Menolo (left) and Francis were relaxing in Memorial Park on Saturday. The two, who had been following the fruit harvest in the Similkameen, were in the process of moving on as the season winds down. Manolo, who hails from Spain, said that he had come to Canada to work, but was spending all the money he made. Francis, who is from the Lower Mainland, said there was dif� cult � nding adequate work in the � elds and orchards this year. “Every year, there seems to be less and less,” he observed.

Sewer line expansion from Okanagan Falls to Skaha Estates and Kaleden will proceed when se-nior government funding becomes available, residents were told at the October 16 town hall meeting in Okanagan Falls.

One hundred and forty lots, comprising 32 hectares and bounded by an area east of Oak Avenue, along Alder and Pon-derosa and including First and Fifth Avenues will be hooked up to the Okanagan Falls wastewater

treatment plant in the � rst phase, Regional District Okanagan Falls Engineer Liisa Bloom� eld told those assembled.

“The bench area of upper Kaleden is not economically feasible at present,” Bloom� eld explained.

Current plans - which are conceptual only - route the sewer line up Eastside Road to Skaha Estates. From there, it will travel underneath Skaha Lake to the Kaleden lakeshore.

There are 183 connections in Skaha Estates.

Estimates peg the cost for Kaleden at 7.8 million dollars, or $154,000 per connection; however with two thirds funding, that � g-ure will drop to $18,000 per con-nection. Kaleden ratepayers would be on the hook for 3,220 metres of gravity sewers, 1,600 metres of forcemain, 1,000 metres of lake

forcemain and two liftstations.Skaha Estates costs are esti-

mated at 7.8 million dollars, with individual connections ultimately pegged at $15,000. Skaha Estates ratepayers would be paying for 4,400 metres of gravity sewers, 1,000 metres of forcemain and two liftstations.

The forcemain from Skaha Estates to the wastewater treat-ment plant would be cost shared between the two communitys.

Several residents present at the meeting urged the regional district to continue work towards bringing the sewer connection to the two communities. Bloom� eld out-lined next steps, which included the development of a preliminary design, applying for grant funds and creating a service area. She said work on the connection could begin in as early as � ve years.

Okanagan Falls incorporation was the hottest topic discussed at the October 16 town hall meeting held at the Okanagan Falls seniors centre.

Area “D” Director Tom Siddon described the past attempt to incor-porate Okanagan Falls in the early 1990s, noting that the community had been in existence for 115 years, and never incorporated.

He described different forms of governance the people of Okana-gan Falls might want to consider, intimating that a provincial deci-sion regarding funding of a governance study - part one of a two stage study - might be imminent.

“If the province agrees to a governance study, it doesn’t assume anything,” he said. “Should the governance study yield favourable results, there would be an incorpo-ration study. A plan would be developed in front of the community and ultimately, a vote taken on incorporation. It’s not going to happen over-night, but I think we should look at the question.”

Not everyone in attendance agreed with Siddon. One resident demanded to know why he was pushing the study, and incoporation on the community.

“There are a number of people who feel we should look at this question, otherwise it wouldn’t be on the agenda tonight,” Siddon told the objector.

Siddon then asked for a show of

hands of those in favour of study-ing incorporation, the result of which appeared to be evenly split between yes and no.

Many of those attending were concerned about costs associated with both incorporation and the studies themselves.

“Who’s paying for this?” asked another resident, to which Siddon replied that it would come through provincial expenditures.

“What part of ‘no’ don’t you un-derstand?” asked an Eastside Road resident, to which Siddon replied that he hadn’t heard any more “no” than he had “yes.”

“We came here for the lifestyle of the town,” the resident continued, “other people want sidewalks, they want streetlights - they want exactly what they left when they came here. We like the dark, we like to see the stars.”

Siddon asked the assembly how they felt about the community - were they satis� ed with it the way

it was, or did they want to develop and change with present reali-ties, to which a show of hands ap-peared to be, once again, evenly split between those present. Sid-don faced strong oppos-

tion from one member of the audi-ence in particular, who continued to demand answers, only to refute Siddon’s replies.

“I appreciate your comments, ma’am, but I think others might have something to say,” Siddon � nally said, in an attempt to move the meeting forward.

“I don’t know whether I’m for or against incorporation, the same as sewers, but I’ll tell you one thing,” said another member of the audi-

ence, “ if we don’t start moving the downtown core forward, we’re going to end up looking like poor old Oroville,” to which he received scattered applause.

