It’s the same every weekend. Many residents of Hope get in their vehicles and head out of town to go shopping. It’s a consumer drain that most busi-ness owners would like to see plugged.

Rather than watch dollars head to other communities, Lonni Warren de-cided to take action.

Warren is the owner of Treehouse Health Foods, and she put together a discount program for her custom-ers. Anyone who makes a purchase from her store on Saturdays between noon and 2 p.m., gets a 20 per cent discount.

“It gives people a reason to stay in town and shop on Saturday,” said Warren.

But that’s just one ad-vantage. It also allows Warren to give her regular customers a deal, without hurting her regular week day business.

“It hasn’t aff ected our other days at all,” she said.

And she is hoping oth-er downtown stores will jump on board with her idea.

“I’m trying to set a precedent.”She started the program in Janu-

ary and her customers are telling her that other businesses should do the same thing.

“I want others to join in, if not this then something of their own. Anything to keep busi-ness in town.

She said the discount has in-creased her customer loyalty.

Others have taken notice.It’s a good idea,” said Victor

Smith, president of the Hope Chamber of Commerce. “Th at’s a slow time for businesses.”

Smith said the chamber is working on several initiatives to help local business owners.

“Sometime in the fall or winter weare going to host three or four semi-nars on how to rethink business strate-gies,” he said.

But if you think the problem is justHope-related, Smith says think again.

“It’s everywhere. It’s a global thing.Some businesses are just struggling.”

Glen Ogren runs the Hope BrewingCo. and is a director of the chamber.He said the chamber should be readyto unveil a “shop local” campaign inJuly.

“I’d like to see a big kick-off cam-paign, to really spread the word,” saidOgren.

Competition is not about bodybuilding

‘It’s a test of strength’Kevin MillsBlack Press

As part of the Canada Day celebrations, the inaugural Hope B.C. Strongman Competi-tion is set to take place. Th e one-day event will attract participants from across the province to compete in six tests of strength.

Karen and Joe Scalise, owners of Muscleworks Gym, are responsible for bringing the event to town.

“We were trying to think of what we could do, diff erently, that would work with the car show,” said Karen.

Aft er a few ideas were dismissed, the notion of “muscles and muscle cars” seemed a perfect fi t.

Th e local couple got in contact with Robin Wright, the founder and director of the B.C. Extreme Athletics Asso-ciation (BCEAA) who organized the event.

Th e Hope competition is now a BC Strongman qualifi er with the top three fi nishers earning a rank placing in the B.C.’s Strongest Man Compe-tition set for mid-Au-gust in Kamloops.

Because it’s a qualifi er, Hope’s event is attract-ing plenty of attention.

“So far there is about 15 0r 20 entrants,’ said Karen.

Th ere are three sepa-rate categories in strong-man, heavy weight, light

weight and women’s.All competitors will

take part in the car dead lift , the truck pull, tire fl ip, log press, atlas stones and the Louise Cyr press.

“Th ere will be lots of great event for the pub-lic to watch and it’s all free,” said Karen.

Th e competition takes place on July 1, beginning at 10 a.m. in

Downtown Hope (on Wallace Street between third and fourth).

According to Joe, the event should features some impressive feats.

“Th is is not a body building event, its a test of strength ... it’s not a hobby for these guys, they train all year,” he said.

Support for the idea has been great said Kar-

en.“We have 30 sponsors

on board ... Th is town has really opened itsdoors for this event.

“I think we just need-ed something diff erent.”

If you wish to enterthe competition, you can register online at www.BCEAA.org. Th ecost to compete is $25but the public can watchfor free.

Local FarmersSupport 10% HST

Photo credit: Grant Ullyot

Long-time Chilliwack farmer and current Agassiz resident Alex Charles says the HST helps lower costs for farmers who put food on the table of Fraser Valley residents.

“I will be voting “No” to bringing back the 12% GST/PST, because a 10% HST will help lower costs.

“Voting “Yes” would mean higher costs to farmers and families because of the combined 12% GST/PST.”

Open house collects ideas as well as criticisms

Gauging the public’s preferencesKevin MillsBlack Press

Hope residents had the opportunity to pro-vide input into proposed changes to the district’s zoning bylaw.

A public open house was held last Th urs-day, at the recreation centre, to collect ideas, thoughts and criticism. Story boards, explaining possible changes, were displayed and question-naires handed out to all who attended.

“We want to anticipate future needs, we’re try-ing to be as proactive as possible,” said Graham Farstad of the Arling-ton Group, the company hired by the district to collect and analyze all the input received.

He said the questions were designed to address most of the zoning issues.

Hope’s existing Zoning bylaw dates back to 1996 and while several amend-ments have been made since then, major changes may be needed as the Dis-trict moves forward.

Issues include sec-

ondary suites and coach houses, specifi c zoning for townhouses, parking standards and even the implementation of green initiatives.

“Th e questionnaire also has a place for com-ments in case there is an issue we haven’t covered,” said Farstad.

Using secondary suites

as an example, Farstad said the district is attempt-ing to gauge the public’s preferences.

“A lot of municipalities are more accommodating to secondary suites now. Th ey are used as mort-gage helpers and provide low cost rentals.”

