CSRD Receives Grant for 

Blind Bay Road Trail 

The Columbia Shuswap Regional 

District received a $690,000 grant from 

the Ministry of Community, Sport, and 

Cultural Development to assist 

construction of a parallel paved trail 

along Blind Bay Road. This project will 

provide a safe and accessible 

transportation alternative for residents 

currently sharing the busy roads with 

vehicles. 

The Trail has been in progress for 

eight years and is about 50 percent 

complete. The CSRD has been funding 

the work of the South Shuswap 

Recreation Trail Society in this project 

by way of an annual grant-in-aid bylaw 

which is set to expire in 2012. 

The South Shuswap Recreation Trail 

Society completed many sections of the 

Trail but bypassed the sections with 

difficult terrain. This provincial grant, 

given under the Community 

Recreation Program, will provide 

funding to complete this portion which 

has rock bluffs, steep slopes and poor 

stability. This grant will enable 

connections between completed 

portions as well as beginning 

construction at the Sorrento end of the 

Trail. 

“I’m extremely happy,” says Judith 

Nerbas, one of the Directors of the 

South Shuswap Recreation Trail 

Society. “Hopefully we can get a good 

portion completed. It’s wonderful.” 

CSRD Parks Team Leader Marcin 

Pachcinski says this is good news for 

local residents and for all who have 

worked hard on this project. “We are 

thrilled about this funding 

announcement. It will certainly give 

people the opportunity to get out of 

their vehicles more and enjoy Blind 

Bay on foot or bike,” says Pachcinski. 

“Project wise, the good news is that all 

the engineering drawings have already 

been completed. We will be meeting 

with our engineers in a few days to get 

a better sense of how quickly we can 

put shovels in the ground.” 

South Shuswap Director Ted 

Bacigalupo says he’s pleased to have 

this generous financial boost for the 

trail. “This very significant support 

provided by the Province, with the help 

of our MLA, will go a long way in 

helping complete the Blind Bay 

Roadside Trails in the South Shuswap. 

The South Shuswap Trail Society and 

the CSRD have been working on this 

project for nearly 10 years to provide a 

safe walking, biking and exercise trail. 

The financial support could not have 

been timelier and it couldn’t be more 

appreciated.” 

Shuswap MLA George Abbott says

CSRD Area “C” 

- submitted by Ted Bacigalupo, Director 

Board Report March 15, 2012 

Sunnybrae Water System Grant 

Application 

The Board approved an application 

for a grant opportunity from the Gas 

Tax Agreement’s General Strategic 

Priorities Fund through the Union of 

BC Municipalities which if successful 

could assist in the necessary first phase 

upgrades of the subject utility with the 

consent of the users. The owner 

abandoned this utility which is being 

escheated to the province. The CSRD 

already undertook and completed an 

engineering assessment of this utility. 

CSRD2012 Five Year Financial Plan 

– Bylaw # 5625 

The Board gave 1st, 2nd and 3rd 

Reading and Adopted Bylaw 5625 

which sets out the 2012 Budget of 

$34,981,831 and the basis for a five 

year plan. The tax requisition for 2012 

is $13.04million increased from $13 

million from 2011. 

Development Variances affecting 

Floodplain Setbacks and Exemptions 

The Board endorsed amendments to 

Policy P-19 to reflect current 

legislative requirements as per Sections 

910(2), 910(5)and 922(2)b of the Local 

Government Act. Applications for 

variances must be accompanied by a 

professional geotechnical report that 

complies with and satisfies policy and 

LGA regulations. 

Electoral Area “C” Official 

Community Plan - Bylaw # 725 

After six years in the making, the 

Board gave 2nd Reading to the first 

Area “C” wide Official Community 

Plan. A Public Hearing will be 

scheduled soon to provide another 

opportunity for presentation to and 

receive comments from the public and 

other interested parties. Bylaw# 724 is 

available for viewing at the CSRD and 

online. 

