� e Village of Nakusp is expe-riencing a critical water shortage and has taken steps to protect the Village by issuing a no lawn wa-tering order until further notice.

We have put out the watering restriction in order to ensure that we have enough water in our res-ervoir to provide � re protection.

sumption than before we had the wells. Our water usage has risen drastically over the past two years.

Councilor and Selkirk College Continuing Edu-cation Coordinator Ulli Mueller has championed a proposal on behalf of Nakusp to participate in the Communities In Bloom (CIB) program.

CIB is designed as a continuous community improvement program that provides a framework of criteria that are judged then assigned a rating from 1 to 5 blooms. The eight categories include: tidiness, environmental ac-tion, heritage conservation, urban forestry, landscape and floral displays. Com-munities can participate in provincial, national and international levels of com-petition. There is also a non-competitive category as well as a novice program

for communities to use as a jumping off point.

Mueller has spearhead-ed participation in the nov-ice program by forming a committee with School District 10 employee, Kath-leen Jones and NACFOR Project Manager, Frances Swan. Mueller then invit-ed CIB judges Rea Smith and Michelle Rule to tour Nakusp and begin the mentoring process. After a morning spent review-ing the village, Smith and Rule presented a workshop to the inceptive committee members at Selkirk Col-lege.

“It’s about livability” Smith clarifies, “and all those little things in your community that make this a place for people to live in or visit.”

The novice program is organized as an introduc-tion to CiB and involves

participating communi-ties choosing three of the eight criteria to develop then submit for judging. Mueller, in consultation with Swan, decided to fo-cus on environmental, tidi-ness and landscape criteria for next year’s judging.

There are three levels of competition that CIB is involved with; Provincial, National and International and are based on flagship programs in Britain, Eng-land and Ireland.

The process involves the formation of a local com-munity enhancement com-mittee who would bring interested volunteers and existing programs under its umbrella to create a Com-munity Profile. Naksup then had a year to focus on developing the com-munity to reflect three of the six themes that make up the criteria for judging.

Mueller along with Swan chose the three themes to focus on.

Smith and Rule encour-aged participation in the program claiming it as a source of ignition for com-munity pride and provides a chance to showcase heri-tage while encouraging friendly competition with neighboring communities.

Rule identified the next step for Nakusp would be the formation of a local community enhancement committee who would bring interested volunteers and existing programs under its umbrella to create a community profile.

The creation of a com-munity profile is a valu-able exercise in and of

itself that highlights Na-kusp’s assets and identifies areas of improvement in the context of competition.

The profile would be owned by the village and typically ends up in the hands of the Chamber of Commerce or in the mayor’s office to be used as a pro-motional reference for the community.

Taking a historical look at some familiar buildingsA diverse and wet

group of historical enthu-siasts and curious locals gathered together at the Nakusp Museum on the afternoon of July 19 to prepare for the advertised historical walking tour of Nakusp.

Museum attendant (and summer student), Jillian Koftinoff welcomed the group on behalf of the

Nakusp Museum and as-sumed her role as tour guide, leading the way to Broadway Street just as the morning downpour began to slack.

The tour visited three locations; Home Grown Market & Juice Bar, Mer-itxell Books and the Trea-sure Trove, conveniently located kitty corner to each other at the corner of 4th Ave and Broadway. At each stop Koftinoff shared an avalanche of histori-

cal facts regarding the buildings that house their current business, includ-ing detailed information on the variety of owners or tenants and the shift-ing village context dating back to the early 1920s.

This was the first tour of its kind organized through the local museum and was inspired by news of successful historical tours being conducted in Revelstoke. Nakusp Mu-seum chairperson, Sharon

Montgomery, directed Koftinoff to research lo-cal buildings and choose three as the subject of the proposed tour.

“I was really interested in the history of these three particular buildings and there was a lot of in-formation that I could ac-cess”, Koftinoff explained regarding her choices.

Koftinoff is a student of the University of Victoria and is enrolled in her final year of Gender Studies. “I

grew up here” she muses, “and I am still surprised at

how much there is to learn through the museum.”

Community

Clark Dennill has been making bows for over 25 years and has yet to meet a man who has not shot a bow and arrow at some point in his life.

“It’s primal” Dennill states, “there are those who would argue that the wood-en bow goes back over thir-ty thousand years. We live by the bow.”

Under the auspice of the Arrow Lakes Fine Art Art Aalk, Dennill has been in-vited to take up an artist in residence role at the Sel-kirk College for the dura-tion of July. He has set up shop in the front room of the college and welcomes visitors any time to stop in and check out his work and observe the process. Den-nill was also petitioned to showcase specimens of his bow and furniture work at a gala event hosted at Selkirk.

