will be Feb. 15 at 1 p.m. at Rotocrest Hall. Hope to see you there!

TAOIST TAI CHI

Improve your mind and body. Lift your spirit with Taoist Tai Chi, a gentle set of movements that promote health and well-being for people of all ages and in all health conditions.

Tai chi originates from an ancient Chinese art and system of holistic health practices which involve the movement of the spine and all parts of the body. The Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi Society teaches a set of 108 moves, a sequence of slow and graceful movements designed to help the body regain natural health by strengthening and relaxing both body and mind.

The beginner level helps the student develop body awareness and a healthy physical posture by gently moving the body in ways that optimize muscular relaxation, body alignment, co-ordination and balance. Beginners also learn the ben-efits of practicing together as a group, to let go of self-consciousness, to work at their own level of physical ability, to trust the group to guide and support them, and to have fun.

Continued practice of tai chi will increase circulation of blood and lym-phatic fluids, increase overall strength, mobility of joints and elasticity of mus-cles and tendons, improve breathing and cardiovascular fitness, enhance concen-tration and relaxation, reduce tension and stress, and generally improve a wide range of health problems such as poor circulation, high blood pressure,

arthritis, back pain, digestive disorders just to name a few.

The style taught by the Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi Society can be practiced by people of any age or in any state of health. It is a self-regulated form of exercise that lends itself to the needs of all participants. It is non-combative and non-competitive and is practiced for its health improving abilities.

Master Moy Lin-Shin, the founder of the society, was heir to the practices and tradition of the Taoist internal arts. His teachings combine an extensive knowl-edge of the Taoist classics with training he received from respected teachers in China and Hong Kong.

As a youth, Master Moy was afflicted with serious health problems. He recov-

ered his health through his study of tai chi and other internal Taoist arts. He under-stood the great potential to improve health and alleviate suffering with the practice of these disciplines and vowed to make the Taoist internal arts available to all who wished to learn them. To do so, Master Moy developed the Taoist tai chi internal art of health, an art that brings together the many insights he learned about the workings of human physiology, internal circulation and spiritual training. He immigrated to Canada in 1970 and formed the Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi Society, a registered charity through which he devoted the remainder of his life to help-ing others and making Taoist tai chi avail-able to all.

The Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi Society has since become an international society with members in more than 500 locations in 27 countries. Taoist tai chi is taught by members who have experienced the benefits of tai chi and wish to perpetu-ate Master Moy’s legacy by becoming accredited instructors teaching as volun-teers without monetary gain.

More information about the Fung Loy Kok Taoist Tai Chi Society can be found at www.taoist.org.

A beginner class starts Feb. 5 and runs from 9-11 a.m. at St. Stephen’s Presbyterian Church. The first class is always an open house and anyone curious about tai chi is welcome try it out, ask questions and join the group for tea. For class information, contact Lin Martin at [email protected] or 250-866-5744.

CRESTON VALLEYMINOR HOCKEY ASSOCIATION

For the second year in a row, the Creston Chiefs peewee team has finished the East Kootenay regular season undefeated. At home on Saturday versus Whitefish, the Chiefs led 3-0 after the first period and 7-1 after two, with the final score ending up 9-2.

The team did some good things, but needs to clean up its own end and quit turning the puck over. Overall, they did enough to keep the streak alive and also have some fun. Leading the way were Kale Plotnikoff with two goals and two assists, Shayne Walker with two goals and an assist, and Etienne Boutet with three assists.

Starting with the Trail tournament this com-ing weekend, the team has 17 games lined up from now until end of first weekend of March, which should have them ready for provincials being held in Creston.

•The first weekend in January, the Creston Valley Minor Hockey Association’s bantam rep Chiefs hosted a tournament. Five teams trav-elled to the Creston Valley, including High River, Elk Valley, Invermere, Spokane and Lethbridge. The boys started the play Friday afternoon with a tough loss, giving a shutout to Invermere. Matthew Armitage was starting goaltender and didn’t disappoint, allowing only one goal.