Canada Census Report – 2011 

According to the 2011 Canada 

census, the population for Area “C” 

declined from 7,695 in 2006 to 7,662 in 

spite of the considerable number of 

new homes constructed and the influx 

of new residents. An increase of 

13.3% in population to 6,762 is 

recorded from 2006. Blind Bay noted 

an increase from 2,775 to 2,972 from 

2006 to 2011. The effectiveness of the 

Canada Census process and accuracy 

of the results is questionable. 

(Grant for Blind Bay Rd Trail Continued from page 1) 

the grant for this project, along with 

one for Sicamous ($314,989 for 

Finlayson Park) and Spallumcheen 

($128,000 for McLeod Subdivision 

Park), are significant investments in the 

local area. “I am very pleased that the 

communities of the Shuswap have 

received such a substantial investment 

through the Community Recreation 

Grant Program, which will promote 

physical activity and healthy choices by 

creating new and enhanced places for 

residents to get out and get fit.”

Probus 

A group of local people are planning 

to start a Probus club in the South 

Shuswap area. This would be 

sponsored by the Salmon Arm Probus 

club, which started in 2003 and has 

now reached its maximum of 90 

members. The new club would 

encompass the area west of Salmon 

Arm to Chase and the North Shore. 

There will be an information meeting 

for anyone who is interested to join 

Probus on Thursday, April 12 at 

10:00am. This will be held at Toad Hall 

behind Toby’ s Restaurant in Sorrento. 

From the Editor: 

Most community events are run by a 

crew of volunteers. Sorrento has a 

history of putting on some top-notch 

festivals and events, but sometimes 

volunteers move away or just get 

“burnt out”. The Sorrento Accordion 

Festival is in need of new workers this 

year in order to go ahead with their 

event. See the ad at the bottom of this 

page, and if you are able to lend a 

hand, call Dianne at 675-2531. 

I have the pleasure once again of 

announcing the winners in our annual 

short story contest. Writers were 

given the first line to use in their story. 

For the second year in a row, this 

contest has been won by Karen Beggs 

of Salmon Arm, with second place 

awarded to Ken Stengler, also of 

Salmon Arm. Read the winning story 

on page 10, and both of these stories at 

www.sorrentowave.com 

What is Probus? It is a local 

association of retired and semi retired 

persons with professional, business or 

management experience and others who 

have had some measure of 

responsibility in any field of worthy 

endeavour-who are of character and 

respected in their communities. Clubs 

meet regularly for fellowship and to 

hear guest speakers. PROBUS is not a 

"senior citizens" or "lonely hearts " 

club. Its basic purpose is to provide 

regular opportunities to promote 

healthy minds and bodies and, through 

social interaction and activities, expand

10 Year Fixed Rate 3.89 

Does That Make Sense? 

- submitted by Joel Olson, Mortgage Broker 

This means war! Clearly, that is the 

mentality that most lenders are taking 

right now to drive down four and five 

year rates. Obviously, there is more 

than meets the eye when it comes to 

these "no-frills" mortgages, but what 

about taking a completely different 

approach. What if you could get a fixed 

rate mortgage for ten years? That's 

right quietly 10 Year mortgages have 

come out that make a lot of fiscal 

sense? Here are some advantages: 

1. The same monthly payment for 10 

years. 

2. Accurate cash-flow on investment 

properties for 10 Years. 

3. A very accurate budget for 10 

Years. 

Let's take it farther, suppose you have 

a $300,000 mortgage, and you accept 

that for three years that 2.99% rate will 

exist (probably not, but anyway), and 

then the average interest rate after that 

time for seven years is 5.0% (this 

would still be a rock-bottom rate). Over 

the first three years you would miss out 

on $5292 in extra interest your paying, 

but over the next seven years you 

would save $18,236, which means your 

savings in ten years time would be 

$12,944!!!, This also means you could 

have shaved off eight extra months off 

your mortgage. Sound good? One last 

bonus, due to government regulation 

that helps out longer mortgage terms 

the penalty on breaking your mortgage 

is only three months interest every 

time. This means that this is a big 

saving on penalty if you do break your 

mortgage. 