But he wonders how Hope residents feel about

them. Anyone who did not attend the open house can still provide input. Farstad said the story-boards and the question-naire are online at www.hope.ca and people are encouraged to fi ll them out. Data will be collected until the end of June.

Once all the informa-tion has been gathered,

another public open house will be held in the fall, de-tailing the responses and making recommenda-tions for changes.

For more information on the zoning bylaw re-write, or if you need help accessing the question-naire, call Jaz Gill at the district at 604-869-5671 ext. 307.

News

Hope residents attended the District’s open house on proposed changes to the zoning bylaw on Thursday afternoon. The event asked people to examine the issues and give direction on what changes are impor-tant to the community. A second meeting will be held in the fall.


Cut cables cut out televisionsKevin MillsBlack Press

It was bad enough for some Canucks fans to deal with the squad los-ing game seven of the Stanley Cup fi nals on Wednesday night.

But it was even worse for fans in Hope, who had their television screens go blank in the

second period.Shaw Cable subscrib-

ers suff ered a loss of ser-vice at about 7 p.m. that night as vandals struck.

“We had about 150 metres of cable stolen,” explained Lou Melo, Shaw’s regional man-ager for Central B.C.

Th at interrupted ser-vice to about 1,500 cus-tomers in Hope.

Melo believes the thieves were attempt-ing to steal copper wire, however they stole fi bre cable instead.

He said the theft oc-curred in a remote area, just off Highway 1, about two and a half kilometres west of Pe-

ters Road.“It was out in the

bush ... it took us until 9 p.m. just to locate it,” he said.

Service was not re-turned until 6:40 a.m. the next day.

“Our call centre just lit up,” said Melo, explain-

ing that irate hockey fans were trying to see the end of the game.

Th e cable theft had a double whammy, as any subscriber who also had Shaw Internet service, couldn’t check the score on their computers ei-ther.

OUR PHARMACISTS DISPENSE INFORMATION AS WELL AS MEDICATION

Keeping a list of your current medications with you is a great idea. If

you are alone and have a medical incident and are unable to speak, this list will help emergency personnel. One of the rst things they want to know is what medications you are on. Longevity in Japan is one of the highest in the world. Perhaps the reason for this is found on a tem-ple in Japan on how to live a long, healthy life: Economy of meat, salt, sugar, food in general, trouble, an-ger, talk, clothing, car-riding and material desires. It also says: Gen-erosity with vegetables, vinegar,

fruit, chewing, sleep, laughter, ac-tivity, bathing, walking and giving. Much truth here.Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin which means it is not stored in the body. When you take a dose, your body grabs what it needs then the rest is excreted in the urine. How much do you need daily? About 200mg. Above that, it ends up in the toilet. You can get your daily needs of vitamin C from 2 oranges. Actually, your body can get along quite well with 75mg daily....that’s one orange. Having trouble sleeping is a common problem. There are prod-

ucts available without prescription that may help. They mostly contain an antihis-tamine sometimes combined with a pain-reliever but are for short-term use only. Our pharmacists can advise you about these sleep-aid prod-ucts. We are great believers in the idea that “before you take it, talk about it”. We can help.

Businesses have to ‘wow’ customers

News

He’s seen a lot of poten-tial customers take their business to Chilliwack and other cities. And

while he doesn’t think its wrong to shop in other communities, for some items, “people should see what we have to off er here fi rst.”

It’s been a tough year, weather-wise, and Ogren said the wet spring has not helped local companies.

“Th is is a place where people go to camp, we haven’t seen much of that

so far this year.”As for Lonni Warren’s

initiative, Ogren said he’s all for it.

“Anything that gets people to buy locally will help.”

Wes Bergmann, owner of the Blue Moose Coff ee-house, said you can’t guilt people into it, you have to make them want to shop here.

“What we are (Hope) is a pit stop. And we need to be the best pit stop in the world,” said Bergmann.

He said businesses have to be ready to “wow” cus-tomers, when they come in. For Bergmann, service is the key.

“Not to be over critical, but this is just common business sense.”

He said there is a lack of

consistency, adding somebusinesses don’t open onsome Saturdays, or openlater than store hours state.

“We need visitors, peo-ple from Vancouver, say-ing the service in Hope is great.”

“I’m not going to shophere because of guilt, I’llshop because of service,”he said.

With digital cameras on the market now running at 12 megapixels and higher, the storage of those images is becoming an ever-increasing problem. Preserving them is even more problematic. You have to find a stable device to put them on. For the average photographer the safest place to keep them would be a compact solid-state device. At one time the 700 MB CD was the ideal media to store images. But as image file sizes have increased the CD has become too small, so some have turned to the 4.7 GB DVD. Now that’s too small. You can get an external Hard Drive, which is fine except they have moving parts and anything in a computer that moves will in time fail. Solid state devices are the best bet for now. If you are a professional, a solid-state drive is probably the best way to go. If you really like or treasure your pictures print them.

We’ll help you preserve your memories.

Weather hampers huntKevin MillsBlack Press

It was wet and it was chilly, but most impor-tantly it was free.

Th e inaugural Trash For Treasure event took place on a rainy Satur-day in Hope as residents put unwanted items on the street for “treasure hunters” to take as they pleased.

Organized by the lo-cal chamber of com-merce, the day-long program didn’t attract

as many participants as expected, but it is still being called a success.