On the Friday evening, the boys battled hard but came up short with a final score of 7-5 against High River. Cole Bright was start-ing goaltender. Creston buried three goals in the first, by Ethan Plotnikoff assisted by Brody Ryan, Jake Kolodychuk assisted by Plotnikoff and Tyler Everitt, and Jake Livingstone assisted by Hunter Smeaton. Two second-period goals were scored, the first by Ryan assisted by Plotnikoff, and Plotnikoff, with his fourth point of the game, assisted by Kolodychuk.

On Jan. 5, the team faced Spokane and found a win and a shutout for starting goal-tender Bright with a final score of 6-0. Four goals for Creston were scored by Plotnikoff with assists by Everitt, Livingstone, Kolodychuk, Ryan and Alex Blackmore. Creston’s two other goals were scored by Kenton Blackmore assisted by Ryan and Plotnikoff, and Jordon Wood, unassisted.

That afternoon, the team was back at it against Lethbridge, which put two on the board in the first period, but Creston answered in the second, scoring two. The first goal was by Kolodychuk assisted by Livingstone and starting goaltender Armitage. Six minutes later, Livingstone sniped, with assists going to Vinson Blackmore and Ryan. In a tense third period, despite Lethbridge’s best efforts, only one

goal was scored and it was the game winner for Creston, by Alex assisted by Wood.

On Jan. 6, Creston played an early game against one of the tournament’s top team, Elk Valley, and won with a final of 3-2. Creston’s first goal was scored by Plotnikoff, assisted by Livingstone and Kolodychuk. Less than a min-ute later, Livingstone scored another, assisted by Plotnikoff and Everitt. With two minutes remaining in this exciting game, Livingstone scored his second goal and the game-winner with an assist from Plotnikoff. Armitage was the starting goaltender.

Elk Valley took first place in the tournament, with Invermere placing second. Third went to Lethbridge followed by the Creston Chiefs in fourth. High River followed in fifth, leaving Spokane in last place.

•On Jan. 18, the bantam rep team travelled to Princeton to compete in the Princeton and District Minor Hockey Association 2013 bantam Tier 3 Tournament.

On Friday evening, the boys faced Mission in their first of four games of the weekend. Matthew Armitage was starting goaltender. After a scoreless first period, Creston put three on the board in the second. The first was scored unassisted by Hunter Smeaton. Alex Blackmore was next up, assisted by Kenton Blackmore, followed by another unassisted goal by Brody Ryan. In the third period, Mission scored with 13 minutes on the clock. Ethan Plotnikoff answered with a fourth goal for Creston minutes later, assisted by Jordan Wood. A final score of 4-1 gave the boys a great start.

On Saturday afternoon, Creston battled West Vancouver and lost 5-4. Goals for Creston were scored by Plotnikoff, assisted by Ryan and Tyler Everitt, and a hat trick by Jacob Kolodychuk, with assists to Ryan and Plotnikoff. Goaltending was shared by Armitage and Cole Bright.

Later on Saturday, the boys faced another loss against the strong South Okanagan team, with a final score of 8-1. Creston’s only goal was scored by Kenton Blackmore assisted by Everitt. Goaltending was shared by Armitage and Bright.

On Sunday morning, the boys showed up to play, ending the tournament with a well deserved win against Aldergrove. Ryan scored a hat trick with an unassisted goal in the first period, and a goal each in the second and third, both assisted by Plotnikoff. Kolodychuk buried four goals, assisted by Alex Blackmore, Levi Palmer, Kenton Blackmore, Jake Livingstone and Smeaton. Plotnikoff also scored assisted by Armitage, as did Levi Palmer assisted by Kolodychuck. With two minutes remaining, Aldergrove scored their first and only of the game, giving a final score of 9-1. Goaltending was shared by Armitage and Bright.

Peewees finish East Kootenay season undefeated, Bantams

fourth in home tourney

Thunder Cats win two on weekend

BY BRIAN LAWRENCEAdvance Editor

The Creston Valley Thunder Cats are now tied for last place in the Eddie Mountain Division after win-ning two games on the weekend, beating the Golden Rockets 5-4 and Penticton Lakers 4-3 in overtime.