Do you want to be almost $13.000 

richer in ten years, or kicking yourself 

for missing this opportunity? The 

choice is yours.

First Responders 

Who Do You Count On in Your 

Community? 

You have chosen to live in a rural 

community more than 15 minutes from 

a hospital. What happens if you or a 

loved one has a stroke, a heart attack, a 

fall, a serious traffic accident? Call 911! 

The call is relayed to the BC 

Ambulance Service. Often the 

ambulance is too far away to provide 

immediate life-saving support. BC 

Ambulance relays the call to First 

Responders who live and work 

throughout your community and can 

reach you within minutes. Volunteer 

First Responders are trained to give 

Spring Craft 

Sale 

The word is out 

that local crafts 

people are 

gathering in 

Sorrento on Saturday, March 31st to 

sell their latest creations. This vibrant 

community is home to many fine 

artisans who will entice you with their 

wooden bowls, pottery, sculptures, 

fibre art, knitting, handmade soap, 

leather goods, dough art and doggy 

treats. There will be homemade 

lavender products, local honey, jam 

and delicious food products as well. 

You could outfit yourself with locally 

made jewellery, scarves, artsy purses 

or fashion accessories. Crocheted 

items and local photographs will also 

be available for sale along with 


emergency medical help to stabilize the 

patient(s) and ensure the safety of the 

emergency scene until professional help 

arrives. 

Who are these First Responders? 

They are volunteers, many of whom 

have had first-hand experience needing 

medical help urgently. First Responders 

realize that in order to count on 

immediate medical assistance in the 

South Shuswap, someone has to do the 

job. They have committed themselves 

to learning to provide the quickest and 

most knowledgeable emergency 

medical care to anyone in their 

community. 

Maintaining a network of First 

Responders throughout the South 


Shuswap is important to our goal of 

minimal emergency response time. Our 

area extends from the Squilax bridge, 

through Sorrento, Blind Bay, Eagle 

Bay, White Lake, Tappen, Sunnybrae, 

Skimikin Lake, and Notch Hill. The 

area is large and we need new First 

Responders in all areas. Please consider 

being someone your community can 

count on for emergency medical help. 

No previous first aid experience is 

necessary.

Spring Health & Safety Tips for 

Families 

Spring has finally arrived! Which 

means it's time to take on all those 

Spring cleaning chores you've been 

putting aside all winter. It's also the 

perfect time to do a few safety checks 

to help keep your children and family 

healthy and safe. 

1. Replace the Batteries in your 

Smoke and Carbon Monoxide 

Detectors 

If you didn't replace the batteries at 

the start and end daylights savings now 

is a good time to do it. Check and 

make sure they are working and 

remember to test them monthly as 

well. 

2. Clean out the Medicine Cabinet 

Check the expiry date on all the 

medicines in your cabinet. Dispose of 

any expired medicine or left over 

prescriptions. Use the opportunity to 

also make sure you have adequate at 

home medicine-especially for children. 

A good rule of thumb is to keep what 

you need on hand to prevent a trip to 

emergency in the middle of the night. 

It is recommended you have children's 

Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for pain 

and reducing a fever. And an 

antihistamine such as Benadryl for 

allergic reactions. 

3. Do a Car Seat Check 

Checking your child's car seat to 

make sure it still fits and is installed 

properly is another thing that you 

should be doing much more often than 

when you are doing your spring 

cleaning, but it is a good time to think 

about it all the same. Is your infant 

ready to move into the next stage seat? 

Is your child ready to move up to a 

booster seat? Has your car seat reached 

it's expiry date?

Canadian Indie Folk-Rock Superstar 

On April 15th, Canadian Indie Folk-Rock Superstar Joel 

Plaskett and his band Emergency will play in Salmon Arm at 

the Salmar Classic Theatre at 7:30pm. Joel will be on tour 

across the country to promote his new album, Scrappy 

Happiness; ten songs that he has written in ten weeks, each 

one featured on CBC Radio 3. It is an ambitious project that 

combines the best of both worlds - using a decades old 

approach to getting music to the public quickly and taking 

advantage of new technology to communicate and interact 

with audiences. Plaskett will document the process through 

social media with vlogs, twitter and online chats, which will 

be available at www.cbc.ca/joelplaskett. 