“Th e weather was re-ally bad, it hampered us,” said Victor Smith, president of the Hope Chamber.

“I saw some really nice items change hands though,” he added.

Th ose who did par-ticipate saw items disap-pear quickly.

“I put a bunch of items out on the street and in eight minutes, it was all gone. Th ey even took

my sign,” said Smith.Items which were

not taken, had to be brought back in by the homeowner.

“We didn’t want peo-ple to just leave it out there.”

Smith said visitors from as far as Abbots-ford and Chilliwack drove out to check the free items.

“We will defi nitely do it again.”

Hope residents left piles of unwanted items in front of their homes for treasure hunters to take away.

Let’s assume that when everyone in B.C. gets to be fi nance minister for a day, a majority choose to throw a $3-billion chair through the offi ce window to show how mad they are about the harmonized sales tax.

Th e cleanup will take two years, but fi rst there will be a provincial election to decide who holds the broom and dustpan. And the choices are becoming clear.

You have a new B.C. Liberal leader who has tacked to the centre on the minimum wage and business taxes in an eff ort to seek forgiveness for the high-handed administration that lost the public’s trust.

And you have two opposition parties that are entirely reactionary in their approach to today’s fast-changing world.

Th ere isn’t much to say at this point about the B.C. Conservatives under John Cummins.

Th ey are against modern treaty settlements, the carbon tax and (I think) the HST. Th ey stand for lower taxes, but so far that doesn’t include a reduced sales tax rate.

Th e rest of their platform is platitudes, with enough of a whiff of protest to pave a path for an NDP government.

And the NDP manages to make the B.C. Conservatives look modern.

In January I described how the B.C. NDP constitution still formally endorses the government taking over major industries, and explicitly rejects all for-profi t activity.

I won’t re-quote the convoluted Marxist language, which boils down to ‘state good, competition bad.’

A reader provides a real-time example of how this principle would apply to a problem confronting the B.C. government. To prevent

another riot in Vancouver, the government should supervise an orderly redistribution of Stanley Cups.

Th is core principle of socialism, an 80-year-old relic, was debated at the national party’s convention

in Vancouver on the weekend. Socialist dead-enders rallied to keep it alive, rejecting vague new wording that favours “social democratic principles” to ensure “economic and social equality.”

Th is isn’t just an academic discussion for party conventions. One of the last acts of the NDP opposition in the

B.C. legislature this spring was to propose a legislated end to poverty.

According to their bill, B.C. should create a Ministry of Poverty Reduction with annual goals for imposing the redistribution of wealth.

Th e “Poverty Reduction Act” contains a weasel-worded defi nition of poverty: insuffi cient money to “acquire and maintain economic self-reliance” and “facilitate integration into and participation in society.”

Does this mean a guaranteed annual income? Can people achieve “economic self-reliance” by collecting welfare? Does anyone actually believe this stuff ?

If you believe unionized state monopolies are the best business model, I guess so.

I won’t elaborate on the fringe parties such as Chris Delaney’s B.C. First, a splinter from the B.C. Conservative stump.

Th e Green Party is the only one other than the B.C. Liberals that

looks to the future. Perhaps too far in the future. Th e Greens want a dramatically increased carbon tax and a transition to a “steady state” economy that doesn’t try to produce and consume more. Try eliminating poverty with that program.

I frequently get letters from people who accuse me of parroting the government’s line on issues such as the HST and poverty. If there are political alternatives out there that make actual sense in today’s world, I’d love to hear about them. Until then, these are the choices.

Any day now, NDP leader Adrian Dix might start to unveil the positive alternative he has promised for an election that may come this fall. Th at will be something to examine closely.

Right now, he’s urging you to throw that chair.

A hard look at your choices

Ugliness onlineOffi cially, the Vancouver police department says they had last

Wednesday's Stanley Cup under control by 11:45 p.m. But the thuggery that smashed and burned its way through the city's downtown continues; it's moved online.

Th ere's no doubt the Internet played a role in the mayhem.Th ere have been reports of Twitter postings and text messages being

exchanged early Wednesday aft ernoon, long before the puck dropped to begin game seven of the Stanley Cup fi nal, that trouble was brewing. And when it did get started, it seemed everyone wanted to capture a moment to post on their blog or Facebook page; young people posed and smiled in front of burning cars and smashed storefronts for their friends holding aloft a cell phone camera.

In the hours and days aft er order was restored, the fallout from the riot moved into the virtual world.

Some of it has been good; volunteers were organized via social media for a morning-aft er clean up, individual acts of heroism were highlighted and lauded, an international sensation was created when a photo of a young couple exchanging a kiss amidst the mayhem went viral.

But much has been as hateful as the riot itself. Th e very same mob mentality that rampaged through Vancouver's streets has now infected its online aft erlife. Some people who've had their photos posted on websites seeking to identify the riot's troublemakers have been harassed, their families threatened.

Th ere's no doubt the people who participated in the violence and mayhem should be held accountable. Many of them are now learning valuable lessons about the consequences of their behaviour that night and the fragility of online anonymity. But virtual vigilantism only perpetuates the ugliness that fueled the riot, and further blackens the city's already charred reputation.

Leave it to police and legal authorities to investigate what happened that night and prosecute who was responsible.

As described to me, the call will begin with an introduction and then a claim that either Microsoft , or the customers Internet service provider has contacted their company to ad-dress an issue which apparently lies within your computer.