“I don’t do many shows, I used to show quite a bit when I was younger” Den-nill admits, “but I mostly teach and cra� now.”

Dennill began wood-working by cra� ing furni-

ture pieces, and didn’t make his � rst bows until his chil-dren were � ve and six.

“It was great” Dennill’s son Tyler exclaims, “I mean, what kid didn’t like to play around with bows and ar-rows?” A father’s gi� to his sons has since then become a family tradition of shoot-ing that continues to this day.

“For me shooting is more of a spiritual thing. It’s a practice for me, a discipline” Dennill explains, pointing out that he has shot every bow on display at the col-lege.

Working primarily with yew wood, Dennill’s me-ticulous process takes over 10 years from the harvest of a tree to the completion of the bow. Each bow is unique and carries its own tension characteristics.

“� ere is no � ner wood that yew for bow making on the plant” Dennill claims.

During the develop-ment of his own technique, Dennill had the pleasure of working with master bow maker, John Strunk, from Oregon. � e workshop lasted four days, at the end

of which Dennill took away what he could and branched o� in his own direction.

Dennill has also worked with and instructed bow makers internationally throughout his career and

intends to carry on the cen-turies old tradition.

“Each bow you make” Dennill shares, “you want to make another one be-cause you think you can make it even � ner.”

Editorial

As many of us already know, it o� en becomes a major challenge when facing expenses associated with undergoing specialized med-ical treatment outside one’s own home community.

Residents of Nakusp and area as with all other parts of this prov-ince, may be interested in learn-ing details of a travel assistance program (TAP) set up to help al-leviate what could be a heavy � -nancial load.

To be eligible for the program, applicants must be enrolled with Medical Services Plan (MSP).

An escort may be considered eligible although only when ac-companying a patient who is 18 years or under, or a patient who is incapable of travelling indepen-dently for medical reasons.

TAP operates as a corporate partnership between the Minis-try of Health and certain private transportation carriers such as airlines and bus services.

For further information on the medical travel assistance program, application criteria, access to the application forms, the � ling pro-cess and for the list of resources making the program possible for BC residents, call toll free 1-800-661-2668.

“I am looking forward to working with everyone” Bersky commented, “and its nice to be back living in B.C.”

BIKE PARKNate Lott and Yan Lebreque from

D.I.G. Trail Design Ltd in Rossland pre-sented council with plan details to build a BMX park in Nakusp. � e bike park concept has been developed in part-nership with the Nakusp Youth Centre (NYC) and is the result of two meetings where the needs of the biking commu-nity were discussed.

� e � rst meeting was held at the Youth Centre where the focus turned from de-veloping downhill trails to building a park in town. � e second meeting in-volved bike enthusiasts meeting with Lott and Labreque at the Nakusp skate park to bounce ideas around design,

concept and location. Lott and Lebreque then developed

a 3D proposal of the park and de-tailed a building schedule with a cost break down, which were distributed to council members.

Lott explained “the construction would take place in three phases as funding allows” and would include features for all levels of riders.

The park would begin with a series of tabletop structures then move on to developing short and long pump tracks. The finished product would require over 400 cubic yards of dirt material per phase and would cover an area approximately 200 feet by 120 feet.

The proposed location is the area north of the existing skateboard park; a spot that the group feels would en-courage family riding and promote tourism given its scenic setting.

Costs involved with construction were presented in terms of maximums that could be dramatically reduced by volunteer and in-kind donations. Lott and Lebreque have 10 years experience building parks and trails and generally work with a 1 to 3 ratio of grants to do-nations.

“We want this to be the community’s bike park” Lott stated, “in other parks

and trials we have built, the youth and residents take stewardship of the main-tenance and general upkeep”

Council expressed confusion that members of the youth group were not present for the presentation and re-quested that a request for council sup-port be made with members of the NYC in attendance.

Lott and Lebreque clarified that their intention was to “show council what is possible” and had plans al-ready in place to return with youth representatives for another presenta-tion. Given the time frame this proj-ect has a 2015 proposed start date.

NAKUSP HOTSPRINGS HILLCLIMB POSTPONED

Councilor Guy Duchaine informed council that the hillclimb scheduled for 2014 has been postponed.

“� ere were a number of little things that needed to be in place by July 1 that were not” Duchaine explained, “so the permit was not issued.”

The ministry of transportation is responsible for issuing permits for an event such as a hillclimb.

Duchaine assured council that the problem will not hinder the event, and with the extra time the group is looking into expanding the proposed

hillclimb by including a rally in May of next year.

CANADA DAYCouncilor Duchaine also reported on

the Chamber of Commerce’s review of the Canada Day celebrations.

“It was extremely successful and we had a lot of fun” Duchaine stated.

