Family, friends and supporters of Russell cee OS IO Heir ecto from T Ht held o candlelight vigil gunide Clay Castle workshop for the handicap ped Tuesday night to pri it transfer of Russell and 54 other handicap- quille Institution in K \ to Glendak By RON NORMAN Editor A candlelight vigil was held Tues day night outside Castlegar’s Clay Castle to protest the transfer of 55 handicapped patients from Tran- quille Institution in Kamloops to Glendale Lodge near Victoria. About 20 people stood in the rain holding candles for nearly a half hour, including family, friends and supporters of Russell Grunerud, a 24-year-old cerebral palsy victim who was one of the first patients airlifted to Glendale on Sunday. Eight more patients were trans ferred Monday and another 10 Tuesday. The remainder of the 55 patients will be transferred later this month. The local vigil was one of a number held around the province to send a protest message to the Mini stry of Human Resources. The ministry says the patients are too medically fragile to re-enter the community and that it is more economical to move them to Glen dale Lodge. The patients’ relatives are argu: ing that the ministry is reneging on an earlier agreement to place the patients in group homes near their families. Russell Grunerud’s mother, Gerry, said plans were in full swing to have her son live in a group home in Castlegar with two or three others when the ministry suddenly Lodge near Victoria. Vigil was one of a number held around the province to protest the move CosNews Phote by Cheryl Colderbonk d he must live in Glendale, an institution with more than 300 handicapped patients. Grunerud said in an interview Tuesday that she and Norma Coll- ier, president of the Kootenay Society for the Handicapped, drove seven hours Saturday afternoon to Kamloops in order to take part in a protest Sunday morning outside Tranquille. The two joined four other Koot- enay residents and 50 other people to block the main gate to the in stitution. Protesters won a victory by halting 20 of Sunday's planned 25 transfers. However, Grunerud and Collier lost a personal battle when they learned Russell was one of the five transferred. “We were devastated,” said Coll ier He and four other Tranquille patients were taken in an unmarked van down a gravel back road to a plane ready for take off to Victoria while Grunerud and Collier were at the front gate. Grunerud said supporters who saw the van leave “thought it was a laundry truck.” She said the van sped over a “bumpy back lane”. “It was at least 60 khm over a washboard road,” said Collier, who questioned why the ministry would transfer “so-called medically fra gile” patients in such a manner. Grunerud sgid she was not in- formed that Russell had reached Glendale Lodge until late Tuesday — more than two days after he was transferred. Collier said Sunday's continued on poge AZ COMMUNITY COMPLEX Master plan unveiled By CasNews Staff ‘The City of Castlegar's new master plan for the Community Complex space for an aquatic centre and bali field, but not for rodeo grounds. The plan, which was unveiled at Castlegar council Tuesday, also inc ludes a circular dri y i able to find something in the area” to use for the rodeo grounds. He did not say what. Meanwhile, work on the plan contin. ues. MacBain said detailed cost esti mates must still be worked out “The overall plan is going to be broken down into various projects,” he a track around the soccer field, and the new chamber of commerce office. The plan was developed by Castlegar landscape architect Nancy Felde. Ald. Bob MacBain, chairman of the parks and recreation committee, said the rodeo grounds are not included in the plans for developing the complex. The Castlegar Selkirk Lions Club has held ite annual rodeo on the property adjacent to the coniplex for the last two years, land now earmarked for the new ball field. The Lions had asked counei) to set aside the site as a permanent rodeo grounds. However, MacBain said the recrea tion committee felt the rodeo takes place only once a year, “whereas the ball field can be used much more often.” He said the committee also felt the ball field could not be used for the rodeo. But MacBain said the city “may be Slocan Valley plan in final stages By ADRIAN CHAMBERLAIN Staff Writer The Regional District of Central Kootenay will vote Oct 27 on a motion to send the controversial Slocan Valley plan to Vietoria for approval. If the plan is accepted by the provincial government with few major alterations, the regional district will likely approve it, and the final version of the Slocan Valley plan will come inte effect, according to Slocan- Maygp -Dave Barclay, who is also chairman of the Sloean Valley Elected Representatives Committee. But if the pr ial gov d, such as the ball field, aquatic centre, landsc@ping and the parking fot. : Each project will have a separate cost estimate and budget, so they can be tackled individually “We'll know just exactly how much (money) is required,” MacBain said. He added that Felde should have figures on the cost of each project within three weeks. As well, council was told Tuesday that the newly-formed Castlegar Gyro Club is willing to help develop one of the complex projects. Gyro Club president Jim Marshall said in a letter to éouncil his club “would be very happy to take part in the softball portion of the complex (plan.)” MacBain explained that the Gyro Club “is looking for a major project similar to the Rotary or Kiwanis.” MacBain accepted the offer and said the parks and recreation committee will meet with club representatives as sonn as Felde completes the cost breakdown for the various projects In other parks and recreation news Ald. Bob Pakula expressed concern about the condition of the playing fields within the city. “They're all in very poor shape and should be updated,” he said, adding, “A lot of ballplayers got hurt this year" because of the fields. The committee will discuss what will be done to the fields and return to council with a recommendation The committee also directed city staff to investigate the feasibility of constructing individual change cubicles at Bob Brandson Pool In addition, the city moved to support the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League in its bid to move from Junior B to Junior A status. In other council news the city agreed with Fire Chief Bob Mann’s suggestion that it combine the $8,000 budgeted this year for new firefighting clothing with $8,000 to be set aside in next year’s budget. Protective sePvies committee chair man Ald. Bob Pakula said by combining the money the clothing could be bought all at once, instead of half this year and half next. Barclay says the rewrittem’plan = a joint regional provincial project — answers concerns of the Chamber of Mines of Eastern B.C., and of Slocan Forest Products. both of whom met with the regional district to hash out disagreements over the original draft.

But New Denver RCMP and the chairman of the loca) anti-plan group say the incident was simply a typical bout of fisticuffs following a late night party One of the letters, which appeared in the Sept. 5 edition of the Arrow Lakes News, says:”. . .a plan supporter was beaten up (last week) because of his support for the plan.” Another letter charges that a New Denver man was awakened at 2 a.m. to find someone damaging his truck. The letter says a fight followed, and “eventually the imtruder called his buddies from a nearby party.