Th ey ask for permission to connect to your computer to solve the prob-

lem and will generally connect with-out asking for payment.

If you agree, the company proceeds to plant soft ware on your computer which it uses to seemingly convince you that there is a problem at which time they off er to fi x for a fee.

Th is is entirely a scam and if you re-ceive this type of call you should hang up immediately.

Microsoft , Telus and Shaw are not in the business of monitoring com-puters for signs of trouble beyond

knowing if a system is using excessive bandwidth.

Both Telus and Shaw will contact a customer by email to inform them that their computer is suspected of be-ing infected but do not off er to fi x the issue and will generally threaten to cut off your service if you do not have the problem resolved.

If you suspect that you have a prob-lem aft er receiving this type of call you should immediately disconnect from the Internet and run a virus scan

on your system.If you have allowed these people on

your system and you suspect you have more problems than before, do not call them back.

Th e problem now lies in the soft -ware they left behind and is part of the scam to take more money from you.

Th e best advice at this point is to contact a trusted, qualifi ed technician to resolve the problems.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED:

Plugplugplug

I’m sure that there was not a thinking per-son who didn’t watch in horror as a gang rioted and disgraced the repu-tation of our beautiful Vancouver.

However, we in Hope also have our share of vandal’s and surely these cretins should be placed in the same category.

On the evening of the fi nal hockey game, many of the citizens of Hope were denied the right to watch their fa-vorite team, because a major cable had been cut to steal the copper

content.In addition to this act

of destruction – we have another vandal who has returned. “Wheat” is

back with a vengeance and a spray can!

What a negative im-pression we in Hope are displaying to our much

appreciated and neces-sary tourists who boost our economy.

Name withheldby request

Vandalism happens everywhere

Fans of boilermakers and beer-backs may have noticed a big change in the way hooch is currently served in Vancouver bars and pubs. On one hand, the B.C. Liquor Control and Licens-ing Branch (LCLB) is suppose to regulate: liquor service in bars and restaurants. However, any cop will tell you that in too many public establishments, over-serv-ing is a problem.

Policy wonks at the LCLB, which hold the monopoly inter-est on liquor regulation and dis-tribution, had created a distinct de facto standard: Serve it!

Before the infamous riots, one of my daughters who works in a bar in Vancouver told me there doesn’t seem to be strict enforce-ment at the best of times. In many cases, the whole thing seems to rest on a kind of token gesture, or a hypothesis of availability.

Regardless of the rioting, there needs to be a crackdown on exces-sive drinking and over-serving, with a stern message for licensees

– “think before you serve”.Th e province should be deter-

mined to make a positive impact on alcohol-related violence and needs to get tough with anyone selling alcohol to drunks.

Th ere is an undeniable link be-tween drinking too much and the issues of violence and anti-social behaviour in our communities.

Licence holders and staff have a signifi cant role to play in making sure that they act responsibly and don’t supply alcohol to people who have clearly had too much.

In my day as a cop, my offi -cers were instructed to play their part by conducting regular high-profi le visits to off er reassurance to the public and to make sure licensees are acting within the guidelines.

However, the onus is on them to take personal responsibility and be aware of the implications of selling drink to people when it is not appropriate.

Under licensing, it is an of-fence to serve alcohol to drunken

persons. When someone has had enough to drink, licensees and their staff have a responsibility to withhold the service of more alcohol.

Th is applies as much to an off -sales setting as it does to the sale of alcohol in pubs and clubs.

We need a robust approach from police, if licence holders and their staff are not adhering to the law they will be reported with the intention of having the licence for the premises suspended.

Th e message is simple: “If they have had enough they have had enough.” Th ere should be NO gray area.

Th e LCLB will continue to ap-ply itself primarily to issues of actual distribution, regardless of the need for changes. We, as residents, parents and taxpay-ers, need to be concerned with over-service and service to mi-nors, and realize that some things never change unless we force the issue.

William Perry

Most people intuitive-ly understand that salm-on can only swim up a river until they reach an impassable barrier like a steep waterfall. Most people also have come to know that run-of-river hydro projects are built above natural salmon barriers like the

aforementioned steep, impassable waterfalls.

Why, then, do some people continue to claim that run-of-river projects harm salmon when salmon and run-of-river projects don’t even come into close contact?

Donald Leung

Many are concerned about having to payback the 1.6 billion dollars should we vote “YES” to extin-guish the HST.

So far the Liberals have only taken the .6 billion part the of the bribe from the Harper government.

I ask why should we, the citizens of B.C. be re-quired to pay back money given to us for instituting a tax that we did not want, did not ask for and had imposed upon us without proper debate.

We as Canadians, through the Harper govern-ment already own that money. Should we as Brit-ish Columbians have to pay it again? Th e Liberals made a huge mistake with the HST and must bear the responsibility for their actions.

I feel that it is not up to the citizens of British Co-lumbia to pay for the Liberal mistakes.

Online watchers vow to help punish those responsibleFans aim to ID rioters

News

Jeff NagelBlack Press

Th e hunt is on to identify the perpetrators of the orgy of de-struction and looting in down-town Vancouver in the wake of the Canucks Stanley Cup loss.