� e event exceeded participation expectations, which raised concerns about the delays for restroom use and the limited water, power and sewage to meet vender demands. � ere was also public disappointment that the Bun-nock competition was cancelled, as this was a popular event last year.

� e Canada Day organizers are look-ing into the possibility of purchasing additional sets of the game thus alle-viating dependence on Bonnie Hillis from Alberta. Hillis was in� uential in introducing the popular game to Na-kuspians, but took sick and was not able to attend the July 1 celebrations.

HOT SPRINGS ROAD REALIGNMENT PROPOSAL

Council was provided the opportuni-ty to review and comment on a pit and road realignment application that was submitted by Arrow Lakes Ready Mix (ALRM) to Front Counter BC.

Mega Sports Camp

Sports

Mega Fun

Saddleback Community Church pastor, Craig Savage, along with an arsenal of volunteers from the Christian Youth Group, Arrow Lake Alliance Church and Burton Full Gospel have success-fully completed their fourth Mega Sports Camp in Nakusp.

The camp was an opportunity for local youth to participate in a variety of sports including soccer and basketball while exploring health and wellness principles. A grant received from the Rec Commission allowed for the introduc-tion of cheerleading and baseball as new activi-ties which were well received by this year’s par-ticipants.

Savage describes the impetus for the camp stemmed from a church tradition of offering a

“vacational bible school” during the summer. Savage helped organize camps of this nature when he was a Youth Pastor in Vancouver, but when his family relocated to Nakusp five years ago the decision was made focus on “providing a summer activity for the whole community, not just the church community.”

Arrow Lakes School District generously al-lowed the group access to Nakusp Elementary School facilities for the duration of the sports camp, as well as use of the school fields and equipment. Local volunteers provided the man-power to run the daily activities and lead inspi-rational discussion with the participants. Savage also hired a summer student through the church whose principle responsibility was to assist with the organization and operation of the camp. This year’s student is Sara Willis, who is attending Summit Pacific College in Abbotsford.

ITP knocks season out of the park

Walk-off home run! Walk-off home run! There couldn’t have been a more ex-citing way to end the finals game which saw rivals In The Parkers (ITP) face off against last year champions, the Brew Jays.

Ryan Struck was the hero who cata-pulted his team to glory with his 7th in-ning blast that sent the ball over the fence

and into history. The match was a

back and forth con-test that found the veteran ITP team with an early deficit of 4 runs during the second inning. ITP managed to realign their game plan and caught up 4 runs at their next bat and went on to jostle for the lead.

The game was tied at 8 runs when Struck took up the bat and swaggered into the box with the out count at 2.

ITP needed a hit, but were not expect-ing the homerun per-formance that Struck delivered. The gath-ered crowd erupted with cheers as the ball took flight into the fading light of the day, then dropped de-cidedly on the far side of the chain link fence thus dethroning last years champions.

Struck, along with Zac Wethal were in-strumental in orga-nizing the Nakusp softball league, which hosted seven teams

this season. All of the magic generated by community com-petition that envel-oped the ball fields on Monday and Wednesday nights was the result of their tireless efforts mak-ing softball a reality for Nakusp.

Wethal would like to thank all of the vol-unteers and teams for the great season, and would like to remind everyone that ball isn’t over; the August Long Weekend Tour-nament is coming up.

Poetry comes alive at the Nakusp Library

Most of us who have achieved a western educa-tion will recall the almost cliché statement, trumpet-ed by some English teacher in our past, that “Shake-speare must be heard to be appreciated” or some vari-ation thereof. But there is always some truth in a cli-ché, and often, those who struggled with the confus-ing words on paper found clarity when text alighted into air by skilled actors and narrators.

Critics of poetry, the same who mutter statements like “there is the same number of people reading poetry as there is writing it” would do well to recall their English teacher’s lessons, and ven-ture an attendance to some future poetry reading so as to experience the magical animation of the printed word.

Poetry cannot live on the page; it lives through the intonations of speech and

the subtle gestures as the narrator slings words and turns phrases to construct moments that cannot be defined by the sum of its grammatical parts.

Such was the magic wo-ven on the evening of July 18 when poets of all disci-pline and style descended upon the Nakusp Library to participate in the (antici-pated) annual, Poetry Slam.

The evening’s MC, Bar-bara MacPherson, began with a welcome and a clari-fication that this event was different from the library’s other poetry appreciation night in that the selections presented “are all original works written and read by their author.

“The ensuing evening of poetry was an intimate ex-perience for all those pres-ent, as nervous first time readers shared glimpses of themselves alongside con-fident and/or, published veterans.

All of the tricks of the trade were on display, as each poet tickled the imagi-

nations of the audience with an arsenal of adjec-tives, juxtaposition, allit-eration, rhyme, meter and so on. Youth, in the spring of their writing selves pre-sented perspectives of life as through the lenses of a magnifying glass, extrapo-lating microcosms hiding in a single moment or specific feeling.