Another resident said that while he didn’t favour incorporation, he felt that the last time the issue was raised, there wasn’t suf� cient information available to make a reasoned decision.

“At the end of the day, we will decide whether what will happen,” he said. “Whether or not that is in-corporation, it will be our decision. Getting this study started - getting it done, can only give us the infor-mation we need.”

Former Penticton councillor Joanne Grimaldi asked Siddon why he felt the community needed a mayor and council to replace Sid-don, noting that the regional dis-trict currently provided Okanagan Falls with administration.

“After 22 years of council, I’m very familiar with what goes behind the mayor and council, and all of the infrastructure, the public works, the electrical, the administration, the treasurer, clerk, etc., so perhaps you can explain?”

Siddon replied that he didn’t know the answers either, noting that Grimaldi, as former councillor had powers and jurisdiction that he, as director, did not have.

“We don’t control our own des-tiny,” Siddon said.

Siddon stated further that it wasn’t his life’s wish to become the mayor of Okanagan Falls, but he believed there was a place for de-mocracy at the community level.

“I asked the mayor of Keremeos, Mayor Bauer, the other day, how he liked the system of government in Keremeos - would he go back?

‘We’d never go back, he (Bauer) said, ‘we control our own destiny when it comes to developing the amenities of that community’ - and we don’t control our own destiny,” Siddon commented anecdotally.

Similkameen Elementary Second-ary School’s alternate program recently partnered with Cobs Bread of Pentic-ton, receiving a large bin of bread on Wednesday, October 16.

SESS’ alternate program class indi-vidually wraps the bread, which comes in a variety of loaf styles and flavours. The school uses the bread in the elementary and secondary school in a variety of pro-grams. including: the alternate class, the Aborginal education program, the cafete-ria program and the breakfast programs.

Any remaining loaves are distributed to the local food bank.

“The program is actually a partner-ship with the community,” said Naomi Ludington, who heads up the SESS Alternate Program. “The bread gets used in breadfast and lunch programs at the school, in addition to being donated to the local food bank.” Ludington said that the program will continue on a weekly basis, with the school receiving loaves each Monday morning.

Cobs Bread was pleased to find a way to distribute their bread through this program, rather than throwing excess loaves away.

Child Care Worker Leslie Silviusjoins students Emma Merritt, Mike Moroz, Courtney Catastrophee, and Ashley Brown as they wrap bread for distribution to various programs at Similkameen Elementary Secondary School on Wednesday, October 16. The school has partnered with Cobs Bread in Penticton to use the bakery’s excess bread.

The South Okanagan Women in Need Society (SOWINS) is the recipient of fund-ing from the Valley First Foundation for our project “WE - Nourishing the Nurtur-ing Nature of Women”.

WE - Nourishing the Nurturing Nature of Women is an innovative program that combines personal growth and food secu-rity; a natural link for empowering women and providing a foundation for life-long changes for abused women.

The funding is integral to the success of the program. Valley First is to be com-mended for its dedication to improving lives in our community through the recognition and support of food security.

The program is for women to learn and practice food security basics. Participants

will learn how to garden, prepare and pre-serve their produce and stretch their food budget while choosing a healthy diet.

Rooted in the healing benefits of gar-dening and the empowerment of develop-ing self-reliance, the project will help each woman develop her ability to nourish and nurture herself and her children.

Participants may also expand their social support network and community connect-edness through the collaborative decision making, planning and working together that will form the foundation of this proj-ect.

If it sounds interesting for yourself or someone you know, please contact Samar-pan at the SOWINS office to learn more - 250-493-4366 ext 110 or [email protected]

EditorialIncorporation costs must be clarified

The issue of an incorporation study for Okanagan Falls was the main topic of interest at last week’s town hall meeting in that community.

It was difficult to gage the degree of senti-ment, pro or con, of residents at the gathering to the prospect of having Okanagan Falls become a village.

However, at Area “D” Director Tom Sid-don’s request for a show of hands on the issue, it would probably be fair to say that there ap-peared to be roughly equal votes for and against the idea.

Based on the meeting, it appears residents are ready to look at a provincially funded study for incorporation, at the very least.

It was interesting to note that two speakers from the audience - one a former municipal staffer and another who was a former councillor - warned those present about the costs inherent in incoporation, costs related to infrastructre through administration and the various new responsibilities the community would be respon-sible for.

