Meet the amazing francophones 

and francophiles 

The West Kootenay’s Francophone Association (AFKO) 

presents Franc Ouest, a new podcast featuring intimate 

and captivating stories from some of the region’s most 

extraordinary francophones and francophiles. Even 

though the official launch will take place on June 24, the 

first four episodes are available now on Apple Podcast & 

Spotify! Listen to the podcast now to take a journey into 

the heart of the West Kootenay and be charmed by the 

inspiring people who live there. 

Season 1: Francophonie Sauvage (Wild Francophonie) 

The first season, Francophonie Sauvage, promises compelling, 

original and unfiltered content. The guests of 

the podcast host Patrick Lac speak about their unique 

experiences and the reasons why they are inspirational 

figures for many people. Each episode is, for the host, “a 

profound encounter with people who have lived a lot and 

have a lot to teach us”. Throughout the first season, meet 

inspiring people who will captivate you, like Mia Noblet, 

world slackline champion; Alex Pilon, Nelson’s LGBTQ+ 

ambassador and drag queen, Stéphanie Gauvin, renowned 

painter from Rossland; Sonia Ratté, and chef-entrepreneur 

of the popular La Baguette bakery in Revelstoke. 

Franc Ouest is not just about amazing French people 

and francophiles! Several controversial but important topics 

are discussed throughout the podcast episodes: gender 

diversity, Indigenous and racialized peoples, extreme 

sports, youth entrepreneurship and so many more! 

Erika 

announcements 

Moving On 

Pennywise would like to thank 

Erika Bird for the 20 years she 

contributed to the success of Pennywise 

and its publications. 

She has held our various magazines to a 

literary standard we hope to maintain. 

She has created interesting and accurate 

content for our visitor magazines, 

researched, compiled, extrapolated, documented, organized, 

managed distribution and liaised with our clients. 

She has laughed with, and at us. Her sense of humour and 

wit added to the general joy of our office. 

Erika has filled a niche – quality control – that has made us all 

proud of the products we deliver. 

Her sons, the new owners of Eric’s Meat Market in Kaslo, 

will now be beneficiaries of this talented woman, who is 

moving on to help as their ‘Right Hand Mom’. 

Her hard work, creativity and ideas will be of great value to 

her pups; we know, as they were of great value to us. 

We wish you all the best, Erika! 

Patrick Lak, AFKO 

Stepping In 

Pennywise would like to announce 

Tonya Lefebvre 

as the successful applicant for the position 

that Erika is leaving. 

Tonya brings to our team years of experience 

in design, and a calmness (she appears to 

share that trait with Erika) as well as great 

knowledge of the written word. 

She is well known locally for her past 

publication of The Kaslo Crow. 

She is an artist with diverse interests 

including music, painting and 

design – all of which we feel will 

give great value to our team 

as we transition around Erika’s 

departure. 

Welcome Tonya. We are happy 

to have you on our team!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANADA! 

All in the Family was the top TV series, Captain & Tennille led 

the charts for weeks with Love will keep us together. 

A 22lb bag of Robin Hood Flour on sale was $2.98, 

the movie Jaws was released June 20 – the same day the 

first edition of Pennywise hit the stands. 

For 47 years we have been bringing buyers and sellers together in 

our West Kootenay communities. Millions and millions of dollars 

have moved through the Pennywise. We have published hundreds 

of visitor magazines and distributed millions of copies all over our 

BC, Alberta and the neighbouring US states, helping the West Kootenay 

and Kaslo grow into the vacation destination it has become. 

From the compugraphic machine in 1975 to our current M1 Mac 

mini, we have seen and adjusted to fundamental technological 

changes in the tools we use and the procedures we follow 

– computers, the internet, cell phones. With our social media 

apps, communities have been able to expand way beyond their 

natural borders. 

It is an interesting time… 

As we field calls and emails from people and outlets looking for one 

or more of the various ‘paper’ publications we offer, it is rewarding 

to see the Pennywise and our other print products cleared off the 

stands regularly. The piles of visitor magazines, vacation maps, farm & 

food directories, seniors magazines, that are stored in my basement 

dwindle at an alarming rate (we have already printed the Spring 

2022 Go & Do twice). I wonder – who are these thousands of people 

who are snapping up our paper products? We can hardly keep up on 

the deliveries, and it makes us happy. 

We look back and remind each other of how publishing was an 

intensely manual process… we look forward, wondering what the 

next technology we learn will do for us. Will it make production 

more efficient? Will it connect us better with our readers? 

The best of the old, like answering phones and mailing the Pennywise 

directly to you, we have kept. We have made some adjustments 

during the tough times to reduce costs, but ultimately they have 

helped make us stonger. We eagerly anticipate the new opportunities 

that will arise to serve you all, and wonder where the paper/ 

digital trail will take us in the next 30 years. 

