A prescribed burn is set last year near the Highway 3 over-pass on Hwy 95.

The Rocky Mountain Forest District will be taking advantage of suddenly warmer temperatures and attempt to begin prescribed burns this week.

The burns, says Randy Harris, team leader of Ecosystem Restoration, are a follow up to five years of logging and

thinning.“We are looking to kill trees less

than a metre high,” he said. “That will rejuvenate the grass and reduce fire hazard.”

Burns are planned for:1. Munson Slough just south and

west of Jaffray near Lake Koocanusa2. Vicinity of the old Kimberley Air-

port on Hwy 95A

3. Premier Lake Provincial Park4. Artesian Spring just south of Mc-

Ginty Lake and MeadowbrookThere will also be pile burning near

Meadowbrook over the course of the spring and fall.

The burn at Munson Slough could be ignited as early as tomorrow, Friday April 5, Harris said.

Archery coach Vladimir Kopecky has coached at every level, from regional to world championships to Paralympics, but every win by one of his students is a thrill. This past weekend, Kopecky led a contingent of five Kimberley shooters to the provincial champi-onships in Cranbrook, and all five athletes medalled.

Darby Dean led the way with a gold medal. this is the second provincial championship for Darby, who has also been invited to represent Canada at the World Youth Championships in China next fall.

“That’s a big deal,” says coach Kopecky.Curtis Mummery took a silver, and his dad,

Chris, a newcomer to the sport, won his class. another family affair, the Krawenchuc’s, from Marysville saw daughter Jessica win a bronze and dad Richard, a bronze as well.

Kopecky, who has coached disabled Jaffrey archer Kevin Evans to world championships, has been invited to go to Winnipeg this month to speak to soldiers wounded in Afghanistan about his work with Paralympic athletes, and how he has taught them to compete despite disabilities.

A French immersion class of Grade 3/4 from T.M. Roberts School visited the Canadian Museum of Rail Travel on Thursday, March 28, for one of the special free school tours designed onboard the historic trains, which last until Friday, April 5. Here the class assembles inside the large oak fireplace in the Entrance Hall as they prepare to depart. Before leaving, the class shouted “yes” when asked by their teacher if they liked their tour.

Robert Dunsmuir, who played goalie for a majority of the season with the Grand Forks Border Bruins, has died in a house fire in Ontar-io.

According to reports, Dunsmuir, along with his mother Jennifer, fa-ther Kevin and younger brother Cameron died early on March 29 at their home in East Gwillimbury, 50 kilo-metres north of Toron-to.

The Grand Forks Border Bruins’ organi-zation was devastated by the news.

“All of us associated with the Border Bruins were terribly saddened to learn that Robbie Dunsmuir, who was the Bruins’ goalie for most of the 2012/13 season, was a victim of a house fire at his home in On-tario on Friday along with his parents and younger brother,” said team vice-president and assistant coach Matt Zamec in a release.

“Dunsmuir, or ‘Dunsy’ as he was known, was a talented goalie and an outstand-ing teammate, but above all, a kind, gener-ous and compassionate

person and an excep-tional young man.

“Robbie was an ex-emplary member of the community, donating his time to minor hock-ey and volunteering for numerous outreach programs.

“Everyone who got to know him was touched by his honesty, gentle spirit and sense of humour.

Border Bruins’ head coach and GM Nick De-schenes echoed similar sentiments.

“Robert was an out-standing person. He was a great teammate and leader on the ice and conducted himself in the highest standard off the ice,” Deschenes said. “He was a big part of our team and our hearts go out to his family and friends in Ontario.”

JESSIC A WINDLEFor the Bulletin

Spring is finally here, and it’s time to think about your apple trees. Yes, the harvest is months away, but now is the time to judiciously prune your tree for in-creased fruit production and health. Don’t know how, or find it hard to follow the directions from a book? Join Wild-sight Kimberley Cran-brook on Saturday, April 6 for a free workshop led by ISA Certified Arborist David Couse.

“These workshops are a great opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about managing the long term growth of fruit trees,” says Jessica Windle, Wildsight Food Sustain-ability Coordinator. “It’s also a chance to try out some of the tree pruning and fruit picking equip-ment we have available to borrow,” she adds.