The former municipal staffer felt that the study was necessary in order to make an in-formed decision, but also had reservations that the cost of incorporation would be too high.

Should the province decide to fund a study in the coming weeks or months, it will be interest-ing to see what information will ultimately be provided.

There was a strong sentiment at the meet-ing that the cost of incorporation had to be revealed before an informed decision could be made. Hopefully if a study is done it will include an easy to understand breakdown of the cost of incorporation - because at this point in time, that appears to be the biggest issue factoring into the descision that Okanagan Falls residents may ultimately have to face.

My family has been fortunate that we haven’t yet had serious or chron-ic illness to deal with.

Like most people, however, we have had a few occasions where one member of the family or another has been hos-pitalized. For me, it has always been during these periods when I most thankful that I live in Canada.

As much bad public-ity as we seem to hear everyday about the health care system in Canada, I have to say I personally have few reasons not to appreciate what we have here.

I realize that it’s expensive, that other people haven’t perhaps been as fortunate as my family has when it comes to health care services, but it sure is comforting to know that you can get sick in this country, with a pretty good chance of getting excellent treat-

ment, without ending up bankrupt.

Case in point. Re-cently, my 90 year old father went into Pentic-ton Regional Hospital for a routine procedure, routine for a younger generation, at least.

My dad developed some post surgical com-plications, symptoms of which became apparent on the day of his dis-charge.

He ended up spend-ing 16 days in hospital when generally one or two would suffice. Things were pretty dicey for the first few days following his operation, as medical staff performed tests and came up with a diagnosis. But within a couple of days, his treatment began to take effect, and he was eventually discharged, pretty exhausted by the ordeal, but on the whole, healthier than when he went in.

In spite of the fact that his hospital stay ended up being two weeks longer than anticipated, he was also able to return to his

own home with his bank account more or less intact.

He could have lived without the procedure, but it would have severely compromised the quality of his life.

“I don’t regret the choice I made,” he said, even when things were at their worst.

I thought he had made the right decision, too, especially after seeing how his doctors and the rest of the hospital staff worked their magic.

“If you’re sick, this is the place to be,” my dad said after one particularly bad day. He was very im-pressed with the care and attention the staff had for everyone in his room.

“There are a lot of pretty nurses in here,” he observed another time.

I began thinking may-be he had other reasons not to leave the hospital.

My brother, who lives in Ontario, came out to visit. He, too was im-pressed with the profes-sionalism and human touch exhibited by Pent-

icton Regional staff. The regular staff’s

resources were bolstered by an infusion of nurs-ing students from UBC Okanagan during my fa-ther’s stay. They took the time to small talk, got to know their patients and understand what their issues were.

I think my dad’s case is an example of the com-passion and professional-ism that one can find in our system.

I would like to think such a system will still be in place when I am older.

There’s no end to media stories about our health care system’s prob-lems, as well as stories about what goes wrong within the system. I agree we have problems that need to be solved, but from a personal point of view, the primary health care institution in our re-gion - Penticton Regional Hospital and its staff - is not one of them.

Thanks for every-thing you did guys - you really made my family’s Thanksgiving.

At the local level, our health care system looks pretty good to meBy Steve Arstad [email protected]

To the Editor:A message to Foster Parents from the

Okanagan Foster Parents Association…Three Cheers for Foster Families! Foster parents you are a special breed! It

takes a combination of love, care, firmness, boundaries, structure, nurture, forgiveness, compassion and toughness to meet the needs of our children in care.

You open your homes, hearts and families to children that have complex issues, and special needs, this takes people like you with courage, determination, patience, empathy and strength.

The Okanagan Foster Parents Associa-tion would like to express gratitude for your warmth and compassion. We also encourage you to pat yourselves on the back. The work done on a day to day basis by you the Foster Parents is invaluable, upstanding and often

unacknowledged.This month brings recognition to all foster

parents for your continued commitment to improve the lives of children and youth, and to go above and beyond while meeting the needs of these children and youth.

October is Foster Family Appreciation month in B.C. readers, if you know someone who is a foster parent, let them know how special they are. We at OFPA salute each and every one of them.

As the Okanagan Foster Parents Associa-tions’ new South Okanagan Foster Parent Coordinator, I look forward to establishing positive, empowering relationships with our Foster Parent Community and Community Partners.