Vancouverites quickly banded together on social media, vow-ing to out the off enders, pooling photos and video captured during Wednesday night’s riot.

Many of those responsible made no attempt to hide their fac-es, sometimes mugging for photos that were widely shared online.

Th ey show young men over-turning vehicles, removing mer-chandise and stuffi ng a rag into the gas tank of a police car.

Th e site identifyrioters.com al-lows users to browse photos and identify rioters and looters by their Facebook name. Photos and names are sent to the Vancouver Police Department once multiple users have made a positive ID.

Also being used is the Vancou-ver 2011 Riot Criminals List on Tumblr at http://vancityriotcrimi-nals.tumblr.com.

Multiple Facebook pages also urge followers to identify perpe-trators from photos shared there.

“Identify them, charge them, fi ne them and make every one of them do 1,000 hours of commu-nity service,” Brian White said on Facebook, refl ecting the feelings of many online.

More than 130 people were treated for tear gas or pepper spray exposure and mostly minor injuries.

Rioters smashed windows and looted stores, including Th e Bay and London Drugs.

“Where were your stupid kids, friends and family last night when they walked out the door carry-ing weapons and booze?” Noella Lau demanded on Facebook. “ID

them and own up.”Jane Lushington Daly added:

“Th ese cowardly morons should have every last dime drained fromtheir personal bank accounts topay for the damage.”

SFU communications profes-sor Peter Chow-White said peoplefl ocked to social media to express their disgust and embarrassmentand to document the violence.

A huge volume of video and photos captured by the thousandsof smart phone users on the streets will be coupled with surveillance video at stores.

Police were also documenting the actions of individuals as wellas reaching out over Twitter to ask people for photos.

If you recognize any of the people who caused the Stanley Cup riotin Vancouver last week, police want you to help identify them.

Keep your car running smoothly, longerDrivers looking to

lengthen their vehicle’s lifespan can employ pre-ventive maintenance that should keep a car run-ning strong for years to come.

Air Filter:When examining the

vehicle’s air fi lter (check the vehicle manual for location), look for dirt or dust buildup. If the fi lter is fi lthy, simply replace it.

Auto parts stores sell air fi lters, and most drivers shouldn’t have trouble re-placing a fi lter by them-selves.

Belts and Hoses:Issues with belts or

hoses are oft en recog-nizable to the naked eye, regardless of a driver’s automotive skill. A hose in poor condition can appear bulging or brit-tle, and should not feel too soft or too hard. If a hose exhibits any of these symptoms, replace it. A belt that’s worn or frayed should also be replaced.

Brake Fluid:One of the more ex-

pensive repair jobs on a vehicle is to replace the brakes. Brakes will need to be replaced over the course of a vehicle’s lifespan, but drivers should routinely check the vehicle’s brake fl uid. Without suffi cient brake fl uid, the brakes’ lifespan

decreases dramatically. Checking the brake fl uid is easy, simply look in the owner’s manual to fi nd brake fl uid reservoir and remove the lid (some ve-hicles might require the lid be unscrewed).

If the fl uid is below the line of demarcation, add fl uid up to that line. But be careful not to overfi ll. Check the brake fl uid levels on a monthly basis.

Motor Oil:Oil change guidelines

have changed dramati-cally thanks to better cars and more reliable mo-tor oils. But it still helps to check motor oil levels aft er every fi ll up. If mo-tor oil levels are low, add more oil. If oil is signifi -

cantly low aft er each fi llup, consult a mechanicjust to be safe.

Exhaust:Once a year, be it at a

routine tune-up or repairwork, ask your mechanicto check the vehicle’semissions. In addition,inspect the muffl er and exhaust pipe for holes,particularly aft er winter, when debris from snow trucks may do damage.

Power Steering:Power steering fl uid

should be inspected on a monthly basis. Check-ing power steering is the same as checking the oil, but it helps to also inspectthe pump for any leaks.

Tires:Keeping tires properly

infl ated pays numerousdividends. Properly in-fl ated tires make it easier for the engine to operate,lowering fuel costs whilealso decreasing wear and tear on the engine.

Keeping a close eye on your vehicle can help you avoid big bills. A little pre-ventative maintenance can go a long way to increasing your car’s lifespan.

SUMMER CAR CAR

Items you Shouldn’t Have in Your Car

Think about it--does it make sense to buy a milk chocolate candy bar and leave it in your car in the heat?• Milk or any dairy• Anything packaged

under pressure, like hair spray or soda pop.

• Tapes, CDs, or DVDs.• Sunscreen in a bottle. • Crayons, candy, gum,

lipstick.• Credit cards or other

cards with magnetic strips on plastic.

• Cleaning solutions with alcohol or ammonia.

• Anything that didn’t have a decent smell before it reached 115 isn’t going to smell any better after it’s been left exposed in direct sunlight all day.

• After shopping, check your trunk carefully to make sure nothing has fallen. You really don’t want to find any food item a week later.

Keep your cool during the summerIt is a common sight.A car is stranded on

the side of the road with the hood open and smoke billowing out as an exasperated driver looks on shaking his or her head.

An overheated engine can render a car useless in a matter of minutes.

A vehicle is propelled by an engine that ignites gasoline and causes controlled explosions within. An engine can produce quite a lot of heat.