The tree pruning workshops are just one part of the Apple Cap-ture Project, which Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook got off the ground a couple years ago. The project works to connect excess or fall-en apples with people who’d like to eat them – rather than allowing

The Columbia Basin Environmental Educa-tion Network (CBEEN) is growing, and would like to give cheers to BC Hydro, Revelstoke Credit Union, TD Friends of the Environ-ment Foundation and Columbia Basin Trust, for their support of CBEEN’s Wild Voices for Kids (WVFK) pro-gram. Thanks to these community-minded organizations, approxi-mately 4700 students across the Columbia Basin in 6 school dis-tricts have enjoyed en-vironmental or heritage programs already this school year.

The financial contri-butions of these organi-zations have allowed our children the oppor-tunity for hands-on learning. Through these programs they have dis-covered local archeolo-gy, explored wildlife habitats on snowshoes, learned about ava-lanche safety, and stud-ied bats and local fos-sils. CBEEN’s website offers 133 different pro-grams by 79 community educators across the Columbia Basin. Wild Voices for Kids also supports getting chil-dren out of the class-room and into the field by covering the cost of

They came, they deliber-ated—and they deliberated some more.

The panel of learned li-brarians tasked with choos-ing the 2013 One Book, One Kootenay (OBOK) shortlist had a tough time, consider-ing the wealth of talent throughout the Kootenays. But chose they did, and the Kootenay Library Federa-tion (KLF), host of the annu-al OBOK reader’s choice cel-ebration, is ready to an-nounce the selected books.

On this year’s shortlist: The Dolphin’s Tooth: a De-cade in Search of Adventure by Bruce KirKby, Confined Space by Deryn Collier and Never Going Back by Anto-

nia Banyard.“It’s a great shortlist,” says

KLF director Joanne Rich-ards. “As always, I feel in-credibly proud of the level of literary talent we enjoy in our region.”

The Dolphin’s Tooth: a

Decade in Search of Adven-ture (McLelland & Stewart) follows Kimberley author Bruce Kirkby through 15 years of high adventure in some of the world’s edgier places. From crocodile at-tacks while running Africa’s Blue Nile Gorge to rescuing

a fallen Sherpa on Mount Everest, Kirkby, a Globe and Mail columnist and photog-rapher, has travelled to 80 countries and embraced 18 guiding seasons with an un-common passion for the wild.

Confined Space intro-

duces small-town coroner Bern Fortin as he investi-gates a murder in a brewery. Author Deryn Collier grew up in Montreal and lived in Creston—where she worked for a time at Columbia Brew-ery—before settling in Nel-son. Confined Space was shortlisted for the Arthur Ellis Award for best unpub-lished first crime novel be-fore it was snatched up by Simon & Schuster in 2012.

Never Going Back (This-tledown Press) brings to-gether a group of high school friends after 10 years of sep-aration as they converge for a friend’s memorial, each of them with their own memo-ries—and secrets—about a decade-old tragedy, and each having found their own ways to cope. Author Anto-nia Banyard has lived in South Africa, Zambia, Aus-

tralia, and Nelson—where she now lives with her fami-ly.

The reading public is asked to vote for their favour-ite shortlisted book between April 15 and August 2. The2013 selected OBOK au-thor is celebrated in a tour of select Kootenay Libraries in the fall. The KLF makes sure that all libraries in the Federa-tion have copies of the short-listed titles—so the reading can begin, and feisty conver-sations ensue.

This is the fifth anniversary of OBOK, a region-wide book club supported by public li-braries in the East and West Kootenay, and the Columbia Basin Trust. www.obok.ca is the place to find information about the books and inter-views with the authors, as well as upcoming OBOK events at a library near you.

This Saturday’s workshops will run from 10am-12pm in

Cranbrook, and from 2pm-4pm in Kimber-ley. Registration is re-quired as space is limit-ed. To sign up for free, visit www.wildsight.ca/apples or call Jessica at (250) 908-3276.

bussing for field trips. WVFK program co-

ordinator Susie Mac-Donald emphasizes that “This program, which is unique in Canada, of-fers our students’ edu-cation from the local source that schools are often unable to fit into their strained budgets. Programs meet their grade and curriculum needs in a unique and interesting way with presenters drawn from all walks of life to share their unique passions about environmental

and heritage topics. The value of these programs lies not only in curricu-lum but also in the hands-on learning style that captures students who have difficulty learning in the tradi-tional classroom style”.