Sincerley, and in Appreciation, Melanie Boyko- South Okanagan Foster

Parent Coordinator-OFPA

To the Editor:Since becoming an old coot, I have been

enjoying ocean cruises, and thus meeting a lot of tourists and talking about holidays. I have talked with Canadians and Americans, of course, but also with countless tourists from Asia, Latin America and Europe. I have also travelled North America and Europe by auto-mobile every year.

Everywhere I go, I have asked people why they come to Canada on their holidays. The an-swer is almost always that they want to visit our national parks. On a recent cruise to Alaska, all these people told me that they had been to

Banff and Lake Louise and Kootenay National Park, but none had been to the Okanagan.

Parks Canada knows this. They know that tourism brings a lot of foreign and domestic cash to the park’s region. And the merchants in the towns that happen to be lucky enough to be in or near national parks know it too. Ask store-owners and hoteliers and restaurant managers in Banff.

There are a lot of reasons to desire a national park between Keremeos and the South Okana-gan, but the business opportunities certainly make up a major one. Don’t you think?

George Bowering, OC, OBC, Vancouver

Fall is definitely here, and I hope every-one had a good summer. Each month, I will be sharing issues and challenges facing our government as our population ages, and some of the progress being made to address those issues. All of you are aware that over the next 20 years there will be even greater numbers of seniors needing health-related services, and that it will not be possible, given our smaller workforce, to keep funding health care at the current rate.

There is a new guide called “My Voice: Expressing my wishes for future health care treatment,” available online atWWW.GOV.BC.CA/HEALTHYAGING, to help you and your family with advanced planning on aging and health care. Decisions made early about your housing, transportation and other areas of care will help you avoid making difficult choices when there may be fewer options.

There are questions you need to address now. What will you do when you can no lon-ger drive? Do you live where there is a public transportation system? Is there an alternative method of transportation in your community? What if you fall or have a mild stroke? Is your home wheelchair accessible? Each year one in three seniors will experience at least one fall accounting for 85 per cent of all injuries to seniors over 65.

What if your spouse or partner dies or can no longer physically live with you? What other support system or family do you have that you can rely on?

What can you do now to ensure you stay healthy longer? How will you stay connected to your community and continue to do all the things you currently enjoy?

At the age of 55 or 60, we do not like to think about these issues, but it is better to sit down with family and talk about it now than to wait until a crisis happens later in life. I would encourage all of you to start having

these discussions early, and access the wide range of resources our province has made available.

My role as Parliamentary Secretary for Se-niors has afforded me the opportunity to raise awareness for these issues, and I look forward to continuing my work with the Ministry of Health. In our riding, as your MLA, there have also been several developments that I would like to discuss.

My heart goes out to the people of Grand Forks, the Mayor, Council and Staff as they work through the issue surrounding the fire at the Town Hall. I know they continue to serve the community from their temporary space, while the damage is repaired. A special thanks to the wide-awake neighbour who prevented further damage, and the quick response of the fire department.

On a more positive note, this is harvest time for our beautiful area. From apples, to pumpkins, to grapes - it is a busy time for all. Recognition for the hard work of our agricul-ture industry continues to come our way with the proclamation of Organic Farming Week in BC, just another way that government acknowledges the value and quality of the food we eat and the people who grow it. We also have a strong cattle industry in our area, and I’m looking forward to seeing a B.C. Beef brand take up more space in our stores in the future.

Thanks to all the Volunteers from recent community events, including the Rock Creek Fair and the Keremeos Pepper Festival, who work hard to bring attention to our agricul-ture industry.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on all of these issues and other local concerns you might have. You can email me at [email protected], or call my constitu-ency office at 250-498-5122.

Business opportunities abound with a national park

October is the month to appreciate foster parents

The ladies at the Keremeos Senior’s Cen-tre, along with a few friends in the com-munity, knitted and crocheted 212 purple baby hats this year. The hats were taken to a yarn shop in Kelowna (the nearest drop-off) where they were picked up for delivery

to B.C.’s Childrens Hospital for the annual campaign to educate and prevent shaken baby syndrome. The campaign is held in November. For more information about shaken baby syndrome, and for some good advice on how to deal with a crying baby, go to:

www.clickforbabies.org/learn-about.phpThe campaign is called “Period of

Purple Crying”. The word “period” means that the crying has a beginning and an end, and the word “purple” is an acronym to help parents and caregivers recognize and remember the characteristics of normal infant crying.

