"After a decade of discussion I am really glad we have broken ground on the new fire hall,” said Andy Shadrack, RDCK Director for Electoral Area D. That sentiment is shared by Kaslo Mayor Greg Lay who said: “Let’s ‘git-r-done!” The Regional District of Central Kootenay awarded the contract for phase one of the project to ENCAN Construction of Kelowna. ENCAN's construction foreman, Greg Stone of Rossland, has contracted two local heavy equipment contractors for excavation work and has hired three local area carpenters. Mr. Stone said that ENCAN will make every effort to hire local workers. He also intends on purchasing much of the required building supplies locally. The emergency services building will be constructed in two phases. Phase one, which is forecast to be complete in March 2014, will take the building to 'lock up’ (framing, flooring, walls, roofing, piping, electrical service, and doors). The remainder of the project (phase two) will include the installation of Gyprock, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, heating, finishing, air supply, furnishings, etc., with each element being bid out separately and the works being managed by a project superintendent hired by the RDCK. The RDCK is excited about this project and will keep the public posted on its progress. - 30 - For more information: Terry Swan Regional Fire Chief Regional District of Central Kootenay 250.352.1507 Photo on next page… Representing Diverse Communities in the Kootenays | 1.800.268.7325 | www.rdck.bc.ca Page 1 2 Left to right: Mike Penczak - Carpenter; Greg Stone - ENCAN Construction Superintendent; Franz Kocher - Captain KFD; Greg Lay - Kaslo Mayor; Orion Cooper - Captain KFD; Andy Shadrack - RDCK Director Area D; Doug Yee - Assistant Chief KFD;Jim Holland - Kaslo Councillor; Larry Badry - Chief KFD Representing Diverse Communities in the Kootenays | 1.800.268.7325 | www.rdck.bc.ca Page 2 3 WORK ORDER 3101727 LOGIN NOTICE CLIENT Kaslo, Village of PO NUMBER QUOTATION ID Kaslo Master Bid PROJECT Drinking Water SUBMITTED BY PROJECT INFO [none] COC NUMBER Req Receipt Details: RECEIVED / TEMP Oct-30-13 09:50 / 8°C LOGGED IN Oct-30-13 10:24 LAB LOCATION Kelowna LOGGED IN BY Tanya Howard PROJECT MGR Jennifer Shanko, AScT REPORT DUE Nov-06-13 17:00 (5 day TAT) Sample Condition Summary: Broken Container(s) No No Sampling Date(s) No Incorrect Cont./Pres.

Ph. 250 352 3433 [email protected] discovernelson.com Scotiabank MS Bike Tour August 20-21, 2016 The tour starts in New Denver… Slocan Valley… New Denver- Founded upon the discovery of silver in the mountains adjacent to Slocan Lake in 1891, prospectors from the United States came flooding up to the New Denver region in 1892 to stake their claims, and gather their riches. New Denver quickly grew to a population of 500 people with 50 buildings. In 1895 this growing community built government offices and supply houses for the Silvery Slocan Mines. “A Simple Curve” was filmed in and around the Slocan Valley and was debuted in 2005. The story is of a young man born to war resister parents. War Resisters- In 1976 as many as 14,000 Americans came to the Slocan Valley in an attempt to avoid the Vietnam War. About half of those who made the move were self-proclaimed war resisters, many of whom settled in the Kootenay Region. Nikkei Internment Memorial Centre This exclusive interpretive centre features the Japanese-Canadian internment history of New Denver during the Second World War. The camp is said to have held close to 1500 internees during the war. The memorial centre opened in 1994, which showcases several buildings including the community hall and three restored tar paper shacks with Japanese gardens. A well known Canadian to come out of one of these local institutions is Dr.

  • Geofile 1997-02 Slocan Mining Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14)
    GeoFile 1997-02 Slocan Mining Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14) By: B.N. Church (P.Eng.) and L.D. Jones (P.Geo.), 1997 Originally created as a web article in 1997, this document was re-released, with slight modifications, as a GeoFile in 2019. Abstract The Slocan map area of southeastern British Columbia contains 271 documented mineral occurrences, including 125 in the Slocan City area and 123 in the Slocan Camp area. The area is within the Selkirk Mountains and includes the communities of New Denver, Silverton, and Slocan City on the shores of Slocan Lake (Figure 1). Figure 1: Mineral Occurrences of the Slocan Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14) BC Geological Survey Mining History The Slocan area is one of the oldest mining camps in the province which flourished after the turn of the century and has continued to produce intermittently ever since. The history in the West Kootenays dates back to the 1820s when the Bluebell deposit (082FNE043), near Riondel on Kootenay Lake was discovered. Active exploration began around 1865. In 1883, Thomas Hammil located the Lulu and Spring claims (082FNE148) at Ainsworth. In the late 1880’s, Jim Brennan, a prospector working west of Ainsworth, collected some high grade silver samples which sparked considerable interest in this new and virtually unexplored area. After initial interest at Sandon, prospectors extended their range of exploration to the south and west, discovering several deposits containing appreciable gold on Memphis Creek and locating the Dayton claim (082FNW173) in 1893 near Slocan City. During this period, the sustained mining activity throughout the Slocan area provided the incentive for the Canadian Pacific Railway to extend their line south and east from Nakusp to Kaslo and Cody in 1895, and connect Slocan City with the Nelson line in 1897.

The rail- Modes: hike, bike, dirtbike, way trail is ideal for cycling, cross-country skiing, jogging, or simply walking in surroundings horseback, X-C ski both stunning and soothing. As with many railways, the Rosebery Railway was built along the valley bottom corridor and travels through extensive natural habitat for birds, fish, deer, rodents and larger mammals, including bears and moose. From Nakusp, the railway climbs at a 2% grade up to Summit Lake, with the first six kilometres situated along the edges of the town of Na- kusp, rural acreages and the Nakusp Centennial Golf Course. The cover photo is taken from a viewpoint at GPS Point 3 on the map. As the valley narrows, the trail climbs above Box Lake, affording the traveler a superb view of the Box Lake marsh. The trail passes through re- cent logging blocks that demonstrate current forest practices of smaller clearcuts to reduce the impact on the ecosystem. Much of what was logged is second growth timber following logging in the valley bottoms early in the 1900s. On approaching the shores of Summit Lake, at 765 metres elevation, the surroundings change. The ancient mountains around the Lake are home to Mountain goats, bears, deer and elk herds. Summit Lake is stocked with Rainbow trout and provides great fun for sport fishers from May through September.