CBEEN anticipates that if funding allows, over 7000 more students could enjoy a Wild Voic-es for Kids program this year. CBEEN is under-taking a campaign to raise $25,000 to ensure continued program-ming through this

spring and into the fall of 2013. Applause goes to the Regional District of East Kootenay for contributing already to this challenge. If you or your organization is in-terested in contributing to our children’s educa-tion through this unique program please contact Susie MacDonald at [email protected]. CBEEN is a registered charity and individual donations can be made on our website www.cbeen.org.

Young Cranbrook band

The Good Ol’ Goats is now in

Canada’s top four in the CBC

Searchlight contest

Sally MacDonalDTownsman Staff

U p - a n d - c o m i n g Cranbrook band The Good Ol’ Goats con-tinue to turn heads across the nation, and now they are in the top four new bands in

Canada.CBC’s Searchlight

contest scans the country to source out the best new bands, and it has set its sights firmly on The Good Ol’ Goats.

On Tuesday, April 2, the local band, made up of Mount Baker Secondary School students, pro-gressed to the semifi-nals of the Searchlight contest, placing the band in the top four in Canada.

Over the next week, until midnight on Sunday, April 7, peo-ple can vote online at www.music.cbc.ca/#/Searchlight to put The

Goats through to the grand final.

The four remaining bands are St. John’s, Newfoundland band Sherman Downey and the Ambiguous Case, Hamilton, Ontario band Poor Angus, and Ottawa’s Henry Nor-wood, who is The Goats’ direct competi-tion in this penulti-mate round.

The Good Ol’ Goats are so close to win-ning the contest, which secures them a paid gig at the CBC Music festival in To-ronto, a CBC Music video session, and $20,000 worth of mu-sical equipment from

Yamaha Canada.It’s been a meteoric

rise for the young local band that formed in 2011. The Good Ol’ Goats consists of Jo-elle Winkel on shaker and backing vocals, Nolan Ackert on lead vocals, banjo and gui-tar, Angus MacDonald on mandolin, backing vocals and fiddle, Theo Moore on stand-up bass and backing vocals, Julian Bueck-ert on drums and Angus Liedtke on gui-tar, dobro, banjo, har-monica and vocals.

FoR THE BUllETIn

Registration is now online for the first annual Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo cycling event and the applications are already starting to trickle in.

Glenn Dobie, the chair of the Gran Fondo event, said roughly a dozen names have trickled in, and expects the 500 spots to fill up by the end of early registration at the end of June.

“We wanted it to appeal to every type of cyclist,” said Dobie. “The 50km route appeals to people who want to go for a nice ride with fami-ly or friends then have a nice meal afterwards at St. Eugene.”

The event—the first of it’s kind in the East Kootenays—is billed as a ride, not a race. Participants have the option of signing up to 50-, 100-, and 150-kilometre courses around Cranbrook and Kimberley, with the St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino as the start and end point.

Dobie said he hopes the event adds to others in the region, such as the Wasa Triathlon, Round the Mountain and Six in the Stix.

“We wanted it to appeal to every

type of cyclist,” Dobie said. “The 50km route appeals to people who want to go for a nice ride with fami-ly or friends then have a nice meal afterwards at St. Eugene.”

The routes will be clearly marked, and aid stations will be positioned throughout all three courses for riders to stock up on nutrition and water, as well as trou-bleshoot any mechanical or medi-cal issues that crop up.

Dobie and the organizing com-mittee—namely the Cranbrook Sunrise Rotary Club—are hoping to take proceeds raised from the event and reinvest it back into communi-ty initiatives and projects.

“Funds raised by the event will be used to enhance and maintain the Rails to Trails system as well as support other local community ser-vice projects,” said Dobie.

The event is being sponsored by the St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casi-no, along with Western Financial Group. Anyone interested in regis-tering for the event can visit the website at www.krgf.ca.

Predation Regarding Barry Coulter’s story “Locals

want a halt to any-buck season”:First, a thank you to Mr. Palmer and Mr.

Bowe for taking the initiative to stop the any-buck mule deer season. As a resident hunter I also have concerns with mule deer in the East Kootenay, and being so, have signed the petition. With this said, I believe that the any-buck season is only partially to blame for the mule deer de-cline that we are seeing today. When wild-life populations are healthy and plentiful it is good for the health of any ungulate pop-ulation to harvest from all ages of the pop-ulation. Poor decisions by the Wildlife Branch, starting in the 1980s with the over harvest of mule deer through the limited entry ‘draw’ system, then budget cuts in the 1990s, the almost total elimination of habitat restoration work on winter range, and then — the most crucial in my opinion — predation. Bears, cougars, and yes, wolves.