Kadia Schwetje, Pam Irwin, Sandra Charette, Valerie Organ, Pearl MacDonald and Christine Davis pose around the group’s sewing and quilting efforts. The Keremeos Busy Fingers Craft Group meet Tuesdays at the Seniors Centre.

Elections will take place this fall for two positions on the Lower Similka-meen Indian Band council.

Band chief and one council position are up for election in 2013.

Nominations for

chief and council positions took place on October 22, with an all candidates’ forum scheduled for October 28.

An advance poll is set for November 2, with the election set for Monday, November 4.

Keremeos Director Manfred Bauer asked regional district staffer Lindsay Bourque to find out what the provincial heritage branch intends to do with heritage sites like Keremeos Grist Mill and Gardens.

He told the board and staff that he was receiving different messages from the heritage branch with respect to the Grist Mill, one that appeared to have the branch divesting itself of heritage sites, while the other message talked of developing busi-ness plans for the operation.

“It’s a time sensitive issue,” Bauer said, “we need to know their objective.

If they are not interested in heritage sites, we should know their intention there.”

Area “G” Director Angelique Wood also expressed an urgency in a “need to know what’s going on.”

The Regional District Okanagan Similkameen Board of Directors gave three readings to a service establish-ment bylaw that would provide funding for the Similkameen Coun-try Visitor Informa-tion Centre at the board’s October 3 meeting.

The bylaw would replace grant in aid funding to the visitor centre, previously provided through the Village of Keremeos and Areas “B” and “G”. Establishment of a service will enable the infocentre to prepare annual bud-gets with the assur-ance of sustainable core funding from the regional district.

Area “G” Di-rector Angelique Wood said that the bylaw would give some certainty to the visitor centre operations, while Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer noted that the oper-ating budget of the info centre had been subject to various budgets for the last 10 years.

Before the board can adopt a service establishment bylaw, however, the prov-ince and service area voters must give their approval.

It is anticipated that voter approval will come through the alternate ap-proval process, where elector approval would be acheived if fewer than 10 per cent of electors in the service area submit elector response forms.

The bylaw will now go to the pro-vincial Inspector of Municipalities for consideration before returning for con-stituent approval.

Halloween Tips for Parents and

Homeowners from What To Do With

The Kids® What To Do With The Kids® is not only the website that parents go to when they want to know what to do with their kids but also a popular place to visit when planning your Halloween festiv-ities. The fun can be found at www.whattodowiththekids.com. Our Halloween collection includes tips on how to create a haunted house, throw a spooktacular Halloween party featuring party invitations and Halloween crafts to entertain the kids. The kids can have their faces painted easily with a simple yet creative design and your jack-o-lantern will be the envy of the neighborhood when using one of our unique pumpkin stencils. We have also developed two separate trick or treat tip sheets for parents taking their kids out and for the homeowners who hand out the goodies. Here are a few tips that will hopefully prepare parents for make the evening fun for everyone.Encourage the kids to use facial make up instead of a mask.Spend the extra dollar and purchase quality make-up. You don’t want your kid to have that same look weeks later.If possible, design the costume to accommodate a sweater or even a jacket underneath depend-ing on the weather.Make sure that all costumes and accessories are flame resistant.Keep in mind how much walking they’ll be doing for their age. You don’t want to have to carry your little ghoul home.Carry extra bags to dump candy in so the kids don’t get overly tired.If you have more than one kid to supervise, try

bringing a wagon or cart to unload the candy in as they go door to door.If you’re taking other kids with you, set out the rules before you leave and make sure they under-stand.

Instruct the kids to stay with you and off the lawns and out of the gardens.Remind the kids to say thank you, even if they get crappy candy.Be prepared to carry their props after a while.Inspect all candy when you get home. Throw away homemade, unwrapped or open candy.Let them have one piece of wrapped candy while on the walk as a treat/break.Bring a flashlight and give them glow sticks to wear.Don’t let them walk in the middle of the streets. Cars will still travel on roads October 31st.If the front light is out but they have Halloween decorations, there is a good chance that they have no more candy.If the lights are out and don’t have any decorations, the people are most likely hiding in the back and have no candy to give.Carry a small, portable first aid kit for those little cuts and injuries.Many people bring their dogs with them and dress them up in costumes such as a hot dog or a devil. Instruct the kids to ask the owner if they can pet the animal BEFORE they do.