Happy Birthday 

to us… and thank YOU for reading us and shopping here.

Demi 

Play it safe around our reservoirs 

Play it safe when boating or swimming this summer. Our reservoirs can be enjoyable recreation 

destinations, provided certain common sense safety precautions are observed. 

sponsored by 

❤❤ 

Demi is a lovely girl who was brought in as an owner surrender. She 

came from a home with another cat but we are finding that she would 

prefer to be the only queen of the castle. She enjoys pets and rubbing 

up on your leg. She often is found on the cat tower in the outdoor 

room so would likely enjoy a catio in her new home.

Because the water in our reservoirs is utilized for flood control and the production of electricity, reservoir 

water levels can rise or fall daily. Reservoir users should be aware that changing water levels can conceal 

submerged hazards, particularly in shallow water near the shoreline. It is important that visitors be 

aware of these potential dangers and take precautions to stay safe. Canadian Hydrographic Charts are an 

excellent reference for boaters and are available at www.charts.gc.ca. 

Boating, fishing and swimming above or below a dam or generating station can be very dangerous. 

For your own safety and the safety of those with you, obey all warning signs and stay out of restricted 

areas. 

Boaters must comply with all Canadian Coast Guard regulations and practice safe boating at all times. 

Have fun – but be careful!

Summer E-bike raffle 

Nelson CARES Society is hosting a summer fundraising raffle for a Pedego 

Interceptor electric bike. All proceeds of the raffle go to support the Kootenay Seniors 

Transportation Program. 

Kootenay Seniors, a Program of Nelson CARES Society, works to support seniors to 

remain in their homes for as long as possible, living with dignity and joy and being an 

integral part of their community. Kootenay Seniors has two essential programs: Transportation 

Program and Home Support. 

The Kootenay Seniors Transportation Program has worked diligently to meet the 

ever-growing need for safe, affordable, and reliable transportation for seniors in Nelson 

and the surrounding communities. The funds gained by the Pedego e-bike raffle will support 

the transportation program’s growth, and boost its expansion. 

Mike Cylde from Pedego Canada shares “As a part of this amazing vibrant community, 

I am very happy to be able to support Nelson CARES in their work to help vulnerable 

members of our city. What awesome work they do, helping us move towards more 

inclusive spaces and recognizing housing is essential for everyone. Thank you, Nelson 

CARES!” 

Tickets are only $10 each and are available on the website at www.nelsoncares.ca or 

in-person at Hall Street Place 205 Hall Street and at the Kootenay Seniors new admin 

office at 805 Nelson Ave. when the office opens later in June. Tickets are also available at 

Buddy’s Place on Baker Street. With a maximum of 2000 tickets sold the chances of riding 

away in style are pretty high. 

The bright blue Pedego Interceptor has a 52 Volt battery and 10.5Ah motor uses the 

same advanced lithium-ion cells as an electric car. An 8-speed drivetrain provides smooth 

shifting and easy pedalling with 5 levels of pedal assist. Those pesky 

Nelson hills will bother you no more. The draw will take place at 

the Kootenay Seniors office at 805 Hall Street and on their Facebook 

page on Oct 1st at 4:00 PM. The winner will be contacted by 

phone and/or email. 

Nelson CARES and Kootenay Seniors would like to thank everyone 

who purchases a ticket and especially Mike Clyde for his support 

of this raffle.

A new exhibition at the Kootenay Gallery, Vestigial Trail, 

features the drawings and written work of Jim Holyoak. It 

opens June 23 and runs till August 20, 2022. 

All his life, Jim Holyoak has drawn and contemplated 

the monstrous, and in recent years he has voraciously 

read books on Monster Theory, the scholarly study of 

monsters. Whether a ‘monster’ is perceived as wonderful 

or terrible, wrathful or protective, human or nonhuman, 

is a distinction made in the eye of the beholder. Monsters 

are speculative beings that simultaneously don’t, did or 

might exist. They are the unknown, the misunderstood and 

the profoundly different. There are monstrous situations, 

behaviours and attitudes, monstrous feelings, places and 

times. Thinking about monsters is an exercise in alterity 

– the study of otherness – and our resultant capacities for 

empathy, cruelty and indifference – making strange and 

making kin. ‘Othering’ that which is different from oneself 

is a process that might otherwise be called ‘Monstering.’ 

The Kootenay Gallery of Art is located at 120 Heritage 

Way across from the Castlegar Regional Airport, just past 

the Doukhobor Discovery Centre.

Would your acreage benefit from soil amendment? 

Mercer Celgar is looking for landowners with 2 or more acres within 55 km 

that would benefit from using their Celgrow soil amendment. Pastures and 

hay fields are good options. 