The increase in predators in the last 20 years throughout the Kootenays is alarm-ing to say the least! Wolves in particular are ravaging our mule deer population to a point in some areas that we may never see our mule deer rebound unless govern-ment steps in to alleviate the problem. Mr. Coulter’s story implies that the hunting community is harming the mule deer, but in reality it is predation. The hunting com-munity prior to 2010 and for 10-plus years prior to that were only harvesting four-point or better bucks from the mule deer population. Changes in seasons/regula-tions alone will not maintain or increase mule deer populations unless the other is-sues are addressed.

So keep signing the petition, but also wake up the wildlife branch and demand that they reduce the predator population and increase much needed habitat resto-ration work as well.

silent No MoreOn March 27 the Nanaimo Daily News

published Don Olsen’s letter, which as-serted that First Nations people are un-derachievers incapable of taking care of themselves; whose only “fix” would be to make them “equals” by vetoing “tradi-tional use and cultural nonsense”, educat-ing “their children to become modern citizens”, discouraging them from “find-ing their identity and source of pride” from their ancestors, “turning off the taps” and letting them “stand or fall on their own account”.

I won’t bother to address these ridicu-lous claims, except to say that apparently Mr. Olsen is unaware that his notions have been attempted before. Assimilation, out-lawing traditions, child abductions and internment in mission schools — cultural genocide — are part of Canada’s history. And those policies are just SOME of the wrongs Canada’s First Nations people have survived.

The fact that First Nations have been recovering and seeking their due rights and justice is what seems to be bothering Mr. Olsen. His letter brings to light the ig-norant, naïve, and hostile sentiments that lurk in the dark corners of non-aboriginal society. I would bet Mr. Olsen espoused his vile opinions to family, friends, and any-one else who would listen!

I’m sure I’m not the only one who has fallen into stunned silence when a family member, colleague, friend, acquaintance

or stranger has spouted such racist opin-ions, jokes or slurs. Wanting to avoid con-flict, it seemed simpler to just ignore them. I have watched others do the same.

One day I realized that being silent was was tantamount to consent for such be-haviour, and leads people like Mr. Olsen to delusions that their views are worthy of further broadcast. Without offense or op-position, they assume their comments are acceptable. So I resolved to be silent no more!

Silent no more in the presence of igno-rant or racist opinions, comments, jokes or slurs. Silent no more while our govern-ment ignores First Nations’ pleas for jus-tice and equality. Silent no more during never-ending negotiations for settlements that are long overdue; or while millions are spent on delay tactics and legal fees rather than resolutions. Silent no more while First Nations people and communities contin-ue to suffer!

Instead we can find our voice and, with respect and dignity, seize the opportunity to open up a dialogue; or shut them down if need be.

I encourage all non-aboriginals to be SILENT NO MORE! We need to speak up and ‘work with our people’ towards under-standing and supporting the aspirations of First Nations people.

Peace, reconciliationThe spring Equinox, together with Eas-

ter and Passover holy days, emphasize new beginnings, reconciliation and peace. Yet globally, peace is in short supply.

In our lifetimes the World Wars and many regional wars have brought un-speakable anguish to countless families and communities. Military actions have been demonstrably ineffective in estab-lishing durable peace.

Closer to home, the absence of peace and reconciliation is evident in the misera-ble violence-ridden conditions in prisons; in the poverty endemic in Aboriginal com-munities and in urban cores; and in the astonishing lack of government attention to the perpetual crisis of missing and mur-dered Aboriginal women.

Peace is relational, requiring a concern for others and for our fragile shared world and all its inhabitants. Peace becomes a verb, implying action for peace. Peace makes space for education, for democracy, for cultures and arts, for a healthy environ-ment, and for families and relationships. War and myopic self-interest cannot guar-antee those blessings.