There is a good chance that the animal is embarrassed to be in a costume and may want to take it out on a kid.When the kids go to the door, stay close by and watch carefully.Set a strict curfew for older kids that go out on their own.Kids are NEVER to go into the house unless YOU know them.If you have to drive, slow down more than usual.Give the kids a snack before they go out. They won’t complain about being hungry and want to eat the candy.Take half the candy and place it in the freezer for use in the summer.Here are a few tips for homeowners on Halloween:1. Keep the path to your door clear of all obstacles and well lit.2. Don’t terrorize the kids. It’s all about fun and not making them wet their pants.3. Be extremely careful with the candle in your pumpkin so that nothing bursts into flames,

including a kid’s costume. Consider using a battery powered light or glow sticks.4. Use flashlights, glow sticks or electric lights with the power cord safe and secured.5. If you have a dog, keep it in another room and away from the door.6. If you’re going to give candy, give only store bought and wrapped items such as chocolate

bars, chips, etc. Loose candy will be thrown out by the parents.7. Alternative giving can include pencils, erasers or stickers with a Halloween theme.8. If you’ve spent a lot of time on your Halloween display, you may want to consider putting

some sort of SAFE fencing around it so that everyone can enjoy it without it being tram-pled.

9. Halloween candy is magically calorie and fat free on Octo-ber 31st so feel free to use the “one for you, one for me” rule.

regional news

New RCMP InspectorInspector Kevin Hewco, Officer in Charge of the South Okana-

gan Similkameen Regional Detachment, introduced himself to the regional district board on October 17.

The new inspector, who takes over from Brad Haugli, promised to put an emphasis on “service delivery” with respect to the de-tachments under his command.

The policeman, who has 27 years of experience under his belt, told the board that he was also aware of the cost of local policing. “It’s a big ticket item,” he said, “and I’m sensitive to that.”

Budget variances The board was briefed on third quarter budget variances by

RDOS Finance Manager Sandy Croteau.She told the board that the regional district was on track to have

an overall surplus of $965,000 this year, but a large deficit is antici-pated for Campbell Mountain landfill, which could be in the order of $450,000. The board was advised that it may have to consider a tax increase if deficits at Campbell Mountain continue.

Unanticipated legal fees of $15,000 were incurred by the Kere-meos and District Volunteer Fire Department this year, and capital expenditures over budget have also resulted in a deficit of $25,000 at the Keremeos landfill. Keremeos Director Manfred Bauer re-quested clarification on the landfill deficit.

AAP deadline for Infocentre funding setThe board agreed to set a deadline for elector response forms for

the Alternate Approval Process regarding funding for the Similka-meen Country Visitor Information Centre.

A total of 4,088 eligible electors are in the Infocentre service area, thereby requiring 409 elector responses to prevent the bylaw from proceeding.

Reserve established for economic developmentThe board agreed to create a reserve fund for $25,000 worth of

unused funds earmarked for economic development. Fifty thou-sand dollars had originally been set aside for this year’s economic development spending, but only $25,000 was spent.

Airport discussionThe regional district board agreed to a recommendation to

maintain communications with the federal government regarding the Penticton airport.

The recommendation was made acceptable to the board by the exclusion of a phrase that included “ownership and operation” of the airport.

The board was sensitive to the fact that First Nations had con-cerns with the airport lands, noting it was a pending issue to local Indian bands.

Joint council, steering committee appointments for Protocol agreement

Joint Council and Steering Committee recommendations were made for the recently signed Protocol Agreement between the regional district and local First Nations bands at the October 3 meeting of the regional board.

Chairman Pendergraft and Vice Chair Manfred Bauer, as well as a City of Penticton director will represent the joint committee, while CAO Bill Newell, Deputy Corporate Officer C. Malden and a third representative to be named later were named to the steering committee.

Director’s motionThe board approved a motion forwarded by Area “G” Director

Angelique Woods proposing the regional district send a letter to the Province supporting the licensing of All Terrain Vehicles.

Better communications requestedArea “H” Director Brad Hope, noting difficulties the Regional

District had obtaining information in the aftermath of the Coal-mont tailings spill, requested the board forward a letter to the provincial government asking it consider implementing Emergency Response Management System protocols within all of its provin-cial ministries. The board approved the motion.