These selections were juxtaposed with the mature poets, who skillfully shared evocative interpretations of

a larger world including the expropriation of families along the Columbia river, reflections on the concept of hope, journeys to the flat lands of Grand Prairie and the breadth of Saskatche-wan heat, to name a few.

The span of poets pre-senting at the slam was an impressive spectrum from “17-70ish”, MacPherson teased, and contrary to the critics of poetry, not every-one present read a poem of their own.

“It’s really steep ter-rain and heavy tim-

Neither � re poses a threat to structures or communities.

Turner said not much other � re ac-tivity was reported

Motorcyclist killed east of New DenverA 50-year-old Al-

berta man is dead a� er a two-vehicle crash July 14 on Highway 31A about 10 kilometres east of New Denver.

� e BC Coroners Service has con-� rmed the identity of the man who died as Kelvin Kenneth Ho� man, aged 50, of Didsbury, Alberta, a

town in south-cen-tral Alberta about 80 kilometres north of Calgary.

Slocan Lake RCMP and West Kootenay Tra� c Services got the call at about 9:20 a.m.

Sgt. John Ferguson says a lone motor-cyclist encroached into an oncoming lane while in a curve

and struck a pick-up truck.

� e man was pro-nounced dead at the scene. � e family in the truck was not in-jured.

Ferguson said al-cohol is not a factor.

“� is is the time for the roads to be busy with all tra� c, especially motor-cycles and we would

caution all drivers to slow down and be at-tentive so they will arrive at their desti-nation safely,” Fergu-son said.

It’s the sixth fa-tal accident in West Kootenay this year. � e BC Coroners Service and RCMP Tra� c Services con-tinue to investigate this death.

Ida (Eda) CraftOctober 2 1917 - July 10, 2014

In Loving Memory of

Ida was born to Kate and Julius Boettger on 2 Oct 1917 in Findlater, Saskatchewan. Her family was forced by Depression circumstances to move to BC in February 1932. Th eir cold, ten-day journey began in a freight car which they shared with their livestock. Th ey left the train at

Castlegar and continued by barge, up the Arrow Lakes to Edgewood. From there they traveled by horse and sleigh to Needles where they lived for two years with extended family, saving money for a move to Fauquier in April of 1935. Th ere they built a log house, cleared the land, seeded hay and planted a garden and fruit trees. Ida often attributed her hardworking, modest and thrifty character to her no-frills pioneer’s upbringingIda married William (Bill) Craft February 15, 1937 and moved with him back to Needles. Th ey ran a coff ee shop -- the Ferry Café -- for several years in the early 1950s. Ida also ran the Post Offi ce, fi rst in Needles and later in Fauquier, where they moved in 1968 when Needles was fl ooded with the building of the Keenleyside Dam at Castlegar.Ida had a wide range of interests and talents. She was a gardener of vegetables and fl owers and preserved many a jar of fruit and veggies. She was a great cook, renowned for her doughnuts, cinnamon rolls, bread, hot-cross buns, hermit cookies and Yorkshire pudding. She quickly learned the art of cake decorating, and her art was displayed at many weddings in the area. She loved to fi sh, crochet and play cards, especially bridge, 500 and crib, and she was unforgiving of miscues by herself and, more pointedly, by others at the card table. Strong and active all her life, Ida played softball in her early years, a mean game of badminton, and was more-than-competent at bowling and golf. She loved more than anything to dance and was accomplished at foxtrot, waltz, or a lively two-step. Until very recently, she was known for her brisk daily walk and her light step on the dance fl oor. She was also a long-standing, loyal Toronto Blue Jays fan, convinced that it was only the collusion of the American teams that prevented the Blue Jays from going all the way! She had an adventurous side and travelled widely to England, New Zealand, Japan, Hawaii, Zambia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and, with her sister Tillie, across Canada-driving them both. Ida was an enthusiastic community member – an active member of the Royal Canadian Legion Auxiliary and the Women’s Institute for many years. She contributed to community-based celebrations such as Canada Day, Th anksgiving Day and Remembrance Day, and hosted many memorable Christmas celebrations.Ida was predeceased by her husband Bill, parents Julius and Kate, brothers Oscar and Gordon, and sisters Alice, Tillie and Winnie. She is survived by daughter Dorothy (Roy) Dixon, of Kamloops, sons, Ed (Marian) of Castlegar and Don (Kate) of Kamloops, nine grandchildren, thirteen great-grandchildren, two great-great-grandchildren, brother Robert (Joan) Boettger and many nieces and nephews.

She was a warm and supportive mother, mother-in-law and Nan, and will be deeply missed.