We stand with those who value peace to insist to our governments that, interna-tionally, we prefer the hard work of diplo-macy to military solutions; and that, do-mestically, we prefer processes of domes-tic reconciliation to criminalization, incar-ceration, marginalization and impoverish-ment.

running for or fromBill Bennett’s election ads fail to say

which party he is running for. His ads

leave the impression that he is running from his Liberal brand. On March 3, CBC quoted Bill Bennett on Christy Clark: “She’s a trooper. She’s our leader. We have a lot of faith in her.” Global News, March 3, reported that Bennett said “he didn’t think he would run if Clark wasn’t his leader.” Mr. Bennett appears to be giving a hearty party stand at the Coast, while running away from his party in this riding. He can run but he can’t hide from his govern-ment’s record.

getting caughtRe: Letter by John Balfour, March 21,

2013:Mr. Balfour insists that the secret ac-

count created by the NDP to syphon off NDP constituency office funds was “fol-lowing the rules.” He also claims that the Legislative Comptroller “signed off on the legality” of the funds, but offers zero evidence of this. The leaked draft of the Auditor General’s report states that NDP MLAs from across B.C., like sheep, obeyed their political masters by kicking back $2,400 per year for five years to a fund that was used to pay political oper-atives to do political outreach in the Lower Mainland.

The Auditor General said the account was used for improper partisan purposes. The Auditor General also said the NDP used these constituency office funds to cover up the fact that the NDP failed to balance their Caucus budget in 2008 and 2009 — and they now expect us to believe that they can balance a $42 billion provin-cial budget?

I am not expressing an opinion, like Mr. Balfour was. I am passing along what the Auditor General actually said. What the NDP don’t want the public to know is that they told the Legislative Comptroller that they would use this secret fund for non-partisan purposes, but they got caught by the Auditor General doing political out-reach with money that was supposed to be used in constituencies such as Columbia River-Revelstoke to benefit the constitu-ents there.

The MNLA rule book states clearly that constituency office funds must not be used for political purposes. The NDP broke the rules and the Auditor General caught them.

It is well-known that Bill Bennett plac-es his priority on helping his constituents, and if his party told him he had to give back $2,400 per year of money he was sup-posed to use to help his constituents, Bill would tell them to take a hike. No NDP MLA had the guts to stand up for their constituents and say no to this corrupt scheme.

‘Us’ and ‘Not Us’I am puzzled by a line in Mr. Bennett’s

campaign ad. What does it mean — “He is one of us”? Who is “us”? Even more im-portant, who is not “us”? How do you tell the difference between the two? What cri-terion is used to select the difference be-tween the two — gender, race, political ideology?

This statement was also used in the last election.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 2013

It was probably forty years ago that I fell in love with the lithe blonde woman. I never spoke to her or even learned her name. She was the subject of a photo-graph in a Paris Match magazine that I was pretending I could read. She was poised alone like an oread, a mountain nymph, on an almost vertical rock face in the Italian Dolomite Mountains and I fell head over heels in love with the idea of her.

My trouble — one of so many, my friends assure me — is that I have always ad-mired outdoorsy, athletic women. After all, I did successfully per-suade one to marry me.

In those happy days, just after the sec-ond world war had stumbled to a conclu-sion, I was delighted to join a group of young people who had chosen rock-climb-ing and mountaineering as their sport. We were an eclectic lot from all walks of life and it was with them that I encountered those strong but beautiful women I learned to admire.

DOROTHY: When I met Dorothy the first time, she was already married and had been with her husband, working at all sorts of jobs, doing a great deal of moun-taineering and living on an ocean-going yacht. I never saw Dorothy in a dress; she probably didn’t own one. Her hair was al-ways in a braid and coming undone, but

she was still beautiful. And she was tough. On a week-long back-packing trek through Jasper Park, she was the only one of us who never complained about distance, flies, steepness of the slope or disinterest-ing food but, near the end of the expedi-tion, as we all swam in an icy lake, I

glimpsed her naked shoulders and they were rubbed raw from the straps of the gigantic pack that had been her daily burden.

JANET: This diminu-tive woman once told me, “Unless you can put up

with someone whilst camping in a small tent in foul weather and lousy food for several days, don’t even consider marry-ing him.” She found the right man, climbed with him in the Alps, in the Rockies and the Andes and, when she was a grand-mother, beat her native guide to the top of Kilimanjaro in Africa.

GWEN: Gwen died just a few days ago. She was eighty-three but I remember her from over sixty years ago. I even saw her on TV, a tall stately blonde (even on black and white film) and she was being inter-viewed about her joining her husband in a climbing group in the Himalayas. When asked why she, a (mere implied) woman, was going, she replied coyly, “We want to know if women are different.”