Community Futures request funding Mary Ellen Heidt, executive director of Community Futures — Okanagan-Similkameen, led a delegation before the board report-ing on success of the Economic Gardening program and making an $80,000 request for continued funding. Her report was received as information and will be reviewed as part of budget delibera-tions.

Board briefsHomes in Rural Electoral Areas “B”,

“C”, and “G” will be receiving seasonal yard waste collection during the week of October 28 to November 1.

Communities receiving this collection include rural Oliver, rural Osoyoos, rural Keremeos, Cawston, Olalla and Hedley. Residents can place out an unlimited amount of properly packaged yard waste for pickup on their morning of their collec-tion day.

Yard waste means leaves, sticks, prun-ings, grass and branches under three inches (7.5 cm) diameter. Materials should be

placed in a reusable container, like a gar-bage can, or in kraft paper yard waste bags. Branches can be cut to three feet (1 m) lengths and bundled securely with string. Yard waste placed in plastic bags or containing other materials will not be col-lected.

Large volumes of yard waste, agricul-tural waste or culled fruit can be brought to any local landfill for composting.

No charges apply at any landfill for loads of yard waste under 500 kg (1,100 pounds). The final 2013 yard waste collection for all RDOS rural electoral area homes will be the last week of November.

The Kamloops Fire Cen-tre rescinded open burning in the Kamloops Fire Cen-tre’s jurisdictions, effective at noon on Tuesday, Octo-ber 15, due to a decreased risk of wildfires.

Burning of waste, slash, stubble or grass is now al-lowed in the South Okana-gan and Lower Similka-meen.

Fireworks and burning barrels can also be lit in areas not subject to local

bylaws.This rescinding of the

open fire prohibition applies to all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands, but does not apply within the boundaries of local govern-ments that have forest fire prevention bylaws and are serviced by fire departments.

Anyone contemplating lighting an open fire should first check with civic au-thorities to see if any local burning restrictions are in effect.

Incorporation costs remained high in the minds of many attending the meeting, as another member of the audience asked how citizens could make a decision on incorpo-ration without a good understanding of the costs involved.

Siddon continued to insist if doubts persisted into the beginning of the second stage of the study, the issue of incorpora-tion would cease at that point.

“If you want me to take the message back to Linda Larson tomorrow and say ‘forget it, they don’t want it, I think it’s unfair to a lot of people in this room who said they would like to see more of the in-formation before we come to that decision,”

Siddon added.The last member of the audience to

comment was a former town clerk from Ontario, who said that based on the in-formation he had so far, he did not favour incorporation.

“However, I think we would make a huge mistake if we didn’t do the two studies and got a chance to vote on both of them.

My opinion is, incorporation would cost us too much money as taxpayers, and it won’t reduce the provincial taxes, it’ll just increase the local taxes.

That’s my opinion. However, if we don’t do those two studies, and find out what type of government could be for us, and

what it might cost us, we won’t be making a logical decision for our children and grand-children.

Having been a clerk, I think it’s too ex-pensive, but I think we should look at it.”

Afterwards, Siddon said that he saw the meeting as “a demonstration of a demo-cratic debate in the community.”

“We have a number of issues to con-front,” Siddon said, adding that he thought that there would be an announcement from the province regarding the study soon, and hoped that any negative undercurrents in the community regarding the study wouldn’t taint the process.

Key documents, including a 58-point action plan meant to address shortcomings discovered during a local government’s safety audit, have � nally been made public.

The action plan was created by Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen staff after learning in May the organization did not meet the requirements to renew a Certi� -cate of Recognition that triggered $31,000 in savings on WorkSafeBC premiums over three years.

The COR program is voluntary and goes beyond minimum safety regulations established by B.C. laws.

RDOS administrators told elected of� cials about the audit results in August, and later released only copies of the audit report’s executive summary from which names of peripheral organizations, such as volunteer � re departments and recreation commissions, had been redacted. Newspapers were advised to � le freedom of informa-tion requests for the full report.

The executive summary cited the lack of a single safety management

system across all RDOS operations as the main reason for not renewing the certi� cate, and was the basis for articles in the Western News and the Keremeos Review.

Tom Siddon, the director for Okanagan Falls-Kaleden, told colleagues at a committee meeting Thursday the articles prompted calls from members of peripheral orga-nizations who complained they only learned of the audit results through the media.