Compound this with external temperatures and an overheated en-gine may occur. Other mechanical factors can also cause an engine to overheat. Th ese include a faulty thermostat to regulate coolant supply to the engine and even

an inoperable radiator fan.

Overheating can cause a lot of damage to a car. It may damage and burn holes in the parts. Rings, pistons or rod bearings may become impaired, or one can blow a head gasket.

Coolant is designed to protect an engine to a point, but it can also become compromised under high heat. Boil-ing coolant may cause the radiator and hoses to burst.

Th e best way to avoid engine and vehicle trou-ble due to overheating is to prevent an engine from becoming over-heated in the fi rst place. Here are strategies to employ.

1. Ensure that coolant levels are maintained

and there are no leaks that would cause cool-ant to drip out. Be sure

the right coolant is be-ing used for the particu-lar vehicle.

2. Dirty, inadequate motor oil cannot dissi-pate heat as well as clean

oil. Check the oil level and viscosity. Change the oil before a long trip or if it looks past its prime.

3. Confi rm radiator hoses are in good work-ing order and do not look worn out.

4. Have a mechanic check that a radiator fan is working and that there is adequate air fl ow through the radia-tor.

5. Be aware of engine temperature by watch-ing the gauge on the dashboard.

If an engine seems like it’s about to overheat, here are some steps to take.

– Slow down, and pull into the right lane. Turn on the heat in the car and open the windows. Th is may draw heat out of

the engine block, while maintaining a slow pace can continue to draw airover the engine.

– Pull over and open the hood to allow the engine to cool.

– Top off the radiator with coolant. Water canalso work in a pinch.

– Take frequentbreaks during long roadtrips to allow the engine to cool down for at least15 minutes.

– Be sure to clear theradiator from obstruc-tions, including leavesor insects that may have collected.

Men and women with-out auto maintenanceexperience should not touch anything underthe hood. Consult witha mechanic to deter-mine engine overheat-ing causes.

Many motorists get caught feeling the heat in the summer months. If you are planning to go on a long drive, make sure your vehicle can handle the stress. Check your fluid levels including oil, coolant and brake and steering fluids.

It’s not unusual to see motorists stranded due to overheating

“SLOW DOWN, MOVE OVER”It’s the law - vehicles must slow down to 70km/h on highways

posted at 80km/h and higher and to 40km/h in all other speed zones when passing emergency vehicles.

Change lanes if safe to do so.

Bear season has arrived and by that we mean BEARS are out and about looking to fatten up from a long winter of hibernation.The District of Hope has received numerous reports of bear/human encounters in recent weeks. Attracting bears are bird feeders, garbage placed out in plastic bags for disposal and fruit trees, which will also be an attraction soon.Deterring bears from entering your property begins with you and everyone else within the community. We are all responsible for the increase in bear/human conflict.The District of Hope reminds residents to:• Dispose of garbage in approved garbage cans and,• Don’t put your garbage out in plastic bags• Only put out your garbage for pickup on the morning of pickup, not the night before• Keep your garbage cans in a secure location (garage) with a sealed lid to prevent odors from escaping. • Reassess the need to have bird feeders on your property?All residents and businesses are encouraged to become BEAR AWARE and do your part. By working together and educating children, grandchildren and any new residents to our community.

For More Information ContactMaurice Wutzke, Director of Operations: 604-869-2333

REMINDER TO BE BEAR AWARE!

Group will performin historic church

Hexaphone in concert

Hexuberance Hexaphone, Victoria’s six-member a capella vocal ensemble, is coming to Hope on July 1st at 7 p.m.

“Th is group is thought of as Canada’s only profes-sional vocal sextet and they were chosen to premiere BC 150 Project: Five Songs for British Columbia,” said Darla Dickinson, supervisor of Christ Church Angli-can & National Historic Site.

“Rather fi tting I think – seeing as we will be celebrat-ing our 150th anniversary ourselves this year.”

Built in 1861, Hope’s Christ Church is the oldest church on B.C.’s mainland.

Hexaphone is a six member group from Victoria; they are regularly invited to perform at arts events, including the Victoria Symphony’s New Currents Fes-tival, the Voice Festival, and the New Music In New Places concert series sponsored by the Canadian Mu-sic Centre.

In 2008, Hexaphone was chosen and commissioned by the Canadian Music Centre to celebrate BC’s 150th anniversary.

Th e concert is the fi rst stop of Hexaphone’s ‘Hexu-berance’ series. Th e concert will be at Christ Church National Historic Site, located at 681 Fraser Avenue, at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

“Th is is a great opportunity and we are so excited to have Hexaphone visiting us during our 150th anni-versary,” said Dickinson. “It is also good timing as the church will still be decorated for the Flower Festival, which runs from June 25-July 1.

Th e theme of this year’s Flower Festival was inspired in part by the 150th anniversary and the natural beauty of Hope – which made early townspeople convinced that Hope would be a major transportation hub and provided motivation to complete the church for future prosperity.”

“Guests can enjoy tea, refreshments and guided tours through our decorated heritage church at 1 p.m. or 3 p.m.,” said Joan Sjovold, event organizer. Th e day will also feature displays and sales by local art vendors from 1-4 p.m.

“Christ Church completed a large renovation and exhibit creation projects this past winter; through this process we discovered remarkable quotes in letters and diary entries about the wonder and beauty of Hope’s location. It is there entries that formed the inspiration for the fl ower displays,” says Sjovold.