And with nine games left until the end of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League season, that’s what head coach Josh Hepditch hopes will keep happening.

“It’s been a while since we could string a few together,” he said. “But with our division being so tight, we’ve got to get on a roll and keep it going. It’s right down to the wire.”

On Friday, the Thunder Cats hosted the Golden Rockets for a game that started out well, with goals by Matthew Murray and Jesse Collins tying the score 2-2 after the first period.

“[Murray] really stepped it up in the first period and got the guys going,” said Hepditch.

Angus Johnston, assisted by linemates Ty Kronewitt and Matti Jmaeff, scored twice in the second to give the Thunder Cats a 4-2 lead.

“Two goals in one shift was a huge energy boost for us,” said Hepditch.

The boost didn’t last, though, and the Rockets scored twice in the third period, tying the score to send the game into overtime, which last-ed two minutes before Andrew Hodder scored on a power play.

“I give full credit to our players for staying with it and battling and finding a way to get that extra

point,” Hepditch said.Sunday’s home game against the

Penticton Lakers had a slow start, with the Lakers scoring three goals before Marcel Fuchs scored one for the Thunder Cats late in the second period. Angus Johnston and Ty Kronewitt scored in the third peri-od to tie the score 3-3.

“We showed some character and battled back to get into overtime,” said Hepditch.

After two minutes of overtime, the Thunder Cats won the game with a goal by Trevor Hanna.

The return of Jesse Collins, who had been out for weeks with an upper body injury, played a big part in the weekend’s wins.

“He provided some good leader-ship and offense,” said Hepditch.

On Friday, the Thunder Cats will visit the Fernie Ghostriders, who they beat 6-1 on the road and lost 3-2 in double overtime last month. The Ghostriders lead the Eddie Mountain Division with 57 points, one ahead of the Rockets, who are followed by the Kimberley Dynamiters with 45 and the Thunder Cats and Columbia Valley Rockies with 36.

“It‘s going to be another bit of a test for us,” said Hepditch. “They’re fighting for first and we’re fighting for every point we can get.”

The Spokane Braves will visit the next night, and although they have fewer points than the Creston team, the Thunder Cats have to stay on guard.

“We don’t want to fall in trap of thinking of them as a lower-place team,” said Hepditch.

Sasquatch hosting jazz quartet, electronic solo act

SUBMITTED

Stuart McRorie Tait’s live solo musical performance, McRorie, uses unique and innovative elec-tronic instruments to perform a variety of musical styles and originals in realtime. Using the skill and technique of “co-ordi-nated independence”, McRorie performs the multiple parts of a musical composition live.

Tait was born in Edmonton, where his family owned and operated a music school and store. Being immersed in music from an early age, he learned to play drums, vibes and accordi-on, sing vocals and even took tap lessons. In his teens, Tait sold drums at the store and taught drum lessons at the music school. He performed in concerts with his family, sang tenor in the church choir and also became the percussionist in a youth symphony.

It was his love for poly-rhythms that would lead to the study of advanced techniques for the modern drummer called co-ordinated independence. Mastering this technique allowed him to play more than one rhythm at once. This skill in com-bination with an innate ability and desire to focus and complete his own form of musical expres-sion would later become an asset in which he could evolve and complete his own unique form of musical endeavors and ideas.

Tickets to the Jan. 26 show are $10 at Black Bear Books or

Kingfisher Used Books, and $12 at the door, which opens at 6 p.m.; the show starts at 7.

• • •

Morgan Childs, a recipient of three Galaxy Rising Stars at the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, will perform modern jazz with three other musicians at the Snoring Sasquatch on Jan. 29.

After 10 years in the Vancouver music scene before moving to Toronto in 2009, Childs has built an international career as a per-former, and is highly regarded for his deep swing feel, sensitivi-ty, versatility and musicality, as well as his reverence for jazz his-tory and wide-ranging musical vocabulary.

