From my press box, the view was spectacular. The dancing was superb, the gymnastics glowed like Swan Lake Ballet, and on the far bank the children were at it again, as during the opening, with their colored cards, cre- ating superlative multi- colored patterns and mosaics. ‘There were banners ev- erywhere, fluttering blues, and greens and yellows, but mostly red. There were fire- works and cannons that brought out the youthful curiosity in me. There were doves and girls, and a brass band of 700, and more girls with hundreds of hoops, all moving to the sound of Rachmaninov, Shos- k th, A and -Committee, amples of the best traditions. of the spirit of youth, sports,’ friendship and beauty.

Kjolberg, assistant director, hospital planning and construction division, HP, and Ian Smith and ‘James MacLoch of the health information office. Mr. Mair in his Slocan visit was Hospital and Health Care Society board chairman J.L. Irwin by the Minister. A sod-turning ceremony brought together community and health care representatives of Slocan, Silverton, New Denver, Hills, Nakusp and Nelson. It was the fruition of a two-year effort by hospital trustees, staff, doctors, architects, regional dis- trict representatives and architects. The 10-bed combined services lated the staffs of the Pavilion and Slocan Community Hospital and the health care society for bringing about the new community-operation of the 28-bed intermediate care facility. The Pavilion previously has been a government operation of the Human - Resources Ministry and then briefly of the Health Ministry. For perhaps a decade there had been a policy move to have such services community-based; it took considerable goodwill and community skill to bring about such a hospital-health it is d be under construction this month and available for service in 1981. It provides for a unique integra- tion of health and social services offering acute care, extended care, intermediate care, ambulatory care, community (public) health, medical clinic, health education, mental health, and fitness-for-health facilities. On the site is the Department of Human Resources building and the Pavilion Intermediate Care Facility, which the new construction will join. It provides also for the Homemakers Services offices and workrooms. Health care activities for the Slocain Valley are integrated with those of Nakusp to the north where there is already joint participation in physio- therapy and arthritis control programs and developing clinical laboratory service inter-connections. In the Minister's party was Robert E. McDermit, senior assistant deputy The new 10-bed structure at New Denver which will succeed the present building in use since 1925 will provide 10 beds for acute care, three of which have been arranged for extended care in event of demand, and will adjoin and be connected to the presént 28-bed Pavilion making use of combined, kitchen, boiler plant, emergency gen- eration and other facilities. : Architects are Fairbank and Associates, Nelson, appointed in Nov- ember /78. ; A medical office with two examin- ing rooms, offices for community (public) health and facilities for the Emergency Health services ambulance and attendants will be provided, A program to improve some code, dietary and other items at the Pavilion has also been planned, and financing negotiations are under way with Long-Term Care Programs and Central Mortgage and.

The Kootenay country of southeastern British Colum- bia is particularly good at catering to the popular fas- cination for'watching water in action. From a base point at either Nelson or Castlegar, dance of dams and power plants in just a short time. " Newest showpiece in the Kootenay dam picture is Brit- ish Columbia Hydro’s Koot- enay Canal project, which di- verts water from the Koot- enay River 10 miles (16 kilo- metres) downstream from Nelson, carries it along a three-mile (five-kilometre) canal to a $00,000-kilowatt capacity powerhouse, then re- tums the water to the river at Slocan. Some four-and-a-half million cubic yards (three- and-a-half million cubic me- tres) of rock and overburden excavated for the canal have been used to contour the sur- rounding landscape and pro- vide a base for tons of grass seed and some 20,000 seed- ling trees, Fish, deer and beaver ‘have been protected through various conservatio.: mea- sures. One-and-a-half-hour walking and bus tours of the Kootenay Canal project are offered from the beginning of May to the end of August. The history of power generation in the Kootenay goes back to 1898, when the the visitor can tour an abun- - first hydroelectric power was delivered over 32 miles (S1 kilometres) of transmission lines, at that time the longest on the continent. Use of the rapidly run- ning Kootenay River dates back 70 years. Using the natural power generated by Upper Bonnington Falls, 11 miles (18 kilometres) down- stream, the city of Nelson built its first power plant on the south side of the river. This was followed in very short order by the first of a series of plants built by Com- inco on the opposite side of the river together with a dam conforming to the horseshoe shape of the falls. _ In all, Cominco has built five dams ca the Kootenay, four of them within about a mile (a kilometre-and-a-half) of each other and the fifth 10 miles (16 kilometres) down- stream just west of Castlegar. All of the accompanying power plants are on the north side of the river; all dams and the rushing white water below may be clearly seen from Highway 3A. Over the years, viewpoints have been estab- lished at high spots so that each dam may be readily seen at close range and at leisure. An even better vantage : Kootenay dams attract visitors point for two of the Cominco dams is the new bridge built across the Kootenay River to Provide access to the Koot- enay Canal project. Showplace of the Comin- co power complex is the Wan- eta dam and power plant on the Pend-d'Oreille River 11 ‘miles (18 kilometres) south of Trail. Cominco ‘will arrange tours of Waneta — which in- cludes a spillway waterfall 45 feet (14 metres) higher than Niagara Falls — on weekdays during July and August. In‘sharp contrast to the river dams, whose purpose is power generation, are the giant storage dams: Duncan and Hugh Keenleyside. The former, an earthfill dam about 65 miles (105 kilometres) north of Nelson, is 130 feet (40 metres) high and 2,600 feet (780 metres) across, with a 28-mile-long (45-kilometre- long) reservoir. In addition to picnic area amenities, there is a swim- ming area and boat-launching ramp at Howser, but no guided tours. Hugh Keenleyside Dam, located five miles (eight kilo- metres) north of Castlegar and accessible via a free ferry to Robson, has its own navi- gation locks, with priority going to commercial traffic. The 170-foot (50-metre) dam backs up a reservoir that ex- tends 145 miles (230 kilo- metres) north to Revelstoke. There is a tourist attendant here in summer, but no guided tours.