Th e renovation project was funded in part through the National Historic Sites Cost Sharing Program.

Tickets for Hexaphone are available at Romanos, Pages Book Store and the Hope Visitor Information Centre. Tickets for both the Flower Festival and Hexa-phone are available at Hope Pharmasave. For more information call 604 869 5402.

Riding for schoolBOXKevin MillsBlack Press

A small crew of cyclists came through Hope on Friday aft ernoon, led by Ilan Levy, who is on a cross-Canada journey.

Levy will cycle a total of 8,249 kilometres as he makes his way from B.C. to Newfoundland.

He is riding to raise awareness of a small, Ca-nadian non-profi t organi-zation called SchoolBOX.

“It started in 2006 and currently builds schools and creates education packages for kids in Cen-tral America,” Levy told Th e Standard.

Education packages are simply school supplies, pencils pens, note pads and other items that many potential students can’t af-ford.

Levy is trying to raise $100,000 on his journey, which began on June 7 and should come to an end on Aug. 26.

“We average about 130 kilometres a day,” he said.

Th e money he raises will go towards creating eight classrooms and pro-

ducing 8,000 education packages.

“I had already been thinking of doing this, in-

dependently, as a personal experience,’ said the avid cyclist.

But when he heard

about the work being done by SchoolBOX, it seemed to be a natural fi t to combine his ambition

to cycle with his desire to help.

“I realized it would mean so much more if I did it for a cause.”

While only a few days into his long tip, Levy said the response so far has been great.

“Th e reaction has been totally positive. People are cheering me on, some are handing me $10 bills, other cheques.”

Originally from Israel, but now living in Ontario, Levy said some people in Canada don’t realize what a struggle an education can be for some children.

“It’s hard for us to imagine, but in Nicaragua many families live on less than a dollar a day and more than 51 per cent of children don’t fi nish grade fi ve.”

“For these kids, the simple gift of a notebook and pencil can mean the diff erence between a fu-ture fi lled with learning and one with little hope.”

Anyone wishing to learn more about the SchoolBOX program, or wanting to donate, can visit www.schoolBOX.ca

Cyclist Ilan Levy is riding across Canada to raise funds for SchoolBOX, a Canadian charity that builds school rooms in Central America. Levy rode into Hope on Friday and spent the night before continuing his journey.

10% IF HST REMAINSThe Federal government has made it the law to reduce the HST in BC.

The HST will drop from the current 12% to 10% in two stages -- if BC doesn't go back to the 12% GST/PST.

The BC Government asked Ottawa to reduce the HST to reduce the cost to families, and now it is law.

10% HST will save the average BC family $120 per year compared to going back to the higher 12% GST/PST.

Since 2001, the BC Government has decreased provincial income taxes by 37%.

BC gained 5,200 jobs in May and 30,000 more people are working compared to last year at this time.*

Lower taxes and more jobs. It's working for BC.

Choir spreads gospel sound

The Young Street Vocal Band is coming to Hope.

The group will be performing on June 26 at 7 p.m. at the Hope United Church on the corner of Queen Street and 3rd Avenue.

Based in Chilliwack, The Young Street Vo-cal Band (YSVB) of-fers a Southern Gospel style of music with rich harmony, which has touched the hearts of gospel music lovers throughout Western Canada and into the state of Washington.

Now in its 23rd year, the group was called to minister and share hope through the har-monies of southern gospel music. YSVB is

a part-time group that is often referred to as weekend warriors.

The thrill and excite-ment of performing ex-perienced by members is most evident at each

concert. Their goal of delivering a first-class performance filled with excitement and energy reflect a com-bined desire to share the good news gospel

music brings to all who listen.

There is no admis-sion fee, but a free will offering will be taken.

For information call 604-869-8435.

Library offers reading club and other holiday activities

Cure for summer boredomI cracked open a Latin/

English Dictionary this morning (that’s just one of the crazy things we do at the library!) and the word that caught my eye was taedium. Which was translated as “boredom.”

Interesting bit of ser-endipity because I was earlier going over some of the oodles of programs and draws and activities we have planned here for this summer.

Summer boredom is a condition that is 100 per cent preventable!

From birth to Kinder-garten, we have a “Read to Me” Summer Reading Club – children colour in squares on their Reading Record and at the end of seven days of read-ing, they can come into the library for stickers and prizes. And so much more!

From Kindergarten to Grade 6, our 2011 Sum-mer Reading Club has lots of great prizes as well! Children are en-couraged to gobble up some great reading (this

year’s theme: Savour Each Word) and read a minimum of 15 minutes a day.

Th en come into the library with their Read-ing Records for weekly stickers, draws and priz-es. Check out the Kids’ Summer Reading Club website at http://www.kidssrc.ca for reading ac-tivities, games and tips.

We’ll be hav-ing book draws and candy counts here at the library. And so much more!

From Grade 7 – 12, the Teen Club re-wards summer readers with chances to win one of several amazing FVRL prizes, including laptop com-puters, digital camcord-ers and eBook readers.

Teens can win more prizes and share with teens across Canada by participating in the on-line Teen Reading Club

by registering online at the Teen RC website at www.teenrc.ca .