His current group features three musicians from Toronto with equally impressive pedi-

grees: multi-award-winning sax-ophonist Kelly Jefferson, former Boss Brass pianist Dave Restivo and one of Toronto’s most in-demand bassists, Jon Maharaj. Their blend of sophistication and soul is a rare and unique treat!

In 2009, Childs won the Grand Prix du Jazz at the Montreal Jazz Festival, with pia-nist Amanda Tosoff’s acclaimed quartet. He returned to Montreal in 2012 and won the award again with legendary Hungarian-Canadian pianist Robi Botos. He is one of only a handful of musi-cians to win the award twice in its 35-year history.

Tickets are $15 in advance at Black Bear Books or Kingfisher Used Books, and $18 at the door, which opens at 6 p.m.; the show starts at 7.

From page 8Following Jesus,

more and more people are integrating care for the poor, the fight against social injustic-es and stewardship of God’s creation into a dynamic Christian spirituality.

We care for creation in obedience to the Holy Christian Scriptures. When Christians act against their own story, arguing that the Bible supports exploitation, they should be challenged biblically. The “rule” of Genesis 1:26 is loving stewardship, not ruth-less domination. God created this amazing world and gave humans responsibility, under him, to nurture and sustain it. God is so committed to creation that he became part of his creation in Jesus. God will not abandon it. And while we have messed things up, we are still responsible and response-able. As Christians, we must partner with others concerned with cre-ation, confident that we are being faithful as our Creator’s earth-keeping images.

If you are a Christian, what keeps you from faithful stew-ardship of God’s cre-ation? Have you been reading your Bible obediently or evasive-ly? If you are of anoth-er faith or no faith, are you willing to read up on the Christian basis of creation care and then challenge your Christian friends from their own scriptures? Bringing this out in the open may make for some interesting con-versations!

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, cre-ator of heaven and Earth. And I believe God placed his precious and yet broken and groaning world into our hands. God hasn’t taken that responsibili-ty back; we are still God’s Earth keepers. It’s time to be the loving caretakers God created us to be, to God’s glory and for the sake of God’s good Earth.

Lloyd Eliot Ibbitson

Lloyd came to the Creston Valley with his parents from North Battleford, SK in 1933. After receiving his education at Creston Valley High School, he enrolled at the Molar School in Vancouver to learn the barbering trade. He spent his apprenticeship under his father in Creston and eventually took over the shop. He retired in 1997 after working for 52 years. The atmosphere at Lloyd's Barber Shop was friendly and often humourous. It was a well known main street gathering place for people from all walks of life.As a youth, Lloyd was a trumpet player who, as a member of the C.V. H. S. band, participated in some of the local Blossom Festival parades. While growing up he and his brother raised and sold raspberries on an acreage where lbbitson Street is now located.In 1947 he married Marie Seitz of Medicine Hat, a quiet artistic lady who was well known for her homemaking abilities.Lloyd was a skilled orchardist, having learned the art of pruning, grafting and other aspects of fruit management from his mentor Lyle Kemp, a once local fruit grower. For many years Lloyd grew Rob Roy apples and cherries on his hobby farm on Devon Road.He was also an ardent sherman who spent many hours shing in his boat on Kootenay Lake with his father Roy, son Don and grandson Jason.Lloyd will be remembered for his humour and his stories of the early days of Creston. He was a witness to the widening of Canyon Street circa 1947. He said the workmen who moved the buildings were so skillful that he was able to keep on working as the shop was jacked up and moved backward with little discernable movement during the operation.Lloyd was predeceased by his parents, brother Bobby, wife Marie and son-in-law Slim Charman.He is survived by sister Noretta (Keith), Crawford Bay; sons Don (Jennie), Creston and Doug (Lorraine), Salmon Arm; daughter Marj Charman, Creston; four grandchildren; ve great-grandchildren; one niece and two nephews.