Joel hails from Nova Scotia, where he has been a pop icon 

for over a decade, winning many awards including a Juno, 

two Canadian Folk Music Awards and numerous East Coast 

Music Awards, plus two Polaris prize nominations. In 2009, 

he opened for Paul McCartney in Halifax and in May 2011, 

he became the first artist ever to reach one million plays on 

CBC Radio 3. He writes catchy, infectious, lyrical rock and 

roll tunes that fill one with instant joy.

The Pleasures of Quilting and Fibre 

In April each year 

there is a gathering 

of enthusiastic 

quilters and fibre 

artists at Sorrento 

Centre, where they 

meet to work on a 

new project or 

technique and share 

their love of textiles. 

This year there are 

three workshops for 

the participants to choose from: 

Lynn Knox will be teaching "Stars by the Lake", a beautiful 

traditional quilt in four fabrics. Lynn is well-known throughout 

the Okanagan as an engaging teacher who will delight you with 

her good humour and great quilting tips ... and who is also 

known for her great desserts! 

Dianne Jansson will be leading a workshop where the 

participants will arrive knowing only that they need to bring 

certain fabrics . . . Dianne has created a "Mystery Quilt" called 

"Summer Gardens" which will be unveiled as the quilters work 

from one step to the next in the construction, without knowing 

exactly what it will look like until its completion at the end of 

the week. Dianne Jansson is a very experienced and beloved 

quilting instructor whose warm encouragement and attention to 

detail is appreciated by all who have taken her courses. 

For those who like to think outside the box, Kathy Kinsella 

will be teaching "Swatch, Stitch &Stash" a workshop focusing 

on a variety of fibre art techniques. Participants will learn to 

make their own unique fabric, create machine wrapped cords 

and sticks, fibre art beads, silk fusion, needle felting and thread 

lace. There will be flexibility in the samples created ... and 

they will be made in a format that will allow them to be 

compiled into a delightful journal that will be enjoyed for its 

esthetics as well as its value as a reference tool. This workshop 

will appeal to those who are itching to dip their toes in the fibre 

art pond as well as those who are already paddling. Kathy 

excels in encouraging her students to "let go and have fun" 

creating unique art quilts. 

This year the Quilt Week participants will check-in on April 

15 and depart on April 20th, after experiencing four days of 

instruction and creativity. This fun-filled event is a retreat 

format with delicious meals, comfortable private rooms and 

lots of space to spread out to create a masterpiece. Registration 

is limited in each workshop so you are encouraged to register 

as soon as possible by phone (250-675-2421) or by checking 

out the course information and registration at

Time for some Spring Cleaning? 

A Church bulletin blooper read: 

“There will be a spring cleaning sale in 

the church basement next week. So 

bring all those things not worth keeping 

around the house, and ladies don’t 

forget to bring your husbands” 

Well, it is that amazing time of year 

when you can go for a walk whistling 

with mud covered shoes. Mark Twain 

said this about spring: “It's spring fever. 

That is what the name of it is. And 

when you've got it, you want - oh, you 

don't quite know what it is you do want, 

but it just fairly makes your heart ache, 

you want it so!” 

What are you wanting this Spring? 

After the cold and grey of winter, when 

the sun of spring begins to change our 

landscape we too cannot help but be 

changed. It is a great time of year as it 

reminds us that after every winter there 

is always hope of a spring, of new life, 

new opportunities, and a new future. 

Spring sets in our hearts anticipation for 

something. 

Virgil Kraft says: “Spring shows what 

God can do with a drab and dirty 

world”. The good news today is that the 

same God that changes Winter to 

Spring has the ability to change your 

life from what ever it is today to 

something with more light, more 

warmth, and more hope for a different 


future. In nature God uses the Sun as a 

catalyst, in our lives he uses his Son 

Jesus to do the same. In our homes if 

we desire to have the sun warm us and 

bring life to our plants we have to 

remove the shades, we have to allow 

the sun access. If we want real change 

in our lives, we must do the same. We 

have to remove some things that are 

blocking the Son, we must make our 

own hearts available and open to him. 