The Sherpas certainly found out about

this blonde woman being different. They were fascinated by her, especially as she could carry a fair load and yet keep up with them, even at extremely high alti-tudes.

WENDY: A gang of us had just success-fully climbed the extremely steep Grepon in the French Alps and it was Wendy’s turn to rope off the summit over massive cliffs. With a little wry smile, she muttered sotto voce, “Just think. I could be polishing the front room floor right now.” I wasn’t as light-hearted as I followed her over.

Many years later, when we were remi-niscing, she told me, “The hardest climb I’ve done was following John, who had the baby on his back, up that awful track in the Pyrenees and singing silly nursery songs as we went.”

JEAN: “You know why she’s marrying you, don’t you?” said my best man as I stood sweating into my unaccustomed suit. “She thinks you’re the only one that can keep up with her in the hills.”

I whispered back, “She’s so besotted with my charms, she slows down for me.” Then the bridal march started.

Jimmy, as we all knew her, not only slowed down for me over sixty years of marriage, but she stayed with me through thick and thin, crazy climbs, wild ski runs, dangerous caves, two boisterous children and my rotten sense of humour.

I wonder how that pretty French oread fared in her later years.

In praise of the oreads

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

Kootenay Ice veterans Brock Montgomery and Joey Leach are turning pro.

After ending the sea-son in the first round of the WHL playoffs, the two overage players have reached deals with AHL clubs as they look to fur-ther their careers in pro-fessional hockey.

Montgomery is pack-ing his bags and heading to Austin for a shot with the AHL’s Texas stars, re-joining former Kootenay Ice teammates in Matt Fraser and Cody Eakin, while Leach is off to the Oklahoma City Barons.

After having a stellar season last year that saw him put up the best numbers of his career, Montgomery powered his way to even better stats this last campaign, with 31 goals and 17 as-sists for 48 points, which was good for third in team scoring.

That was good enough to impress the scouts with the Dallas Stars, and their affiliate, the Texas Stars came knocking.

“I talked with Dallas at the start of the year, kind of kept in contact a

bit so it was nice, that that’s the team I signed with, because they were interested all along,” said Montgomery, “so I ap-preciate that. They kept looking at me all season.”

“…It’s a pretty cool feeling. It’s what you work your entire life for—train every summer, is what it kind of comes down to—and now that I’ve got the opportunity, I’ve got to make the best of it with my work ethic down there and I have to prove myself everyday.”

The ball got rolling after the Ice were bounced out of the WHL playoffs in five games against the Edmonton Oil Kings, with the agree-ment on Sunday eve-ning.

“Went over it with my agent and everything looked good, so I told my agent that I was happy with it, and the next day, he told me the deal was done,” Montgomery said.

Montgomery will join up with the club on Wednesday, and will likely begin practicing as soon as possible, howev-er, he doesn’t know when he will make his AHL debut.

However, he’ll lean on advice and support

from his former Ice teammate in Fraser.

“He’ll take care of me down there,” said a smil-ing Montgomery.

Leach had his deal confirmed with the Bar-ons on Monday night, and will head out to join his AHL parent team on Wednesday for the re-mainder of the season.

The Kootenay captain has had a bit of a roller coaster experience with professional teams, get-ting drafted by the Cal-gary Flames in the third round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, but turned into a free agent after two years.

Leach attended the rookie camp for the Win-nipeg Jets last off-season, but has now come to am-ateur tryout terms with Oklahoma.

“I talked to a couple other teams, but yes, this was the one that was pushing to get me there, so I thought it was a good choice to go there and show them what I got.” said Leach.

The Ice rearguard ends his career as the all-time franchise leader in plus/minus with a plus 96, while adding six goals and 28 assists through-out the last campaign.

LEADING THE WAY: Kootenay Ice forward Luke Philp was named the Boston Pizza Top Playoff Performer for the 2013 WHL post-season. Philp’s play was consistent in the series against the Edmonton Oil Kings, and he led by example, recording two goals and one assist in five games. Pictured above: Trevor Gordon, with Boston Pizza, hands over the hardware to Philp.

Reinhart named Ice captain for

next season TRE VOR CR AWLEY

Sports Editor

Though their season recently ended, the Kootenay Ice are already looking forward and have named Sam Rein-hart as the team captain for the next campaign.

Reinhart is picking up the captaincy mantle from Joey Leach, who is graduating out of the WHL and attempting to break into the pros with the Oklahoma City Bar-ons.