By request there will be no service.Memorial donations may be made to the

nne (nee nna Ha chu ) uathamer

Anne did not awaken from her afternoon nap.Son Jay was with her as he so often was

since she became a resident ofCrest View Care Village in May 2008.

arch 10, 192~

January13, 2013

The second daughter of Mary and William Ha chuk, she was born in Ethelbert, MB where Mary had gone for her con nement at her parents’, Ostap and Dokia Kotyk, homestead. Anne grew up on a farm in the Coteau Hills south of Moose Jaw, SK. She attended the Ranch School nishing rade 8. Out of school she worked on the family farm, at the family corner store with her sister Olga and in a Chinese restaurant in Moose Jaw. Anne eventually decided to travel and would spend her summers in BC picking fruit, canning fruit, canning sh and working in a biscuit factory. In

winter she would return home.In 1949 she met a nice young fellow at a Vancouver dance hall. Eventually she moved to MacTier, ON and on June 13, 1950 married Turk uathamer in Sudbury, ON. They settled in MacTier until an unfortunate railway event caused Turk to be suspended for two years. They moved to Sudbury, ON where their daughter, Judy, was born in August 1952. By October 1953 they were back living in MacTier and Jay was born in arry Sound, ON.Tired of renting, Turk and Anne built their own home under the Veterans’ Land Act in Humphrey, ON in virgin bush but on the lot next to Humphrey Central School. They moved into their partially nished home a week before Christmas 1958. Following more tree removal Mom had her garden which eventually expanded to about an acre on Sandy Plains Road. Seeds for next year’s planting were purchased with money she earned selling corn and other vegetables to the tourists. The family expanded with the arrival of Jami in 19 1 and Jeffrey in 19 3. She was awarded an Ontario Volunteer Medal for her volunteer roles in Humphrey Township.There were biennial visits back to Saskatchewan, always by train since Dad had a CPR pass. After Dad’s retirement in 1983 they travelled all over North America with their truck and 5th wheel. One winter in Florida was enough for Mom. They settled on winters in uma, Arizona. In April 1991 on their way back to Ontario they stopped in Creston and bought a log cabin on 1 th Ave S. Mom served as Treasurer of the Swan Valley ood Sam Club for many years.

She was an active member of Christ Church Creston. When the days were sunny Anne could be found out in the courtyard with her hat and sunglasses in her wheelchair. She also participated in the CVCV After Dinner Mints bandAnne is survived by her four children, six grandchildren and one great-grandson Judy, Alexandra (nee Moore) Lepine (Patrick) and Samuel of Edmonton, AB; Jay (Marsha Plant), Creston, BC; Jami (Barb) Arnprior, ON, Raili at Western niversity, London, ON; Hanna at Royal Military College, Kingston, ON, and Natalie, at home; and Jeff (Sandra) Parry Sound, ON, Lauren at eorgian College, Barrie, ON and Mitchell at Western niversity, London, ON. She is also survived by sister Olga Hnylycia, Moose Jaw, SK; brothers Peter, Ottawa, ON; and Dan (Patricia) Regina, SK; great-aunt Mable Kotyk, Toronto, ON; and two cousins Paul Kotyk, Toronto, ON; and Marianna Kotyk (Don Richardson) Toronto, ON plus numerous nieces and nephews and their offspring on the uathamer side of the family in Saskatchewan.Anne was predeceased by her husband Thurston Oliver Alerd (Turk)

uathamer; her parents; brother-in-law Joe Hnylycia; sisters-in-law Wanda (nee Wert) Ha chuk, Evonne Talbourdet and Wilhemina Thomas (Turk’s sisters); and son-in-law Samuel Moore.To each of us she passed on some of her loves and talents. We have super pie bakers, pyrohy makers, sewers, baby bathers, gardeners, shers, hockey watchers and players, travellers and sun worshippers in the family, albeit no one got everything or we’d all be awesome just like Annie.The family would like to extend their appreciation to the staff at CVCV for their care and attention. Nail polish, hairdos, a friendly voice and the odd hand holding are very important when you have limited mobility.