From Grade 12 to ev-eryone else, the Adult Reading Club “Read for Luck” will run all sum-mer with readers eligible to enter prize draws as well as test their book knowledge with the “First Lines” contest.

So I’ve talked about all the prizes and draws but the biggest change in this year’s Summer Read-ing Club here in Hope is that we are having six free enter-tainment pro-grams in only eight weeks of summer!

We’ll have a magician, a pet parade, a “critter” guy, a comedian, musician, and a story-time in the community garden. All the dates and times are available at the library or on-line at www.fvrl.ca

At the end of the sum-

mer (on August 29, to be precise!), a well-earned Recognition Ceremony and Ice Cream Bash tops off a summer of reading. Medals will be awarded to those who have com-pleted their Reading Re-cords and there will be face-painting, music, and more.

Why all this, all sum-mer? Because regular reading during the sum-mer helps kids to main-tain or even improve their reading and literacy skills. And for the adults, well, it’s just fun!

Staff pick: (with many thanks to a regular library patron who came in just to share how much she enjoyed this book):

Crazy About Lili by William Weintrab

Fabulous! Set in the late 1940s, it’s the coming of age story of a young man in Montreal.

Th e title character is based on the legendary stripper Lili St. Cyr but the story is more about innocence, phoneys, and fools.

SportsRunning to fight juvenile arthritis

Mother and daughter to tackle 5K challenge togetherBarry StewartThe Hope Standard

Arthritis is an affl ic-tion that many people have to deal with as they age — but it hardly seems fair that a little child could get it, about a year after she learned to walk.

That’s how it was for six year-old Abi-gail Wright of Hope, whose first signs of juvenile arthritis sur-faced four years ago. It has been a struggle to get the disease under control but Abigail is now an active Grade 1 student and she and her mom, Jen-nifer will be running in a 5-km fundraiser this Sun-day in Van-couver.

“Abigail w a s 2 5 m o n t h s old when we noticed she was hobbling, then not even able to stand or walk,” recalled Mom on Mon-day.

“Her knee was swol-len to double its nor-mal size and was hot to the touch — then other joints started to hurt.

“It all happened over a two week span and she ended up spending 18 days in hospital, nine at MSA and nine at Children’s Hospital. They had to do exploratory sur-gery to fi nd out what was going on.”

Abigail has to travel to Children’s once

every four weeks for intravenous infusions of remicade. She also needs weekly injec-tions of methotrexate, which are now admin-istered at home. Then there are the daily eye drops to control uveitis, an infl amma-tion of the inner eye.

“The symptoms are pretty well managed with maximum dos-ages,” said Jennifer, a Special Education teacher at Coquihalla Elementary. “I know a woman in Hope who has arthritis and she takes .1 millilitres less

than Abi-gail — so Abigail is at the max f o r h e r body size.

“One in 1,000 chil-dren under the age of 16 can be a f f l i c t e d with some level o f childhood arthritis,” explained Je n n i f e r. “It’s differ-ent than

adult arthritis, so they have to treat it differently.

“Exercise certainly helps,” she added. “Abigail loves to swim and climb and run. It hurts if she falls down but she’ll go, go, go — then come to a complete stop. She’s got nothing left.

“I may have to carry her by piggy back to fi nish the run but that’s okay,” said Jennifer. “We’re not going to do it to win any prizes.”

While Mom hits the treadmill at home —

three times a week for three to seven kilome-tres at a time — Abi-gail trains by playing intensely.

This will be Abi-gail’s first distance

run but Jennifer did a half marathon fund-raiser in Barbados in December of 2009.

“Abigail ran with me across the finish line,” said Jennifer.

“She said at that time that she wanted to run the whole way next time.”

This weekend’s run is an interesting concept, organized

by Scotia Bank. Forty charity groups have come together to run their fundraising drives in the 5K or half marathon runs.

The Wrights are

running with the“Cassie and Friends”fund for children withjuvenile arthritis. Thegroup’s stated goalis “to bring all of theparents of childrenwith juvenile arthritisin B.C. together.”

“Cassie and Friendshas raised the mostfunds so far, the lasttime I checked,” saidJennifer.

It’s important tohave the support ofothers who are goingt h r o u g h s i m i l a rchallenges — andthe Wrights werefortunate to meet twofamilies that also haddaughters of about thesame age as Abigailwho were hit by early-onset juvenile arthri-tis. One of them wasCassie... as in “Cassieand Friends”... andthe other was Naomi.

“We’ll be runningwith Cassie and Naomiand their moms in therun on Sunday,” saidJennifer.

There’s also thegroup’s annual Fam-ily Day, this Saturday,which Jennifer ’shusband Aydan andtheir three year-olddaughter Naomi willalso attend.

“This will be thefourth annual FamilyDay,” said Jennifer.“There will be interna-tional doctors comingin to give workshopsfor the parents andthey’ll have activitiesfor the kids and theirsiblings.”

If you’d like tohelp the group reachits goal of raising$100,000 in the run,make your donationthrough www.canada-runningseries.com/svhm/svhmCHAR-ITY.htm .

Jennifer Wright and her daughter Abigail will be running in the 5K Scotia Bank Charity Challenge this Sunday in Vancouver. Abigail, who came down with juvenile arthritis when she was 25 months old, will be running to raise money for the Cassie and Friends fund for children with juvenile arthritis.