Reinhart’s eldest brother Max, who spent his career with the Ice, wore an alternate in his final season, while Grif-fin, the middle sibling, is captain of the Edmon-ton Oil Kings.

“It’s a huge honour to be named captain of such a successful orga-nization over the past decade,” said Reinhart. “We learned so much over the past year, so ev-

eryone’s coming in next year with a lot of experi-ence, and my job shouldn’t be too diffi-cult.

“…You just got to be comfortable in all situa-tions. It’s not as much of talking in the room after every period to get ev-eryone going—it’s just leading by example, on the ice especially, and staying composed.”

Reinhart, who doesn’t turn 18 years old until November, led the team in offensive pro-duction this past season, with 35 goals and 50 as-sists for 85 points.

However, leading a team as captain is more than just being a talent-ed hockey player, ac-cording to Ice general manager Jeff Chynoweth.

“Leadership is im-portant on any team and it comes from within,” said Chynoweth. “Sam has been the leader of his peer group on and off the ice since joining the club two years ago.

“Not only is he an elite player, but he has the respect of all his teammates and coach-ing staff with his work ethic and commitment to excellence.”

Wakefield scored in a shootout and Canada beat the United States 3-2 in a shootout to open the women’s world hockey champi-onship Tuesday.

Wakefield’s score was the shootout win-ner when goaltender Shannon Szabados stopped Hilary Knight in the fourth round. Meghan Agosta-Mar-ciano also scored and Szabados stopped three of four shots for Canada in the shootout.

Canada trailed 2-0 after two periods. Cap-tain Hayley Wickenheis-er skated to the bench and headed for the dressing room in the second period. She did not return.

“Heading into the third period with a two-

goal lead, we’ve got to make sure we’re making smart chips, smart pucks,” U.S. captain Julie Chu said. “Turn-overs are going to cost us and I think that’s kind of what happened.”

Knight was the first shooter for the United States and she scored on that attempt before Szabados stopped her second.

The U.S. had the mo-mentum until Canada’s Rebecca Johnston and Catherine Ward scored in the final nine min-utes of regulation to send the game into overtime.

“We’re a confident group and we were able to take it to them in the third,” Wakefield said.

Monique Lamou-reux and Brianna Deck-er scored for the United States.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Whether you’re dreaming or at an event, you are on the move. You feel passionately about the direction in which you are head-ing. If you listen to the voices on the sidelines, you might meet resistance. Your determination can’t be reasoned with. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You see life from a different perspective than many other people. As much as you might try to detach, your inner voice will scream passionately about the matter at hand. Calm your-self down before making any dramatic statements. Tonight: Pursue a favorite pastime. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) A meeting or get-together could give you quite a start-up kick, which will charge the remainder of the day. Talk to a dear friend in order to gain a different per-spective. Understand what is happening on a deeper level, and eliminate judgments if pos-sible. Tonight: Share news.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Keep reaching out to someone you care about. You might be surprised by what happens when you hear this person’s news and rationale for his or her reactions. A boss or an authority figure could be -- at best -- in a sour mood. Steer clear. Tonight: Return calls and emails. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A call or a message triggers a lot of action. Someone might be more irritated than you’d originally thought. Stay on top of problems, but try to be flex-ible. That attitude will get the situation calmed down as much as possible. Tonight: Off to the gym. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your creativity emerges when faced with a problem. Stay cen-tered, and understand that you will need to resolve this issue. A brainstorming session produces insightful thoughts. Take a lunch break to clear your mind. You will come back with more ideas. Tonight: Ever playful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Take a step back and observe.

See how others handle a do-mestic issue. The solution that emerges might not be exactly to your liking, but you will get a better idea as to where they are coming from. Your lightness and energy need to be focused elsewhere. Tonight: At home. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Say what you want, but do con-sider the reactions you might get as a result. Look beyond the obvious and past your ob-jectives. Evaluate your words if you want to maintain peace and accomplish a long-term goal at the same time. Tonight: Let a discussion continue. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be sure of your financial deci-sions. Do some fact-checking if needed. You also might want to check out an investment, as it could involve more risks than you are aware of. A loved one pushes you to spend more time with him or her. Make it your pleasure. Tonight: Run an errand or two. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll see a situation in a new light, and you will be ready to