A Memorial Service will be held at Christ Church Anglican, Creston BC at 1100 hrs, January 25, 2013, Reverend

Robin Celi of ciating.A private family Internment of Ashes

will take place later.In lieu of owers a memorial donation to the Osteoporosis Society of British

LOCAL NEWS

CRESTON OVEREATERS ANONYMOUS

Maria R. (to respect anonymity, names have been changed) was 65 years old and weighed close to 200 pounds when she first noticed that walking had become painful. A doctor told her she had developing osteoarthritis, a physio-therapist showed her some exercises to strengthen specific muscles and a mas-sage therapist helped her relax. But her pain levels didn’t change.

All the professionals agreed that los-ing weight would alleviate her situa-tion, but Maria had tried that before without any lasting success. She had gone on diets, restricted certain foods, attended weight loss clinics and retreats, and joined diet and calorie groups, but each time she lost weight, she gained it back again.

She had to find a different solution and she decided to try Overeater’s Anonymous (OA). She approached a friend, Selma P., who was also strug-gling with obesity and arthritis pain, and together in early November 2012, they started Freedom First, an OA

group. Since then, Selma has lost 23 pounds. Maria is 27 pounds lighter than when she began her quest for health. Both women are now walking without pain.

Every year, women and men spend tens of thousands of dollars on weight loss schemes. They join clubs where they count calories, weigh in or have extreme exercise regimes. Maria and Selma have both tried all those meth-ods, but not one of the methods brought lasting success. Each time the women lost weight, they gained it back again. Since getting active in OA, they have given up dieting, have stopped fighting with food and are slowly developing a healthy relationship with the foods that sustain them.

The first OA meeting was held in 1960 in Los Angeles, Calif. Since that time it has grown to about 7,000 meet-ings in more than 80 countries — about 54,000 members. OA is not just about weight loss, weight gain or mainte-nance, obesity or diets. Instead, the OA program offers physical, emotional and spiritual recovery for those who suffer from compulsive eating. Members find

recovery on all three levels by following a twelve-step program patterned after Alcoholics Anonymous. Members who recover through the twelve steps find that yo-yo dieting and obsession with food is a thing of the past.

OA is not affiliated with any public or private organization, political move-ment, ideology or religious doctrine. No membership dues or fees are required for participation in OA. The organiza-tion is self-supporting through mem-bers’ voluntary donations and the sale of OA literature.

This article is the beginning of a pub-lic information project initiated by Maria and Selma. They have put posters up around Creston and information packets have been placed in the offices of Creston’s health service practitioners.

If you have a troubled relationship with food and weight, Maria and Selma invite you to come to a meeting and see if OA is for you. The group meets Sundays at 7 p.m. at 824 Regina St. (use the ninth Avenue gate).

For more information, call 250-428-6500 or 250-428-0439 and ask for Overeaters Anonymous.

COLLEGE OF THE ROCKIES

The inaugural Brandon Salviulo Memorial Scholarship for $1,000 was recently presented to Adam Ravenstein, a student in College of the Rockies fire services program.

The Salviulo family has raised over $40,000 so far in memory of their son, Brandon, who passed away in a tragic ATV accident in 2009. With the help of the Creston-Kootenay Foundation, which is managing the funds, the Salviulo’s are honouring Brandon’s dream of becoming a firefighter.

Ravenstein, a student in the fire train-ing certificate program, was very happy to be the first recipient of this scholarship.

“I am honoured to be chosen,” he said. “I love what I’m doing so having this scholarship helps me to feel even better about going to school.”

Presenting the scholarship to Ravenstein was an emotional experi-ence for Brandon’s parents, Enzo and Laurel, as they saw their dream of hon-ouring their son realized. They are grateful for all the help the received along the way.

“Enzo, Morgan, Bryanna and I would

like to thank all of the volunteers, busi-nesses and participants for all of the dona-tions over the last three years that allowed us to create this scholarship in Brandon’s name,” said Laurel. “We want each and every person who helped out to feel that they are a part of this scholarship.”

Information regarding the fundrais-ing efforts for this fund can be found on the Brandon Salviulo Memorial Scholarship Facebook page.

For more information about fire ser-vices training at College of the Rockies, call 250-489-8243, email [email protected] or visit www.cotr.bc.ca/fire.
