Economic centre sought

By RON NORMAN
Editor

Selkirk College is seeking to establish a permanent
economic development centre at its Castlegar campus.
Called the West Kootenay Enterprise D

The centre would also co-ordinate financial and
management.training for owner/operators, and upgrading
training for employees.

In addition, the ‘college would look at helping to

Centre, it would provide a variety of services for entrepren-
eurs.

The centre, which would cost $150,000 in its first year
and $87,600 every year thereafter, would be funded by the
Ministry of s Local and
Development Fund.

“The establishment of the enterprise development
centre will fill an important gap in the broad

operation.

The college cites its fire apparatus retrofitting
program, which it says is_well suited to private small—
business.

Finally, the college points out that the West Kootenay is
not served by permanent representatives of the Ministry of
Industry and Small Business Development or the Federal

development needs of the West Kootenay,” college principal
Leo Perra says in a letter to the ministry.

Perra says that because of the college's regional profile,
it can “play a catalytic and supportive role to this entrepren-
eurial objective.”

The college says it does not intend to replace economic
development programs already in place in the Central
Kootenay and Kootenay Boundary regional districts, but

and to Canadian lifestyles, a news release from the
Department of Regional Industrial Expansion says.
In_the release, Ken Sunquist, director of export
information for the Department’ of External Affairs, des-
cribes Canada Export Trade Month as*“a co-operative
program which involves exporters, industry associations,
governments, labor and the academic community right

“The objective is to increase export awareness and
emphasize the link between exports and Canada’s

The regional economic development offices would assist
businesses to locate in the region, while the college's centre
would help the businesses overcome problems.

For instance, the college suggests its centre would help
entrepreneurs prepare business proposals, including things

“These services are delivered from the Okanagan and
East Kootenay on an itinerant basis,” says the college.

The centre would hire a manager and administrative
assistant/secretary and initially operate out of rental space.

It would later establish a permanent facility on the
Castlegar campus.

An advisory board would be appointed through the
Selkirk College Board to direct the centre. The advisory
board would consist of successful owner/operators, senior

and of the financial
community, and municipal ‘couneils.

Both Castlegar council and Central Kootenay regional
board have supported the proposal.

are about to lose one of the oldest, and to many, most
fondly remembered service groups in the area.

After many, many years of teaching woodcraft and
camping skills and trying to instill a sense of community
responsibility, it appears that Scouting is about to die in
north Castlegar.

Personally, I don't believe that this is due to lack of
interest from the boys. Surely there must be more than
one boy of Cub age (seven to 10) and two boys of Scout
age (11-14) in all of north Castlegar who are interested in
learning the skills taught by Scouting, and the joys of
sharing a common adventure. Yet, this is the total
number who showed up for the registration held on Sept.
9. :

I do believe that this poor showing is due in large
part to a general apathy shown by parents and adults of
this area. This is also reflected inthe hard time we have
in ining and r ing good ip for these
boys.

It is far easier to sit.in front of your TV set and
complain about how the younger generation is spoiled
and pampered, than to get out and do your part to ‘make
sure that this is not the case.

Whatever the newest generation of children is to
become, we as adults must accept-a large portion of the
blame or credit, as the case may be.

In these days of video games and computers many

friendly competition. Given the opportunity, I am sure
that many boys would learn lifelong skills and interests,

- but without us, the adults of the community being willing
to share our time and knowledge, none of this is possible.
The’ kids can't do it on their own.

The Boy Scouts of Canada has many very good
programs for the education and training of adults, so
saying you have no skills to teach is not a valid excuse.
Many interesting courses and programs are offered
locally. Most of all, the programs (Beavers, Cubs, and
Scouts) are enjoyable and give a real sense of satisfaction
for boy and adult alike.

But we are not giving up. We are holding another
registration at the Scout Hall on Thursday at-7:30 p.m.
Please remember, the boys can't do it on their own. Even
if you can’t help out at all, you can still do your part by
getting out and registering your boy.

The cost at $35 is a bargain, and in cases of real
need, help can be arranged, so that none who want to
participate need be left out.

Please support your local Scouting organization in its
attempts to help build an active and responsible youth for
this area.