make a move. If you do, others might feel left out, and you could have a lot of apologies to make. Decide whether the flak you’ll likely receive is worth it. Tonight: Take a midweek break from your day-to-day routine. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might want to try a differ-ent approach. It will work, and you will stay ahead of the game. Realize that you don’t have the audience or the support you de-sire. Timing is not working with you. Put this idea on the back burner for now. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could overspend or over-commit if you are not careful. Be aware of your limitations before you take action or say “yes” to an offer. Remember, you are hu-man and can do only so much. Discussions need to focus on friends. Tonight: Have a sponta-neous get-together. BORN TODAY Comedian Eddie Murphy (1961), singer Leona Lewis (1985), actor Alec Baldwin (1958) ***

Dear Annie: I have been dating my boy-friend for four years. We both have children from our previous relationships and share custody with our exes. Until recently, we had our kids on the same weekends. Then my boyfriend’s ex decided that her children cannot be here when my 11-year-old son is staying over. Because my son is the oldest, he tends to be blamed whenever the kids do inappro-priate things. But kids pick up all kinds of things in school, from other kids and from other adults. I feel my son is being blamed unfairly. My boyfriend’s ex doesn’t know me or my children. I have heard her children say and do things they should not be allowed to do, but I seem to be the only one who no-tices. My boyfriend makes excuses for their behavior, but if my children misbehave, he is quick to let me know that I need to discipline them. The major problem is his 9-year-old daugh-ter, who wants to be the center of attention when she is around her dad. She becomes upset, demanding and controlling, and she recently began sassing me. I love his children and take care of them as if they were my own. I understand the need for them to have individual time with their parents, but I’d also like them to learn how to get along with each other. I blame my boy-friend for letting his ex control the situation. Am I overreacting? -- Confused and a Little Sad Dear Confused: You are on shaky ground when it comes to telling your boyfriend and his ex how to arrange their visitation sched-ule. It is not unreasonable for the mother to prefer that her kids have time with Dad without your children around. We think you should try to make friends with the ex so you can work on getting the kids together for holidays and special occasions. They will be less belligerent toward one another (and toward you) if they don’t have to compete for their father’s attention at every visit. Dear Annie: I am an administrative as-sistant and am proud of the level of profes-sionalism I have maintained in the office. However, I feel like I am about to go out of my mind. I share an office with a very rude woman. I do my best to smooth out her rough spots with customers, but she has one horrible habit I cannot fix. She constantly chews gum with her mouth open and looks like a cow. I find it amazing that our administrators, who deal with her daily, have never men-tioned this to her. I purposely turn my music up a bit louder to drown out the sound. She and I do not have a good relationship, so I cannot think of a way to mention this with-out upsetting her. The stress it causes me is giving me a headache. It is gross and unpro-fessional. Any suggestions? -- Pro in Penn-sylvania Dear Pro: You have nothing to lose by ask-ing her nicely to please not chew gum when dealing with the customers, because it is unprofessional, as well as unappealing to see and hear. You also could talk to human resources or a supervisor about instituting a behavior and dress code to cover such things. It is often easier than singling out one particular employee. Dear Annie: I’d like to respond to “N.Y., N.Y.,” the 34-year-old who found it difficult to visit his ailing grandparents. When our parents’ health deteriorated, it wasn’t pleas-ant to visit, but we kept in mind all the times they took care of us when we were babies, cleaning soiled diapers and sitting up all night when we were sick. Recently, my uncle suffered a stroke. At our first visit, he didn’t recognize us. For the next visit, we brought his favorite music and read stories from Reader’s Digest. I know those grandparents would enjoy some company. -- MD, Calif. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Eleanor Inness “Snooks”

1940 - 2013Eleanor Innes passed away on Thursday, March 28, 2013 in Cranbrook at 72 years of age. She was born on July 16, 1940. She was a very special lady to so many people.

Snooks had a love for animals; it didn’t matter what kind or size. Her dogs and her horse were most special to her. She was an animal whisperer, loved camping, fishing and hunting or anything outdoors. Her new love became field trials with her horse, and Keith her husband, and she always looked forward to going to trials in the USA and Alberta where she met amazing friends, and was known as Fast Eddy.

Snooks is survived by her husband Keith Inness, son Terry Lode (Bev), daughter Kim Boggs (Glen), and daughter Robin Pinchak (Clayton). She also leaves behind numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren that meant the world to her.
