CKISS seeking new board member<br />
We’re looking for a new board member for the Central Kootenay<br />
Invasive Species Society (CKISS) board—someone who<br />
is interested in protecting the environment, working as a team<br />
member, and can make a two-year commitment. As a member<br />
of our board, you will attend quarterly board meetings, stand<br />
on a committee and join other board members in guiding the<br />
work of CKISS.<br />
For more information and to download an application, visit<br />
https://ckiss.ca. If you are not a member then register here<br />
and indicate your interest in the board. If you are already a<br />
member email or send in your application to info@ckiss.ca.<br />
The deadline to apply is Friday <strong>May</strong> 6, 2022, at 5 pm.<br />
Would your acreage benefit from soil amendment?<br />
Mercer Celgar is looking for landowners with 2 or more acres within 55 km<br />
that would benefit from using their Celgrow soil amendment. Pastures and<br />
hay fields are good options.<br />
Mercer Celgar will cover the costs of a Qualified Professional performing<br />
soil sampling, obtaining government authorization and delivery costs of Celgrow<br />
soil amendment based on access with a large truck/pup combination.<br />
Acreage should be able to accommodate at least 6 truck/pup loads. The two<br />
major components of Celgrow are individual wood fibres lost from the pulping<br />
process and surplus bacteria from the wastewater biological treatment<br />
facility. Wood fibres enhance soil moisture retention and bacteria are a good<br />
source of soil nutrients. The landowner is responsible for spreading and incorporating<br />
Celgrow into their soil.<br />
If interested, please contact Len Hewat<br />

SUDOKU<br />
Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken<br />
down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the<br />
numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box.<br />
Each number can appear only once in each row, column<br />
and box. You can figure out the order in which the<br />
numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already<br />
provided in the boxes. The more numbers<br />
you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!<br />