We do this when we involve ourselves 

in a local church, when we read the 

Bible, and when we pray. So, if you 

want to know how to do some spring 

cleaning for your life this year, get rid 

of all the excuses that would keep you 

from letting the light of the Son, Jesus 

touch your heart. 

We would like to express a sincere and heartfelt THANK YOU for 

the kindness and generosity shown to us since the loss of our home to 

fire. We are forever grateful to all those that have helped us 

through this tragedy. Sincerely, Ted and Karen

Congratulations to the winners in the third annual Sorrento Wave Short Story Contest! 

1st place: The Child (below) by Karen Beggs of Salmon Arm, BC. 

2nd place: Don’t Take Your Gun to Town by Ken Stengler of Salmon Arm, BC 

In that surreal moment when the 

car skidded off the road, my father’s 

warning echoed in my ears. I’d 

laughed it off at the time, teasing him 

that he was always looking around 

corners for conspiracies or disasters. 

Although he’s been dead for fifteen 

years now, when I saw that terrifying 

disturbance in the southern sky, that 

roiling mass of black and purple clouds 

spinning my way, his words came back 

to me as clearly as if he were sitting in 

the passenger seat beside me. 

“It will happen. You mark my words, 

sooner or later. Just make sure you’re 

ready when it does.” 

I engaged four-wheel drive and 

backed out of the ditch, turned a rapid 

U-turn, and headed home, fast. 

That was several months ago. The 

sky, still a deep disturbing purple, now 

was placid as though nothing had 

happened and this was just its normal 

way of being. 

Now I watched, as I had so many 

times, as clothes disintegrated, followed 

a micro-second after by the bodies they 

contained. Nothing was left except dust 

and wind mixing together in a frenzied 

maelstrom of human and air. I felt bile 

rising in my throat, tasting the 

bitterness, knowing I couldn’t change 

the outcome. I had lost count of the 

times I had replayed this recording, 

perhaps the last record of humanity, 

both on the machine and in my mind. I 

think I suffered more than they had, yet 

I was physically untouched. 

The screen flickered, blurring the 

images that I had forced myself to view 

over and over. The generator hacked as 

though it had a terminal case of 

bronchitis. The fuel gauge hovered on 

empty. I shut the generator down, 

wanting to be in control of this final 

severing. The motor died with a 

stuttering cough. Guess I should have 

stored the spare fuel a bit closer. 

Then the child cried. 

The wind had blown her in to me last 

night, coming from nowhere, maybe 

going there too. Just a small footfall in 

the dust. I didn’t actually hear her 

coming, but felt the displacement in the 

air that another presence makes. I’d 

scooped her up and brought her in here. 

A small island in the middle of 

rumpled bedclothes, she rubbed her 

clenched knuckles around grimerimmed 

eyes, spreading the rivulets of 

blackened tears that flowed down her 

emaciated cheeks. I couldn’t imagine 

how she had survived. I knelt, and 

wiped her face with an equally grubby 

sleeve. She looked at me with ancient 

eyes that had seen too much. 

Here is where I have been living for 

uncounted weeks; a dug out home into 

the hill at the back of my property. I’d 

always wanted an underground home, 

but instead had lived conventionally, as 

most people did. Then several years 

ago I had decided to dig. I couldn’t 

afford machinery; didn’t want the 

attention it would bring either. I dug a 

little most days, in between work, and 

other obligations on the far side of the 

hill facing away from neighbours. I 

thinned out selected fir trees for 

supports as I dug deeper and wider. At 

first it seemed an impossible venture, 

but as time went on, my survival 

‘home’ began to take a recognizable 

shape. Each payday I bought 

something for my underground 

endeavour. I bought walling material, 

flooring too, and preservatives for both. 