“The two headlines were: ‘RDOS fails safety audit,’ and secondly, ‘RDOS of� cial blames voluntary groups for the shortcoming.’ I know that’s not what happened, but that’s the perception that a simple head-line can produce,” Siddon said.

The RDOS scored 55 per cent on the audit, but needed 80 per cent to achieve certi� cation.

Earlier this month, Siddon urged RDOS administrators to release the full report to set the record straight. The document and its accompany-ing action plan were � nally released Thursday.

The to-do list includes ensuring � rst-aid attendants write reports after treating workers, creating safe work procedures for all pieces of equipment, such as sweepers and mowers, and numerous suggestions relating to the functioning of safety committees.

Penticton Mayor Garry Litke,

also an RDOS director, noted it’s “a very ambitious action plan,” but “it obviously can’t happen without resources.”

Chief administrative of� cer Bill Newell said directors might need to consider hiring someone to help with implementation.

“Everyone’s struggling for re-sources. To ful� ll the requirement for record-keeping and statistics-keeping and meetings... is onerous,” he said.

“And while we strive to do that, in some of our completely volunteer or independent parts of our opera-tions, it’s not quite as high a priority or they don’t have quite the same capabilities of doing that.”

Newell also explained that al-though the RDOS was told by the same auditor in 2010 that it needed to establish a comprehensive safety system, it decided to skip that rec-ommendation.

“We didn’t want to impose our rules on really volunteer � re depart-ments and employees of recreation commissions that had other pri-orities, he said, before reiterating that the auditor placed blame with RDOS administrators, not the pe-ripheral departments.

“He’s saying, administratively we did not do our job imposing a single safety management system through-out the organization. We take that personally,” Newell said.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Try the following recipe for Dill Salmon Bake at dinner to build your chi. The salmon nourishes chi and blood. The wine is nicely warming. The potatoes strengthen the chi and the onions warm the body and coun-teract phlegm, dampness and stagnation. The dill benefits the digestion.

Dill Salmon Bake: 3 pounds potatoes 1 pound salmon 2 large onions 2 glasses white wine 2 ounces butter 4 teaspoons dill weed salt to taste pepper to tasteBoil the potatoes until about three-quarters cooked. Meanwhile slice the onions in rings and cook gently in a little butter for 10 minutes or until they start to soften. Cut the salmon into 1 inch chunks. Put all the ingredi-ents into a greased ovenproof dish in layers, onions, then potato, then salmon, then onions, and potato again. Sprinkle with the dill and salt as you build up the layers. Pour in the white wine and set a few knobs of butter on top. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper, cover and bake for 25-30 minutes at 400 degrees. Enjoy!

This chi building exercise that you may choose to practice can be done sitting or standing. Stand or sit with your spine long, tall and erect. Breathe fully and deeply all the way down to the lower lobes of your lungs. This gently pushes the belly out. Exhale as you gently pull your belly button in towards the spine. Allow each breath to be full and complete. Gently place the backs of your hands on your back between the bottom rib and the top of your hips. Breathe fully and deeply as you briskly yet gently rub this area with the backs of your hands until you feel warmth in your lower back. When you feel that you are complete place the palms of your hands onto your lower back and breathe. Visualize warmth moving through your body into each and every cell.

Keep warm, dress in layers and cover your Kidneys when going outside. Eat warm and nourishing foods.

RESVERATROL & GRAPESResveratrol, a substance found in the skins of grapes, was first reported over a decade ago to have positive effects on health. Research is still going on to determine its real effect on lowering blood pressure, cancer risk as well has helping maintain a healthy body. Recent work has combined resveratrol with soy, which resulted in positive effects on endometriosis, serious condition of the uterus.

ORANGES...You know that white stuff left on an orange after you peel it? It’s called the albedo and is sort of a second skin that is quite good nutritionally. It contains some vitamin C and soluble fibre that can help lower cholesterol. It’s OK to eat.

VACCINE FOR GLUTEN?Celiac disease is a condition in which the small intestine lining is damaged by a substance called gluten hampering the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. Gluten is found in wheat, rye and other grains. At present there is no cure and only a gluten-free diet controls the disease. However, there is hope. In Australia, they are working on a vaccine to fool the body into tolerating gluten. It’s still in the early stages of testing but looks promising.We make it part of our job to keep up to date on the latest news in the world of healthcare.