Mercer Celgar will cover the costs of a Qualified Professional performing 

soil sampling, obtaining government authorization and delivery costs of Celgrow 

soil amendment based on access with a large truck/pup combination. 

Acreage should be able to accommodate at least 6 truck/pup loads. The two 

major components of Celgrow are individual wood fibres lost from the pulping 

process and surplus bacteria from the wastewater biological treatment 

facility. Wood fibres enhance soil moisture retention and bacteria are a good 

source of soil nutrients. The landowner is responsible for spreading and incorporating 

Celgrow into their soil.

Freshet season to last until late July 

With a significant amount of mountain snow pack still remaining, 

according to the BC Ministry of Forests – River Forecast Centre, residents 

of the Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) can expect 

freshet season to be extended to late July. The snow pack is snow on the 

ground in mountainous areas that persists until the arrival of warmer 

weather. Across the province the average snow pack is well above normal. 

Typically by this time of year, three quarters of the accumulated 

snow pack has melted; however, due to the abnormally cooler temperatures 

throughout April and May it has been delayed. Currently, 

the average snow pack in BC is 198% of normal, while in the West 

Kootenay region, which includes the entire RDCK, snow pack is at 

215% of normal. This number indicates a continued enhanced risk 

from snowmelt related flooding, especially in combination with heavy 

rain. 

The RDCK remains under a High Streamflow Advisory. Earlier this 

week the BC River Forecast Centre downgraded the advisory from a 

Flood Watch Advisory. Most rivers, streams and creeks have risen to 

normal or above normal levels and are extremely vulnerable to heavy 

rainfall events. Residents are reminded to exercise extreme caution 

around rivers and creeks. 

Kootenay Lake is currently at 1751.45 ft. (533.84 metres) at Queen’s 

Bay. FortisBC has advised all residents that the lake level still has the 

potential to exceed 1752 feet. Go to www.fortisbc.com/lakelevel to 

access the hourly updated Kootenay Lake level. 

Environment Canada forecasts unsettled weather conditions 

throughout the RDCK over the next week with no sign of an extended 

heat event. However, a significant change in the forecast or thunderstorms 

along with heavy rainfall could result in localized floods. There 

are currently no Evacuation Alerts or Orders in the RDCK. On Tuesday, 

June 14 the RDCK removed the Evacuation Alert for the community 

of Six Mile near Nelson BC, as the risk of damage to the Duhamel 

Creek Orphan Dike structure has diminished.

Indigenous Internship Program 

Today, June 21st, in celebration of the National Indigenous 

Peoples’ Day, the Community Housing Transformation Centre is 

happy to introduce its Indigenous Internship Program. 

Across Canada, the Indigenous community housing sector faces 

the daily challenge of finding Indigenous individuals with training 

to lead their organizations. This lack of human resource capacity 

with appropriate cultural and technical knowledge is a significant 

obstacle to growing and maintaining Indigenous community 

housing. The Centre’s internship program is aimed directly at alleviating 

this situation. It will increase access to financial resources 

and support services including those of the Centre. 

Interns wanted -The Centre is looking for Indigenous applicants 

who are 30 years of age or less, recently graduated and interested 

in a career in community housing or already working in the 

sector and would like to further develop their skills. 

At the end of the internship, interns will bring new skills, education, 

and perspective back to their host organization or be 

equipped to seek out leadership opportunities in the sector. The 

Centre is also committed to opening at least one position within 

its own operations at the end of the first year of the program. 

Coach wanted - Coaching and support are critical components 

of the project. A full-time Indigenous coach with expertise in 

community-based housing will be responsible for implementing 

the program at the Centre. The coach will be available to provide 

culturally appropriate guidance to interns and will serve as a reference 

to help interns establish and achieve their individual professional 

development goals throughout the internship. 

To learn more about these opportunities, contact us at info@ 

centre.support.

Announcement 

Jack (Jackie) Frank Fletcher, 

August 24, 1936 – April 4, 

2020. Close friends and acquaintances 

of the Fletcher 

family are respectfully invited 

to attend a come & go 

memorial service for Jack 

to be held on July 2, 2022, 

between 1 and 3 pm at the 

J. B. Fletcher General Store, 

Ainsworth Hot Springs. 

Born in Kaslo, BC, and raised in Ainsworth, he was 

trademarked as the “baby” of the family by his 4 protective 

older sisters. Though honoured as the baby, 

that in no manner granted him any special treatment 

when it came to ensuring all of the siblings did their 

fair share of helping out at the family-owned and 

operated store. 

It was a life-long debate between the five Fletcher 

siblings on who spent more time doing such things 

as stocking shelves or hauling inventory up from 

the Ainsworth wharf. As Jack was the last remaining 

Fletcher, it is only fitting to host his memorial at the 

family beloved store and for it to act as the family and 

community anchor one final time.