I decided double doors would be smart, 

and the two small windows were 

double-glazed against both heat and 

cold. Mostly it turned out to be deep 

cold. After I had dealt with damp 

problems as best as I could, I bought 

cheap but solid used furniture; a table, a 

couple of chairs, a double-sized bed, 

and some shelving to stock with nonperishable 

foods. I canned and stored 

my own water. I had candles, matches, 

and an old wood stove vented through 

the ceiling at the back wall. 

Initially the whole thing was just an 

adventure, an aging kid playing 

pioneer. Back in the ‘cold war’ days 

we’d often talked about the possibility 

of ‘taking to the woods’, but that had 

never materialized. The idea must have 

remained processing, until I decided to 

make my survival house, now too late 

to share it with anybody. Even my dog 

had gone. 

Just when I had decided that there 

was no point in going on alone; just as I 

had picked up the gun and 

experimentally grazed the muzzle over 

my temple, she arrived. The old twelve 

-gauge stood once more, leaning 

slightly against the wall, perhaps 

mocking me for my weakness, or 

maybe saluting me for my strength. 

She didn’t seem to be able to talk. In 

my ‘before’ life I had worked in 

education, specializing in non-verbal 

children. Hopefully that would help me 

now. I would allow her time, if time 

was allotted to us. 

I held out my hand and she reached 

out and took it. We walked to the 

living area. I laid some food out on the 

table, and unsealed a Mason jar of 

sterilized water. We ate in a silence 

that hugged us like a blanket, she 

forcing food into her mouth as if she 

had never eaten before. 

Next morning I left her sleeping and 

went outside. I always hoped for 

something, yet each day brought the 

same dismal, glacial landscape. The 

neighbourhood houses had gone, as had 

my old one. A few shredded stumps 

had survived, and rocks were laid bare 

like bones strewn in a desert. Only the 

unremitting wind broke the disturbing 

silence. No wonder my gun seemed 

inviting. 

She stayed inside at first, then one 

morning she indicated that she wanted 

to go outside. I opened the inner door, 

shutting it behind us before opening the 

outer one. The usual drift of icy dust 

had accumulated on the doorstep. I 

wondered what the dust was composed 

of. Maybe Mr. Collinson from down 

the road, mixed with his herd of Red 

Angus cows. Maybe my dog. 

Dull grey, both in the overcast sky, 

and the dirty ice-covered ground, 

spread thickly like an army blanket. 

She scanned in every direction, then 

lost interest and went back inside. I 

stayed out and set off on my daily walk. 

As usual I came back without seeing a

living thing. 

Several days went by, then one 

morning she wouldn’t get out of bed, 

rolling restlessly, and throwing off her 

covers. As she flung out a bare arm, I 

noticed that it was covered in a deep 

maroon rash. I uncovered her other 

arm, and the rash was there too, with 

raised weeping sores. I felt her 

forehead, which was hot and moist. 

She tried to open her eyes, but the rash 

had gummed her eyelids closed. I 

gently soaked her eyes open with a 

damp cloth, and placed a cool cloth on 

her forehead. Although her eyes were 

now open, she just stared, unseeing. I 

had a stock of bandages, antiseptic 

wipes, and a few morphine pills left 

over from a back injury. None of these 

seemed useful here. I slipped a little 

water in her mouth before she turned 

her head away. I sat and talked to her.

The sound of my droning voice seemed 

to comfort her, and she slept. I slept 

soundly beside her that night. 

When I woke the next morning she 

had gone. Her side of the bed was cold. 

I called to her, not knowing her name, 

knowing she wouldn’t answer. I 

opened the door to the outside. There 

in the dust I saw small bare footprints 

heading out into the frigid grey. I 

followed them until they disappeared, 

blown away into nothingness by the 

incessant wind. I searched as far as I 

dared, but knew that I would not find 

her. 

So now I am alone again, probably 

forever, though forever might not be 

too long. I have two weeks of 

medication left; something I never 

thought too much about when I was 

stockpiling food and survival gear. 

Maybe soon I won’t have any use for 

the shot gun after all.
